FEMALE POISONER
BECOMES INSANE

OMAHA, Aug. pa special to the Bee
from Hastings, Neb., says: Word comes
to Hastings that Miss Viola Horlocker,
who is resting under a $4,000 bond charged
with having attempted to take the life Of
Mrs. Charles F. Morey by sending her a
box of poisoned candy on April 10 last, is
now in an insane asylum at Jacksonville,
III. About two months ago Miss Horlock-
er went to New York City TO visit her sis
thought at that time She would not re-
turn to Hastings to attend the continual
ton of her hearing, which was to come up
during the equity term Of the District

of the District Court in December. It is
the general feeling here that Miss Hor-
locker will be properly adjudged insane.
and this celebrated case will thus be
brought to a close.

DELEGATES WILL
FIGHT UNIT RULE
REPUBLICANS ARE NOT OF ONE
ACCORD.
Chairman Dodge's Plan May Give
Rise to Trouble in the
Convention.

The adoption of the unit rule on Satur-
day night by the delegates Of the Central
Republican League has caused more dis
cussion than any other occurrence in local
politics for some time past. Although the
rule was adopted as the plan of procedure
for the coming convention it was done
only after a hard fight and much hot dis
cussion. There was a strong element in
the caucus in favor of permitting all fac
tons of the party to name the County
Committeeman in the districts in which
they won out and it is likely that they
will combine with the Kelly and Crimmins
delegation on that point when they get
together on Wednesday.
Charlie Maggie of the Thirty-sixth led
the fight against Mr.. Dodge's resolution
to adopt the unit, and his delegation bolt
ed the caucus when It was adopted. Maggie
said yesterday that he was voicing the
opinions of many other delegates in the
hall and that they had not finished the
fight yet. He denied that he was working
in the interests of Kelly and Crimmins,
but said that If the unit were allowed to
prevail and the bosses were robbed of the
representation they had won the party
would lose just that many votes at the
election. Mr. Dodge. on the other hand,
says the adoption of his resolution was
and that there is little danger of losing
their voting strength, as they will have
TO openly desert the party to do any
harm.
The candidate crop is growing One Of
the most. prominent of recent announce
ments is that of Edward Head, the School
Director, who is out for the nomination
for Sheriff. Mr.. Head was promised the
nomination last year, but for political
reasons withdrew: He is a prominent
Eagle and Native Son and controls a
solid delegation from the Thirty-seventh
He is confident that he will be awarded
the place he seeks on the ticket.
Supervisor Byington, another Native
Son, will shortly announce his candidacy
for District Attorney on the Democratic
ticket, and eX-Food Inspector James
Dockery IS hard at work in his fight for
Sheriff Martins chair.

"REBIRTH OF THE SOUL.v
DR.. J. A. Anderson Gives an Interest
ing Lecture at the Academy
of Sciences Hall.

DR.. Jerome A. Anderson gave a most
interesting lecture on the reincarnation OF
the soul at the hall of Academy OF
Sciences last evening. The speaker
treatment of the subject was mastery
In part, he said:
Philosophy demands reason for existence
and this reincarnation satisfies by showing
that the soul is evolving by means Of repeated
ly returning to earth into god-like being and
one worthy OF and fitted for Immortality This
world would be but a chaos If the soul came
here but once and the happy accident of
death a few minutes after birth assured eter-
nal happiness while for one who struggled
through long life of honest endeavor eternal
suffering is dealt out because of some doubtful
ethical failure.
The soul is a conscious unit and conserves
its own experiences; eternally broadening and
widening its character through repeated re-
birth until 1t at last becomes god-like, and the
necessity for reincarnation ceases. 1t is diff
fering degrees of evolution which make diff
fering grades of character, for the progress OF
any soul depends upon its exertions
Genius, the infn'- differences In capacity
which we see in men. are but the result of the
exertions Of the soul in past lives, and are due
to neither favoritism nor accident.
