Limantour Starts
Back to Mexico to
Resume His Office
Minister Leaves Statement, Saying He
is Returning TO Take Up
Former Duties. -

NEW YORK, March 16.-Senor Joe Yves
Limantour, Mexicos minister OF finance,
slipped quietly out OF town this afternoon.
apparently bound direct for Mexico city.
From what could be learned he has aban-
doned his idea Of going home by way OF
Florida and Havana, for he left New York
at o'clock this Afternoon over the Penn
sylvania railroad in his private car to St.
Louis
Railroad officials said from St Louis he
would go direct to Laredo, Tex, and then
TO Mexico city by rail in a course to be
determined by conditions on the border.
1t is understood here that should Minis
ter Lmantour ask for a military escort
through Texas his request will probably
be granted to the extent Of guarding him
TO the border between Texas and Mexico.
There were indications here that Senior
Llmantour was debating on just what route
he should follow. He left long type
written statement and the clerk at the
desk Of the hotel said he had inquired par
ticularly about the ssilings on or about
March 90 of all lines running between
Havana and Vera Cruz.
There have been frequent and persistent
rumors." his farewell statement read, in
part, that 1 would not return to Mexico
and that IL did it would not be to as
sumo the duties of the office l have tried
to fill aeceptably for some years. II ar
fOrds me pleasure to say that I am re-
turning to Mexico, not only to assume
those duties, but also to do whatever may
be within my sphere of action to improve
the general conditions Of my country"

The concert hall Of the German Home, on
South Thirteenth street, was yesterday
evening the scene OF a highly enjoyable
musical affair, the occasion being the sec
ond appearance in this city of the RiooalIy
String quartet late Of Berlin, which made
its Omaha debut several weeks earlier in
the season. The program was entirely diff
ferent from the one played on the occasion
OF their first visit here, and brought out
ouartets and detached movements by
Mozart smetana. Raft and Haydn.
The personnel of the quartet is. Jean
W. RietBch. first violin; Max Thai. second
violin; A. r. stercheie. viola, and Richard
Cables. cello.
while II h clear that these gentlemen
are ali excellent performers on their re-
spectivs Instruments, II Is none the less
certain that they are able to resist the
temptation TO shine as individuals-that
they are content to sacrifice personal glory
for the good of the common cause. The
common cause was, in this instance, the
worthy presentation OF the thoughts OF the
| masters as embodied In a number OF their
| contributions TO the quartet literature.
! This they certainly succeeded in doing and

I unsslfish devotion to their art; a devotion
| which made itself continually manifest IN

and enthusiasm with which they attacked

CENTRAL CITY. Neb. May S-Cspecisl)
-Merrick county. while one Of the smallest
counties in the state. is certainly setting a
pace that should be followed by some Of her
larger sisters. In the summer Of 1910
government good roads expert was secured
from Washington. and under his direction
two miles OF model road was built at a
cost Of $500 per mile. At the time Of the
building arrangements we're made to have
all of the township officers in the county
come in and learn how good roads could
be built through sand. which was the most
difficult Of construction.
The lessons of 1910 were so we'll learned
that in February, 1911. the good roads en-
thusiasts formed an association, with II
2. Glatfelter as president and Joe A. Hays
as secretary TO build forty miles Of roads
along the line of the Union Pacific railway
from the east to the west line of the
county. Central City business men donated
$500 in one days soliciting for the pur-
pose. The farmers along the proposed
route. almost to a man. have pledged two
days work each, and six townships
through which the road runs are throw
ing UP the necessary machine grades.
which is to be top dressed with clay or
gumbo by the donation work
These two pictures were taken two
miles west Of Central City on a sandy
stretch - road The first shows wagons
being loaded NSth gumbo soil by an ele-
vated grader one-half mile from where
TIE road is being constructed. The other
picture shows the twenty farmers teams
dumping their loads on the sand road
TheAe twenty teams put in nearly 400 loads
Of dirt per day, and put from two to three
cubic yards per rod OF road at a cost Of
about $500 per mile for completed road.
The failure of the late legislature to give
the state an up-to-date road law has not
deferred our people from going ahead in
their road movement. II shows how an
up-to-date. hustling bunch of farmers can
do things in spite of an adverse law-mak-
ing body
May % and % have been fixed as the
days for the donation work on finishing
the road, but from present activities much
of the road will be finished before that
date. II is the purpose of the organlza-
ton to maintain this road by means Of
the King road drag for one year after
completion to more thoroughly demon
strate the necessity and economy of keep
ing road good after building II right
Permanent cement culverts are TO replace
the wooden bridges on this line, and are

DRAYMAN LOSES CASE
AGAINST UNION PACIFIC
Jury at Central City Refuses to Grant
Damages to Chapman Man HIT
by Fast Train.

CENTRAL CITY. Neb. May 6-CSpecial.)
A case that has attracted considerable
attention over the county, and stirred up
considerable feeling in the neighborhood
where the plaintiff lived, was disposed of
in the district court here today when the
jury in the case of William Worland
against the Union Pacific Railway COM
pany brought in verdict finding no issue
Of action. The case occupied the entire at
tention of the court for the week, and after
the verdict was rendered the court ad-
journed until the following Monday. The
plaintiff, william Worland. has been a
drayman at Chapman for a number of
years. On the morning Of March 10, 1910,
while in the discharge of his regular voca-
ton, he attempted to cross the tracks with
his team and dray from the depot. Appar-
emily he did not see the fast approaching
Los Angeles limited bearing down upon
him. Before he had cleared the track the
engine crashed into the rear end Of the
wagon. The wagon was literally smashed
to dndling wood, the team was uninjured,
but Mr. Worland was tossed into the air
and when he was picked up was a mass OF
cuts and bruises. He was taken to the
hospital at Grand Island, and 1t was found
that he had sustained many bruises and
fractures. The railroad contended there
was ample opportunity for the plaintiff tc
see the approaching train, and that there
was negligence on his part. Photographs
OF the place where the accident occurred
were introduced, and at the conclusion Of
the hearing the jury went down to Chap
man to view the scene first hand. The
| jury deliberated for about ten minutes anC
returned a verdict of no cause Of action.
