St. Joseph A Grand Island Has Seat

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Jan. ll.-(Speclal Telegram.)
The report was circulated In the Llndell
lobby tonight that the Northwestern rail
road, Nebraska's "only good" railroad, had
began the distribution of passes today, A
party In a position to know asserted that
If any member of the legislature desired
to go home over that road he would be
accommodated with the old-time courtesy
by application to Bob McGlnnla, the "legi
timate" representative of the road In Lin
coln. The report Is also current from a reliable
source that the Burlington will lift the ban
the first of the week, and there will be no
need for any legislator to walk home during
the remainder of the session. The Rock
Island has taken applications for trans
portation under consideration before Issuing
any courtesy, and the Union Pacific lobbyist
here denies that his road Is going to furnish
any transportation to any one.
During the day Representative Jennison of
Clay county returned with thanks an annuil
over the St. Joseph A Grand Island rail
road. Speaker Nettleton did the same thing
yesterday. The Lincoln Traction company
lias gotten into the game with free street
car tickets to the members of the legisla
ture. The tickets distributed are not passes,
but the regulation tickets, and are given
away in strips of a half dosen or more.
These are so numerous In some quarters
that most any one not In a hurry can afford
to ride.
The fact that the members of the senate
thought the Wllsey resolution to Jail lobby
ists who came within the jurisdiction of
the upper house and to Investigate visitors
was too radical, has encouraged some of
the lobbyists and they pretend to believe
the good start made by the legislature will
terminate as they have In the legislatures
of the past. . This Is supposed to account
for the action of the Northwestern today
and the contemplated action of the other
roads. ,
Demand Relief from Overflow.
FREMONT, Neb., Jan. 11 (Special.)
There was a good representation of resi
dents of the south side at a meeting called
by Mayor Woli, at the city hall. last night,
to consider the best means for controlling
the Platte river west of town. There was
a considerable display of oratory and very
emphatic demand by property owners whose
houses are full of water and their lots
covered with Ice. A committee was ap
pointed to confer 'with the county board,
which Is now In session, and try to obtain
an appropriation for putting In a levee or
some piling. Those familiar with the
peculiarities of the Platte say that there
has been a great change In the river during
the last three years and that the main -current,
which once followed between Murphy
and Hawthorne islands, now comes against
the north bank, .directly west of South
street The Burlington grade from the
brewery south has made the situation much
worse by damming up the water, which
would otherwise flow southeast and cover a
large acreage. The .board has been directed
by the city council to put In additional

WILLIAMS ACQUITTED OF MURDER
Jury Holds Kllllasr of Father Was
Jastlflable.
AUBURN, Neb., Jan. ll.-(Speclal.)-The
Jury in the case of the State against Clar
ence Williams for the killing of his father,
Isaao Williams, which has been deliber
ating since Tuesday evening, reached a
verdict of not guilty today at 1 o'clock.
This case was one of the hardest fought
that has been tried in this county for many
years. The killing rose out of a family
quarrel, which was commenced In the
house at noon and continued to the barn
yard, where one of the boys asked his
father for money to attend school at Peru,
and his father refused. This seemed to
throw the father into a fit of passion and
he grabbed a pitchfork and started for
the boy, saying, "I'll money .you." . The
older brother, standing near, seeing that
his younger brother was In danger of being
killed by the on raged father, ran to a shed
nearby and secured a loaded shotgun, com
ing back to where the quarrel was going
on and shot his father In the back as he
was making for his brother with the pitch'
fork, killing him Instantly, -It also de
veloped that the father had an uncontrol
lable temper and would fly Into a fit of
passion at the slightest provocation, and
It 'was all the entire family could do at
such times to keep him from doing bodily
harm to some one of them.
Gold in Crop of Fowls.

the yellow metal In the contents of the
birds' crops and brought the bits to a
Jeweler for examination, They were pro
nounced the real thing. Investigation re
vealed the same precious metals In tho
sand around a spring and examination by
a jeweler showed this to be real gold and
real copper.

day concerning Postum Food Coffee, "I

been sick for five years and fulling all the
time. I would drink coffee for breakfast
and then blont up, my stomach would be
so full of acid I'd belch up gas and have
the water brash.
"Then would come heart burn and a
rumbling and cramp In my stomach all
night would kep me awake. Then I'd go
two or three days without eating, with
some improvement. But as soon, at I
would eat something and drink coffee, I'd
be as bad as ever.
"About throe months ago I got so bad
I thought I'd have to stop everything. I
had read about coffee being hurtful, so
I told my wife not to make any for me
for a while. I thought I'd see for myself.
In two days I was lost without coffee
waa so sick I couldn't eat .anything.
(The reaction of the coffee drug.) I
bought a package of Postum and my wife
made It strictly according to directions.
You should have seen the change. The
whole family now use Postum, and I
haven't sour stomach or bloating,, rest
well at night, am well and hearty. I
drink all the Postum I want and when
ever I want It. The more I drink the bet
ter I feel.
"Since I lift-off coffee and began to
use Postum my nerves are steady my
head feels clear, I don't get stupid, tired
and laxy any more.
