KNEW THEM AS MAN AND WIFE
Witnesses for the state Testify in the
Baxter BiGnmy Cnsc-Another
Days Hearing.

The preliminary trial of Clarence Eugene
Baxter on a charge of bigamy is still occu-
plying the attention of the police court sew
eral hours every day. Tuesday Mrs. Lille
e. Gray, who had employed the prosecuting
witness as a domestic in her household prior
to her alliance with Baxter, was on the
stand testifying as to the relations existing
between the defendant and wife No. /. She
had visited them often while they were liv-
ing together on South Thirty-third street,
and always considered them man and wife.
Baxter, she said, had called upon wife No.
l several times after he married wife No. ,.
One of these visits was as recent as De-
cember last. On that occasion he said he
was sorry of the step he had taken.
Jesse Blake, a carpenter and joiner, was
another witness for the state. He had been
very friendly with Mr.. and Mrs. Baker, alias
Baxter, and had often dined with them at
their house, They had seemed happy and
had treated each other affectionately.
The question of race was not touched upon
Tuesday. Neither of the wives was in the
court room. The case will probably be con-
cluded today.

THE SPIRIT OF THE WEST
W. II. LishtOn Lectures on the sub
jcct Ecfore the Omaha
Woman's Club.

w. X. Lighton, "A young western writer
who has achieved a considerable amount of
fame during his residence in Omaha, made
a arewell appearance in public Tuesday
afternoon before the department of ethics
of the Woman's club. A majority of the
600 members Of the club were present at the
First Congregational church with many OF
their friends. Mr.. Lighton leaves within a
few days to accept an editorial position in
the east.
The subject OF the lecture was The
Spirit of the West" which Mr.. Lighton has
so successfully embodied in his book and
magazine articles. 1t is the theory of the
author that writer's should select for theme
and c~oloring a location with which they
have an intimate acquaintance. With this
in mind LightOn woye romance into the
Kansas prairles in The Sons OF Strength %
and has won commendation for the abso-
lutte truth OF his western portrayals. Mr..
Lighton's early youth was spent in Kansas,
and his familiarity with places ana people
there is a hirthright. Using the material
which came nearest TO his hand, the Spirit
of the West" MIR. Lighton has won pro-
nounced success and is now entering upon
a field of broader opportunities.

IS THIS THE JACK NORTON
Shooting of "a Man by TINT Name at
Hot Springs Excites Inter-
est in Omaha.

News that a man going by the name of Gus
Norton had been shot and killed in Hot
Springs, Ark, is causing considerable com
ment in Omaha among those who had known
Jack Norton, formerly keeper of a no
torious resort on South Fourteenth street,
as there was a general disposition to be-
lieve them one and the same person. a
newspaper containing an account of the
shooting was received by o.. F.. Asmussen,
now in charge of Ed Rothery's saloon, and
this described the dead man as about 80
years cid, Of powerful build and dark COM
plexion. 1t added that The is said to hail
from Kansas City"
The fact that at last accounts Jack Nor
ton was running a road house just beyond
the limits of Kansas City gives color tC
the theory that he was the victim OF the
Hot Springs assassin, but Kansas City was
called up by telephone and the answer re-
ceived was that lack Norton was at his
road house, sound and well.
Other facts indicating that the man shot
in Hot Springs was not the Omaha charac.
ter are that the Omaha man is light com.
plexioned, while the dead man Is described
as dark. Although he was in the sure-thing
business, as was the case with the Ho'
Springs man, his relatives live in Chicago
and not in Oakland, Cal.
The Hot Springs paper says: Zone Of
his brothers lives in Oakland, Cal, and
he was telegraphed last night
The shooting occurred in the barroom oil
the Arkansaw club, while the apartment
was crowded Five shots were fired, only
one of which took effect. Norton died within
an hour. A man named j. b. Richards ha!
been arrested, charged with the crime.
The Jack Norton known here formerly
ran a disreputable saloon at PIG South Four
teenth street. owned by Walter Noise. !
was the resort of thieves, pickpockets anC
all manner of crooks. About a year ago h
sold out his interests here and in com
pany with Jack Haskell, the base ball UNI
pire, went to Kansas City, where the!
started a road house.

RECEIVED WITH OPEN ARMS
Councilman STUNT Welcomed to Membership
in Populist Peter Cooper Club.
CLUB LET'S DOWN THE BARS TO OTHERS
CounciIman Lobcck is Also Enrolled
Among Mcmbcrs-Troublc Brew
ing for First ward Democrats
Through Fusion

Councilman STUNT has broken into the
ranks Of the populists. In spite of its rigid
adherence hitherto to the requirement that
an applicant for membership must be a
member OF the populist party, in spite OF the
fact that STUNT has claimed within the last
two weeks that has been n republican for
thirty-four years, and in spite Of the fact
that STUNTS name is now upon the mem-
bership rolls of the Patriotic CD league, the
Peter Cooper club Tuesday evening admitted
the ambitious First warder to membership
by a vote that was practically unanimous.
The membership committee felt unwilling
to assume the responsibility of deciding as
TO STUNTS right to enter and accordingly
reported his name back to the club without
recommendation. L. f. Morearty. Martin
Mcclure, Jailer Jones, DR.. Peabody and
others were anxious to have the candidate
admitted. a. w. Tidd wanted him to be
required to burn his bridges behind him,
so that he could not swing back into the
republican party, as he did on a former oc-
casion. He wanted STUNT to resign from
the Patriotic CD league and pay back some
hundreds Of dollars of funds he was re-
ported to possess belonging to the repub-
lican city committee, which it was claimed
STUNT has kept for seven or eight years.
l.. j. Quinby moved that the name lie over
for a week, as it had been represented to
him by members of labor organizations
that STUNT had never lest an opportunity
to show his opposition to organized labor.
He wanted to hear from STUNT on that sub
ject, but the candidate from the First ward
was not present. Morearty stormed in de-
nunciation of those who were opposing
Stunts admission and L.. V. Guye insisted
that STUNT had aided him in his efforts to
secure the passage of the barber regula-
tions.
LObeck NOuches for STUNT.
Councilman Lobeck was present and read
lily gave STUNT a good character, even go
ing so far as to say that STUNT was a hi
metallist. AS a result of the heated dis
cussion the moticu to defer was defeated
by a vote OF about twenty-five to two, and
STUNT was admitted by the same afirma-
tive vote, the DIRECTORS refusing to vote at
all.
This action CT the Peter Cooper club may
be taken to mean that fusion is not going
to be accomplished in the coming city cleo
ton without great embarrassment to the
democrats of the First ward.
Previous to the taking OF the vote on
the STUNT proposition the applications of
Harry Minds and Ed Lindley for mem
bership were referred back to the commit
tee for further investigation, but as soon
as the STUNT matter was disposed of the ref
erence back was reconsldered and the can
didates admitted. There was a deluge OF
applications. Councilman Lobeck and five
others we're admitted under a suspension
of the rules.
On motion of A.. w. Tidd it was decided
to invite all citizens of the state processing
to be Abraham Lincoln republicans to be-
come members of the club.

campaign in the city one can see the gath

delegation to the populist state convention.

friends that he would like to place in action

At the meeting of the Fifth ward Bryan
club Monday President Cosgrove intimated
that many errors had been found in the rolls
Of democratic voters copied from the regis
tration lists for use of the democrats in
their primaries, and as most of the errors,
he said, appeared to be such as would en-
barrass the enemies of Chairman Noise
when they should present themselves to
vote at the primaries, he intimated that the
discrepancies might be something more than
simple mistakes. 1t appeared that in the
Fifth ward alone the names of sixteen demo-
Gratis, registered as such, had been omitted,
twelve enormously entered on the list and
twenty-nine either misspelled, given the
wrong initials or located at the wrong num-
bers. 1t was stated that forty similar errors
have been discovered in the First ward list.
The copying was done by Joe Butler and j.
A. Fitzpatrick. Some Of the errors are
doubtless due to the miserable penmanship
in many of the registration books.
