PERQUISITES OF POWER Senator
Elmer J. Burkctt, on the oath ult. ,
ranked nearly half 4 ton of his
personal effects to 90 by mail from
Lincoln, Neb., to the National Capt.
tai. free of any tax upon himself.
while ordinary people are restricted
to only four pounds, every ounce of
which has to be paid before any of
Uncle Sam poStmasters will even
look at it for transmission in the
mails. This mail matter of the Sen
ator consists of six large cedar boxes,
three feet long, two wide, easily tip
ping the beam at 100 pounds each.
Here is one of the palpable reasons
for the postal deficit. 1t requires
gall, even in a Senator to obtrude his
personality upon pnblic service a>

MUFFLING RETAINER-Wh is a
mutlling retainer? The average
individual would doubtless think it
somewhat applies to the legal profcs-
sion. but is unable to state in just
what manner. The practice obtained
in Rome, under the Empire about
$40 \. ID. When the rich and power
full were brought before the courts,
they would employ an usual number
of advocates and counsel to cspousc
their cause, thereby taking an undue
advantage of their poorer advcrsa-
rics. This practice was termed
"mutiling rcta;ncrs," and was for
hidden by penalties under the EN-
perOr Valerius. The object was to
place the litigating parties on an
equal footing as far as practicable.

Thomas Mayman and wife as soon as

EXPECTS TO BE 4 MILLIONAIRE. -
Mr.. H. Zones, who resides few
miles east of this city has just re-
ceived information that he has fallen
heir to share in valuable property
in Rhode Island, which in the aggre-
gate is of immense value, no less
than the title practically to the site
on which Providence stands. 1t
seems that Mr.. rs grand uncle. a
seafaring man over 100 years ago. ac-
uuired title to a tract of land then
near the city over which it ultimate
ly spread, and its owner gave lease
Tor the tract to spectators for per
petuity represented by the legal term
nine:y-nine years. which limit has
now expired and the heirs of a third
and fourth generation are cOntending
for their rights. Providence is one
OF the capitals of the State, situate
ON Narragansett Bay. 81 miles from
the ocean, IS miles from Boston and
100 from New York. and is a city Of
large commerce and wealth. 1t is
the site of Brown University, a noted
Institution of learning. The origi
nal settlement was made by colony
under Roger Williams in 1888. Prov
idence had at the census of 1900

dams buggy, testified in behalf of
the accused man, but the testimony
of the Indian and Night Officer
Kearney, who seized the rig just as
Dupuis was turning it over to the In
dian, and found the liquor in it, was
taken in preference to the three 9TH
ers.
In pronouncing sentence Acting
Police Judge Haley took occasion to
lecture the convicted man on the evil
of his way. He called attention to
the fact that he had recently been
found guilty and said that since the
fine imposed at that time did not
seem to have served as a warning, he
would this time put him where he
would be broken of the habit for 4
time. The Judge, who is also the
United States commissioner for this
district, informed Dupuis that when
he was through with his present sem
tence that the government would
probably be ready to take him up on
the charge of selling liquor without
government license.

NEBRASKA SHOWS BIG
PROSPERITY FIGURES

Omaha, Neb.-It is evident that
the people of Nebraska did not mind
the recent panic, for during the. year
1908 there were 1890 farm mort
cages paid off and cancelled, repre-
senting a value of $126,377,791, and
1858 new mortgages were recorded
representing a value of $36,432,657,
leaving tidy balance of about $780,
100000 to the credit of prosperity.
The population of Nebraska is now
about 1,250,000, and the assessed
wealth is $S45,365,S1S, an average of
nearly s276 per capita for men, wo-
men and children.
The area of the state is about 5O,-
100000 acres, of which $4,000, 900
are susceptible of cultivation, but
only 2,17S,773 are now under the
plow.
During the past year Nebraska has
advanced from fourth to third in list
of corn producers, having passed Mis-
souri, by 100000 bushels and has ad-
vanced to fourth place among the
wheat producing states. y

BOY USES KNIFE
ON RATTLESNAKE BITE

Chico Cal.-Thomas Warner. a 16-
year-old boy of Nlmshew, in the
mountains east of Chico. was bitten by
rattlesnake while he was making
his way along a lonely mountain trail
between Nimshew and Magalia Thurs
day evening.
1t was three miles home, and he
realized that if he waited until he
could walk home before he did any
thing to counteract the poison he
would stand very little chance to live.
The boy took out his pocket knife and
cut away the flesh from the wound
left by the snake. The snake bite
was in the fleshy part of the left hand
and he cut the flesh away clear to
the bone. He than ran all the way
home, the hand bleeding freely.
The surgery was successful for there
has been no swelling from the wound
and it is healing.

MUST PAY FINE

HARRY DUPUIS GUILTY OF
SELLING LIQUOR 10 INDIANS
Has Been Convicted Three Times
Within Two Weeks--Must Remain
in Jail for Thirty Days and Pay
SIS Fine-Wimess Tells How TO
Get Liquor in Dry Town.

Harry Dupuis, convicted three times
within two weeks of selling liquor to
Indians, will not repeat the offense
for thirty days at least. His last two
convictions were secured this morn
ing and resulted in his being COM
PEELED to pay fine of SIS and sem
fenced to Jail for 80 days.
The complaining witnesses against
Dupuis were Peter Corbett and Walt
er Bomson, two well-known Indians.
For supplying Corbett with the booze
Dupuis was sentenced to pay a fine
OF s25 and serve ten day Jail sem
tence. For supplying Bomsoi he was
sentenced to pay a fine of $50 and
serve 20 day sentence.
incidentally, in connection with the
trial of the Corbett case, the great
secret of how to secure liquor when
thirsty in dry town was revealed. 1t
was the testimony of Corbett and the
other witnesses that as he came in
sight of the window in the State ho-
tel where Dupuis was sitting that the
Indian rubbed the side of his face
with his hand. To show that he un-
derstood the signal. Dupuis nodded
left the window, and going down the
back stairs admitted the Indian to a
back room, where he was supplied
with the beloved firewater.
When on the witness stand himself,
Dupuis admitted that he understood
the signal. He also said it was a WE'LL
known signal. That he used it be-
fore and that it was understood to
many whites as well as Indians. In
this particular instance, however, he
denied that he gave Corbett the IL
quor, insisting that he shook his head
when he saw the signal, and did not
leave his room all day. His wife, who
took the stand in his behalf also
said that he remained in the rooms
all day.
In the case of Walter Bomson, Du-
puis was charged with accepting four
dollars from the Indian and of leav-
ing the liquor in the Indians buggy
for him. Mrs. Dupuis and a young

BIG BEND LAND TO
BE RESTORED TO ENTRY

North Yakima, Wash.-Those who
have investigated and read the letter
from the general land office which
announces the opening of the land
predict q good, old-fashioned stam-
pede about midnight September 26,
in the immediate vicinity of Hanford,
in Benton county, on the east bank
of the Columbia river.
1t comes about through the an
nounced intention on the part of the
federal government of opening town
ship 13, range 25 east; township 13,
range 26 east; township 13, range 27
east, and township IL, range 27 east,
under the land office here, and 9TH
ers which come uunder the jurisdic-
ton of the office at Walla Walla.
All of this land Is dry, but six Sec
tlons and more come under either the
present Hanford canal or under the
nighttime ditch. Hanford lands. with
water, sell from 800 to $3.50 an
acre. The possibility of the stam-
pede comes through a provision that
settlement on the land gives the set
tier priority rights as to filing. but no
one not now settled or settled before
May "a of this year may settle until
September 81. The actual entering
comes October Z.
A provision is made in the instruc-
tions to the land officials here that
If two or more settlers try to file on
the same piece of land and the Off
cials are at loss as to which settler
was on the ground first, the local
land office may sell the land to the
highest bidder. Some is school land
and some railroad, and the Hanford
officials claim that but little will ac-
tually be open to homesteaders under
their ditch.

INVESTIGATE DEATH OF
DROWNED YOUNG LADY

Tacoma, July S.-Investigation in
to the death of Miss Margaret Cuv-
reau, who was drowned in the bay
Sunday afternoon, while boating with
John Flynn, was commenced by the
coroner today. Flynn testified that
he beat the girl into insensibility in an
attempt to rescue her. He said she fell
in the water in such way as to drag
him under and said: "All the time
she was crying John, save me- This
was before l struck her and she did
not speak after that" Then he ex-
planned how he dragged her ashore
and tried to revive her.
