Omaha Elects Democrats
Mayor and AIdermanic
Candidates.

Omaha, Neb.. Nay 2.--James G.
Dahlman, Democrat. was elected
~ayor OF Omaha, over t. Al. .snson
by a surprising majority. The total
vote, according to unofficial returns,
was Dahlmnas 1o.247; Benson, 7,455;
making Dahlman's plurality 1882. The
vote for the Socialists candidate was
small.
A fuI set Of city Officers, including
city councilmen. was elected, council
men being elected at large and with
the exception of two Of the twelve
councilmen the Democrats mhde a
clean sweep. The successful Republi-
cans are II. B. zimman, at present
acting mayor and w. w. Bingham.
This election is the elimination OF one
of the most animated campaigns Oma-
ha has ever seen, local issues being
largely to the front. The Democratic
candidate was understood to favor a
more liberal policy in the city govern
ment. Dahlman is the first Democrat
elected mayor Of Omaha in sixteen
years.

is THE MEANING
OF CALCULATIONS
II Is a False Allegation Of Marriage
Vows.

London, May 3.-England has had
20 few suits involving iactitation Of
marriage that the average man read
ing the newspapers has been obliged
to consult a dictionary to know what
a recent case was all about. In law.
iactitation Of marriage means that one
person falsely alleges marriage to an
other-a definition that may save
some readers the time that woule be
expended in looking up a comparative
" unusual term.
Not acre than six such suits have
been brought In England courts for
more than half a century. The case
in point is where a mar asked the
court to enioin perpetual silence up
on a young woman who declared that
she was his wife, a condition that he
denied absolutely. He admitted part
Of her counter allegation, but insisted
that shere lad been no marriage cere-
mony and that she had no right 20 use
his name.
II met her charge that a registrar
had married her to him on a given
date by the swearing Of an alibi
Nevertheless, the signing Of the mans
assumed name TO the registrar was 50
much like the handwriting of the
proven letters that the court was
greatly puzzled. The abb, further
more, was by no e conclusive.

TEN OF the District
This is the view taken BY Stuart Nc

BRIDES WOODEN LEG
CAUSE OF LAWSUIT
Possession Of Member Brings About Fine
Legal Discussion, and Case
Is Appealed. :

PITTSBURG. Sept. l5-Dr. Clarence
Gukert, Pittsburg dentist. has been
sued by DR.. r. II. n. Mckenzie here
for the recovery of Sl00. the price OF a
wooden leg furnished some years ago 20
young woman. who IS now Mrs.
GukeTt. The suit was brought before
Alderman Charles Anderson.
Former City Attorney Stephen Porter.
Of Allegheny. appeared for the defend
ant, and the ground was taken that Dr.
Gukert did not marry the wooden limb:
that the wooden limb really was not
part of the now Mrs. Gukert: that 81
had never been; that it was no more
part of her than was her glove OF
finger ring.
Dr. McKeuzie's side Of the argument
was that the husband was responsible
for the bills of his wife that when a
man marTies he is supposed 10 assume
all Indebtedness of his wife. The argll-
meut was advanced that ina case of his
wife's death the husband would fall
heir TO her property.
Alderman Anderson decided that Guk-
