NE\YS \ FROM COUNCIL BLUFFS Judge * of the District Court Out Off the Professional Juror's ' Snap , MADE A NEW RULE F01 PAYING FEES Hereafter Twenty.Four Hears Wilt Conntl- tuto n Dny , llcglnntng nt Midnight Itcc * ulntlons for Drawing Juries 1'rc- icrlliril by the NOT La\r. Judges A. B. Thornell , N. W. Macy , W. I. Smith and W. R. Green have taken an action within the past few days which Is likely to fill the souls of the professional Jurors with great gobs of woe. There has always been something of a contest between the Jurors and the county government to sec on the one hand how much could be grabbed , and on the other how much docking could bo done. One of the favorite schemes of the Jurors was to stay out , when deliberating on a case until after had been made of the state law , an extra day's fees would be drawn and the Jurors would go home and sleep the sleep of the righteous , with the knowledge of having worked the county to a turn. The other day the four Judges of the district court got to gether and decided to make a new construc tion of the law. They drew up their decision In writing , and It is now pasted In the Jury pay roll book , where County Clerk Reed can spring It on kickers with ease. It provides that hereafter a day , In the meaning of the statute governing Jurors' fees , shall consist of twenty-four hours , com mencing at midnight and ending at the next midnight. Jurors on the regular panel will be paid at III ? rate of $2 a day , exclusive of Sundays , when they are not serving , and shall have no extra pay for night work. When excused for a week or more they shall draw no fees tor the time during which th.y are excused , but only mllegao for returning - turning from home after such vacation. Talesmen are to receive $2 for each calendar day spent on duty. This new construction will make It much more Inconvenient for the Jurors to bleed the county for $2 apiece by working nights. It will be possible for them to draw an extra day's pay only by continuing their cessions past midnight , and there la not much doubt that the action of the Judges will cut off quite an expense to the county. HOW JITRORS WILL DE DRAWN. Tlu next time a Jury is drawn It will bo under the new law , and every voter of Pot- tawattamle county between the ages of 21 and C5 will be entered in a grand lottery , which may result In his getting a $2 a day Job at the county's expense. The new law provides that the assessor of each township shall report to the auditor and the township clerk a list of all qualified voters of his township every three years. ' The auditor , clerk and recorder shall hold a meeting for the purpose of hearing the testimony of those who claim exemptions from Jury duty , and all names of those found by them to be tx- empt shall be stricken from the list. The rest of the names are to bo written on pieces of paper , which shall be folded seas as to conceal the name It contains and put Into a large box. Then a drawing will be had , at which the three officials above men- tloneJ shall preside. One of them shall draw a ticket out of the box and hand It to the second man , who shall read It aloud. This process Is to bo repeated until twenty-four grand jurors and a like number of petit Jurors have been drawn. Notices are then to bo sent out to the persons drawn , and If any of them fall to appear they shall be sub ject to a fine of $25 and cost : ? . The tickets not drawn out arc then to be sealed up and laid one side until the next drawing. The tickets drawn are to bo put Into another box , from which names shall be drawn In case a contingency should arise where the big box should not contain suffi cient names to make a Jury panel. If , on the trial of a case , It should be found that the regular panel does not contain enough names to fill the requirements the big box U to bo brought out and the clerk , In the presence of the court , Is to draw enough names to fill out the required number. The sheriff Is then to serve notices oil the men whoso names were drawn. PENALTIES ARE SEVERE. The law prescribes a penalty of not less than six months nor more than a year In Jail for any county official who knowingly disobeys any of Its provisions , and he shall lose his ofilco In addition to suffering the Imprisonment. The new law will make It Impossible for any one man to servo more than once In three years In a county with so largo a population as Pottawattamle , and will alio prevent the picking up of a Jury from the spectators , as had frequently been done under the old law. This last fact may result In some Inconvenience at times , as , for Instance , when U should be discovered Just before the trial that the panel had been exhausted. It would then bo necessary to postpone the trU ! until the sheriff should have time to go out and find the men whose names had been drawn.

Deputy Marshal Fowler and Detectives Vlz- zard and Miller of the Union Pacific Railway company have been looking up a burglary case and Howard E. Blair and George and Frank Kanada ere now in Jail , charged with breaking and entering a freight car. Two other boys , Olakeloy and Donahue , have left town , It Is said , to avoid arrest , but they will undoubtedly be caught In time , together with other boys whose names are as yet not known to the officers. Among the stuff stolen were four kegs and two half kegs of beer , $9.75 worth of tobacco and $5 worth of cigars , making the total value of the plunder about $35. Some of the tobacco was found at the Kanada man sion , on High street near Thirteenth avenue. An empty tobacco box was found In the gas company's yard , where the boys had thrown It. The Blair boy Is supposed to have stolen two crates of eggs. In addition to breaking open the car the gang Is thought to have cut a hole In the window of the Union Pacific freight depot on Tenth avenue and made . way with some of the property stored there. "The officers who are working on the case ' arc continually finding more stolen stuff. The I'eerleti Icuiporunre Drink.

The extreme heat of yesterday and last night did not prevent a large audience from filling the Presbyterian church to hear Mr. Plenon. The subject he choie was a very approprlata one for 10 hot a night. H was a sermon on hell. Mr , Plerson did not at tempt a description of the old-fashioned tor ments that were commonly portrayed with such startling realism In the year * gone by. But ho evidently believes , and earnestly preached , that there Is n. heaven and a hell , and there U no pasting from one to the other , nnd that there Is but one way to enter the first and avoid the last , and that Is by accept * Ini the salvation offered freely by Christ , the Son of God. Quite a number expressed a de termination to accept the offer. There Is one feature of the Plerson meetIngs - Ings that Is worthy of special notice ! That the majority ot those who have thus far pub licly expressed an Intention of becoming Christians are adults. Mr. Plerson lays he wishes no one to be carried away by enthusi asm , but to earnestly think and solemnly de cide , each one for himself. There are lots of new things In vapor stoves for the public to experiment on. Don't waste ; your money that way. Buy a Quick Meal or a Reliable of Cole & Cole.

AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA Chief or Police Scrr'1 Cloilnc U | > OnliTH on a Number of smloiMi Kpi'iiam. Some of the saloon keepers had an Idea that Mayor Johnston was bluffing when he notified them that liquor license money was due and payable at noon yesterday , and that all saloons kept open after that hour would be closed by the police. The mayor meant Just what he said and kept his word to the letter. A couple of years ago saloon keepers gave the city treasurer the go-by and operated their places of business for several months after the 1st day of May without paying any license. Complaint was made at that time by saloon men who had paid their money , and Mayor Johnston decided that there should be no such cause for complaint this year. ActIng - Ing upon orders Captain Council started out shortly after noon yeserday to close the liquor houses which remained open and had not paid. The visit of Connell was a surprise to n number nnd several protests against closing were registered. Those ordered closed were : Max Lenz , Twenty-fourth nnd A streets ; Tom Beard , Twenty-fourth and F ; J. Birch , Twenty-fourth and II : Ed Beloit , Twenty-fourth and K ; Frank Humpert , Twenty-fourth and L ; V. Plvonka , Twenty- fourth and L ; D. Murphy. Twenty-fourth and N ; C.

Most of the persons served with notices by the police made some sort of excuse and claimed that It would bo "all right" If they could only see Mayor Johnston. The mayor no doubt anticipated n raid on bis office and discreetly left for his farm , where he spent the afternoon setting out rosebushes. It the saloons mentioned are not closed by this morning complaints will be- filed In the po- llco court against the proprietors for selling liquor without license. .Mnglo ( , lty < ; o l | > .

SHADOWED BKOWN Furnished His Slayer with Information of the Couple's Whereabout * . GOVERNOR BROWN TAKES A HAND I'roitciitlon Avert thnl the Killing ; o ( Arch llrotrnVn Port of it Deep * I.nld I'lot to Clot Him Out nt tlia'tjr. . LOUISVILLE , May S. The Courier-Jour nal prints the following : "Tho sensational ending of the Gordon double killing Is not ovrr yet by half. Tim prosecution will attempt to prove that Arcn Dlxon Brown's death was due to a deep laid plot to assassinate him ; n trap , as the prose cution believes , foMcred and planned by one who , for reasons best known to himself , was afraid to do the work , and used Gordon ns the tool to carry out his designs. "These statements come directly from the prosecution. "Governor Brown has reason to believe that his son's coming to Louisville on the day ot the tragedy and his assignation with Mrs. Gordon was known to a man In Louis ville. This Loulsvlllo man , the prosecution claims , notified Gordon that his wlfo was to meet Brown , and 'actively assisted in a foul assassination. ' The prosecution further says that the name of the man whn 'acted the spy * Is known , and that he will have to be produced In court. " In a private letter last night Governor Brown Insisted that the man referred to be brought Into court on an attacnment. The man who , as the prosecution believes , piloted Gordon to the house ot Lucy Smith , Is a college - lego chum of Gordon's and was married In Frankfort. Mr. James A. Scott , the Frankfort attor ney employed by Governor Brown to prose cute the case , Is a fearless , capable lawyer and has the reputation of doing what he bc- llevea to be his duty at all hazards. He says : "Governor Brown sent for me yes terday afternoon. Ho explained his views and position In the matter , and employed mete to prosecute the case In the examining trial. I want to say that Governor Brown never authorized any statements that lie would not prosecute the case , nor did he ever dream of granting a pardon to Gordon , as has been stated. "Before deciding on the step Governor Brown took counsel with a number of Inti mate friends from all over the state. Ho came to the conclusion that It was duo the memory of his son that there should be a full and fair Investigation of all the facts ; not necessarily for the purpose of prosecu tion , but for the purpose of enabling him and the olllccrs of the law to determine whether there ought to be a further prosecution of the case. He arrived at this conclusion after satisfying himself thr.t his son did not seduce Mrs. Gordon and that Mrs. Gordon had no reason to believe that he had led her from the path of virtue. He was convinced that Gor don must have known that his wife was dis sipated , reckless and Imprudent , If not an unchaste woman. "Governor Brown Is now firmly convinced that a well-planned trap was laid for his son and that his son was selected for the sacri fice out of a large number of like offenders and that information was furnished of his coming by some one In Frankfort to another man In Louisville , who , for some motive , advised and actively assisted In what Gov ernor Brown considers n foul assassination. "In regard to the others who were like offenders with Arch Brown , I will say for the sake.of Mrs. Gordon's relatives , who are all excellent people , and highly esteemed by Governor Brown and his counsel , the gov ernor would shrink from any attack upon her character , but would prefer to throw the veil of charity over all her acts , especially as she Is dead. The future will determine whether It will be necessary to further blacken the character of Mrs. Gordon In order to show the defendant's thorough knowledge of It. We do not know as yet what the defense will try to prove , and until we do know , I will bo unable to answer that question. If necessary we will show that others were equally guilty , but I do not think wo will have to do this. I think the developments will be surprising to some pee ple. " The plans of the prosecution In the Gor don case has taken a sensational turn In the Issuance of a subpoena for Webster G.-uhy. Attorneys engaged In the prosecution have taken this step upon the theory that Cjaztay Is the man who telephoned to Gordon and who shadowed nnd located the couple. Mr. Gazlay Is one of the Jew who was received by Gordon at the Jail. SloieinrntH of derail Mrnmrrs Jlny 8. At Liverpool Arrived Catalonia , from Boston. At Southampton Arrived Trave , from New York.
