UN
United Slates Senator William V. Allen
came down from his homo In Madison yvs-
tcrday and wag at tlie'l'axton for a few
hours. He la on his way to the Indian ter
ritory , an a member of the senate commit
tee on Indian affairs , to Investigate some
complaints that have liccn made rcsardlnK
the condition of affairs there. "I had In
tended. " said the senator to a Hoe rep-
resvntntlvc. "to pay a visit to several , If
not all of the tribes , but my tlmo will be
too limited and It Is not. likely that I will
visit any except the Osageg. "
Asked concerning the exposition and Its
prospects , the senator ald : "There 1.1
every rcniiim to be encouraged If the people
ple of Omaha will only do their duty , and
I am sure they will. They have undertaken
an enterprise of vast magnitude and which
will have far-reaching effects greater , 1
think , than most of your people Imagine.
I think they have the push and enterprise
to carry It to a successful termination. It
would bo too bad If It failed to reach Us
full magnitude or the perfection which It
Is capable of attaining through any over-
Right , and I do not think It will. The prin
cipal danger Is not that the people of Omaha
and the transmltsteslppl country cannot or
do not Intend to do everything that Is nec
essary to Its success , but that the enter
prise will be crippled by delay.
"It Is very essential that the conditions
precedent to securing the government aid
be compiled with before congress convenes
and that the secretary of the treasury be
ronvlnrrd that the necessary amount of
lionn fide stock has been subscribed. The
rwiptifinitn nt itint nfflplnl ibnt the nspocla-
tlon has compiled with the conditions pre
scribed by the act passed at the last ses
sion of congress Is essential before any
thing eon lie done toward nccurlng a epe-
rlfli' appropriation for the government ex
hibit. This must be secured before other
Htates or Individuals ran be expected to do
anything toward being represented. It Is.
In fart , the thing around which the whole
onlerprlae hinges , and the wooner the spe
clllc appropriation of the government can
bo secured and the government olllclals
Htart to work on the government building
nml exhibit I he better It will be. In fact ,
It Is essential that this be done at an early
date.
PROPOSES TO ACT KAHI.Y.
"It Is my Intention , provided the man
agers of the exposition make the proper
showing before the secretary of the treasury
to present In ( he- senate , at the earliest pos
sible date an amendment to the urgent defi
ciency bill appropriating $200.000 for the gov
ernment building and exhibit at the exposi
tion. This Is one of the very first meaaure.t
reported to congress and usually appears
within a fnw days after the opening of the
session and very seldom falls to be enaeted
Into law before the Christmas holidays
When once offered It will he referred to the
committee of which Senator Thurston Is the
chairman , ami he can bo depended upon tr
take care of It there. In the appropriation
committee anil In the conference committee
It will reiilro watching , but I have every
faith that In case the people who ore back
of the enterprise hero make the proper show
ing and make It In the proper time that the
amendment can he carried through.
"If this cannot ho done It means the measure -
uro must go through the channels of ordi
nary legislation , which Involves delay.
In this Instance delay would not only ho an
noying , but would cripple the enterprise. "
I.KniSI.ATUUR AM , IUOI1T.
"What do you think Is the prospect of the
coming session of ( he legislature making an
appropriation for n slate exhibit at the ex
position ? " was asked.
"I do not see any reason to doubt that the
coming session of the legislature will nuke
nmplo provision for the representation of th
state In a manner commensurate with the
Importance and the magnitude of the enter
prise. I think I know pretty well the feel
ing of the people of the state , regardless of
party afllllatlon , on this question , and It Is
that the exposition Is of prime Importance
to the state and all of the transmlsslcslpp !
country. There Is absolutely no doubt In
my mind that the coming session of the leg
islature will make a liberal appropriation
for the purpose of having the state repre
sented and that the politics of the majority
of that body will not enter Into considera
tion In the matter. I know n great many of
the members elect and they are level-headed
business men who will look on this question
as a simple business proposition and they
arc just as much Interested In the success
of the enterprise as anybody In the city of
Omaha.
"You can say to the people of Omaha for
mo that In my opinion they can banish their
fears en that score , and I think I speak
from n thorough knowledge of the men who
will compose the coming legislature. The
thing for them to do Is to get to work and
get matters In shape at once to make the
proper showing to congress , and It that Is
done they can bo assured that the exposition
Is far along on the road to success. "
New so-called remedies spring up every
day like mushrooms ; but the people still
cling to Dr. Hull's Cough Syrup.

AMUSEMENTS.
Mr. Whlteslde's engagement at the Crclgh-
ton terminated last night with a performance
of "Othello. " The event was notable In that
the star for the first time essayed the role
of lago ; that his leading man , Mr. Herman ,
made his first appearance In the title role
and that the Desdemona of Miss Moore was
likewise a new one to the stage. So ambi
tious an attempt and withal GO successful an
achievement , merits more careful considera
tion than Is possible In the brief space of
tlmo between the end of the play and the
going to press of the morning paper. For
this reason a. detailed notice of these most
recent Othello , logo and Desdemona Is put
ufl until the Sunday Issue , when their salient
points can bo more adequately treated.
Many people went to one of Iloyd's bar
gain day inatliu't-K yesterday afternoon , not
knowing what they might see and perhaps
expecting to he amused by the Incongruity
of any actor In contrast to the famous Im
personation of the vagabond of , Falling
Water. The audience was ugreeahly sur
prised. however , and found great pleasure
In Frank Llndon's thoroughly good Imita
tion , as of course It must Do , of Jefferson
as Hip Van Winkle. The "business * wao
slightly changed In some places and of the
support Mrs. Henry Vandenlioff merits es
pecial mention for her Mulshed method. In
the evening "The Prisoner , , of Algiers. "
written by Frank Llndon , .who plays the
leading role therein , was graciously re
ceived by a fair nudlcncc. It Is a story full
of Incident , but unoriginal In Its plot and
stilted In Its lines. The name of Miss Juno
Uarrctt appears on the program In capital
letters and she almost lives up to the repu
tation thus given her.
This evening "The Count of Monte Crlsto"
Is the bill.
Charles Frohman's production of "Thor
oughbred" will be n novelty to local play
goers at the Crelghton tonight and the re
mainder of the week with a Saturday matl-
nce.
nce.This Is the comedy which ran so long at
the Garrlck theater. Now York , last season ,
and was ncaln brought forward there at the
opening of the present season In August.
It Is presented by n company that has won
much praise , the leading comedian of the
cast being the popular Thomas Q. Sea-
brooke. The play Is from the pen of Ralph
Lnmley , who wrote "Aunt Jack" and other
light and merry plccen. Besides Its purely
comic Incidents the play contains several
pretty love scenes that run through the
piece. One of these concerns a bright
young American and a clever but proud
English girl. Thu fun of the play depends
largely upon the sudden change In the habits
of an Innocent old mayor , who has always
been strongly opposed to horse racing. Sev
eral comic Bongs arc Introduced Into the
piece. One of them , written by George
UroFsmlth , Is a burlesque ballad entitled
"Keep the llaby Warm. " Another song ,
entitled "Our 'Appy Little 'Udson Illver
'Ome , " gives a notion of the English Idea
of the American darky plantation song. With
Mr. Seabrooko In the company are such ca
pable players as Edgar Davenport , Isabel
Evesson. H. M. Pitt , Magglo Holloway Fisch
er. William Norrls. Charles W. Butler , Maud
Whlto and several others. A tallyho roach
scene Is one of the novel featured of this
Play.
A new starring venture Is always watched
with Interest by theater-goers , and the
launching of Mathcws and Ilulgcr this sea
son has attracted more than ordinary atten
tion , by reason of the unquestioned popu
larity of these young comedians anil the
additional fact that they are Introduced
under most favorable auspices. A preten
tious farce comedy production Is "At Gay
Coney Island. " the play In which they will
bo seen. A carload of scenery Is employed ,
and among other features a comprehensive
view of New York's famous outing place will
bo shown. This Is the first attempt of the
playwright to use Coney Inland on the stage.
A largo and capable company of comedians
and an exceptionally pretty female contin
gent are asMiicd. The management of Uoyd'n
announces this play for four nights anil
matlneo Wednesday , commencing next Sun
day night.
"The Prisoner of SJendn. " a most enter
taining drama , contains the elements of romance -
manco conceived In a whimsical mood , but
carried forward seriously. Involving splendid
episodes of heroism and adventure , moon
light escapades , bravo riding through foresta ,
haud-.o-liniul combats , and perilous hap
penings which have been compressed Into
a play of absorbing Interest.
The advent of the nlay at the Crelghton
theater Monday and Tuesday nights next ,
presented by Daniel Frohman's Superb Ly
ceum company .la looked forward to with
more than ordinary Interest. There being
u prologue and four acts the curtain will
rlso at S o'clock sharp. The prologue hulng

The new Hoard of County Commissioners
will organize on the second Tuesday In
January next , the statutes providing that
the regular meeting of the board shall be ,
held on that date. That day. next year ,
will fall on January 12. The board , as It
will then bo constituted , Will have- three
republican and two democratic members.
CommtaslortTH StenbcrB , Klcrstead and Os-
Irom will constitute the republican major
ity and Ccmmluslonera Hector and llofeldt
will form the democratic minority. The
republican members nil live In the city of
Omaha ; Mr. Hector Is a resident of South
Omaha , and Mr. llofeldt Is a farmer , re-
sldlns In iciliorn : ; precinct , In the western
part of the county.
It has been a custom with the board to
make the cnlor member the chairman , and
tills rule has obtained , almost without ex
ception , for several years. Under this
procedure Commissioner StcnberR would suc
ceed Chairman Jenkins and would wield the
gavel during the ensuing term , hut therb
nrc certain signs In the sky which Indicate
that the old rule will be honored In the
breach rather than In the observance when
the cards are shi.tllcd for the next deal. It
Is said that Mr. Stenbcrg Is more Inclined
to retain the three committees of which
ho has been chairman during the past year ,
viz : Finance , charity and poor farm , and
shift the nirr.tlo of chairman to the shoul
ders of Commissioner Klerstcad. Mr. Hector -
tor la known to have a very strong "hanker-
Ing" for the chairmanship of the two com-
mlltois which have been presided over by
Mr. Williams during the past year roads
and bridges and ho Is also understood to uc
favorable to making Mr. Klorstcad chair
man of the board. Mr. Klerstcad has not
made known his preferences , but the posi
tion of chairman Is regarded as the most
desirable on the board on account of the
freedom fiom committee work.
There Is another Inlluence at work , ho'v-
cevr , which may affect the result If It gath
ers any strength. One of the outgoing mem
bers of the board Is making a vigorous cam
paign for himself as superintendent of the
poor farm , and to that end has arranged a
slnto which completely smashes the com
bination set forth heretofore , hut the out
come of his fight la extremely problemati
cal.
Neither of the two new members has
made his appearance nb.iut the court
house for Initiation Into hla new duties ,
and the preference of cither as to the disposi
tion of the committees have not been posi
tively made known.

Commenting on the action of the general
managers of the western lines In regard to
the general pass agreement for 1897 , an
Omaha railroad man said yesterday morning :
"I am rather surprised at the action
though I must nol be quoted cs casting re
flection on the work of the general man
agers. I had anticipated a great deal
stronger agreement than any yet known ,
but the modification mentioned In The
Dee will add but little strength to the
original Instrument.
"Yes , the managers again agree to stop
giving passes to shlppcru or to any one who
Is likely to Inlluence the movement of
freight. But passes can still bo given to
politicians In every country town along a
line. Now If a railroad wants to favor n
lumberman , EO as to secure his business ,
what Is going to prevent his name from
being entered In the political list ? He has
been represented as a man of considerable
political Inlluence In his town In the past ,
and I fear he will continue to bo In the
"
future. "

The county canvassing board completed
the canvass of the vote cast In the city
of Omaha on the state and county ticket
yesterday morning. When the last ward
had been canvassed the board pub
licly complimented the election boards
In the Ninth ward for the ex
cellent manner In which Iho work
of Iho boards had been performed.
The books were all neat and clean and the
tallies of the vote wcro legible and correct.
Less time was consumed by the canvassing
hoard In going over the returns from this
ward than In any other similar number of dls-
tricts In the entire city.
In striking contrast with these returns ,
however , was the tally sheet returned by
the First district of the First ward of South
Omaha. The clerk who kept the tally
ehcet had used his fingers for a blotter , find
the pages wore covered with black blotches.
The work of compiling returns from this
kind of record proceeded very slowly , and
It Is anticipated by those familiar with the
election boards In South Omaha that the re
turns from the other districts In that city
will be In about the same condition.
An unofficial footing of the official returns
from all the voting districts In the city
shows that the regular republican nominees
for justice of the peace and constable , both
to fill vacancies , were elected by large
pluralities. Cockrell , for Justice of the
peace , received about 4,300 more votes than
the next highest man , Wlttum , populist ,
Hrandcs being the next highest , and Al-
Htadt the lowest man on the ticket. For
constable. Learn received about 1,200 more
votes ) than Stein , while Johnson , petition
candidate , received but CSl votes.
The canvass shows that the constitutional
amendments carried In this city. The first
amendment received 1,855 votea over a ma
jority of all votes cast at the election , and
the last amendment received 1,201 votes over
a majority. The other amendments re
ceived majorities .ranging between these
figures.
It ! s thought that the work of canvassing
the returns will lie completed by this
evening. Nothing has yet occurred to In
dicate that thcro will be any change In
the list of those elected as heretofore an
nounced in The lieo.

The free "Silver " clatter concerning fraudu
lent registration on the part of republicans ,
which culminated on the day before elec
tion In the filing of complaints against a
dozen republican voters , was revived yes
terday , when a complaint was filed against
Jacob Landrock charging him with voting
Illegally.
Landrock was among those who were to
have been arrested for the alleged Illegal
registering , but the bluff did not go with
him , and ho voted anyway. lie Is now
accused of having cast a ballot In the Sixth
precinct of the Second ward , when , as a
matter of fact , he. did not reside In the
precinct and ward the ten days Immediately
preceding the election. The complainant
In the case Is W. S. Shoemaker , the man
who drew up the other complalnte for Free

None of the cases of Illegal registration
have as yet came to trial. Several of them
were dismissed a few days after election
day. Others have been continued from

law by Judge Haker , was taken Into court
yesterday afternoon and turned over to Ihe
sheriff from DCS Molncs , la. , to he taken
there for trial on the charge of disposing
of the bodies to the Drake Medical Insti
tute of thai city.
Claycomb's sentence would have expired
December 13. but requisition papers were
ready for taking him to Iowa , and the
sheriff was anxious to got his man before the
first of the year , BO the balance of the sen
tence was remitted and he was turned over
lo the Iowa sheriff , who UKJK him nt once
to the depot and starlcd for DCS Molncn.
Claycomb was convicted of opening the
graves of Hannah Larson and Jacob Ilclln
and extracting the bodies therefrom , putting
each In a small trunk , which was shipped
to DCS Molncs as baggage. After nego
Hating with the authorities of the medical
college for the sale of Iho bodies , Clay-
comb hired an expressman and had the
bodies hauled to the Institute. As the
bodies were being carried Into the Institute
n policeman , who had been given a Up by
the expressman , took Claycomb Into cus
tody , and a legal skirmish took place be
tween the authorities of DCS Molncs anil
Omaha as to where the ghoul should first
bo tried. He was finally tried In this city
and convicted. The Iowa authorities al
lege to have a stronger case against him
than the one developed here , so that It may
go rather hard with Claycomb before ho Is

The only defense offered by Johnson was
the previous bsd character of the complain
ing witness , Maud Wilson , a girl 1C years
of age. Ono of the witnesses called by
Johnson to bupport his theory of defense
was William Taylor , a young negro In Jail
awaiting trial on the charge of assault.
Tavlor tcsllflcd to having presonal knowl
edge of the girl's previous bad character.
Judge Halter questioned the witness closely
regarding his knowledge In the mailer , anil
Taylor admitted , with the air of a bravado ,
his own guilt. Judge Halter at once dl
reeled the county attorney to flic an In
formation against Taylor charging him with
the saino crime as Johnson. Taylor was
nearly scared to death when he saw what
he had done , but It was lee late to recall
what he had said.

The Rntf-Fake Club.
- . . . . .
The Advertising Men's Club of Omaha had another
meeting1 last week and it's members decided they were
tired of playing to empty houses and wanted a square
meal for a change. That was before election. Last
evening such of them as had bet on McKinley not to
gether in a back room at the Millard and made speeches
and things , while those who had bet on the Hey Orator
had to be content with iicking their chops as they read
the account of the banquet in the papers next day.
This club was organized tor the purpose of getting it's
name in the papers once n month or so and giving it's
members a chance to keep in practice while waiting for
better times. When not engaged in speech-making or
banqueting each member is supposed to stand at the
city gates and keep out fakes of every description seas
as to protect the merchants and give the fakirs on the
, inside a chance to wax good and fat. We would
respectfully suggest to the Advertising Men's Club of
Omaha that each of it's members array himself in one
of our Champion Irish Frieze Ulsters at $10.00 and
ascertain why other stores are advertising the self-same
garment at $14.95 , marked down from $19,98. Or , if
the constitution and by-laws will permit , \\e would like
to have the members assemble in a body and pass
judgment on the merits of the Men's Suits we arc sell
ing at $10.00 , and if not equal to any advertised by the
fakirs at $16.24 , wc wi'l ' agree to furnish a banquet at
which all of the members may feel free to attend.
What does the club say ? Here's a chance to get after
some of the advertising fakes.
