Lincoln, Neb., March 22.-(Spe-
cial.)-The bone dry" prohibitory
bill, which had been made special
order in the senate for 1890 o'clock
this morning, has been put over until
next Tuesday at the same hour. Pro-
posed amendments offered by Rob-
ertson, which eliminate many of the
extra dry features, will be printed by
that time.
Nearly a hundred amendments to
the bill were reported.
What Changes Made.
The amendments strike out COM
pletely or in part fifteen Of the sixty
sections of the law, and amend others
to the following effect: ~
Remove all limits on the amount of
liquor that may be on hand May l.
Tone down the most drastic meas
ures designed to facilitate law en-
,orcement. .
Allow anyone to make wine or cider
at their home, providing they do not
sell it.
Give saloons thirty days after May
| to dispose of their stock.
Permit distilleries in the state to
continue disposing of their stock of
bonded goods outside the state, under
federal regulation.
Permit the manufacture without re-
strictions of ethyl-alcohol in the
state.
The amendments propose to strike
out all those sections of the bill which
relate to the restrictions hedging
common carriers and consignees in
the shipment OF liquor into the state,
on the ground that the federal bill,
prohibiting the interstate shipment of
liquor into dry territory, will take
care of this contingency.
THE bill is now boiled down into
simple, workable dry law, with all
red tape removed declared Senator
Robertson.
Drys Up in Arms.
Senator Beal of the dry committee,
OH the other hand, declares the
amendments are pernicious and such
that they will positively not be en-
dorsed by the "dty" wing of the SEN
ate.
He says allowing unlimited guam
titles OF liquor in private is the best
inducepent for bootlegging, which
condition will inevitably result. The
amendments put fatal hindrances in

France Gets New Idea
Relative to American Women

Paris, Jan. 30-"The American
woman will come out of this war un.
der an aspect entirely different from
that hitherto given to her by French
writers and critics." says the Temps
For fifty years she was presented to
US by our romancers and dramatic
authors as an opulent beauty of ex-
travagant wealth, with a madness for
expenditure, with eccentric tastes and
life Of audacity.
Did they really imagine that these
little nervous and eccentric beings
that they presented to US, spoiled chill
dren OF immensely wealthy families
always agitated. tlirsting for pleas
ure and poise, were the only American
womenI To those who have not the
leisure to cross the ocean, and who
content themselves with observing the
American women among US, the war
will have unveiled the real visage OF
many of them.
ut will be perceived that their
ardor to live may also be an ardor to
make live, passion for devotion to
suffering; that the mania OF agitation,
that need for hustle, as they call it,
may become the most beautiful of &C
tivities when it is animated by the
spirit Of charity. 1t will be perceived
that extravaganza in absurd expend-
