SAD RETROSPECTlON.

I used to know a married man
Who toiled from morn to night,
And looked Just like an also-ran,
A poor, down-trodden wight.
He shaved and shaved and all he got
He gave unto his wife,
Who still complained about her lot
And led him such life,
1t seemed to him thousand years,
A thousand and day,
Since he made love to pretty dears
And threw his coin away.

Low Bidder Accuses
Board of Violating
It's Duty to Public

Legal action to force the Board of
County Commissioners TO reconsider the
letting OF the new county building jail
work contract to the PAUL Jail Building
company is intimated by r. c. Stewart,
head of the Stewart Iron Works company
OF Cincinnati, one OF the unsuccessful bid
ders, in an acrimonious letter addressed
TO the county commissioners and received
by the county clerks office today.
The letter closes with the sentence:
I'VE are entitled to an explanation and
II not received we viii take such steps as
are open to any bidder on public work"
In the course Of his letter Mr.. Stewart
declares his company did not receive fair
consideration at the hands OF the commits
sioners; he asserts they rejected his bid
In the face of the facts that 1t was the
lowest and came from a responsible bid
der and offered material 25 per cent su-
peTlor to that offered by any other bidder.
1--WE believe you have violated your obli-
cations to your constituents" is another
pungent sentence in the letter
The jail contract was let to the PAUL
company at $4,000. The Stewart com
pany's bid was several thousand dollars
lower. The commissioners have not yet
seen the Stewart letter.

Stand in Girls Trial

NEW YORK, Dec 1.-THE case Of the
state against Lillian Graham and Ethel
Conrad, on the charge OF attempting to
murder w. f. d. Stokes, probably will
be in the hands of the jury by tomor-
row night
The trial of the shooting show girls
held interest today through the reap
pearance of the spirited Miss Conrad
for cross examination and the unex-
pected calling of Stokes young wife late
in the afternoon.
There was sharp contrast in the appear
in all respects but age. The Conrad girl
has sworn her age to be 10, and the mil
lionaires bride scarcely looked older.
Each is pretty, Miss Conrad of the bru-
nette type, while Mrs. Stokes is a tall
blonde, with Titian-hued hair.
The calling of Mrs. Stokes as a witness
for the state came as q surprise to the
defense and TO the spectators. Her tes-
timony was brief She said she had mar
ried Stokes last February II, but had
lived at Stokes hotel for four or five
months previous to that date.
The main feature of her testimony was
the contradiction of Miss Conrads dec
laration that the defendant had met
Stokes at the Hotel Ansonia on the morn.

TOO MUCH WATER AT MORRILL,

WASHINGTON, Dec. A-(Special Tele-
gram )-The following telegram was sent
to w. l.. Minor OF Morrill,, Neb., today
signed Jointly by Senators Brown, Hitch
cock and Congressman NJ. p Kinkaid;
I'VE took up the seepage trouble at
Morrill, with the department at length
and are assured that the government will
proceed at once to construct the drain
age ditch on condition that the citizens
execute bond TO stand one-half the cost
or to build the last half of the ditch
1t appears that the town of Morrill, Is
even now greatly annoyed by water seep-
ing from the Sheep creek ditch. Cellars
are flooded, some roads leading to the
town are rendered impossible and a great
deal of destruction OF property impends
unless an immediate relief is applied.
A condition somewhat similar exists at
Mitchell, where seepage is causing dam
age. In this instance the bitches COM
planned OF are not owned by the govern
ment, but they are tristate or farmers
bitches, and hence the general govern
ment does not feel that it can be held re-
sponsible for seepage In these cases.
