Ed far Howard and hla supporters have

Whea .the governor geta back to Lincoln,
Wednesday o Thursday of this week,
you will heat i from many an Influential
member of hla party that an extra aesnlon
would be a blunder. It will be pointed out
that, even If he gets a petition signed by a
majority of the house and senate members,
he would -stlrl be a long way from having
any asauranca of the parage of an Initia
tive, and .referendum law. Many men who
signed the petition, when ' presented, have
since been made to reallve what the move
ment means,' and It Is regarded by "the
Dahlman men as a certainty that excuses
would be found for quarreling with any
bill that - Arthur ' Mullen and "Tommy"
Allen might draw up,
"Allen nd Mullen are proceeding on the
theory thai -certain republicans would support-
suth ' a measure," said a high coun
selor of the mayor." "We think they would
be disappointed In that expectation, ' as
they would not help to pull Bhallenberger's

Mayor Dentinal! says that he will pro
ceed to open his headquarters In Omaha
within a 'week. ; The first work of the
mayor's friends will be to get In touch with
leaders known to be opposed to an extra
session, ana with the backing of the Dahl
man element' withdraw all along the line.
It Is expected 1 fhallenberger . will see a
light It Is pointed out that every utterance
he haa made concerning the proposed meet
ing of the legislature has been qualified.
"If the people demand Jt," "if the mem
ber of the legislature want It," such
expressions are about aa far as the gov
ernor haa gone. -
Now comes Colonel Bates of Platts-
mouth with a point blank declaration
against the extra session Idea. Other promi
nent members of .the governor's party are
expected to. publicly announce .themselves
to the same effect. Taylor of Custer, has
already done so, even before Colonel Bates
waa heard from;' and while Taylor Is
not In any too good standing with the party
managers, they recognize his Influence and
that he is a fighter who cannot be Ignored.
A significant declaration may be expected
from Lincoln soon, say the Dahimanttes,
which will end-special session' talk.
"IT ISS A LIE," DECLARES
MAN ACCUSED OF NEGLECT
Hotly Joseph' Oberdobler Denies the
C'harve that He Allows Hie .
Family to Suffer. -
."What Is the complaint In this case?"
asked Judge Estelle In Juvenile court.
"His wife la an Invalid, physically and
mentally," said Probation Officer Bern
stein, "and a five weekk'a old baby is be
ing neglected and la In danger of going
blind. Then too" ,
"It Iss a lie," remarked Joseph Ober
dobler, curtly and terse'y. .,
"Be silent until , your time cornea to
speak," admonlahed Mr. Bernstein.
"Why, don't I speak yetT" Inquired t Mr.
Oberdobler, hotJy. "It, Us -a He. -Ain't I
sworn to tell the truth?" -. . i
Not only had he been sworn, but his two-
little daughters had also, apparently,- taken
the oath. These two little girls, age 6 and
A yearn, hd he'd up theh- small right hands
when they aa their elders being sworn
at Our beginning of the bearing. These
two. girls were, by the way, the prettiest
children the Juvenile court haa ever seen.
Otoerdobler pere had dressed them himself
and being ' probably awaM that he had
better make a good Impression had rigged
them out In spick and span attire. Dark
blue hats sat above maanes of golden curls
In which a gleam of v red shot when 'the
sunlight fell on the hair..
Coats of dark blue fell from neck to
shoetopa and ietween coats and hate there
sml'ed two pretty ace In which dark
brown eyes formed an. effective contrast
to golden hair and perfect, blonde complex
'ons. , .
There was a good deal of . testimony,
strenuously denied by Oberdobler, that the
baby In the home Is being neglected. Judge
Estelle heard all the evidence, but did not
dispose of the case.
Oberdobler Is not the usual sort of parent
accused In Juvenile court of neglecting his
children. He is a 'andscape gardener of
the scientific class, and there was testi
mony In the court' room that he Is an ex
pert In hla line.
But of late, as Oberdobler told tha'Quurt,
"There isa not muehr doing In the. winter,'
yet." .

Verdict for
Woman Against
"Doctor" Lund
r "
Judgment of $3,000 Allowed by Jury
for. Charges. Again' a
Chiropodist.
A Jury In district court thinks "Dr."
Julius Lund ought to pay Delia Folsom
13,000. . ...
The case Is a peculiar one, in that
Lund did not appear to'' defend him
self.' About a year ago he . filed
an answer through an attorney, the latter
subsequently notifying the court that he
was withdrawing from the case.
Judge Day sent for Lund when the caae
was called Monday afternoon and - Lund
said, he did not care, what happened.' A
Jury waa' then Impanelled and evidence
taken. Tuesday morning the suit, which
Is for -$10,000, waa sent to the Jury without
argument ...
Miss Folsom testified that she was suf
fering from ivy poisoning and that Lund
asserted himself to be an expert on skin
diseases.
"Accordingly," aald the witness, "he
painted my whole body firet with a tincture
of Iodine and then with saltcyllo acid."
- Miss Folsom soon felt as if some one had
poured gasoline on net- and Ignited it, and
her screams could be hearl for blocks, ac
cording to the Vestlmony of Detective Steve
Mahoney, who came with the ambulance.
The plaintiff alleges permanent damages.
An execution was Immediately levied
upon the furniture In Lund's offioe In the
Karbach block. The stuff seised is not
worth more than 175 or 1100.

ACCIDENT , NEAR B00NE, IOWA
Loose Tender Track on San Francisco
Overland Limited . Jeopardises
Many Lives, bat' No One '
"Was Hart.
On It fast'ru between 'Chicago and
Omaha over the Northwestern Una the San
Franotsco Overland Limited Jumped the
track near Boene, la., early Tuesday morn
ing while pounding, along at a thirty-mile
-per hour clip. .
That the heavy train was not badly
wrecked-wltlv loss of life la due probably to
the ' presence of mind Of Engineer John
Ert, who brought hla train to an abrupt
Stop and prevented the coaches from tele
sooplng or toppling over. As It was all the
passeDgera received a bad Jolting, but none
was Injured.
The accident occurred about 6:30 o'clock
midway between Boone and Carroll. In
some manner the rear truck on the loco
motive tender became loosened and Jumped
the rails, the cars behind sliding over the
truant trucks, . thus derailing the entire
train. The cars bumped over the ties for
some distance, ftut did not topple over.
Engineer Ert . promptly applied the ali
as soon as he felt the pounding of the loco
motive tender., The heavy train waa
brought to such a sudden stop that passen
gers were severely shaken up and many
feared that the flyer had been wrecked.
Passengers in the sleepers hurriedly left
thei- berths In half attire and there was
some excitement. When the slight nature
of the wreck was learned the people re
turned to the coaches, to' await a relief
train. ' ' v-
C, T. Boone, assistant superintendent at
Boone, was notified and a special train was
Immediately made up. -The aubstitute train
reached Omaha at 11:40 o'clock, bearing the
westbound passengers, many of whom live
In Omaha.
A wrecking train was dispatched from
Boone to clear the tracks for traffic. The
Overland Limited was made up of locomo
tive, dynamo baggage car, day coach; chair
car, diner and, three Pullman sleepers, and
was In charge of Conductor Campbell, En
gineer John Ertz and Fireman K. T, Bowman.-

by order of military authority when com
plaint waa made by Captain Feeler's phy
sician to the Department of the Missouri.

and who was stationed at Los Angelea be
fore coming to Omaha, has been In a Vio
lent condition for some days and while In
thla condition has, It is said, attempted to
choke his nurse and to attack other attendants.
The last outbreak of the kind provoked
the complaint to authorities. Removal of
the officer front a local hospital to Fort
Omaha waa not accomplished without con
siderable stress. '
Removal of Captain Feeter from his sta
tion here has been countenanced by mili
tary authorities at Washington, who have
been informed by telegraph of the circum

rarily assigned to command of the recruit
ing office, . I
Captain Feeter enlisted in July, 18.18, In
