HOTEL CLERK PROVES WISE
Bu t Chance to Lean Ten Dollar on
"Fine" Gold WgtcL
HAD BEEN TCUCHLD ON THE GAME BEFORE
Sends Boy for Police and Stranger
aad His "Phoney" Tlmeplef Are
Both Reposing la tkc
Police gtatloa.
"Good evening, Mr. Park," H the fa
miliar manner In which a young man,
well dressed but a stranger, addressed the
chief clerk at the Grand hotel last even
ing. "I am in rather an embarrassing po
sition. I have two women friends I prom
ised to take to the lake this evening' and
I find I have left my pocketbook at home.
Would you kindly accommodate me with
110 on this until tomorrow." With this the
stranger placed a seemingly handsome gold
watch with silk fob and charm In Mr.
Parks' hand.
"My father Is a well known Rock Island
official in Omaha and 1 will bring the
money over after lunch' tomorrow," he
continued. Mr. Parks, however, hail been
there before.
"Let me have your name, as we gen
erally like to know to whom we lend
money," replied Mr. Parka, as he handed
the stranger a slip of paper.
"Oh my name is F. O. Wilson. I live
at S515 Farnam street. I am well known
across the river."
"Is your name In the directory?"
"It ought to be, I have lived ther--Umg
enough." -
While the stranger was writing his nam
on A slip of paper. Clerk Park managed
to send on of the boys after an officer
and kept the fellow waiting a minute or
so while he pretended to unlock the safe
to get the money. When the officer ar
rived the fellow etarted to run, but waa
quickly overhauled.
At th city Jail he gave the name of T,
G. Teaman and had letters on him ad
dressed to thia name to th general de
livery, Omaha. '
He is being held for Investigation.
The watch la one., of the cheapest
"phoney" kind.
Clerk Parks about a year ago loaned the
son of a "prominent Northwestern official
In Omaha" $10 on a somewhat similar
watch end under similar circumstances and
consequently the game last night failed to
work.
DRAINAGE ASSESSMENT SETTLED
Partlea Get Together and Reach an
Amicable Agreement.
The county supervisors, Bitting as a
drainage board, approved yesterday after
noon the benefit assessment schedule for
the Pigeon creek ditch' after reaching a
settlement with the Northwestern railroad
satisfactory to the ditch promoters and
Contractor Wlckhatn. ..- .'
Under the agreement reached the assess,
nient of 1.6:.S0 against, the railroad was
stricken off and the propecty ot the rail
road was taken 'out. of the drainage dis
trict. In return the railroad withdrew Its
claim of 15,000. for .4antgc and entered
Into an agreement to.. mov,e Its bridge so
as to permit Contract Wick ham to pass
his . dredge up or dawn , he elream. Tho
railroad ia to replace Its present structure
with a steel bridge on stone abuttments.
This" agreement was reached after the
supervisors had stepped aside and allowed
the- representatives of the railroad, the
ditch promoters and the 'contractor to get
together and talk it over. In order to bring
about a settlement of the controversy Con
tractor Wlckbam offered" to donate 11,000
pf the contract price for'ths construction
of the ditch to the drainage district.
The hoard adjourned to August 8, at
which time it will decide on the bond Issue
to pay for the construction of th ditch,
which will coat between 120,000 and 130,
000. " Property owner "assessed for bene
fits can pay their assessments on or be
fore August 8 in cash and the amount eo

Coaaell 4 Consider Light Contract.
The city council will meet n commit te
cf the whole this afternoon to consider
the proposed new lighting contract with th
Cltlsen'a Gas and Electric company. While
some opposition has arisen to th proposed
contract on account of certain persons
Inline western part of the city asserting
that It doe not guarantee that portion
of th city gaa in the neai future, th con
tract I generally considered an advan

Everest Has HI Tranble.
Frank F. Everest, th well known real
estate man and former city assessor, was
gbl yesterday to testify to the truth of
the ancient adage that mlsfqrtuncs never
come singly.
Wednesday evening Mr. Everest, while
out driving with her m-year-old babe and
Miss Carrie Spooner, waa thrown out of the
buggy and suffered a severely wrenched
back. Mis Spooner, who was holding the
baby, waa severely bruised, but the child
escaped injury. In some manner the lines
became entangled In the wheels, the horse
became frightened and the buggy was
tipped over, throwing the occupants into
the street.
About i Vclock yesterday morning Mr.
Everest, who lives on Glen avenue, arose
to give his wife some medicine. Looking
for his watch he was surprised to discover
that It was not on the bureau where h
had plated It before retiring. Investigation
showed the remains of a number of burred
matches on the floor and the discovery that
his clothes were also scattered about the
floor with the pocket inside out caused
Mr. Everest to realise that he had been
robbed while asleep. Neighbors had noticed
some person striking matches In different
part of the house, but supposing it was
some member of the household, had not
given the subject any more thought.
Besides the watch, which waa a valuable
gold one, the thief secured a small sum of
money from. Mr. Everest's clothes. None
of the silverware In the dining room was
touched. It Is thought the thief entered
the house' through one of the ecreened
windows which had been left open on the
lower floor.

CUMMINS NOT HEARD FROM ON QUESTION
Last Township In Dallas t'sssty,
Selects Delegates and fslrea (lot--,
ernor a Majority la the
County Convention.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINE8, June IS. (Special.) H n
George D. Perkins, candidate for the re
publican nomination for governor, toda'
sent his opponent. Governor A. U. Cummins,
tli following letter:
t am reluctant to take the Initiative It
suggesting any plan looking to a peacefu
solution of th perplexing altuation nov
confronting the republican party of thlt
state. I assume that yoti. equally with my
self, desire that the convention snail In
orderly and above suspicion of Intentlona,
wrong. We are mutually desirous, I air
free to say. to shield the party tiUmc front
dishonor and to bring about the nomination
of S ticket that the sincere membership of
the party can loyally and unitedly support.
Tho time for calm action Is row.
The pre-ronventlnn campaign has been
heated. Tho struggle for delegates has
never been equalled In our state The con-
t-st haa come down to he closing das
Without a clear settlement as to the choice .
of the party for the gubernatorial nomlnru .
tlon. The balance of power Is with delega
tlona that are contested, and these contest-",
to my mind, should be Impartially and In.
telllgently determined to tbe end tlwt confi
dence iiiay he established In the Integrity
of the convention's determinations. Neltlirr
you nor I want a nomination Involving a
doubtful title or the suspicion of It. Now,
what can he done to provide a fair adjust,
ment? .
It has occurred to me that w-e might ask
for the Intervention of the republican na
tional committee. Would you be willing in
Join In a request to the chairman of th
national committee that he appoint from .
the membership of the committee a com
mission of three, the cholre to be mad
from states sufficiently separated from our
state to secure Impartiality and freedom
from predetermination, to hear and !e-
ternilne the Issues thnt have arisen. My
thought is that such rommielon should I'
empowered to hear all contests and upon
their finding make up a tempnrnry roll to
be binding upon al parties, and. ' further,
Ihst such commission be authorised to pre
scribe, parliamentary rules hy which th
convention should be governed In all Its
preliminary work.
If a plan of this kind were to be agreed
to, it would be necessary, of course, that
we should PersonHlly obligate ourselves
to abide by the action of the commission.
i to use otir rull Influence to have their con
I elusions accepted by the convention -and to
exert all our power to have the plan and
conclusion thus -framed carried out in good
faith. If this suggestion, prompted only by
my desire to place the-eommon welfare of
the party nbove personal concern, does
not meet your specific approval, I trust I
am not mistaken In assuming that the ob.
Ject In view haa your cordial endorsement.
Therefore, I am not without confidence
that some .in can be mutually aureed toV
that will secure a creditable adjustment
and save the convention from hasty and.
Imprudent action, harmful to the party
and mortifying to those aaalnst whom re.
sponslhlllty might be lodged. I am not
personally disposed In this matter to Ignore
the authority of our state committee, and
my sua-aestlon would be ' (f you should
agree with me In the general proposition,
to petition our own committee to take tip
the matter with- the chairman cf the na
tional committee. I should consider It an
honor to be favored with your early reply.
Respectfully yours. .
