George W. Adams of Walnut, president
of the Iowa & Omaha Short line, while In
Council Bluffs yesterday, announced that
he woujd be a candidate before the repub
lican primary In June for the nomination
for representative from Pottawattamie
county In the state legislature. 1
Mr. Adams Is an optimist of the first
water, and despite the fact that he failed
on former occasions to receive the repub
lican nomination for sheriff, which office
he sought several times, feels sure of the
nomination for representative and also
election. "I have had the matter under
consideration for some time," said Mr.
Adams, "and It Is on the advice of some
of the best men In tire county that I have
determined to be a candidate at the June
primary for the nomination for representa
tive from this county. My connection with
the Iowa & Omaha Short line has brought
me In touch with the business men and
farmers and has Identified ma with their In
terests. I believe they will give me their sup
port, and. In fact, many of them have al
ready promised me they will. I feel con
fident that my candidacy will be accept
able to the republicans throughout Potta
wattamie county and that I will be nomi
nated and elected, '
"In the short line now In course of con
struction we have an enterprise which must
be protected, and I am frank to say that
one object In my being a candidate is to
be, In the event of my election. In a posi
tion to protect my associates In this pro
ject and the Pottawattamie county and
Iowa men who have Invested their money
In It. Of course, I have a. deep personal
Interest In the enterprise, but outside of
that I feel that It Is a matter of great
moment to Pottawattamie county that this
should be built I believe that as repre
sentative from Pottawattamie county I
would be In a position to protect the project
from hostile Influences and assist In carry
ing It through to a successful completion."
Mr. Adams stated that he expected to
make the formal announcement of his can
didacy through the papers of the county
within a few days.
Talking about the Iowa A Omaha Short
line, President Adams said that at a meet
lng of the board of directors, held a few
days ago at Treynor, It was decided to
extend the line from Treynor to the vlcln
Ity of Oakland. The directors of the road
will hold a conference next week with the
business men of Oakland to discuss the
proposed extension.
The extension of the short line :o Oak
land would give a road between Council
Bluffs and that town twenty-eight miles
long, as against fifty-two miles, the pres
ent distance between the two places by
the Rock Island railroad.

. After .Trial.
The suit which was brought by Emll
Schuri against his brother, W. H. Schurz,

aroused considerable bad feeling between
the Jlfferent members of the family. Emll
and W. H. Schuri are attorneys and oc

Colonel John Undt, who Is, also an at

the case yesterday W. H. Schurz md his
brother-in-law, Henry Mollrlng, went to
Colonel Llndt's office to got some papers.
Colonel Undt ordered W. II. Schurx to
remove his desk from the olfloe .without
ny delay. Schurz said he would movo It
When he got ready. Then the doughty
colonel, It Is said, declared' he would throw
the desk nut Into the street. W. H. Schuri
objected to any sucft proceedings ani th?re

Llndt was supported by Emll Schurz, while
W. H. Schur had the assistance of his
brother-Ia'-law. ; Ole Marsh, one of the de
fendants in the Mabray case, who Is a
dltnt of Colonel Llndt, happened to be
in the office and h? essayed the role of
peacemaker and succeeded In separating
the combatants after the 'second or third
round. Colonel Undt lost a choice Havana
cigar during the fray, but beyond a few
scratches and bruises none of the com
batants Buffered any serious damage.

Men of Dartmouth the Omaha graduates
and former students of the famed New
Hampshire college were given the oppor
tunity of greeting the new head of the
Institution, President Krnest Fox Nichols,
last night at the Omaha club, where the
annual banquet of the local alumni was
held. ,
President Nichols Is on a tour of the
western country, coming to Omaha from
Minneapolis, where he was the gtict Tues
day night of tho Twin City Alumni as
sociation. Thursday ho will spend at Lin
coln and will then continue his trip west

was tastily decorated In welcome to tho
college head. Dartmouth green prevailed
on the tables. Throughout the evening
during the program of toasts the club
rooms rang with Indian "Wah Hoo Wah"

In connection with tho Independence of

that has boeomti a campus tradition. Baek
In the olden days It was once decided to
give the students the right to vote at town
elections.
The students voted once . When the bal
lots were counted it was found that a prop
osition had gone through to build a town
hall In the little college town of Hanover
to be five miles long and ten feet wide.
The town, hall was not built and further
more the right of suffrage was denied the
men.
W. M. Davidson, superintendent of
schools, and Kills V. Graff, principal of
the Omaha High school, had seats at the
banquet table.
WedneHday afternoon President Nichols
addressed the senior clais at the high
school.

Vf. Charles W. Pollard, '95, was toast
master. H. W. Plerpont, '05, who was the
Omaha delegate to the Inaugural of Presi
dent Nichols, gave the Introductory address
and R. L. Cams, '08, gave the add reps of
welcome.
President Nichols ppoke along two lines
of thought, "The Position of the College
Today" and of the "Palaeopltus." the self-
governing student body at Dartmouth. He
said the modern college had been obliged
to make a departure from the old system
ln order that "Its students may go better
prepared Into the professional or technical
school of their choice."
"Thus," he continued, "the college that
a generation ago had quite lost touch with
the world's progress, Its activity and
thought, now stands ln the most reopontilve
relation to modern life."
President Nichols divided homes from
which students come Into two classes, those
whose heads are college men and the re'
verse.
Social Side of College Life.
"The latter," he said, "are likely to over
estimate the social side of college life by
not understanding what the other side
means. There must be Intellectual awaken
ing ln the student some time during his
college course, giving him a true sense of
the value of scholarship, or else his case
ought to be Investigated. The alumni can
se that freshmen go to collego with a
proper sense of Intellectual effort.
"Colleges are striving now, more than
ever before, to train young men for the
highest citizenship and the most effective
service in the world."
The subject of the "Palaeopltus" is an
Interesting one. At Dartmouth the students
have sought Independence and they have
won It and have shown that they are de
serving. The "Palaeopltus" Is an Organiza
tion of seniors, consisting of eleven mem
bers, who have general charge of the af
fairs of the "Undergraduates. The rule of

Only One of the Thirty-One Persons:

and He May Die.
i
MARSHFIEI.D, Ore., Jan. IS. The South
ern Pacific Railroad company's steamer
Ciarina. which left this port for San Fran
cisco this afternoon lies a total wreck on
the North Spit of the Coos Day bar and
thirty lives are believed to have been lost,
K. II. Kentsell, first assistant engineer
of the Csarlna. was washed ashore tonight.
He was with difficulty restored to con
sciousness, but he la too weak to apeak
and is believed to bo internally Injured. A
second body was seen In the water but waa
carried out again before a patrolman
could reach It.
The steamer left port this morning In
a gale. Tremendous seas were breaking
over the bar as the Cz.irlna attempted to
pass Into the ocean. Those on the shore
who had gathered to watch the departure
of the boat were suddenly startled to see
the Csarlna sweeping toward the North
Spit. Its engines apparently had been
disabled. The heavy sens seemed almost
to envelop the, steamer and lt drlfud
rapidly on to the spit at a point about a
mile above the Jetty.
The disabled vessel pounded heavily,
while great waves swept over It. The crew
crowded Into the rigging and could be seen
making frantic gestures for help, while
hundreds on shore, among them C. J.
Minis, manager of the steamship company,
whose son Is on board the vessel, wore
compelled to stand Idly by and see man
after man washed overboard. So rough
was the sea that all efforts of the life iv
lng crew to launch a boat were ln vain,
while attempts to shoot a life, line across
the vessel also failed. The distance wa4
too great.
The Csarlna carried a crew of nine offi
cers and twenty-one men. Harold Mtllls,
20 years old, son of J. C. Mlllls, general
manager of the steamship company operat
ing the Csarlna, was the only passongrr.
He waa enroute to the University of Cali
fornia after spending a short vacation with,
his parents here.
