a situation that ealli for head work

"Send liandholt.."

bit; hook.
liai Long Record.
Down in Cuba, during the Span-Mi-.mcricau
war, rUndholtz had in
l and some of the won. t jobs of all
that haphazard campaign. Then for
13 long years in the Philippines,
when the situation in Luzon looked
as though bloodshed and revolution
would never end, then on the boro'cr
when we were on the verge of war
vith Mexico; then in the World wai
where, as noted before, he served
with the 27th. And aM this time
his work was of the difficult, heart
breaking kind; not the spectacular
sort.
Me might tell you but he won't
that he was for s'x months our
military representative in Hungary
during which time the. Roumanians
took Budapest. Ho would never tell
vou but it's a fact that once he
drove two companies of Kdumauian
soldiers out of the palace with the
belp of his riding whip and a bright
American telephone operator.
Also, they tell how, while a mem
ber of the allied mission in Uudapcsl,
the French authorities, at the last
moment, informed him "then: was no
room for him on the train," which
was to carry the party to Vienna.
But Bandholtz hired' a special train
?nd arrived in Vienna ahe.-:d of the
French train. '
Busy Since 1886. .
tiandholtz got out of West Point
in 1886 and has been busy ever since,
lie was; in half the battles in Cuba
in 1898 and did reconstruction work
there for two. years after the war.
Then to the Pliilippines, to the island
of Marindugas, vhcre the fighting
was at its veryworse. On one oc
casion he, witb.a lieutenant.' went.
alone into the camp of the insurgent
leader, Col. Maximo Abad, arranged
for his surrender and returned with
"Abad and his whole command.. He
was immensely popular with the na
tives; indeed, the people of Tavabas
elected hint their governor in 1902,
the only regular army officer, evef
to receive such a tribute.
After this the Philippine career is
one long record of quelling insurrec
tion, putting down the hordes of sav
r.ge bandits and forcing the surrender
of dozens of notorious outlaws who
were terrorizing the island under the
guise of "patriotism." And all this
time he was gradually ' being pro
moted and by his distinguished
bravery, was winning honors.
Wins Big Honor
j Secretaary of War Taft cabled con
gratulations cn his putting down the
outlaws; when he recovered th:
stolen plans of all the defenses of
Manila bay in 1913. Gov. General
Forbes besged that he be made a
brigadier general. "" But it was not
until January 3, 1918, that he wpn the
long deserved honor.
It is this lifc-loug training in han
dling men . in guerilla warfare that
weighed with the War d;partnwnt
when casting about for some one to
handle the Mingo situation. No one
must forget that, quite unlike the sit
uation in the Philippines, the miners
arc American citizens and entitled to
treatment as Such. On the other
hand, no,N matter what their griev
ances, they must not be permitted to
establish a state of civil war.
Questions Asked 23 Years
Ago Show World Progress
Cleveland. Sept. 4. A striking in
dication of the world's progress w as
shown here 'recently when the 12Sth
anniversary of the city's founding
was celebrated. At that time a let
ter written in 1896 on the occasion
cf the centennial celebration was
. read. It contained the . following
questions, to be answered now:
"Have women the right to vote?"
"Has prohibition been achieved?"
"Has the north pole been dis
covered?" "-Have people learned to fly? -"Is
the horseless carriage a
ceality?" .
All the questions, moot then, arc
jnswered in the affirmative.

Wilson's early life in Omaha are re
called by Charles S. Elgutter. Oma
ha attorney, in connection with the
noted artist's latest marriage to a
Frenchman in Paris, last week.
He characterizes the creator of
the kewpie doll as a real "wild
Irish roc" in her youthful beauty iu
the early Ws.
Eager Student
"Rose was an eager student in the
art school founded by Dr. John
Flood under the patronage of the
late G. W. Lininger. It was Flood
to whom Omaha was. indebted for
bringing J. Laurie Wallace to Oma
ha as director of the art school," said
Elgutter, "and it was Wallace who
gave her early training.
Flood commissioned F.lguttcr,
who had also done editorial work on
The Bee, to get out an art magazine
featuring the world exposition at
Chicago.
Rose O'Neill heard about the
project and called at Elgutter's office
where he was reading law, to submit

Word for Short Dresses
Boston .Sept. 4. Some clergy
men are endorsing the short skirts
and scanty costumes -of the modern
woman and do not agree with many
of the profession who claim that
modern dresses are immodest.
Among the champions of the mod
ern dress is the Rev. C. C. Morrison,
editor- of the Christian Century, of
Chicago, who spent part of his vaca
tion in New England.
"The garments of women are far
more sensible and healthful than
ever before," he said. , "They leave
the body a freedom which only sen-sibily-habited
women ,,of the Orient
can approach.

"I looked them over, but turned
them down in favor of one by a
Chicago artist," said Elgutter. "Now
I regret it, for if I had accepted her
work it would have constituted
Rose's first artistic recognition."
Husband Former Omahan.
It is an interesting fact that Rose
O'Neill's first husband, Harry Leon
Wilson, the playwright and novelist,
is also a former Omahan, but he
and Rose did not meet in Omaha,
according to Elgutter, at whos?
home Wilson livea while in the city.
"Wilson was employed at the
Union Pacific headquarters and dab
bled in the writing game. One day
he surprised me with the announce
ment he was going to New York.
"'What for; you have a good job
here,' I said to him.
Offered Job on Puck.
" 'Yes. but Puck has offered me a
job on their staff,' he replied."
Later Wilson became managing
editor of Puck and met Rose when
she went to New York and submit
ted her drawings.
. Rose O'Neill never came back to
Omaha after she left this city.
"Her family was of humble ori
gin and she had nothing to cherish
but sordid memories of her early
life in this city," he said.

Progress of the Crops.
Weekly Crop Bulletin of the Agrcinllural
Bureau of the Omaha Chamber of
Commerce.
It is not many years since the word
"frightfulness" was a current and ex
pressive thing; 'It was not commonly ap
plied to weather. But It is not improper
to apply it now to the weather period of
ths past two weeks in the transmissouri
country. The average temperature has
been about' S dogroei above normal

and while there have been some heavy
rains most" of the country west of th
river got none at all. Where the coun
try waa dry this intense heat has ripened
the corn and, doubtless, material damage
has been done. But the extent of dam
'age is probably over estimated. It will
be recalled that generally the corn crop
was two to three weeks esrly at the be
ginning of August. The first two weeks
of the month, owing to cool nights, re
tarded development slightly. But the
crop sr.wuld have been mature at this
date with average temperature and mois
ture conditions. It may be assumed,
therefore, that except in late or poorly
cultivated fields and in the restricted dis
tricts where the corn was suffering from
prolonged drouth the damage from ex
cessive heat Is not very great. , Missouri

mates for September 1st will be made on
a mature crop And while the August
estimate of 3.1:3,050.000 bushels will be
scaled down materially, and the crop will
not at all equal last year's bumper crop
although It was given a 4,000,000 larger
acreage, tho total yield will be very close
to the S.000.000.000 bushel mark and wll!
be ample for both home consumption and

proximately 16.000,000 bushels per month'.

lies Moines, Sept. 4. (Special
Telegram.) In answer to the fore
closure complaint of the boiidlwld
ers of the Des Moines city rail
way, the city filed a general denial
today which was in re alii y n ul
timatum to the company to either
do buiiics or get out. In Ihe
event that the present owner do not
continue srrvhe under' the exiMing
fram-hUc. or fail to sell out imme
diately, the answer say the city
will consider the H reel car tracks,
poles and wire ebMructions and
proceed to tear them out.
At the ame time the answer was
filed, the city also expressed a wil
lingness to intercede for the car
men and urged acceptance of their
proposition to stand the deficit if the
company would continue operation
during new fwnchise negotiation.
The facts set forth by the city'
lawver are these:
The franchise ordinance tind-r
which the present owners of the
street car company have been oper
ating is still in force and is the only
source of authority for the company
to occupy and operate the car sys
tem on the streets of Des Moines.
Suspension of service is a direct
violation of the terms of this fran
chise. Occupation of the streets
without service constitutes an ob
struction and if continued the city
will deem it necessary to tear up
the tracks, poles and wires of the
company and clear the streets.
In the event that a sale of - the
street railway system is ordered, the
city asks that the sale be arcom
plished as soon as possible and that
the property so sold be treated as a
unit and subject to the ordinances
preserving to the city the franchise
