MAYOR FIGHTS FOR TOM LEE
Ptblman, Overridden by Council, JesUts
. Itt Appoints for City Frottcator.
AYS H WILL CARRY CASE TO COURTS
Daniel ProcMti to .oallfr, Chief
F.seeatlve KetlSee Pallce Jde
and Office to Btel
Present Ineambeat.
Aa a sequel to the election of H. 8.
t)anlel to the city proeecutorshlp by tho
city council at a special meeting Thurs
day afternoon Mayor Dahlman called at
polio headquarters Friday morning and
informed the police Judtre and police of
ficials that only Tom Lee, present city
prosecutor, should be recognised aa hold
ing the office In question. All of which ha
stired up something of a hornet's nest
In local politics.
"I certainly shall resist the election of
Mr. Daniel by the city council Thursday
afternoon," eaid Mayor Dahlman. "It Is
possible I am wrong In this matter, but I
Intend to .stand for what 1 bellere my
rights and let the mstter be determined
by the courts if necessary."
It Is the contention of the mayor that In
view of no appointment saving been re
ceived from his office by the council Tues
day evening the council had a tight and
tliould have proceeded to elect a city
prosecutor, but falling to take advantage
of that right the appointment continued
to rest with tho mayor, he contended.
- Lee Insists on SlajInK.
The mayor feels confident he will win
out In his ngbt agaluat. the action of the
souncil Thursday afternoon. And In the
meantime Lee Is holding-down the office
by the grace of the mayor and possession
of the office, lie says he Intended to act
as city prosecutor, until the courts declared
he must leave, as he maintains the election
of Mr, Daniel was not legal.
There Is much difference of opinion re
garding the logwl status of the case and
present Indications are that it will take a
judge to declare who will be city prosecu
tor. City Attorney Burnam la pf the opinion
that the council could not have taken any
ictlon Tuesday evening, as an appointment
from the mayor might have been received
any minute up to adjournment. There la
ao question In the mind of Mr. Burns m
that the election of Mr. Daniel Thursday
afternoon was quite in order and will hold
good, according to the provisions of the
city charter, which say that the mayor
shall submit a name each regular meeting
and In the event of his failure to do so the
council Is empowered to fill the office by
tlectlon.
Coanell's Views of It.
W. J. Connell, who was questioned on
the subject, said several legal points were
Involved In the matter.
"If, as some contend, both mayor and
council allowed the appointment to go by
gefault last Tuesday evening, then Mr. Lee
will continue In office as a holdover"," said
Mr. Connell.
Mr. Connell is Inclined, howeverr- to the
opinion that the council proceeded Irreg
ularly Thursday afternoon by not consid
ering the mayor's appointment which was
before them and In the hands of the city
clerk. He thinks It should have taken
some ' cognizance of that appointment,
which contained the name of Louis J.
Pistil. Mr. Connell did not think the coun
cil could properly have made an election
Tuesday, night and also thought the spe
cial meeting out of order Inasmuch as the
mayor's appointment waa In the bands of
the olty clerk before- that meeting was
called, to order. . 1
Herbert 8. Daniel said Friday morning
he would proceed to file his bond and qual
ify In the usual manner and meet develop
ments as they arise.
jur. uanieia uonu win om ueiore ma cuun
cll for approval 'Tuesday evening at the
regular meeting." At the same meeting; the
mayor will present to the council another
appointment for the office of city prose
cutor. In the event of Mr. Lee refusing to sur
render the office to Mr. Daniel on demand,
the latter will, ltis reported, Institute quo
warranto proceedings in the district court.
advantsge of the absence of the regular
clerk from behind the desk, received the
package and appropriated the contents.
All the bell boys at the time of the oc
eurrence remained on duty for their full
time and the absence of the two boys In
question was not noticed until It cams
time for them to report again. The Oe
tectlves are now hard at work on the
case.
JAIL TO MAKEMAN LOVE WIFE
Thirty Pay Olvea Torn Fleteaer as
Meaas of Aroaslasr Marital
Affectloa.
Tom Fletcher, 1311 Davenport street, had
several different varieties of hard luck In
police court Friday morning. But the num
ber of hi residence, 1311, was enough to
cause him some trouble. However, If he
hsd only remained there Instead of going
to see his wife where she works In a
house on Ninth street " he might have
escaped falling Into the hands of the po
lice. Thursday night he went to see his
wife and Informed her that If she did not
produce about $230 which he knew was In
her possession he would proceed to change
the map of her face. A fight ensued and
Mrs. Fletcher Jumped out of a second story
window In order to escspe the' wrath of
her better half. Fletcher was arrested and
Friday morning waa given a sentence of
thirty days In Jail In the hope that he
may learn to appreciate his wife.

LOOKING GLASS IN HIS HAT
Mirror la Headgear Problem for Two
Nebraska Cattlesnea at
Hotel.
Charles Conway, a Cheyenne man, and
T. K. Anderson, a stockman from out about
( Sidney, put In an appearance at the Mer
chants a few days ago, both, wearing- new
Stetson hats of Identical color' and shape
even to the four dents In the crown. Con
way waa so well pleased with his hat that
he had pasted on the Inside top a small,
round looking glass so he could admire the
hat and himself simultaneously. Anderson
was satisfied with the Stetson mark of re
spectability. Both hats were placed on the - hat rack
aa the two Went into dinner, where It says,
"Not responsible for lost hats." In the
shifting around of other hats the two (stet
sons became changed In their positions and,
fs is the usual result, Anderson got Con
way's' and Conway got Anderson's hat In
the wind-up. Anderson's bat was a little
tight for Conway, so Conway' started out
on a hunt tor. his' hat. Neither of the two
men knew the other and each was Ignorant
of the similarity of their head covering.
Conway finally espied Anderson In the
moist refreshment booth at the hostelry and
asked . an exchange of hats. Anderson
remonstrated and remarked that he was
wearing his own hat all right.
"Tou may think so," said Conway, "but
my hat Is a magic hat. Now If you will

Anderson took oft the hat and saw bis
own reflection In tie little round glass and
admitted that he didn't know how homely
he was until he got a short range look.
The hats were exchanged, but Anderson In
sisted on exchanging the coin for the
drinks Instead of having Conway Ao It.
