without permitting anyone to know what
he was doing He simply entered the
chamber, looked about him, asked ques-
tons of the clerk and the janitor and the
pages and the messenger boys. He look
ed over a few records, and finally de-
cided that although the bench under
consideration offered opportunities for
spectacular work less alluring than other
benches offered, he would like to serve
on it just the same.
So the following day he returned to
the Attorney General, and related his ad-
ventures and made known his decision.

HILLS HAIL STORM
County Near Buffalo Visited BY

Buffalo, July 10. Last Thursday
this vicinity was visited by the worst

seen in the fields covered with splendid

promise of n splendid yield. having
commenced to tassle out. Now the
same fields present a sorry sight. and
the worst thing is that scarcely any
hail insurance was carried. The loss
will be immense and fall heaviest upon
the farmers and h~omesteaders who
have tenaciously hung on through the
past through hard years.
Fortunately, the season is earlv
enough to bring a good forage crop of
millet and the ground is in splendid

more than 1000 of the allies, reduced
those two tribes from their position at

battle was located. was obtained from
the diary Of the late DIR w. l.. Bow

the subject because of the field of skel-
etons he found in the valley of the Elk

near Stanton, in which hundreds of
skeletons were unearthed, substantiate
the data left by DIR. Bowman.
The Poncas and Omahas, who. lived
together on the banks Of the Missouri,
were on the annual spring buffalo
hunt ia the year 1S4S, when there were
few white men in all Nebraska. There
were 1900 Omaha warriors and 500
Ponca braves. In addition were 1000
old iuen, women and children who
were taken along to cure the meat and
prepare it for the return journey.
These Indians and the Sioux had been
at war for time immemorial In fact,
the Sioux were always at war with
every other nation within striking dis
lance. The Sioux were against all

One of the most interesting meetings
held by the Ohio Valley Trades and
Labor Assembly in this city for some
time was the one held last Sunday
afternoon at their hall on Market

The members will turn out in full

STREET CAR MEN ORGANIZE

Providence, R. l., Aug. 14.-Em-
ployes of the street Railway Compony
in this city have formed an organiza-

by the lines running in all directions
from this point having gradually gone
tothe union basis with the consequent
increase in wages and lettering OF

Following Lne establishment of the or

while this astronomical feat is be-

together there will be a genuine vic

What They Voted For.
Nothing has caused ripple on the
surface in the way of news other than
the recent trial before Magistrate
Gordon, whetn eight strikers were
charged with conspiracy under the
Red Man" act-the fake kidnapping
charge. Two of the men were dis
charged and six we're held for the
grand jury, even though Superintend-
ent Cronemeyer testified that no
other persuasion was used to have he
and Kelly remain on the car. but a
police request, and said that one man
gently laid his hand-upon his shoulder.
-fhe case should have been disposed
of in the justice court and not allowed
to come before the grand jury, for
nothing short of dismissal will be
justice.
But then most of these men are
just now hearing the sound of the
vote they cast last fall, and If they
like the tune they will doubtless re-
peat the vote next election. The i'm.
