PAYS TO SEE THE PADLOCK
Nebraska Farmer la Buncoed Out of
Ills Money by Three
Sharper.
C. H. Fowler, a farmer from Arcadia,
Neb., realized last evening that there was
considerable truth In the axiom that ex
perience teaches. It cost him Just $28 to
see the glass works and become acquainted
with the mysteries of the padlock bunco
game. Fowler was waiting at Ninth and
Douglas streets for a Council Bluffs motor
when a stranger entered into conversation
with him. The stranger was also watltug
for a car and auggested that while waiting
they take a walk across the bridge and look
at the glass works. It would be on their
way, he explained. Fowler had read about
glass works, but had never seen one. He
waa willing.
Near the east end of the bridge the
stranger picked uo a padlock and then
Fowler began to get some experience. They
were Joined by a second stranger and Fow
ler was accumulating experience. Then
came the climax. A third stranger appeared
on the acene. He was a policeman and
wore a star. He placed all three under
arrest. Fowler did not like" the Idea of
being arrested, so was perfectly willing to
give the policeman all the money he had,
$28, to secure the release of himself and
his two newly made friends, who appeared
to be equally frightened.
As soon ae the money was In the hands
of the policeman Fowler's two companions
had buainess elsewhere, aa had the man
with the star, and Fowler waa left alone to
admire the scenery at the east end of the
bridge and with an empty pocketbook. It
finally dawned on him that perhaps he had
been buncoed, ao to make certain he walked
Into Council Bluffs and told his story to
the police. He later returned to Omaha on
car ticket provided him by Captain
Maltby.

IGNORE BUILDING ORDINANCE
Contractors and Others Almost I'nl-
versally Neleet to Take Ont
Bulldlns; Permits.
The city authorities have decided to rig
idly enforce the ordinance relative to build
ing permits and all persons will be re
quired to secure a permit before either
erecting any building or making repairs
Contractors and others have to a great ex
tent Ignored the ordinance and comparison
between the number of buildings now in
course of construction throughout the city
and the records of tha city clerk show a
large discrepancy.
Fire Chief Templetoa and Chief of Police
Tlbblts have been instructed to at once
check up the number of buildings now in
course of construction or which have been
erected since the beglnntcg of this year
and report back to the c'.ty authorities In
order that it may be ascertained which per
mits have been issued for.
The fee for a building ptrmlt no matter
what the cost of the building may be. Is
merely a nominal one, bC centa, and the
permits are more for the purpose of ensb
ling the city to have a record of what
building la being done, especially within
the Are limits, than for tiie revenue which
might be derived. The ordinance provides
that failure to take out a building permit
ahall subject the person building to a fine
not exceeding $100.
City offlclMa who have given the matter
some attention lately assert that from $50,
000 to $100,000 worth of building Is now
going on In the city for which no permits
have ever been Issued. Among the num
ber are aevsrsl 0ns realiences coating from
$5,oo upward.

TEACHERS MUST PAY DEBTS
Board of Education Incorporates that
Clause In Contract of All
Employes.
All employes of the school district, and
this applies equally to teachers and Jani
tors, will be required to pay their debts
promptly or else lose their positions. This
requirement will be incorporated In the
contracts which they will be called upon
to sign this year. This waa decided upon
at the meeting of the Board of Education
last night, the matter being ( brought up
by Member Macrae, who stated that com
plaint had been made to him that a num
ber of the teachers and the Janitors re
fused to pay their Just debts after secur
ing credit on the strength of their employ
ment in the schools.
Member Hess protested against the In
sertion of any such clause In the contracts
on the grounds that In his opinion it was
casting a slur on the teachers. While there
might be, he said, a few teachers who were
not prompt In paying their bills, he believed
it was rather the exceptto nthan the rule,
Macrae's motion carried despite Hess' pro
test.
Member Macrae also brought up again
the question of dispensing with a supervisor
of kldergartene. He auggested that the
principals In each building be required to
acquaint themselves with that class of
work so to be able to give personal super
vision to the kindergartens In their respec
tive buildings. He spoke at lengths on the
subject and suggested that during the com
ing school year the principals be made
acquainted with the kindergarten work by
the supervisor, so that a year from now
the services of a general supervisor for the
kindergarten can be dispensed with. The
board discussed the question for fully an
hour, but took no action. Superintendent
Clifford reported that a balance of $46.45
remained over from the proceeds of sale
of tickets for the commencement exercises
after all expenses had been liquidated, and
permission was given to place the money
to the credit of the High school library
fund.. This Is the first year that the board
has not been called upon to appropriate
money to clean up the bills of the com
mencement exercises.
Member Hess was granted the use of the
auditorium of the High school for a lec
ture by Prof. M. C. Brumbaugh on June
28, the proceeds of which will go to swell
the High school library fund.
T. A. Befwlck was re-elected supervisor
of grounds and buildings and these Janitors
were elected: High school, Charles Bailey;

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES. June 17. (Special.)
Justice C. M. Waterman of the supremo
court of Iowa has sent his resignation to
Governor Cummins and will Immediately
retire from the supreme bench. He will
enter the law practice In Davenport with
Joseph R. Lane, ex-member of congress.
Justice Waterman was twelve yeara on
the district bench, where his record was
unexcelled, and he has now served four
years on the supreme bench. Next year he
would have become chief Justice In the or
der of rotation of the office, and if elected
again, which he could be If he eo desired,
he would have an Increased salary amount
ing to $8,000 a year for his second term.
His resignation means that there will be
two Judges nominated at the republican
state convention. Another term Is con
ceded to Chief Justice Scott M. Ladd of
Sheldon.
In the contest last year Judge Towner
of Corning, Judge Dewey of Washington,
Judge Church of Jefferson, Judge Weaver of
Iowa Falls and Judge Bishop of Des Moines
were candidates. Bishop withdrew when it
became evident Cummins would be nomi
nated for governor, and Church waa not
atrong. Dewey haa been eliminated aa a
possibility by defeat for renomlnatlon as
district Judge In his own county. Judgo
Towner of Corning will likely become at
once the most formidable candidate for the
place occupied by Waterman on the bench.
Governor Cummins this evening decided
he would appoint Judge Charles A. Bishop
of Des Moines to the supreme bench to
succeed Judge Waterman, resigned. Bishop
will also be the leading candidate for thq
nomination.
Blakemore for Commissioner.
It waa announced here today by W. D.
Blakemore of Taylor county that he will
be a candidate for the republican nomlns.
tlon for railroad commissioner. He had
been considered for the place some time
ago, but had apparently dropped the mat
ter, but arrived In the city today and was
in consultation with bis friends about the
position, stating that he would be a candi
date. He Is a member of the legislature and
made a creditable record and will receive
the support of the counties of the Eighth
district generally.
The other candldatea for the place are
N. S. Ketchum of Marshalltown, R. A. Daw
son of Waverly and S. Av Smith of Fort
Madison. It la generally believed that
Ketchum la in the lead for the place.
Drake Faculty Will Chance.
The trustees of Drake university are In

GAMBLERS CAMPAIGN CAUSE
Slonz City C'oneerna Fight for Pataage
of Ordinance Permlttlntr Their
Llcensend Operation.
SIOUX CITY, la., June 17. (Special Tele
gram.) Gambling in Sioux City has not
been stamped out. The gamblers today
made a sensational flank movement by ap
pearing before the mayor through their at
torney, O. W. Argo, and presented a formu
lated ordinance according to which they
will be allowed to operate in Sioux City
upon the payment of an annual license of
$2,400.
The gamblers make the claim that Sioux
City at present has no ordinance to pun
ish or prohibit gambling, the ordinance
passed In 18S2 to that effect waa Illegal,
they claim because not authorized by the
code. They cite decisions of the supreme
court In support of their contention and
have a good case.
The statute passed by the legislature in
1900 gave the Iowa municipalities such au
thority, but since then no such ordinance
