. offices. John B. Wright of Lincoln, grand
master of the exchequer, and Will H. Love
of Lincoln, grand keeper of the records
and seal. wr rc-lected without opposition
and James IL Btlne, Omaha, was elected
to the offke of grand vie chancellor by
unanimous vote, but on nearly all of the
other offices there was more or less compe
tition. Frank J. Keller of Lincoln was
elected grand chancellor; E. C. Cross,
Wilier, grand prelate; F. A. Thompson,
t
it- ) m
Crawford, grand master-at-arms; W. H.
Ingles, Ilarrtsburg, grand Inner guard;
Frank Clements, Eagle, grand outer guard;
W. E. Rosenkrans, Elmwood, grand, lodge
trustee for three years.
The election had been made 'a special
order of business for 10:80 and the 'earlier
portions of the morning waa devoted to an
exemplification of the secret work by Su
preme Representative O'Neill of Lincoln;
The rank of past chancellor was also con
ferred upon a number of those who ar
rived too late to receive it Tuesday.
Per Capital Tax Reduced.
X resolution recommended . by ' Past

of the Rathbone Bisters were entertained
yesterday evening at a reception given by
Lillian temple cf this city in Myrtle hall.
The grand lodge elosed Its final session
at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon. It had

fair were carried on so expeditiously that
the conclusion was reached at an early
hour. Lincoln was decided on as the place
of next meeting for the grand lodge, and the
time of meeting the second Tuesday in Oc

The Irrret at a Haeceeafal Mereaaat.
The success of a merchant depends
largely vpon his ability to please his cus
tomers. In order to do so he recommends
only artlclea which are to bis knowledge
most reliable. In handling medicine thla is
especially true, as people desire the best
preparation .en the market .and appreciate
the recommendation of their druggist. Here
Is what V. J. Leight of Houae Springs, Mo.,
says of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy: "I
can recommend Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy to my customers to be second to none
on the market. For croup with vhlldrca

Although officials of the Omaha Street
Railway company decline to discuss -the
matter, information comes from reliable
sources that the purchase of the local rail
way properties by J. . V W. Sellgman
co. or New York has reached the etage
where . the transfer of stock has actually
begun. Aa was published In The Be Tues
day, local banker stated that his bank
alone handled over 3100,000 worth of this
stock Monday' and that other banks were
engaged In similar transactions. Tbls was
regarded as conclusive of the transfer of
the stock, and since then further evidence
has been obtained to substantiate tbls.
A director of the railway company waa
asked yesterday for Information on tbls sub
ject, but declined to disclose what officials
of the company would not.
"Co not these transactions at the banks
clearly indicate that the stock Is actually
changing hands?" was asked.
"I should certainly think so," waa the
reply.-
President Murphy waa again approached
as to the status of the deal and said:
"Matters are in the sama shape they were
three weeks ago. There is nothing new
and therefore nothing to be given to the
press that would throw any new light upon
the reports already published. Some of the
local banks may be In possession of checks
of this company; I do not know as to that,
but that is not especially significant."
