WILLING TO SELL Direttors Docide to Let the Howard Street , Site Go if Possible, "CHANGED CONDITIONS" INFLUENCE DEAL President f'nrpcntrr Makes Announce ment After Connoltnt Ion with Krlenda of the limtltntlnn and Cauvaia of Situation. The Young Men's Christian association is in the real estate market with an offer to Bell Its 132-foot siuare of ground at Six teenth nnd Howard streets. This an nouncement Is made by I. W. Carpenter after denials or rumors to that effect by various officers of the association. "Oreatly changed conditions" is the rea son assigned for this change in policy. President Carpenter says after an Informal canvass among a few of the friends of the association, it has been found that a much larger sum could be raised for subscription than had been believed possible and the board of directors now believes that by selling its Sixteenth street property at the market value, the association will be able 4 to buy a cheaper location aside from the principal business streets and put up un OMluslvely association building. I'urcliunc of Ketv Site. After the sale of the present building, there was a long continued fight between two sections in the association, one believ ing that business location should bo secured and the lower part of the building rented for store purposes and the other section standing for an exclusive associ ation building off the principal business ytreets, the Income from dormitories to I supply the place of the store room Income. When the Blxtecnth and Howard property was secured it was against the bitter op position of many of the members. Some believed the price was too high and it was said the purchase price of IllU.ouO together with the payment of the remaining debt on the old building left the association practically without funds to build. Tns board of directors now believe the Some folks think that Ghir ardelli's Ground Cbocolate is only a drink. What a lot of delicious' surprises they have in store!

They point to the new buildings in course of erection or planned for the vicinity of thrir property and the understanding that the Omaha, Lincoln & Beatrice Interurban line will use the loop past this corner; and believe these changes have greatly enhanced the selling value of the real property. Numerous in quiries have been made as to whether the property would be sold it is said, but Sec retary Wade Wednesday denied that the association had had any serious offer for the property. Conditions at Present. The agreement at tho time the old build ing was sold was that the association should have the use of It for two years after the date of transfer. About thirteen months of this time has now gone by. The plan sketches so far drawn have been for a business block so thut if the present lots are sold, considerable time will be neces sary before building could begin. Again the association Is understood not to con template buying new lota before the How- no soph property is sola, ana this may not ho for some time. -The officers of the the four rooms alluded to on the fourth floor of the city hall can be spared for the purpose without seriously incon veniencing anybody. The probation officers and tho Judges would much prefer them. HIS DICE PAY HIiVT QUITE WELL Cransbooter Joe Explains to Police How He Happens to Have fS.OOO In Dank. Among the personal effects of Joe Charles, alias "Crapshooter" Joe, when arrested Thursday by Detective Crummy on a vagrancy charge, was a bank book showing a deposit of $5,000 to his credit In a WlchAta (Kan.) bank. Charles did not look 1 he vagrant by any means, for he was neat and well dressed. The cause of his arrest was that when Detective Druni.nfty engaged him In conversation as a passible suspicious character, he re fus-fl to give a good account of him selO. In his trousers pocket was found a s of well polished, "bones."

Well, Just as fine a one as there Is. It is not very far from Hobart, and there Is where I learned true art In crap shooting. Before I went on my claim I had always had a fondness for tho dice and had at times taken in quite a little money. When I got out there alone on the prairie, I occupied my leisure hours by practicing with the bones. By constantly keeping at it I learned to throw almost anything I wanted.

Sheriff Power, Mr. Rohlff. a third friend and the driver were In a two-seated car riage on a mountain road, when their team took fright and started to run away. The man In the front seat with the driver got off quick and without damuge, but Mr. Rohlff was heavily thrown when he left the rig. He suffered' a dislocated shoulder and a broken small bone in his right wrist. The Ouiuha men lost no time in getting back heme after the accident. They left the mine, but they still have confidence.

CLERKS IN THE CLERK'S OFFICE Auditor Sanlth Itecoimuenda that Six lie Iald Off Intll Keeded by Aaaessor. In a communication to the Board of County Commissioners Friday morning Auditor Smith recommended that six of the c'.trks be laid off In the tax department of .he county clerk's office. In his com mdrilc."'lo!i the auditor suid that at pres ent there is no work for the clerks and their services should be dispensed with until the county assessor shall need them to prepare the tax roll. The board referred the communication to the committee of the whole and it Is under stood the committee will await the return of County Clerk DrexeJ from the coast be fore taking action. Mr. Drexel s chief clerk, Dan Butler, ex presses the opinion that this question has been raised before and that the statute makes the county clerk the boss of his own force. From all that could be heard or learned It seems certain that the recommendation of Auditor Smith Is bound to raise an issue thut may have to go to U ouurts for ssttlsmcut. BARNES CASE GETS TO COURT County Attorney Proceeds to Enforce the . Slocumb Liqnor Law, CINCINNATI COMPANY WILL MAKE FIGHT Defendant Asaerta that Its Stock la Alwajra In Transit and There fore Jiot Amenable to the State Laws. Walter Barnes, Omaha representative of a large Cincinnati liquor company, has been arrested on the charge of selling liquor, without a license, and his trial will test the right of foreign houses to do busi ness in Nebraska without the payment of the $1,000 annual license required by the state laws. Barnes has been doing a large business in Omaha and Nebraska for his company and has taken out no license of any kind. He holds that a government li cense and compliance with the revenue laws gives his company right to sell liquor at wholesale In any part of the United States and to make delivery of consign ment. The company ships to Barnes goods In carload lots and these are stored In a ware room rented from the McCauley Ex press company at 616 South Sixteenth street. Barnes takes orders from Omaha or any part of Nebraska and sends them to the Cincinnati office, which gives him instructions to deliver the goods. These or ders, say the local police officers, are filled from the stock of goods which Barnea keeps on hand. Barnes contends that each order la filled from Cincinnati and that the liquor la in transit until it reaches the buyer. M ill Make Flht. He has conferred with the Cincinnati at torneys of his firm and has been given In structions to secure local legal talent and fight the prosecution to tho very end. J. B. Kelkenney will defend him and City Prose cutor Tom Lee will push the prosecution. Barnes seems to have little doubt of the ultimate outcome of the matter. The case will be the first one of its kind to be tried In Omaha and promises to attract much at tention when it comes up In police court next Thursday. Action against Barnes was meditated two weeks ago, when Commissioner Broatch re ported his business to the Fire and Tollce board. However, there was a question as to whether it was the duty of the county attorney or city prosecutor to file com plaint. Assistant City Attorney Herdman told the chief of police that the law wns being violated and a campluint should be filed, but City Prosecutor Tom Lee insisted that the duly devolved unon thn emmtv . torney's office. At last the county attorney has filed the complaint and the prosecution has been turned over to Mr. Lee. He will attempt to pnave that the goods are brought Into this slate as the pioprrty of the house and are sold here and delivered to purchasers. ORANGES JUMP UP A NOTCH Half-a-Dollnr More on the Dos and Llmonelra Lemons Come Back to Market. It was awarded the Grand Prlxe at the St. Louis World's Fair over all other makes.

SERVED EVERTWHERE AMEIICAR WINE CO, ST. LOUIS Up 60 cents a box that's the oranges. While everybody was talking peace pros pects for Russia, the oranges took tho cnance or nrming up during the week, and the last few days have found them whole saling for half a bono more than they did. All grades are affected by the change. The Limoneira lemons are In again. Three months have come and gone since the last of these acid tanks camo In from Santa Paula. The Limoneira enjoy in one way the same sort of reputation that Tom Sharkey did they can stand lots of pun ishment. The lemon market has been shy or this particular product because of the great demand In the east. The general lemon situation Is not very pressing. As a matter of fact, the green vegetables are coming In direct from the south now and not by Chicago. They havo found out they are welcome here and that the western taste for good green goods is all that can be desired. Earlier it was neces sary for them to go to Chicago because they could travel in largo lots better, but that has been arranged now so that with the more favorable conditions they will bo billed straight through to Omnim the people who eat them will get the bills. Louisiana is sending on the green onions, the spinach, the beots, parsley and carrots and part of the radishes. Florida sends tomatoes and Texas asparagus. Chicago continues to handle the cucumbers and the head and leaf lettuce. The new potatoes are now Americans. The first of tho year were from Cuba, then the Bermudas came In, and now Louisiana Is sending out a very nice class of spuds. In about fourteen days Nebraska lettuce, radishes, onions and pie plant will come into the market, and the local patriot can save money and get proud of his state at the same time. It was, on . the whole, quiet and orderly and very patient." SCHEDULE FOR DAIRY TRAINS Ilurllneton Freight Ofllolnla Fixing; t'p to Accommodate the State Cream Raiaera. OFFICERS AND OPERA CROWD Acting; Chief Mostyn Commends the Policemen on Duty at the Auditorium. "The work of the officers in taking care of the crowds at 'Parsifal' and 'Lucia' was mose commendable," said Acting Chief of Police Mostyn yesterday. "On both occasions the order, both outside and Inside the building, was of the best, and considering the poor arrangements for en trance, the officers deserve much credit for the fart thnt no one was injured. "Only one entrance was provided for people afoot, which could be approached without danger. The Impatience of many to get In caused them to leave the walk and rush through between the carriages to another entronce, and only the utmost vigilance on the part of the police pre vented accident. This mingling of cur rluges and people was most notlceahl after the first act of 'Parsifal,' when tho houso was emptied for Intermission. It seems to me that It would be fur better to have all the carriages drive up to ths Howard street entrance. This would leave all the doors on the west for those who como by car or walk. "Of course the crowd was composed of ths best cltlxens and was much mora easily handled than an Ak-Sar-Ben crowd. A conference was held yesterday at Burlington headquarters between D. O. Ives, general freight agent; F. Mont morency, assistant general freight agent, representatives of the leading creameries of the state and other Interested officials of the Burlington freight traffic and op erating departments. The purpose of the meeting was to arrange a satisfactory schedule for the handling of the increasing dairy business of the state. "This daily business has grown to im mense proportions during the last few years," suid a Burlington freight official. "As a butter market Omaha Is ranking with the best. It Is really surprising to glance over the statistics of this industry for the last several years." The Burlington has 500 dairy stations S now In Nebraska, nearly double the num ber of Ki3. The Nebraska State Dairy association report for last year shows there were 1,860,000 dairy cows in The state, with a valuation of $37,000,000. The estimated value of the product of this large herd Is placedj at 120,000,0(0. In lfttO there were but two milch cows to the squnre mile in Nebraska, while today It Is figured there are sixteen. The railroads of the state are providing special cars for the dairy busi ness and are running these cars on the fast trains. Changes In Time.

SHE'S IN THE ASYLUM NOW Lovelorn Swain Finds His Inamorata Patient in Hospital for Insane. QUEER STORY DUG UP BY P0ST0FFICE Woman Who Has Been Insane for Look Time f.ets Money, Jewelry and Presents from Man She I'romiaea to Wed. rostoffice Inspectors have been investi gating a peculiar case of using the United States malls with the purpose to defraud. In which a woman patient at the Lincoln Hofpltal for the Insane Is the central figure. The woman has gathered in a col lection of fifteen or twenty gold rings, varying in value from $2 to $20, about 175 In cash and two hundred or more dollars In value of articles of feminine adornment. The woman Is the wife of a prominent citizen of Antelope county. She has since her Incarceration become a member of a matrimonial bureau at Denver, the purposa of the school being to bring people of matri monial Inclinations lntocorrespondence. As there happens to be no special restrictions upon the correspondence of patients at the asylum, the woman had full sway In her missives. She has engaged herself to a score or more of men In different parts of the country. To all of them she repre sented that she Is of a marriageable age, of boundless wealth, lived In and owned a magnlllcent stone and brick castle of a hundred or more rooms and that' the castle is surrounded with beautiful grounds, abundant flowers, and that her wants are attended to by scores of servants, etc. The description of her castle tallies with that of the hospital of which she is an Inmate, but she, of cour.-e, took the best of care to keen her correspondents In ignorance of that fact. Finally some one of her overxoalous ad mirers undertook an Investigation and dis covered that he had been completely taken In and he laid the matter before Post- office Inspector Sinclair of Omaha, who proceeded to investigate. While all that the guileless correspondent claimed In the manner of his being taken In was found to be exactly true, the Inspector is con fronted with the additional fact that the woman, being an Insane person, is not amenable to tho law. Much of the stuff gathered In by the woman will be returned to her correspond ents and the remainder will bo returned as soon as the fool killer's register can locata the victims.
