Arrordins to Informatiort which has bwn
furnished Ir. I M. Alkln, South Omaha.
Council Bluffs and Omaha have 16,000 people
who une cocaine. By this la not meant
that all of these are what are known aa
cocaine "flenda." hut that they use the
drug In some form or other.
Thia startling declaration wan made last
nlnht by Dr. Alkln In a lecture at tho Lowe
Avenue Presbyterian church, upon the
theme: ''Ine.mperance Among Temperance
People As Been From a Physician's View
point." And not only was the statement
made that the above number of users of
cocaine were to be found In South Omaha,
Council Bluffs and Omaha, but the state
ment also wss made that the number of
persons who are twins; the drug Is Increas
ing at an alarming rate. And to prove and
mphaKlse this assertion, Dr. Alkln related
a conversation which he had recently with
a Clerk In one of the Omaha drug stores,
in ' which the clerk stated that the first
thing he did each morning, the year round,
was to wrap np a large number of 6 and
10 cent packages of cocaine for each day's
supply. The statement also was made that
one of the local drug stores had recently
placed an order for tS.Ono worth of thia
drug.
Dr. Alkln's address consisted largely of
a protest against the use of patent proprie
tary medicines. .It was held that many a
Godly father and mother used these articles
which all contain from 10 to 60 per cent of
alcohol and then they wonder how It la
that their boya have acquired the taste
for liquor. Alcoholism was defined as a
chronic poisoning resulting from the use of
alcohol, and that alcohol Is of use to no
ona and harmful to everyone. It was also
declared to be a fact that persons af
flicted with erysipelas, scarlet fever and
other well-known diaeases, have the bet
ter chance of recovery by two to one If
they have not been addicted to the use of
alcohol, than that class of people who
nave used alcohol In any of its multitudin
ous forms.
Pateat Medlclae Gives Taste.
During his lecture Dr. Alkln gave the
names, of many well-known patent medi
cines which are sold In this country and
also Indicated the amount of alcohol which
each contained, and these amounts ranged
from 10 to as high aa 70 per cent. The uni
versality with which cocaine Is used In
these, medicines was held to be largely re
sponsible for the Increasing number of
those who are addicted to the use of co
caine, which is superseding morphine.
In this connection it was held that Ine
briety is as much a dlaease as any other,
and among these tubercolosls was named.
Thia dread disease was numbering Its vic
tims by the thousands among the black
people of the south and If the present ratio
of Increase In this disease was maintained.
It would do more towards solving the race
Question than anything which might be
named or devised.
It was held that the liquor interests of the
country are largely responsible for the ex
tensive use of alcohol In patent and pro-
prletary medicines, since the desire for
liquor must be created and maintained In
on way or another and the uae of alco
hol In medicines Is conceded to be on of
the best' subterfuges that could be thought
of. ,

Mr. W. P. Harford, MlssUnary. talks
Tata 'abject.
. Mrs. W. P, Harford, who spent several
years as the - private secretary of a mis
sionary, delivered an address yesterday
forenoon at Kountse Memorial church on
tha subject of "Christian Imperialism."
Mrs. Harford told of the rapid strides
made by Christian missionaries In all parts
f ths world In the aiding In tho conversion
of the heathen. In support of her belief
that the evangelisation of the entire world
la near at hand ah cited the Immense
concourse of missionaries who were pres
ent at the . conference of foreign missions
In New York three years ago and the mes
sages of good work accomplished which
they brought with them. She said thia
wss the largest conference ever held In the
history cf the world and that the next
would be still larger,
. The. speaker produced soma strong argu
ment to prove that Christianity must tri
umph In the end as It is tight and all
other' beliefs, ' Including agnosticism, ra
tionalism and pantheism, are wrong. She
sa!t that- tha missionary is the hand which
Is extended to the heathen and the church
only help to reach out that hand. She
believes that every effort ahould be made
by the 'people who stay at home to help
xtend the hand a little farther so that It
may . reach the uttermost parts of tha
earth.
In the freeing of Cuba by the United
States Mra.. Harford saw a good aign of
the progress of Christianity. - She com
pared thla act f a great government with
the acta of governments under, similar
conditions In the past and left her hearers
to draw their own inference, which she
thought so plala a' child could under
stand.

UIDEOXS MEET AT FIRST CHl'Rl'H.
rhrlatlaa Kalghts of Grip Close Their
Convention Series. .
The Oldeons, the Christian Travellngmen's
association, held a meeting last night at the
First Methodist church. W. J. Hill, state
superintendent, presided. Mr. Hill resides
In Lincoln. .
After Rev. E. Comhle Smith, pastor of
First church, announced that It was a
pleasure that the regular services were dis
pensed with and the church placed at the
service of the Gideon delegates, who have
been holding convention In this city at the
Young Men's Christian association rooms,
Mr. Hill read resolutions thanking the
press, the clergy and the Young Men's
Christian association for favors and kind
nesses shown and then Introduced J. H.
Nichols of Lincoln, who has all data per
taining to the Oldeon movement at his
finger tips.
Mr. Nichols told how the movement be
gun in the year 1892 In the dingy little office
of a hotel In Boscobel, Wis. Three men
who had grown weary of the devil and his
ways, and traveling men at that, conceived
the Idea of organizing a clan pledged to
Ood and the cause of Christianity. The
growth of the movement, he declared, had
been so marvelous that reference to It bad
become proverbial. The Gideons were' now
4,000 strong and Invaded Canada and had
seventy local camps In large r.ities and
twelve state camps.
With characteristic real and fervor
Charles Palmer told his hearers of the
work the Gideons had accomplished and
of the good they Intend doing in the future.
"We are an egotistical lot," he declared.
"We believe In ourselves, and what travel
ing man Is a success who does not believe
In himself, his house and his line? The
Gideon movement Is a means to an end
and we are not after a multitude an en
ormous membership but we are after every
knight of the grip who Is Inclined to array
himself on the side of Christianity. Give
us the gospef divested of rhetoric, free'
from verbiage, clothed not In high sound
ing and meaningless phraseology, but sim
ply and lovingly spoken, and we will be
content. I stand today with Brother Budd
Robinson, whose one ambition Is to land
safely beside the Jordan river and to sit on
the bank and lot his feet hang down Into its
waters for 400 or 600 years. I am like the
old woman who, though short on logic, was
long on faith, when cornered by an agnos
tic on the Jonah whale story, said: 'When
I get to heaven I'll ask Jonah.' 'But sup
pose he isn't there?' suggested her agnostic
friend, and she replied, 'Well, then 1 11 let
you ask htm.' " f .

POLICE SHUT OFF THE CROWDS
Sergeant Stops Farther Sale af
Tickets at Theater to Pre
vent Stampede,
Somebody In the crowd Jostling about
Manager Gonden in the lobby cf the Krug
theater yesterday afternoon shortly after
I o'clock said, very distinctly:
"You're full. Don't take any more."
Mr. Gonden was reared In the prohibition
precincts of Iowa and was as dry and
sober as a crop bulletin. Se he felt piqued
and turned to tell the man to go hence.
The man proved to be Police Sergeant
Cook. Therefore Mr, Gonden hesitated,
and while he was hesitating the officer ex
plained that the remark referred only to
the theater, saying:
"I've been through the house and Its got
all It can comfortably accommodate. You'll
have to stop selling tickets, as we have
had orders to prevent Jams hereafter In
all the theaters. Some woman or child
might get hurt If .your aisles get choked,"
The manager gased dubiously at the Jong
Ineup still trailing from the box office and
said: .
"We've got room for some up In the
balcony. I don't like to turn 'era away.'
Aa he spoke he toyed suggestively with
a cigar that looked to be about the kind
the sergeant would smoke If he didn't have
anything, else to do with his money. But
the officer stood pat.
"No, I've been up there," he said, "and
you've got all that'a coming tu you. You'll
have to shut m off." ...
Accordingly the gate closed and the wait,
ing patrons with the. ready money had to
go away or play the future openings.
It Is perhaps the first Instance of the
police stopping a sale of theater tickets in
Omaha, and It Is worthy of note Just at
this time, because It shows what a "show
town" this is becoming, or, indeed, has
become.- From the east and aouth reports
are frequent of poor business. Omaha
wants the fun, has the money and Is will

OUTCOME OF TRAINING AND EXPERIENCE
Ills Notion KiempllSed la His Own
Career and that af the Com
panies He Is Associated
With.
When President Stuyvesant Fish of the
Illinois Central railroad told a body of em
ployes, some years bsck, that "big concen
trators of capital re not evils, "-and that
"when - the era of such combinations is
trttlons of capital are not evils," and that
better off than ever it was under the old
order of things," he was not merely voicing
a "capitalist" argument.
Ever since May, 1887 when he became
chief executive of the road, Mr. Fish haa
souaht to Identify with his own Interests
not only those of the shareholders, but
those of the men under htm. He has
learned to understand the problem facing
those who obey as well as those who
direct.
The age of 20 found him a clerk in the
road's New York office. At a recent gath
ering of financial mnguutes he naively said
thst, during this period of clerkship, he
fed and clothed himself entirely on the
allowance of $50 a month, to which Ms
father confined him. And the outcome of
this schooling was that, becoming a di
rector within five years, he was the com
pany's moving spirit long before the fifteen
years had elapsed which it took hlin to gain
the presidency.
Later-day remarks, traceable to these
early experiences, are many.
"When 1 first went to work, my country
men ownefl only one-seventh of the com
pany's stock. Now they own three-quarters
of It," he told a stockholders' meeting last
year, and then "I believe In American sup
port of American concerns." '
"The real wealth of a people Is Its brawn
and muscle, Its brain and wit, the land It
Uvea on and makes fruitful," Is another
comment.
His private life has the sturdy ring of
his speech. Although his wife is accorded
by common consent one of the highest
places in American social life, the appear
ance of his name In the society columns of
the newspapers Is as perfunctory as is his
presence at the functions thus chronicled.
Member of a score of clubs, a "clubman"
he most essentially Is not. It has even
been whimsically questioned whetber the
functionaries of these Institutions see him
with sufficient frequency to know who he Is.
His Interests lie entirely in the responsi
bilities intrusted to his charge. For the
welfare of the great concerns representing
the people's Investments, some 'one must
labor; and among the few prominent men
who prefer to do this themselves' Instead
of paying others to do It for them, Stuy
vesant Fish Is foremost. Mr. Fish is a
director In various railroads, bank and
trust companies, and is also a trustee of
The Mutual Life Insurance company of
New York, whose meetings he attends reg
ularly, and enjoys the consciousness of
having contributed In some degree to the
welfare of its hundreds of thousands of
policy-holders. The vast slse and great
reputation of The Mutual Life,' oldest In
America and largest In the vorld; draw to
Its service -the most conspicuous men in
the country, who feel complimented upon
being asked to Join its Voard of trustees.

ELLSWORTH .COMES CLEAR
rennell Ring Tonne Man Aeanltted
t Mnrderlna- 1avld llonaer
In September.
The Jury In Judge Kstelle's court which
had In hand the case of Charlea Ellsworth,
charged with the murder of David Houser
last September, after being out over
twnty-four hours. Saturday returned a
verdict of not guilty. The vote stood nine
for acquittal and three for manslaughter
during most of the time the Jury wns de
liberating on the enso.
Ellsworth lives In Council niufls. Ho has
alwsys resided with his parents, who stand
high In the community, and this was the
first trouble In which he has been con
cerned. Ellsworth's reputation hsd always
been fair. Houser and Ellsworth met st
a dance at Hill's roadhouse on the night
the murder occurred. They had been
known to each other before, and Houser,
like Ellsworth, resided. In Council Bluffs.
Houser took offense at Ellsworth dancing
with a woman with whom he was ac
quainted, and threatened Ellsworth. Ells
worth left the roadhouse shortly after
Houser, who had stopped by the roadside
and waited for Ellsworth's team to come
up. When the horses came alongside of
where he was . standing, Houser stepped
out Slid grabbed them by the heads. Ells
worth leaped out of the buggy and stabbed
him In the shoulder, severing an artery.
Houser was placed In a single buggy by
Charles Fosdlck, who was .with him at the
time the stabbing occurred, and sent on
with Irmtructlons to secure medical attend
ance aa soon as possible. The reason Fos
dlck did not accompany his friend wss
that he was with a woman who fainted
when the stabbing' occurred, and he re
mained by. the roadside to try and revive
her. After the woman came to, she and
Fosdlck started on . foot to Omaha. When
they reached the Missouri Pacific viaduct
on Sherman avenue they saw the buggy,
with Houser lying In the bottom, standing
by the side of the road. Fosdlck ran for
ward and found that Houser was uncon
scious from the Iobs of blood. He Jumped
in and drove the rig to the office of Dr.
Hobbs, on Sherman avenue. Houser died
about two minutes after being carried into
the office.
Ellsworth never denied that he delivered
the blow which killed Houser. but said
that he did It In self-defense. He was ar
rested in Council Bluffs when he drove Into
the livery barn where he had hired the rig,
about three hours after the stabbing oc
curred;' and while coming to Omnha with
Captain Mostyn told the whole story of
the affair.
After the verdict was rendered Ellsworth
thanked each member of the Jury and
passed out of the Court room.

PROPERTY RIGHTS OF WOMEN
Subject Is Treated la Address Before
Philosophical Society by G. IS.
Prltchett.
At the meeting of the Philosophical so
ciety, held at the Paxton hotel parlors yes
terday afternoon, George E. Prltchett de
livered a very Interesting address on the
"Property Rights of Women."
The general trend of Mr. Prltchett's -address
was to the effect that women en
Joy greater property rights In these mod
ern days than under the old common law
system, this ' being particularly true of
Nebraska, where Woman has absolute con
trol of her individual prbperty and a dower
right In the property of her husband, and
really stands In 'a' 'more Independent po
sition In that regard than her husband,
who cannot alienate any of his property
without the consent of his wife.
Owing to the lateness of the hour when
the meeting began, and considerable time
being taken up by Mr. Prltchett's address,
the paper was only briefly discussed. There
was a general de'slre that the paper, ' or
at least a digest of It. be published In the
near future. The political phases .of the
question were not treated upon nor did
the question of universal suffrage enter
Into It.

trains ars now running over the double I
tracks from Chicago to Red Oak, and It Is
expected thst the track will be completed
to the Missouri river early In the spring. ;
Part of the work on this section Is already
done.
The trains running between Red Oak and
Chicago are being operated by the block
system and without train orders, the Bur
lington being the first road In the west to
install this system, which goes a long way
towards preventing wrecks.
By the building of the double tracks
grades and curves have been eliminated
so far as possible. It is thought that when
tho system Is entirely double tracked be
tween Chicago and the river It will be the
cause of quite a reduction In the running
time of passenger trains. The trains will
be able to run at much greater speed when
the danger of collisions is eliminated by
the block system and the added safety of
having all trains on the same track run
ning in the same direct loa. The first re
duction In time will be made In the mall
train service and gradually tho running
time of other trains will be reduced.
