Tl.fs are. good deya for the bogus boys.
The office of the-United Stntas district
attorney has received a : rotl of mones
from Wahoo that looks big enough to
break any, 'financial stringency, but the
trouble I the , currency Is not standard.
It was a bunch of currency Issued by the
Stat Bank of New Brunswick and tha
Merchants' and Planters' Bank of Saran
nah, da., ef various denominations that
looked good at first glance and had been
taken In by merchants and others at
' Wahoo, but- tha Walioo banks declined to
accept. It n depoalt ta good collateral. .
Iarga auirrltjtlea of this wildcat money
lias been placed In circulation In the rural
districts' 'recently,. ' more particularly up
about Mmden-, Norfolk and at points along
the Otrlon Purine as far west as the Col
orado line. . The money bears a striking
similarity to United States currency and
is easily Imposed upon parties not thor
oughly . versed In the intricacies of the
genuine currency of the realm.
As the money Is not actually counter
feit, the passage of It does not come under
the laws against counterfeit money and
hence the government cannot take any
legal cognisance of It other than to cau
tion the public against receiving It.
Only Heroine for Victims.
The only recourse the victims have Is to
bring suit in the state courts against the
parties passing it for obtaining goods or
other money in , exchange by false pre
tenses. A considerable quantity of this money has
been received at the government secret
service headquarters recently from parties
who have been swindled by It, with the
request that the government look into the
matter. But the officers can do nothing In
the premises.
Owing to the present conditions the swin
dler who have been distributing this New
Brunswick and Georgia money are reaping
a rich harvest from the unsuspecting.
The only thing the government authori
ties can-do In the matter Is to caution the
public to be on the lookout for Stale Bonk

Old Dog Tray, Probably O. K. Horn wa
the victim of a warm old- roast Tuesday
evening. -Having 15 cents left, he went to
the butcher shop and traded It for a choice
piece of steak. As It was necessary for a
hort stop to be made at the poatofflce, the
meat package wa left at the door with
some other things. On the return every
thing checked up O. K. but the package
in question. Its whereabouts seemed clouded
With mystery. Some of the roasters had
the nerve to lay the trick on a quadruped
that we call the dog, probably they were
correct but remembering some biped's
canine teeth, it would be bad taste to blame
the beast when there were so many of the
latter passing. Horn and wife had meat
for supper If It did coat 80 cents per pound.

Harrowing Tale The basket ball team
that went to Central City last Thursday
was somewhat surprised when they found
they had 'to play the state champions in
place of a little hlch acbool team, as was
understood over the 'phone. ..Every fellow j
was over Ave and a half feet tall and some I
six-footers. . Tou can imagine Jakie, the I
tailor, and little Fred Hultqulst playing, i
When the first half was played both sides
were sweating and puffing like race horses.
Each side earned their money and when
the second half was railed off blood had i
been ahed on both, sides, one fellow getting ;
It In the nose and the-other on the Up, so it) '
was tit for tat. If our boy would have
been a tall a tha Central City boy they
would have carried' off the honor a state (
champions.' As It was, we got second best

Andrew J. Smith, (1 yeara of age and

pital, shot and killed himself In his room
yesterday at 12:10 p. m.j He sent the bullet
Into his right temple and It passed entirely
thaough his head, struck the ' wall and
bounded back on the bed. The coroner took
charge of the body and probably will bury
It today. '
Sunday Smith walked into the office of
Superintendent Farrar and said he wished
to deposit enough money to defray his fu
neral expenses when his time should come.
He then drew out a bag containing S1C0 In
sliver and left it to the credit of Rev. J.
Narver Gortner, pastor of McCabe Meth

acting strangely for at least a year, little
thought wa given hla action of Sunday
until a pistol report rang out from his room
yesterday.
Superintendent Farrar and other attend

burst opea the door and found the body of
Smith reclining on the bed. He had but re

HAY CAR CASE IS APPEALED
Northwestern Tales Up Suit of Frank
Dabney of Stuart.
MATTER OF COURT JURISDICTION
Edward F. Grtnies ef Omaha Asm
elated Deaatr Oil Inspector
Wetback t'ltlseaa Make
Rrqaeat.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Got. . (Special Telegram
The Northwestern railroad ha appealed to
the supreme court the case brought by
Frank Dabney of Stuart before Judge
Westover asking for a mandamus to com
pel the road to furnish him five cars a
day for ten day for the shipment of hay.
The mandamus was granted by Judge
Westover. Judge - Letton has allowed a
supersedeas, the bond being fixed at I2.BC0
and signed by R. W. McGlnnls, Northwest
ern agent at Lincoln.
The railroad claims It la not In the juris
diction of the district court to mandamus a
railroad In this way, but that the duty
devolves upon the railroad commission, and
the district court may bo called Into the
case when an order of the commission la In
controversy. The case will, therefore,
bring up for determination the authority
of these two departments of the state gov
ernment. It Is intimated by those who have fol
lowed the ault that the action was timed
for effect In the Judicial fight now being
waged In the Fifteenth district. A num
ber of complainants originally sought to
mandamus the road, but their cases were
withdrawn, priority being given the one by
Dabney. He says he got the cars ordered
on the first day, but none afterward. He
is obliged to store hi hay now and It will
result in great financial loss.
New Rate for Special Cars.
The Union Pacific railroad has asked per
mission of the State Railway commission
to make numerous changes In the handling
of baggage, dogs and sporting gooda here
tofore shipped a baggage and for the use
of special cars for parties. On the latter
proposition General Passenger Agent
Lomax wrote to the commission as follows:
Our rule at present, over the entire
system, covering transportation of a spe
cial car and party, is as follows:
"For the transportation of a special car
and party of eighteen persons or less,
eighteen full tickets at regular or special
rates will be required: for more than eigh
teen one ticket for each additional person."
This rule, you will observe, does not
carry any minimum charge- and eighteen
fares paid between stations adjacent to
one another does not allow sufficient
revenue to make the service profitable.
Therefore, We will place In effect the fol
lowing rule In other states, and on Inter
state business, and within Nebraska if our
petition for permission to do so is given
favorable consideration by the commission:
"Parties requiring special coaches or
urst-class parlor or sleeping car on regular
train, or second-class Immigrant or tourist
deeping car, and desiring exclusive use
thereof, must be cherged not less than
eighteen authorised first-class fares for
each car for the distance traveled by them,
except that when second-class Immigrant
or tourist cars are used for one way trips
ftecondt-olass tickets will be accepted,
where second-class fares are In effect or
authorised. An additional fare at the same
respective rate must be charged for each
adult person or naif rare tor eacn cnua
of half fare age; provided, that the mini
mum charge shall not be less than 2& for
each movement of the car. Employes of
chartered or prlvara cars, vlx. conductors,
cooks or porters (not private servantaf will
be regarded as train employes and carried
free.
It has likewise been our custom to fur
nish extra baggage cars for parties of less
than twenty-five full fares on basis of
charges of lfi cents per mile, with minimum
charge of JIB for tch movement of car,
or free upon payment of twenty-five full
fares with minimum of $25.
It Is now our desire to change this ar
rangement to read as follows:
"a For Dartlea nay In not less than
twenty-five adult fares, one extra baggage
car without additional cost, proviaea reve
nue for each movement of party shall not
be less than $25; for each additional twenty
five fares an additional baggage without
cost.
"bFor parties paying less than twenty
flve adult tares one extra baggage car at
rate of 25 cents per mile with minimum
charge of $15 for each movement, using
mileage via shortest authorized ticketing
route In computing charge."
The proposed charges are considered very
reasonable for the service per'ormed, and
the rate In effect at present does not yield
proper compensation. They are In effect
generally throughout the central western
states on all llnea of railroads and as our
tariiT placing them In effect In other terri
tory is ready for the press prompt re
sponse to this petition will be much appre
ciated. Miners'' packs, steamer chairs, invalid
chairs, guns In cases, saddles In bags,
cricket, base ball, or other cluh parapher
nalia In closed receptacles, gas cylinders,
ued In producing a theatrical performance
upon the stage of a hall or theater, have
heretofore been checked free. The new
rules, if permitted, will provide these
articles may be checked, gross weight, to
be charged for at regular excess baggage
weight, with minimum iweight of fifty
pounds for such article, no charge to be
less than 50 cents.
Two dogs In crate or provided with collar
and chain have heretofore been ahipped
free. The proposed rule provide for a
regular excess baggage charge, the mini
mum weight tobe fifty pounds. Not more
than two dogs will be checked for one
passenger. Owner must claim dogs at di
vision point and call for them at baggage
car door.
The Union Pacific also asks permission
to extend Its 1,000 mile book so they can
be used to Barton and Ralton and Jules
burg and Weir, Colo. Between a number
of competitive point mileage will be de
tached on the basis of the short line.

Coal Coatraetor Fall now a.
Superintendent Kern of the Insane asylum
at Hastings has written to the Board of
Public ' Land and Building telling the
board that he had bought $161.15 worth of
coal at $3.25. The White Breast Coal com
pany of Lincoln has the contract to furnish
this Institution coal, but not having deliv
ered the ssme, Kern said it was up to him
to purchase coal locally or shut down the
Institution. He wrote that the contractors
had coal on the road, but It was confiscated
by the railroad company for Its own use.
The board has not decided whether It will
make the Lincoln concern pay for the coal
bought locally.
No Torkey Dlaaera.
The request of Superintendent Kern of
the Hastings asylum to be allowed to buy
turkeys for Thanksgiving and for Clirlst
mas has been turned down by the Board
of Purchase and Supplies on the grounds
that turkeys come too high and chickens
still taste good. 'AH the other Institutions
will be notified 'that the usual Thanks
giving turkey dinner Is to bn dispensed
with. The cost of the turkey dinner would
be for the three asylums about $2,500, and
the board thinks In view of the fact that
It - will not atand for any deficiencies. It
will have to cut out the turkeys.

WILL IMPROVE ARMY LIFE
First Toilet Necessities to Be Issued
to Becruits Free.
LESS GYMNASTICS AND HIKING
Enlisted Men Will Also Be Required
to Do Less Work and Their
Ration Will Be 'Im
proved. WASHINGTON. Oct. 34 Acting Secre
tary Oliver of the War department has
determined upon reforms in the army In
ordji to make tlic servlch more attractlvo
for the enlisted men.. Congress will be
asked for more money for the men, and
the War department will endeavor, mean
tirrfe, to check the complaints, by exerting
executive authority. Ono of the principal
causes of dissatisfaction among the men
ha been the pra ttce of issuing tot et necea
Miles prescribed by the army regulations
and taking tho cost out of the enlisted
man's first .month's pay. This would set
him back Vi or 17 and It Is believed to be
the reason that desertions have been
numerous among men who have served
only a month, .
An order was Issued today by General
Oliver providing that the soldier shall re
ceive his first razor, tooth brush, soap and
similar articles without cost to htm, but
that thereafter he must keep his toilet kit
supplied. The average annual enlistments
are about 20,000 men, but It Is estimated
that the change will cost the government
only about 160,000 a year. '
Another reform was provided that the
daily gymnastic shall be thirty minutes.
Instead of an hour, and that the time shall
be fixed other than immediately following
drill duty. The weekly marches have been
dispensed with and hereafter the men will
take their "hikes" once a month only.
General Oliver Intend also to limit the
character ot work that must be don
around army posts by enlisted men. At
some of the large pelnt where, the grounds
are extensive these tasks have grown up
enormously and the work Is not all of a
character that should be done hy soldiers.
To put an end to this will require an ap
propriation in order to have the work done
by civilian labor.
Still another recommendation will be In
tho direction -of Improving the rations.
These; are now Issued so generously that
by good management the cooks make good
savings and the company quartermaster Is
able to turn these over for butter and i
milk, which are not supplied to the sol- I
dlers by tlie government. General Oliver's
plan Is to reduce the supply of rations to
the actual needs and Issue butter and milk, J
so that all' companies will fare the same.
