SWALLOWED A DIAMOND.
Omaha Jeweler Must Become Shylock
to Recover Diamond.

Omaha. May 31.-Like Shyloch and
his pound of flesh, Tinley L. Coombs
has been placed by the courts in the
dilemma Of not being able to claim his
property awarded by the judge, except
at the risk of killing a woman. In
this instance the pound of flesh is a
$500 diamond in the appendix Of self
confessed shop litter.
Mae Thomas swallowed the diamond
Saturday in the retail store of T. L..
Coombs & Co., jewellers. From tray
of diamonds on the counter the wo-
man removed the handsome stone and
concealed it in her mouth. To avoid
being found with the diamond ON her
person when searched she swallowed it.
Fearing appendicitis, the Thomas wo-
man confessed this to the police, who
confirmed the story by taking an X
ray photograph.
"The diamond is yours" said the
police judge to the jeweler yesterday,
"Take it, but if you resort to a surg
zeal operation against the prisoner 's
will and she dies, you can be held for
murder -
Surgeons say the diamond cannot be
removed without an operation, as the
X-ray showed it to be lodged, About
the only chance Coombs has of recov-
erng it is that the Thomas woman
will develop an attack of appendicitis.

est in years, and with an active mar.
lket for beer the outlook for higher
prices for hops is considered good. At
the moment spot quotations are slightly
3ower, as noted below, but brewers
would be unable to buy below the out
side quotations. Advices from the
coast are few and far between and
indicate an easier tendency. The up
state markets are slow. News from
abroad indicates backward conditions
IN England, while the continental crops
'=are progressing favorably.
Waterville Hop Review: Few If any
new features have developed on the
local market the past week, as prac'
Eieally no business has Been transact.
I'D. Holders OF stock show more dispo
sition to sell, but concession in price
would have to be made to move any

dertone to the market and selling
prices are off about &c per pound from
'ahe high level of fortnight ago. OF.
ferings, however. are very limited as
stocks in growers hands are very low.
On the Pacific coast choice remaining
lots can be bought today at lie, with
no transactions reported Upstate mar
Rcts are also weaker on account of alb

coming In of winter killed yards but
the damage seems to be confined TO the
old yards as new yards are reported
in excellent condition. Reports from
the Pacific coast continue To report the
growing crop as presenting a fine ap
pearance. English aud continental ad
vices still report the crops backward

Laughter Aids Digestion.

Nothing else will take the place OF
good cheer and laughter at meals or
any other time in the home. There is
vital connection between amiability
and igestion-between good cheer and
assimilation. Laughter is the best
friend the liver has, and depression, or
melancholia, its worst enemy. Numer.
Gus experiments have shown that
mirth and cheerfulness stimulate the
secretion of the gastric juices, and are
powerful aids to digestion. Yet, know.
ing this, many of us sit as gloomy and
absorbed at the table as at a funeral.
In many homes, scarcely a word is
spoken at meals, outside of requests
for an article of food.
The meal hour ought to mean some
thing besides supplying a mere animal
function. The bell which calls the
family to the table ought to be the sig
nal for good time generally. when all
cares should be thrown off and every.
body appear at his best. 1t ought to
signalize the time for mirth and laugh
ter. 1t ought to be looked forward to
by the members of the family as the
recess or incoming is looked forward to
by pupils in school, as a let-up from
the strenuous life.-Success Magazine.

DoWIE DEPosED.
seIf-styIed Elijah Repudiated by His
Followers.

Chicago.-At a meeting Sunday OF
5000 adherents of the Christian Catho-
lie church at Zion City, of which John
Alexander Dowie is the founder and
first apostle, Dowies authority was
repudiated and Wilburg Glenn Voliva,
who for some time has been conduct
ing the affairs of the church, elected in
his stead.
Mrs. Dowie also repudated her hus-
band, and their son, Gladstone Dowie,
cast his lot with his mother and the
new leader.
Most of the officials of the church
were present at the meeting and
Dowie was denounced by many of
these as having deceived the people
and having wasted their money IN ex-
travagances. The meeting, however,
refused to hold that he had knowingly
erred, and John G. Speicher, the for
mer overseer and once second in COM
mand to Dowie, who was recently de-
posed peremptorily, declared Dowie to
be insane.
Mrs. Dowie in her address also up
held that declaration. The casting Off
of the authority of John Alexander
Dowie followed the receipt Sunday of
an S00-word telegram from Dowie,
"ho 10 Ill heAlCO, III WHICH ne per-
emptorily ordered the immediate dis
charge of Deacon Alexander Grain
ger, financial manager of Zion, who
has been one of the most aggressive
leaders in the effort to place the af-
fairs of the church on a secure founda-
ton. Dowie calso announced in the
telegram that letter would follow in
which other officials were named for
deposition. A meeting of the Zion
council of twelve followed immedi-
ately and 1t was decided to place the
affairs of the church before the mem
bers and settle the question OF leader
ship.
The meeting was held Sunday after
noon and Overseer Voliva read the
long telegram from Dowie. A few
faint efforts at applause greeted the
reading, which was followed by a
storm of cheers for the new leader of
Zion as he arose from his chair and
advanced to the front or the platform
He invited Dr. Speicher, the former
oevrseer. to come to the platform and

ARBoR DAY IN COLORADO.
Proclamation Issued by Governor Nc
Donald.

Denver.-Following is the COVER
nor's Arbor Day proclamation:
Whereas, the statutes of Colorado
provide that, annually at the proper
season, the governor shall issue proc
lamatiou calling the attention of the
people to the provision that the third
Friday in April of each year shall be
set apart and known as Arbor Day, to
he observed by the people of this state
in the planting of forest trees for the
benefit and adornment of public and
private grounds, places and ways, and
in sucn other efforts and undertakings
as shall be in harmony with the gen.
eral character of the day so estab-
lished.
Il therefore, in accordance with the
law, designate Friday, April 20, 1906,
as Arbor Day, and earnestly recon-
mend to all citizens of the state that 1t
be generally observed.
Il further recommend and urge that
all state institutions of learning and
the public schools of Colorado OBJ
serve this day in the manner contem-
plated by the law. No greater service
can be rendered the state by the peo-
pie than that of planting trees, shrubs
and vines. 1t is fitting employment
for a patriotic and home-loving people
to beautify the land of their affection
and to adorn their homes.
In witness whereof have hereunto
set my hand and caused the great seal
Of the state to be affixed at Denver, the
state capital. this 9th day of March.

MOFFAT ROAD PROGRESS.
Completion of Its Own Line Into the
Denver Depot.

Denver.-After four years of hard
work the Moffat railroad has at last
built into Denver, says the Republi-
can, Saturday morning. At 6 o'clock
last evening when the engine of the
construction train gave a long, loud
whistle calling the men to knock off,
work, it was at the Denver, Northwest
ern & Pacific's own depot at Fifteenth
and Bassett streets.
Superintendent Deuel. does not know
exactly when the company will begin
using its own tracks, but it will be just
as soon as possible. At present the
company has an arrangement with the
Burlington road, which handles all its
trains in and out of the city, delivering
them at Utah Junction. This is very
expensive. costing not less than 500
a day, it is said
Mr.. Moffat said yesterday that he
does not expect to get the road built
through to Salt Lake before the end
of the two years. They are prepared
to put large force at work and rush
it, but it cannot be done unless labor
ers can be had. They can use 1000
men this summer if they can be had,
but there is a demand all over the
West for them. The Western Pacific
can use 5000 to 10000 of them in it's
work.
The contracts are let for the Moffat
road to the firms now at work on the
line to Daniels pass within thirty
miles of Heber, Utah. From this point
into Salt Lake the road will parallel
the RIO Grande Western. A short
branch line down to bennington, on
the Clark road, would cut off $50 miles
in the run to the Pacific coast.

MOROCCO CASE SETTLED.
Germany and France Reach Satisfac'
tory Agreement.

Algeciras, Spain.-The committee of
the conference on Moroccan reforms
reached an agreement on all points.
This agreement was sanctioned at the
plenary session of the conference Fri
day afternoon.
The complete accord resulted from
long conference held Saturday morn
ing between NJ. Revolt. head of the
French mission. and Count Won Tat
tenbach of the German mission.
The causes of the long dispute over
Moroccan affairs, which led France
and Germany to the brink of war and
impelled the calling of an international
conference, were that the empire OF
Morocco, an absolute despotism, has
been in a state or turmoil for
many years past, owing to the
natural course of events in u
country unrestricted by any laws
civil or religious, and also on account
of the steady warfare which the Sui
tan, Mulai Abd-el-Aziz, has had to
wage against the pretenders to the
throne.
This caused feeling of uneasiness
among the Arab tribes in Algeria, the
adjoining French territory, and led to
efforts on the part of France to assume
a guardianship over Morocco. Ger
many was not willing to unreservedly
agree to this, being second only to
Great Britain in the extent OF her in
terests in Morocco.
After considerable further fencing
between Germany and France, those
two powers July 8, 1905 agreed on the
basis of program for the proposed in.
ternational conference. which con-
vened January 10th and has just
reached an agreement.
