The dolaycd application for a renewal of
the gaa street lighting contract, which ex
piree December 31, la scheduled for the
council meeting Ttii-adiiy night, according to
tha statements of disinterested persona whu
aay they know what they are talking about.
IThe present plan is to demand a contract
for five years, or two years more than thu
present contract o- that made with the
lectrlo .light company for the siime hind
f-service easier In the year. The price
annually per gas lamp will be la, which la
It less than the price now In force. The
minimum number of lamps will be 1,2"0, or
about the number now In use, but care la
to bo taken that enough gas lights go In so
that the amount of money now paid out for
the service la not decreased.
Vice President Clabaugh of the g.is com
pany was very busy Thursday Interviewing
the mayor and councllmen and endeavoring
to gel tho deal shaped up In advance. . He
was nopoomrultal himself regarding his
business, but Mayor Moorea Is understood
to have told him that In signing or vetoing
the ordln.nce he was determined to give
both tho company and the city what he con
sider: a "squara deal." Just what this la
the mayor hus not defined.
Claims N .11 one? Made.
Gas company officers are making tho
tatemuu that ne company will not make
any money out of 128 gas lamps, but is
anxious to keep up the service as It means
a, certain amount of prestige and aids In
tho amount of business done to private
oor.aumers, alsr is advantageous In the
mittcr of extending mains.
President Ztminan and Hoye have given
notice that they will fight the proposed
contract to the last drop of the hat. They
want a contract not to exceed threo years
In duration and a Mj cut In the rate pro-
nosed. Zimman for months has been col

but not men to handle them. This ad-
dress and the floral decorations, which
were well carried out, formed the best
part of the service. An opening prayer
by Alex Hubln was given In a most Im
pressive manner. The Ten Commandments
were given by the entire class. Clarence
Bergman spoke on t lie Bible. Edward
Krause offered a brief prayer. Jacob Frey
gave a short confirmation address, which
was followed by "The Law of the Lord,"
delivered by Milton Livingston. The entire
lass then gave Hume Biblical mottoes, and
hen was given the floral offering, by Mil
ton Livingston; this was the blessing of
he flowers, which the members of the
lass had carried during the forepart of
the exercises and placed upon the altar, to
be blessed by one of the class, which was

the gas Interests. He Is confident that
Mayor Moo res will not submit to any kind
of a contract that la not fair.
Hoye Is In a mood where he fairly bi-is
ties when th. words "gas contract are
mentioned. He holds that the electric
light company made a reasonable cut for
treet lighting, or from 194.60 to 75 and he
declares the gas company should do pro

DAY WILL READ UP ON THE CASE
Judge TSoes to Lincoln to Post Him
self on Matter of Urecst
f ner'a Unlit.
) Judge Day went to Lincoln yesterday
to spend a day In the state law library. Ho
goes especially to look up tho law touching
the points raised by former County At'
torney English In his brief submitted as at
torney for George Breckner, who Is accused
of shooting Albert Kuhn at South Omaha
last February.- Mr. English's brief In effect
sets out that young Breckner Is not now
amenable to any punishment. At the tlmo
of the killing he was not 16 and before ho
was presented for trial the new juvenile
law went Into effect. After this Breckner
reached the age of 16, and as he had not
been brought to trial under either the old
reformatory law or the new Juvenile law up
to the date when he became 10 Mr. English
claims he Is not now subject to punishment
and must be discharged.
While at Lincoln Judge Day will see Gov
ernor Mickey relative to the cases of two
men now under sentence In the county Jail
Albert E. Washington, a colored man, has
almost finished a sentence of one year for
forgery. By an agreement with the gov
ernor he has been left at the county jail
as he was a very handy man about the
laundry and boiler room. Now he wants
the benefit of the good time he would have
earned If sent to Lincoln. Judge Day will
endeavor to get it for him, and If successful
Washington will soon be at liberty.
The other cse In which Judge Day will
try to Intercut the governor Is that o
Charles Nelby, sentenced to six months for
forcible entry. Nelby's mother has made
an urgent request that her son be allowed
to go home and assist her in working her
farm. As hs is In Jail by reason of bad
companionship as much as anything else
the chances are the prayer of his mother
will be granted.

CAPTAIN LYNCH STATES CASE
Former Attorney for Washington
Bank Explains Why Salt Is
Drought Against Him.
Captain John R. Lynch, paymaster United
States army, said In reference to the case
brought against him by the receivers of the
Capital Savings bunk of Washington:
"The matter grows out of my former con
nection with the bank as Its attorney as
member of the law Arm of Lynch & Terrell
of Washington. I was connected with the
bank from 1S93 to lsns. As attorneys for the
bank we mado collections of notes and, as
Is the custom, applied part of the proceeds
of the collections on our compensation for
services as attorneys, by and with tho con
sent of the bank officials. When I entered
tho army In July, 1S9S, I resigned my at
torneyship of the bank and gave to tho
caBhier of the bank my notes to cover the
collections mado by us and applied on the
salary account, In order that the books of
the bank could be balanced, as a matter of
form. The bank was at that time perfectly
solvent, and did not go Into the hands of a
receiver until November, 1902. It happened
that these notes were among the assets of
the bank when the receiver took ohld and
have Just been resurrected. The War de
partment was fully advised of all tho con
ditions at the time. The notes were simply
given as an accomniQdation to the cashier
and represent the compensation for my en
tire five years' services as the bank's at
torney."

to remain at the place as an employe, me
mother reported the matter to the police
and the arrest of the twain followed.
There being no one to appear against the
Jap in police court he was discharged.
Mrs. Watts called at police headquarters
after court had adjourned. Miss Watts Is
being hold by Police Matron Anderson
pending a further consideration of the case.
The romance of Miss Watts and Sekl was
begun In tha canning department of tho
Cudahy plant at South Omaha, where both
were employed. Recently Sekl embarked
In the restaurant business and wanted his
white Inamorata to share his Joys and sor
rows. Thursday morning Miss Watts told
her mother she was going to Omaha to
work In the Sekl restaurant. The mother
had misgivings about such a move and
talked to her daughter from 6 o'clock
Thursday morning until 8 In the evening.
"I actually talked to her fourteen hours,
or all the day as you will see, but my
counsel availed as nothing. Mamie said
she was going to Sekl, and she went," said
the mother at police headquarters.
Miss Watts admits that BeklHhinks much
of her and she will not deny she thinks as
much of him. The girl has a number of
sympathizers at police headquarters, while
there are a few. Matron Anderson Included,
who thinks she needs a large shingle. The
girl says she will not go to the Home of
tho Good Shepherd. She Is taking her In
carceration much to heart.
Miss Watts will be 18 August 1. Her case
probably will be disposed of Saturday.

First Conviction on a Gambling;
Charge In Six Years In
Douglas County.
After being out eighteen hours the Jury
In the caso of State against G. A. Lang
came Into Judge Day's court Friday morn
ing with a verdict of guilty. The county
tittorncy's office was surprised by the
length of time that It took to agree on a
verdict, as the state considered Its case ex
tra strong, the stud poker table being ex
hibited In court: It Is understood that one
man hung the Jury for several weary
hours.
Sentence was not pronounced, as Attor
ney Kelkenny will file a motion for a new
trial. One thing that Judge Slabaugh and
his assistants arc congratulating them
selves on Is that this Is the first conviction
on a gambling charge in Douglas county
In six years. Assistant County Attorney

hyenas and black leopards are the most
difficult to deal with on "Bath day," as
they do not take kindly to the water. It
Is necessary to strap them down and mus

The polar bears enjoy a bath for the sake
of cleanliness as well as for swimming.
When the polar bear's bath Is being filled
with water he will stand with open mouth,
and when the bath is full he will play
all manner of tricks, reveling In the water.
One of its antics Is to float on its back
In the water, and then catch hold of Its
heels with Its forepaws and roll over like a
ball.
Monkeys never wash or bathe, though
they have, as a rule, every chance to do so.
Possibly experience has taught them to

Pe-ru-na Is a Catarrhal Tonic
Especially Adapted to the

Old Age.
Hale and hearty old age means simply
healthy organs and healthy functions re

As a rule, at the age of HO or 70 years,
the functions begin to wane and the va

This need not occur. At lesst not In
all cases. Many a .nan and woman have
retained their health and vigor much later

and in a surprisingly abort time I was
completely cured. For thjs I thank
Cuticura, and ad rise all those suffer
ing from akin humors to get it and
end their misery at once. S. P. Ktyea
