Nova, where ne was given in 1899 the
degree of A. NJ, and by st. Mary's Col

Few men have been gifted with the
ability to grasp intricate and abstruse
legal propositions with the same degree
of accuracy and celebrity as was Judge
Smith. He had remarkable faculty,
and was able from memory to recite the
particular case which ruled the legal
proposition before him. His knowledge
of the law was not confined to any par
ticular branch, but he may well be said
to have been lawyer grounded in the
fundamental principles of the law. Nor
was his knowledge of subjects confined
to the law. He was well-read in litera-
ture and the classics, and in his inter-
probation of the law this knowledge and
learning he brought into continuous use.
Ellis opinions while member OF the
Superior Court are testimonials of his
zeal and energy and his research OF the
authorities.

MAY HAVE COME TO NEBRASKA
Minister Charged with Butchering
Browning Thought to Have Started
for BenkIeman.

PORT HURON, Mich, Jan. 9.-It became
known here today that Rev. John II. Car
michael, minister Of the Rattle Run Meth
odlst church, in which Gideon Browning
was butchered last Tuesday night, bought
a tick from Port Huron to Chicago the
day after the murder and presumably left
for that city.
With the identity of the murdered per-
son cleared up yesterday afternoon every
effort today was toward discovering the
whereabouts of Rev. Mr.. Carmichael and
uncovering a possible motive for the crime.
The idea seems to prevail that II the miss
ing preacher perpetrated the butchery 1t
must have been insanity which impelled
him to it.
The ticket agent at the Grand Trunk rail-
way tunnel depot noticed a man clad in a fur
coat and with a close cropped beard come
into the depot early Wednesday morning
He bought a ticket for Chicago, leaving
shortly after 5 o'clock, When shown Car
mlchael's picture the agent could not pos-
itively Identify him as the purchaser OF
the ticket.
Two OF the most generally accepted posi-
bilities are to the effect that the minister
might have been led by a disordered brain
to make his way back TO his old home in
West Virginia or his former pastorate In
Benkleman, Neb.
The Detroit police today the
two novels which Carmichael had written
and found in them many melodramatic ref
erences to violent deaths. In one place the
stories ascribed the burning Of the bodies
of two men. Theorists claim to see in these
manuscripts corrOboration OF their idea
that the preacher had become unbalanced
and had thought much Of killing.
CHICAGO. Jan. S.-Policemen throughout
this city today were given a detailed de-
scription OF Rev. John Haviland Car
michael, alleged slayer OF Gideon Browning
In a small church near Port Huron, Mich.
A telegram from Sheriff Wagenfeil Of Port
Huron stated that Carmichael left that city

lieve 1 am opposed to his ideas Of the
bill to guarantee bank deposits. without
having given the matter deep thought 1
would say the proposal to limit the liabil-
ity of the banks to a levy OF not more
than 2 per cent In one year in case of
bank failures b wrong. That would create
a fund in the neighborhood OF 81, 800, 90 on a
total deposit in state banks Of s65. 900, 900.
Should one large bank fail it would wipe
out that fund. In my opinion that would
not create a guaranty of deposits. While /

gone into 1t thoroughly. The other recon-
mendations seemed all right. but 1 will

time set in which losses in case of a bank
failure are to be paid. l am opposed to

But 1 want the time definitely settled"
J. f. Miller, Lancaster: II endorse every
