(From a STAFF Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Feb. 27. Especial The claims
bill will be ready for introduction in the
house tomorrow, the last day for ordinary
introduction of bills. The committee was
kept busy until the last minute tonight
completing the bill. 1t carries a total ap-
preparation of $3S, 900, as compared with $62,-
600 two years ago. Two years ago the wolf
bounty alone, $4,000 exceeded the total of
the bill this year. The largest item this
year is $4,000, for the relief of T. p. Ken
nard. The committee was still wrestling
tonight with the claim of State Architect
Tyler, 5000 or $1,000 of which it once had
been determined to cut out, but he was
given a new consideration.
Chairman Detrick of the committee said
that on a written opinion from the attor-
ney general the committee reached a decis-
ion on the claim of Sheriff Power of Doug
las county for the keeping of state pris-
oners. If the prisoners were kept only six
days the sheriff will be allowed 70 cents
day straight and if more than six days
90 cents straight Most of the prisoners
the committee finds, had been kept at the
county Jail thirty days. The sheriff,
through his attorney. E. P. Smith, con-
tended that the original law of 1868 fixed the
ratio at 70 cents a day and that he had
been paying out the money from his own
pocket. He said he would lose between $500
and $500 if his claim was cut from rs cents
a day..
Thompson, Livengood and Bartoo were
appointed to make thorough investigation
of the case OF State Architect Tyler the
affairs and accounts of his office and sum-
mon witnesses, and II witnesses refuse or
hesitate to attend the meetings the COM
mittee will secure the adoption by the
house of resolution forcing them to re-
spond to the summons. There is little or
no likelihood that the claim of the state
architect for his stenographer and addi-
tional draughtsman will be allowed. 1t is
as good as rejected now.

 l The Don Quixote series of stamps ! has not proven as popular with stamp collectors as had been expected This is due to the fact that the execu-
 tion of the stamps is relatively infe- rior and to the further fact that stamp collectors have been surfeited with commemorative issues. While the Don Quixote scheme was clever, the stamps themselves were lacking in attractive features.
 Last year q series of stamps was issued by Servia in honor of the coro- nation of King Peter. The new King and his father. Karagorgevitch, were artistically fine. 1t was anticipated that. collectors would absorb great quantities of these labels but the phil ateiists did not enthuse. Then the story was spread broadcast that by reversing the stamp the features of the murdered King Alexander could be clearly seen. This stimulated tho demand. but the Servian authorities executed their coup when the news was permitted to filter out that the stamps would be withdrawn and every copy in existence. bought up as far as possible, it being declared that the death mask of Alexander on the stamps was demoralizing the army. Then there was a rush to get the stamps, and there were plenty to be had notwithstanding the report that tho stamps were to be suppressed

 Miss Edith Tozier Weathered lives in Portland She. began her career as a writer on one of the Portland newspa- pers Appointed in 1894 as delegate from her city to the annual meeting of the International League of Press Clubs, she bore an invitation to the league to meet in Portland for the next convention. She delivered the invita- ton in. a speech that pleased and inn pressed all who heard 1t. Its keynote was loyalty toward and exploitation of the great Pacific Slope. She showed herself to be familiar with the magnifi- cent resources, agricultural, mineral and
 commercial, of all the region west of the Rockies from Northern California
 to British Columbia.
 It was no surprise at all to anybody
 who had ever heard this charming
 young woman speak when she began to
 be appointed one of the commissioners from Oregon to various large exposi- tions. beginning with the Pan-Ameri- can in 1901. There she was so active and useful that 1t was quite natural she should be officially employed to help prepare the Oregon exhibit for St Louis in 1904. Before the St. Louis exposition closed Mrs. Weathered was | busy with preparation for the Lewis and Clark celebration in her own city We may well believe Edith TozieI weathered did her full share toward | the brilliant success of the big north western show.

Amer,can Society of the Future.

Henry watterson in Cosmopolitan.
 The real trouble with American fash ionabIe life at present seems to be that 1t Is the vicious, not the virtuousr which our smart set imports from Eu- rope and which, without let or hind- rance gets through the custom house In the ,end, perhaps. the surfeit will bring about it's reaction; even the au- t0mobiIe craze may subside into a steady and useful locomotion. The time may come when the rich Ameri- can will find something more to his fancy than bizarre vanities and foreign lettering; when, surrounded by the re- finements that money can buy, he will stay at home, quite ready to receive inc hest of company. no longer nursing the distemper or deriving pleasure oi dipping his toes in the rather cold sun shine of a titled aristocracy, which al heart despises him.

She was appointed deputy United States recorder for Council City, Alaska. She kept her eyes open, and her official po- sition enabled her to become acquainted with mining claims. She invested eau tiously in some of these on her own account, selling them again as she had opportunity. She continued buying and selling till she was well acquaint- ed with the region around Nome.
