STRICKLER GOES TO NEW YORK
Well Known Attorney Accepts Posi-
tiOn with Big Mining
Corporation,

Attorney Virgil o. Strickler IL to leave
Omaha and take up his residence in New
York City. How soon, Mr.. Strlckler
himself doesn't know, but as
quickly as he can adjust his busi-
ness matters here, which will probably
be this week. He will abandon his law
practice in Nebraska courts entirely, but
perhaps will not be able to dispose en-
tirely of his other interests so soon, and
anticipates the necessity, and the pleasure,
of occasional visits here.
Mr.. Stricklers plans are Of recent making
and the result of a three months visit
down east in the interest of western mines
he either owns or has interests in. The
mines needed heavier financing than the
owners could give and Mr.. Strickler went
after 1t. He not only got it, but he got
himself a fat salaried position as counsel
for the corporation that will assume con-
troll. This corporation is made up of sew
eral men who are at the heads Of other
enterprises and have Joined in promoting
a 10000, 900 capitalization for the develop
ment of these mines and some similar west
ern undertakings. Because of his extern
sive acquaintance in the west and for other
obvious reasons Mr.. Strickler was offered
not only a place as counsel, but also o
seat on the DOdru OF ulTeCIOfb, anu nab aC>
cepted both.
His removal to the east will take from
Nebraska a simon-pure specimen of the
genus hustler" When he came up from
Luray. Va; in 1887 to practice law in Ne,
braska he boasted that he had a university
education and $45 as his total assets. Since
then he has been somebody's attorney in
each of more than 700 lawsuits, and made
money on real estate and business deals
when older men we're losing, until he is
pretty well fixed"
And between times he found opportunity
to write the Australian ballot law in the
form Nebraska still uses, to draft numer-
Gus other important legislative measures
and to figure personally in politics. He has
dropped the politics because 1t doesn't
pay" but out through this state and q
good many others, people still remember
the time Strickler took a carload of en-
thusiasts east to attend the birth of the
populist party; how he subsequently
landed" the national convention for Omaha
and how, still later, as an executive CON-
mitteeman OF the populist national COM
mittee. he campaigned with Jim" Weaver
while his own chances Of election as states
attorney went gllmmering.
II am leaving Omaha and this state with
considerable regret" Mr. strickler said
yesterday, but l feel that can do better
where 1 am going and so am forced to say
a reluctant but most cordial goodbye"

Cablegram-Special Telegram 1.-The drama,
"The Night Refuge" by Maxine Gorky,
lighted such enthusiasm in a Moscow woman
that 1t entangled her in an adventure, from
which the police court alone extricated her.
She saw a man she supposed was the
famous author promenading the streets
with his spouse, rushed to the unsuspecting
man and ssluted him with warm kiss, ex-
claiming:
Great Maxine Gorky, let me kiss the
author OF the touching drama, The Night
Refuge"
The worthy citizen was not averse to
being taken for Maxine Gorky in this
enthusiastic fashion, but his wife was, and
proceeded to express her dissatisfaction by
an energetic use of her umbrella, where
upon the three persons were invited to tho
police court to explain themselves. There
the enthusiast learned her error and con-
sented to take back her kiss. The good
man forgave her, but his wife didn't.
