Damage to the extent Of $50 was done to
her clothing and the room before the fire

IMPORTANT MEMBERS OF
CORN SHOW STAFF SELECTED
Prominent Experts Lined Up for
Various Departments of the
Work This Year.

This is the lineup of some of the depart
1909:
Small Grains-Prof. c. p. Bull. Mime
sofa Agricultural college.
Foreign Exhibits-C. E. SLAMMED. De-
partment of Agriculture.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS e. c. Bishop,
Nebraska.
Domestic Science-Jessica E. Besack,
Iowa State college and Columbia uni
versity.
Iowa-Prof. M. l.. Bowman, Ames, Ia.
Montana-Alfred Atkinson, Bozeman,
Mont.
North Dakota-w. c.. Gilbreath, secretary
of agriculture.
The management is working on the diff
ferent departments and the staff for the
coming year is not complete. 1t is prac-
ticaliy certain that Prof Bull, who was in
attendance at the 1905 exposition, will take
charge of the small grain department. c..
K. Slammed was superintendent of judges
at the 1903 exposition. Because of his con-
nection with the Department of Agricul-
ture he Is well acquainted with those who
will likely have the next foreign exhibits
brought to this country in charge. The
feeling is that the anageme is greatly
strengthening its staff by the addition Of
the men who are experts in their line, and
has been quite fortunate In securing those
who had the experience of 1903 to return
and work for the 1903 exposition.

There's something about Nebraska land
that smacks of ~gold-gold, bright and yell
low. hard and cold.
1--WE Fremont and Valley is a farm
of 800 acres which ]. H. Dumont & Son Of
Omaha has sold several times, each time
with increasing value and handsome
profits for the last purchaser.
The firm first sold the farm six years
ago to a man whose name is now for
gotten for $4,000. -Four years later w. A.
Weidenhaft wanted to buy it. He paid
$4,000 cash, the man who bought it flour
years before making $4,000 on the ~transac-
ton beside raising crops which paid divl-
dends on a $4,000 investment.

Now Mr., Dumont says Nebraska land is
too cheap when $4,000 buys 300 acres, and
most of the farm which Mr.. Jensen bought
is worth from $40 to $50 per acre more
than he paid for it. the average price paid
being $40 per acre.

ROBBERS Go TO LINCOLN
Police Believe Same Trio Worked
Two 0mahas and Capital.
STREET CARS THEIR SPECIALITY
Bonnie Thomas Released From Gus
tody as Not HRvins Any Con-
nection with the Three
HOId-Ups.
STREET CARS THEIR SPECIALITY

''The holdup men nave gone to Lincoln"
declared Chief of Police Donahue and
Chief of Detectives Savage, Friday morn
ing. after reading of the street car rob-
berry at that city Thursday night.
1--WE are sure the three men who pulled
off the three highway robberies in Omaha
and South Omaha, Tuesday and Wednes-
day lights are the same who relieved
Conductor Parker of his money and other
valuables in Lincoln Thursday night"
the police officials said.
Bonnie Thomas and his partner, Chester
Williams, who were arrested Thursday
night in this city on suspicion that they
belonged to the hold-up gang. have been
discharged and completely exonerated by
alibis and failure to identify them. Other
suspects also nave been released by the
police, who are now firm in their con-
victien that the men have given them
the slip and have gone to Lincoln.
Attempts at identifying the prisoners
who have been placed in Jail at a result
of the robberies. were made Thursday
evening by Conductor H. c. Acker and
Frank Gillhouse, who were made the
victims of the gun-play artists the night
before. They failed to identify any of them.
Bonnie Not the Boy.
Being shown the photograph of Bonnie
Thomas, the conductor declared that the
likeness between Bonnie and the young
man who pushed a gun in his face on his
car Wednesday night, was surprisingly
striking. So Thomas and another young
man were arrested. but when they were
shown to Conductor Acker. the latter
changed his mind about either of them
being guilty. The police are convinced that
Bonnie could not have done the work. He
worked that night until after IL o'clock.
Aside from fair descriptions of the three
highwaymen. only two slight clues to
their identity remain In the hands of the
Omaha and South Omaha police. Both
watches taken during the carnival of rob-
berry that reigned in the two cities for a
couple of days have been recovered
and with them good descriptions of
the men who pawned them. Conductor
Acker's watcn was found in a South
omaha pawn shop, Thursday and before
that. the timepiece taken from Edward p.
Omaha daily bee., 1909-03-27

Miller in South Omaha, was recovered
in Omaha by Sergeant Dempsey and
Detective shoop.
With the description Of the men who
pawned the watches given by the pawn
brokers. the local sleuths are working, but
they think the men they want are opera
ting in the capital city, or at least were
there Thursday night. The facts that there
were three men, two with guns and one
to search the victim, that they were young
and unmasked, and that they operated
alike. in both the Omaha and Lincoln street
car hold-ups, leads to the conclusion that
both pieces or work were done by the
same trio of crooks.

Sues Herself to
Adjust Will
Woman Becomes Both Plaintiff and
Defendant in Case, Involving
Property Rights.

Mrs. Margaret Brnson of South Omaha
occupied the somewhat unusual position of
being both defendant and plaintiff in a
suit filed in district court.
Mrs. Bruson was formerly Mrs. Margaret
Lesac. Her husband died, leaving a child,
Mary Lesac, and some real estate.
A brother of the deceased claims that he
has an interest in the property by virtue
OF a mortgage, Mrs. Bruson has one as a
w right and the child as the daughter
of the dead man. SO Mrs. Bruson, as the
next friend of her daughter, sues her
self and her former brother-ln-law in behalf
of the child, in order that the various
equities of the several, people interested
may be settled.

Hewitt had been SEEMING in Cutoff lake.
The order was obeyed and then came an
other to row out into the middle of the
lake. All these commands were enforced
by a short-barrelled shotgun which Hewitt
kept aimed at the officers of the lava
TIL game wardens rowed out. Hewitt
and his friends set UP a derisive yell and
then turned and legged it.
Boehler and former Deputy Frank Brown
of Omaha had heard Thursday that
there was something astir on the placid
waters OF the lake. Together they went
there Thursday night ana found. they say.
Hewitt and three other men operating a
seine big enough to drag in at one haul
all the fish in the lake.
Omcers are Cautious.
The officers approached cautiously and
getting near the bank heard the sound of
men rowing out on the oarksome waters.
They waited awhile and then came a noise
like a skiff's prov running up on a grav-
ely bank. Swooping down on the quartet
the four were ordered under arrest and a
pair Of handouts placed on the wrists of
two. Unfortunately for them they did not
select Hewitt as one of the two.
Then as the officers were proceeding to
confiscate the seine and the fish Hewitt
sided off a little ways. In the darkness
they did not notice him. A minute more
and Hewitt was back, the officers were
gazing at the twin barrels of a shotgun
and the situation was reversed. There fol-
lowed the dime-novel orders, obeyed re-
luctantly but promptly.
Boehler denies that Hewitt ordered him
to put his hands up and declines to vouch
for the rowing into the lake part of the
episode. In Sheriff Brailey's office this
part of the narrative is as confidently be-
lieved as the ominous appearance of the
shotgun.

PLEA COUNSEL MAKES
Booty Left Uncovered, So Why
Shouldn't He Take IT.
SAYS HE OUGHT TO BE REWARDED
David Van Etten wants His Client
Paid by Company Robbed In
steHd of Punished by
the Court.

David Van Etten, attorney for John
Hedrick, a prisoner before Judge Sears
Friday morning, declared TO the court that
Hedriek ought to be rewarded instead of
punished. Judge Sears didn't see it.
Hedrick was arrested with Arthur Hall
on the charge of breaking and entering the
Farrell company's warehouse and stealing
a quantity Of maple syrup. Hall pleaded
guilty to the burglary charge a few days
ago and got two years.
THE aFrrelI company ought to give
Hedrick $780, asserted Van Etten,
"why7" asked Judge Sears in surprise.
''rhe man. is pleading guilty, is he not9"
well" said Van Etten. the Farrell
company almost invited robbery by the
way It left its place open and since this at
fair 1t fixed it up"
Even IL it had left its goods on the side
walk" answered the court. that would
be no reason for putting a halo on this
mans head. He confesses TO the theft of
the syrup. 1t was not worth a great deal,
but they were there To steal all they
could"
Plea for More Clemency.
Counsel for defendant proceeded TO argue
that Hedrick had already been in jail thirty
days and asked the court to give him but
fwenty-four hours more.
THE situation is this said the court.
"The county attorney is satisfied that this
man was guilty OF breaking and entering
with the purpose 10 steal, but he is not
certain that he can prove the burglary part
Of the charge. The prisoner pleads guilty
TO petty larceny. Thirty days in Jail is the
maximum penalty for this, but I can assess
a 800 fine and costs. which 1t will take a
little longer to work out. That is the
sentence"
