CORRECT DESCRIPTION
Of John Shepherd, the Negro Want d
 in Walker County

There is now no doubt that Dr. Rose mond saw the negro rape fend. John Shep- herd, in Birmingham few nights ago. He had q conference with SherI1. O Rear yes- terday and the description s1 gave of the negro he saw exactly suited that of John Shepherd.
 The correct description of the negro fol- lows:
 Height, feet 10 or Il inches weight. 175 pounds; lean, raw-boned no surplus flesh; stands very erect Looks something like an Indian or Mexican being copper-coored and not a mulatto, as has been erroneously stated Has scar on right hand near wrist bone, running towards thumb. Also a scar on left temple near the eye, not so proml- nent that it would be noticed without close scrutiny.
 The negro will be best detected on ac- count of his reddish-copper color and athletic appearance.

SYMPATHY OF JUDGE ALLEN
Ex-senator Says Huyward's Death
VIII He DepIorcd by All
the state.

NORFOLK, Neb., Dec. 5.-(Special Tele-
gram Judge w. V. Allen came in at noon
from Pierce, where he had been holding
court, on his way to Antelope county to
open the December term. When informed
of Senator Haywarde death he said:
Judge Hayward's death will be deeply
deplored by all the people of this state. In
this trying hour the hearts of Nebraskans
will go out to his wife and children in
spontaneous sympathy. No one regrets more
than his untimely death"
SYRACUSE, Neb., Dec. 5.-(Special)-
The many friends of Senator Hayward in
Syracuse were much grieved at the intelli-
gence Of his DEATH although the inevitable
had been expected for so many days. He
was frequently here on business and his
figure was a familiar one on the streets OF
the city.
FREMONT, Neb., Dec. 5.-(Special)-
The announcement of Senator Hayward's
death this morning. though looked for for
several days, spread feeling of gloom and
sadness among his many friends here, some
of whom had for years been intimately as
sociated with him in business and political
matters. In the last legislature the delega-
tion from Dodge county supported Hayward
on every ballot number from here will

FAVORS LARGER SALARIES
GrisEs Recommends an Increase for
Supreme and Circuit Court
Judges.

WASHINGTON, Dec 5-Attorney Gen
eral Griggs, in his annual report to con-
gress, reviews the work of the Department
of Justice during the year On the subject
of judiciary salaries the attorney general
says:
1T is not an uncommon thing to find a
lawyer appearing before the United States
courts in case where his fee for one argu-
ment exceeds the annual salary of the judge.
The judges of the United States supreme
court and the circuit and district courts are
inadequately recompensed. The same Is also
true of those Of the court of claims. The
courts OF the United States are everywhere
in the civilized world held in the very high
est Tepute, yet their judges are paid smaller
salaries than are allowed by the states TO
state judges in very many jurisdictions. I
believe that an increase of the salary of
the chief justice and associate justices OF
the supreme court to $4,000 a year. of the
circuit judges to 100000, and the district
judges to $500 a year would be a simple
measure of justice and approved by every
just minded citizen"

or anybody here is a malicious liar Tha,
is all have to say to the board"
I'VE thought replied Judge Pryor, that
it was due to us and just to you that you
should be notified OF the fact that was
suggested"
THAT is right" said Governor Bradley.
as he walked toward the door. Turning.
with his hand on the doorknob, he said
emphatically, And am responsible for It
in here or out OF here"
After leaving the commissioners room,
Governor Bradley stopped in front Of large
crowd Of spectators who filed the outer
Office of the secretary OF state.
Now, boys" he said, you know they
are talking about intimidation and ! don I
really think it wise for you to remain here.
or course we all know you would not in
tmidate anybody, but 1t is just as well
that there should be no arrests"
In obedience to the suggestion. the crowd,
which comprised as many democrats as re-
publicans, quietly left the office.
In addition to the counties passed yester-
day for argument before the contestiug
beard, the counties of Hopkins, Jefferson,
Johnson, Knox, Lewis Magofnn and Mar
tin were passed today Harlan county was
among those passed yesterday, the demo-
cratic attorneys promising to announce to-
day the nature of their evidence against the
legality Of the vote in that county. Judge
Hargis declared however, that the evidence
had not been received and that all obiec-
tions to the vote of Harlan county were
withdrawn. Hopkins county was passed be-
cause of irregularities in two precincts
Jefferson county in which Louisville Is sit
uated, was passed without much argument
Immediately upon the conclusion of the
canvass, Judge Prior remarked to the demo-
cratic attorneys: Gentlemen, you will
please submit in writing before the board
ccnvenes tomorrow written copies of the
charges you bring in each county, and will,
of course, serve copies upon the attorneys
on the other side"

Pulled Down Hill.

~ relied on coffee so much to keep me up,

My sleep was badly broken at night and

when 1t became evident that | was in a

off coffee and try Postum Food Coffee.
Mother made it first, but none of us could
endure 1t, it was so fiat and testeless. She
proposed to throw the package away but l
said: suspend judgment until we have made
it strictly according to directions. 1t seems
she had made the Postum like she always
made coffee, taking il of the stove as soon
as il began TO boil. Mother was so preju-
diced against it that she did not care to try
II again, but got sister to make the Postum
next morning strictly according TO direc-
tions, that is, allow it to boil full fifteen
minutes after the boiling begins
I'VE we're amazed at the difference. Sister
said it was better than coffee, TO her taste.
than the old, and fathor, who is an enderly
gentleman and had used coffee all his life,
appeared to relish the Postum as we'll as my
little brother, who took to it from the first
For while mother clung to her old fav-
orte, although she was sick more or less of
the time, Finally. one morning, she drank
a cup of Postum by mistake, believing 1t to
be coffee We joked her so much about IT,
because she did not discover the difference
that she finally admitted that she had occa-
sionally taken sip of the Postum Coffee
and from that time she proposed to use il al
together. Her health has been very greatly
improved and We are all strong advocates OF
