Police Think Thomas
Thompson Killed Self
A post-mortem examination of the
body of Thomas Thompson, recently
found dead in his home under mys
terious circumstances, has lead po
lice of the South Side to believe the
case a suicide.
The examination disclosed that only
the one bullet was fired into Thomp
son's head, the ball entering the head,
striking the skull, splitting and emerg
ing in two different places. One half
of the bullet came out near the ear,
. the other hole bejnjg, in the back of
the head.
Thompson's right hand near the
wrist showed signs of burns. De
tectives working on the case are
searching the Thompson home in an
effort to find new evidence.
A coroner's inquest will be held

Schneider's Big Cattish
Will Feed Elks on Friday
Dick Schneider caught a big blue
channel catfish last July weighing
about SO pounds and has carefully
kept it alive and in good condition
since. In the meantime it has in
crease! in weight to about 65 pounds.
Mr. Schneidei evolved several plans
to dispose of the fish. He considered
the matter of building a tank in the
front window of his cigar store and
putting it on exhibition and he also
tnought it might be a good idea to
freere the fish in a block of ice and
exhibit it that way. He finally de
ided, however, to give it to the Elks
for their regular lunch after their
weekly lodge meeting and it will be
baked and served Friday evening.

JUDGE WADE TALKS
' JfoOUT WORLD WAR
Tells University Club That Rival
Creeds Are Now Unitedly
Facing the Common Task
and Danger.
Only one subject should be before
the American people at this time, and
that is the world war, declared Fed
eral Judge Martin J. Wade, address
ing the University club at noon
Thursday.
"It makes no difference to me what
subject may have been assigned to
me today, I would have talked about
the war anyway," declared the judge.
Judge Wade urged the university
men to realize what a terrible task
was before the democracies of the
world in bowing the head of the
kaiser.
"There are three things we must
have, he said. They are men,
money and spirit. If we are without
spirit in the humblest home on the
farm, ana in the mahogany office of
the largest corporation ,e cannot get
men and money.
"We have been born to human li1-
erty here in this country, and I am
afraid we don't fully appreciate what
wonderful thing it is. Statesmen
have predicted that our great nation
will thrive and prosper during peace
times, but when the storm broke the
hundreds of nationalities which make
up our nation would gradually fall
back to their old countries. ,
"I believe that' if peace is declared
in six months, despite the awful cost
in men and money it will have been
worth while. It is breakine down
the walls of creed, fraternity and re
ligion and we will emerge a stronger
nation, back to back and shoulder to
shoulder.
"I remember when my father first
came to Iowa. On those beautiful
Sunday afternoons we used to scatter
over the wide prairies and gather
flowers, but wherr the lightning tore
the fields and the thunder rocked the
earth we gathered in a huddled bunch
to give each other encouragement
and strength.
"So it is with our nation today.
During our peaceful, prosperous days
we drifted apart, forming our socie
ties, organizations and religious sects,
but now I see all that disappearing
and our great nation is coming to
gether to lend each other the needed
strength-we must have to win this
war.
"Not long ago in Des Moines, la.,
I was invited to address a meeting
called by the Masons, Rotarf club and
Knights of Columbus of that city and
althought I found it impossible to at
tend, it warmed my heart to see how
our great people are forgetting creed,
forgetting religion, forgetting every
thing and gathering into a little hud
dled bunch to fight the confmon
enemy of freedom the German,
kaiser."
Socialist Held
For Alleged Pro-
German Remarks
E. D. Miller, 3325 Farker street, has
been arrested by police and is being
held for" Marshal Eberstein of the
federal service for alleged pro-German
remarks. Miller is alleged to
have declared "Liberty bonds are not
worth the paper they are written on,"
and that "he would rather live under
the kaiser than President Wilson."
Miller is a prominent socialist and
has run for several minors offices. He
was employed by Kirschbraun & Son,
) commission men.
County Contests Feature
Of "Y" War Fund Campaign
Contests between cities, between
counties and between districts prob
ably will be a feature of Nebraska's
campaign in the $35,000,000 drive for
Young Men's Christian association
war work. Nebraska's quota is $250,
000. Plans for a state-wide series of con
tests, in which one city or a county or
a district will challenge another, are
being laid and will be announced in
a few. days. The cqntest will be to
see which subscribes most in propor
tion to its quota.
With- the report from Chadron yes
terday that the nineteenth district had
organized, it was announced from

county and district in the state is
ready for the drive next week.

Good Money Will
Not Buy Good
Dentistry If You
, Get Into the
WRONG OFFICE
Think -a little to save a lot. If people would spend more
time INVESTIGATING they would spend less money
for Dentistry.
I do not advocate by any means wasting time and risking
one's teeth with "Cheap-John" Dentists but I claim
there are as many Dentists charging TOO MUCH as there
are doing TOO LITTLE for their patients.
Experience does not consist of doing a thing WRONG for
a long time and does not warrant such a Dentist over
charging patients, because of his imaginary reputation.
il have never found it necessary tr overcharge my pa
tients; neither do I slight their work in any manner to
bring my services within the reach of the average family.
That is one reason why my practice has outstrinped some
of the old timers and bears out my contention that GOOD
Dentistry depends on the ability, skill and honesty of the
Dentist not on the price he charges.
All it will cost you to consult the Dental Specialists on my
staff is your time.

FREMONT COUNCIL
HALEDTO COURT
Charged With Maintaining
Nuisance Dangerous to Pub
lic Health By Dumping Sew
age Into Rawhide Creek.
Attorney General Willis K. Reed
is in Omaha for the purpose of lay
ing down the law to Mayor Wyley
and the city council of Fremont, who
were summoned by Sheriff lichacl
Clark late Wednesday night to appear
j betorc the district court in Douglas
i county today to answer to the charge
ot maintaining a sewerage nuisance.
The city of Fremont dumps its
sewerage into Rawhide creek, which
is on the boundary line between
Douglas and Dodge counties and
which flows into Douglas county. The
stream is not large enough to purify
the volume of sewerage discharged
into it from Fremont and constitutes
a continual menace to inhabitants of
this county living in the neighbor
hood. Especially Offensive in Winter.
In the winter time especially the
noxious odors are especially offensive
and dangerous and are credited with
the spreading of epidemics and dis
ease along its course.
"We have been after the Fremont
officials to remedy this condition for
over a year, but to no effect." said At
torney General Reed. "This time
they wanted to put it off again, but I
told them nothing doing. We will
meet for a conference this afternoon."
"Appeals have been made to state
authorities and to the board of health
to have the , dangerous nuisance
abated," said County Attorney Mag
uey, who filed the information for
Douglas county. "Fremont took no
steps to remedy the condition. At
torney General Keed, who is also a
member of the state board of health,
finally suggested this injunction suit
to compel action on the part of Fre
mont officials."
Fremont officials agreed to appear
voluntarily and will arrive in Omaha
about noon today. A committee has
been investigating the sewerage sys
tem at Mason City and citizens have
been planning a mass meeting on the
question when the committee returns
and reports. The city officials have
not to date formulated any plap for
remedying the nuisance.
