that II is wiser to get even their cost

moths getting into them. So the
January shopper is in luck. But the

know something about them or she
should go to a reliable dealer whose

HITCHCOCK DISSATISFIED
Nebraska Senator Not Willing to Ac-
cept Terms Of Lodge Resolution.

Washington. Dec. Ex-senator
Hitchcock is not satisfied with the
terms or even the verbiage Of Sena-
tor Lodges joint resolution relating
to President Taft's action of abrogat-
ing the treaty between Russia and the
United States, concluded Dec. IS. 1892.
affecting passports. He expressed him
self very forcibly in the committee on
foreign relations, of which he is a
member, when the action of the presi-
dent came up, and was the only men,
Der of the committee to vote against
the terms of the resolutions as pre-
scented by Senator Lodge.
Senator Hitchcock introduced a
substitute to the Lodge resolution yes
terday which follows the Sulzer reso-
luton very closely, and he gave no.
tice that he would speak on the reso.
luton today.
In this connection it may be said
that President Taft has had the ques-
ton of abrogation of the treaty OF
1882 under consideration for more
than year, and only the form of its
abrogation has been the subject of
discussion. He has been ready to
serve notice on Russia that the treaty
had outlived it's usefulness and that a
new and more up-to-date agreement
should be made. Suffers resolution
accentuated the necessity Of dealing
with the subject in a diplomatic way,
and the president took advantage of
the opportunity to use his large
knowledge of conditions rather than
accept the point of view as outlined
by Sulzer.
1t is understood that Congressman
Sulzer will be satisfied with the joint
resolution as introduced by Senator
Lodge, and which will give Senator
Hitchcock an opportunity to make a
speech

PAVING Plan Is Approved.

There was no quorum Of the city
council last night. A regular meeting
was scheduled. The city dads had
much business in the wire basket 10
transact, and those who were present
declared a fine should be assessed
against those councilmen failing to
appear or to hand in good excuse
| for absence.
If resolution handed to the city
clerk by the city attorney passes at
the next meeting, which will be held
Wednesday night, the proposed $4,000
municipal light plant, If the bonds
carry, would be under civil service"
rules. In the city attorneys resolution,
which ne says he was requested to
draw up, the mayor is given power
to appoint three trustees" who will
have full management of the plant
A competent" engineer is to be ZAP
pointed by the mayor"
Another resolution held by the city
attorney was to be handed to the
council last night, if quorum was
reached. This resolution will be a
surprise Wnen IL DeCOuleS puDiiC, IL IL
said.
The old election board will likely be
re-chosen, and although not yet Off
cially named, the names of the last
board were filled in on blank made
ready for a vote last night.
The Norfolk avenue and Ninth
street paving petition was approved
and the city attorney had the prelimin
airy ordinance ready for the councils
vote. Emma Williams, r. II. Waters
and j. w. Decker withdrew theiI
names from the petition, but this with
drawal, it was said by city officials
was too late" Even if the withdraw
ais did count, the petition still has
good margin TO go on.

Carries Bay Of Dynamite.

Stanton, Neb., Dec 19.-Special to
The News: A man who had been
working around this vicinity went to
the premises of James f. Brown, one
of Stanton county's prominent farm
ers. He began to make himself obnox-
ious and was ordered to leave the
premises. He refused to go; the result
was that he was forcibly elected from
the premises by Mr.. Brown. Hearing
OF this and some other suspicious cir
cumstances, Sheriff Sucker of this
county concluded that this party was
rather an improper character to have
around loose.
Sheriff Sucker proceeded to the
home Of Bert Loomis. Here, after
some short conversation, Alfred Bos'
ton for that was his name) concluded
to make a run for it, and started for
the timber along the Elkhorn river.
Sheriff Sucker did not notice this ma.
neuver until Boston secured long
lead Intervening wire fences pre-
vented the officer following with his
team, and the result was Boston is
still at large, although large posse of
men are searching for him all after
noon.
He had suitcase and in it was
found a stick and half of dynamite
with fuse and caps. 1t seems that he
is from Taylorsville, N. c., where he
has a wife and several children. He
poses as United States deputy mar
shall, and has a star as evidence OF
his authority. But why he should en-
deavor to escape and why he should
have the dynamite are unanswered
questions.
He is a man OF about 35 years OF
age, five feet, eight or nine inches
tall, with a sandy mustache, light
brown hair, and speaks with a south
ern accent.
