There was a hustllng and bustllng of the
clans Thursday morning as soon as the
public had learned through The Bee that
the supreme court had declared a register
of deeds must be elected this fail. Regis
ter of Deeds Deuel. was surprised when he
read the decision in The Rec, but caught
his breath quickly and was ready to go on
the ticket.
"I understand that the party committee
will have to make the nomination" said
Mr.. Deuel., and | shall await It's pleasure.
/ No time will be lost in taking the necessary
steps to comply with the supreme courts
ruling"
Mr.. Deuel. will, It is agreed, have no OPP
position on the democratic side, at least no
democrat could be found who had any other
name to suggest.
On the republican side half a dozen men
are being mentioned. Prominent among
them Is b. c. Minor OF the county treas
urer's office, Nj. ]. Greevy, secretary of the
county committee, and Bert Wilcox of
South Omaha. Mr. Greevy is in the atti-
tude of a tentative candidate and is plug
ging along with his work usual. Neither
Mr.. Minor nor Mr.. Wilcox has yet made an
| open declaration OF his candidacy, but their
| friends are at work creating sentiment in
their favor.
The name OF William Coburn was men,

nomination for register of deeds. Mr..
Coburn, himself was inclined to be reticent

committee will renominate Harry Deuel.

Secretary Greevy as soon as the decision
Of the supreme court was known, proceeded
to issue a call for meeting OF the repub-

Saturday afternoon. At that time the
question of nominating a candidate against

Russians Believed to be Caught.

St. Petersburg, March 22.-The alb
sence of any definite news from the
first and third Russian armies in Man
churia is believed here to indicate that
the Japanese turning movement has
been success and that word will soon
arrive of catastrophe which will
overshadow any of the war.
Those who have examined the re-
ports that have reached London during
the last 48 hours from the far east are
certain that within short time word
will arrive that the Russian forces that
are slowly fighting their way north
ward along the line of railway toward
Hardin have been finally cut off by the
Japanese and that they will be COM
PEELED to either give BATTLE or surren-
der.
The japanese official advices, as
published, deal entirely with the fight
that has been participated in by the
rear guard and says nothing about the
fighting along the TANKS and at the
head of the rerteating column. This
secrecy is believed there to indicate
that movements of importance are in
progress and that until they have been
finally carried out all of the news that
will be permitted to filter through will
be devoted to the details of engage
ments arleady reported.

CRUISER LAUNCHED
WARSHIP WASHINGTON met The
WATER AT CAMDED, n. ].
In the Presence of Several Thousand
Spectators and Amid a Chorus of
Steam Whistles, the Warrior Was
Christened by Miss Wilson with Gus
tomary Liquid-Superor Ship.

In the presence of several thousand
spectators and to a chorus to steam
whistles and changing bells, the United
States armored cruiser Washington,
the most powerful of its class yet built
gracefully glided from the ways at the
yard of the New York Shipbuilding Co.,
at 1900 Saturday. AS the new war

assembled multitude wildly cheered
the new champion. Owing to the dis

ment when the Washington was nam
ed. There was an influential delega
ton on hand, however, composed OF
state officials, members of the legisla
ture and the Washington representa-,
tives in congress. The ship was chris
tened by Miss Helen Stewart Wilson
daughter of former United States Sen
ator Wilson of Washington.
With the first movement of the huge
hull Miss Wilson lightly poised the
gayly beribboned bottle of champagne
and as the vessel swept down to meet
the tide she dashed the glass recepta
Gle against the unyielding wall OF
steel, and as the wine flowed down
the ways in foaming rivulets the fair
sponsor said: 81 christen thee Wash
ington."
Pandemonium had broken loose in
the crowd below as well as upon the
stand. Staid matrons as well as giddy
maids were mounting points of want
age in order to see the new vessel
leap into the arms of her native ele
ment. Greeted with welcoming blast
from the shrill threats of several
score of steam whistles, the cruiser
floated majestically out upon the bos
ON of the Delaware, where she soon
was captured by a tug and towed to
one of the shipyard piers, where she
will be completed. She is now in a
more advanced stage of construction
than any vessel ever before launched

MUKDEN VICTORY MOST POTENT.
Is Factor in Shaping History of All
the World,

Now that the full measure Of the
Russian disaster in Manchuria is I'M
derstood, Europe is beginning to take
stock Of the new situation in world
politics by this momentuous conflict.
The battle of Mukden is universally
recognized as factor which must have
inestimable influence in shaping the
history of all great peoples. The
changes which it will impose upon ex-
listing international relationship is re-
ceiving the attention of European
statesmen. They see first that paraly-
sis of Russia in Asia will release Chi
ia, Turkey, Germany and Great Brit
ain from enormous pressure This eff
feet, except in the case of Turkey,
will make for peace and should enable
Europe to make great reductions in
armaments, with corresponding relief
of public burdens.
Pekin will be relieved from Russian
dictation, although perhaps threatened
by other mentors, and Germany will no
longer be threatened by invasion of
both her frontiers. While the Anglo
French entente has much strengthened
the intimate understanding between
Great Britain and France, the United
States will unquestionably become per-
haps the controlling factor in safe
guarding the worlds peace.
Free Russia would undoubtedly aban-
don the mad dream of dominating the
Pacific, but she would certainly con-
centrate her energies to secure more
natural outlet to the Mediterranean.
This means the driving of the sultan
out of Europe. Indications are Abdul
Hamid will not wait for such a crisis.
European diplomacy is anxiously occu-
pied at the present moment with prob
lens of how to prevent him Selling
the opportunity of Russian embarrass-
ment to settle old scores in Macedo-
mia and against Bulgaria.

DROPPED TO Death
two BALLO0NISTS In ACCIDENT
At WALLACE, idaho.
Professor O'DelI and Dell Dare Were
About IT'S Feet High in the Air
When the Old Balloon Ripped In
Two and Aeronauts FeII-Para-
chutes Fail to Work.

wallace, ludllO, MdICu GV.-Il a
double balloon ascension at the city
mark Sunday afternoon the lower parts
of the balloon tore away when the
two aeronauts, Professor O'Dell and
Dell Dare, were between $50 to 200
feet in the air and both were dashed
to the ground. Nearly every bone in
O'Dell's body was broken.
Dare did not sustain a broken bone
but was internally injured and died
soon after. A young boy named Glib
son was caught by the falling balloon
and completely covered. The hot air
burnt him about the face and body be-
fore he could be dragged from under
meath the canvas, but he is not serious
ly injured.
Several hundred people had assem-
bled in various parts of the city to
witness the ascension. AS soon as the
balloon left the ground, to the horror
of the nearby spectators, the lower
part of the bag could be seen ripping
away. Warnings were shouted to the
two unfortunate men but they could
not hear the alarm.
When between $50 and 200 feet high
the two men, seated in separate para
chutes, swung together with a crash
that could be heard for long distance
and at the same time the lower por-
ton tore away and to the horror of
the onlookers the men commenced to
fall. Although their flight took but a
few moments, ODell, who is the more
expert of the two, could be seen at
tempting to force his parachute open,
but on account of the short distance it
would not yield. Both men were close
together and while O'Dell endeavored
to open his parachute he could be OBJ
served holding his companion by the
shoulder in an attempt to save him
if his parachute opened, Dare made
no movement, simply clinging to the
ropes.
Fall Together.
The thud made by the two men
when they fell could be heard for over
block, the ground being indented
where they a1ighted. Both struck the
ground near ore another and at the
same time, both barely grazing the
furnace where the balloon was in
fated. U'Dell fell in a more relaxed
manner and his fall was partially
broken by Dare, which accounts for
his lesser injuries. Dare never re.
gained consciousness.
The balloon tore on account of its
age and the weight of the two men.
1t was the 18th ascension ODell had
made in it. His correct name is L.
NJ. O'Dell.
O'Dell's home is Newmarket, Iowa,
where his mother, Mrs. Mary O'Dell,
resides.
Dare's correct name is V. Middle
kaup. He came to Wallace six
months ago from Bozeman, Mont, and
has been engaged in carpenter work
and photography. His home was at
Lander, Wyoming.

scious, and expresses the belief that he
will ultimately recover. He says this
