sMEoLEY AND WIFE OUT ON BAL
Man Who Caused the Arrest Of tho
Couple Signs Their Bond.

Noup'e St8HS Sneir 6onos
Lincoln, March 27.-Mr. and Mrs
Scott Smedley, who have been in the
county jail since Friday, were re.
leased under $500 bonds by Justice
Stephens, and Farmer Wells, who
filed the complaint against them, went
on the bond. The complaint against
the woman charged her with securing
$4,000 from Wells by representing to
him that she was unmarried and that
some day she would be in a position
to marry him. In all, it Is claimed
the woman and man have done Wells
for $4,000. It Is understood, however,
that the woman intends to make a
payment on account at once and pay
the remainder on the installment plan.
If this agreement Is carried out Wells
will not prosecute. Wells claimed
that Mrs. Smedley beat him out of
the $4,000 last week. Mrs. Smedley
claimed to the court that she had
merely borrowed the money from
Wells. The two Smedleys and Wells
spent most If the day In conference
and apparently are on the best Of
terms.

One of the largest catches of Spanish
mackerel made here in long time was
that of yesterday, when the fishermen
who were out with nets captured a
school in which there were thousands
and they were dragged to the shore by
the barrel. Just previous to this catch
a large nine foot shark had been killed
and pulled out on the shore, and the
hundreds who assembled to see the
shark and fish were treated to sight

During all the heavy snowstorms and
the soft spell and thaws this driver
has not missed trip. Just think of
this, readers. With snow SO deep out
in the country that occupants of farm
houses have to shovel the snow from
around their chimney tops before fire
can be built. This stage driver must
use flying machine. And here comes
another story from the same town
about an old man seventy-eight years
old, James S. Douglass, who owns a

ing all this winter the store has not

Senator H. Herbert Sturgis of South
Standish, who is the author of this bill,
is AZ years of age, but is now practically
living in Massachusetts, as he is en-
gagged in manufacturing in Boston. He
was born in Standish, where he attend
ed the common schools. He took up
submarine diving, and followed this
hazardous calling for 20 years. He has
been engaged largely in the construction
of wharIes and harbor improvements.
Mr.. Sturgis was member of the last
two houses, and both years voted
against resubmission. He is not what
might be called temperance crank,
but he is more particularly interested
in taking the question out of politics.
Under the present system Mr.. Sturgis
says that everything at county conven-
tions centers around the nomination of
the sheriff, and in some places the
other offices are given scarcely more
than recognition, SO dominating is one
side or the other of the liquor question.
He thinks that his new bill, which
many say is radical and almost revolu-
tionary, will remedy these political de-
fects and bring about honest enforce
ment.

in vogue for dressy occasions, trimmed

their origin, while the English model
sis confined to morning frocks, is ex-

PALM BEACH, FLA, March IL, 1905.
One of the first questions which the
visitor to Palm Beach asks. and one
that is never firing to the traveller, is
that as to the size and dimensions of
the Hotel Royal Poinciana; and it may
surprise some of my northern friends
to learn of the size of this enormous
hosteIry. The usual questions are:
How many will it accommodated
"How long is the building?" "How
MANY rooms does it contain?" In reply
