LINCOLN. March l.-(8peclal Telegram.)
Although the senate committee on muni
cipal affairs agreed last night to make the
cnangs In" the Omaha charter whlch have
been' demanded bit' a number of business
men an3 cltlxens. Harry B. Zlmman ahd
Fred D. Wead appeared before Jt and
asked, for hearing . In .Omaha Saturday
night to show a sentlrrlent In Omaha strong
enough to discard the charter altogether.
Mr. Zlmman declared that the charter,
even'- with- the amendment, was- entirely
out of harmony with the wlahea of Omaha
people and that If a meeting could be held
In -Omaha Saturday night the legislature
would be coAylnWd that tha present taw
"is much- rrrereagreeable than the new me
as It now atands.
"Mr. Wead spoke for the Real Estate ex
change and protested against higher taxea
and otheY element In the bill. The com
mittee, through Chairman Horton. agreed
to decide tomorrow morning whether such
a meeting can be held.
City Attorney Rlne reviewed. . the . work
of the municipal committee that drew up
the charter, and declared that plenty of
time had been given to hear all reasonable
protests. In that position he waa sup
ported by Senators Tanner and Horton of
tHe cemmlMee N . .
Three Changes Agreed To.
A The, commit tea agreed upon three-substantial
amendments:
The section- of jthe law giving property
owners . a -right by. a three-flfthe petition
to decide the character of a new pavement
andTorder.' It. laid, .'which" waa struck out
In the house, wan put back.
The provision giving the city government
power to compel the repavlng of streets
within .4.500-f set of the city -hall was put
back.' as it stands in the present charter.
Three salaries. were raised: The mayor Is
to get 5.000 instead of $3,000: the chief of
police, 13.000 instead of $2,500. and the
health commissioner $3,600 In stead of $2,500.
John L. Kennedy and W. F. Baxter,
representing jropeHy ownera-and the Com
mercial ' club, spoke for the amendments.
Only, Horfou. . Tanner and Selleck of the
committee' were present.
,' - ComnslMloa Form- Heart.
"After hearing the arguments for a com
mission -form of government for Nebraska
cities.' particularly -under the bill backed
bv the Omaha Ad club, the house commit
tee oa cities and towns decided last night
to have one more session upon the subject
tomorrow- night 'and final argument! will
then be heard. The bill will probably then
be recommended ' for passage.
The chairman of the committee, John
Morlarty- of Omaha, and R. K. Sunderland,
representing the Ad club, got Into a heated
contention Just before the adjournment
over the delay and some members of the
committee started to get through a report
at that moment without waiting for the
chairman, but moderation finally prevailed.
Bill la (hanaed.
The bill waa amended by McKlssIck of
Gage to give small cities three commis
sioners Instead of five. This change waa
seconded -by -Charles Abbot, -city attorney
of Fremont, and Waa agreed to by the
committee.
The Omaha advocates of the bill, Sunder
land and Henry Gerlng oftho Ad club, and ,
'the author of the measure, John P". Breen,
discussed It "almost entirely from the
Omaha standpoint, hut representatives of
smaller cltlea Insisted that the bill means
Imtich to them. Beeatrlce men. W. 11.
fanan and J.' A." Kees. succeeded In getting
In an amendment giving small cities the
right to fix their commissioners' salaries.
Tha initiative and referendum clause which
has been asked for by a number of friends
of the principle waa Inserted at the request
of C. W. Metzger of Cass county, who in
troduced the bin In the house.
Mi rlarty-wanted delay because City En
gineer Craig of Omaha, " Mayor Dahlman
and other opponents of the bill desired a
chanoe to apeak. City Attorney Rlhe waa
present, but offered no comments. Colton
of York, and Eastman of Franklin urged
Immediate action, but finally agreed to
wait one more day.

waa created by Captain Austin M. Knight
president of the- Naval Ordnance board,
when, In testifying In hla own behalf to
day on charges ef neglect of duty In con
nection with the sinking of the monitor,
Puritan, following an explosive test under
his direction, he flatly contradicted earlier
testimony by Rear Admiral V. A. Mar
shall. Admiral Marshall bad said neither
i Captain Knight nor anyone else bad no
tified blm of anything . concerning the
Puritan at the conclusion of the testa.
Captain Knight testified that he tele
phoned Admiral Marshall notice that the
testa had been concluded and that the
ship was ready to be taken to the Norfolk
navy yard. He aaid he recognised the ad
miral's voice at the telephone, the admiral
saying: "This Is Marshall."
Captain Knight also aaid he had done
everything necessary, so far as his duty
required that he would not have fired
the ' explosive unless thinga were ready.
IK said Admiral Marshall, whom he met
on the atreet. told him everything was all
r 11 hi and had added, seemingly little re
sentful: Pont you worry about that
You look out for your part and

"Holding
Back" Famous Hakes of Pianos
In spite of my former "confessions' Rood, hon
orably constructed pianos of famous makes are to
be nad at most a. . piano store in Uie laud.
EVKRY piano concern retains the exclusive sell
ing of at least ONB reputable instrument, but tha
trouble is this GOOD make is often "HELD BACK"
to further the sale of another that may bring more
profit.
Some concern that you have grown to place con
fidence In may have the agency for the 'SO-AND-SO'
Piano an instrument known wherever pianos are
known a good, true, absolutely reliable make.
Borne day you may make up your mind to buy a
piano and you visit that concern, saying: "I should
like to hear the 'SO-AND-SO' Piano."
-. A delighted salesman will take you in tow, and
will, of course, lose no time showing you the SO-AND-SO'
Piano. He plays a number of chords and
fancy trills upon it and YOU then hear the BEST
piano In his store.
'But, as soon as he gets you interested, be
"switches." While the glorious tone of the 'SO-AND-SO'
is still ringing in your ears, he will say:
"Yes, the 'SO-AND-SO' IS a fine piano, but here is a
'SUCH-AND-SUCH.' Let's see how you like IT!"
When he gets you before the 'SUCH-AND-SUCH'
he dilates upon its goodness; he enthuses;
he infers that it would be folly to have any other.
As a rule the 'SUCH-AND-SUCH' is the piauo he
is making the moat money on; in many cases it is
even a 'stencil' piano.
(In one of my former "confess'ons" you will find
a complete expose of the 'stencil' piano. Have a
care! ALWAYS look for the maker"s name cast
on the INTERIOR metal plate.)
Now isn't it peculiar? Here such a concern as
I speak of will deliberately advertise and upbuild
Us OWN reputation upon the laurels gained by some
eminent make; and when you are brought TO their
salesrooms by reason of the flawless reputation of
this piano, you are encouraged to buy an entirely
DIFFERENT, less known Instrument.
It isn't right! It isn't doing justice to the
eminent make! It isn't fair to YOU, the purchaser.
It in a manner depreciates a well deserved reputa
tion. Of course, there is no LAW against such prac
tices only a moral law but it isn't right. Now
IS it?
Mind you, I am NOT taking the credit away
from the music trade as a whole there's a LOT of
honor left in the business but there's also a lot
of Hocus Pocus. All I want YOU to do is to see
that you get at least ps GOOD a make of piano as
the make you have in mind when you enter a sales
room. '
The MORE really famous makes a piano houss
carries, the more SAFE you are in 'buying there.
In such a case there is "safety in 'numbers." If,
for Instance, you are shown a line of instruments
that includes the genuine old "Boston Mado" dick
ering & Sons, the Ivers & Pond, Packard, Kurtz
man, Henry S. & G. Lindemaa, Harvard, or Hunt
ington, there is small chance of a salesman sell
ing you a less dependable instrument.
THE BENNETT CO. of this city carries all of
the above high class and absolutely reliable makes.
