Will Protect EmrrtrncT HomKnl. As there seems to be some dans-er nf n rise In the, Missouri river city officials are preparing to lane steps to protect the emer gency . hospital at the foot of O street. This hospital la built on the sand and Is practically isolated. Last year when the high water came the hosnltal steward onri Ma family were compelled to move out as the water came within two Inches of the door step. This year the cltv nuthnH ties will protect the hospital by placing sacks of sand around in the form of a dyke. Tha expense of this dyke will not be much as the sand la handy and the street force can do the work of Ailing and placing tha sacks. Snow Morlsc Nicely. The thawing of snow Is not causing any . Inconvenience so far. It was feared that cellars would be flooded and that thero would be an awful time when the melting commenced. This trouble has been averted by the' street department digging gutters and opening catch basins., A dosen or more men In the employ of the street de partment worked yesterday in clearing gut jB-tanlcal Plants C ttU tk teeni af Lift as Diata. i 'aVecaiit experiments conducted by most eminent scientists, prove that light ia a great remedial agent; It ia essentially Nature's agent. It may be either aun light o' electric light, but it has a de cided' effect in helping nature to banish ' disease and restore health. Other scien tific men have proved that oxygen elec trifies the heart and can prolong lite. The people on this earth are susceptible to some laws which govern plant life. A plant cannot be successfully grown in tha dark. -A nan is seldom healthy and strong who lives in the dark or in sanleti rooms. After all. Nature's ways are found to be the best. Nature 'a remedies arc always beat for eradicating disease, and by this wo sneaa a medicine made of roots and herbs. They are assimilated in the stomach and taken up by the blood and are, therefore, the most potent means which can be em ployed for the regaining of lost health. VT. R. V. Pierce, consulting physician to the Invalids' Hotel and Suigical Institute, at Buffalo, N. Y., in many years of eaten ive practice, found that be could pin his faith to an alterative extract of certain plants and roots for the cure of all blood diseases. This he called tr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. Containing no alcohol nor narcotics, entirely vegetable, . this 'Discover? " makes rich r?d blood and is a powerful tiaaue-Duilder, giving the tired business man or woman renewed strength and health. Rapidly gi owing school-girls and boys often show Impoverished blood by the pimples or boils which appear on face or neck. To eradicate the poisons from the blood, and feed the heart, lungs and stomach on pure blood, nothing is so good as Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. , Don't allow the dealer to insult your in telligcnce by offering his own blood rem edy to yea instead of this well-known preparation of Dr. Pierce's. Ten chances is ouc he will substitute a cheap compound having a large percentage of alcohol in it.

A meeting of the democratic city central committee has been called for tonight at the office of P. C. Caldwell. It Is under stood that a chairman of the committee Is to be selected. From reports oh the streets George Rahn will be the chairman. Arrangements will be made by the com mittee for the school board primaries and some candidates who have Blgnlned their willingness to run will be considered. There Is some talk among the democrats of holding a mass meeting to select can didates. Col. C. M. Hunt said yesterday that he thought such a meeting would be held about March 1. At the present time the democrats seem to be at sea regarding the candidates for positions. Receipts Show Improvement. Receipts at the stock yards yesterday showed a big Improvement over last week's small showing. The run of cattle was not as large as expected, but advices are that with good weather the receipts will be large this week all along the line. As compared with the same date lost year cattle, hogs and sheep show a decrease In receipts. This Is due largely to the storms and the fact that stockmen have not been able to get to market. The prediction Is that from now on there will be a good market and Increased receipts. ( Local Merchants Pleased. South Omaha merchants were pleased yesterday to see the snow piles diminish ing In front of their places of business. Several merchants said that with a few days of higher temperature there would be an Increase In business. A few farmers managed to get Into the city on Saturday and bought supplies.

For bargain day on Wednes day the merchants are preparing a first clnss line of goods and the salea this day are expected to exceed thoqe of former bargain days. Mngle City Gossip.

CHURCH AND THE WORKMEN Effort Being Made to Bring Two OlasssB Together in Omaha, EXCHANGE OF DELEGATES IN OPERATION Central Labor Inlon and Ministerial Association Exchange with a View to Better I'nder standlng of Problems. For the first time members of the Cen tral Labor Union sat as fraternal dele gates In the weekly meeting of the Minis ter's association yesterday. They were Pres ident Louis V. Quye, Edward M. Birch and C. L. Burkett. In return the preach ers elected their president, J. E. Hum mon. Rev. E. Comble Smith and B. F. Fellman as delegates to the labor council. This condition was brought about by Rev. Charles Stelzle, worklngman's secretary of the Presbyterian Board of Missions, who Is concerned in bringing the churches and the unionist closer together. Rev. Stelzle talked to the association about the meas ures needful to Interest and help the work lngmen. Rev. B. -F. Fellman of Grace Baptist church caused something of a sensation when he announced that In his opinion various branches of Christian wik as now conducted, conflict, sometimes with a detrimental effect. Ho said that several young men who would otherwise attend prayer meeting at his church would not do so this week on account of a Young -Men's Christian association basket bull game. An arrangement so that the various mutual efforts would exert themselves I without conflict was much to be desired. he said, and upon his motion it was de cided to create a committee to take the matter la hand. Labor Unions and the C'bnrch. Rev. Stelzle congratulated the ministers on deciding to send delegates to the Cen tral Labor Union. "The possibilities in the exchange of relations and sympathetic co-operation between the men In labor unions and the churches are big with hope," said he. "They are tremendous. Scarcely any great, broad movement along social lines In the cities cannot be ac complished by such a force. There has been a great deal of misapprehension on both sides and one has been us much to blame as the other. The labor, unions have made mistakes. It Is true, and few laboring men will not admit It, but has not organized capital made mistakes and have not the churches? "One of the chief phases of the question Is the kind of a church that will most help the laboring mun.

Stella White, a colored woman living at 214V Cass street, was arrested yesterday ifternoon on a charge of larceny from the mi son of P. 1-.

The best men and women are none too good for this task. The average mis sion as a means of reaching the working man Is a failure. 1 don't wonder that the Independent workman, used to helping gov ern his own union, turns away from tho system of patronage that we usually find in the mission. Mistake Many Make. "The church Is only a means to an end. Unfortunately some of us seem to regard the church as an end, and place the churches where they will be the best sup ported instead of where they will most help the people. The labor question Is fundamentally a moral and religious ques tion, but If the church Is to reach the worklngman It must touch upon every point of his life and must minister to his social, Intellectual and material needs as well as to his spiritual needs. I don't know much about Omaha, but where Is there a place that a worklngman and his family can go at night, except to the cheat theater? Most of the churches are closed and the Young Men's Christian association doesn't meet the need. The success of this institution last named Is a striking rebuke to the folly of some churches. The churches that are engaging In this social work, studying the special needs of the communi ties they serve, ore the churches that ure reaching men." corps, and Mrs. Clark, Custer corps. This committee will meet with the association at Its next meeting, Monday evening, March 6. Miss Spencer, an actress and elocutionist now In the city on a vacation, tendered her services to the association to give a play or rtcltal within the next thirty days for the benefit of the monument fund.
