Admiral Dewey Is a party in a suit now
pending before the supreme court. The
action arises from the settlement of an
estate under a will, The admiral's brother
was appointed administrator of the Bradford
estate. George Dewey later succeeded to
his brother's powers, and the suit now
pending is designed to straighten out the
complications that ensued.
It 's believed that the court will adjourn
tomorrow evening. The call for this week
was not so large as at the last May sitting,
but several of the cases are unusually
complicated and for this reason the ad
journment may be delayed until Thursday
evening. The court will hold only one more
scission before adjournment for the summer

SUPERIOR, Neb., June 4 (Special Tele
gram.) Representatives of fifteen milling
firms on the Republican river from Clay
Center, Kaa., northwest to the Colorado
line met here today and determined to give
the Irrigators the fight of their lives for the
waters of that stream. The organization
bears the name of the Republican Valley
Millers' association mid has no other object
than protection of the water.
There was but little discussion. Every
miller says there is but one thing to do,
and tbat tu bring suit at once against tome
irrigator, making the case a test. The
burden of litigation is to be borne by the
association. Recent decisions by the Ne
braska supreme court, which in effect give
the right to the waters to the owners of
riparian rights as against Irrigators, have
greatly encouraged the millers. The asso
ciation adjourned sine die, but it is under
stood that It will be called together at
Orleans, Neb., In about three weeks, when
II will be determined where they will
strike.

saying that she was going to the den

Frank Valenta were seen In a buggy driv

tried to get married by license, but the
girl was under age. This disappointment
and the fact that the girl's parents were
opposed to young Valenta was the cause
of the double attempted suicide. The doc

MOISTURE OF BENEFIT TO SMALL GRAIN
Hnllrnnd In All Direction itrport
l'reelpltntlon Which lln Proved
of lnetlinnhlc Value at
Critical Period.
All of Nebraska, the entire northern
half of Kansas, the western end of Iowa
and the entire cattle range country of
Wyoming and South Dakota were covered
by tho rain which fell Monday night.
Railroad headquarters are replete with re
ports of the vast extent of the downpour,
and happiness and Jollity are prevalent
down railroad row. The Jealousy aroused
in the breast of the Nebraska enthusiast
yesterday by the tales of the wonderful
watering the Black Hills had received gave
way for congratulatory Joy today when
It was learned how general had been last
night's visitation. Railroaders say tbat the
value of the wetting can hardly be over
estimated. "Thit rain was worth (7,000,000," was
the edict that came from the office of
George F. Bidwell, general manager of the
Elkhorn line.
"More than that," asserted the repre
sentative ot another road. "It was worth
that much to Nebraska alone, and four
other states were benefited In lesser de
grees." "It came at a crucial time" ssld Arthur
B. Smith, assistant general passenger agent
of the Burlington, "although we could have
stood it a while longer."
Precipitation In Wlilepread.
When the clouds opened upon Omaha
Monday night no one had any Idea of the
extent of the rain nor hope that it would
be so widespread, but the headquarters of
four big railroad companies were busy yes
terday telling Just how much of their
different systems It had covered.
"Every inch o our line and that of the
Sioux City & Pacific was under It" said an
Elkhorn official and a map was necessary to
a full realization of what this meant. From
Casper almost n the center of Wyoming,
clear into Omaha, every station said good
rain. Also fro a Bellefourcbe, at the
northern extremity of the Black Hills,
down through South Dakota to the other
line was this true. Then the branch from
Omaha to Hastings accounted for that part
of the state similarly, while the extreme
south of the state was vouched for by
Superior, which is only a few miles from
Kansas. A tale of water came also from
Sioux City nnd down the Iown side of the
river from there to Omaha Fremont and
Lincoln completed the story.
The Burlington people told of a general
i:'n In Nebraska from the Colorado line
east. Along the southern line it started at
Oxford and ranged from half an Inch to an
Inch and three-quarters from there, becom
ing heavier as It progressed eastward. Al
liance was the western extremity of the
wetness on the northern division.
That Kansas was not neglected was ap
parent from the reports at Missouri Pacific
headquarters. From Omaha down to Atchi
son and thence along to Kansas City rain
had fallen and from there out west along
the middle of the state through Yuma and
Lenora to Hoxle and Smith Center the same
was true. The Nebraska departments of
the road also added their testimony to that
of the other lines.
Union Pacific people closed the matter by
announcing rain all along the Nebraska
portion of the road, ranging from light to
heavy.
Salrnllnn for Smnll Crnln.
Small grain is what needed the water
most and will profit from it. Wheat was
already heading out and the situation in
portions of Nebraska both as regards that
crop and oats was becoming critical. Corn,
oo, will receive its share of the blessing.
although conditions were not so stringent
with this later grain.
Forecaster Welsh of the Weather bureau
reports that from advices received irom
Monday night's rain it is ascertained that
all of eastern Nebraska received a thorough
wetting down, the rainfall vnrylng from
one-quarter of an Inch to six tines that
amount. Falrbury reported a fall of 1.56
Inches. Tbo fall at this point was .44 of
an Inch. All of Nebraska cast of the 100th
meridian was favored with more or less
rain. The meridian runs through the cen-
er of the state Just east of North Platte.
There was none at the latter point, and
such as fell west ot that line was in light.
desultory showers Monday morning. The
rain was general through the Missouri
valley and Kansas was favored like Ne
braska. Jeneron Itnln Uver rwhrre.
Special reports to The Bee Indicate a fall
of from one to two Inches of rain over
nearly all the state, greatly benefiting all
crops. Fruit trees are reported hanging
full and in good condition. Among the
sections reporting good rains are: Bur
well, North Loup, Rogers, Madison, gen
eral over York county, Linwood, Hastings,
Exeter, Shelton. Rising City, Pierce, Val
paratso, Edgar, Geneva, Fremont, Leigh, all
of Garfield county, Syracuse, West Point,
Wlsner, Columbus, Schuyler, Wymore, Su

A heavy ball at Gibson damaged the fall
grain and sugar beets.

OMAHA HEADQUARTERS SUFFER MOST
Inevitable Itrsalt Will Up to lime

That Mionld 1'nll to
Achrnsknns,
Considerable dissatisfaction Is found
among railway mall clerks and railway
of .uch an orace at tha. ., Tne Omaha
headquarters seems to have suffered most
from the location of headquarters at Sioux
City, for under the new regime, which
has been In operation nbout n month, a
large number of clerks who were formerly
required to report at the Omaha office re
port at Sioux City. The list Includes
clerks on the following lines of railway
Elkborn. Between Missouri Valley and
Long Pine, 12 clerks; between Scrlbner
and Oakdale, 2 clerks; between Chadron
and Casper, 3 clerks; between Long Pine
and Deadwood, 5 clerks. The Chicago, St.
Paul, Minneapolis fc Omaha road Be
tween Sioux City and Omaha, 6 clerks; be
tween Emerson and Norfolk, 1 clerk; be
tween Hartlngton and Bloomfleld, 1 clerk,
Also the Sioux City & O'Neill branch of
the Great Northern road, two clerks.
These clerks formerly reported at Omaha,
and under the new order are required to
report at Sioux City, although six of the
thirty-two live In Omaha and many of the
others In Council Bluffs, Missouri Valley
and other points nearer Omaha than Sioux
City.
Anno Hallway ORlclnl.
Officials of the railways Interested, nota
bly the Elkhorn, are especially annoyed by
the change and have said that it appeared
to them to be a very curious movement
upon the part of the authorities to take
the general office for the clerks on their
lines away from the point at which the
headquarters ot the railway are located,
When the general office of the railway
clerks Is located at the point at which is
located the headquarters of the railway over
which they operate the transaction of bus
iness Is greatly facilitated and a great deal
ot annoyance otherwise necessitated Is
avoided.
Railway mall clerks are not required, of
course, to live at the location of the gen
eral office to which they report, but It is
necessary that they shall live at some point
near It. Removal of headquarters for any
considerable number of them from one city
or another, therefore, means something
commercially to the cities interested and
more or less Inconvenience and expense
to the clerks themselves. The success of
Sioux City In becurlng the establishment
of a general office at that point is accred
ited to the activity nnd potentiality of the
Iowa Influence In Washington, and it Is
noticeable that, while a few clerks had
headquarters transferred to that point from
Des Moines, the larger number were pulled
from the Omaha end, thus diminishing the
prestige of the office at this point.
Ilcpnrtlug from Cntom.
Under customs that have prevailed in the
division of railway mail service divisions
Into chief clerks' districts the work of a
district has been located westward of the
general office. Under that custom the Ne
braska chief clerks were entitled to the
territory In the state, but up at Sioux City,
they have located an office on the western
boundary of tho Iowa territory to reach
over Into this state and grab part of the
territory that should be under the dominion
of the chief clerks of this state. The In
evitable effect of this will be to have ulti
mately a lot of Iowa clerks transacting the
business that should be done by Nebraska
clerks.
This condition is deemed of sufficient Im
portance to merit some attention from the
Nebraska delegation in Washington and It
will probably be brought to Senator Mil
lard's attention within a few days, as well
as to that of the Commercial club.
William Wooward of Decatur, la., writes:
"I was troubled with kidney disease for
several years and four one dollar size bot
tles of Foley's Kidney Cure cured me. I
would recomend It to anyone who has kid
ney trouble."

Our Working

Life to the most favored is not always
full of Btinshlnc, but to the average
American plrl or woman who is obliged
to work for her living, and, perhaps
to help others at home, life is often a
heavy drag in consequence of illness.
Women who work, especially those
who are constantly on their feet, are
peculiarly liable to the development
of organic troubles, and should par
ticularly heed the first manifestations,
such as backache, pains in the lower
limbs and lower part of the stomach,

now wishes her name used to convince
