Objection to His

City Commissioner McUovern denlrs
that he has ordered cross-walk and Inter

"Foolish," said the commissioner. "I
smoke and think aa much of a good cigar
as anybody. I don't even know if tnese
men smoke and don't care It they do.
They are at liberty to smoke as much as
they ploase."
One of the city employes said a sltrn
had been posted on the door of the city
asphalt plant declaring It was worth a
man's Job to be caught smoking while on
duty. McQovern says he's more likely t
ask a man for a cigar than to reprimand
him for smoking. The sign was posted
without his authority.

Churches Drain to rtenllcc Thla In
One nC nimrest Fnctnra In
the Sncocnn of the
Church.
Last night's session of the Douglas
County Sunday School association, In
convention at the Dundee Presbyterian
church, was attended by several hun
dred people.
E J. Wlghtman, president of the State
Sunday School association, read a paper
on "The Modern Sunday School." Mr.
Wlghtman said that more and more the
attention of the various churches Is be
ing attracted to tho importance of Sun
day school work, with tho result that
within a few years this will probably be
the foremost department of every re
ligious body. Already plans are Under
way to systematize and adopt a course
of study In tho Sabbath school.
Following Mr. Wlghtman, Miss Mar
garet Ellen Brown, general secretary of
the state association, who leaves March
1 for a five months' trip tnrough Europe
and tho orient on a missionary expedi
tion, gavo an Intensely interesting and
appealing talk, her subject being "What
We Owe Our Boys and Girls In tho
'Teens." Miss Brown, who has had ex
tended experiences with young people as
a school teacher, brought to the minds of
the adults present the Importance of
taking Interest and thought with tho
whims, desires and ambitions of chil
dren at this important stage in life.
Miss Brown related some of these and
her method of going about such matters
with each youngster. That she has
made child life a study she expressed In
every word she uttered. Miss Brown Is
a small woman physically, but when
speaking of her chosen work In helping
the young her face is illumined with a
spirit that is anything but small. Those
present last evening by their minute at
tention to her entire utterance displayed
a perfect testimonial of their Interest.

would amount to nearly $4,000, depending
upon when tho warrants should bo

Mr. Ure' said the Water board hod col
lected $47,000 this month for water rates
alone; $70,000 was collected on rates last

WARNED NOT TO DO WRONG
J, AVIIIInnm llnnnil Over by Federal
Commissioner, Chnrwetl with Can
lilrncr, nnil Iteiiinliix in Jnll
Unnhle to Oct llon.l.
With money furnished by Arthur Mul
len, attorney for Dlggs Nolen, A. D.
Uallahue bought the saws with which
Nolen planned to escape from tho
Douglas county Jail, according to testi
mony of Oallahue yesterday at the hear
ing of J. Williams, charged with con
spiracy to release Nolen. The hearing
was before United States Commissioner
Daniel.
Williams was held to tho grand Jury In
$1,000 ball, which ho could not furnish.
The hearing developed (resh Informa
tion regarding the plot to liberate Nolen
when he was In the county Jail, awaiting
trial In the federal court on a charge of
using the malls to defraud.
Gnllahiie wan In custody In the county
Jail when Nolen was there awaiting trial,
but gained his freedom before Nolen's
hearing.
Oallahuo testified he bought the saws
nt Nolen's request. He did not tell Mul
len that he expected to buy saws with
the money.
"Mullen gave me warning that It I
was going to uso the money for any
wrong purpose ho would wash his hahdi
of the affair," sold Oallahue.
Oallahue testified he frequently heard
Nolen and Williams talking In tho Jail
about getting the saws up to the cells
and they talked about pulling them up
with a string.
Williams appeared as his own nttorney
and freely cross-questioned the witnesses.
He asked Oallahue If ho had over
heard him promise to deliver the saw.t
to Nolen. Gallahue said ho had not.
Frank Moyer, also serving time In tho
county Jail, testified Williams pulled the
saws up Into tho Jail with a string
J. n. Klnknld, serving time for vagrancy,
testified he heard Moyer say to Williams,
"They havp nothing against you, Wil
liams. They are not going to do any
thing to you. You needn't bo afraid.
Moyer denied this,
Ben. If. Bikes, also In Jail at tho time,
was called to the stand by Williams.
He testified he saw a tall, slender, thin
faced, gray-haired man pass the card
board box to Nolen. This was supposed
to be tho box containing the saws. The
next day Nblen told him ho had got tho
sawB the evening before.
"I've got a Colt's automatic and a bot
tle of 'soup,' was Nolen's remark, ab
cording to Bikes' testimony. Asked why
he never told nnybody about Nolen's
having theso things, Slkes sold:
Wonlil Shoot lt- lljenrt.
"Nolen said If anybody 'squealed' on
him he would croak him. Ho said he
would cut his heart out, or shoot It out,
one or the other."
Slkes was placed under a $500 bond
signed by himself, to appear as a wit
ness before, the federal grand jury
March 10. Gallahuo is held to the grand
Jury as the result of a former hearing,
charged with being a party to the plan
to liberate Nolen.
Firemen Thrown
From Hose Wagon
and Four Hurt
Just as a heavy hose cart dashed out of
No. 6 flro station at Twenty-fourth and
Cuming streets last nlgbt In. response to
an alarm from Fifteenth and California
streets a northbound Pork avenuo car
struck tho wagon squarely In tho mlddlo,
turning It over, plhnlng Captain Pat Mc
EUlgott underneath nnd knocking three
other firemen from their places.
Tho wagon was demolished, hut tho
street car remained on the track and pro
ceeded on Its way Immediately. It was
manned by Motorman Wright and Con
ductor Adams.
The injured firemen, William Dlneen.
H. C. Hansen. Captain McElllgott and
Charles Bearman, were brought to tho
pollco station and treated by Drs. Lee,
Harris and Folts and later takon to their
homes.
Fireman Dlneen woa the worst hurt of
any. He received a deep gash nearly six
Inches In length In his thigh and also In
juries to his left arm. Hansen's right
hand, right knee and left hip were cut
and bruised and Captain KcElligott sus
tained painful cuts also. Bearman was
the least hurt of any, he being only badly
shaken up and receiving a slight bruise
on one of his hands.
Soveral days ago a fire wagon coming
out of tho Tenth Btreet barn was hit In
exactly the same way, tho wagon being
demolished and Beveral firemen hurt.
The fire at Fifteenth and California
streets was a small ono and the damage
did not amount to over $3.
City Commissioner Wlthnell of the de
partment of fire protection and water
supply, will ask tho street railway com
pany to pay for the damage to the hose
carta. There Is a ruling that street cars
must slow up passing engines houses,
says Commissioner Wlthnell, and, ha
says, the accident last night was due to
a violation of this rule.

"I'm ready for a hearing Monday be
fore the city commission. I will be there
and will answer any accusations that
have been made. In the meantime, how
ever, I want tho publlo to suspend sen
