Miss Itoo Is out on bonds , enjoy ing her liberty. Last week Hev. Mr. Maine left Carl to go to Vllllsca. In. , to assist In the dedication at a new church. The ceremony occurred last Sunday and the minister was ono of the chief pcrformora. During the ceremony n photograph was taken , which was to bo not only a souvenir of the occasion , liut was also to bo the means ot raising funds for the now church , the Intention being to sell copies to the members of the congregation.

Ho walked about the streets to slzo up the appearance of a metropolitan city. In hla wanderings during the evening and just as the clock struck 9 , ho met the colored woman who figures In the case. She spoke to the minister and ho seemed to find some charm In her tones. At any rate he accompanied her to a house at C20 South Eleventh street. "I don't think that I stepped even Inside the door , but 1 am not Bure , " said the marj of the cloth yesterday morning. "I heard a voice Inside and I went away. " The minister departed after the woman had taken a very affectionate farewell of him.As ho left ho put-'hla hands In his pocketr , and when he had walked about fifty feet away ho discovered that his ponkelbook , containing $12. was gone.

The Inhabitants of the little suburb of Brnson were well represented at the meet- ln of the Hoard of County Commissioners yeaterday morning called to roMldcr the peti tion for the Incorporation of the village. The , petition In rjiiestlou wns flled with the comi i mtesloners nt their last meeting. U wn.i I signed by nbout 200 of the taxpayers of the little community which Is situated four mllea from the Omnha postofllce nnd In a northwesterly direction. The petition asked the board to declare the vllbgo of Renson ' to bo duly Incorporated nnd described the boundaries , Including nbout 1.000 acres , nearly all of which hns been plntted for several years. Protests ngnlnst the peti tion were llled by W. J. Council , J. J. Drown nnd the Krug Brewing company. The whole matter was act for hearing yes terday morning. The protcutnnts were present In person nnd were also represented by attorneys. The would-bo vlllagcm were nlso present In person and by attorney. The matter was argued a * great length by the attorneys for both sides. The attorneys representing ttic residents of the proposed village presented the reasons why Incorporation dwlred. The nuln argument waa that the people aru now supporting one of the largest schools | In the county and desired to turn Into the school fund the revenue derived from the licenses of the four or flvo saloons new es tablished or about to be established within the proponed limits. Another reason urgul was that there Is now no police regulation and the live stock of the neighborhood runs at will over the gardens of the residents nnd other annoyances nro experienced. The protests were argued by the attor neys , being based largely on technical legal grounds ns to whether the petition wr.a strictly within the meaning of the statute. It wns nlso nrgued that the land owned tiy the protestants was not platted nml w.is used for farming purposes nnd should not bo Included within the territory to bo suo- Ject to taxation for village purposes. When the board reconvened at 2 o'clock it held a closed pcssion In the committee room. After a session lasting nearly an hour , It was decided to reject the applica tion of the petitioners nnd a report to that effect was drawn up to bo > presented to the board at the meeting to bo held this morning. The ground upon which the application for Incorporation was rejected was a technical statutory ground urged by the attorney representing the Krug Interests , to the effect that n number of the signers of the petlllQn were not residents of the present village of Ucnson.

Nearly 100.000 head. of horses nre likely to stnrvo to death In eastern Washington this winter , nnd , strnngo to tny , their owners ns n rule are glad of It. Practically valueless are thcso horses. TheTncomn correspondent of the Now York Sun saya wholebnnda of them hnvo been sold at the rnto of from 11 to $3 apieceHlectrlclty nnd the bicycle nre the cause. The utility of the one nnd the popularity of the other have killed the liorae market. Instead ot being man's best friend , the fiorso has become - como nn nctunl pest In eastern \Vnshlngton. "An eating > niAchlnn" Is his lativst nick name , and hla death by starvation Is dcslrod that feed may bo preserved for great banda of cattle and sheep yet valuable to man. Aud so the most tevoro winter the mirth- west has seen nt least slneo ISfil l a thltiK to bo desired , rather than otherwise , by the great grazing Interests of eastern Washing ton nnd Oregon. Thnt such n winter Is nt hnnd the Indians , the oldest Inhabitant and the weather piophets nil ngrec. First , they say , the weather Is regulated- by cycler of about fifteen years each. The winter of 1SOI wns the morf ujvero ever experienced In the northwest \7Hliln the memory of man. The winter of 1875 wns very severe , nnd then , only six years later , In 1SSI , came another hard one , which Is considered the exception that proves the rule. Last year stockmen nnd ranchers hogan - gan preparing for another severe wlntor , nnd now they nre sure It Is nt hnnd. It commenced last week , when from six toi twelve Inches of snow fell all over tho- state , though It seldom snows west of the Cascades , and In eastern Washington snow Is never looked for until the holidays. Hay has gone up , and a further advance U expected. Largo bands of cattle and sheep which ar usually herdr-d nearly all winter are now under shelter consuming hay. The homo alone Is left to roam the tracklras plnlus of the semi-arid belt and die. The winter of 1SS1 caught Hen Snlpc # , then the cattle kin- ; of this section , with 30.0UO head of cattla on the range. They died of starvatloe , for there were no railroads then Jo transport hay. It was n lc son to cattlemen. nd Hint Is why careful preparations luwe been made for thta winter. Regarding the proposed nxtermlnatlon of the range horses. K. F. llfiu-on ot the North ern Pacific Laud department , who has made a special study of the sltmllon , says' "Hot winds , sriulrrcls nnd gr.ictvioppprs nro bad , but the horse pest Is brroml 11 ; still worse In rnstcrn Washington , par ticularly the cayuse variety. _ Horses hnvo become so cheap that nuny bands are running loose wltho'ut belns branded or cnred for In the least. Thcto being no de mand , they hnvo multiplied rapidly , nnd nro now eating bunch gr.isM Cliat should otherwise support thousands of e.UMc nnd sheep , which bring In revenue. Those horses nre not worth $1 apiece. There Is absolutely no market for them. Up to three years ago wo wc-s shipping horses cast in large numbers. Kli'trlrlty and bi cycles have killed the mark" ' . . This year Trafilc Manager Hannaford of the North ern Paclflc hao made vigorous efforts to find a market for horses In the enst. Horses , very cheap , have been offered to glue fac tories nnd rcmle'-inrc establishments of various kinds. They do not want them. A few carloads nre being shipped to the Atlantic coast for shipment to France , whcro horse meat Is In demand , but thcso shipments make no Impression on the oup- ply. The horses nro dtatroylng the ranges twelve months In the year. There nre over 100.000 head In eastern Wuahlngton , and they nro destroying the ranges that would support 500,000 bend of cattle. The situation is appalling from the cattleman's stand point. "There nro but a few stockmen that handle both horses nnd cattle who will not welcome a winter that will destroy the range horses , providing practically nil ot them nro tnlcen. I will cite nn Instance of what the horses are doing. In 1SSO the Cow lt " -"L-ito ' -moir-Iiil * 't < * " < p.y. j ttveon Sprague nud the Snake river , Iiad aver 100,000 head of cnttlo and som ahccp on them. Then the buncli nr.uuaa knre high over the ranges. This year no.ooo head of horses have kept the grays down so these ranges will barely support 10,000 cattle tlo nnd 40,000 head of sheep. Since July they have presented the appearance of nb- Holutc desolation. The horses cat twenty- four hours a day and have kept the grass completely down. "No taxes nro paid on these horses. The hard winter we expect will starve them to death. Owners will take out their good hordes and care for them. If 90 per rent of the total number nro killed oft the 10 per cent left will be worth as much as If not moro than the entire lot now. Once killed off , they will never become a numerous again , for no efforts will bo made In breed range horsf.s , there being no money In thu hu.slnrfiu. The number needed for farming and the city demnnd can easily be supplied , " SAVIXf ! THIS IJYK.S. KlTent of Llulil " 'l 'I'yiic on Iti-nilorV ! ' ; < N.
