The United Doctors Specialists,li
censed by the state, for the treatment
of deformities and all nervous and
chronic diseases of men, women and
children, offer to all who call on this
trip, consultation, examination,, ad
vice free, making no charge whatever,
except the cost of medicine. All that
is asked in return for these valuable
services is that every person treated
will tell their suffering friends and
neighbors of the good results obtained
by their treatments—that they may
consult them with confidence on their
return trip which will be in two

This is said to be one of the most
able specialists’ organization of its
► kind in this section of the country, and

their time and attention being devoted
to such diseases as follows:
Disease of the stomach, bowels,
liver, blood, skin, nerves, heart, spleen,
kidneys or bladder, rheumatism, sci
atica,' bed wetting, leg ulcers, weak
lungs, catarrh, bronchitis asthma,
slow growth in children and those
afflicted with long standing, deep
seated chronic diseases, that have
baffled the skill of the family phy
sician.
According to their system no more
iperations for appendicitis, gall stones
tumors or goitre.
If you have kidney or bladder
troubles bring a two-ounce bottle of
your urine for chemical analysis.
Deafness often has been cured in
sixty days.
Remember this free offer is for this
trip only.
Married ladies must come with their
husbands and minors with their

Death of Mrs. W. J. O’Connor.
Died, at St. Joseph’s Hospital
Omaha, Monday morning at 8:30 a. m.,
Emma O’Connor, beloved wife of
William J. O’Connor of this city, aged
37 years.
The remains were shipped here
Tuesday evening and taken to their
residence on Everett street. The
funeral took place Thursday morning
at the Catholic church, a solemn re
quiam mass being celebrated by the
Rev. Father Gleason, assisted by the
Reverned Fathers Cassidy and
Flannagan, the latter coming from
Omaha to assist at the funeral service.
The splendid display of flowers bore
mute testimony to the affectionate
esteem in which the deceased was held
by the people of South Omaha and
O’Neill.
The deceased went to Omaha with
her husband one year ago, he being a
patient sufferer for the past three
years, and expected to stay only a few
months while her husband was taking
treatment. Shortly after going there
she became ill with an attack of pneu
monia, which quickly developed into
tuberculous which caused her death.
Mrs. O’Conner’s early life was spent
here she having lived northwest of
this city, until she moved with her
mother to South Omaha where she
met and married William J. O’Connor.
Mrs. O’Conner was first of all a true
Christian woman, devoted to her hus
band whose every care she was
solicitious for. Her friends burdens
were often hers, she was always ready
and willing to carry the load; through
out her entire life she carried the cross
uncomplainingly if by doing so she
helped others. They will miss her
wise council, her willing hands, her
cheerful disposition, when dark
days come to them, she was
like a silver lining; behind
the clouds always ready to burst
forth to dispel, if possible, the threat
ening clouds of dispair. Her trials
■she bore with Christian fortitude; no

A BUSINESS PROPOSITION.
A Brilliant Scheme For Increasing The
Prosperity Of The Town.
W. C. T. U.
My proposel briefly is this: That the
city enact an ordinance licensing me,
under legal sanction, and protecting
me from interference from anyone, to
burn five buildings of my own choos
ing within the year. I will warn any
occupants so thgy will have time to
escape. I will reduce the evils of my
system to a minium. I will also per
mit an ordinance making me liable at
the end of a lawsuit to pay all the
direct loss to the owners by reason of
the fire. I will agree not to burn more
than the number of buildings agreed
upon but will not be responsible for
the spread of the fire beyond the limits
of the building fired. For this license
I will pay $1500.00 into the city
school fund to decrease your taxes.
What do you think of the proposition ?
If put to a popular vote at the city
election, how would you vote? Will
you vote to give me the license ? Why
not? Your answer: “What an ab
surd proposition! Allow the de
struction of $15,000.00 worth of prop
erty to save $1,500.00 in taxes.”
“Yes,” I reply, “ But some buildings
will be burned anyway. Some one else
will burn them if I don’t. We had
better have them burned legally and
openly than have some one sneaking
around in the alley at midnight taking
an oil-soaked rag from his boot, or
leaving a can of oil to be tipped over
in a haymow by someone determined
to start a fire. I would permit an
ordinance to be passed allowing me
only the hours between 7 a. m. and 8
p. m. and only week days. This would
make it much more convenient for
the fire companies and much safer for
he people. It would also be to my in
terest to prevent any irregular fires
which might lead to accusations
against me.”
Again, Durning Runnings is my uusi
ness, or at least will be if you give me
the license. I would train to do it with .
neatness and dispatch and would learn
not to know how to do anything else, j
You have no right to rob me of an
occupation in my chosen field of en
deavor. “Ah!” you say, “You have no
right to engage in an occupation of ^
destruction.” (“Indeed, that is so,” I
reply, There’s the rub—I have no right j
tha’s why I want the license and am
willing to pay for it.”
Now, there are many advantages to
the town if you accept this proposal.
It will make business lively. These
five buildings will have to be rebuilt.
This will boom the lumber business. ,
Every lumber yard and hardware store
in town ought to be in favor of it.
Then it will make work. It will mean
thousands of dollars in wages, and
these thousands in wages will be spent
at the stores. Another thing: How the
fire insurance business would boom!
Every building in town would be in
sured for all it would carry. Oh, it
would make business lively.
Now, Mr. Voter, this argument may
seem plausable on the surface, but you
know that if this proposal was put to a
vote not a voter would vote for it.
Yet how very like it sounds to the
arguments in favor of the saloon.
Vote in a business to save $1500.00 in
taxes which will yield absolutely no
good thing in return, yet will cost,
paid over the bar, much more than
$15,000.00 It might as well be burned.
It might better be burned. The burn
ing would destroy a few homes. No:
Only houses, the homes would be left.
But drink destroys the family ties, the
real essence of home life. The burning
would make work plenty, at some ex
pense, to be sure, but the drink makes
the worker indifferent at his own ex
pense. Where would I get the
money to pay the license for burning?
Leave me alone for that. There are
very few who would not pay me
a liberal sum for immunity, and woe
to those few. Yet where does the
saloon keeper get money to pay his
license? Leave that to him. He gets
it. But he grants no immunity to
those who pay it. He not only takes
their money, but destroys the best of
their efficiency, their safety, their
peace, their usefulness, their integrity.
He takes their money only to accom
lish their destruction. How will YOU

and are experts in the treatment of
chronic diseases of the blood, liver,
