Charged with the trans portation and possession of liquor and bootlegging, Ray Cooley and pretty Birdie Ctidona, both of Oma ,h, were on trial Way in district ourt, pleading not guilty to the allegations made by police that an agent purchased booze from the woman the night of March 6, when the couple were caught in the room of a local hotel. Ol'ficeres testified that the girl was selling liquor to the plain clothes man when they entered to make the arrest. She was scantily clothed, they said, while Cooley slept through the entire disturbance, the victim of his own wares. A suitcase containing nine quarts of liquor is alleged to have been found in the room and Was one of the eNhibits in the court room today. The couple, with Ted Savinsky, arrived from Omaha early in the tveninsr of March 6 and parked in front of a local hotel. An officer no ticed the porter struggling : with a suspicious-looking suitcase while Cooley carried a similar load. In vestigation followed and later in the night the officers, sent the agent to the room with marked money to - buv the liquor, for which he .gave $15 a quart, according to police. . As the officers entered the room, il is alleged, the Cudon.i Voman crumpled the money in her hand and tried to throw it 'under the bureau. After Cooley ' was awakened from his "deep dream of peace," the entire party was escorted to jail,' where they remained for a' few days until 'bail Was furnished.' The car was held - by the county' authorities. Evidently Cooky's main fight in tfic present proceedings it to maintain that thi ear was not -used to transport the liquor. ,' .. .

Dr. Smith, a well known eya specialist, and Dr. Judkins, a Massa chusetts physician and medical author, make the following reports after a thorough test of a popular remedy for the eyes: Says ' Dr. Smith : "When my attention was first called to it I was inclined to be skeptical. But it ia a rale of mine to give every new treatment a chance to prove its value. Having- specialised in eye work for many years I feel qualified to express an intelligent opinion on remedies . for the eyes. Since this one has created such a sen sation I welcomed the opportunity, to test it. I besran to use it in my practice a little over a year ago and I am frank to ssy that some of the results I have accomplished withr Bon-Opto not. only astonish myself, bnt also .other, physicians with whom . I have. talVad about it, and J advise ''every thoughtful physician to give Bon-Opto the same careful trial I have and there ia no doubt in my mind that he will come to the conclusion I have, that it opens the door for the cure of many eye troubles which hav heretofore been difficult to eppe, with. I have had individuals who had worn; glasses for years tell me they has dispensed with them through the uo of Bon-Opto. In my own practice I have seen it- strengthen the eyesight hiore than 60 per cent in one week's time. ' I have also used it with surprising results in eases of work-itramed eyes, pink eye. inflamed lids, catarrhal conjunctivae, smarting, painful, aching, itching eyes, eyes weak ened . i rem colds. . smoket aun, dust and wind. . watery eyea, blurred vision, and. in fact, many other conditions too numerous to mention in this report. A new and striking case that has just been brought to my attention ia that of a girl 12 years old. Two prominent eye specialists, after a thorough examination, deeided. according to -her father, that in order to save, the sight of her right eye, the left must be re moved. While awaitinc an opportunity for the operation and still undecided as to iU wurtoui, her father wa told It would do no httrm to use Bon-Opto.

Lincoln, April 12. (Special Tele gram.) Farmer. members of the lower house spent four hours last night endeavoring' to reach an un derstanding concerning the nature of the interior of Senate File 65, the taxation bill, which is arousing such a storm over the state. Representative H. L. Webster of Burt, acting chairman, declared all the farmers wanted was information on which to base an opinion witb an understanding of a special ses sion in the fall to devise a tax bill. Tonight found him expressing the following thought: "Wewant to pull off our coats and jump into it and do the best we can right here, right now." Senator C. B. Anderson of Lan caster, the guiding spirit in the taxa tion bill, was invited by the farmers to act as spokesman. He defended centralization of taxation power and reassessment power as the only methods of outtine a proper pro pelling machine behind local asses sors to dig out the intangibles. Statistics on the intangiDie anu real nrooertv taxes naid by large mercantile companies in Omaha and Lincoln to show the need of a law that will draw more intangibles out were distributed among the farmers. These statistics were prepared by. W. H. Osborne, state tax commis sioner. . Representative Barbour of Scotts- bluff suggested that in order to in sure the 'ferreting out ot intan gibles, an amendment should be dooted forcing owners of intang ibles to get them stamped in April, each yfar. or the person against whom the intangible was held would not be responsible for payment, ji .

' Massachusetts . physician and medical author, formerly chief of clinics in- the Union General Hospital, Boston, Mass., and formerly house surgeon at the New England Eye and Ear Infirmary of Portland, Maine, -says: -"I have found oculists too prone to operate and opticians too willing to pre scribe glasses, while neglecting the simple formulas which form the basis of Bon Opto, which in my opinion, is a remark able remedy for the cure and prevention of many eye disorders. Its success in de veloping and strengthening the eyesight .will soon, make eye-glasses old-fashioned and the use of Bon-Opto as common as that of the- tooth brush.: I am thoroughly convinced from my experience with Bon Opto that it will strengthen the eyesight at least 60 per cent in one week's time in many instances." ' Victims of eye strain and other eya weak nesses and many who wear glasses will be glad to know that according to Dra. Smith and Judkins there is real hope and help for them..

'Check Artists' Change Pleas to Guilty After Few Months in Jail Fremont, Neb., April 12. (Special Telegram.) Two ''check artists" de cided to plead guilty after spending several months in the local jail, ex pecting to plead not guilty. Marion E. Lunn, with several aliases, was arrested last November when he forged the name of O. A. McFarlin, a farmer and former em ployer, to a check in payment for clothing in a local store. When taken to jail he admitted ' his crime and gave a. heart-rending story of a starvine family in South Dokota waiting for help from their unem ployed father and husband. He changed his mind later and preferred to plead not guilty. J. E. Ellman of Detroit. Mich., gave a check for $150 to a tire com pany here, equipped a touring car with the tires and . then departed for . parts unknown, after he had gained the confidence of several bus iness men. The. check came back marked "insufficient funds." Erll man was brought back from Denver a few months later and placed in jail. Evidently discouraged by the rec ord of County Attorney J. C. Cook, who has not lost a conviction in the past twq terms of court, the men pleaded -guilty today. .Lunn got from one to 20 years and Ellman was fined $250, . Counterfeiter Used Boys To Pass Notes He Raised The first conviction in the round up of counterfeiters by secret serv ice operatives ' in the middle west was obtained Monday when Thomas Olmare was convicted at Sioux Falls, S. D. George Smith, assistant to Dave Dickinson, secret service agent in Omaha, was r a principal witness against Olmare. . , Olmare employed young boys to cass the counterfeit notes after he had raised them artistically from denominations of $1 to $10.

Wrestling With Patronage Delegation Has Held Three Sessions to Read Endorse mcnts of Candidates for Federal Jobs. By E. C. SNYDER. Washington Correspondent, Omaha Bee. Washington, April 12. (Special Telegram.) Owing, to the inability of the house to complete its organ ization before 3 o'clock, the meeting of the Nebraska delegation, sched uled for that hour, was postponed until . Tuesday. Whether the dele gation will meet this morning is problematical, but it is generally agreed that a session will be held Tuesday afternoon if Congressman Reavis is, able to attend. Mr. Reavis and members of the joint committee on reorganization have an engagement with the presi dent tomorrow afternoon to talk over the scope the committee should cover in its recommendations looking'to the consolidation of bureaus and the elimination of overlapping in depart mental activities. . The Nebraska delegation has held three sessions in the last few days, the entire time being taken up with the reading of endorsemcnts of individ uals for various federal jobs. They first looked up recommendatitons for collector of internal revenue and then, without passing on the merits of the aspirants, they began reading the endorsements of promlrent c'ti zens for the several candidates -for United States attorney. ' Some quiet sport was indulged in when it was ascertained that a prom inent Lincoln republican had en dorsed two candidates for United States attomey and failed to explain just why he had given his recom mendation to both.

Company, operating the present toll bridge : across the Missouri river between Omaha arid Council Bluffs, addresses, through this me dium, a few statements of fact to the voters of Omaha on the proposition of voting bondsfor ; a so-called "free" bridge between thetwocities; lWhoW ants theuFree" Bridget The' proposal to build a so-called' "free" bridge certainly cannot be said to have originated in either a public necessity or popular demand. It originated with the . statement by somebody that the bridge between Omaha and Council Bluffs was the orily toll bridge on the Lincoln Highway:- The argument is advanced that un less, a so-called "free" bridge is con structed here tourists might go by some other route, i Like many other arguments made byyover-enthusiastic promoters this -one is both false and foolish. The jtwo "principal streams crossed by the Lincoln Highway are : the Mississippi and the Missouri. It crosses the Mississippi at Clinton OVER A TOLL BRIDGE just as it crosses the Missouri at Omaha over i a tojl bridge. v r What decides the' automobile tourist in his choice of routes' is Good Roads, not "free" bridges. He is Accustomed to pay ing. toll, not only for crossing bridges, '.but in 'many Eastern , states for driving over highways. Such travelers care noth ing for the small j sums they contribute towards, the upkeep of bridges or even roads. They would much rather pay toll to drive over good hard-surfaced roads than to travel free through mud. Another argument advanced by the "free" bridge- advocates is that persons of small means who work' in Omaha could acquire cheap , homes in the bot- . torn lands on the Iowa;side of the river. If this were true it would' certainly be no " advantage to Omaha.;; The: fact is, how ever, that these-persons Tof small means I, .

Let's see what the facts are: The great majority of Council Bluffs shoppers-corn- ing to Omaha ride on the street cars and not in automobiles. A "free" bridge would ' not reduce street car fares, between the V two cities, but on the contrary would nec- ' ' . essarily Increase them because the rev enue from street car fares without the bridge tolls is insufficient to meet oper ating expenses, taxes and "interest on bonds. Therefore, the construction of a so-called "free" bridge would INJURE and not benefit the Omaha retail mer chant. ; . ' Who then wants a "free" bridge?
