JUDGE POST IS
APPOINTED TO
SIXTHmSTRICT
Acting Governor Barrows
, Makes Announcement
T ..' Judge Thomas III
And Resigns.
'Lincoln. Dec. 10. (SoeciaD
fudge A. M. Post of Columbus has
been appointed by Acting Gov. P. A.
Barrows to fill the vacancy caused
by the resignation of Judge George
H. Thomas, district judge of the
Sixth judicial district.
The resignation of Judge Thomas
was prompted by the fact that he
lias been ill for gome time. Last
week Judge F. W. Button, the other
judge, was accidentally shot while
; hunting rabbits in Boone county
with Sheriff Frank Willott of that
county. He is now in an Qmaha
Hospital undergoing treatment in
hopes to save one of his eyes, which
was penetrated by a No. 6 shot.
The resignation of Judge Thomas
goes into effect January 1, or as
soon thereafter as Judge Post can
assume the duties of the judgeship.
In making the appointment the act
ing governor gave out the following
statement:
. "In appointing Judge Post to the
' vaeanty in the Sixth judicial dis
trict I have taken into consideration
the fact that Judge Post stands very
high with the bar of the state and
is in every way qualified for the po
sition. Also that there are two
judges in the Sixth district, both
living at Fremont, in Dodge county,
in the extreme eastern portion of
IftYdistrict, which consists of Boone,
Nance, Merrick, Platte, Colfax and
Dodge. Columbus, in Platte county,
is nearly in the center of the dis
trict, and easily reached from all di
aections. "At the , present time the other
judge, Hon. F. W, Button, is con
fined in an Omaha hospital, suffer
ing join, an accidental gunshot
wound in one eye, which may keep
him from the bench for some time.
Therefore the district is without a
judge. I am making the appoint
ment at this time in order that judge
Post may have time to settle up his
business affairs and be ready to as
sume the duties by January 1 if pos
sible. "Requests for the appointment of
Judge Post have reached this office
from nearly every county in the dis
trict, and I feel that his appoint
ment should meet with universal
satisfaction."

Lincoln, Dec. 10. (Special.)
Two very important changes in the
constitution are contemplated in
resolutions offered in the morning
session of the constitutional con
vention Wednesday.
One of these was a resolution by
Epperson of Clay county which
would obliterate, wipe out and
throw over the constitutional tran
som, the state railway commission.
The other was a resolution by
Bigelow of Douglas which would
practically give every city, town
and village in the state home rule
and the right to frame its own laws
without interference from the legis
lature as long as those laws did not
conflict with state laws, or the con
stitution. -.Change Judges' Election.
However, another resolution by
Davies of Boyd would elect supreme
judges ' by districts and the chief
justice of the supreme court by the
entire state. This idea seems to be
especially popular with the out
state members.
Evans of Adams introduced a
similar resolution, except that it re
lates to regents of the university
and would elect one regent from
each congressional district. Svoboda
of Howard has a resolution which
would convene the legislature in
December following the election in
stead of in January as at present
Lehman of Hitchcock county in
troduced a resolution which em
powers the members of the bar as
sociation to nominate candidates for
supreme judge, but permits the peo
ple to elect them. '
Name Chairmen.
Eleven additional' committees of
the constitutional convention met
Wednesday and selected chairmen as
follows:
1 Legislative department, Norton of
Polk; executive department, Stew
art of Lancaster; judicial depart
ment, Heasty of Jefferson; suffrage,
Spillman of Pierce; education, Nye
of. Buffalo; insurance and financial
institutions, Junkin of Gosper; rev
enue and taxation, Pollard of Cass;
state and county boundaries, Bige
low of Douglas; irrigation, drainage,
water power and natural resources,
Cornell of Cherry; initiative 4nd
referendum, Sidner of Dodge;
amendments and requisition, Hol
brook of Dodge.
The constitutional convention hall
is a very frigid place today and
many of the delegates were com
pelled to wear their overcoats dur
ing the morning session. As a re
sult Vice President Jackson moved
that the convention adjourn until
the first Monday in January. Cor
nell of Cherry sought to amend the
motion by moving that when the
convention adjourns at the end of
the week, it be subject to the call
of the president, but not later than
January 5. Pollard of Cass offered
a substitute that when the conven
tion adjourns at the end of this
week it reconvene at 2 the follow
ing Monday. Pollard's substitute
carried after considerable discus
sion, the delegates favoring the mo
tion saying that a morning session
could be had each day and then the
rest of the time could be spent by
the delegates in going through the
state library and state university
looking up information relative to
the work before the convention.
This motion carried by a vote of
52 to 27. '
The convention then adjourned
until 10 tomorrow morning.

Money Collected Said to
Have Been Paid to Lawyers
To Get Kirk Out of Prison
i , a L 1 1 ii j
Thousands of Dollars Contributed to Fund for No
torious Gunman and Convicted Murderer Last
Summer With Understanding He Was to Be Given
Freedom in September, the Same Month Sensa
tional "Furlough" Was Signed. t .
Beryl Kirk, convicted murderer
and notorious bandit, whose sensa
tional release from the penitentiary
a week ago has attracted the at
tention of the entire middle west
and shocked and stirred the state,
still has not yet been declared a fu
gitive from justice by the authori
ties at Lincoln.
Despite the fact that private de
tectives are working on the theory
that on Kirk's release from the state
prison, on the "scrap of paper" or
der signed by Acting Governor
Bushee, he was joined by the men
who cracked Hayden Bros, safe,
state officials have not even request
ed the authorities in neighboring
states to apprehend .the bandit, who
has been at large for more than' a
week.
Given Plenty of Time.
The man who was convicted of
having taken part in the Maleshock
jewelry store robbery and the sub
sequent murder of City Detective
Rooney, and who was released from
prison on a "furlough," has been af
forded ample opportunity to make
good his getaway:
Neither Governor McKelvie, who
is in Washington, or Lieutenant
Governor Barrows, have indicated a
disposition to apprehend the io-
torious criminal, who not only has
been convicted of murder and rob
bery, but who is thought by many
to have been indirectly implicated
in the biggest and boldest burglary
ever staged in the history of Ne
braska. Say Went to Kansas City.
Omaha friends of Kirk declare he
went to' Kansas City immediately
following a short visit in this city
after his release. He was seen by
a city detective on a street car with
his wife the day after he left the
penitentiary. : " .
Friends of the notorious bandit
became active early last summer to
obtain his release. It is known they
raised a large , sum of money for
this purpose and that scores of
persons in this city contributed to
the fund. It was said at the time
the collection was being taken up
that the money was to be paid to
attorneys, who were thought to be
in position to secure a pardon.
'It is also known to be a fact
that certain attorneys in Omaha dis-.
cussed the matter with Senator
Bushee six months ago. Following
a meeting of Kirk's friends in the
Henshaw hotel, which was attended
by interested parties from Lincoln,
Mrs. Kirk became active in obtain
ing affidavits from persons of in
fluence in this city concerning the
character of her husband.
Presented 3 Months Later.
Thousands of dollars were raised
in Omaha for the Kirk fund laat
July and August. It was the under
standing of those who donated to
the fund that Kirk was to be re
leased in Septembeer. It is known
the order for the prisoner's release
was signed in September. For some
reason, however, which has not been
explained by Senator Bushee, who
signed the order, or by the attorneys
employed in the case, the order was
not presented to the warden of the
penitentiary until December, three
months later.
Kirk was said to have been with
out funds and it became necessary
to supply him with money in order
to insure his netaway. Umana at
torneys representing Kirk are said
to have known nothing ot the con
nection of the law firm of Peterson
& Devoe with the case until recent
ly. The money raised last summer
is said to have been paid to attor
neys in this city.
Disappeared After Robbery.
Two men who were tried for the
jewelry store robbery and murder
of Detective Rooney, and who were
acquitted, are said to have been in
Omaha for a week before the Hay
den Bros, store was burglarized.
They are known to have disappeared
immediately afterwards.
Kirk and his wife are said to have
left Lincoln with another mart and
woman.
Kirk Probe Awaits Return
of the Governor, from East
Lincoln, Neb., Dec. 10. (Special.)
State officials here, expressing
strong sentiment favoring a detailed
investigation into the sensational re
lease of Bandit Kirk of Omaha from
the state penitenitary December 2,
are reluctant to inaugurate definite
action in the absence of Governor
McKelvie.
Disappearance of important pa
pers concerning the Kirk case, re
ported yesterday, stirred discussion
of the case to hot debate on the
outer circles of the state constitu
tional convention, in session here.
Reports from Omaha, that detec
tives there are inclined to connect a
recent $63,000 downtown robbery in
that city with the bandit's release,
caused considerable comment here
These reports ppint out that former
pals of Bandit Kirk were seen in
Omaha just prior to the robbery
which was committed just two days
prior to Kirk's release, and have not
been seen since.
Officials here await the return of
the governor with impatience, count
ing on nis ordering an iiivc5hk"
of the case at once.
Affects Peterson's Standing.
It is said that Senator Petrus Pe
terson's connection with the affair,
as law partner to R. W. DeVoe, to
whom the bandit was "furloughed,"
is having its effect on. the senators
influence in the state constitutional
convention, and that measures which
Senator Peterson proposes are met
by some convention members with
indifference.
The general feeling throughout
the state capital is that Governor
McKelvie must demand a complete
probe of the "furlough" scandal
upon his return from Washington,
which is expected Friday.
The report, which was missed yes
terday from the files in the gover-.
nor's office, was made by E. M.
Johnson of the charities and correc
tion department of the state, after
he had been designated to investi
gate the Beryl Kirk case by the
governor.
Following is a complete copy of
the report, which bears at its top

terviews with Mrs. B. C. Kirk, ex
Chief of Detectives Dempsey, Coun
ty Attorney Abel V. Shotwcll, and
Detective Felix. Dolan.
"August 1, 1919 Hon. S. R. Mc
Kelvie, governor of Nebraska.
, "Kirk was formerly in the employ
of the street railway company, but
left that position about three years
before the occurrence of the crime
for which he was sent to the peni
tentiary. During these three years
he had no steady employment but at
times worked in garages and at
other places temporarily. It was
definitely known, and admitted by
his wife, that he was engaged in
bootlegging and connected with au
tomobile thieves. He was on famil
iar terms with one Wally Martin,
who was known to police authori
ties as an active operator in auto
mobile stealing and was wanted in
several places in the state for crimes
of that character.
"A gang of known criminals, Mar
tin, Williams and Stone among
them, made their rendezvous at
Kirk's house, free use of any part
of the quarters.
Kirk Not in Robbery.
"The robbery of the Malasheck
jewelry store was planned and exe
cuted by five men now known to
have been Martin, Williams, Stone,
McKay and Appleby. This robbery
occurred about 4 in the afteno6n
and about 8 in the evening the police
surrounded Kirk's house and Detec
tive Van Dusen, Dolan, Rooney and
Danbaum entered the house. Dolan
and Rooney immediately ascended
the stairs and found a company of
men in a room dividing the spoils
from the robbery. Kirk was with
them, and when the detective called
upon them to surrender two of them
leaped behind the bed and began
shooting, also reached to the wall
light and pulled it out, leaving the
room in darkness. Rooney, who
was at that time standing in the
doorway with the hall light behind
him, became a good mark for the
gun men and was shot. The men
in the room tried to make their es
cape through a window, but the po
lice on the outside opened fire on
them and Kirk, Martin, Williams,
Stone and McKay finally surrender
ed. Appleby made his escape and
was later arrested in Wisconsin.
"It is definitely determined that
Kirk was not at the jewelry store
at the time of the robbery. When
these men came up for trial, Martin
was permitted to plead guilty to the
crime of highway robbery and the
others were given, separate trials.
The jury in the case of McKay ac
quitted him. Stone, Williams and
Kirk were found guilty of murder
in the second degree and were given
a sentence of 20 years each in the
penitentiary.
"When Appleby was returned for
trial, Kirk, with the others, was
called to testify in his case, but none
of them would give any damaging
testimony against him. Mrs. Kirk,
who was conversant with all the
events which occurred at her house,
would not take the stand in the
Appleby trial,
"It is definitely known that Kirk
had no property of any moment, but
a large.sum of money has already
been expended to secure his release
Making a transcript of the case, pre
paring the bill of exceptions, carry

to present to your excellency. This
money, together with whatever oth
er expcntt there may be in securing
his release, Is being, furnished by his
friends, , with whom he has 'been
formerly associated.
"According to those interviewed,
there is no doubt concerning Kirk's
guilt, in common with others, of a
purpose or design to resist arrest,
even to the taking of life. And
with the others proceeded to carry
out that purpose by joining in the
pistol duel. Respectfully submitted,

SAVING LIVES
IF BACK ACHY OR
KIDNEYS BOTHER
Eat less meat, also take glass
of Salts before eating
' breakfast. . ..
Uric acid in meat excites the kid
neys, they become overworked; get
sluggish, ache, and feel like lumps
of lead. The urine becoms cloudy,
the bladder is irritated, and you may
be obliged to seek relief two or three
times during the night. When the
kidneys clog, you must help them
flush off the body's urinous waste
or you'll be a real sick person short
ly. At first you feel a dull misery in
the kidney region, you suffer from
backache, sick headache, dizziness,
stomach gets sour, tonsrue coated.
and you feel rheumatic twinges
wnen tne weather is bad.
Eat less meat, drink lots of water;
also get from any pharmacist four
ounces of Jad Salts; take a table
spoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast for a few davs and vour
kidneys will then act fine. This fa
mous, salts is made from the acid
of grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithia, and has been used for
generations to clean clogged kid
neys and stimulate them to normal
activity, also to neutralize the acids
in urine, so it no longer is a source
of irritation, thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot
injure; makes a delightful efferves
cent lithia-water drink which every
one should take now and then to
keep the kidneys clean and active.
Druggists here say they sell lots of
Jad Salts to folks who believe in
overcoming kidney trouble while it
is only trouble. .
