This is the ticket nominated by the demo
crats of the Fourth judicial district in con
vention at Jacknonlan hall yesterday after
noon, It is the endorsement of the slate
prepared by part of the Douglas County
Bar association, with the exception of A. N.
Ferguson, who was named In place of Her
man Aye of Blair, the latter having re
fused a nomination after being defeated
In the republican convention. Judges Day,
Ketelle and Baxter are regular republican
homlneea.
Opponents to the non-partisan ticket at
prepared kicked up considerable dust In
the convention, but their tactics merely
prolonged the meeting and effected no ob
struction whatever to the well oiled plan
of the dominant demooratio leaders. It ro-
qulred an hour to do the business and the
delegates were so anxious to get away that
they declined to listen to a speech from
Edgar Howard of Columbus, who had ob
served the spectacle. Howard therefore
stood in the doorway and grasped the
hands of his "admirers" as they Died out.
Sort of erto-Comedy.
The doings had comlo essence all the way
through. When Chairman Ed P. Smith
called the convention to order there was
a crowd of Interested republicans hanging
about the door. Mr. Smith made no ado
about calling the convention to order. He
told the delegates to get buoy. J. II,
Cameron, a venerable democrat, with an
umbrella which he used as a gavel, was
chosen chairman, and J. A. C, Kennedy
was named as secretary. Mr. Cameron
apparently had as little taste for speech
as Mr. Bmlth and for a while sat staring
blankly at the opposite wall while waiting
for something to happen. After a decorous
period a delegate proposed that as there
were no contests those present be accredited
as delegates and vote for absentees. This
was arranged end roll call was dispensed
with.
Eventually the chairman discerned a man
standing In the rear of the room, and
rapping loudly with his umbrella, called for
sllenoe. The voloe of W. 8. Shoemaker
broke the silence. Shoemaker advanced the
Information that many democrats had con
sidered it wise to endorse the bar ticket
but, he remarked, considerable feeling had
been engendered against one candidate.
liven he threw tiny bouquets at Dickinson,
Day, Eetelle, Read, Page and Ferguson,
leaving only Baxter undecorated.
Smith for Equality.
This forgetfulness secured a flse out of
Ed P. Smith, who declared emphatically
that If anyone from the bar ticket was en
dorsed they all ought to be endorsed. The
advantage to be gained, he said, would lie
bv the fact that the nominees were chosen
by tho lawyers acting; for the best inter
ests of the people.
"I want a Judge," he announced, "who
Is above politics, above religion, above
money and above ulterior Influences of
every kind." Judge Baxter is ambitious
without measure, he dcclarjd, but a more
honest, upright judge never sat upon the
bench."
, Colonel Hopper wanted tho two demo
cratic candidates. Page and Ferguson, nom
mated by acclamation first, and to let the
remainder "of this non-parttBan outfit"
take their chances later. C. B. Montgomery
thought the same way and had some other
thoughts whloh he Insisted upon infusing
into the convention, although many ruda
efforts were made to induce him to forget
all about It and sit down.
The chair, which had been busy making
rulings declaring all motions and amend
ments to nominate anything less than the
whole ticket out of order, then suddenly
found that It was wrong and reversed Its
decision. This caused long ana vociferous
yelling for a vote, but Carl C. Wright
bravely stemmed the current and at last
calmed the troubled sea. He talked for
ten minutes with great fervof, telling trjc
delegates that If they Intended to make
any kind of a non-partisanship plea they
would have to lump the bar ticket as nearly
as they could or the people would laugh at
them. J. J. O'Conner followed along the
same lines, adding that Judge Baxter was
all right and that he was always on hand
whether It was a mandamus that was
wanted or something else."
boot Darts at tho Bar.
C. 8. Montgomery and F. B. Munn cast
a few sauoy darts at the bar meeting that
put up the slats and Mr. Munn was In
vited to sit down by an unnamed- voice
and said ho wouldn't but Anally did, ap
parently having said his say.
Finally the chairman, by dint of valiant
effort and persistently charging unruly
members and subduing them by brandish
ing his umbrella, succeeded In quelling the
tornado that had ensued.
Secretary Kennedy called the roll. On
the nomination of Page and Ferguson the
chairman had declared the ayes in the
majority. The strict accounting, however,
found lihi ayes to SSti noes. The bar can
didates were then nominated, with the sub
stitution of Ferguson for Herman Aye, by
a vote of 1144 to t. This nomination was
made unanimous In the following manner:
The Chairman The vote la upon a motion
to make the nominations unanimous. All
In favor of the motion will say aye.
The Convention Aye (loud and long
drawn out).
Groans from tho Fallen.
The Chair Gentlemen, tho ayes have It.
The nominations are unanimous. (Groans
from the vanquished.)
None of the nominees were In sight, so
Carl C. Wright presented a resolution de
claring that the democracy approved the
principal of a nonpartisan Judiciary and
that the ticket nominated was presented to
raise Die standard of the bench. It was
adopted "unanimously," while a man who
claimed to be a country delegate vocifer
ated his belief In a straight democratic
ticket and a straight democratic ticket
only.
Ed P. Smith was re-elected ehalrman of
the Judicial committee, while he protested
that he didn't want the Job, having piloted
two Judicial tickets to defeat. He and
Candidates Page and Ferguson were au
t ho r lied to select the ether, members of
ina committee.

Only two more Ak-Sar-Ben initiation
nights tomorrow night and the succeeding

the long ago, the command as to ths proper
manner for knights to step. And all of
them, by Samson's command, will be step
ping that way tomorrow night and Monday
night of next week.
That Is, all knights who do not bring
with them to ths den on or more candi
dates, for to such knights special honor will
bo paid by tho grand mufti and they will

to reserve space Immediately, thereby se

management tn making the final plans of
the grounds.
Fair iWlth Carnival.
Under final arrangements made yesterday
the Douglas county fair will bs held in
connection with the carnival. It will occupy
the west side of Nineteenth from Douglas
to Farnam and the east side of Nineteenth
from Douglas to the alley. The county fair
this year will, Secretary Hervey of the
Douglas County Agricultural society states,
be larger and better than any year In the
paBt. This is not simply "fair" talk, Mr.
Hervey says, "but Is what is expected on
acoount of ths change in making exhibits
and awarding prixes. There will, of course,
be Individual exhibits In ths different
olasses, ss in past years, but in addition
there will be precinct collective exhibit,
just as there are county collective exhibits
at stats fairs. This plan of collective ex
hibits has made a big hit and been very
successful wherever tried, and the fair
managers believe It will be a big success
here.
Manager Pony Moors has assigned the
tennis grounds on the north side of Farnam
between Eighteenth and Nineteenth to Thad
Sowder's broncho busters. Bowder Is the
cowboy and broncho buster who appeared
especially before King Edward and who
"broke" ths western horse now ridden by
President Roosevelt, who is one of his per
sonal friends. He traveled for a number
of years as chief cowboy with Buffalo Bill,
but now has a show of his own, which Is
not a show of all nations, but of Its class
has never been, squalled or even approached
by any other combination. Jack Wright
and a number of other noted cowboys are
with the show, and they have ths biggest
number of outlaw horses, Including Topedo,
ever brought together.
Negotiations with the Hawaiian Glee club
have been concluded and the club, it can
positively bo announced, will be here. There
are sixteen members, including all those
who made such a success of the Hawaiian
village and so many friends in Omaha dur
ing the Greater American exposition.
CATCHES ACHEAP THIEF
Man Who Robbed Street Car Men's
Clnb Box Is IVeteoted in
tbe Act.
Night Foreman Albert J. Beall of the
street railway company Is being congratu
lated by his friends for accomplishing a
smooth piece of detective work in a case
In which the thief had escaped detection
for soma tlms, although all manner of
schemes havs been tried to detect him.
The employes of tho street railway com
pany havs a club room over ths Ames ave
nue car barn. The monthly dues collected
from each member of the club amount to
16 cents. Owing to tho fact that it Is not
convenient for the members to see the sec
retary of tho organization each month for
tho purpose of paying their dues, a box
was arranged with a slot In It In the club
rooms Into which ths money enclosed in
an envelope with the payee's name upon It
could bo dropped. All of the members havs
been In the habit of dropping their 16 cents
In monthly, and their names havs been
posted on a blackboard in the room at ths
end of each month so that all might see
who were In good standing. When tho 1st
of August arrived a large number of names
did not appear on the board, and a strenu
ous kick was flled by many of ths mem
bers who had put their money in ths box.
Only ons solution was off -ed for ths prob
lem. The box had been robbed. When
September 1 came around with Ilka results,
It was decided that something had to be
done. A watch was placed to try and de
tect ths thief, but It was of no avail. Fin
ally Foreman Bealls took tho matter tn
hand. He opened the box and pasted a
piece of paper over ths slot When he
examined the paper the following day there
were a number of small holes punched
through It. This was enough for the fore
man and he Immediately arranged a strip
of tin over the slot and connected It up
with a wire. A bell was attached to the
other end of the wire and placed on the
wall tn the office. Yesterday the bell rang
and Mr. Beall rushed upstairs. He found
the thief in the act of inserting a small
hook In the slot The name of ths guilty
party would not be divulged by the fore
man. He is an employe of the company
and a member of the club, but he will prob
ably not feel very comfortable when he
looks the other club members in the face
hereafter. Twelve dollars was ths total
amount secured by the thief during the
past six weeks.

CHANGE IN 0 R. REUNIONS
plasi ta Make Omaha Gathering Last
of Kind lader Supervtsloa of
.tat Department.
The Grand Array of the Republic atste
reunion at Hastings, which has closed,
Is pronounced a big success. The next state
reunion will be held in Omaha next year.
It is regarded as quits probable that after
ths Omaha reunion ths practice of holding
these reunions under the direct supervision
of the stats Grand Army of the Republic
department will be abandoned, and that
district reunions will be substituted there
fore. However, there will be ons general
state reunion which will likely be either
at 14 n coin or Omaha each year. The stats
reunion following so closely after ths annual
department encampment which latter ars
merely the official delegate gatherings of the
department. It Is thought involves too
much detail work upon ths department offic
ials and are often confused with the stats
encampments. For this resson the general
reunions will hereafter be left in charge of
the localities In which they are held with
out reference to the official recognition of
the state Grand Army of ths Republlo
department.
