Eagle Be.
John Grant Pegs, the Inspector of
weights and measures (or the city of
Omaha, la a food deal of a was, for all
thaf he la such a aerloua looking and dig
nified person. He Is aliio something of a
collector and has on exhibition a collec
tion that would do credit to a rogues' gal
lery or the shop of "Skinny, the Tin Ped
dler." "We can't tell much about what we're
going to do -until we've gone and acted,"
says Mr. - Pegg, with a twinkling smile.
,"W have to Investigate a great Ueal with
the probe before we use the knife, so to
vpeak. Of" courser we are not blood-thirsty
hut when a oonfidlng housewife Is getting
three pounds less of potatoes to a pec
hn she-. Is entitled to even the onion,

i Again Mr. Pegg- smiles Ilk a Chlnamai
flaying itlceve .cards, then proceeds tu
Show his coireclion. -
) "Now here's a seals that wus the basis
for a famaua suit at law that went clean
kip to Judge "Muuger. It IS awaiting ship
ment to the makers, but the express coni
pnnles . won't take it, 'showing they don't
take everything they can, trust busters to
the contrary notwithstanding. They Insist
that it oa boxed, so It will weigh more,
but I have no money for crates," and the
iilalntlva Inflection is delightful.
.
Balaace Aaalast t'alckea.
. "And, ..'talking of monvy, tjundsy morn
lug last I went to buy a clticken. The
hutcher weighed it on one of inese light
ning calculators without cliulk or buck
board. The , dividing- line between 38 and
10 cents fell a hairline against my chicken
r ij-.d the butcher ' said. '40 cents, please.'
Naturally, having an affection for that
chtckfio. . I laveaUgated by looking the
scale squarely in itie tace. Then I pro
tested that it ought to be 31 or not more
than .39 .corns, aud won out. saving one (it
the pennies that make the dimes thai
make the dollars- go 'it alone. But 1 gJi
sidetracked too much when discusulng the
thlcs of this business, I started to show
you my collection. Look here.
"This unique and original peck measure
ind Its son, the half peck tin, with these
ong handles on, cost the man 70 cents to
nave them made. He would set them Inside
a paper sack, fill up with vegetables or
fruit, pull out the tin oval and the woman
of trusting nature would be cheating her
husband by paying the price of a real
peck or half for less cubical contents than
she really ought to have. So with this
milk measure. With a surf roller on top,
it couldn't possibly hold a quart; and look
at this skinny half-buahtl tin. I can set
It inside my. legal half-bushel, as you will
note, and there is plenty of room all
around.
Cracks A not tier Good One.
"Here are wooden, tin, iron and steel
contrivancea that are an indictment of
white human nature, because they are
olack with fiaud," and John Grant set off
another smile softly.
"Just feel this bottom," presenting a
oattered n tin peck measure. "Moves up
easy, don't it much easier than wages
move up, eh? Well, a peddler puta his
hand or a big potato or 'apple under this
.uose end, and In a day he can sell twenty
jushels out of fifteen he bought, and have
. fair mess left over.
"Then take this deep ran. Note with
..hat careful abandon the sides are bai
led, Just like a derby hat a man has worn
o celebrate in. The cubical space is there,
.irhaps, but that measure is net honestly
..ullt. Its lines are too willowy and indef
inite, whereas it should be shaped on the
outlines of a Holland vrou v-r-o-u, mean
ing broad and straight up and down. I
don't set up . no claim to mathematical
genius, mind you, but unless blindness hits
me in the daytime I can tell one of these
tricky contraptions at quite a distance."
v t a lace Not the Only Crook.
Then Mr. Pegg goes over nls baskets,
cups, pans, wooden and metal exhibits witii
a gracious pal for each and hitches thereto
an individual story that lllusiraiea his
point.
'"The heathen Chinee is not the only per
son in this world peculiar fur tricks thai
are vain or ways mat are unfitted to
tleep in a round-house."
And all the while he Is bubbling Win
cherub-llke smiles and letting ott speci
mens of causilc comment that must have
made erring ears burn when he gathered
up the pet measures of their owners. He
Insists the term "pet measures" means an
entirely different thing to him than it does
to some statesmen.
"1 like pets anyway," oplnea Mr. Pegg,
"and eventually I will have- a collection
here that ought to go In the public mu
seum, f it were not against public policy
to destroy faith In human nature."

May Enter Plea
of Killing Wife
Proposition of Pleading- Guilty De
pends on Prisoner Being Let
( Off on Life Term.
Prank L. Henry, held for the murder of
his wife, Maud Henry, early last July, may
enter a pha of guilty of murder In Ihe
first degree. It Is understood that Henry
wishes to do so and the county attorney Is
considering whether he will accept this,
the stipulation being that Henry shall get
no worse than a lire sentence.
Prank Henry shot his wife at tbelr home,
603 La ven worth street, early In the even
ing of July E, and he was seen to run
away, revolver In hand. He escaped cap
ture for several days, but was finally
caught by deputies from the sheriff's office
at ihe home of a woman near Florence.
The sheriff had been given a tip by tht
woman and the deputies were waiting
when Henry came up.

Dirt and Cold at
Court House Are

Uncleanliness of Building; is Heaped
on Lack of Heat, Which In
terferes with Business.
Although the mercury has risen out of
door, the Douglas county court house has
not yet become any fiery furnace and the
buslnrss of the county is In part at a
stands' 111 and In part performed with great
dlf Iculty.
The v nlremen were excused until Mon
day and no Jury tilals are going on. The
judges on the equity nlde who have their
courts In the Bee building are of course
working regularly.
The offices In the court house have had
to be kept open, but the officials are work
ing at a disadvantage and with much dls
comfort. The girl employes In the office
of the clerk of district court have reported
each morning and been sent home while
the men sit around swaddled like Arctic
explorers.
The rays of the Bun burned brightly Fri
day, but found it difficult to effect an en
trance through the far from clean win-1
dows of the building and the heat which
would hava been gained from this sourpe
was thus lost.
The windows of most of the offices of
the court house are in fact In a scandalous
condition, but not particularly different
from other conditions which an efficient
Janl.or service would obviate. The dust
of all the ages lurks in every corner of the
gloomy corridors, though in the offices
there is left less dli t because the officials
would not stand for it In their personal
