Some Fourth of July.

The Nebraska state medical associa
tion, Through its committee on public
policy and Legislation is giving the
public some good advice regarding the
Fourth of July and proper safeguards
against SERIOUS accidents
Words need not be wasted, say the
doctors, Ito emphasize the folly in the
use of highly explosive fireworks, es.
pecially by children. To permit chill
dren TO handle such deadly playthings
becomes little less than crime and
adults who do not exercise the proper
Precautions are blameworthy to the
greatest degree.
But in spite of tine warnings the
coming Fourth of July probably win
result in the usual number of crippled
children, the ordinary amount of lock-
jaw and the average prevalence of
death and destruction as a result of the
observance of our glorious day
The physicians say that many deaths
result because the inquired ones are not
given immediate and proper attention
by capable surgeons. The people are
especially warnid by the Nebraska doc
tors. that penetrating wound, soiled by
the dust are very dangerous, the dust
frequently containing germs of lock-
jaw.
If law and parental discipline cannot
prevent taas use of toy pistols and giant
firec1ackrs the best thing will have
TO be done in taking proper care OF the
injuHed The bleeding, blistered child
should be hurried TO the family physi-
clan, who wall immediately convert the
wounds into open surfaces 80 that every
infectlh part may have access to the
AIR. This course, together with proper
antisepsis, is the only one that viii
prevent lockjaw and save a
victim from teatible death.
A patriotic observance of the Fourth
of July should not be discouraged. The
boys and girls should be permitted to
have a good time and a noisy time. But
let the grownups eSercise little COM
mon sense. Let them keep the deadly
toy pistol and treacherous giant frs
nrackSs from the little folks, and
probably WIS shall be able 10 ge. along
with the rest OF re explosives with
only small death and accident lish

mands judgment against the defendant
for $400 special damages and $4,000

plaintiff was wrongfully charged with
sealing ten sheep. valued at $40, the
property of John Hoefer and the de-
fendant, Caspar Zorn, but that the

against plaintiff. By reason of un-
founded criminal prosecution, the plain
tiff asks for damages.

RIGHTS
OF THE
INSURED

Attorney General Crawford, in a
written answer to series Of questions
propounded to him by Secretary of
State Dunbar, regarding the bankrupt
cy of insurance companies and the ap-
Ipointment of receives gave as his
opinion that the insolvency terminates
the policy of the companies at once.
In regard to a policy holder suffering
lloss by fire after the insolvency Of the
company has been declared, but who
lhad no notice of this insolvency, the
Encouragement says:
| GAS to whether claimant who suf-
fered damage or loss after the date the
company was declared bankrupt or in
| solvent would have valid claim on
the company's deposit with the state
treasurer, am of the opinion it would
depend largely upon how soon after
the company was declared bankrupt the
loss occurred. While that would be
considered the date upon which sch
tlement should be made of all business
of the company transacted within the
state, still if no proceedings were had
with the state of Oregon and no actual
notice of the company's insolvency re-
ceived and nothing done which could
be held as constructive notice of the
same, I am of the opinion that court
of equity in settling up the business
of the company would allow the policy
holdea to recover his loss from the fund
but if such a length of time had trans
pred. after the company was declared
a bankrupt or such legal or other pro-
ceedings had that the policy holder
could be considered negligent in not
in some other company, then
I think a court of equity would prob
ably reject his claim. Those matters
are largely within the discretion of the
court settling up the company's affairs,
and person claiming must himself
have been diligent."

John w. Neff Convicted.

John w. Neff, former auditor of
Eric county, was found guilty early on
Thursday morning at Warsaw, N. Y,
of grand larceny in the first degree.

and the district attorney had given up
all hope of a conviction.
Neff is the second man to be con-
victed in the graveyard scandal, which
has stirred up Buffalo and Erie coun-
ty for two years. Rowland j. Con-
over the man who had the contract to
clear the graveyard for an armory
site, was the first to be convicted.
Sentence upon him had been held up
for several months, and he was the
chief witness for the people.
Others indicted in this case were
Frederick Greiner, the postmaster of
Buffalo; Frederick o. Murray, the col
lector of the port; Gibson, Jackson and
Stock, supervisors, who, it is alleged,
shared the swag with Neff. Greiner
was tried for bribery and acquitted,
the court holding that the evidence of
an accomplice uncorroborated was not
sufficient. Murray, Gibson, Jackson
and Stock aresawaiting trial.
Neff was sentenced Monday to seven
years at hard labor in Auburn prison.
Execution was deferred till Thursday
so his attorney can make application
for certificate of reasonable doubt.

BENDER CHARGES DISMISSED.
Governor Says Evidence Does Not
Show He Solicited Contributions.

Albany, Aug. 7-Governor Higgins
has dismissed the charges against
Harry H. Bender, fiscal supervisor OF
state charities. These charges were
made by the Civil Service Reform as.
sociation to the State Civil Service
commission, which investigated then
and reported to the governor.

litical assessments had been collected
and solicited from subordinates in the
office of fiscal supervisor.

Supervisor Bender solicited contribu
tions and that the checks which he did
receive from one employe were given
to him by such employe for transmits.
sion to the treasurer of the Republican
state committee.
Governor Higgins wrote lengthy
memoranda setting forth his reasons
for dismissing the charges.
