C/IIOAQO / , Sept. 15. Juror John E. Fowler
ler , Jr. , whose tmddcu Illness last Monday
caused a. recesa In the trial of Adolph L.
Luotgort , alleged wlfo murderer , had finally
recovered today. The trial was resumed with
I'rof. Reorgo Vincent llalley of the Field
Columbian museum on the witness nland.
The cross-examination was taken up by At
torney Vincent at the point at which It was
dropped Monday.
Attorney Vincent began a sharp cross-ex
amination of the witness upon the hitter's
authorities upon scsamold bones. Prof. Bailey
named a number of recognized authorities
and added that oven these were not entirely
reliable at present , because the world was
progressing and now discoveries were being
made In nclenco every day. Then the at
torney for the defense read u long list of au
thors and asked the witness If ho was ac
quainted with the writings of each of them.
To each of these an objection was entered
and sustained.
Judge Tuthlll finally becoming tired ot the
line of crous-uxamlnutlon. " 'claimed , "Oh ,
got through with that list ; busy , practical
men haven't time to read books tlieuo days. "
The Jurorx smiled at this and ox-Judgu Vin
cent frowned.
Luotgert looked tired and worn this morn
ing and the heat Is having a depressing ef
fect upon him. The crowd at the court house
door was largo and the deputy sheriffs In at
tendance had much trouble with people who
vcro determined to got Into the court room.
I'rof , Hov.-se was briefly cross-examined
upon his direct testimony of last week nnd
then Inspector Schaack was called to the
Bland for cross-examination. Inspector
Schaack acknowledged that lit ) had paid
money to Ulalk and Odorofsky , two witnesses
for the prosecution. Ho did It because the
men -were penniless , ho said , Judge Tuthlll
stopped thu sharp cross-questioning upon this
point long enough to observe that witnesses
wore entitled to pay as well as Jurors.
STAHTMNQ TESTIMONY.
The moat positive and startling testimony
offered In the ca o for two weeks was brought
out during the afternoon session. I'rof.
George A , Dorsey of the Field museum posi
tively Identified a bone banded to him by
Assistant State's Attorney McEwan as the
upper portion ot the loft femur , "Tho bone
1s undoubtedly that of a female , " Bald I'rof.
Dorsey , "I base my opinion upon the forma
tion of the socket at the 'hip ' or thigh Joint.
Tills bono lias the appearance of having been
Bomewlmt burned. U has lost all animal
matter. "
"Could a solution of caustic potash have
SILVER
GLOSS
IB toe beet etarok for your laundry ,
produced the effect you speak of ? " eagerly
queried Assistant State's Attorney McEwan.
"In my Judgment'It could , " replied the
witness.
This evidence produced a sensation In the
court rooms. I'rof. Dorsey Is a well known
osteologtst , though but a young man. He
has traveled In India , South America and
Alaska In the Interest of t'ho ' Field Colum
bian museum.
I'rof. Dorsey also Identified another piece
ot bono as the left temporal bone of a fe
male. Ho said the slzo aud shape ot tba
bono led him to this conclusion. The bono
also bore evidences of having been scorched
by fire.
Dr. Norval II. Plcrco also identified a bono
previously shown Prof. Dorsoy as the left
temporal boneof a female and it was his
opinion that caustic potash might have pro
duced the scarred and brittle- conditions of
t'ho ' bone.
Attorney Vincent , for the defense , asked
Icavo to have the bones produced examined
by experts and said Its would 'not cross-ox-
amlno Dr. Plorco until tomorrow. His re
quest was granted.
Luetgert picked up both pieces of the bones
which arc said to have been found In his
sausaga factory and examined them with a
scowl on his heavy features.

CANADA TO 1113 AT TIIK STATI3 1MIII.
.Make * Application for Space for n
IIIK i\iiiiiK.
Some Idea of the Importance and slzo
of the coming State fair can bo gained from
the fact that Canada has come to make an
exhibit. Last night William J. White of Ot
tawa , Canada , an attache of and represent
ing the Interior department of Canada , made
application with Secretary Furnas of the
State Hoard or Agriculture for space for
big display of Canada grains , grasses and
products , particularly such as are grown In
the western part ot the dominion , The ex
hibit will also Include a ecrlcs of photographs
showing the commercial development ot that
part of the country.
Mr. White stated that this was the first
tlma In- the history ot Canada that the do
minion government had undertaken to make
any exhibits of the resources of 'their coun
try at any of the state fairs In the United
Stoles. He Is now making a tour of the cir
cuit of which Nebraska is a member. Thu
exhibit was first shown at the State fair
held In Minnesota last week und was re
moved directly to this city , H requires a
half car to transport It.
While bo ls In this city In charge ot this
exhibit Mr. White will be also engaged In
the duty of Investigating thu scope of the
TransmUslsslppl Exposition of next year.
Ho Is detailed to make a report on this big
show to the Interior department , which H
considering the advisability ot making a big
exhibit. Mr , White appears to be confident
that the dominion will bo as well repre
sented as any of the states of the Union.
Ho In also atslgnod 'to ' write up the exposi
tion for some Canada papers and will at once
proceed to gather the necessary materials.
He Is well qualified to perform this duty , as
ho Is a newspaper man of twenty years' ox-
perlonre , having resigned from the honorable
profession foi the purpose of accepting the
position In the Interior department ,
Ilesldes this Important application another
big batch of entrloi In all departments was
received at the office of the secretary last
night iind yesterday afternoon. This In
cluded a considerable number brought by
Members Poynter , Dlnsmorb and Vance from
DCS Molnes , where they were In attendance
at thu Iowa State fair. They report that the
show wan a splendid exhibition. They BO-
cured the pick of the entries there.
In vlow of the great number ot entries that
are coming' In , Secretory Furnas has decided
to double his clerical force this morning. He
has also ordered Superintendent Smith ol
the agricultural Implement department and
Superintendent Jones ot the agricultural
building to bo on hand this morning for
duty. These Instructions were given because
a great number ot the entries are already ar
riving on the State fair grounds and It U de
sired to put them In place as soon as possi
ble. It Is absolutely necessary to begin
the work early , in order to have everything
la place on the day when the fair open * .
AIM'llOVE 'CITY ' COAI , CONTRACTS.
ShorfUKe of Fire Tumi AK"I i > >
ISvlilrticc.
The only official business transacted by
the Advisory board at the regular meeting
yesterday was to approve the contracts of
the city with the American Fuel company ,
C. 'B. ' Havens and Victor Whlto for coal for
municipal use during the current year.
There was considerable discussion of ways
and means to secure a wagon for the fire
department without running against the sit
uation caused by the depleted condition of
the fund. Victor White has the contract
to furnish 220 tons of coal for the flro de
partment , on which ho is willing to make
a deduction of 50 cents a ton It the depart
ment will do the hauling. Chief Heiloll
sugggcsted that the city could save $50 or
$60 la this way , besides the cost of the
wagon which was very much needed for
other purposes. The fact remained , how
ever , that there wore no funds with which
to purchase the wagon. The chief was
finally Instructed to ascertain if Mr. White
would not consent to furnish the wagon
and deduct the cost from the rebate ou the
coal after it had been hauled.

Members of the Doard of Education will
hold an informal meeting Friday evening at
the Drown park school house In the Second
ward to consider the advisability of build
ing an addition to the present structure.
According to the reports of Superintendent
Munro the enrollment at this school house
Is considerably over BOO , every room now
being overcrowded. It is to devise some
scheme- whereby the large nijmbor of chil
dren of school ago in the district may be
taken care of that the board will visit the
building. The board owns a strip of prop
erty on the north adjoining the school buildIng -
Ing and It may bo dosmecl advisable to erect
an addition on this property.
Complaint Is also made about tbo crowded
condition of the Central school and It Is
barely possible that tha question of voting
bonds for a now High school bulldlnk will
come before the people at the fall election.
An adjourned meeting of the board vlll be
held Saturday night to take some action on
the crowded condition of the schools.

The South Omaha division In the Ak-fiar-
Den parades next week promises to bo a
credit to the city , as up to date an even
dozen organizations have agreed to turn out
and swell the ranks of the marching clubs.
Of course the feature of tbo division will
bo the Stock Yards Equestrian club. It is
expected that the club will turn out eighty
strong , each member being mounted on his
own horse. The riders will be dressed In
dark frock coats , white pantaloons , black
leggings and light Fedora hats. So far this
summer the members of the club have not
had a great deal of time to drill , but the
horses learned their duties thoroughly last
year , and have not forgotten them. W. D.
Cheek has been' chosen marshal of the South
Omaha division , and all organizations In the
city desiring to Join the parade are requested
to report to him not later than Friday night ,
giving an Idea ot the number of men that
will turn out. It U more than probable
that the trip to and from Omaha will bo
made via the Missouri Pacific , the Intention
being to charter a trail * of five or more cara.
In this way the return , homo can be made
much more quickly than on the street cars.
V -loen Fire Hull , Resolution.
Th resolution of fhq , cpuncll passed at
the last meeting directing ) that a three-year
contract for fire hall JNo.1 bo entered into
with Dan Hannon at 'a ' monthly rental ot
$40 , has bsen vetoed by the mayor , the
papers In the case being prepared yesterday.
In this veto the m'ay r' ' asserts that the
rental la too high , and 'tttat ' In three years
the city would bo paylrfg more for rent than
thu building Is worth. Further than this the
mayor gives the namc'v of three property
owners who would fie'willing to erect a
brick building for nroTm'partment [ purposes
at a less rental than'that , asked by Hannon.
K. Tombrlnk offers tiV'jWup ' a fire hall at
for the property dlre'clty' across the street
from where the flre hall'is'uow located. The
fire and water commfpvft1 and the council
will be urged by the mayor to consider these
propositions and not enter Into a three years'
contract for the present quarters.
* Mayor 1C UN or.
Mayor Ensor Is angry and ho doesn't care
who knows it. The occasion is the fact that
the stock yards company has taken tbo lib
erty to lay a railroad track across L sheet
without ashing the permission of tba mayor
and city council. Since the D. & M. rnfused
to allow the main line to be lapped by the
new stock yards track at a point west of
Cudahy'e the track baa -been carried on , the
Intention being to run it to a gully some dli-
tance north of L street. Lait evening thu
track bad been laid a half lilotK or mere
north of L street. The mayor mid .bat ho
proposed sending a letter to "tie olflrUls of
the yard company culling atluillo < i to the
city ordinances governing tuci matters aud a
request that the track In question bo torn
up at once. Mayor Unor will a'to bni'g
the matter to the attention of the council
by means of a communication and vlll urge
that some action be taken. It Is tin muni
tion ot the yard company to u. > o this new
track In hauling dirt cars trim the Armour
slto and to dump the dirt In the deep gully
at Thirty-fifth and J streits.
Anthony Smith IHsupprnrH.
Anthony Smith , whose home is at Thirty-
ninth and J streets , has been missing since
Sunday , September 5 , and his wife Is very
much afraid that ho has met with some ac
cident. On the day mentioned Smith left
his home , saying that he was going to
Melchor's drug store at Twenty-fourth and
N streets to purchase some liniment. Ho
never showed up at the drug store and no
trace of him can bo found. Friends think
that ho has gone to some other city to look
for work , and that ho will bo heard from
before long. Smith was employed In the
box factory at Cudahy's and was considered
a hard working man. For several days be
fore hla sudden departure Smith had been
drinking heavily , and for this reason his
wife thinks ho has met with an accident.
Mrs. Smith Is left with three children to
look after. -

on account of the Twenty-fifth street grad
ing , went over the ground In company with

street will bo light , and the appraisers ex
pect to be able to adjust the matter out of
