Nebraska
(From a fitnff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN. N-b.. Sept. 8 (Special. )-Pn-ator
Burektt and C. H. Aldrlch. candidate
for governor on the republican ticket, spoke
at the auditorium at the state (air this
afternoon, the occasion belnR republican
day. Chairman Husenetter of the repub
llran atate commute, presided. While the
crowd which henrd the democratic candi
date yesterday waa much larger, the en
thualaam of the crowd which today listened
to the republican candldatea waa much
more intenae.
Senator Aldrlch defended the plank In the
republican platform endorsing county op
tlon; held up the legislation of the lff
legislature as a sample of the way the re
publican party keeps Its pledges and argued
with hla crowd that to elect Mayor Dahl
man governor would be to take Nebraska
back to the frontier days. He told of the
food work of the atate railway commission
and of the benefits that had been received
by the people who had appealed to this
commission for relief from the wronm of
the railroads. He digressed considerably
rfom his set speech and once during his
remarks, Breaking of iJahlman'a announce
ment that he would veto a county option
bill, paraphrasing Shakespeare, he suld:
"On what has thla man fed that he hath
become greater than all the people?"
"On breweries," yelled someone In the
crowd.
Yea," replied Senator Aldrlch, "Senilis,
Pabat and those other good patriotic Amer
ican names."
Threat Against Inlverslty.
On another occasion Aldrlch accused Dahl
man of having threatened the state uni
versity unless the professors kept out vf
politics.
"Keep the professors out of politics and
let the brewers run the state. I say the
professors should lose their Jobs unless
they do fight. They should fight and keep
on fighting."
Senator Aldrlch insisted that county op
tion would affect no county utiles a ma
jority of the voters In that county desired
to vota It dry. If a majority ot the county
favored aaloons, then the Slocumb law ap
plied. A great portion of his speech waa
devoted to an endorsement of county option
and an argument In Us favor, together with
a review of republican rule In the state.
Senator Burkett talked on national Issues,
holding uf the record of the republican
party of the peat as a guaranty of what it
would do In the future.
Fair Htlll Draws Crowds.
Another Immense crowd visited the fair
today and saw the races. Some complaint
waa made because the Burlington railroad
refused to sell single fare tickets to the
grounds, but Insisted that the purchaser
should buy a round-trip. This forced the
purchaser to return by train or lose his
nickel. There was also com;ilamt at the
way the crowds were handled ut the gates
by the Burlington, one tralnload leaving the
cars next to a train load which was pulling
out tor the grounds.. However, no one was
Injured.
President 6bar.p of th traotton. company
helped his ' men at the grounds yesterday
and did his part toward packing the cars
full and seeing to it that the signal to
start was not given until every Inch of
the running board was crowded and the
space between the seats was Jammed.
Douglas County Again Leads.
This was the day whet many awards
were made at the fair. Douglas county

How Filipino May Vote
A native of the Philippine Islands may
become avoter in the state of Nebraska
by declaring his Intention to become a
cltlien of the United States and in due
course ot time may become a full-fledged
citlsen without renouncing allegiance to
any prince, potentate or power. This Is the
dictum of the federal bureau of naturallza
1 tlon aa expressed ' by Theodore F.
Schmucker, chief of the Denver division.
At the late primary a Filipino attempted
to vote In thla city and was denied that
light,' though he ad been allowed to ex
ercise the franchise in an adjoining county.
He at once applied to Theodore H. Berg,
deputy clerk of the district court, who has
charge ot naturalisation matters In this
county. The man stated that he had sup
posed himself a citizen and that it would
, not be necessary for htm to take out na
turalisation papers. He was willing, how
ever, to pursue the lutter course If re-i
quired.
Mr. Berg waa not clear on the matter
$ i and wrote the department for Information.
If It was, necessary for the man to tuke
out papers, he wanted to know from whom
lie was to renounce allegiance, lie has
Just received an answer from Mr.
Schmucker In which the latter says:
"I have never had a Filipino In this dis
trict under consideration. iSert.on 30 of the
naturalisation act seems to cover his case.
He should make a declaration on the regg
ular form, but Is not required to renounce
allegiance to anybody. That portion of tne
declaration can be left blank or reference
made therein to section 30, act ot June
la. X906."
The section referred to reads as follows:
All applicable provisions of the naturali
sation laws of the l ulled States shall
apply to and be held to authorise the ad
mission to cltiseiiHlilp of all persons not
clilxens who own permanent allegiance to
the I'nited States, and who may become
lesuieniB or any state or organ. it'd terri
tory of the I'nited Mates, wltn the follow
ing modifications: The applicant shall not
be required to renounce allegiance to any
foreign covei e;gnty ; he mail make his
declaration of Intention to become a
c.usen of the I'tiUnl Statea at least two
years prior to his admission: and residence
w.thln the Jurisdiction of the l nited S.ates,
oalng such permanent allegiance shall he
egaided as residence within the I'n.ted
totatcs within the memiing ot the five year
residence clause vf the existing law.

have to r upon the bills, but Inasmuch
as he received his place by appointment
and slmplly owns stock In the lumber com
pany, he doubts the legality of the ruling
by the city attorney, but concluded that he
could get alone- better by devoting all of
his time to his own business than serving
on the park board and being deprived of
the right to sell material to persons who
did work for the city.
Hee Ahead f Travelers.
O. M. Rtonebraker and Mrs. Stonebraker
have Just returned from a tour of Europe,
having spent several week across the ocean.
The only Nebraska news we received dur
ing the trip," said Mr. Stonebraker, "was
through The Bee. I got copies of It In
the reading roms at Edinburgh, Parts, Lon
don and Berlin. When I saw The Bee at
Berlin It was only nine days old. It cer
tainly looked good to me. I saw no other
American papers except fro mNew York,
but they had no Nebraska news."
Krho of Prise Fight.
Fred Ludwlg was reminded of a visit he
made to Beno. Nev., July 4. when ha re
ceived yesterday a nlco purse, which he left
In the fight city, it having been abstracted
from his pocket by some needy person.
Every card and piece of paper In the purse
when It was taken were returned with it
and everything was In first class condition.
In the purse Ludwig had his Shrine card
and it was through the Shrine that he got
It back. The sender said he had found It
In a patch ot weeds where It had been
thrown evidently by the person who otole it.
No, there was no money In the purse
when It was taken. ."I had Just a short
time before taken my money out of the
purse and pinned It in my clothing. I had
the purse in my hip pocket and had on an
e vercoat buttoned up close. I realized when
the purse was taken, for I felt some one
raise my overcoat and go after the hip
pocket, but In the crowd I was unable to
protect myself or do anything. I could not
even raise my hands. The pickpockets
worked everywhere in gangs and when
they crowded around a person that was the
end of it."
It Is said that every person from Lincoln,
or at least five of them had their pockets
picked. One party paid his hotel bill and
had $87 In gold left in change. He kept this
money In his hand and his hand In his
pocket. That is, he kept the money about
fifteen minutes. His hand was yanked from
his pocket and the money came with it.
The money was gone before the victim
could even give a warwhoop. One Lincoln
man had his pockets picked twice, though
he lost no money, having taken his money
out o fhls purse previous to the raid.
More Par for Custer Officials.
BROKEN BOW, Neb., Sept. 8.-(Special.)
Most of the court house officials are look
ing happy over the county census results.
As Custer county has Increased In popula
tion to over 26,600, so have a number of offi
cial salaries Increased accordingly. In the
county clerks office the increase la 500,
making a yearly salary of $2,500. The county
treasurer gets the same raise In his de
partment, while In the county court the
Judge draws 2,000 to a previous $1,600. That
is, he does if the difference can be col
lected. He Is also allowed a deputy out of
the general fund. The $1,600 salary of the
district court clerk Is augmented by $1,400.
making a total of $3,000, and he Is allowed
to draw from the general fund to make up
a deficiency. The register of deeds gets
$2,000, against a previous $1,600. while the
shertrr, whose salary has been $1,750, re
ceives an additional $250, bringing It up to
$2,000.
i
LINE OF CRIPPtN DEFENSE
Indication that Identification of Body
Will Be Attacked.
MRS. HARRISON ON THE STAND
Friend of Bell Elmore gays Hair
and Bit of Clothlag Probably
Belonged to the Alleged
Victim.
LONDON, Sept 8. At the resumption to
day of the trial of Dr. Hawley H. Crlppen
and Ethel Clara Leneve for the murder of
the former's wife. Publlo Prosecutor
Humphreys Introduced evidence to establish
t! claim of the crown that the parts ot the
mutilated body found In the Crlppen home,
once formed a "part ot the person of Belle
Elmore, the missing wife, and to strengthen
what has been popularly regarded aa the
missing link In the chain of circumstantial
evidence against the accused.
The first wltnets called waa Mrs. Adeline
Harrison, whose acquaintance with Belle
Elmore had extended over a period of
twelve years, Mrs. Harrison was asked to
examine strands of hair tound when the
dismembered body was uncovered, and hav
ing dona so, she swore that she recognised
the exhibit as similar to that worn by
Belle Elmore.
A torn bit of feminine underwear also
discovered by tbe searchers In the cellar
waa next Introduced and the witness de
clared that she had seen Belle Elmore
clothed In undergarments of a like texture.
Testimony had been offered before showing
that the lower part of the body bore a scar,
the result of an operation. Mrs. Harrison
testified that she had seen a slmjlar scar
on the body of her friend.
The accused were seated In the dock
within whispering distance and the doctor
was given an opportunity to speak to the
girl. Miss Leneve presented a woe-begone
aprfearanc and did not seem anxious to
converse. Crlppen, to whom his spectacles
had been returned for the first time since
his arrest, appeared as the Crlppen of early
photographs. He spoke to the girl anx
iously and she replied In monosyllables.
In his cross-examination of Mrs. Harrison
Arthur Newton, representing -Crlppen, de
tracted somewhat from the strength of the
evidence and Incidentally Indicated what la
believed to be the line of defense.
lu reply to Newton's question, the witness
said to the suggestion that the hair, the
pcrtlon of a woman's vest and the curling
iron found In the Crlppen cellar were not
only similar to those worn or used by the
missing woman, but also "resembled thou
sands of others."
When Mrs. Harrison left the stand tbe
prosecution called the chemist who claims
that he sold hyoscin, a deadly poison, to
Crlppen. The witness testified that the
doctor purchased five grains of the drug
on January 19, explaining that he required
the poison for use in homeopathic prac
tice. As is required of purchasers of poi
sons, be signed the registry book of the
store, making this Inscription: "Munyon's,
per H. H. Crlppen."
Inspector Dew, who arrested the tugl
tives and brought them back from Quebec,
re-entered the witness box today and read
a lengthy statement signed by Crlppen
when the police first asked him to make
aa explanation of his disappearance from
London after suspicion had been directed
against him. The gist of the statement
had already been covered by Prosecutor
iiumpnreys in his opening address.
Inspector Dew also testified regarding

the search of Crlppen s house aivd told ot

my wife baa. gone to Chicago to Join Bruce

CLOSED OHJX
THE REASON
onmTielierl to close these branch stores and turn over the territory covered by
these stores to our Wholesale Department, because we have 171 small' dealers In
Iowa, Nebraska, South Dakota and Colorado, who buy all their pianos and organs from
us. It would not be fair to them to go into their territory and sell pianos, so the
president of our company, Mr. Wm. H. Schmoller, who is in Europe now, cabled us to
close the Plattsmouth branch, Dow City branch and Denisori branch, move every piano
in these branch stores to Omaha and then sell them regardless of cost.
A REAL OPPORTUNITY
We are not offering a lot of ancient, worn out pianos as an inducement of bait to get
you to our store. The pianos incuded in this sale are all fine, high-grade instruments
of quality and we must sell every one of them because we must have room. Careful,
discriminating buyers will soon pick oat the best, although every one is a most dosira
ble piano, and a real bargain, because a $1,000,000 firm, established 51 years, guaran
tees to stand back of these pianos and overy piano they sell.
