LID ON SWELTER THIS TIME Administration Says the Bis Works) Most Close Down on Snndays, Despite rumors that the administration Is preparing to "back up" on Its Sunday closing program Mayor Dahlman and Chief of Police Donahue are discussing methods and forma of Us enforcement with the ex pressed determination of making the proc lamation as effective as possible In all walks of work and life In the c!ty When the matter was first brought to the attention of the mayor he thought It would he In Ms power to except certain occupations, and it was given out In a semi-official way- that one of the places which mlRht run on &jinday would be the Omaha smelter. The mayor haa now made j up his mind that thla Institution comes within the scope of the law and that unless he Is shown his error he will be compelled to cause the. smelter to observe the first day of the week as well as all other places of business not expressly exempt under the law. v When the last effort was made to en force the Sunday law the amelter was not required to cIomj because of a showing made by the manager that suspension of work for one day would cost the Institu tion several thousand dollars by reason of the furnaces being closed and metal con gealing. Tbts plea has not been made at this time, and It may not be made, but the smelter la scheduled for a vacation one day in each week. It Is the understanding around the city hall that the enforcement of the law In tts earlier stages will fall upon the heads of institutions ralhefthan upon employes,' I and that policemen wiill be Instructed to arrest proprietors, managers, superintend ents and foremen In the first instance. It Is the belief of the officials these men will give bond and that some attempt will be made to resume operations- pending a final decision of the case by the courts, but un less the official Idea changes, and It has changed once as It as the chief Is con cerned, the persons who undertake to op erate their houses pending decision of cases under the first arrest will be taken into custody again. This Is what Mr. Donahue says. A Pleasant Surprise follows the first dose of Dr. King's New Life Pills, the painless regulators thai strengthen you. Guaranteed. 25c. For sale by Beaton Drug Co.

V. LANE CLTS F EMOTION ' , ..--...,, .. 'Elected President 01 KOCKJ Mountain Bell Telephone Comp tny. HEAEaUAETXRS SALT LAKE CITY Resigns as Vie President aad Gea ernt Manager of Nebraska, with Which II Began aa Sladent. t 'iT. Vance Lane has resigned as vlca president and general manager of the Ne braska Telephone compan to assume the duties of president of the Rocky Mountain Bell Telephone company, with headquarters at Salt Lake City, to which position he has been elected. His resignation takes effect December 1, and was presented to the board of d'rectors of the Nebraska com pany Monday afternoon. The board con vened In annual session at t:S0. The resignation of Mr. Lane will bring promotions to two of the present employes of the comrany. W. T. B. Belt, who Is now superintendent, will be made general manager and A. 8. Kelly, at present the traffic engineer, will be promoted to the superlntendency. to fill the place occupied by Mr. Belt. The position of traffic en gineer haa not been filled yet. Mr. Lane's election to the new position was confirmed by the board of directors of the Rocky Mountain company, which met In Fait Lake City Saturday. Mr. Lane expresses the most sincere re grets at leaving Omaha and the Nebraska company, with which he has been connected for twenty-five years, but the new position and the remuneration were sufficient at traction to make him decide upon Salt Lake City as his future home. He has worked his way from a student to the vice presi dency and general managership of the company here and his1 leaving Is regarded as the removal pt one of the strongest pillars from the Institution. The man whom Mr. Lane succeeds at l Salt Lake is George T. Wallace, who was president of the Rocky Mountain company for nearly twenty-five years. He resigned to be relieved of the worry and exacting duties of active work- and to look after private Interests. I.Ike Losing Member of Family. "It seems like losing a member of the fam'ly," was the remark of Cnsper E. Tost, president of the Nebraska Telephone company, regarding the election of Mr. Lane to the Salt Lake position. The territory covered by the Rocky Moun tain Bell Telephone company comprises Utah, Wyoming, Montana and Idaho, a much larcer territory than the one over which Mr. Lane now exercises authority as vice president and general manager. The appointment represents a distinct pro motion and recognition of long and faith ful service. Mr. Lane was surprised when he learned It was to fall to him, he says. Mr. Lane Tias grown tip In the service of the Nebraska s Telephone company. All hla manhood years have been spent In the empoy of thIs concPrn. Au-U8t , at the age of 20, he entered the service of the comrany at Lincoln In the capacity of a student, receiving, of'eourse, no pay ex cept the prospect of employment. His first position was not long In coming to him, for November 1' he. was sent to Fremont as manager of that office., Knowledge W Meager, "Manager!"i recently' observed Mr. Lane In looking over the past. "Why, I didn't know enough about telephones to 'keep me busy thinking about them for a whole day, but I was terribly Intrr-sted and I have never ceased being. tercftily. Interested, have never ceased learning;' and trying to learn more about the business." Mr. Lane's tenure of office at Fremont was brief; he was transferred to Kearney as manager there, and he left there In 1884 for Council Bluffs, where hewas local manager for the Pottawattamie county, di vision until 18S9, when he came to Omaha as local manager. The bigness of the world was then be ginning to open Itself up to thla 'young man, whose advancement had been steady and continuous. As local manager of the Omaha field he applied that same deep In terest and spirit of Inquisitlveness that had marked him as a student, and It was not long until "the big boss" made him super intendent of the company, and from that position he was placed In the general men agers chair abouj 1897. This gave him control over the whole of the Nebraska Telephone company's territory, which In cludes this state, the Black Hills aectlon of South Dakota and Pottawattamie county In Iowa. Some two years ago Mr. Lane was elected vice president. In addition to his duties aa general rruinajer. Ha prob ably will retain that office as he goes west. Growth He Helped Prodaee. Something ot the growth of the com pany's business since Mr. Lane became local manager for Omaha may be found In a comparison of the number of telephones then and now. In 189 in the local Omal.a territory there, were Just 1,300 telephones and In tho whole territory when he as sumed charge as geneial manager, to use his own words, "I ara amazed on lookl-g up the records that we only bad 6,uC0 'phones." Today In the territory comprised In the Omal.a local sone there are 16.400 tele phones and In the territory over which he presides as general manager, Instead of being 5.000, there are 48,000 of the com. panya own 'phones, to say nothing of 40.0M) owned by companies with which tho Ntbrarka Telephone company has traffic rotations. Manifestly the multiplication of the num ber of telephones has meant the employ ment of hundreds of men and women to opoiate the system where dojens would do before. Today the company t Its plant In Omaha has S50 g'rls employed at ths switchboards, where In lto$ It bad about forty. And It has In the same proportion Increased the numler of Its clerical em ployes, mach'nlsta, operatives of various sorts, rj erta and linemen. In fact there Is no cotirarlson between the numbers, the dlffurence Is s- great. All th's must he related to fa'nt a true picture of the career of H. Vance Lane, whose life Is Appetite for Crabs piE codfish hu an enormous appetite for shell-fun, crabs and lobsters. He eats them alive and he eats them raw. He eats then all without in digestion Aiid jrovss fat He has a powerful liver. The oil from the cod's liver make Scott's Emulsion A natural power to digest and to produce flesh is in every spoonful. This power means new vigor and new flesh for those who suffer from wastinj diseases. AODraesiatsi SO, and 11.00 ae I I d '" Ij R .' . 4js- 1 .

In order to meet tjie exigencies of de velopment It became necessary In 1S9J for the company to leave Its cramped quarters In the Ramge block and move Into a build ing of Its own. That building stands at the southwest corner of Eighteenth arid Douglas streets and Is still occupied by the company, but It has doubled In size; In 1903 another bnlldlng adjoining, the same size, was completed and occupied. Then tt was the change In systems was made. From a branch terminal the company changed to a common battery system. This meant larger forces for the newer and better facilities which rendered superior service. This enlarged building, however, Is not adequate to all the demands of the company. It had to erect a spacious ware house at the foot of Farnam street and till lacks room. With the evolution of capacity the de cline in prices of service haa kept pace. Under the Lane regime the single resi dence telephone haa gone from J5 a month to $2.60 (that Is the rate will be 12.50 aa aoon as the state board confirms the sched ules submitted by the company). Business phones In the general sone have gone from tl20 a year to S4, 'and in the Omaha, ter ritory they are now $72 a year. "Carrying out the principle of the com pany, my purpose always has been to give the best service for the least money," said Mr. Lane. "One principle I have al ways kept before me was to study to please our patrons and another to give the most careful attention to complaints. It Is our Invariable rule not to allow the aame complaint to be made the asoond time." Pioneer la Nebraska. , Mr. Lane waa born at' Webster' City, la., In 1862. Though in his prime, he Is a Nebraska pioneer, for he came to this state In 1869. his settling point being Crete. He' obtained his education principally In Doane college at Crete and went from Crete directly to Lincoln to begin his course as a student In telephony. While a pioneer In the state, Mr. Lane Is "the" pioneer In the Nebraska Telephone com pany. His period of service antedates that of President Tost, who became con nected with the company as president In 1889. The relations between the two men have always been very close aiy) thor oughly harmonious and they both con template the separation with a feeling of sorrow. Act've and energetic In the affairs and interests of Orraha snd Nebraska always, Mr. lane's going will be a matter of con cern not alone to the company ha haa served so lo-g, but to the city and state as well.

CHURCH AND WORKWOMAN Why Latter no Not Attend nisrnsaed ' by Socialist Leader at Minis terial I'nlnn. "A Few Reasons Why Worklngmen Do ! Not Oo to Church," was the title of a peper read before the Omaha Ministerial union Monday morning by Mr. Mlchelsen. Mr. j Mlchelsen. who belongs In the socialist I party, arraigned the church in every poa ' slble manner for not being such a church : aa would draw the laboring man Irrea'stlbly Into lt folds and minister to his spiritual well-being. The ministers present received the ad drees In a very kindly and even thankful spirit, though they did not agree with hla Veasonlng. There were many clamoring for the floor to make answer, but only a few could be heard. It was pointed out by these that the church stands ready and anxious to meet fh work'ngman and to minister to his good; that the church Is do ing Its best, though It has Its limitations like all other Institutions and cannot lay claim to perfection: that the world Is not as bad as the speaker had painted It nor are the pe'lpls of Christian countries worse than oUiers, but quite the contrary: that the savage law of survival of the fittest obtains In savage and not In Christian countries, as the speaker declared It did; that ministers as a class are among the poorest paid men In the world and the fact that they may dress better and live better than worklngmen Is that they spend ni money needlessly.
