What beauties with purple dyes

What beauties with purple dyes
The face of hill and valley
When morning breaks. and nature wakes
And summer breezes daily
What hides the grass when shadows pass,
From cloudlets flying over
And greets the view, all bright with dew
What is it but the clover?
It's purple heads where Flora treads
Bend lightly as she passes,
While swallows cry, and plover fly
Above the hidden grasses.
With gentle sip from dewy lin
OF many winged rover
Both bird and bee in rivalry
Draw honey from the clover.
Its blossoms fair bow here and there.
No zephvrs ripping over,
And perfumes sweet the stranger greet
Who walks amid the clover.

Greene opened district court here on Mon
day with a fine array of attorneys and
some interesting cases before him. The
bailtfs for the term are: A. Johnson, A..
Conard, d. Cool and e. Slade. At the very
outset 1t was found necessary to rearrange
the assignment of cases. Work was com
menced Tuesday on the equity docket. On
Wednesday morning the Exchange Bank of
Walnut against John 5. Morgan and others
was called. 1t was found to have been
settled out of court, and was dismissed
from the docket. Barton & Van Slyke
against Bartleson and others, a suit for 5000
attorneys fees was heard and taken under
advisement. Today the case of Frum
against Keeney, to replevin some stock pur-
chased at public sale, a note for $42i being
given in payment, was taken up before n
jury. The defense sets up that the note was
not accepted, and that therefore the trans
action is void.
Barton & Van Slyke have been appointed
to defend Joe Ross, the tramp arrested for
stealing an overcoat from Roy Hazen.

RumIey Addicted to Absiptbe.

K. L.. Rumley, who committed suicide In
Omaha yesterday, has been employed at the
Grand hotel in the capacity of head cook
for more than a year. He bore an excellent
reputation as a young man and stood at
the top of his profession as a cook. Neither
Mr.. Clark nor Mr.. Duryea had any intima-
tion that he was addicted at all to the use of
intoXicsnts until about three weeks ago.
His relations with the management of the
hotel and the help was most pleasant. Not
n word of fault had been found with him or
his work since he came to the hotel. He
did not leave the hotel on Tuesday evening
until after all of his work was completed
and the arrangements for the next day made
in detail. So well was this done that there
was not the slightest interruption of the
work in the kitchen occasioned by his abb
sence during the next day. He evidently
did not contemplate committing suicide
when he went out that evening. 1t was
learned yesterday hat the cause OF his
trouble and the probable cause OF his death
was the fact that he had recently became
addicted to the use of absinthe. He drank
large quantities of it at several of the
Council Bluffs saloons before going to
Omaha. He has been in the habit of calling
for it regularly at one saloon and a few
days ago the proprietor gave orders not to
let him have any more of the compound
under any circumstances.

conferences pulled against a heavy tide and
made seemingly no Roadway toward the goal

their ranks many Of the most independent
and bralny men OF the church. SO long as
the delegates are composed OF people who are
able to pay their expenses to the conference

SAINTS APPOINT MISSIONARIES.
Conference at Lamont IL Nearing the
End Of la LabOrs.

LAMONT, Ia, April 1~5,-(Special Tele-
gram.)-The Latter Day Saints conference
did not complete its work today. The seven
ties were permitted to get license from the
church signed by the president and secre-
tary of the church. A large list OF mission
airy appointments was presented by the
quorums of Twelve, was read and adopted
by the conference.
The seventies quorum presented a petition
asking that when missionaries and workers
are appointed the body ordaining them also
issue their licenses. The request was
granted. The same body asked, and the re-
quest was granted, that the missionaries in
charge OF the various districts should be
consulted in the appointment OF subordinate
missionaries and workers.
1t was ordered that the church's fiscal year
close December 81.
Resolutions were passed providing that
when districts issue certificates OF appoint
ments to laborers they shall first get the
consent of the missionary in charge, and
that the publication of missionary reports
be discontinued. The question of discon-
tinuing the publication Of the bishops item
lied statement was deferred until the next
conference. The preparation and publication
