In living alone at hn bom. 473 Seward
street, witlv ttte one rjop that her ion,
Krank D., gone tha aeven "?ars, will re
turn to hia grieving rnoyier. Leat the son
might jpom baclc fall to find her and go

for onry a few-mil nut at a time. At

' room, so that ha may know the old home
Is yot' haMtated and that a mother, anx
Jouslymwatta hia return... .
While Mrs. Wella haa rerelved the kindly
attention of neighbor for nearly a year,
"' ' many acquaintances have Junt taken up
i - the woman's cause In a vigorous manner,
as tho mother' mind la being weakened
. .,.y her constant vigil and worry. She Is,
however, yet hopeful the' son will return,
and It Is this hope atone that (uatalno her.
Home of .Mrs. Wells" neighbors have
y mlled on Chief of olice Donahue with a
'' view of locating the absent ton.
Whatever Mrs. Wella knowa of the
"whereabout! of her aon. If she knowa any
thing, she adroitly keeps to herself, as
. neighbors have made many unsuccessful
attempt to have he tell the secret of the
son'e present absence. From what haa
been gathered from her remarks, there Is
something of a cloud hanging over the
son's present movements. The best In
formation that can be sec u rod from the
woman is her son will come back, and when
ha does return he will not find her absent.
Boat Kmbarka on Voyage.
It la known that Frank D. Wella, for
merly employed In an Omaha mechanical
engineer's office, left the. city during 1897.
when he was 20- years of age, in a bouse
boat with, two companions. His mother at
the time gave him Koo. The young men In
tended going on some sort of an adventuro.
Shortly, after the boat left Omaha Mrs.
Walla received word that her aon had been
killed at 8U Joceph and the body bad
been burled. She went to St. Joseph, and
riewed the disinterred remains, which she
Mid -were not those of her aon. From that
time she will not or cannot say anything
further of the young man's whereabouts. .
Seven years ago Mrs. Walla had a beau
tifully furnished borne. The family was
moderately well supplied. But alnce the
absence of the son the mother baa been
forced to sell most of her treasures.
Fortunately, Mrs. Wells owns the two
story structure she now occupies, but.
having no means of support, neighbors
have looked after her for a year. Being
of a prouJ disposition, she only accepts
from certain persona and haa been grow
ing more neglectful of her own comfort aa
. the months have gone by. She refused to
consider the proposition of being taken to
the Old People's home.'
Before moving to Omaha, fifteen year
ago, Mrs. Wells was a teacher for years
In a Chicago academy. Iier husband, who
died a few months after coming here, waa
a professor. The aon, the only child, waa
q, graduated from the University of Nebraska.

WHERE IS GEORGE FALC0NER7
Qaeatlon Which Senator Millard
Would I.Ike to Have An
' awered at Once.
Where la George Falconer, formerly of
Hartlngton, Neb.T Is a question that Is In
teresting Senator Millard Just now.
Several mortha ago Senator Millard made
an Inquiry at the general land office at
Washington for Oeorge Falconer at the
letter's request regarding a land warrant
Issued to one Richard Falconer o Illinois.
Senator Millard received a reply from Land
Commissioner W. A. Richards stating that:
Land warrant No. ,(, . for 1 acres of
land, had been issued under the act of
May , 1S12, and that said warrant Is now
on our files. It was issued September H,
WW, In favor of Richard Falconer, upon
the southeast quarter of section 3. town
ship T, rane; 6, west. In the Military dis
trict of Illinois. On August 18. 1818. a
patent waa issued In favor of the war
rantee In full aatlsfactlon of the warrant.
If Mr. Oeorge Falconer desires Informa
tion respecting the present atatus oi-the
land ha should address one of tha county
officers and county treasurer of Hancock
county, Illinois.
The letter of the land commission was
sent to the last address of George Falconer
at Hartlngton, but has been returned un
called for, to Senator Millard, and he la
now anxious to know the whereabouts of
Mr. Falconer, aa the matter la evidently
of considerable Importance to him.

WANTS-PAY FOR HIS THUMB
Mechanic Thinks Two Hundred nnd
Forty.Flve Dollars Ought to
Bo Fair Price.
Oscar Paul Blesendorfer feels he should
have $245 from the Omaha Wood Workers
company. This Is In exchange for his
thumb, which he faels was fully worth
the money. It waa nice thumb and could
do a lot of tricks. It belonged to hi aft
hand. ........
Mr. Blesendorfer has begun a suit In the
county court, which he hopes will ( reach
the combination. He says October 1 he
waa put to work for the company at what
la technically called a "ahaper." The ma
chine, according to Ita nature, so he
affirms, was In tha habit of kicking. This
he was not told by the company, and
In all trustfulness began putting a mould
ing into the place where the knives work.
The machine would not stand for Mr.
Blesendorfer and kicked, and the shaper
mad hia left thumb look like the place
where a tree used to grow.

osition. Local brewers, with the exception of
MetaX Bros., are accuaed of being "tight"
with th men who are circulating petition
to get th algnaturea of thirty realdent

are threatened with Inability, to get th
required number of algnsra for their thre
saloona In the Third ward, ths other
brewera expect them to protest against
applications for licenses. Therefor they
hav determined to forestall Questioning
ef th signatures by having th resident
property owner certified to In th office
of the register of deeds.
Two dollar per petition la demanded for
the service in this office. Mets Bros, have
come over snd are willing to pay tha,
money, but the other brewers are holding
back, on the theory that ir the Met petl
tlons are found correct, thelra having th
same names, will be approved also.
Sufficient resident property owners hav
btn located to more than give the de
mand for thirty name on the petitions,
but th solicitor are sulking because they
