Frank J. Roach of Omaha and william

marriage licenses Monday afternoon. Kelly
journeyed all the way from distant Wyom-
Ing only to find Marriage License Clerk
Furay making out a license to wed his
fiancee to Roach. The mixup happened in
this way.
Roach was first on the scene, He gave
Mr.. Furay his name and then Furay was
called into the judges private office on
business. Thinking he had gone for some
time Roach. who had a pipe in his mouth,
wandered out into the hall to have a few
quiet puffs. While he was gone Kelly, who
also wore a pipe in his mouth, entered and
took the place occupied by Roach. Mr..
Furay came back and not noticing the
change in grooms, went on with his ques-
tioas. Q
"What is the girls name?p ne asked,
elizabeth NJ. Black" answered Kelly.
Mr.. Furay wrote in the name under that
of Roach and was scribbling away on the
license when Roach sauntered back into
the room, having finished his smoke, He
looked at the license and saw a strange
name under his own and then he protested.
He refused to be married to a woman he
had never seen and frankly told the mar
riage license clerk so. Mr.. Furay looked
at the pair of prospective grooms and then
tumbled to his mistake. He tore up the
license and began all over again.

WEBSTER TO ANSWER ROADS
Omaha Lawyer Asked by cree
Commission to Reply to Rail-
ways on Cut Rates.

Western railroads have put the Interstate
Commerce commission in the position Of
defending the lower rates which tho COM
mission ordered some time ago on dry
goods from Chicago to the Missouri river.
From a petition filed by the railroads this
reduction saves the Missouri river iobbers
800, 900 directly every year and costs the
railroads millions of dollars indirectly.
John L. Webster left for Chicago Sunday
In response to a request from the Interstate
Commerce commission to prepare an
answer to the railroads from that body
as to why the rates should not be restored
to their old schedule.
Since Mr.. Webster secured the order OF
the commission reducing the rates to the
Missouri river points the roads have been
fighting hard and bringing forth every
known argument. After the order was
issued the railroads filed a petition for a
rehearing, which was denied. Then another
petition was filed by other railroads not
in the petition originally. and that was
denied. Then ne railroads originally de.
fendsnts filed a bill in the United States
circuit court to prohibit the commission
from making the rates effective.

Erie Railroad Issues Book of Rules
To Make Employees
Careful.

The Erie railroad has issued a new book

under the head of General Notice" the
following observations are made;
The nature OF the transportation bust
ness and its relation to the state and the
community require the services of men Of
active minds. good character and general
ability. The employees of a railroad are at
all times, both in the discharge of their
duties as employees and as citizens, under
the constant view OF the public. Failure
to be efficient parts Of the transportation
system, or valuable citizens in whatever
place they are domiciled. brings reproach
upon them and the corporation with which
they are connected.
"There are corporate ana private duties
devolving upon each officer and employee
that arc not. nor can they be, expressed

on the part OF any one 80 perform such
duties makes it the duty Of the proper Of

WHY THE HUNTERS ARE MUM
Two IOunR Barristers Mistake Calf
for Deer and Pay the
Bill.

W. c. Fraser, clerk in the county judges
office and Clinton Bronze. a young at
torney, took a hunting trip TO Hofelt's
island below Gretna several days ago, but
since their return have been strangely
silent about II. Several other Omahans
who visited the island Sunday learned the
cause of their silence and were unfeeling
enough to tell about it on their return.
From the stories told at the island the
two young barristers were beating the
bush when they heard a cracking Of
twiggs and a rustic of dry leaves and an
animal darted out into the clearing with
tail erect and nostrils distended. Fraser,
according to the story, took a shot at it
under the impression It was the last rem
nant of a herd of deer or antelope. The
animal got away and a few hours later
Fred Hofelt, the owner of the farm, found
a heifer with its hid full of bird shot. The
hunters settled the bill and said nothing.

BOY KILLED WHILE HUNTING
Body Found In Woods Near Media
Pa, Under Circumstance
indicating Murder.

MEDIA, Pa, Oct. 26-The body OF John
Denny, jr., aged % years, was found in
the woods near Upper Providence today
under conditions which strongly point TO
murder. A large hole had been torn i'm the
lower portion of his face by a charge OF
shot. Denny started from his home in this
place Friday to 20 hunting. Accompanied
by another man he was seen going toward
the woods where his body was found. The
suggestion that he was the victim OF an
accident or shot himself is discounted by
the fact that his gun and ammunition and
all OF his valuables had beer taken. An
examination of the wound seems TO indi-
cate that two charges struck him aud
that the shot was not Of the size he used.
The police have arrested three negroes, who
admit they talked with Denny. but they
declare they know nothing OF The shooting.
