MM
Louisrilla Commander of Knighta Templar
VisiU Omaha.
ON THE WAY TO TRIENNIAL CONCLAVE
One Car of the irrlal 'Train oa
Which the Knights Travel I
Loaded with All the
Com fort of Life.
A special train of nix elegantly appointed
coaches which came In over the IUlnolt
Central lust evening brought the third
large delegation of Knights Templar who
will pass througTi the Omaha' gateway to
Ban Francisco, where the twenty-ninth tri
ennial conclave of the order begins on Sep
tember 6. There were six coachea of
knighta, many of whom are accompanied
by wives and daughters. They represent
Ijoulsvllle commandery No. 1 and are 100
strong. This commandery Is of special in
terest at this time. While detached bodies
of knights have been passing through the
city for several dnye, this is the first or
ganised body to pass through the city In a
special train.
The commandery has a drill team, which
Is entered In the prize contest at San Fran
cisco on the second day, and while there
are six or seven other teams entered, the
Ixjulsvllle team Is confident of carrying
away the first honors. The drill master Is
.Frank Fehr, and the guides are J. C. Stone
land Henry E. Teley. The commandery ex
pects a warm reception when It reaches
California. Louisville set a warm pace at
the conclave held In 1901, and It Is under
stood the Califo-nlans expect to capture
the laurels and go on record as past mast
ers In the art of entertaining.
Reach 'Frisco Tuesday.
The commandery expects to reach San
Francisco on next Tuesday morning, and
will be met by a mounted commandery
which will escort the members to the new
fit. Francis hotel. The members have al
ready had a taste of what la In store for
them, as they have been twice entertained
on' the way by brother commanderles. At
Lafayette they were met at the depot by
a brass band and the republican nominee
for governor of Indiana, Mr. Hanley, made
the principal speech Upon reaching Omaha
the party scattered and visited various
points of interest about the city.
The knights will spend a day at
Denver and at Salt Lake City. They will
vlHlt the Yellowstone park on the way back.
Denver's drill team captured the big prize
at Louisville three years ago and the word
has gone out that Denver has not forgotten
the event and proposes to Impress the fact
upon the knights when they reach the
city. While there they will make a trip
to Colorado Springs and visit Pike's Teak
and the other points o Interest In Colo
rado. At Salt Lake they expect to make
a trip to the American Dead sea and visit
various points of historical and municipal
Interest which abound In the Mormon cap-
IIUI
Points About the Train.
The commandery left last evening at
9:30 o'clock over the Rock Island and at
Denver will take the Rio Grande, con
tinuing the Journey west from Salt Lake
over the Central Pacific. The most Inter
esting coach on the whole train Is un
questionably the forward car. This car
ries the trunks and some of the fireworks,
and as there are numerous cases of the
latter filled' with the finest Imported
brands, the knights expect to keep com
fortable providing the Ice holds out. Upon
the return trip the party will take a run
down to Los Angeles and stop at all the
principal places of Interest along the coast
as! far , a .Portland.,., From that point the
trip east will be begun.
During the pilgrimage Louisville com
mandery Is In coninrand of Eminent

commander and whose popularity is largely
responsible for the large number who will
make the pilgrimage. The other officers of

Movement On) In Earnest.
The movement of Knighta Templar for
the triennial conclave In San Francisco Is
now on In earnest. Nearly every through
train for the ccaat Is carrying uniformed
members of the order and many of the
trains have special cars and many special
trains are scheduled over the various roads,
twenty-one over the Union Pacific alone.
Wednesday morning one of the Union Pa
cific trains carried two special coachea
with a Pennsylvania delegation represent
ing Philadelphia commandery No. 70. Thero
were forty members In the party and they
expect to visit the Yellowstone park and
spend as much time as possible In the ln
termountaln country.
During the night, however, a special
train went through with the grand com
mandery of New Jersey. The party was
100 strong and tho train was made up of
a baggage car, dining car and four stand
ard sleepers. This party also will spend
considerable time In sight-seeing and, like
the other pilgrims, live upon the train In
stead of hotels until the coast Is reached.
The specials are provided with every com
fort that can add to the pleasures of the
trip across the country.
JUDGE BEATING PREACHERS
County C'onrt Rooms Popular Resort
(or Couples Hit by Cnpld'a
Darts.
County Judge Vlnsonhaler's office Is fast
becoming the Hymeneal altar of Omaha.
Unless the Ministerial union of the city
takes prompt measures to turn the tide
of marriage-seeking couples the other way,
the members will lose a considerable source
of revenue.
Cupid Morrill was kept working overtime
yesterday afternoon, winding out licenses,
and the court performed four wedding cere
monies. So often has Judge Vlnsonhaler
been called upon of late to bind lovers and
sweethearts together that the clerks are
seriously considering the question of get
ting a wagon load of artificial orange blos
soms and roses, so that the court cham
bers can be permanently transformed Into
a wedding chapel.
A room also Is needed which can be used
as a boudoir by brides-elect and their maids
In which to make lightning changes from
street gear to wedding gowns. Yesterday
Cupid Morrill had to vacate his office three
times to enable young women to make
themselves presentable at the wedding cere
monies which they were to attend. One
prospective bride, Miss Myrtle Mossle of
VaJley, Cans county, entered the clerk's
room, chased out the attaches and then
donned her wedding finery. When she
emerged she was radiant with smiles and
was attired from head to foot In the white
toggery suitable to the occasion. Then,
accompanied by a large delegation of
friends, she and Philip E. Trltsche, the
lucky young man. proceeded to the judge's
office and were married.
"It was awfully Inconvenient to make a
change in that room," giggled the bride to
one of the maids, "but I did so want to
look like a bride when the ceremony was
performed that I Just made up ray mind
I would."
Clerks Clyde C. Sunblad and Martin L.
Sugarman have been called upon so often
to officiate as best man that they are now
adepts at it. They are both getting weary
of standing up attired In negligee shirts,
light summer trousers and low shoes, and
are thinking seriously of making a requisi
tion on the county for clawhammers and
patent leathers.
SIMON GOETZ LAID AT REST
Pioneer Cltlaen Burled at Pleasant
Hill Tribute Written by
B. II. Harrows.
Funeral services for the late Simon
Ooets were held yesterday at 2 o'clock p. m.
from the residence, 2913 Mason street, a
very large number of friends and acquaint
ances being present. Rabbi Frederick Cohn
conducted the services and delivered a
short eulogy. Burial was at Pleasant Hill
cemetery. The pallbearers were Morltz
Meyer,, Sol Bergman, H. B. Neely,. Harry
Steele, C. IS. Burmelster and Simeon Bloom.
B. H. Barrows Composed this tribute to
Simon Goats: "The life of Simon Qoetx for
twenty-five years in this community was
Its own best exemplar a good life, a
hearty, genial man, a record of good deeds,
of kindly, unobstrualve, never-falling, lov
able charity to all and toward all, an ac
complished man In world citizenship, far
beyond the reckoning of the casual "ac
quaintance; known only to his Intimates
as the thoughtful, ' quiet companion who
seldom unbosomed himself and rarely dl
cussed thoee weighty and serious problems
which confront us all. But his cheerful
optimism shown clear and true amidst the
baffling mysteries. His unny-hearted dis
position was a. tonic; and he had known
sorrow and Ingratitude and the selfishness
of men himself. He seems to me to have
been a high type of that race who have
been for so many centuries an Intelligent
force and power In the world. A gentle
life, well roundod to the very end: an
Israelite, Indeed, In whom there waa no
guile."

TAX PUBLIC FOR POLICE AID
Bill Contemplated to Promote Belief Tund
from Taxation.
MAY GO BEFORE NEXT LEGISLATURE
Chief Donahue Advocates Such Mras
srr, W hich la uararated liy Present
Demoralised Condition of
the Force.
According to Chief of Tollce Donahue an
effort will be made nt the next legislature
to rrovide a source of income by taxation
for the police relief fund. This fund Is for
sick, death and funeral benefits for mem
bers of the force nnd Is supplied through
entertainments given under the auspices of
the policemen, one-fourth of the rewards
paid to them, revenues from the sale of un
claimed property and public subscription.
At present there Is only about u,Mi In the
fund, which Is regarded as far too little.
During the last year four pollc men have
dlod, causing the payment of J.VW Insurance
and 1100 for funeral expenses In each case.
Some weeks ago the Board of Fire, and
Police Commissioners authorized a benefit
ball to be given on or nbout November 13.
If satisfactory arrangements can be made
the ball will be given In the Auditorium.
At present five members of the force Bie
absent on sick leave. They are: Sergeant
Gibbons and Officer Vanderfort, who ure at
Hot Springs, 8. D. ; Officer lnda, nt Ex
celsior 6pi 1 rigs, Mo., and Officers Flsk and
Hudson. The lutter Is 111 with symptoms of
typhoid fover, while others have severe
cases of rheumatism.
"I have never known a tlmo when the
force has been so broken up by sickness and
deuth," said Chief Donahue. "More officers
have been laid up with rheumatism than
ever before, and they are nil In bad shape.
I can only account for It by exposure and
sudden changes in the weather."

Omaha Firm Gets Contract.
Mr. John M. Larsen. president of the
Larsen Ice Machine company, has just re
turned from St. Louis, where he was called
In conference with Chief Special Agent
Jamee L. Farmer of the United States
board at the Louisiana Purchase exposi
tion, regarding a modern cold storage plant
for the government exhibit of animal hus
bandry, where Bpeclal fed cattle will be
slaughtered nnd beef dressed and stored
In the most scientific manner. It. of course,
goes without saying that every prominent
builder of Ice making and cold storage ma
chinery In the country were more than
anxious to land the plum, on account of
the prestige to be gained. Mr. Larsen se
cured the contract and has reason to be
prrrod of having the government select his
machine, paying liberally for the same,
when others would have considered them
selves well paid by the advertisement alone.
Mr. Larsen itates that the plant will be
In operation after Soptember 12, and can
be found In the Live Stock Congress hall.
The Larsen Ice Machine company hns just
closed a contract with .Armour &'Co. for
a 75-ton refrigerating plant, to be Installed
at Jacksonville, Fla. Armour & Co. al
ready have a great many plants In opera
tion built by the Larsen company, but this
Is the largest machine west of the Mis
sissippi. Inasmuch as,,,Ajra,our & Co. are
the largest users of tea machines in the
world, and therefore very competent judges.
Their continued orders speak well for the
merits of this Omaha "production.
