OMAHA, Neb., May 9-Psintings in

suit in Justice Bryant's office in Coun-
Gil Bluffs Rev. j. r Speck OF the
Christian church is the artist of no
lnconsiderable talent. He Is remem-
bered III Omaha chiefly for the part he
took IN the campaign IN 1896, when he
was AL eloquent speaker III Nebraska
in support 0r William j. Bryan.
Mrs. Anna Speck, his wife, Is also
an artlst and her ideas of her hus-
bands art are that it is not quite APP
prOpriate for pastor. So unen the
collection of a half-dozen paintings,
intending "Venus," Psyche at the
Pool" and other we'll known subjects
were attached by creditors, she hastily
began the work of clothing the naked
forms. Mrs. Speck is considered by
many the real artist Of the family and
and she succeeded in modifying her
husbands work so we'll that considera-
bly, sympathy has been aroused in the
community for the pair III financial
straits. A proposition is being made
to raise a fund for the purpose of re-
deeming the works of art, which are
believed bv critics to be the product
of much genius.
ls-v. Mr. Speck said today: 81 see
no harm in the preacher painting the
most beautiful of Gods creations in
nature. There is nothing to he
ashamed OF in that. Artists In the
studio will tell YOU the same thing.
The human form is the most magnifi-
cent of natures masterpieces.

WANTS $4,000 DAMAGES
Administrator of Estate of
Samuel Coffman Brings
Suit Against the
NOrthwastern

The suit of Richard Hayes, adj
ministrator of the estate of Sam
uel } Coffman, deceased, against
the Chicago & Northwestern
Railway company has been re-
moved from the district court OF
Harrison county to the federal
court. 1t was fed in the clerks
Office yesterday.
1t Is personal damage suit as
u result of the accident at Avenue
p and the railroad crossing Feb
ruary 5, in which Isaac Smith,
Jimmey Smith and Joseph Golf
man were killed. The petition
asks for $4,000 alleged damages,
it being claimed that Coffman was
able to earn $3.50 per year and
that he would have lived thirty
five years longer had it not been
for the accident.
The petition alleges that the &C.
cident was due TO negligence on
the part of the railroad, it being
claimed thatno warming was given
of the approaching train by means
of the bell or the whistle and that
the route at that place was SO
lined with trees that the view of
the tracks was obstructed.
The coroner's jury which was
called on the case the next day
after the accident occurred re-
turned a verdict exoneratiDg the
railroad company from any blame.
The suits which were to have been
brought for the death of Isaac
and Jimmey Smith have been
compromised. -Nonpareil.
Woodbine Chronicle says: Last
week we noticed an article in a
Dunlap paper claiming that some
of the ladies of that town had at
temped to "Nationize" the express
office there. We are requested by
q representative of the Dunlap W
G. I. o., to say that the article re.
ferred to was mistaken asser.
ton, and that no attempt was made
to interfere with the office named
nor did the express officers lock
the ladies out. they merely went
down to the office and looked
around on the numerous boxes
supposed to contain liquor for the
thirsty denizens of that vicininity
and having satisfied their curiosi
ty, departed without comment OF
violence of any kind.

The time Of year has now return
ed when three men and twice as
many horses, with so called road
machine play at making roads. In
many cases rainy spell follows,
it only makes old mud holes worse
and forms new ones. If the wealth
or is dry, the road work (?) is
blown away as dust. Is it not time
that systematic course was adop-
ted to make the roads as good as
dirt roads can be made? Why not
begin now to drain so that all wa
ter may be carried away as soon ae
it falls? Don't let it stand either
by the road side or on it.-Logan

Chinese Roads.

The Chinese road Is private property.
q strip taken from somebody's land.
This Is done much against the will Of
the owner, since he not only loses the
use of It, but also still has to pay taxes
on II.
One consequence Is that 1t Is wide
enough for only one vehicle, and carts
can pass one another only by trespass-
Ing on the cultivated land. To prevent
this the farmers dig deep bitches by
the roadside. AS the surface wears
away and the dust blows Off it gradu-
ally grows lower, and after awhile it
becomes a drain for the surrounding
fields. A current forms In the rainy
season, which still further hollows 1t
out, and thus has arisen the proverb
that a road a thousand years old be-
comes a river.

Develop the Country.

am heartily in sympathy with the
good roads movement do not know
Of anything that will more materially
benefit the country. Good roads will
create base Of supplies for the towns
and cities. They will redu.e the cost
Of marketing the produce Of the farm
and thus turn thousands of dollars
into the channels OF trade every year
that are now spent for wear and tear
Of teams and vehicles. and the loss Of
time In getting to and from market.
BY reducing the cost Of marketing they
will enable the farmers to diversity
their crops, thus developing the coun-
try along all lines. No country can be
thoroughly prosperous without good
public highways.-Rev.J ]. B. Lawrence.
