AFFAIRS ATJOUTH OMAHA
Lire Stock Sanitary Board Will
Consider Quarantine Matters
Monday.
PREACHER ASKS SALARY CUT
President James II. Bulla of the State
Sanitary Live Stork Board has railed a
meeting of the board for Monday at
Lincoln to decide whether the live stock
quarantine shall be renewed when the
present quarantine order dies on March 10.
There are two views contending for su
premaoy In deciding the matters. Stock
men here at South Omaha and in the
eastern part of Nebraska are said to fa
vor tha removal of the quarantine order
at the end of the present period of em
bargo. Petitlona to thla effect have been
circulated and freely signed. It Is said.
These petitions point to the fact that all
danger from eastern Iowa Is passed.
On th other hand, stock growers In
tha western part of the state have ctrT
culated and aigned petitlona asking that
the quarantine order continue Indefi
nitely until all danger of the spread of
hoof and mouth disease haa passed. It
was the western stockmen together with
the bankers who insisted upon the pres
ent drastio order a month ago.
It is expected that Monday's meeting
at Lincoln will develop along the same
linea a the meeting held here a month
ago. It Is certain that the local market
and local stockmen have suffered from
the order. They Insist that western Iowa
haa been clean for a long time past and
that the Sioux City market la getting
the Iowa stuff which ordinarily would
come here. Loral packers have been
buying killer atuff from Iowa on the
Sioux City market and shlrptng It 'in
direct.
LInlasr 1 for Battle.
Both consolidatlonlsts and antls were
busy yesterday lining up for the battle
in ma nouee. ji is unaerstooa that a
return tolettep wrItln, on th, pirt of
certain local stockmen has been urged
by tha antis. One man living in Omaha
admitted that he had written a number
of letters sgalnst the bill Just to please
some local friends. Consolidatlonlsts say
they feel certain that the house will give
the bill a square deal. The vote" Joker
Is still being urged. One well known
legislative representative of a large cor
poration was plainly told to keep his
hands off a few daya fgo by members
or tne legislature. It is said.
I Andrew Llnstram Dead
Andrew Lindstrum, familiarly known as
"Andy," died yesterday at the home of
his Son-in-law, c. L. Henderson, Twenty
rirth and Q streets, from old age. For
twenty yeara Andrew Lindstrum worked
in the Henderson floral gardens and de
livered flowers all over Omaha and South
Omaha. He had a natural love for the
plants which' he helped raise and it was
his greatest pleasure to deliver tha flowers
at the home of tha purchaser. It was in
this way that he became so well known
and liked. Whether It was a funeral or a
wedding, Andrew brought his flowers and
with them always a word of kindness and
gentleness befitting the occasion.
Borne months ago he was taken 111 and
gradually his strength left him until
death intervened yesterday morning. The
funeral will be held Sunday afternoon at
2 o'clock from the funeral parlors of O.
H. Brewer. Interment will be roado In
Graceland Park cemetery.
Ask for Salary! Cat.
Rev. Dr. Robert Lt Wheeler, pastor of
the First Presbyterian church, has asked
that his salary be cut down In order to
lighten tha burdens of bis congregation
during the comiDg year". Dr. Wheeler th
calling upon his1 congregation to support
the church work expressed himself as
willing to bear the burdens along with
the rest. Being called out of the city
and unable to attend the financial meet
ing of his church members, he gave pub
lic notice that he wanted his salary cut
down $lo0. In view of the? usual salaries
paid ministers. Dr. Wheeler's request
stands out as exceptional to a degree,
church people say.

A terrible thing has happened to Mon
aleur Charles Msyard, dlreeteur du

Oh, my! monsieur's eangfrMrt was

It wns not an acclilent which happened
tn M. Charles Marard. It wns not slvk

It was that was happening to monsieur
(as they sav In the French Idiom).
Atlendet. Leesten itnd you Shall hear,
though It hurts the heart of monsieur to
tell It. even to think about It.
Kntered a Indv to monsieur's office In
the Vomenelln the other day. Monsieur
smiled and bowed, presented to madam a
chair, seated himself at his desk.
Madam wished to give a little dinner
so many covers, such a time, such a
place.
And now the menu.
ftarh a Mens.
Oh. It hurts monsieur's temperament to
think of It. It Imitans tha tender petals
of the flowers of his artistic skill ' to
contemplate It that which It was which
madam offered aa the menu of her affair.
But monsieur Is a brave man. II must
not flinch. He will restrain and contain
his feelings while again ho tells It
Here Is that which It was which was
what madam wished to have upon tha
menu of her affair grapefruit, lamb,
chicken, fruit salad these were to be four
out of six courses.
Aa he said the words In relating It,
monsieur threw up his hands and shoul

A cigar with the incomparable Havana

milder tobaccos, all perfectly rolled into a

The Interviewer wns perplexed. He did
not wish to appear Ignorant. Monsieur
offered no explanation. What was to be
done? Inquiry must be made. Monsieur
seemed to sink Into despair at the fatal
question.
"La, la. la, la. how can It he done?"

"Now. with lamb," monsieur hecame

that kind. But, chicken, nevalr, nevalr.

course of two years to ono of five years.
It also Inserted a provlao that meribera
o the chiropractic hoard must take ex
amination In all medical branches at the
hands of the secretaries of the State
Board of Health.
This latter amendment la especially ob
noxious to the chlroprartora, as they say
that It virtually emasculates their bill.
The secretaries of the Hoard of Health
are known to ho exceedingly hostile to
the chiropractic healers and, naturally
enough, the drugleea practitioners think
that this provision will, to all Intents
and purposes, put their profession di
