Joyce and Clark Bound Over.
PAPILLION, Neb., Msy 2. (Special Tele
gram.) Tom Joyce and John Clark, who
were arrested and charged with the murder
Of Edward Wood near Fort Crook on the
evening of April 20, were arraigned before
Judge Wilson last Monday and each pleaded
not guilty and their hearing waa aet for
Thursday. The prisoners were brought Into
court yesterday morning. The examlnatiou
of about fifty witnesses took all day and
part of ths night, and all this forenoon, and
after weighing the testimony Judge Wilson
bound them over to the district court.
After a continuous aale for two months
the colonist rates for west coast points ex
pired laat Wednesday, leaving behind them
a record of a passenger traffic so enormous
that the otal haul la fully double that of
any prevloua year under similar ratea. Now
paaaenger and. operating officials of ths dif
ferent transcontinental railroada intimately
concerned In thla colonist travel are specu
lating as to whether such a rate will ever
again be established, and If ao, whether It
will be for a shorter or longer time of sale.
The effect of the colonist rstes has been
felt by Omaha railroada from their Incep
tion, but the laat gaap was by all means
the most strenuous. This came yesterday
when the people who had bought their
tickets on the lsst dsy of sale at points
farther eaat were Just coming through
Omaha. It seems that many cross-country-to-stsy
travelers delayed their journey till
the last minute and the result was that yes
terday's colonist business through Omaha
excelled that of any prevloua day, not ex
ceptlng the beginning day cf the rate. The
visible effect her was that Burlington No.
I. westbound, bsd to be run out In two sec-
.. tlons and that every one of the three long
Vnlon Paclfio through tralna to the coast
, carried from one to three extra coaches,
and that every car on each train was loaded
to the guards.
Just now the statua and time of ths next
colonist rate la causing puch discussion.
Th two months' continuous sale just ended
was an entirely new method, as In 1901 col
onist tickets were sold only on Tuesdays
The new plan baa proved far more aatlsfsc
tory, for It has served to distribute the
business more evenly. This one point was
really the reason for making the aale date
continuous, and It was from the operating
departments of the roada that th demand
for such an arrangement came.
One prominent official said he would not
be surprised to see the colonists' rata in
effect again next fall. "We'll kick on that,"
said another. - "W want to do a paying
business a email part of th year, at
leaat. It'a bad enough to haul thousands of
people west at a eeat a mile In the spring,
without doubling up oa It and running the
rats again In th fall." Should this fall
rat b put la It will be th first time. It
Is $25 from the Missouri river and $3$ from
Chics ro.
"Probably 60,000 people wer carried to
California, Oregon and Waahingtoa en eol
on 1st rate by all roada during March aa
April." said another official. "They cam
from all over the country. Nebraska giving
Its share. Thla did not deplete the popula
tlon In this stats any. however, tor horn
esters' rates wer la effect during the
same period, and th people who cam tato
Nebraska oa those far outnumber those whs
went out aa colonists. This aomeseegera
rat obtalaa oa th first and third Tuesday
of every month, and' It brings us people
irosa Indiana, Illinois, Missouri and low
chiefly. This rat has at ba disoantln
ed. and I expect to see it carried oa for
several months yet," ,
Another metal bllevs that th animus
against th rat Is so strong with several of
th larger railroada latretd that th

After consultation with 'the other dls-
rlct judges Judge Baxter has continued
the Unitt-Mlller contest hearing over
Into the May term of court, which begins
Monday. Miller's attorneys did not con-
alder that this could be dona and took
an exception, on which they will hang
part of their caae should they be defeated
her and forced to take It Into th supreme
court.
When the hearing Is resumed Monday
the first move of the Incumbent will be
to attack the sufficiency of Unltt's bonds
and secure a ruling on a point that Is K
dispute between the attorneys of the
respective sides. The first bond filed by
Unltt was his contest bond to cover the
costs Incurred In county court, and the
1 goers to It were W. J. Broatch and
former Sheriff John H. McDonald. He
lost there and appealed to the district
court, filing an appeal bond signed by John
H. Butler, formerly a city hall attache.
Broatch and McDonald, It Is told, now
affirm that when the appeal bond waa filed
they were relieved of any further respon
slblllty and can be held for only the costs
Incurred In county court, which amount
to something more than $100. Miller's at.
torneya take the other view, that Broatch
and McDonald are held with Butler for the
district court costs, and base their argu
ment on aectlon 82, chapter xxvl, which
reads:
The contestant must file a bond, with se
curity, to be approved by the clerk of the
court or county judge, aa tne case may ne,
conditioned to pay all costs In case the
election be confirmed, the complaint dla
missea or tne prosecution rail.
"Now that section." commented Attorney
Abbott, "doesn't say anything about the
bond applying only t county court costs
and I contend It means them all. But should
the court decide otherwise we shall thsn
attack the sufficiency of Butler's bond
Piling up againat this bond are costs which
cannot amount to less than $1,000 and
which I believe will be mor than $2,600.
The witnesses draw $2 per day for every
day they appear In court and there will be
very nearly If not quit 500 of them. This
Is a matter In which we cannot afford to be
careless, as Miller haa to advance th
money to pay these witnesses and then de
pend on recovering from I'nltt after the
contest is defeated.
"At present, I understand fellow demo
crats In offic are making up a purs to
assist Mr. Miller In meeting this expense,
but the source of Unltt's revenue Is a mys
tery to me, unless It Is Dave Mercer's cam
paign fund. To me. It appears that some
body must be very anxious to get a hold on
the county clerk's offic for future us.

Omaha, the plea in which waa entered late
Thursday afternoon. In this, as In many
cases previously filed, the plaintiff has
attacked the petition In what has been
heretofore Its most vulnerable point by
raising the "homestead" question. i The
contention has been that a petition for
street Improvements constitutes a Hen
against shutting property, and If any of
this property happens to be homesteads It
must be signed by both the husband and
wife.
Substance of the Ruling;.
The substsnce of Judge Keysor's ruling
follows:
The court, however, specially finds that
the petition of the property owners in Im
provement district 566 was In all respects
sufficient to give the council Jurisdiction to
order the paving, curbing and guttering in
said district 566 and that the petition of
the property owners Hied with the city
clerk, presented to the city council, ask
ing for the grading of said William street
In grading district No. 72, was In all re
spects sufficient and valid and gave the
council Jorlsdlctlon to order said grading
and levy assessments against the property
in said district therefor.
The court further finds as a matter of
law that the provisions of the statute re
lating to the pinning and execution of en
cumbrances upon homesteads do not apply
to the signing of petitions for special im
provements and further finds as a matter
of law that the petitions of property own
ers for special Improvements provided for
by the charter in cities of the metropolitan
class are not encumbrances within the
meaning of said homestead act.

"Th effect of this ruling will be to clear

because we thought the law required It, but
because we wanted to avoid trouble. In
order to make the point perfectly clear w
shall probably try to get a supreme court
ruling on the same question.
"This 'homestead' point has always been
the weakest point in such petitions and It
has given the city a great deal of trouble."

Every physician of large practice has had the experience of being called on to
attend women wno imagined that they were in the last stages of some dire female
malady, when upon examination the fact was revealed that obstructed physiology of
the stomach or bowels was the whole cause of the trouble.
The physician, however, who has not had experience may fall into the error of
diagnosing grave diseases of the female system when they do not exist, because
disorders of the bowels may be neglected until they give many of the appearances of '
female disease. The bowels have been known to become so clogged with hardened
contents as to produce a condition closely resembling uterine displacement, uterine
prolapse (falling of the womb) and the sick headache which is often attributed to
female diseases is most often actually due to some trouble in the digestive machinery
involving the liver, stomach, bowels or the great " Solar Plexus," which is the central
telegraph station from which nervous messages are transmitted to and from all the
organs in the abdominal cavity.
