BOARD REFUSES TO BACK DOWN
teasty CaaBataaleera Igaar Ie
rlaleae of Male sasresse Cowrt
la Wolf License Matter.
A peculiar question arose yerteniiy aJt
ernoos btfore the county board and It was
settied. or Ifft unaettled. In a ptcuuuj run
i.er. On Wednesday, after hearing evi
dence in a proU-Ft bainat tbe granur.g cf
a license for a saloon to August Wolf, to
be located at Bennitton road and Dodge
street, the board granted tbe license and
approved the bond. Teaterday Attorney
Plata, for tbi objectors, led an appeal
and under the law demanded that the
county board have made and transmitted
to the clerk of the district court a trans
cript of tbe evidence. He also demanded
that the board revoke the license pending
the decision on the appeal by tbe court.
To back up this demand Mr. Piattl cited
tbe toard to two decudona of the supreme
court of the state which seemed to leave
tbe board no alternative but to reverse Its
action of Tuesday In granting the boense.
AseUUmt County Attorney Maguey, after
Jookitg over the decisions cited hy Mr.
PiatU, agreed that the board abouid re
voke tbe license pending decision on the
appeal, otherwise a writ of mandamus
ould lie against the board, oompeuing a
revocation.
Commissioner Kennard moved that the
license be revoked, as advised by the aa
aittait county attorney, and Commissioner
Connolly seconded. Just to bring tbe mat
ter before the board for a vote. He ex
plained, however, that be did not feel like
reversiLg hia action of Wednesday without
an order of the court. Three of his col
leagues evidently felt the same way, for
only Commissioner Kennard voted for the
revocation.
Attorney Pint a was plainly disgusted, but
contented himself with the parting remark
that the county will have to stand the ex
penee of the mandamus proceedings, al
though he thought the proper thin would
be for the commissi onera who voteTl no to
have to stand it themselves. The new
hoard will be maadamueed as soon aa It
organises, on Tuesday, January 10. Asked
If the action of the board would result in
allowing the Wolf saloon to run until the
lnoomin of the new board. Attorney Piattl
said: "Not necessarily. 1 shall at once
consider the proper steps to take to close
the place pending the settlement of the ap
peaL We consider the law so plain that
there can be little Question but that the
dlrtrict court will sustain our objection to
this license."

to Mayor Koutsky last night and fir tbe
time being the office of street commiasioner
will remain vacant. Mr. Troutan resigns
the position cf street commissioner to be
come the chief engineer at the new high
school building. In talking cf his resigna
tion, Mr. Troutan said that- it was a ques
tion of money with him. As street commis
sioner he drew SS5 a month from tbe city.
The Board of Education agrees to pay him
tlUO a month aa engineer. Mr. Troutan
leaves the city hall building with tbe best
wishes of those that remain. He is con
sidered a thoroughly competent engineer
and asserts that he will like the work
around engines and machinery much better
than be did the superintending of a street
repair force.
Mayor Koutfky said that he would not
appoint a street commissioner until spring,
and perhaps not then. He figures that be
tween himself and the city engineer the
work on the streets can be looked after.
Tom Irwin is to remain as foreman of
the street force. There is little doing now
In the street retiair department and the
force has been eut down to a few men.

SUIT CLUB MEMBERS ARE OUT
Pay la Their Meney. hat Are till
Mlaaa the Wt later Gar
ments. The chief of police of Omaha received a
telephone meestge from Valley last even
ing Inquiring about a man named W.
Powers. Powers came to Valiey during
the months of September and October and
organised a suit club there. Weekly draw
ings were held and a person paid tt a J
week until his number was drawn ana then
he bad a suit coming to him. The club
waa organised. Pcwers sad, far the tail
oring firm cf r. G. RogC. located at 14
South Sixteenth street. And tbe suits to
have been made by this firm and deliverej
some time during the mnntri of December.
But when the month of December came
around and no suits were to be had or
seen the members cf the club decided that
it saa time to make a few inquiries
about the firm. Some of the members
paid in as much as i and it is estimated
that m all 2'D was taken out cf the town
hy this enterpriaing man.
The police had a similar ease reported
to them from Tekamah three seeks ago.
only in this case It was an overcoat club.
At that time it waa found that the firm
of F. G. Roger, tailors, had rented rooms
in the Dcuglas block during the month of
September. Imring the time they occupied
the rooma tbey had a sign painted cn the
window advertising their us;nea They
only occupied the rooms for a short period
as tbey were evicted for nonpayment of
rent. The agent for the building saya
that be noticed different men around tbe
rooma at different times. But he was un
able to give any description of any of them.
It ia not known bow much the men re
ceived fw their trouble at Tekamah. But
It waa probably quite a sum as the over
coats sold at $15 each. They were also to
have been delivered rn December.
There is absolutely no trace of the men
at present.
BURNS CHANGES HIS OPINION

Him.
Hio Burns of Council Bluffs had Mrs. Ed
wards, who rooma at 404 North Fourteenth
street, arrested last evenir.g on s charge of
robbing him of CO. Mrs. Edwards was bela
on a charge of being a vagrant, while
Burns was held as complaining witness.
Burns says that be met tbe Edwards
woman Saturday night et the Etmplre
theater and that when he met her he had
tM in gold with him. Ha sent to the
Boman's rooms with her and when he came
away from there he was shy a 120 gold
piece. He thought she was a very nice girl
and so did not file a coroi laint against her.
thinking that he might ponsibly have loyt
the money. Last night he met the Edwards
woman on tbe street and invited her to
take dinner with him. She accepted and
when there they had a couple of drinka. and
while eating dinner she became very af
fectionate, but when Burns went to pay for
the meal he found he did not have ar.y
money- The woman, however, paid for the
meals and so prevented his being arrested.
Burns then left the woman and reported
the affair to the police, who arrested her.
Mis. Edwards, on the other hand, saya
that he was not with her. but with another
toman from the Empire theater.

It is hardiy worth while to enter Into a
discussion of the merit of the company

the author, and that is. arter all, the pur
pose of the company. Two performances of
the piece were given at the Boyd yesterday,
each of which was much enjoyed by the
audience. "Candida" will be repeated this
evening.
