Bohemians to Give
Aid to' Countrymen
Who Are in Distress
At a mass meeting of Bohemians Sun
day steps were taken looking to the rais
ing of funds to aid the Bohemians who
have sustained serious losses by reason
of the war In Europe. At this meeting a
committee, of which Joe Mik is chairman,
was apoplnted to plan for a mass meet
ing to be held In Omaha September 13 at
Turner hall, South Thirteenth street.
At the mass meeting to be held there
will be a muBlcal and athletic pro 'ram,
interspersed with speeches by prominent
local Bohemians. Subscription will be
received and the, method of disposing of
the funds will, be determined. From now
until the mass meeting the committee
will meet dally, formulating the program
and working on a campaign for money
raising. The local Bohemians assert that their
native country is being overrun by the
warring armies; that the male cltlsens
are being forced into ranks of the Aus
trlans and that their property is being de
stroyed and the women and children sub
jected to great privation.
Kindel Would Have
the Western Parcel
Rate Equal Eastern
Congressman George J. Kindel of the
First district of Colorado and sworn
enemy to unfair freight, express and
parcel post rates, la in Omaha on his way
to Denver, where he goes to the bedside
of his sick wife. Mr. Kindel spent the
morning in the federal building, going
over parcel post rates and territories with
Postmaster Wharton. In the afternoon
he spoke at the Commercial club.
"Why is it that shippers can unload
nd reload at great saving in St Louis
and Chicago and not in Denver and
Omaha? I'll tell you. It'a because In
making the 'tones' or territories the
parcel post commission' acted without
Studying the problem.
"One thing especially that I am kick
ing about Is that the shippers In this
part of the west are not afforded an op
portunlty to use the parcel post as
cheaply as are the eastern shippers. I'm
aurprised that your Commercial club
lands for It- I am going back to Denver
and arouse our business men."

But Few Friends
Attend Funeral of
Old Time Citizen
i
Time was not many years ago, when
Lew Herman had much money and spent
it lavishly. His friends were legion and
never a beggar was turned from his door
without alms. But Sunday Lew Herman
waa burled and only three men attended,
so that It was necessary to get strangers
to act as pellbearers. His funeral cor
tege consisted of the pallbearers and his
sister, only surviving member of his fam
ily. He died In the county hospital.
Lew Herman was born In Omaha 54
years ago. He 4rwned a saloon on lower
Douglas street for several years, but after
the bridge was built across the river his
business waa ruined because his saloon
was near the river bank under the bridge.
He had but one leg, although he was
an excellent swimmer. Three lives are to
his credit, for he saved them from
drowning when death seemed certain.
Dlnny Lynch, Tom Flynn and Walter
Brandes were the only old friends of
Herman who attended- the funeral

Beet Growers Are
Hampered by Lack
of Seed for Fields
GRAND ISLAND. Neb, Aug. M.-tSpe-cial.l
The effect of the F.uropcnn war
upon the sugar market might have been
such aa to presage a decidedly profitable
beet ausar year In the Vnltcil Ptates
had tlie approach of the trouble only been
known sufficiently In advance to have
vouchsafed the preserving of n sufficient
number of "mother" beets over last win
ter. Hera use It was not. and owing to the
fact that only in a few states has the
production of beet seed been demon
strated practical In the pact, the beet aeed
proldem may not only prevent any ma
terial Increase In a very profitable busl
nesa but may largely reduce the acreage
of beets to be grown next apring.
Beet sugar factories report but a small
amount of the necessary seed on hand.
The local factory has about 28 per rent of
the amount needed for next year. In Cali
fornia, and more extensively In Washing
ton state, some beet neeif hmi twti ralH
lnhe past and Is being raised this year
from mother beets "wintered' In sound
condition and replanted last spring for
seed purposes only. Hut It Is not believed
that the amount of seed It Is possible to
secure, under the best of conditions, will
meet the entire country's demand.
The fear of the beet sugar managers Is
that even If there Is a cessation of war
befora the time limit on the Importation
of seed from Germany and France ex
pires, that country's crops will either have
been destroyed or at least so decimated as
to leave no seed over for export. The war
thus seems to favor the beet sugar In
dustry only, however, again to cripple It.

GEORGE MUCH MENTIONED

Interest Is centered on the meeting of the
republican state committee which will be
held at the Llndell hotel in Lincoln to
morrow evening, according to notices sent
out by Acting Chairman C. C. McNish
of Wlsner.
A few candidates are mentioned for the
position of chairman but ft ate Treasurer

to get away from the Job. The demand
seems to be so universal that It is not
probable that ha will succeed In eluding
the place.

urer and possibly a vice chairman with
the selection o feither IJncoln or Omaha

matters to ba taken up.
