be steadily forward.

as far as we can reach. The Rockwell City
and Iavenport establishments will be con
tinued as at present."
Judge Vlnsonhaler has not yet named any
ppralsers for estates In probate. He was
to have done so Tuesday morning, but It
was found on examination that the ap
plications of the county attorney for the
appointment of such appraisers were de
ficient In some particulars. At least two
of the eMates on the list for which ap
plications were submitted have been set
tled, so that the heirs would be the
proper parties defendunt.
Af'er consideration, It has been decided
to hold a conference of the county Judge,
county attorney and the attorneys of record
for the rarlous estates, to decide on a plan
nfacvon that will accomplish the result
the county attorney has In view most
expeditiously. In this way all the argu
nierta can be heard at one time, pro and
con.
''Judge Slahaugh was willing that the
county Judge should deny the application
for appraisers and then come In with a
mandamus proceeding This method of
procedure did not meet the approval of the
county Judge, anil after some discussion
It was decided to have a conference as
Indicated. Just when the matter will be
presented to the county court In Its new
aspect Is not decided, but It will be some
day this week.
In the meantime Clyde Bundblad of th
county Judge's ofnee Is to look up several
other estates that come under the provision
- of the law, so that all attorneys and parties
concerned may he notified and take pari
In the hearing. In many respects this will
be the most Important hearing evr had In
a probate court In Nebraska; not only be
cause of the amount of money Involved,
but also because of the points likely tn
be raised by the attorneys for the various
estates.

said, fences were coming down by the

NEW CREAMERY FOR OMAHA
Another Batter Making Plan of
Iare Proportions Will Re
Omaha's - supremacy as a butter-making
city la to be strengthened before winter
sets In by the addition of another large
creamery to the seven already established
here. The newest plant Is that of the
Andrew Wood company, which Is to have
c&paclty at the start of 20.000 pounds of
butter a day, or sufficient to make a car
1 ad. The creamery will be Installed In a
twn-stnrv and hnvmnnl brink biillftinv now
being erected on the north side of Douglas
sireei oetween cieventn ana iweirtn, Dy
capital under the control of W. R. Homan.
The structure Will be 132 feet wide and
about the same depth. Mr. Wood plans to
have the creamery In operation about
October i.
Andrew Wood's home Is at Rockwell City,
la., "where he has a large creamery and
produce establishment. , He Is at the head
of a company having similar business. In
Davenport, and of the A. Wood Produce
company, which has operated a large pro
duce store at 411-11 South Eleventh street
for four years. He says:
"Butter making Is becoming centralised

NO WORE THREE DAYS OF GRACE
Negotiable Instruments lavr Passed
by the Last Legislature
Goes Into Fffeet.
The old reminiscence of anti-railroad
days, the three days of grace on proni-
lsory notes and other paper of the same
Ilk, no longer exists legally in Nebraska.
Tuesday the law abolishing the three days
of grace and codifying all the state lams
and court decisions on negotiable paper
went Into effect, and from now on the
hsndlng of these things Is expected to be
much simplified. When the last legislature
passed the law It fell Into line with six
teen other states that have done the same
thing. These are New York, Pennsylvania,
Connecticut, Maryland, Florida, Tennessee,
Ohio, Wisconsin, Iowa, Montana, Idaho,
l.'tah, Colorado, Arlxona, Washington and
Oregon. The law Is one advocated by the
American Bar association and has the ap
proval of tho American Bankers' as
sociation. In It are Incorporated all
the various statutes that have here
tofore borne on the subject, together
with the essence of court deslclons.
The main difference in the new law, so far
as it generally affects persoas Is the aboli
tion of tho days of grace. This will save
much clerical labor figuring Interest In
banks and commercial houses. A sight
draft becomes practically a demand draft
and must be pafd on the day presented If
accepted If a note falls due on Sunday
or a holiday it Is payable On the first
business day following.
Another change lies In defining the stand
ing of a check and the funds against which
It Is drawn In the bank. It la made plain
that a check does not constitute an assign
ment until presented at the bank. If sev
eral checks are Issued against the same
funds the one that gets to the bank first
has the prior Hen and Is paid.
Hereafter a note given for a patent light
must have this fact plainly written across
Its face and the holder Is forced to as
sume all responsibility If he disposes of It,
making ,the note practically non-negotiable.
This Is to protect persons In the
selling of fake patent rights and Inven
tions. Other changes are mostly to cor
rect errors and make disputed points clear.
PLANS FOR NEW WAREHOUSE
peelflcatlons for tVrlnht 'V li
bel my 's Mrnrtare rinoeil la
Hands of Contractors.
Plans and specifications for the new
Wright Willielmy warehouse at Tenth
and Jones have been placed In the hands
of .contractors by Architect John l.atenser
and bids are to be returned August 14.
The structure Is to be 6fixl32 feet In one
part and 32x100 feet In another, forming
an I., about the north and east sides of
the old building. It will be five stories In
height and will conform In material and
appearance to the old quarters. It will
more thun douhle the storage capacity of
the house. At present two warehouses at
points remote from the office are required
to take care of the business. When the
new home Is finished all the business will
bo under one roof. The cost will be about
IKiO.COO.
The building will le what Is known as
an Improved risk, being of mill construc
tion and equipped with a sprinkler system
and doors which close automatically In
case of fire, shutting off the source of
conflagration from other parts of the house.
A prominent feature will be that the
shipping space Is all under roof. Wagons
which haul the goods awny will drive Into
the building to' load.
The office, which has been a land mark
In the Jobbing district, will be moved to
the second floor In the new addition.
THAT'S A THING (0F THE PAST
Who Will Represent Donajan County
at State Convention of
the Pops.
J. J. Points, one of' the few surviving
war horses of the populist party In Douglas
county, was asked who would represent
Douglas county at the meeting of the pop
state commltttee at Lincoln August I. Mr.
Points betrayed a mild Indifference.
"Don't know that anybody will," he re
plied. "'Don't know who the committeeman
Is from Douglas. They tried to give me
tho Job last year, but when that unspeak-
ble combination with the democrats was
made I sent In my resignation. I haven't
any use for the populist party run that
way. I am not ready to announce my en
rollment In the democratic column, and
will not be as long as the gang that has
control now continues to run things In
this state. I'm not taking much Interest
in this pop meeting."
No one else could be found who cared
even as much as Mr. Points, George A.
Magney was not In his office during the
morning and Laurie J. Qulnby could not be
located.

BUILDING MATERIAL SCARCE
Because of This Contractors Say Con
struction of Dolldtnss In
Omnba la Retarded.
Scarcity of lumber Is delaying the con
struction of several of the new and larger
buildings of the city. Manager Myrlck
of the Capital City Construction company,
which Is building the new office building
and warehouse of the American Radiator
company, and also the new Allen Bros,
building on Fa mam below Tenth streets,
said Tuesday morning that the failure of
the mills to turn out the heavier timbers
required for the Allen building had held
back the construction considerable. The
heavy rains of the spring made it lmpossl
ble to get out the heavier timbers at the
mill in. Arkansas, otherwise the. Allen
Bros, building would now be to the third
tory instead of the first floor as at pres
ent. M. C. Peters save that the lack of
this heavy material la also delaying the
construction of his new cereal building.
