THE BEE: OMAHA, TUESDAY. SEPTEMBER 12, 1916. Nebraska CAPITOL WALLS SHOWTOKEMG Further Evidence of Settling of . the East Wing Causes Much Apprehension. SOME FEAB FOB LIVES (Prom a Staff Correspondent) Lincoln, Sept 11. (Special.) Al though an examination by State En gineer Johnson and his assistant, Mr. Stcckleburg, this morning gave no indication that the east wing of the state house had settled any since the last measurements were made month ago, the fact remains that since Saturday some sort of a change of the walls around the third story has resulted, for since Saturday the strain on one of the windows in the office of the adjutant general was so great that the heavy glass cracked at the top. t . Head Janitor Burge examined the walls on the outside closely this morning and gave as his opinion that the cracks between the stone slabs around the windows were wider than thev were a month ago. ' Some employes who ire working in trie wing expressed tne opinion that they would throw up their post tions rather than take chances. How ever, the announcement of the engi neer that there is no perceptible change in the settling of the wing has allayed their fears somewhat. This again brines ud the Question of accommodations for the lower branch of the legislature if the wing again shows signs of weakening. Architects who have looked at the buildipg say that the walls cannot tall out because of the rods which are strung across, but they admit that they might spread sufficiently to let the floors down, which, as far as the state house workers are con cerned, would be just as dangerous as it tne. wails tell. Game Warden Nabs Fish Law Violators (Prom a Staff Correspondent) ' Lincoln, Sept. 11. (Special.) A message was received by State Game warden Ku ten Deck this morning irom special Liepnty ti. ijpiece ot Kails City that he had been successful in arresting several men and they had been found guilty and fined $10 eacn witn costs tor breaking the fish ine laws of the state.

Northwest Potato . .Crop to Be Heavy Hemingford, Neb., Sept. 11. (Spe cial.) The . potato crop here will, probably be larger than last year's bumper crop, owing to abundant rains (luring August. Winter wheat was excellent, but the spring, wheat was a light yield and pooj-quality. Black rust injured the spring wheat in the Pine Ridge section north of here, where the best wheat in northwestern Nebraska is ordinarily grown. 'There is an abundance of feed for live stock for the coming winter and three times the ordinary acreage of winter wricat is Demg planted Democratic Headquarters Locked Up by Chief (From a 8talf Correspondent) Lincoln, Sept. 11 (Special.) State Chairman Louie Langhorst of the democratic state committee locked un headquarters this morning and went home. Whether this is due to the unsuccessful condition of the cam paign and.he thinks best to quit while the quitting is good or whether in a state of agitation over the way things look he forgot that the quarters might be needed before he got back, the chairman only knows, and he is not here to explain. Secretary Sprague explains the mat ter by simply saying that Langhorst locked up and forirot to uive him Ihe key, which may be true, as the secre- . lary was running wild trying to find a key to open the room. Samples of Oil Found On Sioux County Land Hemingford, Neb- Sect. 11. fSne. cial.) Samples of oil scum from cer tain springs in Sioux county sent to the state chemist at 'Lincoln have been pronounced mineral oil.

The land is very similar 10 ine Wyoming district , a little farther west, where oil is abundant. White Sox Club Signs Pitcher Marty Lamers Appleton, Wis., Sept. 11.

BOX CAR VICTIM DIES IHHOSPITAL Jas. Kelly, Found Here Locked N In Transitory Oar, Suc cumbs to Injuries. WAS ROBBED AND BEATEN A thug's blackjack ended the life of James Kelly, soldier ot fortune, who died at 8 o'clock Sunday morning in St. Joseph's hospital.' Kelly is the man who was found by railroad switchmen July 22 in a sealed box car, dying. He had been beaten and robbed and thrown into the car, which was then locked and sent td Omaha. Where the car came from was never learned by the au thorities. Kelly did not recover con sciousness sufficiently to tell where he was at the time of the attack, and the nearest information about his case came from a railroad detective who said the car had been sent from Kansas City. The victiirl was taken to the hos pital immediately by Police Surgeon Barney Kulakofsky, but his condition was considered hopeless. A few days after being brought in tuberculosis developed, and this, with his weak ened condition, resulted in death. At the time of finding him, it was said that the car had been standing on a siding in Omaha for two days. A notebook in his pocket bore the name of "James Kelly, Philadelphia, Pa.," and contained indications that he had been in the United States army and navy and had traveled in several foreign countries. His cloth ing and calloused hands indicated that he was a laborer. The body is now at the Htafey undertaking parlors and effort are being made to locate relatives. Twelve Cases Performed , Under Sterilization Law Lincoln, Sept. 11. (Special Tele gram.) According to reports filed with the State Board of Control there have been twelve cases of steriliza tion in the three insane hospitals of the state since the law requiring such operations to be , performed was passed by the last legislature. Both sexes were given the treat ment, but in no case was the opera tion performed where either the pa tient or the relatives objected. When the bill was passed it became a law without the signature of the governor. ' . GRIP OF NEBRASKA BINDS ALL HEARTS "It's God's Country," Declare Homecomers After Visits to Alien Lands. THEY HAVE TO COME BACK By A. R. GROH. Vacation time is about past now, and back to Nebraska and to Omaha have come the thousands. A striking feature of their return is the ardent expressions of love for the state and the city that they insist on expressing. "It' C.nrl'a country." "Oh, but it does look good to me!" "1 felt happier the minute I'd crossed the state line, nomewara hound." these are some of the compliments passed to the blushing Miss Me hraska.
