Comes Up in the Police
Court.

Thomas Moss was bound over to the dis
trict court again yesterday from the
police court on a charge OF having uttered
a forged check. The complainant in this
case was Saloonist Weisner, 1901 Webster

stand and swore that he had cashed the
worthless check for Moss, who had en-
dorsed 1t in the presencs Of the saloon
keeper and the bartender as George SUIT
ton" and claimed that he was In the en-
ploy of Eastbrook g Co., upon whose ac-
count the check vas drawn. He positively
identified Moss as the person who rendered

TO DRAW NEW STATE LINE
County Surveyor Will Attempt to Divide
Nebraska and Iowa.
LAND TRADE MAY Be RESULT OF SURVEY
Iowa May swap Peninsula on West
side Of River for strip Of Ne
braska Territory on
other side.

The FRANKS Of the Big Muddy have made
a necessary that County Surveyor Edquist

struments and find out where Nebraska
ceases and Iowa begins. This action is the
result OF an alleged offenders escaping ar
crest last summer by the Pottawettamie
county authorities on the ground that he
wasn't within their Jurisdiction, and its
result may be a swap OF land there for the
Iowa land this side Of the river occupied
by a part OF East Omaha. Surveyor Edquist
says:
ain 1854 Iowa traced the meander line OF
the Missouri and fixed the states western
Boundary accordingly. Two years later Ne
braska was sectionized, the meander line
OF the river as 1t then ran was traced and
the states eastern boundary fixed. During
those two years the whimsical old river had
been shifting itself, and the result was that
the two lines overlapped each other by a
quarter to a half a mile. In the survey next
week / shall seek the course equl-distant
from each line and report that as the COR
rect boundary line. This line will be SO
far east Of the rivers present channel that
It will leave between one and two square
miles OF Nebraska territory on the east or
Iowa side of the river. Such a condition Is
. bad one. as shown last summer when the
man wanted by the Iowa officers escaped
them because on this Nebraska soil.
states May Trade Land.
"As / understand It, the plan will be to
give Iowa this strip in exchange for the
East Omaha section Of one square mile
which Is now held to be Iowa land, although
on the Nebraska side OF the river. This
latter complication is but another result
OF the rivers habit of shifting positions.
The surveys Of January, 1875, July. 1876, and
January, 1877, recorded on a map in the
city engineers ONCE, show how the stream
kept narrowing the neck of the lows

Los Alamos, Cal, July 31.-The most
severe earthquake in the history of TINS
place occurred at 12O this morning. 1t
IS impossible as yet to estimate the
Damage, but it is very heavy. No lives
have been lost, tho there were many
marrow escapes. Every brick building
in town was destroyed or badly
wrecked. In nearly every house Win
dows were broken. The Presbyterian
church, a large brick structure, was
razed to the ground. A similar fate be-
dell the general store of w. 5. Wlcken-
ben The shock seemed to have spiral
motion. Goods We're hurled from shelves
In stores and piled in the middle OF the
rooms. Not a chimney is standing IN
town. All brick walls are badly dam
aged but frame structures generally
escaped serious injury. The whole town
was aroused. People fled from their
houses to the streets in panic. Ihere
have been several light shocks since
July %. Los Alamos is town OF about
GOO inhabitants in Santa Barbara
county, about 100 miles north of Los
Angeles
Between Z and this morning there
were three distinct shocks, adding to
the terror of the inhabitants. many of
who mare seaving town. President
Wheeler of the University of California
was communicated with by telephone
and he advised the people to quit the
town as soon as possible. The advice
was acted upon Immediately. The
financial loss to this town is estimated
at 100000. Reports from other sec
tions of the valley will probably in
crease this amount by many thousands.

Oprose Merit system.

Washington, July S1.-Clerks of the
navy department are on the verge OF
decentralization on account of a decision
hv Mr.. Moody before he left Washing
ton establishing a rule that the salaries
of clerks shall be governed by the
amount of work which passes over their
desks and that their compensation shall
not in amy way be controlled by the
amount of influence back of them. This
has resulted in a reduction in the sala-
i'ies of numerous clerks. including Lieu
tenant Samuel III. Gibson, a retired ma
rine corps officer, who has been receiN-
ing $1,400 year and who has been re-
d,lced to a 81, 200 clerllship. Mr. Moody
does not take kindly to the fact that re-
tired officers of the navy and marine
crops occupy government clerkships.
especially if they have been retired for
incapacty, as they have an opportunity
to resume active work on active pay.
Lieutenant Gibson is a brother of the
late Senator Gibson. of Maryland, who
obtained the appointment.
