RUTHERFORD 9 JENSEN Gun
Ask Receiver for Firm as Means of
settling Affairs of the
Concern.

Because of slack business and heavy ex-
penses. which cut deeply into profits, a re-
ceiver was appointed for the firm OF Ruther-
ford & Jensen. one of the oldest wall paper
and paint firms I'm the city, by Judge
Redick on application OF Peter Jensen. one
of the two members of the copartnership.
The proceedings were in the nature of a
voluntary action on the part of both Mr..
Jensen and MI. Rutherford in order to pre-
serve the value OF the BUSINESS and to pro-
teet creditors.
The suit was brought by Mr.. Jensen
against William Rutherford and Ruther-
ford & Jensen. It was stated in the petit
tion the firm had recently moved from Sic
South Sixteenth street to 141O and 1872 Har-
ney street. Here the daily expenses, ac-
cording to the petition. was $50. Recently,
on account of business depression, the firm
was unable to collect on its accounts, and
an extension Of credit was necessary. Both
partners desired TO settle matters between
them. but were unable to agree on the
terms OF settlement. Hence the court was
asked TO appoint the receiver and deter
mine the rights of each of the partners.
According to the statement of the condi-
tfon Of the firm, 1t is entirely solvent. The
books accounts which are collectible are
listed at $4,000 and other accounts are said
TO be worth $1,000. The stock IS valued at
S15,0Oof The Indebtedness Is placed at 5000
and open accounts owing at $4,000. These
accounts, says the petition. are past due
and creditors are threatened suit. II the
creditors begin action, Mr.. Jensen says. the
value OF the good will Of the firm and the
stock will be deprecated.
He ssked the receiver be appointed &c
take charge of the stock. dispose Of 1t anc
divide the proceeds after paying the debts
between the two partners according t.
their right as determined by the court.
The court Is also asked to dissolve the co
partnership. Judge Redick appointed Chri
Pedersen'ss receiver. Mr.. Rutherford mad,
a voluntary appearance in the case imme.
diately after the petition was filed.

GATE CITY IS MOST CONVENIENT
Idea Of Chicago Giving Ten Acres

Make n Real BiE
hit.

Wool buyers and manufacturer. as well
as a large number OF western growers, VIII
take a hand in assisting the National WOOL
Growers association in deciding in what
city the warehouse Of the association
should be located and some buyers have
already expressed their preference for
Omaha as the best point.
John schott, buyer for A. Franck & Co.
OF st. Louis, is In Omaha and says the 81
Louis buyers and manufacturers favor the
Warehouse being located at Omaha Tor
many reasons and believe 1t to be the most
conveniently located city. He says 81.
Louis buyers would not go 20 Chicago to
secure wool and stand for the switchins
charges which would be tackled to the
freight charges. MIR. schott is buying wool
at the Omaha Wool and Storage company
plant.
Arthur Z. Peirce Of Boston, who has
bought some wool in Omaha and is to re-
turn for more in the near future. objects
to the proposition Of the Chicago CONNER
cisl association. 1t Is understood the Chi
cago Commercial association has Offered to
give the Matrimonial Wool Growers associa-
tion ten acres of land on which to build
the warehouse In the event Chicago is Sc
lected as the city for the big warehouse.
Would Be in the Country.
Ten acres OF land lin Chicago means 1t
will be located away out toward Zion City
or some other forty miles point" accord
ing TO the wool buyers. II is not expected
that even the generous Commercial asso-
citation of Chicago will give wool growers
ten acres Of land along state street or near
railrond terminals where cars could be set
in without switching charges.
It Is estimated that there would be a s.
switching charge on every carload switched
TO the "ten acres" and another s. would
be extracted from the buyer or grower
when the wool was sold and shipped out.
This entire charge OF $40 per car is elimi-
mated by the railroad companies running
In and out Of Omaha. BY arrangement
with the Great Western there is no switch
ing charge on incoming wool sent to Omaha
and stored in the warehouse. When the
wool goes out there is a switching charge
Of 50. which is absorbed by the line taking
the wool out.
That the Omaha Wool and Storage COM
pauy has been able to secure good prices,
is shown by the price obtained for four
carloads Of low grade wool last week.
which brought 1th cents and the buyer paid
the freight through TO Boston. amounting
TO s202 per 100. which made the price
equivalent to i6h to II cents per pound. This
is a full 5 cents higher than the buyers
told wool growers all over the west they
would be able TO pay this year.

GOOD PLAY At
THE ORPHEUM THEATER

Down by the Sea-" presented by
Frank Cooley and his company ar the
Orpheum last night. proved a strong
and pleasing play Of the melodramatic
sort. There was much applause and
laughter throughout the performance.
indicating that the audience was well
pleased. Mr.. Cooley and Miss Kings
bury had congenial roles and mads the
most of them, while the balance of the
company put plenty of life and action
into the parts.
The story Of the play hinges upon
the remarkable resemblance between
two men, one a gentleman, the other
an escaped convict. The latter in at
tempting to kill the gentleman is mis-
taken for him by his pal and is killed
in his stead. The play abounds IN
heroic speeches and exciting climaxes.

Then came a faint wall from the inte- rior of the cave, which was a chamber of some six feet square, and which the ''cave diggers" had found on enlarging one of the little tunnels running into 1t from the outside. But So much dirt had crumbled into the entrance tunnel, which was about feet In length and IS inches in height, that Jimmy and the rescued boy by name, Dan Smith, had some diff fculty In reaching the imprisoned boys But Jimmy felt sure that enough air en- tered through the loose soil to keep the boys inside the cave alive for sometime, and their cries for help assured him in this supposition, for every minute he could hear them yelling at the top of their voices: Were aliyel Somebody dig us out of herel Help! Helpi'
 And Jimmy would call back to them 'Be patient. We'll soon show you day light. Help is comingr And all the time that he encouraged them he worked like a trooper. digging with a fury that as- tonished the less vigorous Dan Smith.
 After about 10 minutes of work Jimmy, with some aid from Dan, had hole large enough for the boys to crawl out through. And badly scared lot of half suffocated fellows came into daylight heaving to nll their lungs with the vel come fresh air. "Gee, I thought our time had come!" declared Hank, splitting some dirt from his mouth. 'But--say- who" And then his eyes fell on Jimmy, who was resting on the handle of spade precipitation streaming from his face. Say, u-get-us-out7" 2" Hank asked of Jimmy. his face flaming with a blush of shame.
 Well, I helped" replied Jimmy. CT got Dan Smith out, and together we did the rest. But that's nothing"
 "Nothingp' and Hanks voice quavered ''No, and 1t was nothing for me-coward that l was-to slap your face a little while ago, and nothing for you to surn round and rescue us all-six towards from death, for as sure as we are stand ing here we'd have died in there if 1t hadn't been for you, Jimmy. And for one I'm ready to say that you're a hero and that I'm a blamed coward-or WAS a coward. But right here I want to say that your conduct today has made me ashamed of myself, and that after this minute I'll try to act in every way as think you-Jimmy-would act. You're q brick, you are, and don't any of you boys here forget it."
 Hell all right" said Bert, batting his eyes to keep back tears of emotion, as he grasped Jimmy's shoulder and pressed 1t in a boyish way, trying to show his gratitude. And. like Captain Hank, of the Cave Diggers, l feel so ashamed of myself that I could hide my head in hole and not look anybody in the face for a month"
 Well, you've had about all the hiding in a hole you ought to want for a life time," laughed Jimmy, too kind-hearted and forgiving to entertain resentment against the boys who had been so unkind to him a short time before. And now I must be of to attend to my errand. I'll get a good scoiding for having been so long about 1t, too, if I don't look out"
 No you won't get a scolding, Jimmy,
