REMOVAL BILL PASSES SENATE
Only Five Votes Against the Measure
to Thirty-Nine in Its
Favor.

PIERRE, S. d., Jan. 10.-(Special Tele-
gram.)-The senate passed it's first bill to-
day and the same is now in the house. The
measure was one allowing terms Of circuit
court in other towns than county seats,
which is aimed especially at Charles Mix
county.
Valued policy insurance bills we're intro
duced in both house and senate and in the
senate an amendment to the tax law pro-
viding for the assessment OF the capital
stock OF banks.
The senate, in executive session, con-
1rmed the following appointments by the
governor: Mine inspector, Thomas Greg
DRY, Lawrence; adjutant general, S. J. Colk-
lin, Clark; members of the Board of Re-
gents, r. NJ. slocum, Campbell, F. A. Spaf-
ford, A. w. Burt OF Beadle; public exam
liner. e. E.. Hemingway OF Brookings; food
and dairy commissioner. C. P. Sherwood of
Kingsbury; veterinarian, ]. p. Foster of
Walworth.
The house took up the Weleh- Hanna con-
test case and the majority report was
adopted and Mr.. Welch sworn in.
Bills we're introduced to provide for horse
inspection: to appropriate $4,000 for an
armory at the State university, and fixing
the compensation of boards Of commission
ers at S. per day.
The contest case in the house called out
the first flights of oratory of the session,
Bromley and Rodge speaking for the ma
jority report and Gross for the minority.
Some time next week the anti-foot ball
bill will be introduced, the women looking
after this as they are their equal suffrage
measure, which may be introduced as a
straight amendment, and falling in this
they will test the initiative.
The capitol removal bill passed the SEN
ate this afternoon by a vote OF 80 to 8.

sues city Cor Heavy Damages.

Elizabeth Van Brocklin, through her at
torney, Julius S. Cooley, has nled in the
circuit court a petition against the city of
Omaha, asking for $15,50 damages. She
states that she is a resident of Missouri,
which would bring the case within the
jurisdiction of the federal court. The petit
ton says that the plaintiff slipped and fell
on the crossing at Eleventh and Harvey
streets owing to the icy condition OF the
walk, and as a result she suffered a broken
shoulder bone, broken nose and a number
of other injuries. Mrs. Van Brocklin IL the
widow of Colonel Martin Van Brocklin,
consulting civil engineer. While the colonel
was building the great Sydney bridge at
Sydney, Australia, he met and married her.
She was a daughter of the governor gen.
eral of New South Wales, Australia. The
colonel perhaps gained his greatest dis
tinction as a civil engineer when he con-
structed the Peru railroad through the
Andes mountains. Later he was consulting
engineer with Eads at the building of the
Eads bridge at st. Louis and the Missis-
sippi jetties in Louisiana, He also had
charge of the construction of the elevated
railway in New York City and served as
general manager Of that great concern for
seven years.

BASED ON THOMPSON'S VOTE
Democratic City Committee Decides on
Ward Representation in Convention.
PRIMARIES TO Be HELD IN FEBRUARY
Difference of Opinion Exists Only a,
to standard to BE Adopted In
ApportioninE Delegates to
the Convention.

It took the democratic city central com
mittee Just fifteen minutes in executive ses-
sion last night to change the method OF
apportionment Of delegates to the city con-
~vention from the arbitrary number Of nine
from each ward to a number per ward
based upon the last vote cast, that for w.
II. Thompson. candidate for governor.
The setting Of the date for the primaries
as February IL and Of the convention for
February IL was a process equally brief, and
after some additional business Of a more
routine type had been transacted, the COM
mittee adjourned. Washington hall was the
place set for the convention. The executive
committee was empowered to change the
dates.
The apportionment matter failed to bring
forth the fight that had been expected.
Twenty-Five OF the twenty-nine members
Of the committee we're present or repre-
sented by proxy. An early vote showed that
fifteen Of the twenty-five favored a change
from the arbitrary system TO the appor-
tionment by vote. Following this came a
vote as to whether the apportionment
should be on the vote for Thompson for gov
ernor in 1902, or that for Poppleton for
mayor in 1900. Fifteen stood for the
Thompson gauge, ten for the Popplton.
ApportIOnment Decided On.
AS It was agreed TO give one delegate for
each seventy-fve votes or fraction thereof
cast, the new system allows 115 delegates
at the convention. while formerly there
have been but eighty-one. The apportlon-
ment by wards is:

LOST SIGHT OF
A Most Important Aid to Education

An important point often overlooked by
parents in bringing up children is the use
Of proper food as an aid to education.
Children make wonderful progress when
scientifically fed.
A little woman in East Brentwood, n. H.,
says Of her girlhood days, II was never very
rugged and cold lunches and hearty even
ing meals and improper food soon began to
work serious havoc.
"Then came a period Of self-boarding
while away at college and 1t is now easy to
see where, in the haste to acquire knowl-
edge the true knowledge of proper and
nourishing food was neglected. The result,
as may be imagined. was indigestion, dys-
pepsia and constipation. Then followed a
weary time of dieting and, one after an
other, physicians were consulted, till hope
Of permanent cure was abandoned, Then,
two years after leaving school, / entered a
new home as a bride and having grown
| wiser through experience, l resolved to use
food in accordance with hygienic principles.
This was also necessary as l could not eat
anything at all rich.
1--WE commenced to use Grape-Nuts and
soon became convinced that II was the
most nutritious food we could obtain. |
noticed an immediate Improvement in my
health, my Indigestion became less marked
and eventually left me for good.
1T is now two years that we have eaten
Grape-Nuts regularly, and / was never as
we'll in my life as now. I have gained ten
pounds in weight and can eat, without
causing the slightest distress, the richest
kind Of food as we'll as anyone, the dys-
pepsia is entirely gon and constipation
never troubles me.
This may not interest others, but 1t is
Of great interest 10 US. for il is our hrm
belief that my present good health is due
solely to the constant use of Grape-Nuts
and we feel that We have great reason 10
be thankful to the maker Of such a per-
feet and delicious food" Name given by

CONDEMNED MEN ARE RETIRED
Courts Take Second Hitch at Men
who Killed Man at Albert
City, Iowa.

STORM LAKE. Ia, Jan. 10~.-(Special.) y
The second trial OF Albert Phillips, colored,
and Lewis Brooks, white. for the murder
Of John Sundblad at Albert City, 10 in prog
ress here. The two men had engaged in
the bank robbing business in northwestern
Iowa and were tracked to Albert City. where
they and a third man, who was shot dead,
were surrounded In the depot. The posse
fred upon them and the fire was returned.
Sundblad was the only one Of the posse
killed. The men we're convicted and sem
fenced to hang, but were given a new trial
because the evidence failed to show what
the supreme court would approve as pre-
meditated murder.
1t is regarded as certain that the men will
be convicted and probably of murder in the
FIRST degree, in which case they will be
again sentenced to hang.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL

Few People Know How UsefuI - is In
Preserving Health and Beauty.
Nearly everybody knows that charcoal Il
the safest and most %sfhcisnt disinfectAnt
and purifier in nature. but few realize its
value when taken into the human system
for the same cleansing purpose.
Charcoal is q remedy that the more you
take OF 1t the better; It is not a drug at all,
but simply absorbs the gases and impuri-
ties always present In the stomach and In
t~estines and carries them out Of the system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after smOk-
Ing and drinking or after eating onions and
other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effeetually clears and improves
the complexion. II whitsns the teeth and
further acts as q natural and eminently
safe cathartio.
II AbsOrbs the injurious gases which coll
iect in the stomach and bowels; It disin-
fects the mouth and throat from the po' son
Of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one form OF
another, but probably the best charcoal and
the most for the money is Stuart 5 Al

behind the move, to get an issue of general
bonds, build a sewer or two, erect a city
hall and repair all the paved streets. 1t is
asserted that bonds now can be sold at a
low rate of interest and that the overlap
can be provided for in the same issue, thus
cutting down the interest fund. In this
connection some OF the members OF the
council have been corresponding with cities
Of the same class in other states. In some
instances 1t is found that the FIRE and po-
lice departments are better provided for
and that there are more miles of paved
streets, while the levy is higher. While the
valuation Of South Omaha is sic. 0O0. 900, that

is in debt. From the comparison made,
South omah2 is not considered so badly off
except in that It needs more public i'm
p~rovements, and as the taxpaying public
knows, improvements cost money. Mayor
Koutsky is holding down expenditures to
the lowest notch and expects to show at
the end Of his first year in the executive
chair a big saving as compared with former
administrations. There is likely to be some
opposition to the issuing OF general bonds
for $3.50. 900, but the talk now is the calling
