resented by the officers OF the Humane So

name Oficer Tuft of Denver for 10 a, m.
Monday for hearing on a requisitioa
which the officer had for the return Of
Thornton G. Perkins to Denver on the
charge of wife abandonment Tuft failed
to keep the appointment, however, as he
eloped with the prisoner Sunday night
Last July Perkins abandoned his wife and
three children. who were then supported by
the county oflciaia and Humane Officer
Ellison of Omaha was requested to look out
for Perkins. as he was supposed to be head
ing this way. Officer Ellison found the
man at Lincoln, but before he could be ar
rested he had skipped to Sioux City, Ia,
going from there to South Omaha and then
returning to Lincoln. Mr.. Ellison got word
of his return TO Lincoln and notified the
police OF that city. who placed Perkins in
prison Officer Ellison then notified the
Denver society. which sent Mr.. Tuft with
requisition papers for the prisoner, but

day afternoon on the case found Perkins
alone in the Capitol hotel in Lincoln busliy
engaged in studying time tables and ar
ranging to leave town alone Immediately
Perkins was again arrested, much to the
Indignation Of Mrs. Perkins, who was ig-
norant of the time table episode and be-

made TO her. She solicited the aid OF Gov
ernor Mickey last Sunday, who lntimated to
Oficer Tuft that he would not grant the
requisition for the return Of Perkins to
Denver
| Perkins was persuaded TO return without
the use of the papers but at the last minute
refused, so he was hustled into the patrol
wagon and put on a train for Denver just
as II was pulling out.
| Perkins is in Denver. together with Officer
Tuft, Governor Mickey has missed the
pleasure of an interesting interview and
Mrs. Perkins has returned to Denver for
the purpose OF endeavoring to keep her hus-

an opportunity to keep the promises which
were so quickly forgotten by him when
made.

At the general committee meeting Of the
city council Monday afternoon three para
mount Issues. dollar gas, dual and single
telephones and universal street car trans

points.
The street car transfer matter brought
the statement from Councilmen zimman.

ton point, except where the passenger
might be able to ride back to starting
point should be passed to replace the
ordinance now in effect. And Judging from
the present temper Of a majority Of the
council the street car company will either
have to grant transfer for a transfer or
go to the mat with such councilmen as
McGovern, Bridges and Zimman.
The Nebraska Telephone company's prop

ferred to and talked over, but action in the
matter was postponed until a week hence,
when the three pending telephone ordi

will introduce this evening for first and

company TO the opportunities OF the light

mittee intimated yesterday.
The parties seeking the new gas franchise
offer 81 gas for general purposes and ask
for thirty-year agreement, with an an
nuity of cents per 1000 feet. 1t Is gen.
orally understood in the council that the
granting Of a thirty-year franchise will
meet with much opposition. Inasmuch as
the present council stood on 81 gas plank
at the city election, the councilmen are
eager to redeem that pledge. There In a
