Judge RedlcK of th district court will
have up for consideration today one of
the moit peculiar suit of Ita kind ever
tried In this county, or probably In any
i.tltcr. The plaintiff I Joseph W. Brews4er,
who In November, IMrt bought a .as title
on the presvnt Young Mm'i Christian as
sociation headquarter. The tax title was
bought at public sale, without protest,
everybody evidently having overlooked the
fact that the property was exempt under
the law of Nebraska.
On a suit brought In the Vnlted States
rourt Judge Munger of the federal court
declared the tax levy of 1S0T void so far at
It applied to the Toung Men's Christian as
sociation property, or that port of the
same used fur religious and educational
purposes. Now Mr. Hrewster sues the
county of Douglns to get back 13.000, ap
proximately, the amount paid for the title
when he bought.
Man- very nice points of law are raised
In this rase slid It promises to establish
a precedent. County Attorney Slahnugh
Is resisting the plaintiff's cinlm on the
broud ground Of caveat emptor "let the
purchaser beware" In other words, that
every man has knowledge of the law.
Judge Blabaugh holds that Brewster made
a voluntary payment, purely, for his own
purposes, and must accept the consequences
thereof, which In this case means the loss
of the money paid.
ARMY OF AGENTS AT OFFICE
Representative of Typewriters
Troop Down on Assistant Post'
aaaste After Reading; The Dee.
Assistant Postmaster Woodard was rather
astounded Thursday morning upon his ar
rival at his office to find a room full of
typewriting, machine agents lying In wait
for him. He waa unable to comprehend the
situation until several of them approached
him with a clipping from The Bee of
Wednesday evening announcing the Infor
mation that rostmaeter Palmer, who waa
In Washington, had secured an order for
' the purchase of a new typewriter for the
Omaha postoftlce. Representatives from
every typewriting agency in the city were
there and each insisted upon extolling the
virtues of his special make of machine.
The genial assistant postmaster waa over
whelmed and finally compromised on a
peace basis by securing a protocol until
Postmaster Palmer arrived, which, he
aid -confidentially, will be at t p. m. Fri
day, at which time Captain Palmer wfll be
delighted to see all the agents and test
their . machines. It probable the ma
chines will be tested In the map room at
the top Of the federal building. Colonel
C. E. Llewellyn probably will be selected as
chief testing operator and Major Barrows,
Immigrant Agent Mansfield and United
States Commissioner Anderson as Judges
and time keepers.

i The relation of the nerves and gen

that nine-tenth of the nervous pros

arise front some derangement of the
organism which makes her a woman.
Fit of depression or restlessness and
irritability. . Spirit easily affected, so
that one minute she laughs, the next

b nervous prostration.
Nothing will relieve this distressing

Less than tl.ono now remains to be sub

lot for the Toung Women' Christian as
sociation, but practically the entire amohnt
is now In sight. It will be necessary, bow
ever, to secure something over the neces
sary $15,000 to make sure that amount In
case the committee Is disappointed In mak
ing Its collections at the last.
Miss Mary Dunn of Chicago, national
secretary of the American committee, will
visit the local association some time dur
ing September, when a conference will be
held to decide when the new building shall
be built, or rather when the canvass for
the necessary money shall begin. Mrs.
W. P. Harford and her family are at their
summer place at Madeline Island, Lake
Superior, but before returning to Omaha
he will visit Minneapolis and possibly
other large association buildings for Ideas
to be a pi led at home,
Mrs. Byers, general secretary, will leave
Baturday evening for a six weeks' vacation.
She will visit her father's home In Chi
cago snd later accompany her brothers and
sister to one of the nearby lakes. She
will also Visit the association building at
Milwaukee and other places to look Into
the work and get Ideas for the new home
building.
Miss Flora Tlcknor, extension secretary,
will leave Saturday evening for her home
In Indiana, where she will be married In
September. "
Misses Agnes and Isa Ward, membership

retary. Is at the home of her father at
Defiance, la., for a month's vacation. No
announcement has yet been made by the
board regarding a auccessor to Miss Tlck
nor as extension secretary.
The attendance at the rooms Is compara
tively small this month, as so many of the
members and patrons are out of the city
on their vacation. It Is thla lull in the
work that makes It possible for the sec
retaries to be absent on their vacations.
A delightful outing and educational treat
will be afforded at the city conference of
the Young Women's Christian association,
to be held at Lake Geneva, August 18 to
28, and It Is estimated that $3R will cover
the entire expense. The program fee, board
and tent accommodation can be had for
$15 and a round trip rate of $17.80 from
Omaha. It Is expected that a large num
ber of association members and other
women will avail themselves of this op
portunity.

Three dead ducks, one battle-scarred
rooster, one morose bulldog and th arrest
of John Hear Is the summary of a battle
royal that occurred Thursday morning at
Fifteenth and Yates street between a
kennel of dogs owned by Hear and a large
assortment of poultry owned by Mrs. Wil
son, a neighbor. On complaint of the
woman Officer Dovereeee went to the scene
of the conflict snd arrested Hear on a
charge of malicious destruction of prop
erty.
According to well authenticated reports
from the front, Thursday morning's con
flict was such as to cast a heavy shadow
over Kouropatkln and Oyama's little
brush at Mukden.
There Is said to have been bad feeling
for some time between Hear' dogs and
Mr. Wilson' feathered tock. Both par
ties have garden patches and the report
Is the dogs have trespassed on the Wilson
patch, while the chickens, ducks and geese
have wandered onto the Hear domain.
Thursday morning matters came to a head
and the various peace plenipotentiaries of
th neighborhood took to the high ground
and watched the mlxup.
About 8 a. m. one of the bulldog met
one of the duck on neutral ground and
It wa at once evident that the reserves
would have to be called out. The dog
chased the duck onto the Wilson territory
and Immediately a aolld phalanx of ducks
rushed for the canine, which made a flank
movement for his kennel, with th duck
regiment In hot pursuit.
Commanders Both Maimed.
At this Juncture Hear, who I without a
nose, came out of his house, while Mrs.
Wllrsn, who lost one of her legs In a rail
road accident, tssumed command of her
forces. Dogs, ducks, chicken and geese
were then ordered to charge. There was
an Instant rush of bull dogs and poultry
for common ground. From the top of his
dog kennel Hear directed his forces, while
the woman took note from th roof of
her poultry house. For awhile It was hard
for noncombatant to distinguish between
dogs and ducks or barks and squawks. The
turbulence and din of battle became louder
and louder. On a distant kopje several
cows ceased their graslng and looked won
dering! y at the strange sight. Then a
number of humane neighbors cooled the
ardor of the belligerents with a tub of Ice
water. The dogs were pulled away and
taken prisoners of war.
"I regret to report the death of three
ducks and minor Injuries to two roosters,"
stated Mr. Wilson to Officer Devereese,
In the paclfio terms of the Immortal Lord
Roberta.
One of the Hear dog sustained slight
abrasions in a foot-to-foot encounter with
one of Mrs. Wilson's fighting roosters.
In police court Friday morning Judge
Berks will Set as Joint peace commissioner
and pass on the case, so It will not have to
go to The Hague.
