McMullen Struggle
for Education Told
by Old Classmate
Crowds Greet Candidate’s
Party on Speaking Tour
Through First Nebraska
District.
By P. C. POWELL.
Special niapatch to The Omaha Bee.
Falla City, Neb., Oct. 21.—Audi
ences who gathered at street corners
In Richardson county today to listen
to Adam McMullen, candidate for
governor, learned something of his
early struggles for an education. The
story was told by Arthur J. Weaver
of Falls City, who, with dozens of
other citizens, traveled with Mr.
McMullen today.
"I roomed with Mr. McMullen at
the state university." Mr. Weaver
said In Introducing the Candidate.
"He had to work his way through
school and o'rganlzed a hoarding club
for fellow students. I was one of
his star boarders. That was 30 yeare
ago.
"He furnished three meals a day to
the students for $2 a week. Every
boarder he had was a close friend
and for a boarding house keeper to
hold friends Is almost next to Im
possible as you all know. The rea
son he kept friends there In Lin
coln 30 years ago was because he
gave us value received for our $2
a week. And when he becomes gov
ernor I know he will give the tax
payers value received.”
Friends Form Escort.
From three to eight carloads of
friends traveled with Mr. McMullen
throughout the day. He spoke at
Julian, Auburn, Howe, Verdon, Stella,
Shubert, Rulo and Falls City.
Frank J. Mondell of Wyoming,
former republican floor leader In the
lower house of congress, who spoke
at Falls City last night. Joined Mr.
McMullen and traveled with him dur
ing the morning. The former
Wyoming congressman will speak at
Tecumseh tonight. At Julian, Frank
Cline, S. M. Bixby and J. W. Arm
strong of Auburn, Col. Tom Majors,
Wilson E. Majors, David Jack, Frank
Majors and wife, and W. R. Pate of
Peru met Mr. McMullen.
J. D. Graham, precinct committee
man, Introduced by H. R. Howe,
while E. J. Tucker Introduced the
speaker at the town of Ho'we.
Upon arrival at Stella, In Richard
son county, he was met by the fol
lowing delegation of Richardson
county citizens, who accompanied
him the remainder of the day: A. J.

LITCHFIELD PAPER
GETS NEW EDITOR
Special Dispatch to The Omaha Her.
Hartlngton, Neb.. Oct. 21.—C. J.
Phepardson, who was employed In the
work of editing the Hartlngton Her
ald for several years, recently leased
the Litchfield Monitor of Litchfield.
Neb., and has moved there with his
family to take charge of the news
paper.
John Nicholas Brown Doesn't
Even Cough on Survey
of Property Here.
John Nicholas Brown Is the enly
23-year-old man In the world who has
380,000,000, six feet three inches of
figure and a normal waist line who
hasn’t tried to outdo the prince of
Wales.
At least one of the social editors
who dashed about Omaha in a taxicab
this morning and finally obtained a
fleeting glimpse of the wealthy young
man declares this Is the c^se, and she
should know.
John Nicholas Brown Is from
Providence, R. I. He came to Omaha
to dispose of a few million dollars
worth of property, if rumor be re
liable. And, inasmuch as rumor Is
the only obtainable source of informa
tion, let it pass for the truth.
For Mr. Brown had nothing to say.
He had less than nothing to say, In
deed, and said it with a delicate and
eloquent twist of eyebrows which
could have been nothing but a frown
of annoyance.
Makes Surreptitious Survey.
Chaperoned by Frank H. Myers, Mr.
Brown of Providence inspected his
mlliion-dollar warehouse at Tenth and
Jones streets. For no apparent rea
son he made his inspection a sur
reptitious one. It lasted for fully
half an hour, after which he stepped
into a waiting automobile, still main
taining his heavy silence.
The Terminal Warehouse building,
which opens onto the Tenth street
viaduct, was the object of Mr. Brown's
morning inspection.
“Is there anything you would care
to comment on?’’ the youthful mil
lionaire was asked as he left the
building.
The questioner received only a
stern look and more silence, but Mr.
Myers came to the rescue.
“This Is purely a business matter,"
he announced with a wave of finality.
"You should not be so persistent."
But to continue with the impres
sions of the social editor:
“AwfiHly Quaint Clothes.”
“Far,” she asserts, “from trying to
beat the prince sartorally, Mr. Brown
seems to dote on quaintness of ap
parel. Out of respect for the fail day
he wore a topcoat of bright blue chin
chilla belted soberly in the back. His
suit was an aggressive chocolate and
his hat a gray felt with a quaintly
rolled up brim which some heartless
haberdasher had passed off on him.
“His clothes were the only positive
thing about him. Silenter than Silent
Cal. he made no response to journal
istic overtures, and his mild biue eyee
stared straight ahead, without a quiv
er of the eyelashes in response.1 ‘
Thus did the social editor see the
reputed richest young man In the
world.
TRIO OF BANDITS
STILL AT LARGE
(Continued From Pa** Our.)
one of the men. the heaviest, at the
courthouse In Sidney. After a short
conversation the suspect left Reden
gaugh and walked across the street.
Later In the afternoon the man
hired a taxi from Harry Strumm
and went to Nebraska City.
William Toy told the sheriff that
he had met the three men and had
given them a ride for a short dis
t.nnce, then, when he turned off the
main road, they left him.
Blwin Jones, driver of a poultry
1 truck, picked them up after that but
when he reached Sidney the men.
' who had been riding on the rear of
! his truck were gone.
When George Graham, deputy sher
Iff, arrived at the scene of the wreck
he, like Irwin, thought that he men
were w hisky runners and passed over
the sack which lay beside the fence,
iabotguns in Weed*.
Two automatic! shotguns, loaded
w ith buckshot shells, were found In!
the weeds near the car. The front!
>eat of the car waa searched and
two coats, a fully loaded .31 caliber
rlstol. a quantity of .45-callber bullets,
some shotgun shells and some papers
w ere found.
Graham then Investigated the saek
more thoroughly and found that In
stead of whisky it contained about
* 1.100 in silver.
The men carried a hattered satchel
when they abandoned the automobile
and it Is believed that this satchel!
contains between $3,000 and $4,000 in
currency which was part of the Lit
tle Sioux bank loot.
Sheriff Abshire. Fremont county,
is in charge of the search. Deputy
Sheriff U H. Bird of Council Bluffs
and a state sheriff are aiding him.

Hamilton Lauded
bv Omaha Lawyer >
John Le« Webster Declaim?
Before Triangle Club
Luncheon.
The constitution might not have
been approved and the United State*
government never created without the
energy, scope of vision and active co
operation of Alexander Hamilton, de
clared John Lee Webster before the
Triangle club Tuesday noon at Hotel
Fontenelle.
"Alexander Hamilton, considering
his age, was a prodigy.” said Mr.
Webster. "In bis accomplishments
he was a genius.
"In the few years that followed
after the surrender of Lord Corn
wallis, the federal government, under
the articles of confederation, was
gradually fading Into a dim shadow.
It was under these distressing condi
tions that Hamilton wrote the ad
dress of the Annapolis convention in
1786, calling a constitutional conven
tion in Philadelphia in 1787. Alexan
der Hamilton is personally entitled to
the credit of having the constitution
adopted by the state of New York.
After six weeks, by bis debate, his
oratory, his magnetism, and hi*
patriotic spirit, he procured the adop
tion of the constitution. Without this
achievement by Alexander Hamilton
New York would have remained art
independent nation, a calamity to
America.
"As secretary of treasury under
Washington, Hamilton established a
financial system which laid the '
foundation for a solid American gov
ernment and which made the Unlte-1
States Independent of other govern
ments."
Mr. Webster then called attention
to distinguished writers and states
men who have lauded Hamilton. He
gave a description of the bronze
monument of Hamilton that stands
at the south front of the treasury
building in Washington.
