bounty Opllos Bill,
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Feb. T.-8peclal. The house
acted on bills on third reading the first
thing this morning.
H. R. 137 Providing mutual fire Insur
ance companies may do business in othor
states when they have on deposit securities
to the amount of 1100,000.
H. R. 66 Providing Judges are ineligible
to run for other offices while on the bench.
Was killed.
II. R. 169 Providing Juries In Justice of
the peace courts shall consist of six men
chosen from a panel of eighteen. Was
passed.
Among the bills reported for the general
die waa Lee's bill providing no number of
the Omaha Fire and Police Board can be
a candidate for office while holding such
position.
' While a number of petitions have beenj
received for ana against the county option
bill, the council and mayor of Holdrfe are
the first olty officials to express themselves
oh the measure; Funk of Phelps this morn
ing Introduced the following:
Be It resolved. That we, the mayor and
council of the city of Holdrege, Neb.,
hereby memorialise the state legislature
in opposition to the so-called county option
bills Introduced 1 therein, and that In sup
port or aucn opposition we urge tne rouow
lng reaeons:
f. That such bills, while in respect to a
matter of great political Importance and
division, are not the reflection of any ma
jority sentiment expressed n the last elec
tion; that they were not made an open or
legitimate lnsue in' the state campaign, and
that to enact the aame Into law at thla time
Is. not only to betray an honest trust and
confidence reposed by thousands of Voters
throughout the state, but to give effect to
the dishonest and dishonorable methods of
designing or unscrupulous ' politicians and
partisans.
i. That the manifest purpose of such bills
Is to give unfair advantage to one division
of our citlsena over another, and not an
honest reform of the present liquor laws
of the state, ane that the inevitable result
of enactment would be to weaken and
Inpalr such laws, by making them less
effective and more difficult of enforcement,
by separating political power from official,
and by developing the Issue of license upon
a suffrage unresponsive and alien to the
locality and Interests Involved.
S. That said bills are in derogation of the
principles of home rule and municipal au
tonomy, and of the Just, salutary and
necessary rights, powers and duties of the
Cities, towns and villages of the state,
which in the free exercise of. their func
tions s re doing more than the state itself,
or any other political subdivisions thereof,
to protect persons and 'property and per
sonal and property rights, to preserve
order, peace and health, Uo effect sanita
tion and quarantine , and prevent infec
tions and contagions, to erect and main
tain public works and buildings and make
public highways and other improvements,
to build UD and maintain an effliMont nvntom
of education, and to promote our general!
wenare ana progress.
C. C. Herring of Omaha spoke against

ucatioa laws, was read.
The aenate doubled back on Its trail snd
reversed Its former action dispensing with
a apecial fireman for the aenate. The dl
vstoa several days ago came about because
seine of tha members Insisted It was the
duty of the Board of Publlo Lands and
liulldlnxs to heat the eapltol bulldlne, and
the fact the senate was in sneuton did not
mak. any difference. ' King of Pvlk tn-
Blnted the action was Illegal and no such
employe was provided for In the Sheldon
law. Today the senators were given to un
derstand unless thry provided a fireman
they would have to deliberate in a cold
room. When the discussion began the
room waa so cold the senators were hud
dling down In their seals and blowing their
fingers. Five mlmites after McKesson's mo
motlon to employ a fireman carried, -however,
the registers began to hiss and in a
short time the room was so warm the Jan

When 8. F. 14ft came up for hearing.
Farmer John McKesson of Lancaster read
law out of a book to the lawyers In the
senate and tried to, convince them they
didn't know what they were talking about
when they declared the bill unconstitu
tional. The attorneys contended the state
had no power to bar foreign companies
from appealing to the federal court, but
McKesson secured a volume of supreme
court decisions and read one relating to a
Wisconsin case, which he contended prox&d
his point. The lawyers aaked further ttnie
to examine the decision, and at their re
quest the bill was referred to the judi

The girl had Identified the writing, but
th. court held that tha date must alao be

The Utters which eventually were of

which she often .declared, tn response to
objections by the district attorney was a
repetition of th. reasons she had given
Thsw for refusing to become hi wife.

falsely connected with two others besides
''that blackguard." Only two of a half
dosen letters offered in evidence were read
during the afternoon session. The others
probably will be presented tomorrow when
Mrs. Thaw is again called to the stand.
The conipletlon of the direct examination
of the prisoner's wife will possibly require
all of tomorrow's sessions. There Is an
Impression that Mr. Delmas may strive to
have It occupy the entire day In order
that the young wdman may take advantage
of . tha adjournment over Saturday and
Sunday to recover from her fatigue and be
prepared for the cross-examination of Dis
trict Attorney Jerome.
Mrs. Thaw was not allowed to atats the
names of certain persons, .but by consent
of counsel for the defense she gave them
In whispers to Mr.- Jerome, "In order," as
Mr. , Delmas said, "that the prosecution
may have the fullest possible opportunity
to refute any of her atatements If he can.'1
. Retara from U a rope.
While most of the afternoon was given
over to the argument aa to admissibility
of letters written by Thaw to Mr. Long
fellow, Mrs. Thaw continued at length the
narration of her story. She told of how
she came back from Europe a month ahead
of Thaw. During that month friends pf
Stanford vhlte had told her many stories
about' the young Pittsburg millionaire and
when he returned to America ahe refused
to see lm except In tha presence of a
third person.. , .
"He looked very sad." she said, "and
told me they had been making a fool of me.
He said he understood why it was done. I
afterwards got so many conflicting ac
counts from the persons who had told me
the stories and I heard their reputations
were so bad that I Anally told Mr. Thaw
I did not believe the stories. He said:
'Tou know I have never lied to you' and
h never has." '
She paid other tributes to her "husband
to save whose life she braved all.
"When I told him the atory in Paris,"
she said, "hs came to me and picked up
the hern of my skirt and kissed it and aald
hs would always love me. lie nearly al
ways called me his angel. Ws sat together
that night until daylight talking the matter
over. The effect on Harry was terrible. .
Wait Beaded Her ta School.
"Stanford White sent me to school In
New Jersey in October. 1902, and early in
1M4 I became 111. - The doctors rams and
said an operation was necessary. They
told me I was very sick, but did not say
what waa the matter. Mr. Thaw came to
see me, and was ths last person, except
tbe doctors, whom I saw before being
placed under the Influence of an anesthello.
He had been told It waa dangerous fur ma
to talk. Bo he came tn quietly and kneeled
by tbe bed and kissed my band and looked
at me for a moment and went out.
"When I recovered I found he had made
arrangements for my mother to take me
abread to recuperate. It waa while we
were la Paris on this trip that he proposed
to me."
While the jury wss on its way to court
thla morning a enow shoveler In tha street
Shouted "Vote for Thaw."
Ha was promptly arrested and taken be

after a severe reprimand.
