The action of the city council in re.
districting the city has called forth
much favorable comment since 1t has
become known. While the division has
been made on somewhat different lines
than those proposed by residents of the
third ward, it seems entirely satisfac-
tory to all concerned.

Improyinc Iowa Crop Service.

DEs MONIES, Dec 3l.-Director Sage
Of the Iowa weather and crop service
announces that plans are being formu-
lated by which the Iowa weather serv-
ice will be greatly improved through
the cooperation of the railroads. The
idea is to have the statistics of the
bureau, now collected by special CORE
spondents, aided directly by the train
service, which is confined to state
ment of weather conditions gained from
optical observations and aided only by .
rain gauge. The roads are to be equipped
with barometers, wind and rain gauges
and crop return blanks and will eac.
day make a report of the weather con-
ditions and once weekly will report
crop conditions.

STARS AND STRIPES NOW WAVE OVER
THE ISLAND.

AlfOnso's Flag Is Lowered at the Forts
Replaced by the Stars and stripes.
No Disorder.
HAVANA, Jan. 2.-The sovereignty Of
Cuba passed from Spain to the United
States at noon Sunday. The form of
the transfer was simple, consisting only
OF an exchange of speeches in the salon
OF the palace, the hauling down of the
Spanish flag and the raising in its stead
of the flag of the United States on the
flagstaff Oh the palace roof. Salutes
were fired from the heavy guns of the
forts and the warships before and after
the change Of flags. The raising of the
stars and stripes was greeted with
cheers by the people, who covered the
roofs of the buildings around the palace
and the plaza. No crowd was per-
mitted to gather in the streets in the
vicinity Of the palace to witness the
epoch making function. At 8 o'clock u
guard composed of the second battalion
OF the Tenth infantry marched into the
PlaZe de Armas, under command of
Captain Vanvliet, and formed around
the square. Captain General Castel-
lanos watched them with interest from
the balcony of his apartments as they
entered the square and were stationed
at all the streets approaching the plaza
No one was allowed to enter without q
pass and all the doors of the palace fac
ing the square were ordered to be closed.
Coming of General Lee.
At ll:45 Major General Lee, military
governor of the province of Havana,
with his staff, joined General Brooke.
The latter then crossed the street to
the palace, General Lee on one side of
him and General Chaffee on the other,
followed by the other American gen
erals and the Cuban officers. The Gu
bans wore dark blue uniforms, brown
felt hats and gray gloves and they car
ried machetes.
A flourish OF trumpets greeted the
procession and the Spanish troops pre-
Sented arms as the Americans entered
the palace. The Cubans remained out
side until escorted in by members of
General Brooke's staff, the Spanish
soldiery remaining all the while at "pre.
sent arms" AS soon as all were within
The Spanish troops formed in column of
fours and marched around the right
lide of the plaza to the docks, while the
band Of the Second Illinois volunteers
played the Spanish royal march.
On entering the palace the American
generals went to the salon facing the
plaza. Here were gathered the mem
bers Of the captain generals staff. The
Americans now grouped themselves
near large mirror between the two
central windows, the Spanish staff being
on the right, while on the left were the
American staffs, the Cuban generals
and the correspondents.
Suddenly Captain General Castel-
lanos entered the salon without cere.

Nebraska Legislature convenes.

LINCOLN, Jan. 1.-The two houses of
the legislature convened in their re-
spective halls at the capitol building
at noon yesterday and opened the Goth
session. What the senate had to do
in the way of organizing and prelimi-
nary business was soon accomplished.
The house was slower and did not ad-
journ until some time after the other
branch had finished the day. In the
house Paul T. Clark (Rep), was elected
speaker and the full list of employees
was accepted, as made out by the eau
Gus. In the senate A. R. Talbot (Rep. J,
also OF Lancaster, was made president
pro tenn. The gallery of the house and
all the floor space outside the railing
were crowded with spectators, though
there was nothing unusual in the pro-
ceedings, and everything went as it
was previously announced. There
were fewer spectators in the senate,
where proceedings were even less in
teresting.
The breach in the ranks of the house
Republicans, which threatened to lose
them the speakership, was closed yes
terday morning by the five rebellious
members coming into caucus.
Today the legislature will canvass
the November vote and Thursday the
new state officers will be inaugurated.
The only development in the senatorial
struggle was the announcement of A.
R. Talbot Of Lincoln as candidate.

At the last stroke of 12 the boom of a
gun brought all eyes to the point i'll the
room where stood the captain general
who was talking with an American Of
ficer. Immediately all was silence.
The cs1puan general stepped TO the
left, taking his position directly in
front of his staff. At this moment the
band on the plaza was playing the Span
ish national hymn. AS the guns at
Cabanas fortress ceased firing there
was breathless pause in the salon.
Everybody knew that the American
flag was being raised on the roof of the
palace by Major Butler, and that the
stars and stripes was going up on all
the other official staffs in Havana.
After this second of silence the band
on the plaza played "The Star Span
gled Banner" while the guns of the
fleet and fortresses began to roar out
the national salute of 81 guns.
Immediately Captain General Castel-
lanos handed the manuscript of his
speech to Captain Hart and began to
speak. Addressing himself to Major
General Wade, though he seemed to
look at the floor, General Castellanos
said:
Captain Generals Speech.
GENTLEMEN: In compliance with the
treaty of Paris, the agreement of the
military commissioners of the island
and the orders of my king, at this mo-
ment of noon, Jan. /, 1899, there ceases
in Cuba Spanish sovereignty and be.
gins that of the United States. In con-
sequence, I declare you in command of
the island with the object that you may
exercise it, declaring to you that will
be first in respecting it. Peace having
been established between our respective
governments, promise you to give all
due respect to the United States gov
ernment. and l hope that the good rela-
tions already existing between our
armies will continue until the termina.
ton of the evacuation of those under
my orders in this territory"
Major General Brooke said: II ac.
cept this great trust in behalf of tho
government and president of the United
States, and addressing Captain General
Castellanos) wish you and the gallant
men with you pleasant return to your
native land. May prosperity attend
you and all who are with you"
Generals Brooke and Castellanos then
shook hands, after which General Cas-
tellanos and staff retired from. the
throne room.
Generals Brooke and Chaffee, with
others, then stepped upon the balcony
and looked down upon the plaza. A
big American flag flying over the ar
senal was in full view and further away
the stars and stripes could be seen over
Cabanas fortress. Meanwhile the Off
cials OF Spain were saying farewell to
their nations seat of power in the new
world. Turning to his officers, General
Castellanos said, with tears in his eyes:
Gentlemen, have been in more bat
ties than have hairs on my head and
my self-possession has never failed me
until today. Adieu, gentlemen, adieu. "
