the election of a president promises to a

The Bee's exposure on last Monday of the
method In which the police department of
the city was winking at the disgraceful
orglra which are nightly going on In the
whip rooms of the city , and which would find
their fit environment In the bawdyhouses
In the burnt district was substantiated Tues
day night In a measure. Full proof could
liave been published yesterday If warning had
not In some way been given to the keepers
of the places of what was coming ,
Late Tuesday afternoon iMayor Moores ,
acting In his capacity ns chief executive of
the city , sent the following order to Acting
Chief of Police Haze :
Hunry P. Haze. Acting Chief of Police ,
City uenr Sir : Numerous complnltUH con
tinue to come to me of the existence of
wlno rooms In the city nnd of the strnndnl-
lous orgies which tnke place In them
nightly. Soon nftcr the preent Hoard of
Hro and Police CommlFSloiioi-H came Into
olflee they directed the chief of police to
close all wlno rooms In tbe cJty and to sea
to It that they were not reopened. This
older of the board hns been'Ignored by the
chltf of polleo and thu most disgusting
debauchery has contlmie.1 unmolested. Thu
Older to suppress the wine room evil Is
supported by every law-abiding and decent
citizen of the community , and It must be
enforced. You will , therefore , hnve every
wine room In the city visited frequently
by thu police- , and you will arrest all men
and women found consorting In buch places.

In accordance with thene orde-rs Sergeants
Mitchell and Chamberlain were Tuesday nlghl
detailed to raid all the wine room , ? In the
vicinity between the bounds ot Cumlng am !
Leavenworth ami Ninth and Slxteeittl :
streets. The result ot this raid was the ar
rest ot only five women and no men.
THE RAID TIPPED OFF.
This result Is laughed at by the saloon
keepers and the men who know what I ;
going on about the city at night. It Is con-
sldorsd highly ridiculous that In the district
named the police were able to find but fivi
women In the wlnerooms. The mystery 1.
explained , however , when It Is stated thai
a couple ot saloon keepers yeatfrdcj
boasted to some of their customers that thej
had been given a tip of what was coming
That was the reaso.i that the sergeant ;
found no women In their places.
Sergeant M'tchull ' was detailed to vlsll
all the wine room * In the territory between
Cumlng and Douglas , and Ninth and Six
teenth streets. This district Includes thi
burnt district , almost every saloon of whlcl
Is fitted up with wine roonio , which are fre
quentcd nightly by the disorderly women o
the district with escorls. Yet In all t bi
section Sargeant Mitchell was able to IIm
but two women. His report to Acting Chle
of Police Haze It ? as follows :
"In compliance with your request Officers
Hcltfeldt , McOrath and nijself went througl
all the -wine rooms In the saloons north o :
Douglas street to Cumlng street and frou
Ninth to Sixteenth streets. The wine room :
were all In good shape , that Is , there wa !
nobody In them except Ike Quill's. Then
wo found Emma Duncan , an oldtlme prostl
tute. We arrested her and eent her to thi
station. There were also two more couplci
lit another wine room that wo did not know
so we passed them by. There Is a gardei
In tha rear of Mike Mullen's across tin
street , where- there are a good many womei
of questionable character , but we did no
molerst them on account of being In tbe gar
den and not In the wine rooms. We fount
another in John Wright's , LIzzlo Malfane
colored , a prostitute , also arrested. Otlier
wloe the wine rooms were quiet and nobod ;
was In them. "
Ike Gulll's enloon Is located at Slxtcohtl
and Davenport streets. Mike Mullen's plac <
Is situated on the other corner. Wright's
saloon Is near Twelfth and Dodge streets.
FINDS THREE WOMEN.
Sergeant Chamberlain was ordered to taki
In all the wine rooms In the district betweei
Douglas mid Leuvcuworth , and Ninth am
Sixteenth streets. He has not yet Bent hi :
report to Acting Chief of Police Haze bu
ho found and arrested three women. Two o :
these , Bertha Golden and Fay Revere , wen
discovered In the wine rooms at Billy .Hus
ton's place at Twelfth and Farnam streets
The other was taken out of a wine room h
a saloon known as Odin's hall on lower Far
nam street.
Speaking regarding the punishment of tin
baloonkcepers In wlicse places the womei
were found , a party remarked to Acting Chle
ot Police Haze that the saloon me-n inducct
women to frequent the wine rooms by prom
Ising that they would not be molested b ;
the police. In answer to this Acting Chle
Haze said :
"There was considerable truth In that It
the past. In the future during the tw <
weeks that I am acting chiefof , police , I In
tend to follow out to tho" letter these In
structions of the mayov. "
Acting Chief ot Police Haze also statei
that he proposed to bring the facts brough
out by Tuesday night's raid to the attentloi
of the city prosecutor and ask him to prose
cute the saloon keepers In whose places tin
women were found.
Yesterday the women arrested were or
ralgned before Police Judge Gordon. Berth :
Golden pleaded guilty to the charge of bciiif
a disorderly woman and WES fined $10 am
costs.

S. Padolsky and L. Padolsky were ar
rested at the Instance of License Inspector
McVlttlo on the charge of peddling without
a license. They have but one license for
running a push cart. The license inspector
stated that Tuesday ho found that each
had a cart on the streets and on each cart
appeared the license number " 10 , " an ap-
paicnt Indication that they wcro running
two carta under one number. Yesterday ,
however , the Padolskys produced a wagon
license. They alleged that they wcro not
running the wagon , had transferred Its li
cence to one ot the push carls and had failed
to tear the number off one of the carts.
They maintained that they run the carts
under the same license alternately , but never
at tlio same time On this showing the
court discharged the1 two.
License Inspector McVlttle Is having con
siderable trouble over the fact that peddlers ,
have fallen line the custom of running two
or more wagons and carts under one li
cense.

Florence .
The county has practically completed the
continuation of the bicycle path from the
city limits to Florence and wheelmen now
have a continuous path from the end of the
pavement at Fort street to Florence. It Is
exceptionally hard and smooth for a new
path and promises to approximate perfection
after It has been settled by one or two good
rains and lo rolled again. Hundreds of
wheelmen traversed the smooth surface In
the bright moonlight Tuesday and hoped
that with this as a beginning similar Im
provements would be constructed In other
suburban thoroughfares. The expense ot con
struction was comparatively slight. Com
missioner Klerstead superintended the
county's share of the work In person. The
cntlro cost of the path from the city limits
to Florence was only $140.

The Best Hats ,
The real test of goodness is wear. The hat that wears
best is best. The best hat wears best , no m xtter whose name
is inside the crown. The Nebraska hats arc celebrated fcr
their wearing qualities. Nobody was ever known to buy a
poor hat here. Even the cheapest hats we sell are made from
honest material. They arc. made up honestly. They are well
dyed. They will give honest wear. Our line of new fall hats
comprises 24 distinct styles and every hat in the lot was made
up with the view of giving the fullest satisfaction for the price
you pay. \Ve sell a good full stock Derby or Fedora for
75 cents. Even these won't sotten up or turn grey in the
rain. The hats we sell for a do'lar are made from fur felt M
exclusively and will give remarkable wear. Nexrly everybody - "
body knows about our "Nebraska Special , " the wonderful
derby we sell for a dollar and a half. It 1ms the apncarance ,
the finish , the style , the wearing quality of most hits that arc
retai'ed for three dollars , and is worn regularly every season
by some of the best people in toWn. It isn't the price that
makes any hat good or bad. It's the material it is made from ,
and the way it is made ,
