Ie liriT by Judge Troup Saturday morn
ing;. Oiler st once nave notice; of anneal
and mill Rive a bond auspcndind tha sen
tence until his case Is heard by tha su
preme court. He was placed In the cus
tody of the sheriff pending tha approval
of his bou1 by the supreme court.
Orler .as convicted on seven counts of
failure to turn money he had collected as
clerk of the police court Into tha city
treasury. He made no statement to the
court, but liis attorney, John O. Yelser,
asked for a light sentence, declaring he
believed his client had turned every dollar
be had collected Into the treasury.
In Imposing the sentence Judge Troup
said that, while Grier may not have ap
propriated any of the funds with criminal
Intent, the affairs of the office were con
ducted In such a loose manner that Orlcr
could expct but one result, an absolute
Inability to account for the funds that
had passed through his hands.
Oiler mlRlit have received a sentence of
nix months and a tine of H.noo.
Veterinarian t.aw tiood.
The constitutionality of the state vet
erinary law was upheld by Judge Troup In
Ms opinion overruling tle motion for a
new trial In the case of A. I.. Van Gordon,
who was convicted of advertising himself
ss a veterinary surgeon without securing a
license from the state honrd. Judge Troup
said he considered the law a wise one and
calculated to raise the standards of the
profession. Me thought the defendant
should co-operate to help enforce it In
stead of violating It. Van Gordon was fined
1.6 and cost, the minimum under the stat
ute, which he paid.
In passing on the motion Judge Troup
took the unusual posttlon that domestic
animals have an abstract right in law
which men are bound to respect. Ho said
these rights Included humane treatment
and skilled assistance when sick or In
jured. These rights, he said, are not aa
broad as the rights of the human family.
but he cited instances to show that they
existed.
Mr. Yelser, attorney for Van Gordon,
said he would not carry the cass to the
supreme court.
Yoniiu forger Sentenced.
Edward Allison. 2 years old, and Henry
Ttertrand, 23 years old, were two youthful
forgers who pleaded guilty to an attempt
to get money etiNy by signing some one's
else name to checks. Allison waa given
two years In the penitentiary and Bertrand
three years. AlllBon said he was drinking
with another man. when their money gave
out and the other fellow suggested he draw
up a check and sign the name of hla em
ployers, Kilpatrlck & Collina, to it. He
did so and wus arrested lifter realizing $17
on the check.
Bertrand went Into the" forgery business
by the wholesale. He opened up by steal
ing a few blank checks from tjc back of
a check book belonging to the Dooley
Moody Construction company. The monoy
he raised on these came so easy he sjole
the whole book. He was caught passing
one of the checks on a saloon keeper at
Twenty-sixth and Kcavenworth. He wept
'While Judge Troup was talking to him and
referred to Ms mother, who Is still living,
but in Ignorance of the trouble he Is In.

HAN PAK'S SLAYERS AT LARGE
Mm Who Killed thine. R eat attract
Keeper Not Yet la
Custody.
Two white men numed Rogers and an.
other named I'omrey, suspects In the Han
Pak murder case, have not yet been ap
prehended, hut as the police are fairly
certain of their hiding place it la not likely
that they will escape without having to
face the charge. The two Rogers broth
ers were waiters In Pak's restaurant, and
Pomrey Is said to have been a bell boy
at the Iler Grand until recently.
What may develop into a clew of some
kind Is the finding by Kd. 8tout, keeper
of th city street gang, of two bloody
towels, which he discovered In an alley
near Fifteenth and Douglas street, at 9
o'clock Saturday morning. They were
oaked, through with blood and wrapped
tn an Omaha newspuper. One was marked
either "R. I.." or "A. L.." It la impossible
to distinguish exactly. It has been thought
from the beginning that the assailants of
the Chinamen muy also have been hurt,
and the finding of the towels only a block
and a half from the Sing Hat Ijow res
taurant, th. scene of tha murder, en
courages this belief.
The detective department Is particularly
anxious 'to And the culprits In the ease
as the murder waa one of the most brutal
that has been committed In Omaha for
years. The coroner's inquest over the body
was held Saturday afternoon at 4 o'clock.
Burial arrangements will not be made until
Psk's relatives, who were expected Satur
day night, shall arrive.

Is Glad to Get Back to

Mr. and Mrs. N. P. IX1g arrived In
Omaha Saturday morning. Since their
marriage, on June 11. at Brookllna. Mass.,
the home of the bride, who was Mlaa Whit
ney, they have spent the time in New
Hampshire and Maasaobustts.
"I am glad to hear that crop prospects
re good," said Mr. Dodge. "A short time
go I was told that the Nebraska crop
would be short, and so the surprise when
1 learned of the real condition was an
agreeable one. I might hv had accurate
Information all along as to the crops If I
had taken the papers, but I refused to read
' the papers In order to get away from
tfeougbta ot buatness altogether for a time.
, "Tba atmosphere ot confidence and pros
perity out west here lends a contrast to
the gloom of Wall street. The brokers and
peculators along the street shake their
beads sadly and say business Is dull, but
I do not see that It has any effect on the
prosperity of Nebraska. Wall street is in
dignant at Harriman. They say there that
he brought on the recent panic and the
dullneaa which has followed."
Mr. Dodge aaid he bad made few ob
servations regarding eastern real estate;
he had spent most of the time in the small
towns.
Mr. and Mrs. Dodge will live at How
