The assault upon the Indian witness, $ Hyacinth Bt. Cyr, at Homer, by Ed Lulk 1 hart, a galoonlat, convicted of conspiracy i.

It is believed at . the federal building here In Omaha that ' the assault on Bt. Cyr will not result in any reduction ot sentence to be Imposed upon Lulkhart when, the motion for a new trial la finally disposed of. The hearing on thla motion haa been postponed two or three tlmea for varloua reasons and will come up for final hearing Thursday or Friday. In the event of the motion being Jne of Nature's Wonder pot He moven nejonrt the Hearn oi fireed. Ynsemlte valley and the Mariposa tract of big trees have been returned to the t'nlted States by California, and will henceforth be parks In a truer sense than ever before. These remarkable districts are among the great attractions which this county offers to travelera. artists and lovers of the sublime and beautiful; the valley, a tremendous rent of a mile depth In the Sierras. Its stupendous cliffs i laced with waterfalls; and the grove a spot where the greatest trees In all the world are growing. Sightseers, scientists, writers, painters, photographers and peo ple who are neither of these, but who fol low the crowd, take large sums of money into Cnllfornla, and they have spread the fame of the grove and valley around the world. These tourists should be protected, and so should be the scenery they go so far to study. Commercialism and neglect put their blight on the regions when they be came state parks, allelt they were sup posedly set aside for public uses merely. Visitors have been annoyed by dispari ties between service and expenditure; beautiful views have been marred by fore grounds of shacks, sheds, fences and sta bles; the chopper has been allowed to molest natural growths; roads and bridges have not been so well planned or cared for ns they might have been. The return of the properties to the federal government signifies that a stronger and freer hand will control them; that there will be more attention to public .right, and less to private eagerness for profit. What signifies most In this recession Is the example afforded to other of our states. It Is desirable, and may In a few years become necessary, to save the tim ber in the Adirondacks and the While mountains. After Industries have become more general In the south it will be a condition of their maintenance that water power to operate the mills and shops shall be continuous, and this cannot be If the forests at the sources of the rivers are depleted, except after the manner pre scribed by scientific forestry, and with moderation. We should have timber re serves In the east no less than In the west, and we should have national parks In every state where objects of scientific In terest and wonder abound, where passages of remarkable scenic beauty unfold, and where men congregate for rest and health. Were Niagara a national park, Instead of a state reservation, there would be an end to the . annual scandals that pertain to the struggles of power companies to di vert the torrent, and were our Adiron dacks patrolled by federal soldiers we should hear the last of Illegal occupancy of lands, of illegal damming and draining of streams, of Illegal appropriation of fish ing mid hunting tracts, of Illegal methods In stage and railroad operation, and of illegal removal of timber. The material prosperity resulting from constancy In water supply'means far more to this state and nation than does that which Is gained, for the moment, by the reckless deforesta tion In vogue, since In spoiling the forest the springs and rivers are also spoiled. Apart from and above the commercial considerations which propose the mainte nance of the woods is that of preserving for the whole public a system of national parks where all citizens shall enjoy equal Ity of privilege and opportunity, where the extravagance of one class shall: not limit or discountenance the rightful nlnn mifp or another, where federal supervision of rail roads, coach lines and hotels shall check extortions and Injustices, and where every reasonable effort shall be made to pre serve the woods, lakes, waterfalls, fishing streams, to build macadam roads, and open fine points of view. What California has done in respect of the Yosemlta is done with a regard for the people, and the like should be done by New Hamp shire, Vermont, Massachusetts, North Car ollna and other states. Parks will be needed by the nation In the near future as they are needed by the cities at the present. Brooklyn Eagle.

GETTING RICHA BAD HABIT St. Loafs Millionaire Tells Chicago a Few Wholesome Truths About Money. N. O. Nelson of St. Louis, a millionaire against hla will, told a Chicago audience these things about the rich and riches: "Getting rich Is merely a habit a bad habit. "Wealth piles up a lead on the shoulders of the captain of industry. "Wealth Is a menace to children and grandchildren who had no hand in its accumulation. "There Is no comfort in living In a man sion with hnlf a dozen servants. "I saw a $200,000 mansion the other day, built from the proceeds of a cotton corner. "It will give the owner no comfort and cost the livelihood of hundreds fit thou sands of cotton mill operatives. "You know and I know that the hardest Job a man can have Is living up to a big income. "Try living with the poor. Hire a room for $1.60 a week and ent 10-cent breakfasts. It won't hurt you. The microbes of disease are no more likely to harm you there than in a steam-heated room for which you would pay $3 to $5 a day. "Now, I have ceased to take any divi dends from our business. Although it is operated in my name, the employes all get dividends on their wages, amounting dur ing the last ten years to from 4 to 10 per cent. This goes toward buying an Interest In the business and paying for houses, ex cept three-tenths of It, which Is devoted to philanthropies."

There are some things about the egg market that would make you laugh. In the first place, a few days ago the eggs were selling at retail cheaper than they were wholesaling. The honest grocers were selling the crude material for Easter manifestations for less than they could buy It. This is what Is called a leader. It leads people Into the Idea that every thing In the store is cheap also. Of course everything Is. The packing of eggs has caused the market to react a little from Its first low point and last week the whole sale egg was about 16 cents. At the same time a number of grocers were selling them at lb cents. They had bought the eggs before the price went up and were willing to give (heir patrons the benefit of it for the sake of the advertising. Another humorous discovery In the egg trade Is the fact that grocers In Council Bluffs are giving 12'4 cents for eggs and grocers In the surrounding towns are giving 15 cents. Besides doing away with the superstition about eggs being cheaper al ways In the country, It Is very nice for the Council Bluffs citizen, but it does not at tract the farmer. Evaporated eggs, frozen eggs and egg powder are a sort of poor relation to the real, genuine egg in the original package. They are largely due to the enre-free manner In which the transporting agents, mule team, railway car and delivery wagon, break the shells. An egg may come in looking like It had been at a col ored picnic and still be an honest, useful egg. As long It can keep Inside Its shell It la good for something. Sometimes the wounded are gathered up In this way and spilled Into receptacles of a uniform size and frozen. This Is largely the packing house way. The customer takes the ice pick and breaks off enough egg for the scrambling machine. Egg powder or the evaporated egg Is caused hy a process of evaporation, which leaves the produce in a dry and powdery form, which makes it accommodate Itself nicely to a neat pack age. Omaha does not make egg powder, but Sioux City does. GRAIN AND PRODUCE MARKET Speculative Markets Open Week Unchanged and Contine Dull.

LIMIT ON PAVING CAMPAIGN Condition of Cltj'a Fund Will Not Permit All that Is Being; Asked by Property Owners. "Not to exceed about $160,009 worth of paving can be done In Omaha this year," says City Engineer Roscwater. "This Is because the paving intersection bond fund wll not take care of more than that amount for the city. The proportion of paving which the city has to pay for runs about 25 or 30 per cent. The money In the fund at this time .will go only so far. . No more can be obtained except by the sale of bonds which must be authorized by popular vote. Even should everything go smoothly, there fore, the city wll not be able to do all the paving that la demanded In 1906. Specifi cations will be drawn giving the best and fairest possible show for all contracts and nothing left undone to secure the lowest prices compatible with honest and enduring work." OMAHA, April S, 1906. The market ehoweu un unusual uniform ity with the close ot the week. 'itie hlgn and low potr.is this morning were eiy nearly those of Insi Saturoay. 'the May wheal ranged between 1 U " ana ll.l-t before noon and the July whs the same as Fnuay. May corn ranged oeiween 47Se and 4'tc belore noon and was 'c higher for the low mam than Saturday. The oats remained inactive. The wheat mar ket was very quiet, with a very small amount of trading, and the amount of corn oitered the number of trades made In the coarse grains were small. Cables sym pathized with the American weakness, Liv erpool declining from, 'Me to c and Ant werp losing KfC. Liverpool declined on corn '4c because of larger shipments than expected. The I'lilsbury Milling company Is quoted as believing reserves in the northwest are the smallest ever. That company says It will want troin lO.iW.OuvU to U.mm.ouO bushels of goixi old wheat to grind before the new crop, even If business is moflerate. The millers believe that there Is not enough wheat In the northwest to keep the mills running two-thirds capacity. The Minne apolis stocks of wheat have decreased 150.0(10 bushels In two days. Bioomhall cables the government figures on the Aus tralian exportable wheat surplus Is S2,0), 011 bushels, or 2.ono,OuO bushels more than had been expected. The world's ship ments are 9,344,010 bushels, against 9.7ii4.(iO0 bushels the preceding week and 9.872.000 bushels last year. The on passage wheat decreases 1,644,(10 bushels and the wheat visible will decrease about 600,000 bushels. From St. Louis comes a protest against the Idea that wheat trades there are In No. 2 hard. It Is said not more than 28,000 bush els has been traded under the new rule al lowing the delivery of No. 2 hard, and that all the large traders stick to No. 2 red. It is said the ruling may te reversed, as it Is not popular. The corn visible supplies will decrease About 1,1X10,0.10 bushels. The primary re clpts of corn are 939,000 bushels, against 390.C00 bushels last year and the shipments are 666.009 bushels, against 282,000 bushels. The corn on passage has Increased during the week by 736,000 bushels. The world's shipments of corn are 3.540,000 bushels, against 2.264.000 bushels the preceding week and 2,209,000 bushels last year. The corn receipts nt the principal market have not dropped off much yet, but there Is plenty of time. The Omaha receipts, 48 cars, are the smallest In some time and show that the last of the cheap corn Is passing out. The present weather Interferes with fur ther country movement of corn and also with farm work, but It Is very helpful for the winter wheat. Omaha Cash Sales. RYE No. 3, 1 car, 75c. Omaha Cash Prices.
