NO CHAPERoN AT THE PARTY
Alpha Tau Omega Fraternity Dis
ciDlIned mt Lincoln for Slight
Oversight.

LINCOLN, Jan. 6,-(Special. 1.-THE first
fraternity of the State university to feel
the effect of the new restrictions imposed
upon the Greek letter chapters is Alpha
Tau Omega. BY refusing to have a chap
eron at it's recent party the Alpha Tau
Omega violated one of the university regu-
lations governing social affairs, and the
penalty imposed for it's misconduct is that
it shall not be allowed to entertain any
young women at its chapter house until
after the Easter recess in April.
Miss Alice Ensign, dean of women, has
announced that the university faculty does
not wish to enforce drastic measures upon
any fraternity or sorority, but that, in or
der to make all Greeks obey the rules,
every regulation adopted by the university
senate and regents will be strictly carried
out.
Miss Ensign declares tina she believes
the violation of the rules by Alpha Tau
Omega was due to pure carelessness and
not to wantonness.
The senate and the dean Of
women have been keeping a close watch
on all fraternities and sororities, and it is
limited that one or two OF the sororities
fracturing the rules unless they mend their
ways at once.
The rules limiting social functions. which
Alpha Tau Omega violated provide that
there shall be no entertainments at chap
ter houses except on Fridays and Satur-
days and that these shall not extend after
IL p. m. Official chaperons are demanded
to be present at all social functions.

w est Clamorlng
for Omaha Grain
Snow Covered Ranches Demands for
Feed Drawing Heavily on the
Market Here.

A new demand for grain from the Omaha
grain market has sprung up, because of the
heavy SHOWS in the west. The call for grain
for feed for stock all over the west Is much
heavier than it has ever been since the
establishment of the Omaha grain market.
wyoming ranchmen are loud in their de-
mands for feed for their stock and the
railroads are pushing corn and BATS and
hay as fast as they can get the trains
through. The Northwestern has been
practically tied up west of Casper, but the
situation is becoming somewhat relieved.
While the stockmen do not report many
heavy losses to date, they fear that II the
winter does not break and some of the
snow disappear the loss will be heavy.
In the Belle Fourche country the ranch
men put up endless stacks of hay and this
is caring for the stock nicely. Some grain
which was shipped 20 Omaha from west
ern Nebraska is being hustled back again
to take care of the stock.

PURSE HAS THREE ROLES
Governors Secretary Wins Case in
Supreme Court.
PLAINTIFF, ATTORNEY, REPORTER
EnfOrces His Claim to- Buy Piece of
Land which Was Put Up at
Low Price During
FURRY.
From a staff Correspondent

LINCOLN, Jan. ~6-(Special Colonel w.
j. Furse, secretary to Governor Shallen-
berger, has proven that a lawyer may be
his own client and his own court reporter
and still win his case. Here is the story:
Back in 1907, when the banks were pay
ing their depositors with cashiers checks,
l.. w. Lambert of Iowa notified his agent
in Harlan county, o. II. Myers, to sell for
him a tract Of land upon which there was
q mortgage overdue. Lambert thought ne
should receive 1900 for the land. The
agent finally wrote him that he had an
offer Of $500. The agent was instructed
to close the deal, but the prospective pur-
chaser withdrew the offer and Myers then
went to Colonel Furse.
The colonel, who knew how hard It was
to get real money those days, made a cash
offer Of 5000 for the land. The agent 50
notified Lambert and, according to the
testimony. Lambert instructed Myers to
close the deal before the man backed uot.
TIL contract was drawn up and then Lam
bert decided not to sell. Furse went into
court to force the fulfillment Of the con-
tract. He was his own attorney and al
that time, being court reporter, he was
chosen by the other side to report the
case, 80 he appeared as three different
persons In the case-plaintlff, attorney and
reporter. The district court found for him
and now the supreme court has affirmed
that decision.
In its decision the court says there is
not one %scintilla Of evidence Of bad faith
} on the part OF the plaintiff and that he had
offered what the land was worth at that
time. The testimony OF the defendant, the
court said, was discredited at the trial
Lambert claimed he had not made the
verbal statement to Myers to close up the
deal for 5000.

KEARNEY-The county officials of Buff
falo county nave asked for an increase in
salaries under the theory that the popula-
ton of the county exceeds $1,000. IL the
Guest must be granted. Under a ruling of
the supreme court the population may be
estimated by the vote of the people for
congressman. Buffalo county had last fall
800 votes cast, which multiplied by five
gives a total of 5000. If the county board
does not object to the raise there Will be no
contest. but If they do, a test case will
be made. The increase will amount to
about SO per cent.
