Dresher Brothers Doing Most of the "Critical" Cleaning Work Because Patron Feels Himself Safe. Dresher Brothers, the popular cleaners and dyers at 2211-2213 Far nam Btreet, were yesterday In receipt of the largest, finest and costliest array of ladles' ball gowns and gen tlemen's full dross suits erer stored beneath a single Omaha roof In a "'"ill6 this' happened a mply becaus9 cf the brilliant Ak-Sar-Ben ball of the night before. The crush, only natural at an affair as extensive as the Ak-Sar-Ben ball, would natural ly play havoc with dainty, flimsy gowns, etc., and fair owners of cos tumes worth thousands upon thous- -A AnUnra wr(. of Course, aUX- lous to have their finery again placed Into the pink of condition. Nine out of ten of the exquisite creations worn at Omaha's most spec tacular event were left at the Dresh er establishment simply because their owners were assured of Dresher Brothers' responsibility and that no concern in America Is better fitted to clean, press or otherwise restore a costly gown. This brings to mind a new plan lust originated by Dresher Brothers !an Insurance feature that comeB right Into line when costly gowns and other Items are concerned. Send in your exquisite frock, suit of clothes, or oven your costly Oriental rug, and it will be insured without expense to you from, the time it leaves your borne via . the Dresher wagon to the time it is again re turned to yon. Dresher Bros., under their new in surance plan, will properly reim burse you for any fine garment, etc., that may be destroyed by fire or lost through theft or burglary while be ing cleaned, pressed, dyed, repaired or while going to or from in their wagonB. Leave any garment here, knowing that you will be paid its actual value if lost or destroyed, JuBt as though the garment were insured In your own fcome. Then again, if you wish to have Dreshers clean or otherwise rejuve nate some extra fine gown, suit, rug or other Item, that you prize above the ordinary, yoa may have only to pay a slight extra fee to have the piece insured for any amount stated by you at the time the piece is left here. '' By this later plan of paying a trifling fee you may set your own valuation oa any article at the time you leave it, and Dresher Bros, will pay you the ful' stated amount in case of loss by fire, burglary or theft. Stop and realize the number ot safeguards thrown around your work at Dresher Bros.' plant and you will have immediate reasdn to send all of your winter clothes here for a com plete restoration. ; Always remember that Dresher Bros, not only clean and dye clothes, but repair or even alter them to conform with any style of the mo ment. 1 ; -' Dresher Bros.

The mural paintings are the work of Will Rau of New York City and Sullivan county, New York, known as "the farmer painter." Though he is but 17 year old, Mr. Rau has achieved aura!, Th Tou!r!i9 county commiiiioners are well satisfied , with the paintings, which have arrived and are being Installed by Mr. Rau and E. Phllllptoa of Philllpson & Co., New York Clt,y. Phil Upson & Co. has the contract for the murals. The series connlsts of four large murals showing living figures and four land scapes, the eight merging together to form one huge changing panorama. The first mural discloses an Indian camp. The redskins in front of their tepees see over the hills in the distance the approach of the white men. There follows a prairie landscape with a hard of buffalo in the middle distance. This landscape was painted by Mr. Rau from an actual scene on ' the farm of John Latenser, county building architect, the buffalo being the only element of " the picture that was not painted from life by the artist The following picture shows the ar rival of ' the white man, the travelers being at rest in the evening. The land scape succeeding depicts the next step in civilization, the clearing of the land of timber for agricultural pursuits. The fifth picture shows the farmers at work tilling tS jKil. Iu iuo dlaUuce are seen the log cabins of the farmers, ' where , once the only domiciles were Indian tepees. Again appears a land scape with its fields of bearded grain awaiting the reaper's scythe. The , sev enth view is that of the harvest field, the harvesters busy at their huge task. Eighth and last appears a landscape which shows In the distance the mod ern city of Omaha as seen by the artist from Council Bluffs. This with the first landscape of the buffalo wallow on the prairie shows the wondrous change the years have wrought in the west of which Omaha and Douglas county now are in the heart Burgess is Working uorDr. Spauldingior the School Board Now there are rumors ot disastrous happenings in the Board of. Education, tor J. II. Burgess, deposed secretary, has gone out . with his hatchet In his hand and is trailing one Edmund I. Leaven worth, new member, elected uy the board Itself when W. T. Bourke ot the Eighth ward resigned upon the promise that Leavenworth would be placed in the va cancy and by ' Leavenworth's vote Bur gess would be ousted: Burgess is carrying the banner of Pr. 3. IC Spaulding, erstwhile member of the Board of Education and at one time president and as Mr. Leavenworth is none too popular, with his constituents it Is likely Spauldlng will be elected No vember 5, and that his election will mean the defeat of President B. Kolovtchiner for re-electton. Dr. HolovtoWner became president when C. R. Courtney resigned, being then vlos president and was In strumental in putting Burgess out .The Board of Education will have nearly 11,000.000 to spend next year, and none ot the present members Is of the opinion that the existing boaid cannot spend It They have laid deep plans to Improve and extend and modify the present educa tional system, to wipe out a deficit; of $30,000 and go. out of office or continue In office in the year 1913-1914 with a fat surplus. ' Burgess walked out of office quetly. but later made threats of revenge. Noth ing has been heard of him until this week, when with a splurge he began canvassing the Eighth ward, knocking young Leav enworth and boosting Dr. Spauldlng. ' ' ' Holovtchlner's friends on the board think 4t Is unfair, : The entl-Holovtchlner crowd are sitting tight If Spauldlng wins a radical reorganisation ot the offi cers of the Board of Education may re sult If Leavenworth pulls through the board will pursue the even tenor of Its present way. . . v -mnmmum 2z 5ftf?mfmH Simply delicious twice as much DIAMOND CONDENSED SOUP By buying the soup that has no water, you don't have to pay freight on the water and you get more soup.

Russian Arrested Singing LoyeSongs Viotor Mschordobadge, a Russian rider employed by the Irwin wild west show, was arrested last night charged with en deavoring to become acquainted with Miss Tlllie Nelson of 224 South Sixteenth street without the usual far'malltles. Miss Nelson said the man followed her from the end of the Sixteenth street via duct to her home, and after she had gone in the house set out on the gate poet singing love songs. ; He denied the charges, and said he was acquainted with many girls in the city, and would not think of Insulting a woman on the street - SUPERINTENDENT GRAFF ' DEFENDS VERNACULAR Superintendent Graff, speaking to 500 school teachers st the Young Women's Christian association auditorium yester day afternoon,' urged observance of the birthday of James Whitcomb Riley with short programs in the schools Monday afternoon, for the reason that Riley has written more understanding of children than any other poet Superintendent Graff read Riley's de fense t writing in dialect In which he held that it was the most human and ef fective manner of reaching the hearts ot the people. . It may seem hard to reconcile the fact that In the morning- we teach the rules of grammar and then In the afternoon have the children recite poetry that vio lates every rule of grammar." But the superintendent defended 'the course with Riley's own words. , Too much convention attempts to make the boy conform to the unnatural boys of the books: too great restriction of his liberty and the scorn of his "vul gar naturalness" will not enter Into the observance of Riley day Monday if the Idea of Superintendent Graff is carried out .

Bryan Denounces the Patriotic Trio WICHITA, Kan., Oct 6.-J. P. Morgan, the financier, came in for scathing denun ciation In William 3. Bryan's trip across central Kansas today. From Llndaborg, where he began the day, to Wichita, where he ended tonight Mr. Bryan kept up a steady attack upon Mr. Morgan and characterised him aa "Patriot No. 1". In all the Nebraakan delivered ten speeches. i"Perkius Is Patriot No. V said Mr. Bryan in Ms address at Iindsborg. "Perkins is now neglecting his business to elect a president who will look after the trust magnates' children. I assign second place to Mr. Morgan, the dls tlngulshed financiers who will, therefore, enter the cell of the public memory as Patriot No. 3. .... . "Mr. Morgan declares he gives to campaigns purely out ot regard for the publia welfare. He does not give to democratic campaign funds almcly be. cause he regards democratic vur-cesa aa a menace to the country's welfare. It will shame the selfish and sordid to look upon this self-carved statue standing out aeainst the sky Morgan, the uns-slfish. the disinterested, the patrlotlo cltlsen, who devotes all his spare time to our. chasing the election of proper presiden tial candidates. How could Perkins have the heart to dissolve partnership v with hlmT Has be really done soT" At Wellington Mr. Bryan turned to Colonel Roosevelt s relations with Mr. Morgan. "Morgan gave five times aa much for Roosevelt's campaign as for Taft's," said Mr. Bryan, "thus showing which he considered the most useful to his in teresis."
