HATCHET AGAINST A KNIFE
Lively Little War Caused by One
Woman Making Faces mt
Another.

Mrs Minnie Schrube, 1415 Leavenworth.
was arrested yesterday on the complaint
OF Sue Hanger, who charges her with dis
turbing the peace. This disturbance is said
to consist Of fiourlshing of butcher knives
and the using of sundry derogatory express
slons by the defendant A dozen witnesses
have been subpoenaed and the prospects are
promising that Judge Gordon will devote all
of June 16 to the trial.
Mrs. Schrube says she has full charge of
the rooming house at the number given
She asserts that her arrest is due to the fact
that she ordered the Hanger family to leave
the fiat because they would not pay rent.
She says Mrs. Hanger is given to making
faces at her and once or twice there came
very nearly being a fight, one of the
wohan having knife and the
other a hatchet. Mrs. Schrube urges fur
ther that she cannot bear to be harassed by
such faces as that worn by Mrs Hanger when
she starts out to make trouble and that a
scrap as is scrap" will occur one OF these
days IL she does not stop.

FAWCETT CARRIES HIS POINT
Jury Secured in BARLEY Case and Trial
Scheduled for Thursday.
NO CHANCE FOR FURTHER PosTPoNEMENT
Alleged Attempt Mt Bribery Will Be
Passed Over as Imaginative
Sentence Day in the
Criminal Court.

The jury has been completed In the Bart
actual trial has been postponed to Thursday
morning. Only two peremptory challenges
remained to be disposed Of yesterday and
the places of the two jurors who were dis
missed were filled without difficulty. Judge
Fawcett then announced that he would con-
tnue the case to Thursday in order to per-
nit Mr.. Ransom to finish the Chollman
murder trial. 1t is also expected that Gen
eral Gown will be back from the east by
that time and take charge of the defense
for the bondslnen.
Both the court and the attorneys were
agreeably surprised by the comparative ease
with which the jury was secured. Only
thirty-tve talesmen were excused for cause.
The jury as completed consists of P. NJ. Full
ton, Edwin NJ. Oney Joseph Spellman L. F.
Perkins, D. H. Harris, George S. Holman,
]. r. French, F. d. Brown, F. ]. Egger,
Charles Castles and w. R. Bell.
Fred Krelle, the juror who asserted that
he had been approached, was excused from
service. After some investigation Judge
Fawcett has decided that the incident is not
as important as Krelle seemed to think. He
said that it looked to him as though some
uninterested person had made the remark to
Krelle merely as an expression of opinion
and not with any intention OF trying TO
bribe him. If any of the parties to the case
had been involved in such proceeding they
would not have gone at 1t in such clumsy
manner

While She is Ill.

promises to become pretty serious Of
Tense for him. When tried in police court
before Judge Gordon Saturday afternoon
Phillips denied that he had ever struck his
WIFE When she testified she told how he
had beaten her so last Tuesday night that
her arms and lower limbs were black with
bruises, while one side of her face was
purple. She identified a stick a foot in
length which he had used upon her. She
Is in delicate health and said further that
her husband had told her he intended to
beat her into insensibilty and then kill
her. she testified that they were married
in Council Bluffs last month after living
together for two years. Her parents wanted
her to come home and had sent her tickets
twice, but she had decided both times to
remain with him Even now she said she
was willing to go back to him if he would
promise to be good to her.
Phillips denied outright that he had ever
struck his wife. He insisted that someone
else had beaten her that way and he did
not know of 1t until after he had been ar
rested, when an officer told him.
Judge Gordon decided to bind him over
TO tue district court and placed his bond
at $1,000. Judge Helsley asked suspen-
sion of the decision until he could confer
with Chief White as he understood that the
woman's father, who lives near Nashville,
Tenn, is very anxious to send for her.

LAND IN THE COUNTY JAIL
Wilson and Howe Are Accused of
Selling Liquor to
Indians.

Two more men, Thomas Wilson and w.
c. Howe charged with selling liquor to the
Omaha and Winnebago Indians, have landed
in the Douglas county Jail. They wers
brought down from Pender by Deputy Allen
of the United States marsha's office, after
having been before United States Commits
sioner Sloan. Wilson is a tramp who
dropped into Pender few days ago. Imme-
diately upon his arrival there he commenced
to buy bottles of liquor and dispose of them
to the Indians, realizing profit of from 50
to 100 per cent on the Investment.
Howe is said to be a respectable youpa
man. However, the statement is made thai

Iections of the Endeavor conventions is IN
the acquaintance and fellowship upon these

committee has arranged to meet the official
train fifty miles this side Of the city and
make assignments for lodgings, so that upon
arrival at headquarters every delegate will
know where to sleep and eat. This Is
especially fortunate, for the crowds will be
immense. and there could be little chance
for anyone to be promptly located with his
state delegation who was not with the COM
pany when assignments were made. Ne
braskans will have lodgings for so cents
and meals for 25 cents in the best houses
of Detroit, within easy walk of the conven-

sPLII ON HOuCK,s SUCCESSOR
Fusion Majority Cannot Agree on
Claims of Rival Candidates for
County Patronage.

The fusion members OF the Board Of
County mmssioners are having no little
difficulty in selecting a man OF their faith
to succeed Miles y. Houck as superintend-
ent Of the court house This developed at
the regular meeting yesterday when
Connolly and Hoctor locked horns over the
appointment while the republican mem
bers looked with evident complacency on
the dissension in the majority camp. Con-
molly opened the ball with a resolution
which provided that D. ]. Fitzgerald should
be appointed at once. He called for a vote,
but Harte objected and under the rules the
resolution was referred to the committee on
court house and jals
Later in the session Hoctor called Harte
to the chair and introduced a resolution
similar to Connollys, except that the name
Of Ed ]. Dee was substituted for that of
Fitzgerald. Connolly voted against the
resolution, but at this point Hoctor asked
that 1t be referred for a personal reason
and the request was granted. The majority
members will thus have an opportunity to
try to get together before the next meeting
The petition Of the Douglas County Agri-
cultural society in regard to the appropri-
alton for the use OF the society in making
an exhibit at the Greater America Exposi-
tlon was formally granted. On recommenda-
tion of the committee of the whole the ap-
preparation Of $3,55b.54 on account OF the
1895 levy and that OF $2,774.4O for 1898
were ordered drawn from the 1899 levy for
payment by warrant.
Among the bills approved we're items ag-
gregating $240.50 for detective services per
formed for the county attorney by p.
Mostyn and others in connection with the
slot machine investigations. Harte and
Ostrom voted against the bills, but the ma
jority ordered them paid.
o. W. Pickard was appointed constable in
Douglas precinct.
Guy Franklin was appointed keeper Of
the court house grounds at a salary of 80
a month.
On motion Of Harte the communication

HAVE ANOTHER CONFERENCE
This Time the Park Board VIII lie
Present to Fight for One
More Viaduct.

The park commissioners made an effort
Saturday to meet representatives OF the Bur
lington and Pacific roads to discuss the clause
of the proposed agreement on viaduct mat
ters relating to Boulevard street. Nothing
could be done however, on account of the
absence of General Manager Holdrege of the
Burlington. The absence of Councilman
Bechel has prevented a meeting of the council
committee on railroads, telegraphs and tee-
phones since the last council meeting, at
which the proposed agreement was referred
to 1t. 1t Is probable that a conference be-
tween the council committee and the roads
will be held some time Monday and it is now
the intention of the members OF the park
board to be present at that conference. The
board was very anxious to have a meeting
with the roads before they and the COM
mittee came together as 1t was feared the
settlement OF the differences on the basis
proposed would proceed too far to he him
dered If another conference were held and no
protest made by the board. But falling to
do so, the board will attend the conference
and do what 1t can TO secure the early build
ing of vaduct on Boulevard street.
1t is understood that the roads are friendly
TO the park board and do not favor leaving
the building OF viaduct on that street until
the street is paved II some other agreement
can be reached. But 1t is naturally expected
that II the roads concede the city a viaduct
there they will demand corresponding con-
cession in some other quarter of the city.
AS previously explained, the articles OF a
permanent agreement between the two
roads and the city, submitted to the council
at the last meeting, contain the provision
that the building OF viaduct on Boulevard
street shall be delayed until the street has
been paved on both sides. The park board
does not intend to pave the street al all, but
to make a gravel and cinder driveway on it,
