Mnckay , rector of All Halms' Episcopalian church , on the theory that once bound by the tics ot masonry the one who takes such obligation must shield n brother oven though he docs wrong In ths capacity of a public olllclal nnd "when the offending brother nnd the Informer occupy iilmllur rxHponslblllticfl. All ngrco that It Is the duty of one- Mason to protect another in times of distress , so long as the distressed member keeps hlm- M'lf within the jurisdiction of his fraicrinil obllKullon , but n consensus of opinion IH that I ho tcnota of the order do not obligate n brothiT to countenance evil doing on the contrary , they are emphatic In declaring thai Masonry leaches only the prinslples ) of honcNly nnd faithfulness to duty. Judge \ V.V. . Keyfor , the present grand niHHtcr of the Masonic or.ler . in Nebraska , when interrogated , said : "I hnvo no hesi tancy In declaring that there Is nothing In llio Masonic ritual that obligates ono brother to stand by another In n CASH of wrong.Vcro I n ptblic olllclal sitting alongside of an other who had taken u .Mimonlc obligation Avlth inn I would feel It my duty to warn him of an approaching downfall , but If my brother had so far gone as to cuter Into crime I could not , as n good Mason , shield him In the least. If 1 saw In advance an opportunity to swerve him from wrong and to direct him Into the right path I should certainly do KO. Hut if I knew a crime had been committed I could not , according to my Masonic obligation , shield the- transgressor from whatever course the law might pursue. Masonry does not promulgate crime ; If so the order would not have withstood the criticism of centuries. Wo try to teach the right and if ono of uur brothers goes wrong after wr have tried to turn him aright wo cannot legally or morally tay the hand of the law. I make this expression In a gen eral way , ns n citizen and n Mason , without any regard whatever for local conditions that may prompt an inquiry. " Orand Secretary White said : "My position does not warrant mo In expressing an opin ion. I have tin opinion , however , but It Is useless to express It , for the luncts of Ma- Fonry stand for the right. Whatever the grand master says Is a correct Interpreta tion of Masonic law. " William Holler , master of Nebraska lodge No. 1 , ono of the most influential lodges In the United States , mild : "It seems to me that any ono who has taken the trouble to Inform himself as to the teachings of Ma sonry ought to know that we could not , cither as a Mason or n citizen , shield ono who does wrong. Our order docs not tench wrongdoing , but , on the other hand , obli gates our brothers to do the right. If a brother commits a crime , he cannot expect sympathy from his order. That Is all I have to Hay. " Several other prominent Masons wore In terviewed , who said they preferred that Grand Master Keysor should Interpret Masonic law for them , since by virtue ot the honored ofllco he holds he is today at the head of the Masonic fraternity in Nebraska. SILVER ORKKK , Neb. . Jan. 20. To the Killtor of The Uec : I have noted the con troversy botwcrm yourself and Rev. Mnckay ns to tbo duty of Mason to Mason. As a Mason in good standing I want to say that biirely Hov. Mackay does violence to the tenets of Masonry. No Mason Is obligated to shield n brother Mason In ijriine. Your put ting of the question In editorial of January 2C lesuo is certainly tbo correct position as viewed from the sldo of right , whether bib lically or masonlcally. Yours truly , W. D.

Having a pistol handy , he placed the muzzle agninst hln right temple and fired. Krutn Is now at the Clarkeon hospital , where his life In hanging In the balance. On account of his weakened atnto the doc tors have not attempted to perform the operation of trepanning nnd from the con dition of the patient nt a late hour Sunday night drnth may intercede at any moment , they say , nnd render the service unneces sary. sary.Kruta Kruta Is a laborer of the prosperous sort , Industrious nnd saving , but during the last ninety days he has been the victim ot a scilea of misadventures that would have discouraged a more stout-hearted man than he. First , his wife became Insane. He had her treated nt home for awhile and then , her case seeming hopelctn , gave his consent to placing her In 'the asylum at Lincoln , Next ho had to submit to the humiliation of seeing his two young children consigned to the Homo of the Friendless. In the mean time he had lost hit ) job In Geneva , which had been his home , HO hecatno to Omaha in , the hope of getting work. He had $140 in money. "When I get work nnd save up SUOO , " he told thu proprietor of his lodging house , "I'm going to set tip housekeeping and bring my children here. " ItoM.i-d or All UN Money. That was. January 20. A few hours later ho was robbed of $140 , the loat of nil his savings. For these reasons life looked dark to Joseph Krutn , as ho lay in his humble bed In the Klkhorn lodging house , Eleventh and Dodge streets , Sunday morning and medi tated upon the events of the Immediate past. past.No No ono heard thp report of the pistol , but It Is thought the shot was fired a few mln- utcn before 10 o'clock , as at that hour Wil liam Sommhauser , a fellow lodger , went Into Kruta's room and found him uncon- Hclous , the blood trickling In a thin stream from a wound in his temple. The smear of blood made- the wound appear mucli larger than it was. To Sommhauscr It looked Itko a knife thrust , and he rushed down stairs to the clerk's office shouting "mur- : lcr ! " The clerk , John n. Barn , at once called up the police station , and a few minutes later Sergeant Whalcn and an officer were upon the scene with a patrol wagon. The sergeant examined Krutn and found concealed - coaled under the bed clothes the pistol from which the shot had been flred. It was n 32- callber weapon , with one chamber empty. This find dispelled the theory of murder. AilmK * UN .Snlclilnl Act. At the station , while the police surgeon was cleansing the wound , consciousness re turned to Kruta and ho admitted having nado an attempt upon his life. He said his recent misfortunes had biought on n fit of Icspondency and that he did not care to live. The surgeon gave the wound a temporary dressing nnd then ordered the patient sent to the Clarkson hospital. UNKNOWN MAN DIES ALONE Olvliior ilip Xiimr of GcnrRC Scott In Found Dead in IIIn I.'fd.

About 11:30 : Saturday hlsht he called nt his lodging house ns usual , paid the proprietor 15 cents for n bed nnd re tired. Ho seemed as well an usual at that time. At 11 o'clock Sunday forenoon tlic proprietor , Nicholas Snope , went to Scott'fl room to cull him and found him dead. The body waa cold nnd life had evidently been extlnot several hour.s.

The Omaha Drawing com pany is grading Its property nt the north west corner of Twcuty-fourth and O ant the Ancient Order of United Workmci property nt the northwest corner of Twenty- fifth and M Is In the hands of graders. F. J. Lewis Is securing figures for the grading of his property nt the southwes corner of Twenty-fourth and O nnd this con tract will most likely soon be let.

With the completion of the grading on 0 street , every piece of property oil ( hi street between Twenty-fourth mid Twenty sixth , with one exception , will bo at th grade line. This activity on O street 1 ccuscd by the. supposition that the railroad will Eomcttmc erect a viaduct across th tracks from Twenty-sixth nnd O to the U.x chaiigo building. A great many believe tha this bridge will be .built during the com Ing summer , but officials of the railroads In tcrested assert that the matter has been In definitely postponed. As the cold snap is not expected to las any length of time , the graders have no discharged their men or sent their tciuiis to pasture. Active work continued all day Sat urday and It Is expected that operations wll 'bo ' resumed cither today or tomorrow. ThiinkH to Chief llfili'll. For several hours Saturday afternoon and evening the water supply for South Omaha was exceedingly low , and In case of a big fire the damage would doubtless have been great The lack of prcrsurp was caused by repairs being made to the thirty-inch main which carries water from Florence to this city Chief Rcdell of the Omaha ilro department saw at once what shape the lack of direct pressure would leave the city in shouli there be n fire and ho sent down nn engine nnd three men to be hand In case n fire broke out.

Mr , Carroll said ye.sterday that he thought that he would be nbl < ? to secure Hydock's re lease in a few < lays. It will bo remem bered that Hydock was sent to jail for con tempt of court , the charge against him being tbo ejectment of Ed Johnston from a voting booth after the court had restrained the in terference of the police.

South Omaha citizens appear to be unable lo decide just what is the beet course to take in the military road controversy and It Is possible that the matter may bo laid on the shelf for the tlmo being. Some favor the Thirteenth street route , while nhers want to eco Twenty-fourth street nade the main road. It is agreed that if ILera l a fight the chances of Improving ilther road nro dim and for this reason lothlng more may be done.
