A SENSATIONAL CASE.
Keeper of City Cemetarv tc be Tried Before
the Mayor.

A sensational case comes up in the
Mayors court this morning. Keeper of
the City Cemetery Richardson is charged
with allowing bodies to be inferred with
out a permit from the clerk of the city
Board Of Health. An incident which oc-
CURED last month is the casus belli. An
inmate of the Criminal Insane Depart
ment of the States Prison died, and DR..
Rogers made out the death certificate
and gave it to Mr.. John w. Brown, un-
dertaker. 1t is claimed that Health
officer Sale was not at his desk when
the certificate was taken to his office, so
the body was buried without a permit
being issued, delay being impossible. 1t
is said that there is nothing unusual in
this as verbal permits have been often
given.
Mr.. Sale says that all he knows of the
incident is that he found the certificate
on his desk after the burial For burial
without a permit the penalty is $40 fine
and costs.
Mr.. Richardson will be represented by
Col. T. M. Argo at the trial this morning
and the outlook is that it will be ques-
ton as to whether Mr.. Richardson or
Mr.. Sale is in fault in the matter.

Bill Appropriating Mstricuiation Fees
Died in the House.


LINCOLN, Neb., Sept. 21.-The State
Board of Education met at the office
of Superintendent Fowler. Messrs.
Stuefer and West were absent. Rev.
Luther p. Ludden, the newly chosen
member, was present for the first time.
Principal w. C. Clark of the State
Normal school presented a report Of
the affairs of the school for a year.
He said that the new year opened
with the school in better condition
than ever. He called the attention of
the board to the failure of the legis
lature to appropriate the matricula-
tion fees to the use of the library
fund. The fees amount to between
81, 900 and $1,000, and the attorney
general says that they cannot be used
without action by the legislature be-
Ing taken. The bill appropriating the
money died in the house through an
error which was not discovered until
recently Before Mr.. Clark understood
the situation he had incurred a debt
Of 5000. The board took no action
and the claimants will have to wait.
The board will endeavor to raise
funds to supply the deficiency.

and the necessity for removing the

GROCERs GET TOGETHER
Nebraska Organization Completed and

OhBcers for Engsuing Year Chosen.
OMAHA, Neb., Sept. 23.-The Ne
braska Retail Grocers' association has
completed it's organization and the $50
members who have subscribed to the
constitution and bylaws have joined
hands for the purpose of mutual pro-
lection and the advancement of their
interests. A campaign will be inaug-
uateG until all of the grocers of the
state are induced to become members.
The organization was perfected at the
session yesterday afternoon, when the
following officers were elected:
President, ]. B. Cunningham, Lin
coin; vice president, o. c. Thompson,
Blair; secretary, II. Fischer, Omaha;
treasurer F. A. Miller, Beatrice.
The next meeting place will be at
Lincoln, during September, 1902, the
exact date to be fixed by the executive
committee that will be named by the
president at a later date.
Exemptions were handled In an ex-
haustive manner, and the position
was taken that the deadbeat should be
helped to become honest by the pass
age of laws making it possible to col
lect pay for goods sold. Hundreds of
men, aided by the present collection
laws, the grocers claimed, are enabled
to cheat and defrand their grocers,
and there is no recourse.
The speaker held that the present
exemption laws are unfair to the
single man, as they permit the taking
of even his clothing if it can be found
off his back, while his more fortunate
associate VINO is married can run bills,
and there is no way of reaching him.
