EDGAR JOHNSON VERY
LOW WITH APPENDICITIS
From Thursday's Dally.
A message was received here last
evening announcing the fact that Ed
gar Johnson, son of the late J. F
Johnson, was very low at the hos
pital in Lincoln. Mr. Johnson has
been witli his mother in California
for several months as his health has
been very poorly as the result of a
serious heart affliction and on his
return to the home at Lincoln he
developed a severe case of appendi
citis. He was taken to St. Eliza
beth's hospital Monday morning and
an operation performed when it was
found that the appendix had burst
and the condition of the young man
was very serious. Harry McCoy of
this city, an uncle of the young man,
was present at the operation and
returning home yesterday was called
hack this morning by the announce
ment that Edgar was much worse.
THE TRAGEDY OF A DAY IN MAY
Welcome early days in May. Rreez
es through the branches play. Coun
try roads are hard and dry, motors
swiftly pass me by. O'er the rails
to reach the crossing, see that train
come roaring tossing. Let us see
how autoists act are they using
sense and tact?
Things are looking very good
drivers stopping as they should.
Guess these fellows read the papers
know what comes of cutting capers,
in this place where people ought to,
practise safety, as they're taught to.
Careful driving saves your hide and
your motor car beside.
Who is this, thoa comes this way,
speeding in his motor grey? Swift
his pace he runs in high soon that
train will .thunder by. Judging
from his manner brisk, he's inclined
to take a risk. lie is like some oth
ers are fond of deeds spectacular.
Watch him as he makes today, his
blood curdling grandstand play.
See him. as he dashing comes
listen how his motor hums. Not one
signs of hesitation just a look of
proud elation. That bold stunt he's
done before, he intends to try once
more.
Drivers look the other way, if
there's time let some one pray.
Naught availed your sigh or groan
death has claimed him for his own.
Gone he is left all his pelf God
helps him who helps himself. Yes,
one more has paid the price What a
needless sacrifice!
Where the road the highway cros
ses, death gloats while we count the
losses. In the year passed, 1920. he
had chance to gloat a plenty. Killed
an even hundred score; injured some
three thousand more.
FRANK THOMAS HERE
Frank H. Thomas of Chicago of the
"Safety First" department of the Bur
lington, arrived in the city today frir
a few hours stay and to dispence the
doctrine of better be safe than sorry,
of which movement he is one of the
pioneers. Mr. Thomas has been n
this line of work for a great many
yc-trs and was one o the first to trav
el over the Hurlington system adver
tising and preaching the doctrine of
"Safety First" and the result of the
work has been to cut down to a very
low figure the injuries and accidents
on the railroad. At present Mr.
Thomas is urging safety first methods
in driving over railroad crossings,
where the greater part of the acci
dents nowdays occurs. Personally a
clever and genial gentleman. Mr.
Thomas has been very successful in
his work and his many friends here
were more than pleased to meet him
and enjoy the opportunity of a visit.
RECEIVES WORD FROM GREECE
George Con is, proprietor of the
Palace shining parlor, has just re
reived a letter from his father who
resides at Harradeca, Greece, and in
which the father urges George to re
turn home for a time at least as the
father and other members of the
family are very desirous of seeing the
son and brother again. It has been
eight years since Mr. Conis left his
native land to find a home in the new
world and many changes have come
not only into the life of his country,
but to himself as well. While feel
ing a desire to mingle with the loved
ones again Mr. Conis now has such
extensive business interests that he
finds it hard to get away if he de
sires to return to the old home for a
visit.
GYPSIES IN TOWN
From Friday's Dally.
Theis morning for the first time
in many months a pair of wandering
gypsies visited this city seeking to
raise a few stray dimes and quarters
and visited the stores of the city to
play their vocation of fortune telling.
One of the descendents of ihe wan
dering tribes of Kurope, attracted by
the dashing form of ye reporter ap
proached and attempted to tell the
future of the pencil pusher but was
gently but firmly repulj-'d as the
present i.s bad enough wthout at
tempting to peer into the future.
RAIL BUILDER'S WIDOW
HELD ON ARSON CHARGE
Spokane. Wash., May 5. Mrs. An
na I.. Corhin, widow of the late D.
C. Corbin, northwestern railroad
builder, was held in the city Jail to
day following her admission, accord
ing to Prosecuting Attorney W. C.
Meyer, that she set fire to her pala
tial home here last Friday to col
lect the insurance. The house was
damaged about $10,000, it was esti
mated. SLOWLY IMPROVING
Mrs. Henry Dooley is reported as
being 6omewhat better at the hos
pital in Omaha,x but her progress li
very slow and her condition still re
mains quite weak, but her family and
friends are hopeful that she may
soon show decided improvement.
FIVE SEEK TO FILL
SHOES OF DAHLMAN
Applications Pour in for Vacant Mar
shalship An Early Selec
tion Predicted.
Washington. May 5. The election
of James C. Dahlman as mayor of
Omaha will put the choice of a Uniled
States marshal up to the Nebraska
delegation at an early date, as it is
understood Mr. Dahlman has resign
ed his commission as marshal which
would not otherwise have expired for
some time. Past experience makes
the members inclined to settle the ap
pointment as soon as possible before
any protracted contest has an op
portunity to embitter the candidates.
Notwithstanding the fact that Mr.
Dahlman's formal resignation has not.
yet been received, five candidates
have already filed and more are ex
pected now that the result of the elec
tion is known. The list includes
Thomas A. Barton of Kearney; Geo.
T. Lowman of Columbus; J. O. Hud
dleston. A. J. Donahue and J. B. Nick
erson, the latter three of Omaha. Mr.
Donahue is president of the central
labor union of that city and Mr. Nick
erson is present chief deputy marshal,
having served in that capacity for the
past sixteen years.
Friends of S. M. Mellick of Lincoln
have written on his behalf.
It is taken for granted that in view
of the fact that there are not enough
major offices to go around, that those
congressional districts which have not
yet had an opportunity will be fav
ored for the marshalship. The first
district got the collectorship, the sec
ond the district attorneyship and the
Fifth the prohibition director. The
marshalship. which pays $4,000 a
year, is the last important office.
The commission of Charles W. Mc
Cune, collector of customs at Omaha,
a position which pays $3,500. does
not expire until June 30, 1924.
BRYAN'S FRIENDS
MAY USE RECALL
Disgruntled Over the Fact that He
Probably Will Not be Mayor
Threaten Retaliation.
Lioncoln. May 4. Friends of C.
W. Bryan are today threatening the
recall as a retaliation for the refusal
of the members of the newly-elected
city council to elect him mayor of
Lincoln, which refusal now seems
likely. Bryan, who was a candidate
for mayor and nothing else, was
fourth on the list of five commis
sioners elected.
Frank C. Zeuhring, the other can
didate, was fifth on the list. The
three old commissioners who were
re-elected have declared that the
threat of the recall would not influ
ence their vote on the mayoralty.

purpose of erecting a competing mu
