CFrom a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Neb., June 14 (Special.)
Pennis H. Cronin, editor of the O'Neill
Frontier, has appealed from the decision
of the district court of Holt county in a
case where he sued the county treasurer
and his bondsmen for $4,020 due, as he al
leges, on a printing bill, wherein th
County Board of Supervisors had ordered
the treasurer to have printed in the
Frontier the scavenger tax list, but in
stead gave the job to another paper.
Cronin alleges that he got already to
print the list and that he should be paid
for it. The editor of the Frontier has
twice received a verdict for J1.0H.66, but
oppeals to the supreme court claiming
insufficiency of the sum.

A transcript has been filed in the office

forth that the petition for the saloon did
not contain a sufficient number of free

board upheld. The remonstrators now

Fruit Prospects Good.
Secretary Marshall of the horticultural
society reports this morning that the
fruit prospects In Nebraska are good.
eH says that In southeastern Nebraska,
' which is the great apple district, there
wHl be an immense crop of apples. In
the North Platte country the apple crop
will not be so large. This is due mostly
to the fact that that section had a big
crop last year and that two large crops
seldom follow. The cherry and plum
crop will be very good and the straw
berry crop fairly good. The dry weather
of a couple of weeks ago has affected
the strawberries more than any other
fruit.

DESCRIBES HIS OWN FATE
William T. Stead Once Wrote He
nuirkable Story of a White
Star Tragedy.
Intimate friends in this country of Wil
liam T. Stead of London, one of the vic
tims of the Titanic disaster, recalled a
story which he himself wrote In the
Christmas extra Issue of the Review of
Reviews, London, published in December,
1S92, entitled. "From the Old World to the
New," a chapter of which tallies in al
most every detail with the wreck of the
Titanic.
Mr. Stead In this chapter, which is
called "Coincident and Clalrvoyage," de
scribes an encounter with Icebergs at sea.
His characters are a group of English
tourists on their way to the Chicago
World s fair. They are crossing the At
lantic on board the Majestic, of the White
Star line. The steamship suddenly comes
upon a great Iceberg.
The great English writer, long known
for his ideas on spirluallsm. clairvoyance
and mental telepathy, brings all Into play
In his thrilling story of the high sea, but
when he describes the icebergs, fog and
conditions of sky and sea on board the
Majestic it would seem that he had been
able to send an account of what took
place that tragic Sunday evening it
could not have been more identical.

friend, that he (Thomas) has been saved
In the wreck of the Montrosev which was
In collision with an Iceberg. Th message
continued to come. Meanwhile Mr. Comp
ton had asked the captain of the Majestic
to stop at the Iceberg on arrival. The old
captain scoffs at the idea. But then his
own vessel comes within a hair's breadth
of being wrecked by an iceberg. He stops,
Compton and the "professor" put out
in a lifeboat and eventually reach John
Thomas, finding him almost dead. They
bring him safely to the Majestic Just as it
seemed that the steamship would go un
der. The setting of the story and the de
scription of the icebergs and the wreck
tally with the tragedy of Sunday night.
The time and place also agree with those
of Sunday's catastrophe. It also was on
a vessel of the White Star line, and the
captain had under his care just 2.000 souls
snd a cargo worth at least $2,000,000. Per
haps the only difference was that Mr.
Stead's mental telepathy has been re

some premonition of his own fate. Es
