COUNTY DOESN'T WANT HIM
Man with One Leg Comes Back After
Being Sent 20 His
Relatives.

Any one desiring to assume the care and
custody OF a man with one leg, bad health
and a fierce temper can learn something to
his advantage by addressing the commits
sioners of Douglas county, Nebraska. In
cidentally he can save the city Jail GUS
todlans much annoyance and J. Henry Oest
OF the county poor farm much anxiety.
At yesterdays meeting OF the board
Commissioner Connolly, as chairman OF the
charity work. informed the board that John
Temperly had returned to Omaha, and that
such return is no blessing. He further
said that Temperly is in the city jail, that
the police are anxious TO be rid OF him, but
that Superintendent Oest OF the county
hospital doesn't want him II there is any
way to avoid it, Oest has stated. Connolly
said, that Temperly is about as much OF a
terror as a one-legged man possibly could
be, and that wherever a few are gathered
together in his presence, It is a safe bet
there will be fight. Temperly, 1t is told
carries a crutch, and having started trouble
he is, with its aid, usually able TO nnish
his undertaking to his own satisfaction. but

to the material damage OF the other parties
and the Generalization OF the institution
within which he is staying.
Connolly considers the case particularly
aggravating in view of the fact that 1t was
only few weeks ago that Temperly was
given, at his own request. transportation
to st. Louis. where he has relatives. Why
he should now return to Douglas county
where he has no relatives and where any
friends he may have are dlscreetly con-
cealing themselves in the tall grass while
the county cares for him, is a mystery TO
the board. Connolly tried to get his fellow
members to decide yesterday whether TO
oblige oest to take the man in again or
whether to give him transportation and
compel him to use 1t. but all remained muto
and finally Harte cut In with other busi-
ness. leaving Mr. Temperly and his temper
open to speculation.

sTUBBENDoRF NOT AFTER 1T
SAYS He Does Not Want to Remain
Chairman of the Committee or
the Board of Education.

Fred stubbendorf, member of the Board
Of Education, has requested The Bee to
state that he does not wish to continue as
chairman OF the committee on buildings and
property. as has been reported, and that In
the reorganization Of the board he will de-
cline to accept such appointment should 1t
be rrofiered. He feels that the duties OF
the position, II conscientiously performed,
require more time than he can take from
his private affairs and he would prefer to
be relieved.
This statement is called forth by the fact
that in the current gossip in regard to the
reorganization OF the board it had been
intlmated that Mr.. Stubbendorf, who is one
of the old members of the body who will
hold over for the next year, had declined
to be considered in connection with the
presidency for the reason that he wished
TO continue as chairman Of the committee
on buildings and property.

BREAKERS LEAVE THE SHOPS

Union Pacific strikers report that forty

reason that others left, because piece work
had been forced upon them. It seems that
this system is as unpopular with the
strike breakers as with the strikers. The
former. as we'll as the latter, declare that
a fair days pay cannot be earned under
the system.
The constant exodus Of these shopmen is
having stimulating effect upon the strik-
ers' They feel that the company will soon
exhaust its resources in importing men and
that since these are leaving in such large
numbers its shops will soon become de-
populated. which will mean that a settle

From sister missionaries.

III tue mluSJ OF MS QlsCOuTSet WHICH IOl-
lowed the scripture reading, Rev. Anderson
read the following telegram from Miss
Mary Burdette of the Missionary Training
school OF Chicago:
God be with the church as 1t buries our
sister. We are praying and hoping"
Rev. Anderson said in part: Anything
like formal discourse or sermon is singu-
larly out Of place when we come together
to bury our dead and I seldom attempt it.
Silence at such time is more appropriate
and more expressive. We have fallen into
the hands of God on an occasion of this
kind and God reserves the verdict, and the
verdict of man Is Of no avail. Gods YER
dict is not based on outside falls and strug-
giles, but on the inside battles, which take
place in our own souls and of which man
has no knowledge. So 1t is best to leave
the dead and their destiny in the hands of
God. We are in no mood for moralizing
around the bier Of the dead, therefore
shall be mercifully brief.
Some will say that 1t is a serious mis-
take to hold a public service in this in
stance and that 1t will be interpreted as a
condoning Of the terrible wrong which has
been done and the cruel blow given our
common Christianity by a sin so unspeaka-
bly, sacreligious and devilish. Some of my
own brethren in the ministry even pro-
tested to me against this public service,
but take an opposite view. came here
on my own responsibility, and what 1 say,
say from my own opinions
'If none but saints we're buried from a
church, then the church would witness no
burial service. I cannot believe that the
life which has just ended under a cloud
has not left something of a blessing be-
hind it. We have no right to assume that
she has been living in hypocrisy, nor have
we a right to assume that her act was
one of selfshness. / love to think of the
good she has done, Of the sunshine she
has brought into the homes of the affiicted;
love to think of her as she went about
