Ms tloor , tlraw a dead line ten feet from

policemen dteppcd ncrosn It to evict him
there would ba a strange Indian face In
heaven.
A large number of Tender people went to
the Omaha reiervntlon today to attend the
distribution Of $21.000 among the Omshan.

latter tribe , and the I'enderltca who have
business dealing * with the Indians generally
take along ready coin upon these occcaslons
to cash the pay check given to red men by
the federal paymaster. The Omahas council
also held a meeting on the reservation

matter * of Interest to the tribe.
uunACii nncoMiNO WIDER.
The situation tonight Indicates that the
breach between Captain Heck's force ? and
the county authorities Is as wide as ever
and citizens arc JUIed with apprehension.
Captain Heck Is doubttois awaiting fresh ad
vices from Washington before adding an
other chapter to a celebrated case. This
has given rise to the general belief In the
rumor on the streets today that Captain
Heck , realizing the resistance that would
greet Indian police and the necessity of
having a detachment of regulars to enforce
his orders , has asked Washington to Invoke
Influence to strengthen him with two com
panies of federal troops for the emergency
which now confronts him nnd which calls
for action or a humiliating back down.
Captain Heck has announced since his
return from Lincoln that he will adhere to
his determination to evict all tenants who
do not comply with government regulations
at once. It Is anticipated that he will at
tempt evictions May 1 with Indian police ;
that the settlers will resist and then tha
Indian agent will again demand troops to
carry out his Instructions from Washington
If they arc In thn meantime denied him.
Sheriff Mullln Is considering whether or
not ho could persuade Governor Holcimb to
call out the mllltla In case national troops
nro arrayed against him In what , he con
siders the discharge of his dutlei as sheriff
of Thurston county.
WASHINGTON. April 20. The supreme
court today decided to advance the case of
the Flonrnoy Live Stock company against
Deck , nlhcli Involves the rights of settlers
on Indian reservation lands In Nebraska , to
the 21st of October next.

PORTLAND , Ore. , April 23. "Doc" Daven
port , the counterfeiter , todjy pleaded guilty
In the United States district court to the
charge of having moulds In his possession
and of coining tpurlous dollars. Ho made
the following statement : "Last December a
man giving his name as. Charles French
called at my house and said ho would like to
remain several weeks. One djy ho asked me
how to make counterfeit dollars , knowing I
understood the business because I had served
a term for the offense eight years ago. lie
gave me 50 cents with which I bought plas
ter and solder. 1 made the moulds and a few
coins with them. French told me he only
wanted to learn out of curiosity , nnd I did
not sec any harm In showing him. Not long
afterward I was arrested on this charge. Now
the man French was simply employed by the
special agent of the treasury , N. U. Harris ,
to corner me. "
Judge Llelllnger demanded an explanation
from the district attorney. The latter said
French had not Instigated Davenport , but
that he simply caught Davenport In the act.
Hut this explanation did not satisfy Judge
Uelllnger. Said ho : "I will Investigate this
matter. Sentence will not be passed this term.
Detectives of the government have no right
to aid In the commission of crime and come
Into this court and ask that the criminal be
punished. I want it understood that per
sons who go about Instigating crlmo will not
find their business successful In this court. "

It was Impossible to get advices from the

ClllLUH E.V'S V.lllXI t'A L.
Rarely has there- been a more beautiful
series of animated pictures presented on the
stage than those given last night at Boyd's
theater , It was the children's carnival , un
der the direction ol Mr. and Mrs. Morand ,
and the crowded theater broke Into loud applause
plause- many times over as some little girl
of boy would give a dance or a group of
prettily gowned misses would break Into
rythmlc motion at a signal from the leader
of the orchestra and execute a series of
pretty posturlngs , grace , beauty , unconscious
childish actions combining to make tha
tableaux all the more picturesque.
There were a number of young misses
who quite took the home by storm , their
character and fancy dancing being the equal
of these who follow the profession as a
means of livelihood. While the program was
long , It was made so by the array of youth
ful talent which Mr. Morand had to select
from , and the wisdom of the selection was
shown on a number of occasions throughout
the evening.
It would be hard to particularize-
dances that pleased the audience most , for
In the general excellence of the ensemble
all reflected credit upon those who have had
their1 te-rpslchorean training In charge during
the past year , but the numbers that seemed
to please most were Les VIolettes , La Sllva ,
Spanish dance , Highland Fling , Skipping
Reps dance. In which Eugenie Morand
shone to splendid advantage ; Grandma's
minuet , by Vivian Rector , who recited the
dainty story and executed the stately move
ments of long ago with all the charni- a
grande dame. The serpentine dance of Hazel
Cahn , the Paderewakl minuet by Eugenie
Whltmore , the pretty snow drop dlvertlse-
ment by Carmellta Chase , the minor dance
by Bessie Brady and Laura Congdon , Les
Plerronnettes and the scarf dance were as
dainty as could be conceived.
While there may bo those who cavil over
teaching children the evolutions attendant
upon dancing , there can be no gainsaying the
fact that the education received In deport
ment. In the management of the muscles , and
in the gracefulness which Is so eszentlal to
good dancing. Is quite a factor In develop
ing and strengthening the growing child ,
The little acts of courtesy , the deference
and the real Joy shown by the children over
the triumph of their little associates were
decided features In the perfection ot tht
entertainment.

Yesterday morning J. W. Orr , attorney
for the Mlssourl'Pacinc , filed with the clerk
of the circuit court a writ of error In the
case of Fitzgerald against the Missouri Pa
cific and the Fitzgerald & Mallory Construc
tion company , granted by Justice Urewer ;
also a supersedeas bond approved by Justice
Ilrewer In the sum of $625.000 , and a citation
to the plaintiff , defendant In error In that
case , notifying them that the cate was In
the supreme court of the United States ,
wherein certain constitutional questions
would bo paBMd upon.
This case grows out of the construction of
some GOO miles of railroad In Kansas , part
of the Missouri Pacific , by the Fitzgerald &
Mallory Construction company. John Fitz
gerald , on his own behalf , began a suit
against the Missouri Pacific and the Fitzger
ald & Mallory Construction company for an
accounting In 18S8 In the Lancaster county
court , and by the defendant It was removed
to the United States court. The state court
refused to approve the bond or order the re
moval of the case , but under the act of 1887
the supreme court was given the authority to
order such a transfer , and not the state
court. The ca ovas docketed , and on motion
the plaintiff asked to have the cause remanded
to the state court , which was presented
to Justice Miller nnd Judge Dundy and was
overruled. Afterward a plea of abatement
was filed to the Jurisdiction , which was pre
sented to Justice Brewer and Judge Dundy
and overruled. Then a referee was appointed
to hear proofs , being an action for an ac
counting , and at a subsequent term of court
the referee reported , finding In favor of the
Missouri Pacific for $163,000. On motion to
confirm the report , Judge Caldwell remanded
tha case to the state court , The case came
on for trial and a decree of $450,000 was en
tered against the Missouri Pacific. Doth par
ties carried the case up to the supreme court
of Nebraska. The Judges could not agree
among themselves , and when the state su
preme court commission was created the
case went to it for an opinion. Commis
sioner Hyan wrote the opinion , which was
adopted , granting a decree against the Mis
souri Pacific for $764,000 and Interest. This
was subsequently scaled to $300,900. Then
came the attorneys ( or tne plaintiff and filed
an attorney's Hen for $150,000 , and notwith
standing the fact that six of the more prom
inent lawyers In Nebraska testified that a
liberal fee would Hot exceed $50,000 , John II.
Ames , the referee. , made a finding In favor
of the attorneys for $120,000 , $2,000 legiti
mate expenses , and allowed $106.35 to the
stenographer hp reported the evidence of
twelve witnesses , making 108 pages of testi
mony. With the record this case goes to the
supreme court.

HE SIMPLY WANTS HIS SHARE.
Mr. r.omnx ShUes I'oiltton of Union Pacific
Itngnrdlng I'.llij Inlmicls Hiilneit .
There has been considerable speculation
recently as to the growing weakness of the
Western Immigrant , pool and charges have
been made that the Union Pacific has been re
ceiving more than Its Just proportion of the
business done through Ellis Islands. Mr.
Lomax , general passenger1 agent of the
" " last week and
"Overland , was In Chicago
Incidentally looked into the rumors that have
been received with great credence by com
peting lines as to the business which the
Union Pacific had received out of Ellis Isl
and and he was able to spike the guns of the
opposition by agreeing to make good any
disproportion charged as existing. The num
ber of tickets In excess of his allotment by
agreement Is considerably less than twenty
a week since last June , and he informed
Chairman Caldwell that his road would take
Just that many tickets less per week until
things were evened up.
Mr. Lomax returned from Chicago Sun
day and to a Bee man stated that the policy
created for It by The Uco relative to the
formation of a local San Francisco associa
tion was entirely correct. He stated that he
had received Mr. Btubbs' telegram , asking If
the Union Pacific would Join the Southern
Pacific in a local agreement and had wired
Mr. Stubbs that the Union Pacific would only
be too glad to Join any association that would
tend to the conservation of revenue. He
only exacted that all the lines
should Join the proposed San Fran
cisco association nnd that an effort
be made to maintain the agreement when
once signed.
As to the rumor of general demoralization
In rates , he thought It was purely a figment
of the Imagination , although he admitted
that considerable manipulation was being
done by some of the lines cast of the Mis
souri river. "Altogether , " said he. "rates
are being maintained pretty generally. The
San Francisco situation Is reported to ba
bad , although our representative there , Mr.
Hitchcock , does not coincide with these
rumors of general scalping. It Is a pleasure
to me to know that the anticipated break
In rates which was predicted when the
Union Pacific was called upon to protect Its
territory against outside competition by put
ting In reduced rates , for certain dates , has
failed to materialize. We- are confounding
our competitors , and , having once signed
the agreement of the Western Lines Pas
senger association , we are adhering to that
agreement rigidly , "
On Petition of tlu > llnnilhnldnrs.
CHICAGO , April 20. The proceedings ta
oust from the receivership of the Chicago
& Northern Pacific Messrs. Morgan J. How-
land and Van Norden were begun before
Judge Jenkins today. The petition filed by
the bondholders' committee made no charge
against the receivers. It simply set forth
that the petition represents 1.14,000,000 out ol
the $28,000.000 Issue of bonds , and that the
bondholders believed they were not properly
represented In the receivership and thai
their Interests were Jeopardized. The bond
holders suggest A Lawrence Hopkins ol
New York us successor to the present re
ceivers. Senator Spooner , representing the
other side , proposed the removal of the

ST. LOUIS , April 20. Today In the United
States circuit court at St. Louis Judge Cald
well granted an application for the separa
tion of the Colorado Midland from the Santa
Fe system. It was the result of an amica
ble arrangement. A. F. Walker , John J.
McCook and J. C. Wilson resigned as re
ceivers , and In their stead Ilniry Hlttuo was
appointed. There were present Receivers A.
F. Walker , George H. Peck , counsel for the
Santa Fe receivers , nnd also for the Colorado
rado Midland ; 10 , H. Kcnna. counsel for the
St. Louis & San Francisco ; II. T. Hogers ,
counsel for the Centnl Trust compiny of
Now York , representing the bondholders'
committee , and C. 13. Smith , also counsel
for the bondholders. Judge Caldwell fixed
Mr. Hlstuo's bond at $25,000. The Colorado
Midland has a total mileage of ) 350 , tui ! main
line running from Colorado Springs to New
castle , 233 miles. There nro a number of
branches. The road was chartered In 1883
and opened for traffic five years later. The
entire capital stock Is owned or controlled
by the Santa Fo , and since- May , 1893 , the
Santa Fe has operated the road directly.
"There Is nothing In this , " said Receiver
A. T. Walker last night , "beyond what ap
pears on the surface. The Santa Fe reor
ganization plan , which was recently pro
mulgated , did not Include the Colorado Mid
land , although provision was made for bring
ing that road within the fold at some future
time. Now , the Midland people think this
Is a good chance for them to show their
strength and operate their line Independently.
We of the Santa Fe- have no objections. The
two roads will maintain friendly relations
and the change may or may not be bene
ficial. "

SAN FHANCISCO , April 29. Rising with
the fetid smells In the heart of Chinatown
Sunday there was a babel of shrill voices
that could be heard for blocks and a great
crowd of plg-talled , bluo-bloused and greasy
looking Chinamen was fairly wedged on two
corners on Dupont street , where Washington
and Jackson streets Intersect. So dense was
the excited mass that It blocked the street
and compelled the cable line to suspend
operations , pending a clearing of the way.
The trouble was over four Chinese placards
at each of the points named , evidently a
manifesto Issued by highbinders , and which
may be productive of a war In the Chinese
quarters. This was the text of the placards :
"TAKE NOTICE The white devils sent
Into Chinatown by Chief of Police Crowley
have lately been held In check. They done
no more blackmailing. We are only relieved
from one class of bloodsuckers to be af
flicted with another. The captain and eight
men appointed by the Six Companies to keep
order are now worse than ever the white
devils were. They are blackmailing the wo
men , the opium sellers and the lottery
games. None of us are safe from them and
It Is tlmo they were done away with. We
havj to put up with the white devils , but
wo > von't put up with the Six Companies'
devils. "
Some time ago the Chinese Six Companies
organized a police force of Its own. It Is
composed of nine men a captain , sergeant
and seven patrolmen. These were selected
for their fighting qualities and trustworthi
ness. They must be brave men so as to
face the highbinders without fear when It
comes to a fight and they must be trustwor
thy so as to command the respect of the
Chinese community. It Is this little force
that the circulars posted on the telegraph
poles accuse of blackmail.
The police could not disperse the crowd
until finally ono officer tore down the pla
cards.

Mrs.V. . T. Johnson of li&W Sewnrd

nnd Is agreeably surprised at what It
will do. She says :
" \Ve have only welt water , which I IKS-

I have tried all preparations , but none
proved satisfactory until I was fortun
ate enough last week to set and try thu

It my clothes are nicer than they ever
were before and no hud effects result

none of them are anywhere near e.qual

Mrs. Meyer of (110 ( Xorth 17th street ,
the wife of the well known engineer ,
said to n reiwrter , In substance :
"I like Kirk's Ualn Water Maker over
so much and I have never used anything
that gave near the satisfaction that
Haln Water Maker does. It makes
the clolhes so soft and nice and leaves
the hands in a nice , sofe condition. I
am more than pleased with It. "
Haln Water Maker Is most essential
for laundry work of all kinds and Is
to be used in. nil waters. It ajso breaks
hard water Instantly , bringing till
waters to a soft and velvety consistency.

prevents shrinkage. Colored or printed
goods , such as calicos , etc. , will not run
or fade in water prepared with Haln
Water Maker. Kor the dishes and gen
eral washing purposes It is most es
sential. It Is also exquisite for the
hath.
