called to the. woman to climb through tha
window to safety. Their advice seemed to
drive the unfortunate woman Into a greater
State ' of distraction and she sped from
no , end ' of the ledge to tha other
surprising those below with her marvelous
aure-footedness and daring. To add to the
terror of the woman many of the Inmates
of the hotel began to open their windows
to see what waa the matter and no sooner
did she see a window open than she would
run ta It, screaming at the top of her
voice. Kvecy moment the crowd expected
to see her fall and hastily obtaining blan
kets, held them under the ledge ta catch

be reassured by his presence, she climbed
back Into the hotel through one of the
windows. ' ' ' ;
Trembles Jnat Commenced.
Her troubles were not ended, for under no
Circumstances would she go back to her
room, saying that the place was peopled
with shadows who talked to her and
slandered her. One man In tha crowd said:
"Take ber there by force." No sooner did
she hear this than all her old terror re
appeared, and, fighting like a demon, she
broke from the men, after knocking two
of them down. She fled to one window and
stood there panting and moaning. The man
who had advised force, under the impres
sion that the woman was going to throw
herself out. Immediately gave chase. With
a loud soream she Jumped from the win
dow, but fortunately came onto a fire es
cape, When she saw the man appear at
the window she desperately swung herself
ever, holding onto the fire escape with her
handa. The people below shouted to the
man to go back, and when be had left
the window she allowed herself to be
caught and taken to the -police station
without any further trouble. At the police
station she Suddenly - dropped over and
aank into a sound sleep and the police -surgeon
discovered that she bad taken a large
amount of chloroform liniment which she
kept for neuralgia. After working stead
ily on her for some time all danger from
that source was removed, and the woman
was given a bed In the matron's depart
ment. Conld Give No Reason.
Later In the evening when she had
calmed down she said that she, did not
know why she had taken the drug or
climbed out onto the ledge. At times she
talked coherently, but at others she would
Shudder and moan that the shadows In
her room were slandering her. She said
that she waa to have'' been married next
week to a piano tuner who travels through
tha state and was working at her trous
seau when ahe lost her mind. '
Tha authorities at the hotel say that ahe
Is a dressmaker and has the reputation of
being very Industrious and painstaking.
She never bad any visitors with the excep
tion of her fiance, and did not mingle with
the other guests at the hotel. There la
no quarrel between herself end her prom
ised husband. Mrs. Boyd told the police
that ahe suffered from nervous diseases for
some time and her Insanity is put down
to that cause. She formerly worked as a
dressmaker In Colorado, ooming to Omaha
thla spring.
DAHDRIFF CAUSED Bf. A GERM.
A Hew Discovery that Kills the Germ
and Prevents Baldness.
Pretty nearly all the hair preparations
for dandruff have some merit In allaying
Itching of the scalp, and In being a fairly
good dressing for the hair, but there Is
only one that recognises what causes dan
druff, falling hair and baldness, and that
destroys the cause, a little germ and that
la Newbro's Herplclde. This germ eats Its
way Into the scalp. It digs up tha scalp
Into little white acales. Unless It Is de
stroyed there's no . permanent stopping .of
falling hair and euro of dandruff and, bald
ness. Newbro's Herplclde kills the germ.

VARIOUS IMPROVEMENTS ARE DEMANDED
Parks, Sewers, City Hall and Other
Sag-gestleas Are Given Consid
eration and Rapport by v
Varlons Advocatea.
The mass meeting called for last night to
discuss the proposition to voto more bonds
was attended by about forty resident.
Colonel C. M. Hunt was called upbn to
occupy the chair and II. M. Christie 'acted
as secretary of the meeting.
W. C. Iimbert, city attorney, opened the
proceedings by advocating a system of
parks, a city hall and a better sewer sys
tem. He stated that the money now paid
for rent on the present city building would
pay the Interest on the money Invested In
a city building.
John F. Schults, speaking as a member
of the Park board, advocated the purchase
of grounds for parks. As for a city hall,
Mr. Schults said that he thought the city
needed one and that there was no doubt In
his mind but such bonds would sell.
Myles E. Welsh, a former member of the
city council, advocated the bonding of the
city for sewer purposes and for a city hall
building.
I C. Olbson was heartily In accord with
the propositions Insofar as the city's
finances would permit.
Henry C. Murphy, when called upon, sug
gested that it would be better If lights and
water mains were laid In certain portions
of the city, than to buy ground for parks
at this time.
A. H. Murdock said that the people of
South Omaha wanted improvements, but
were not willing to pay for them. He
favored bonds for a city hall, as he asserted
the city has no suitable place now to keep
Its records nor a place where the city
officials can be accommodated. ,
Walter J. Elate, one of the heavy prop
erty' owners in the western portion of the
city, said that the city needed a better
sewer system than It now has, and he ad
vocated spending money for sewers In
stead of parka and a city hall Just now.
Martin Jetter was asked for an opinion
and he asserted that the city needed parka,
a city hall and sewers. He favored all of
the proposed bond propositions. ' .
David Anderson told about the danger of
annexation. He said that annexation was
to come sooner or later and that the peo
ple of South Omaha might Just ss well get
some Improvements while they have the
chance. He favored a city hall building, a
sewer to the river and the purchase of
parks.
N. D. Mann and T. 3. Nolan spoke briefly,
both favoring the Improvement proposi
tions. Richard O'Keeffe, county commissioner,
talked on sewers when called upon to
speak. He said that larger sewers wers
needed the most of all. He for one was
willing to vote bonds for sewers, but he
did not see the necessity Just now for a
city hall or parks until the health of the
city was property looked after. In con
cluding his remarks Mr. O'Keeffe said that
he favored the council securing the services
of a consulting engineer to lay out a plan
for sewers In this city. .
A few others spoke briefly, mostly about
parks. Before the meeting came to an end
Mr. O'Keeffe offered a. motion that the
mayor and city council be asked to em
ploy a consulting engineer for the purpose
of making plans for a ooraplete. sewer sys
tem In South Omahai " ";-

Testerday afternoon Mrs.' S. B, Christian
son, who keeps a boarding house at Twenty-sixth
end O streets, found the dead
body of August Skur In his room. The
police were notified and Undertaker Brewer
was summoned. , Upon looking over the re
mains ths undertaker found that death had
been caused by a bullet wound In the right
temple. A revolver was found on the floor
beside the bed. Suicide is the natural solu
tion of the death. Skur' waa a Flnlander
end until recently had been employed on
the railroad repair force at the stock
yards. When last teen Monday afternoon
Skur was on his wsy to his room. No ef
fects were left, as the purse which Skur
had carried for some time was empty.
Coroner Bralley has been notified. The
body la at Brewer's morgue.
Want Street Name Changed.
A petition addressed to tha mayor and
city council is being circulated asking that
the name of L street from Twentieth street
west to Twenty-fourth street be changed
to Missouri avenue. The petitioners, affirm
that the streets are so closely connected
and that the change in names frequently
causes confusion. As It street runs obly
from Twentieth street west to the city
limits there Is hardly any chance of a
change of name, although the counoll may
be Inclined to listen to the petition , on
account of the confusion that might follow
In case the Walnut Hill line of street cart
Is run through to ths Sarpy line.
Workmen Enjoy Annlveranry.

of United Workmen lodge No. 66 celebrated

bration In the auditorium. Those who at

of the most enjoyable of the entertain
ments given by thla lodge this year.

Chairman Maason of the Fire and Police
board announced last evening that tha
meeting of the board called for last night
had been postponed until tonight. While
there la aome business to come up before

A BIG CIRCVS IS C0M150.
The Great Wallace Show Itas is
noaaeed Its Pate for This City.
The Great Wallace Show, so appropri
ately styled the "Highest Class Circus In
the World," has completed all arrange
ments for its exhibition In Omaha on
Thursday, Jane J.
The Wallace Show has been reorganised
this year, and scores of new novelties and
features will be seen for the first time In
this country under the Wallace tents.
In past seasons the Wallace Show has
been so large that it was the equal of
any similar enterprise In magnitude, and
this season It will be even more bewilder
ing for the laymen, for it has been very
materially increased.
Many more cars have been added to the
Wallace trains. It may be readily seen
that the Wallace Circus proposes to retain
Its place In the very foremost rank of
tented amusements. Not only Is this true
regarding Its slse, but also of Its per
formance. Several exclusively new and
original features have been secured, and
though the Wallace Show has always pre
sented a first class performance, it
promises to present an unusually attractive
program.
The representative of Alfred J. Cam
meyer, the great shoe merchant of New
York City, will be at the Her Grand hotel
Thursday and Friday, May 28 and 17, day
and evening, with a full sample stock of
his superior boots and shoes for men,
women and children. Cammeyer Is the ac
knowledged head of the retail shoe trade
of America and aends hla representative
from New York to show these superior
goods that have given him this solid pre
emlence. Come and examine for yourself
and order some of these shoes. You are
protected la your purchase by Cammeyer's
guarantee.
Gentry Brothers' Parade.
The street parade presented by Oentry
Brothers' Shows this season Is twice
larger than before. It is composed of
nine sections, each one complete in Itself.
Numerous kinds of muslo are interspersed
at Intervals in the pageant. Nearly every
clime is represented by some of its baby
animal potentates. Fine camels, comical
monkeys, dainty ponies, pretty dogs and
sagacious elephants make up one section
which surpasses the parade of most shows
to say nothing of the score or more of
gold bedecked chariots and miniature dens.
The consolidated parade of the Oentry
Bros.' Bhows is a sight worth seeing and
the little folks should not be denied this
privilege. It will start from the show
