JUSTICE HAUIUSON'S OPINION.
The 8cr > arato opinion of Justice Harrison
Li UK follows :
I concur In the views expressed by Judge
Norv.il In the opinion of the court anil
mhlch are state J by Commissioner
relative to pertain of the questions pro onttd
for dlseuflolon and decision In this notion.
Thr conclusions to which I ngrec are stated
by Judge Norval :
"The olfice of mayor of u city of the met
ropolitan clasH \f \ nn odloo of profit and trust
under thp IniAts of this state.
"UnPlilmul witness fees nnd cost * re
maining In the hnnds of the clerk of tbo
district court nro not public moneyt ) , nnd the
legislature , of this ntnto Insofar as It at
tempts to divest the T > er onf for w ioie ben
efit rUch fees nnd costs arc pild of title
thereto I * unconstitutional nnd void. "
A proper Interpretation of the ternr * of trm
section of the constitution Invoked herein by
the relater In connection Iwlth the law which
prescribes the duties of a dork of the dis
trict court In regard to lines nnd ttciultles
loads me to conclude that while It may bo
noso'.ble ' thnt ho has been made a collector ,
ha Is not n. custodian ; ho cannot bo charged
ns the latter under n fair reading nnd ren-
dorlnff of the Inw. The l.ingunge of the sec
tion of the constitution Is "collector and cus
todian. " Of this every word must ro.miln
at written by the constitution milkers and
ndopted by the people , and be allowed Its
ordinary accepted slsnltleatlon. To drns
ifrom the phrnse the word "and" nml In
sert In Us place "or , " ns 1ms been suggested
In argument , should It be done , would Ixs to
chaiifro nnd do violence to both the letter
and the spirit or Intent.
If tlio respondent ns cleric mns not a cus-
todlrtn of the lines and penalties. It follows
from the effect of thl * nnd ths other con-
cluslon'i to which I nqrco that the relation
or Information heroin did not state a cause
of action , the demurrer to the niiMvor
searches the * record. Is fatal to the first dc-
ifcotlvo iplpidlng In order of flllnif , the rela
tion and the judnmnnt must bo nR.ilnst the
rclator. A dismissal of the action should be
entered. This would dispose of the CMUHC
nnd render unncces.oary a discussion of
some other questions lAhlch were argued ,
nnd I prefer to express no opinion on suci
further questions ,
QUESTION OK JUHY TRIAL
The quc&tlon of 'whether Moorcs could de
mand a Jury In the trial of this case was
not pasaiJ upon In the opinion , though It
WM MlsciS 'by < Moore's attorney In the prog
ress of hearing. The court , however , de
cided today In Mayor agaftwt H. G. Wilkin
son , that "tho trill of Issues ot fact on an
Qrypilcati'.on for mandamus Is not one In which
a Jury may bo demanded as a matter of
right. "
P. T. Hansom , one of the attorneys for
Droatch , staled last evening In connection
with the decision of the supreme court In
overruling the demurrer In the Broitch-
Moorca cuflo , that he Intended to take advantage -
vantage of the privilege of making reply ,
but had not decided what course uo'uld be
pursued until the opinion handed down had
been received by him. Mr. Hansom stated
that ho would probably receive a copy of the
opinion today and ho would then bo In a
position to say \\4iat would be done.

CHICAGO , Deo. 0. Amid considerable ex
citement December wheat sold today at
? 1.09 , the highest price , with ono exception ,
since the memorable "Old Hutch'1 corner In
1SS8. The market started very nervous , bids
at the start ranging all the way from § 1.01 %
to $1.01 , and in a few minutes sold up to
| 1.05. The trade was much broader than
during the bulges ot Monday and yesterday ,
when the selling of not to exceed 00,000 bush
els caused the market to < i\\\el \ down. BuyIng -
Ing orders came from all parts of the pit ,
mostly for lots ot from 5,000 to 23,000 , bush-
odn , but oven tor such small lots sellers were
scarce nnd the market for the moment waa
apparently In danger of running away.
Then the bull clique brokers came to the
rescue , but not until at least 250,000 bushels
had been offered and eagerly taken did the
excitement dlo down. About 11:45 : a. m. ,
however , shorts got on the rampage again.
The1 market In the meantime had recovered
to $1.05 , having sold down to $1.03 % . An
attempt to buy a moderate line at that prlco
revealed the fact that the market was tare.
Ono dollar flvo.and a half was bid with no
Inkers. Then the market Jumped % a cent
at a tlmo to $1.0S , and little wheat dribbled
out , then back It went to $1.08 % , but only
for a moment when It turned again ,
Jumping to $109 In thrco bids. There the
tlmrniiL'lilv frlchtpupd Fthnrts were enabled
o buy and the market quieted down , react-
ng to $1.07 . There was aroarcntly o gen-
ral belief among traders that the December
mils Intended to carry the deal In that open -
on to the last extremity. This opinion was
trcngthened by the announcement that
grcemcntfi had been completed whereby all
ontract wheat will be shln > e < l cast by all-
rall as soon as delivered hero , thus keeping
10 market bare. This announcement bad
creat weight with the shorts , \\ho for the
rst time displayed real anxiety.

omo members of the board that In 1S9S the
aloons In South Omaha would have to pay
i license of $1.000. Ever since the organlza-
lon of the city the license has been $300 a
'car , the population having been 'based on
he last federal census which showed the
number of residents to bo 8,032.
From what can bo learned It Is not
bought that there will toe much opposition
among the members of the Hoard of Edu
cation to this change. It Is Ilgurcd that live
and 'possibly six members will vote for 'high '
Icense , while It Is thought that three will
rote against such'a'nSovc.
One member of the fcoard said last even-
ng that ho thbught 'the matter would
come up before lUng1 and that the attorney
vould bo Instructbd to take sucfli stops as
10 considered necessary to "bring about the
result desired. It Is known that with a $500
Icenso many more saloons will lo
cate 'here. ' Up to the present tlmo
Icenscs have been Issued to sev
enty-one applicants , which Is a larger nurn-
jer 'by fifteen than was ever Issued before.
With the Increase In the population since
he census was taken > In June It Is estimated
hat at 'least ' 13.000 people analce their homes
lore now , so that there can 'bo 110 doubl
he Board of "Education " having the legal
right to Insist upon 'high ' license.
A prominent 'business man , who Is n mom-
> or of the board , says that ho will oppose
ho proposed Increase for purely 'business
reasons. He figures that with a $500 license
there will bo moro than 100 saloons In oper
ation hero. Each saloon employs at leas ]
our 'persons and thus quite a number would
Ind employment , be'alJes the earnings of
hose persons would too spent here. They
again , with low 'license ' , there would bo few
f any vacant buildings to rent , while It Is
'eared that If the high license plan goes
through many of these now engaged In dis
pensing liquors would quit the business. It
s known that ono brewery Is figuring on
building six additional saloons hero In the
spring if the license remains where It Is
jut should It bo raised the buildings wll
not bo erected.
Now the saloons all pay an occupation
tax of $100 a year la addition to the rcgu-
ar license. This tax goes Into the city treas
ury and assists materially In paying oft the
city's Indebtedness. Some of the city officials
are known to bo opposed to giving up this
occupation tax , but if the license Is raised
to $1,000 it Is not thought that this addl-
. tonal tax could be Imposed. The city wouli
: hus bo the loser to the extent of about
? 10,000. While It | s known that a majority
of the city council Is opposed to an In
crease In the license. It Is asserted by mem
's ot the ifloard of Education that by mak
Ing the proper showing of population In the
courts the council will bo compelled to con
sent.
Cost of City Printing-
Tlioro seems to ho considerable ) complain
over the fact that the city Is now paying
23 cents per square for the printing o
city ordinances and other notices , when pro
pesals were uiado HOMO tlmo ago to do this
work much lower. At the tlmo bids wore
advertised for the Dally Sun 'bid ' 10 cents
per square for the flint Insertion and 5
cents for each subsequent Insertion. The
TrlLuno bid 7 cents straight. The two fao
lions of tl.o council failed to agree as to
whoso bid was the lowest , with the resul
that no contract was lot and the work Ja
atlll being done at list year's prices.
This matter canto' ' ' up at the last sessloi
of the council li ' tli * shape of a protes
from Oouncllmon Barrett und Kelly when a
bill for city printing at the od rate wa
presented. Thesojf cijnncilmen refused to
vote for the paymanflpt the bill , and Coun
cllmoia Barrett has since announced that a
the next meeting IN. .will offer a resolution
Instructing the clerk to advertlao for bid
again. In this wi'y ' 'It ' Is hoped to bring
the matter before the council and to aware
the contract at a rate below the- ono no\

AMUSEMENTS.
The Order of Elks Is prominently benovo-
ent and protective ; the women ot Omaha ,
above all things , charitable ; hence It follows
that when a combination of these two benefi
cent forces occurs something Is sure to
iroflt substantially thereby. Such a com
pilation was responsible for tbo filling of
Boyd's theater last night with one of the
very largest audlencca of the season tn
auuiciico greater in size a > nd far moro valu
able peculiarly ( by reason of absence of
'paper" ) than any vhlch. L.s ) done honor \
o the theater's worthy and unworthy of- ,
erlnga since the theatrical year began. And
such an audience must have contributed a
comfortable sum to the treasury of the
Children's orphanage , and yielded all klmb ,
of gratification to the kind hearted women
n black face , who , In turn , afforded their
icarcrs and 'beholders ca entirely enjoyable
entertainment.
An ovclturo by an orchestra of male musi
cians came first the only thing on the pro-
giam , aside from Mr. Kelly's conducting , not
wholly feminine. Thoa the rising curtain
llscloscs an unparalleled array of minstrel
ovellncES , three ranks deep , rising tier on
: ler to where- the great stuffed elk , which
las presided at many a charitable session ,
coked down upon the dazzling scene. All
black were these exponents of modenn mln-
strelry faces , Iwlr and ralme-nt unrelieved
save by collars and ehlrt fronts ot contrast
ing white , and hero and there a gleam of
: ceth. Twelve In the second row displayed
letters In order which , read consecutively ,
spelled the name of a much advertised and
doubtless entlicly combustible coal. A dark
faced page to gay attire stood guard at
each "tormentor , " and a vacant throne In
the center and two chairs , also vacant , at
each end , told of wonders yet to como. A
burnt of harmony from nil concerned shaped
Itself Into the familiar strains of "Dixie ; "
the Interlocutor ( Miss Drown ) catered to
shouts of loud acclaim ; and the ondmen
followed , all bravo .2nd red of jacket and
bearing the expected bones and tamborlnes.
Then , the entertainment having fairly be-
Bun , an hour did not suffice to exhaust the
trcasurco of the olio , la which Mrs. Cameron ,
Mlea Bowman , Mrs. Kelly , Mrs. King , Miss
Coon , Miss Durnham and Mrs. F. 'L. Hallcr
appeared na solo performers. A vast num
ber of Jokes and gagleto were also bandied
about among the endmen Just hero , for the
most part fresh and new and pert'nent ,
many of them concerning particular well
known and philanthropic Elks and others ap
plying the gentle gad of satire to local ob
jects , ranging In Importance from editorial
conflicts to Dr. Gee \Vo , and from Queen
Polaris to the Union depot. Good store of
chiysanthemums , roses and pumpkins went
over the footlights during this brhk inter
change of wit and song , a bulk of vegeta
tion which might doubtless have been sold
for much and given .to the poor , but which ,
bestowed a& It was , pleased giver and taker
alike.
An Intermission preceded the appearance
of the- widely famed and every receptive
Sponge sisters , Soak and Wet , and of the i
Cuban Joan of Arc. This latter named
Amazon , following the example of the Hl-
bcrniain Joan who kindled the flame ot
Irish patriotism on the same stage a fort
night ago , wrung the hearts of her hearers
with a recitation of the woes of downtrodden
den Cuba , written for her express use and
benefit by our esteemed fellow townsman ,
.Mr. n. C. Wakeley.
The performance ended with a one-act
farce , called "Tho Dells , " presented by Mrs.
Kelly , Mrs. King and Misses North , How-
min , Klmball and Hake. M'as Klmball
showed her versatility by doing a skirt
daace very acceptably , and little Mlsj Hake
may bo said , without disparagement of
others , to have made tho. hit of the evening
with a "coon" song and a dance performed
with the substantial aid of a sufficiently i
atout pair of legs enoised In many-colored
stockings.
All In all , the entertainment wna a de
cidedly pleasant one. The request that razors
bo checked at the door was quite generally
heeded , and order was reasonably well pre
served on both sides of the footlights. AK
on certain former occasions of this kind ,
great credit Is duo Mr. Kelly for his eindent
service In drilling the soloists and the
chorus. Much of the artistic success ot tliu
performance Is undoubtedly duo to his ener
getic supervision.

THE USE AND
VALUE OF GLASSES
Prejudices of Old Giv
ing Way to Reason.
Every ono knows In general wny that
spectacles are worn to assist the sight , and
there Is A largo number tbat know nothing
moro than that they help the aged to see
to mid nnd the na.ir-slgb.ted to SPO at < x dis
tance. The prejudice against glasses has , to
the ono hand , acted to dctrr persrns from
wcjrlna glas'cs who really need them , and ,
on the other hand , has acted to tnUuppcc em
ployers to decllno to engage urollcants for
work who nro wearing spectacles ,
It Is hardly possible In three few lines to
attempt to cninb.it these prejudices or to
prcsccit arguments suillclcnt to prove their
fallacy.
The first ono Is so unrc.iBoii.iblr thnt no
( sensible person In this enlightened d-iy would
bo rash enough to advise people \\lio have
defective sight not to wear glares nor would
these pccolc be foolish enough to listen to
such advice. While In regard to the second
prejudice mentioned employers are socti nnd
easily convinced that the min who notices
his sight Is falling and promptly uses the
moana at his comnvliul to restore It Is the
moro wide-awake and capable workman and
does better service than the careless iierson
who falls to notice his Impaired sight , or if
ho docs , takes no Interest or makes tie effort
to restore It. The truth of the matter Is
that In the hands of a skillful oculist and
optician there la no means at the present
time which will .correct so many eye troubles ,
such as nervous headache , squinting , cross-
eyes and restore good eight as suitable lensca
In all thalr various combinations ; and people
have not been slow 'to flnd this out and act
In accordance.
The common Ignorance In regard to glasses
and their use has given many the Idea Hut
nersons can choose their ewe glasses. Hut
tno fallacy or supposing lint the glasses
that seem the plcasintcnt for a tow moments
are apt to provo the correct ones for con
stant use Is not BO general an formerly. Not
every ono suffers fvom such a course , and
yet the groU number that do makes It f for
and advisable. In order to avoid any risk , to
have their eyes thoroughly examined by a
competent optician , even In simple cases.
H.vrorlonco has taught the public much In
this matter ( of the Importance of prrpcr
Glasses ) , but there are still many persons
who would decidedly object to Ill-fitting ,
rcady-mado clothing , who still do not hesitate
In the infinitely more Important and dcll-
oito matter oC sight , who will still follow up
the advertisements ot spectacle dealers and
go into n store to have a pair of glasses fitted
without thinking of the danger ot thus treat
ing an organ whoso mechanism Is of the
most delicate nature and whose use Is almost
as valuable as llfo Itself. You would not
think of going to a prescription clerk and
asking him to prescribe for you In case ot
sickness. How much less , then , should you
think of trusting your eyes to a mechanic
or a salesman who may know absolutely
nothing of the anatomy , physiology or pathology
elegy of the cyo or the detrimental effect ot
il'.asscs fitted to the teirocrary conditions ot
sight which ore found by the simple means
of trying different IOHFCS until the customer
has found what they think will do. People
who wear glasses should have their eyes
examined by an optician who understands
their anatomy and condition from a medical
standpoint. Those examinations can ouly bo
made In properly appointed rooms , and with
lights arranged for this purpose.
Drs. Seymour & Dally have many now
and scientific Instruments for their work re
cently Imported from Europe , and can suc
cessfully treat or fit with glasses many who
have given up hope. Those who are Inter
ested In these articles are Invited to call on
them , as they do not charge for consulta
tion , although they are well known from the
merits ot their skill. Straightening croas-
eyes without an operation Is absolutely now
to many doctors In this country. But wo
have fulfilled every promise made by us In
this city , and will gladly refer you to dozens
of people In Omaha whoso eyes wo have
straightened without using any surgical In
strument or Inflicting the slightest pain or
Inconvenience.
Tomorrow ( Saturday ) , December 11 , wo will
examine free of charge the eyes ot all the
children brought to us.
