Christian Science Bill Dead. '
By concurrence In the report of the mis
cellaneous affair committee to Indefinitely
postpone g. F. 108, otherwise called the antl-,
Christian Science bill, the senate today dla-'
posed of the hard fight that was threat
ened over the bill. Two year ago the
crap was ,on' of the hardest of any In the
legislature and It premised to be on of the
bitterest, of the session this year: Those
who were back of the proposed legislation
decided public sentiment was too strong
against the measure and so they consented
to the klillns? of the bill. ; It 1 now con
sidered unllksly that any legislation! on th
abject. Over which there I a strong differ
ence of opinion, will be passed.
Senator Wilcox and Patrick ar now
drawing' up a bill which will satisfy to as
certain extant the demand of th State
Board of Health and which It is believed
will not be opposed by the Christian Scien
tist, in effect, It will require healers, In
case - where any doubt exist a to a dis
ease being contagious or not, to call In a
regular physician to diagnose, the rase. The
purpose of this ' Is -not to require medical
treatment, but to enable the authorities to
quarantine contagious oaaes to protect the
publlo against them, '
t A bill if this nature was nermosed aa a
compromise by Senator Patrick at the pub
lic meeting Wednesday night and ha was
ha th approval of th medical men' In
the legislature and It Is believed will not
Cause a fightl The physician contended at
th publlo meeting their only purpose was
to protect the publlo from the spread of
contagious diseases, and the proposed bill.
It Is believed, will do that effectively. The
Mil prnhflh" "-til be Introduced In the sen
t next week.
Skirmish Coaaty Ostloau
! A preliminary skirmish on th county
option bill cam up In th senate today.
A vote was avoided, howsver, and it was
decided to take up th bill next week. An
open meeting at which all persona Inter
ested In th bill will have a chance to be
heard will be held Wednesday evening at
I o'clock In the senate chamber and th
bill probably will be taken up th following
day.
' Th question cam up when Patrick'
bill providing that signer of petition for
license should be jointly liable for dam- ,
ges with th holder of th license and his
bondsmen. Byrnes of Platte moved It be
Indefinitely postponed and Patrick asked ,
that It go over until raor of th senators
were present.
It war finally decided to make thl bill
and 8. F- 101. also a saloon bill, a special
order for Thursday at 1 o'clock.. Byrnes
also wanted to maks th county option
bill a special order for the same time, but
Wilcox, whose nam It bears, objected.
Senator Randall Introduced three bills of
Interest to fraternal oganisatlons of ths
state. They were drawn at ths Instance
of prominent members of th order of
Odd Fellow. On bill provide for th
Incorporation of grand and supreme lodges

, Th eenat Judiciary commute today
voted to recommend for Indefinite postpone
ment Clark' bill for th abolition of api
tal punishment. Another bill by Senator
Clarke to give courts power to parol pris
oners was given th Sam treatment by
th committee.
8. F. 25, the bill backed by. th Omaha
street railway interests and', which give
tract railway companies the right to guar
antee and dispose of th stock and bonds
of Interurban ompaniea, will, be jrpvrtd
for passage for th' second tim Monday.
This pas decided on at a meeting pf the
Judiciary committ 'thl afternoon. : When
It cam up ssveraJ day ago It was recom
mitted to th committee. .. Senator tAldrtch,
who mads th principal fight on th- bill ,
at the time and sought to add an amend
ment to it, announced he would not' persist
In his fight when It cam up again, but
would draw -an Independent bill to accom
plish th earns results.
.' He .wanted a provision Incorporated 1rf the
bill that would permit the buying and-selling
of th stock by street railway com
panies, only after an Investigation by th
Stat Railway commission. A bill he-has
already drawn covers this and hs believes
will be more effective than an amendment.
Consequently he ha withdrawn hi opposi
tion and It is believed the bill will -pass
ths committee of th whole Monday. - .
It has been practically agreed among- the
members of the senate -commute on taxa
tion and revenue to report for Indefinite
postponement . McKesson's bill, providing
for th taxation of mortgage. MoKesson
has served notice that he Intends to mtke

the Sheldon law did not provide for a fire
man, and he thought It would be In viola
tlon of the law to do thl. Burn and Mo
Kesson both' declared It' was absolutely
necessary for th senate and house to hav
special firemen In the statehouse heating
plant In order to keep th legislative hall
heated. Patrick of Barpy wanted to know
why It took more firemen to heat th
building , while the legislature was In sea
ion than when th halls were empty.
Burns suggested they might turn oft all
the steam and heat th room by th hot
air generated In th' senate.
It developed the fireman who had been
hired without authority of th senate was

LINCOLN, Feb. 1 (Special.) There
blood on the moon and there are scabs In
course or construction. ' There' excite
ment In the air and a good time a coming.
But it all depend upon what Jo Burns
doe. He has . been challenged, but inas
much as he Is member of th senate and
the challenge comes from a member of the
Iowr house, he may draw his senatorial
dignity about himself and of course that
will savs htm. The challenge Is signed by
Springer of Scott's Bluff county, and It
reads as follows: .
Hon. Joseph Burns, Lincoln, Neb. Dear
Sir: I respectfully challenge you to de
bate on the merits and demerits of Chris
tian Hiience In the city of Lincoln on Mon
day night of next week or on any day that
may be determined In th week. Your re
marks directed toward me on the night of
Wedneeday hut, I regard a a personal
matter. I did not hav the opportunity to
reply to you then. I will do so at any
Urns next week. I hav Kentucky blood In
my veins, but the time of killing Is Over,
and the only thing left Is to fight It out
with ths tongus.
Burns spoke In fsvor of the Christian
Scientists th other night and beta ar be
ing offered that he will give Springer ab
sent treatment to settle th controversy
between them. - - .
Th appropriations commute 1 getting
In shape to draw th general appropriation
bill and th members ar now Investigating
the various sstlmates and requests so that
whan the committee get down to business
it can do tha work in short time. Repre
entatlv Walsh of Douglas went before
th committee t urge that his bill to give
th fair board $7t,0M) for th erection of a
machinery building at th stat fair
grounds be acted upon favorably. Bom
members of th committee ar opposed to
so larg an appropriation, though some
favor It, v
Clark . of Douglas has received . lttr j
from J. B. Baum of the Bennett company
denying that department stores are oppos
ing ths child labor bill. Mr. Baum wrote
that no department store should oppose the
bill. AU children, he said, should be In
school as much as possible during the
school year and should not be allowed to
wotk.
Dodge of Douglas has received a letter
from Charles H. Sargent, a well-known
engineer, formerly of the Union .Paolflo,
tut who Is now located In Lincoln, suggest
ing that the entire state house should be
carefully examined by an expert to look
Into It condition. Mr. Sargent said not
only the east wing was dangerous, but ihe
dome also wss unsafe and. In fact, the
entire building should bo thoroughly In
spected. People, he said, should bs pro
hibited from going to the dome, for It Is
very unsafe. 1
It Is very evident th big county of Custer
Is all shot to pieces over the bill Introduced
by Hamer of Buffalo, relating to the di
vision of counties, but which In reality. It
Is claimed, applies to Custer county. Custer
county has contributed a lobby both for
and against the bill and If the feeling be
tween th lobbyists I an Indication of the
feeling In the county, grindstone and
butcher knives ar surely at a premium.
Those who fsvor th bill claim th senti
ment for th division of Custer county has
been created by real estate dealers who
want to establish four counties and conse
quently four county seats, while those who
are opposed to the 1)111 say It Is fostered
by Frank Young of Broken Bow, the Bur
lington lobbyist, In the Interest of Broken
Bow. Lobbyists from' Custer county ar
working on th floor of th house and so
Intense Is the feeling that even Douglas
county In Its palmiest days could not sur
pass tha western county In factional lines.
Jones from Richardson county, who Is no
spring chicken himself, received his horn
paper from Rulo thl morning and In It
was an account of his mother's ninety
seventh birthday, and th paper also said
tha father was $6 and, though he had been
111 this winter, h was strong snd getting
stronger all th tim. Mr. Jones said both
his father and mother were In good health
at thl tim. -.
Under the head of "special antl-annexa-
tlon edition," a South Omaha newspaper
circulated antl-rallroad regulation doctrine
among th member of th house and
enat this morning. While some of th
matter contained In the special edition re
ferred to the consolidation of Omaha and
South Omaha, a great portion of it was
aimed at th enactment of railroad legis
lation. At the same tim Elmer Brown's
Observer found Its way to the desk of all
th members. This paper is directly op
posed to the special anti-annexation edition
paper.
Th judiciary committee of ths house will
