Lincoln Bureau Bee P. A- Barrows, Correspondent MEET DECEMBER 2 TO FRAME NEW CONSTITUTION Several Candidates Mentioned for President and Secre tary of Constitutional Convention. Lincoln, Nov. 16. (Special.) Two weeks from the coming Tues day the' constitutional convention for which delegates were elected re cently, will gather in Lincoln for the purpose of agreeing upon a new constitution for the state, which will he submitted to the voters at the next regular election. ' . , The most interest just now ap pears to be directed" toward the or-1 ganization of the convention. Al ready several candidates have an nounced tneir wiiiingness to serve in the capacity of president of the con vention. Among them are John Heasty of Fairbury, member of the state senate in 1913r W. A. Sellek Tf Lincoln, a member of the 1911 senate; C. C. Flansburg of Lincoln, K. M. Pollard of Nehawka, former congressman from this district and a member of the house in 3897 and 1891; A. J. Weaver of Falls ,City, and Charles L. Saunders nf Omaha. The latter lias served in the senate in the years 1903, 1905, 1907. 1913, 1917 and 1919. He was president protein of the senate in 1907 and acted as governor during his term while both Governor Sheldon and Lieutenant Governor Hopewell were out of the state at the same time. For secretary of the convention there are two candidates so far, Clyde Barnard of Table Rock, who was -several sessions -chief clerk of the house and secretary of the sen ate three sessions, and Will Hitch cock, chief clerk of the house at the last session. Because of his experi ence and acquaintance with the work, most of the men who have served with him in legislative ses sions, appear to favor Barnard. However, Hitchcock is said to have the backing of some e known men. There may be other candidates for the presidency loom ..up before Ihe session convenes, as there are some pretty strong men composing the membership of the convention. So far most of-the delegates who have come to Lincoln appear to think that the session ought not to last long. They think that -the old constitution is a pretty good docu ment and that if it is dressed up to meet the present conditions that it will be about all that ought to be done. There appears to be a strong prejudice against in any way mak- . i i . r ' . ing tne constitution a legislative document and that the function! of legislation should be left to future legislatures. $11,000 Paid for Hereford Bull at Scottsbluff Sale Scottshluff, Neb., Nov. 16.

A confer ence tomorrow between President Wilson and Senator Hitchcock, ad minstiation leader in the senate con test over the peace treaty, was ex pected tonight to determine largely the fate of the treaty and plans for adjournment of the special session of congress. Senator Hitchcock will see the president before the senate recon venes to take up the final reserva tions to the treaty and expects to obtain from him a final word on the form of reservation he will accept. Definite outcome of the treaty controversy thjs week either by a deadlock or reserved ratification and adjournment of the special ses sion of congress tonight seemed as sured. With the cloture rule in ef fect, the senate tomorrow will take up the two remaining committee reservations, and after disposal of dozens of individual reservations, reach the last stage ot ratification reservations. With final action on the treaty, adjournment sine die of the session, which began May 19, is planned be fore the new arid long session be gins two weeks from tomorrow. House Action Unknown. . What the house will do while the senate is in the last stage of the treaty fight had not been deter mined today. N The railroad bill will be taken up again tomorrow and probably passed by tomorrow night or Tuesday. Not rmich will be done after that. Senator ; Hitchcock said tonight that he would submit the majority reservations as adopted and those sti.M before the senate, together with the minority substitutes, to Presi dent Wilson "for his final judg ment.".,.. ; Leaders of both parties, predicted that the president would not accept the reservation program adopted by the senate. The majority managers said they were proceeding with plans to override Vice President , Mar shall's proposed ruling that the treaty cculd not live or die by a vote on "the resolution containing reserva tions adopted by the majority. The program of the majority contem plates that final rejection of the Lodge resolution, upon reconsidera tion with a second vote, shall- be ruled as decisive ratification or de feat. ' First Reservation Up. The first reservation to come up tomorrow is designed to qualify the treaty provisions by which Ger many renounces in favor of the big five powers her title to her overseas possessions, of which xfinal disposi tion is to be made afterward,' under the mandatory system. The reserva tion declares the United States de clines to accept as trustee or in its own right, any responsibility for such territofy. For this reservation the republican leaders declare they are assured of a majority, but they are not so cer tain about the other and final mea sure cn the committee program. It is a blanket reservation by which this country would decline to submit to the league's decision any question it considered to involve vital nation al rights and interests. In the statement issued tonight the executive committee of the lea gue to enforce peace, declared that if such a reservation were adopted, It would be "the clear duty of every senator who sincerely believed in a league of nations to vote against ra tification.

Chicago, Nov. 16. Following an intangible clew in the quest for the phantom bridegroom who was to have married Miss Sophie Loder hose of Brooklyn, detectives have come to Chicago. They are looking for a man who calls himself Qr.'A. William Hoffman, jr. The romance which ha involved the names of Miss Loderhose and Dr. Hoffman is one of the most mystifying that detectives have had to work on in many days. It in volves love and wealth and, it was supposed, sudden death. But those working on the case are convinced now that the reported death mes sage was a hoax. Gets Telephone Call Miss Loderhose, who is 24 years old and said to be beautiful, might be able to give more assistance thait she has -except for her collapse to I lowing the disclosure that her mys to oe. ane is under the care ot; a physician in her home in Brooklyn. Dr. Hoffman claimed Pasadena, Cal., as his home, and the, Vincent Astors as relatives.. He said that his father was a practicing physician in Millbrook, N. Y. All arrange mt nts for the wedding had been fin ished and the young doctor was sup posed to bo on his way east for the event. Then came a telephone call to Miss Loderhose, saying he had been killed in an automobile acci dent in French Lick Springs, Ind. Was Telephone Courtship. Announcements of the accident ap peared in' the eastern papers. Then it was learned that there had been no such accident at French Lick Spriwgs ,that there was no Dr. Hoff man, sr., living in Millbrook, and no young one in Pasadena. Although the preparations for the wedding were extsemely elaborate, the courtship was mostly a long dis tance one. Young Dr. Hottman ap peared only three times at the Loderhose home. He was seen only by Miss Loderhose and her sister, Miss Ennle, vho kept house togeth cr. He was dressed each time in the uniform of an officer in the med ical corps of the artny. One time he brought his supposed father along. The young women insist that the bearing of the two was ' in har mony with tbeir contentions. Lasted an Hour. But the telephone calls which Miss Loderhose received were almost countless. Her fiance called some times from Pasadena, she said, and sometimes from Millbrook. Some of the transcontinental conversations lasted an hour, but the young doc tor seemed to care nothing for tele phone tolls. He claimed to be rich. He was to present a new organ to the church where the wedding was to take place, and an organ company had begun work on the plans. . Miss Loderhose was showered with expensive gifts. They came in nearly every mail. She wore a four carat diamond ring. Shortly before the Wedding day, she sent out in vitations and a notice to the news papers. She was the guest of show ers and pre-wedding entertainments. Put on Mourning. Then Icame the announcement of the accident. Another mysterious telephone call, which Miss Loder hose thought was from French Lick and the young man's father told of the sudden death. The girl put on deep mourning and asked the min ister who was to have married her to hold a memorial service. While getting information for that, he dis covered that there was no Dr. Hoff man living' in Millbrook, and the girl's relatives began the effort to solve the unusual love mystery. Miss Loderhose had a photograph of the young doctor by which the detectives hope to trace down the elusive lover. She described him as "very v tall; hands'ome, medium complexioned and slender." Three Bandits Stage Holdup, But They Get Nothing in Attempt Three armed hold up men shot at a pedestrian at 3:00 Sunday morning at Eighteenth and Leavenworth streets when he ran after they had ordered him to throw up his hands. He reported the matter to the police but they weren't interested enough to take the victim's name. One offi cer believed the man said he lived at 809 South Nineteenth street. The pedestrian was 'passing the George Cott Chemical works at Eighteenth and Leavenworth streets when the three men leaped out of the darkness and "covered" him with revolvers. The victim said he started to run toward town and one of the bandits began "clocking" his Revolver and running after him. When the chase had progressed half a block toward Sixteenth street a shot was fired. Three armed white men held up three pedestrians near South High school at 9:30 Saturday night but received no valuables for their ef forts. John B. "Alter, Fifty-second and S streets, Arthur Hopkins, 4407 South Nineteenth street and George Pott, 4404 South Twenty-first street, were the three victims. The bandits rummaged through the pockets of their victims but failed to find any money or other valuables. The police believe it was the samel trio that held up William Bennett, 4722 South Twenty-first street at midnight at Twenty-fourth and I streets and robbed him of $2.

It doesn't matter especially that the material used for the foundation of the evening s entertainment is more or less familiar, through continuous employment. It is the superstruc ture in which most interest is ftlt the 'trimmings, decorations and the like. And there are light and grace ful, rococo, almost bizarre at times, but always pleasing. And let us bless Jerome. Kern for a score con taining nothing but music no jazz, no tinkles, no "tinpanning, just melody, moving always with the spirit of the song or dance, increas ing enormously the enjoyment of the evening spent with the com poser. Messrs. Bolton, and Wode house have embellished the fabric o' a somewhat commonplace book with such wit as not frequently exudes from even the smartest of musical comedies. In fact, "Oh, -Lady, Lady!"deserves all that was said in praise before its arrival. Of the company qtiite as much may be set down in commendation In Betty Blye.we have a new type of soubrette.

Description may dull anticipation, so toddle along to the Boyd this week and enjoy the best thing Comstock cllioU have so far sent us, lhere are several real hits in tins week's bill at the Orpheum, and al together it is an exceptionally well- balanced and meritorious program of vaudeville. Carlton, Sobel and Chester are known as the "Ja-Da Trio," -and it may be said that by any other name they would be just as pleasing. They, were shipmates in Uncle Sam's navy during the war and they are now on the high seas of popularity, as was evidenced yesterday when the open- ng audiences clamored tor more ot theit clever line ot entertainment. Mr. Carlton's own song, "Ja-da," was one of thier hits. Carl Jorn, distinguished tenor, sang several grand opera selections and, then "I Hear You Calling Me," and "I'm. Longing for Ybu," in re sponse to enthusiasthic. encores. It is rare .that vaudeville audiences are priviliged to hear such a wonderful voice as that of Mr. Jorn. Will J. Ward and his five sympho ny girls was another distinct hit of the program. Vera Correll, Vera La Rue,' Marie Fay and the Monarity sisters are the names of fivevcharm ing young women who assist Mr. Ward with their singing, dancing, playing and comedy. The playing of five pianos in unison made every body sit up. The closing number, an Irish song and dance, was well re ceived. George Kelly, late star of "Find ers Keepers," won favor with his one-act satire, - "The Flattering Word," in which Jne is aided by a company of capable entertainers. The dialogue is breezy and witty. John Regay and the Lorraine sis tersjiave a pleasing repertoire of dance numbers. Ray Snow is worth while as a mbnoJogist.-'The Belgium trio, two men, and a woman, have a startling acrobatic act in which the woman displays unusual physical development. Topics of the Day and Kinograms are the usual screen of ferings which go to make this week's bill one of the best of the season. 4 Cantor's minstrels, featuring Ma rion Gibney and a sextette of "pur ple lady pirates," heads the --bill at the Empress for the first half of the week. The offering more than made good at the opening on Sunday, the performance on a variety of wind and string instruments, together with the singing and dancing of tne fnrls. showing their remarkaoie musical versatility in a most impres sive way. It is a fast and snappy act and most enjoyable. Honor Thv Children," one of Clara Lipp- a 1 , " jC mans pleasant comedies, is enet- tiively given.

NOT U. S. CITIZEN Government Soon to Attempt to Send Her Back to Russia Where She Was Born. i...- Washington, Nov. 16. Replying to a senate inquiry as to what had been done toward deporting Emma Goldman and Alexander -Berkman, Attorney General Palmer declared tonight that the woman's claim to Amriraii citiensfiin uni "fallari. Nous," and-Ariat Berkman, by his own admission, was an anarchist. The Goldman case' is under con sideration by immigration authori ties at New York and the attorney general's statement was taken to mean that the government soon would attempt to send her back to Russia, where she was horn. Age Barred Naturalization. Discussing Goldman's claim to citizenship, Mr. Palmer said she was 24 years old when her father was naturalized and that her age barred her from inheriting naturalization rights from him. The fact that her husband obtained his citizenship through fraud Mr. Palmer added, cancelled any claim she might have established through that source. The ramifications to which the plots and plans of the group of an archists, headed by Emma Goldman, have extended Vere reviewed by the attorney general. Declaring that both Matthew Schmidt and David Caplan, who are serving prison sentences for complicity in the destruction of the Los Angeles Times building, were members of the Goldman clan, he showed also that she advocated violence and had incited riots as early as 1893, when she was sen tenced to serve one year on Black well's Island after indictment on these charges. Assassin Influenced. Mr. Palmer included in the states ment a transcript of the confession of Czalgosz, who shot President Mc Kinley, in which he told of the influ ence Emma Goldman's teachings had exercised on his life. Further investigation by government agents proved that he had not only heard her speak, but frequently had con sulted with her as to methods to be employed in effecting the "destruc tion of the government. Ihe connection of both Berkman and Emma Goldman with the bol shevik movement also was empha sized by Mr. Palmer. The activities of the Union of Russian Workers, said to be one of the most danger ous organizations in America and against which the government has directed a 'vigorous campaign, has been trace'd directly to the Goldman Berkman propaganda headquarters', he said. x Flowers of Zion Celebrate Anniversary of Founding The Flowers of Zion Sunday eve ning celebrated the third anniver sary of their founding by giving an entertainment before an audience of 400 people.

' I The meager costumes worn by some young women in the parade prompted Rector Healds action.

That menace is the lowering of the high ideals and moral standards of womanhood manifested by the tendency toward extremes in dress, which are both immodest a(Td immoral." Among the patrons are several of ficials of Mr. Heald's church, anoth er clergymen and his wife, and some of the best known men and women of the conrmunityj, Sleeveless, low ( cut costumes,'' with skirts reaching only to flje knees, worn by young women in "Vanity Fair,"' and dimp'ed knees and about six inches of hire limbs displayed above, them by sixteen young women participating, in r Scottish drill caused the trouble.
