A big grist of work has been cut out for the Lincoln term, which begins In May, many, of the cases hitherto set for trial In the Omaha district being transferred to Lincoln. Most of the court records are still here at Omaha and the work of retran scribing them for the Lincoln subdivision la no sinecure by any means, and Mr. Har rison has started into the work with the determination so characteristic of all his undertakings.

When J. 11 Roark, superintendent of the local department cf the company, entered the business office at tha usual tuna In tha morning he found one window and tha door of the safe open. Hasty examination quickly showed him the Inner strong box also waa open and the money placed there the night before waa missing. The com bination on the safe door had been worked. Tha exact sum stolen has not been de termined, but has been estimated at least $96. .. It had been placed In tha strong hox at the usual closing U0 time Monday evening by Misa Hayes, tha cashier. Tha Omaha offices of the corporation occupy tha three rooms at one end of tna nan on the fourth floor of the building. The cashier's and superintendent's office. In which the safe Is kept, l on tha Inside, with the windows opening on the inside court. Along the windows on that floor Is a wide ledge, which would give any per son no trouble to walk from Window to window. That one of the windows was found open by Mr. Roark Indicates that entrance was secured by Climbing out on the ledge from a window at tne elevator shafts and passing along the short distance to the Metropolitan office Windows. No Cloe at Hand. No clue, so far as given out, was left by the burglars and no theory Is held as to how many committed the robbery, i ne building Janitors and watchmen say they saw no persons hanging around the hall ways In a suspicious manner ana couia offer no idea as to the men nor as to wnar time the deed occurred. The police were notified during the forenoon and detectives placed on the case.

They left about fifteen minutes later than usual Monday, however, ana it was about when Mlas Hayes placed tho money in the safe box. The other two rooms of the local offices are occupied by agents, a large force of whom la employed, but none of these ever enters room 414 farther than the cashier's wicket.

Nothing Is known at headquarters, De partment of the Missouri, as yet relative to who will become the new commander of tha department to succeed General Oreely, who is exercising the command In connection with his duties as commander of the Northern Military division. It Is not thought In military circles that the command of the department will be an nounced until after the beginning of the new fiscal yeai, July 1, when the appro priations contemplated by tha new army bill will be available, and tha revision of divisional and departmental lines may tske place with the general rearrangement of commanders for the divisions and depart ments. Tha Department of the Missouri being one of the most Important In tha entire country, embracing several of the largest military poU In the country, makes It a prtse eagerly sought for by military com manders of high rank. Major General Constant Williams, now In command of the Department of Colorado, and Brigadier Oeneral William M. McCaakey. now h com. mand of the Department of Texaa, are mentioned as available timber for the Mis souri department, and at the same time It is thought that In the event of tha discon tinuance of the military divisions, which Is under contemplation by the general staff of the army, and retaining only the de partmenta. that Oeneral Oreely Is . not averse td taking command of tha Depart ment of the Missouri. PRATT SUIT BEFORE KENNEDY Cnaa bat la let for tha Not for tha Date Judge, ROOSEVELT IS INVITED HERE President Will Be Asked to In Omaha letter Part of May. apeak The divorce suit of Julia Montgomery Pratt against Colonel James H.

It is claimed by hie attorneys that ho has no legal residence In tho stute since the filing of the suit.

He will show that his wife, who waa more than forty years younger than he. (she being J8 years old at the time of their marriage), repeatedly expressed Impatience because her aged hue- , band continued to live. She was tn get tao.coo at hia death, according to an ante nuptial agreement. If the divorce suit ts decided against Mrs. Pratt she will, of course, forfeit all claim to any of the property.

SIX MONTHS F0R FALSEHOOD Additional Penalty Tacked Onto Sen tence Beeaose tbe Prisoner Tells Me. 81x months In the penitentiary for tell ing a lie. That Is what Fred Bchnelderwlnd, ac oused of forgery, got In the criminal divi sion of the district court Tuesday morning before Judge Troup. Bchnelderwlnd had entered a plea Monday of not guilty, but had changed his mind and decided to plead guilty and begin serving his time. When asked by the court whether he had any thing to say why sentence should not bo passed Upon him he replied: "Nothing except that I never done It." Judge Troup has a habit of going to the bottom of thlnga "If you didn't commit this crime why are you pleading guilty to it?" he demnndtd. The prisoner mumbled something about not standing any show before a Jury. But Judge Troup was not to be put off with that. 'If you didn't commit this crime I shall certainly not sentence you to the peniten tiary,", he said. "You will have a trial before a Jury." 'Aw, Well. I done It," admitted the pris oner. The court had Intended to lmnoae a sentence of one year, but he added six months for the falsehood, making a total of eighteen months. . "I hate a lie almost more than the crime Itself," said Judge Troup later. "If he had been an old offender I 'would have added a heavier penalty for his attempt to get out of It by falsehood."..

"Every Indication la there will be plenty of settlers for every acre of land which la put on the market under an Irrigating ditch In the west," said Oenrral Manager Hoi- drege of the Burlington, who has Just re- i turned from a trip through the northwest- ern country, accompanied by C. E. Spens, general freight agent. They visited In the Black Hills, went as far north as Billings, i over the Cody line snd over the new line to Worland. "The Influx of settlers this spring seems unprecedented," added Mr. Holdrege. "We met them In large numbers everywhere, all looking for homes and land to farm. The claas of settlers Is Improving every year, for people are realising there Is a vast amount of money to be made In western farm lands, both for speculation and for farming. We encourage all who wish to settle In the West and special rates are now in which are moving thousands to western Nebraska and eastern Wyoming.

We are r-olng ahead and will complete the survey, but I cannot tell when the line Will be built, becauae no work has been author ised on this extension. "During my residence In Nebraska I don't remember a spring when I thought tha country looked aa good as It doea this spring. It Is much earlier tban usual and the grass on the ranges has a good start. The winter wheat has gone through tha winter In splendid shape and there Is plenty of moisture in the ground from the rain and snow to Insure a splendid crop of win ter wheat. Conditions 'are most exoellant for starting all aorts of crops and . the farmers are not walling for spring rain, but are all busy, which means they will get a better start this spring than ever. The supply of moisture has put the ground In condition' for plowing, and while most of the farmers have not started on the corn crop they will be ready for that by the first of the month."

Omaha officials of the Harrlman and HID lines In Omnha aay they have heard nothing of the proposed rate Increase on lumber from the Pacific ccaat to St. Paul. The roads have never met the 40 cents rate to Omsha, which has prevailed On one class of lumber to St Paul. While the dispatches say nothing of the matter. It la thought the rate could not have been raiaed to St. Paul without a similar raise being made to the Missouri river points, because the northern fads run to 8ioux City, aa well ns St. Paul. "Should that report be true It will mean the reissuing of a new lumber tariff by the T'nlon Pacific, which will cost over IT.onn," said a prominent Union Pacific freight official.
