Agent Wilson turned over to lnnpector

came from Indian Commissioner Jotiea, ac
companied by a letter saying Rev. Father
Scheii of Homer. Neb., had been in Wash

led the department to bll;ve there were
many irregularities connected with (ha

which reached him but yis.erduy, revolu
tionising the order, of handling Indian

for Indian heirship lands t-ha'.l b disbursed
to t!ie Indians In, Installments and not in

the things Father Schell and Agent I s in
have been lighting for. These payment

It was agreed at the conference list

he can be present neither the speculators

for he knows the situation to a nicety, and
they realize that he knows it.

the Mondamin last night after the con
ference. ''If the Inspector wants all the
facts he can have them."
The Investigation may take six months,
Inspector Wright says. The Inspector, ac
companied Agent Wilson to the agency to
day and Father Schell went to Omaha to
confer with Bishop Scannell.
Before the conference of Agent Wilson,
Inspector Wright and Father Schell the
two latter had a long consultation at St.
Joseph's hospital, where Father Schell hns
been for ten days regaining his strength.
The priest outlined in detail tho reserva
tion matters and made numerous recom
mendations which the Inspector was urged
to Incorporate In his report to WaKhlngton.
Among these were the following:
Some Recommendations.
That the salary of the Winnebago agent
be increased from $1,200 to $l,iiiO, on ac
count of his added responsibility- In hav
ing to dishtirse tho funds of the indlaiu
In the new way.
That Agent .vlison. who Is thoroughly
conversant with the situation after hard
and conscientious investigation and stuilv
for a year, shall not lie tr.insfpired or re
moved fur at least a year.
That in case of a eiiuim.- in agents Mr.
Sharp, now In Agent Wilson's office, be
made agent, as he knows the field.
That the' Jielrshlp and leaso mnnev be
paid out monthly in reasonable, amounts.
That the government sturo be within the
reservation and conducted on the plan as
ably laid down by Agent Wilson, and store
hills paid monthly In the presence of th
agent, who will first investigate and sp
in ove them.
That outside dealers be discouraged from
selling to Indians, to guard against usury
;iinl the sale of whisky.
That the notes Kiven bv Indians for hor-
rowed money should not he paid because
of the usury and illegal sale of liquors In
volved. Thai outside, dealers should collect their
Mils when eoods are sold and not within
the reservation.
That horses, wagons and Implements
should he apprrised first by the agent be
fore tho Indians enter Into any bargain
with the traders.
That those traders who have brought
about the ruin of the Indians nhonld he
forbidden to transact any business with
the Indians within the reservation, or col
lect money within the reservation.
That one clerk In the office of the agent
be appointed guardian for all the minor
Indians, as the revenues would more than
pav for such a clerk.
That unclaimed Indian lands should be
allotted to Indians who have legitimate
claims, as such Inn is are now held by
whites without deeds or title and without
paving toxes or rent.
That all leasing of lands should be done
through the offlce and on terms approved
by the agent.
That notes now standing against the In.
dlans should be Ignored and itemised bills
required.
That notes to traders against the Indians
-should he ignored bv the office, which
might otherwise become a partner to the
extensive usurv and whisky sales by help
ing to collect these notes, which were pro
cured out'lde the rervatlpn and outside
of the office's iurisdletlon.
That a rule Is? made preventing Indians
from mortgaging their horses, wagons and
imnlmcnt and frum borrowing money for
whisky. . - -

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN. Oct. .-(Speclal.) The safe at
the Rock Island freight depot In this clty
was blown last night and I104.H taken by
two unidentified men. An attempt was also
made to rob the safe In the offlce of the
Lincoln Lumber company at Sixteenth and
O streets, but this proved unsuccessful, as
the men were frightened away before they
could complete the Job.
The robbery at the Rock Island depot
occurred shortly after 1 o'clock this morn
ing, as the clock on the wall stopped at
1:17, which was probably the time at which
the explosion took place. The men who
did the work had drilled holes in the safe
and used nltro-glycerlne to remove the
door. They employed an extra hnvy
charge, as the outer door of the safe was
r-blown across the room and the Imi-rlni lett
on the wall. After this the .robbers pried
the Inner door open and took the money.
Eighty dollars of this was In bills and the
rest In silver and small change. A few
burglars' tools were found In the room
this morning, together wlih the rubber
tube used In pouting the explosive Into the
drilled holes, but aside from that there Is
no clue to the identity of the men who did
the work. Nothing was known of the rob
bery until about 8 o'clock this morning,
when the freight agent went down to open
the office.
Ed Reeves, who drives a wagon for R. 8.
Young,, saw two suspicious characters,
hanging around the Rot :c Island yards last
evening. They had a small grip with them
and, as he says, were "rubbernecking" at
the buildings and offices In that vicinity.
If the robbery occurred near 1 o'clock, a
the stopped clock would Indicate, the men
Ijad plenty of time to catch the Rock
Island passenger train to the north, which

Foo. Bnll Players Go West.
;The Nebraska university foot ball team
left for Colorado at 3:20 o'clock this after
noon over the Rock Island railroad, where
they go tu play the State university team
at Boulder next Saturday. ' The following
men, with Coaches Booth and Weat-v-'er
and Manager Davie, made the trip: Mills.
Borg. Speer, C. Mason, Robertson, John
son, Benedict, Bender, Glenn Mason, Eager,
Richardson. Barta, Fenlon, Weller, Bar
wick, Standeven, Cotton and Marahlng.
Nearly every university student todiy
wore a little card fastenel by a string to
the lapel of the coat, railing on every ona
(o be down to the train to give the team a
rousirg send-off. The students responded
to this call and there was a cheering mob
present when the men clamberej on the
train for their Journey to the.west.
Every one Is counting on a victory in
Colorado, but the slse of the score Is a very
doubtful matter. The Colorado men. are
noted for their fighting qualities and even
with all the odds against them they never
know when they are defeated. Coach Booth
discovered this In the game played on the
Colorado grounds two years ago. and while
the chances this fall look better than then
the contest Is going to be no cinch.
It is announced today that the nun would
probably spend Sunday In Boulder and re
turn to Lincoln early Monday morning.

Tho senior class at the unlvers:tv held a

Hlckelson geeks Liberty.
James Mlchelson, a prlfoner from Gar
field county, now under, EenteiTcc of one
year in the state penitentiary on the
charge of giand larce.iy, a ught, through
hiu attorney, T. J. Doyle, to secure his
freedom under a rlt of habeas corpus
befor Judge Holmes this morning.
August It Mlchelson was trld and con
victed on the charge named before Judgo
Hanna in Garfield county at a special term
of the district courl. The trial waa con
ducted without a Jury of twelve good
men, it being stipulated that a Jury would
be waived.
Mr. Loyle contended that according to
the constitution of the stale there coild
be no trial and cor.vlctljn of a pe:son, be
cause It explicitly holds that such trial
must take place before a regular Jury of
twelve men. He declared that the su
preme court of Nebraska and of other
states hold that no one could waive his
right to trial by Jury.
Judge Holmes said that he agreed with
Mr. Doyle that the trial of the prisoner
was void, but he obectsd to deciding the
matter when it properly belongs to the
court where the prisoner had been triad.
Deputy Attorney General Norrls Brown
was not inclined to question the statement
of the opposing counsel that the tentence
waa void by the failure to order a Jury
trial, but he did not think that this court
had any Jurisdiction. It should be taken
directly to the supreme court. He de
clared that the district court here did
not have any higher powers than the one
that held its term In Garfield county. He
thought' that there was the place to ask;
for a writ of habeas corpus If It was de
aired to seek relief from the lower tribunal
first.
Lanenster Oonnty Mast Pay.
Lancaster county must pay the face of
the Midland Pacific bonds, which were Is
sued In 1873 to aid In the conatruotlcn of a
line to connect Lincoln with the Union Pa
cific. The supreme court at this sitting
has handed down a decision to the effect
that regardless of all other facta the
county would be liable to pay the bonds
unless they were absolutely null and void,
because in the suit brought iK test (he
validity In 1SSS by Charles E. I.ewls the
case waa compromised . by a reduction of
the interest rat from 10 to IVj per cent.
Since that time until 103. when a suit was
brought by a Lancaster county taxpayer,
Thomas Cajburn. to test their validity,
the county regularly paid the intereat and
redeemed two of the bonds. This the
court states is further reason why the
Issue should not be held Void.
Saandera Canary to Pay.
- Baunders county must bear Its share of
the cost of the Platte river bridge at Fre
mont, although It results in the sole ad
vantage of the Dodge county capital. Such
ia the decision of the supreme court in
t
the rehearing on the case of Dodge agalrst
Saunders county, decided at this sitting.
Won't Teaeh l.leenee Case.
The supreme court declines to consider
an appeal Involving the action of a oc
body in licensing a saloon. The holding Is
to the effect that there Is no pecuniary
Interest Involved Irt such a case, so there
Is no such question of right as comes within
the Jurisdiction of the court. The case Is that
of Halverstadt against Berger,''from Daw
son county and Involves an appeal from
the ruling of the district court on the
action of a vintage board In rejecting a
remonstrance against a liquor license.
"It Is quite clear." says the court, "that
eueh a proceeding Is not a civil case within
the meaning of section 25 of artlc'e 1 of
the constitution, and If such question was
deemed an open one, the writer would not
hesitate to hold that a final order In such
a proceeding Is not reviewable In this court
at all. The granting or refusal of a license
to sell liquor is the exercise of a purely
police regulation. Involving no personal or
property right and 'argely discretionary
with the licensing authority, and the dis
trict Judge In declaring an appeal in such
esses, performs an administrative rather
than a Judicial function. . If the license Is
refused, the applicant In contemplation of
law loses nothing, and if It is granted, he
acquires at law a brief privilege which
will expire before the proceedings can be
presented to this court for review."
Mrs. Chamberlain Keeps Home.
Commissioner Oldham decides In an opin
ion adopted by the court that Mre. Edith
R. Chamberlain of Tecumseh cannot be de
prived of the homestead occupied by her
and her three small children because her
husband, Charles M. Chamberlain, the de
faulting banker, had absconded. The Na
tional Bank of Commerce of Kansas City
levied an attachment on the home property
and sought to sell, it to secure a partial
return of money lost through Chamber
Iain's defalcations.-
i Ko Common Lair Marriage.
The case of Sorenson against Sorenson,
involving an alleged common law marriage,
remains where it was prior to the rehear
ing, the decision being adverse to tile young
child of Ellen Ferguson of Ord, for whom
the 120.000 estate of Hans Sorenson, who
died at that place In 1896, waa claimed.
The first decision hi the esse was written
by Commissioner Ragan In 1898, and it has
been pending on rehearing since that time.
The court sustains the former decision that
there was not enough evidence of a com
mon law marriage between the woman and
Sorenson to establish the child's claim to
the property as against other relatives of
the man.
Chara-es Agraiast Judge Baker.
Papers printed In New Mexico are being
circulated In this city detailing charges
made against Ben S. Baker, formerly
United States district attorney for Ne
braska and later a Judge of the district
court in Omaha. Judge Baker is now oc
cupying a position on the federal bench of
the territory.
Snmo time ago the Good Government

INTERESTING FACTS.
For Kearly Every Han, Woman or
Child.
A short time ago we published sn article
recommending to our readers the new
discovery for the cure of Dyspepsia, called
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and the claims
then made regarding the wonderful curative
properties of the remody have been
abundantly sustained -by the facts. People
who were cautious sbout trying , new
remedies advertised in the newspapers and
were finally Induced to give Stuart's Dys
pepsia Tablets a trial were surprised end
delighted at the result a in many caaea
a single package costing but 60 cents at
any drug store made a complete cure and
In every instance the moat beneficial results
were reported. From a hundred or more
received we have space to publish only a
few of the latest, put assure our readers
we receive so many commendatory letters
that we shall publish each week a fresh
list of genuine, unsolicited testimonials and
never publish the same one twice.
From James Temmeiser, La Crosse, Wis.:
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are doing me
more good than anything I ever tried and
I waa so pleased at . results that I gave
away several boxes to my friends who
have also had the ssma benefits.
From Jacob Anthony, Portmurray, New
Jersey: I hsva taken Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tableta w)th the beat results. I had
Dyspepsia for six years and had taken
a great deal of medicine, but the Tableta
seem to tske light a hold and I feel good.
I am a farmer and lime burner and I
heartily recommend 'to everyone who has
any trouble with his stomach to uae these
Tableta.
From Mrs. M. K. West, Preston, Mlnn.t
I have received surprisingly good effects
from using Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
I gave one-half of my. last box to a friend
who also suffered from Indigestion and abe
had the same good results.
From Mrs. Agnes K. Ralston. Csdlllaa,
Mich.: I have been taking Stuart's Dyspep
sia Tablets and I am very much better,
and feel very grateful for the great benefit
I hsve received In so short a time.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are a rertam
eur for all forms cu indigestion. They are
not claimed to be a cure-all. but are
prepared for atomsch troubles only, and
physicians and druggists everywhere rec
ommend them to all persons suffering from

and similar disorders.
the last year. With an Increased attend
ance has come a higher standard of scholar
ship and more students In the advanced
courses. Considerable Improvements In the
equipment of the Institution have been
made during the year and more were
needed. The only Baptist college In the
state, It should receive a heartier support.
College life in Its various aspects, physical,
Intellectual and religious, were the subjects
of short addresses by E. F. Starr, Miss
Julia Porter and L. D. Weyland, students
of the college. Mr. Starr's talk etas of es
pecial Interest. Dr. J. W. Conley of Omaha
In the course of his address on the duty of
Nebraska Baptists to furnish well equipped
leaders made a strong plea for the higher
education of the pastors and for a broader
spiritual culture.
Isaac W. Carpenter of Omaha then talked
of the financial side of the question and of
the duty of the church to not only equip a
higher Institution of learning, with suit
able buildings, etc., but provide an endow
ment fund for the malntalnance of the
schools. He urged the ministers and dele
gates to, come to the assistance Of Grand
Island college and help to place It In a
position where It would be a stronger
power for the promotion of the Interests of
the church. Prof. Snaller Mathews of Chi
cago university, In a short talk on the gen
eral subject, contrasted the college of years
ago with that of today, showing how edu
cational standards had been raised, also of
the Influence of the educated man In small
communities.
A resolution was unanimously adopted
that a committee of five be appointed to
devise a plan and have charge of the rais
ing and disbursement of funds for the re
lief of aged and disabled ministers. Every
Baptist church In the state was directed to
apply the proceeds of one communion col
lection each year for that purpose. The
convention then adjourned.
A resolution was also adopted at this ses
sion that whenever a minister Is dismissed
from a church the cause for dismissal and
the proceedings of the church be published
In the official church paper.
The Nebraska Educational association,
which Includes all the ministers belonging
to the convention, met this, sfternoon.
There was a good attendance, as most of
the delegates to the convention remained
to hear the discussion of the theological
seminary question and were well repaid.
The discussion of the seminary question
occupied nearly all of the afternoon ses
slon and at times the debate was pretty
warm and the points made by the speakers
on each side were heartily applauded.
Dr. Crannell and the Kansas City school
won a partial victory when a resolution
that the convention would not assist in the
support of any new Institution was voted
down without a division. A resolution was
then adopted with practically no opposition
for the appointment of a committee of five
to examine the affairs of the new school
and if advisable co-operate , with a similar
committee from other conventions In re
gard to the permanent location of a theo
logical school In the Missouri valley.
. Dr. Crannell regards the result as a very
favorable one to the success of his school,
though not entirely what he wished for.
The school has thirty students enrolled
this. Its first year, and a building and prop.
erty of the value of 185,000.
