Although Greatly Handicapped He Has Accumulated $6,000. Omaha , July 22. Fred H. Wnlkor of Omaha has demonstrated that it is not lecossnry for a young man to have the UBI of his logs in order to exist and teop the wolf away from the door. This young man is 24 years of ago and although ho has boon a cripple for six r'ears ! he has gathered about him prop erty to the vnluo of $5,000 nnd has lone this without the assistance of any person other than his customers , and In dealing with them he feels that : ie has given them dollar for dollar. Six years ago Walker was In the Omaha high school , where ho wns a jright boy nnd a crnck footbnll plnyer. In one of the games ho met with an _ accident that deprived him of the use of his logs , nt least when ho wns able to bo about ho was forced to uao crutches and his physicians toll him thnt ho will never be nble to walk without them. The parents of Walker were poor , but this did not discourage him. The squab business had started and in it Walker saw some money. He went to n friend ' and leased a block of vacant and In the outskirts of the city. From another man , a friend , he bought lum- her for his pens , and , being something of a mechanic , did his own building.Ol Then ho went In debt for fifty pairs of squabs. Ho was ready for business.I The birds Increased at a wonderful rate and nt the end of the first year he liad sold fifty dozen young birds at $3 per dozen and had 100 pairs in his pens. The second year he sold $500 worth of birds , paid off all his debts and increased his breeding stock by 150 pairs. From that time on his busi ness flourished. Up to July 1 of this year his sales for the six months had aggregated $1,000 nnd ho says he will turn off fully $500 worth of birds be fore winter. Young Walker has bought him a team and does his own marketing. He sells only to hotels and restaurants and consequently receives the highest prices. Humphrey Commercial Club. Humphrey Democrat : A long felt want is at last about to be filled in Humphrey , and that is a commercial club. The start wns made Monday evening when a few business men met at the home of Dr. Condon and set on foot a movement which will no doubt result in a good live club being formed. Messrs. Diers , Wentz and N. J. Steffes wore chosen as a committee to circulate a paper to secure signa tures and promise to attend n meetIng - Ing next Mondny evening in the city Imll to complete an orgnnlzntlon. Humphrey had n commercial club a number of years ago. It stnrted out to secure a flouring mill for the town. It succeeded , but It seemed thnt nfter this was accomplished It considered Its mission ended , so it died a silent death. There has been need of a coms nierclnl club In Humphrey almost continuously - tinuously since , and had we had one we believe the town would be considcal erably better off today. Attend the is meeting Monday night , and there reme celve such inspiration ns will make on you a booster , not a knocker , for the ex good of the town and community as long as you claim Humphrey as your home. A town good enough to live in certainly good enough to boost for nnd this is what a good commercial . club will make you do. . JEWELS AND JACK KNIVES. fui Pure Food Law Cannot Prevent Gifts and Premiums to the Purchaser. Lincoln , Neb. , July 24. It Is no of fense against the Inw for the manu facturer of a food product to include the package containing his stuff a prize , gift or premium , and that sec tion of the pure food law which de clares this to be misbranding Is uncon stitutional. So holds District Judge Stewart in a test case brought by the manufacturers _ of Ice cream powder and mince meat , who gave slips that could be redeemed in cash or in maga zine or book subscription. The attorney general holds thnt this at n device that is Intended to deceive the purchaser of a food product Into is believing that he is getting something as for nothing and that the cost of the prize being Included In the price charged , It means deterioration In the food product sold. The court says that there being no element of chnnco In It , the public morals are not lowered , and that , therefore , the police power of the stnto cannot bo invoked. The manu facturers complained that the law was is secured by manufacturers who didn't want to give premiums and tried to make It impossible for those who did do so.

Andrew Cnrncgle will lie asked to give $11,000 for the Norfolk public li brary building , instead of $10,000 ns nlrendy provided. Owing to the nd- vance in cost of labor and materials during the past six months , the library building planned six months ago to cos $10,000 , will now cost a little mo than $11,000. The building as planned Is ns small and inexpensive ns Norfolk should have , in the opinion of the library bonrd , nnd nn effort will Ub mnde to secure additional funds from the steel king in order to build the structure just as outlined. There Is reason to believe that the additional $1,000 may be secured. The steel magnate makes It n rule to give for a library building ten times as much : money ns the city will yenrly ap- proprlnto for mnintenance. And ow ing to the increase in Norfolk's as sessed valuation , due to increase in property and to growth In the city , the levy mnde for library malntennnce , originally planned to brln $1,000 per year ; , will now raise about $1,100. Ten times this amount would make $11,000 and Mr. Carnegie makes it a rule to give ten times the yearly maintenance appropriation , for the building's con struction. So J Mr. Carnegie will be written to Immediately , and the facts In the case called to his nttentlon. Until n reply received , and the needed additional money provided , work will not start the building. But matters will be expedited ] as much as possible so that lust as quickly as is possible the new ; building will begin to be built. Bids Are Opened. The library board met yesterday af ternoon to receive bids on the pro C. posed building. As a result the follow ing figures are available : For ] the completed building , without furniture or architect's fee , the low bid was $11,840. For the same building without fin ished basement ( on which orlglnnl es- at Llmnte wns based ) low bid was $11,005. Four bids were received , two from locnl contractors and two from out a side. John Hermnnn and Pruden & Beckenhauer were the Norfolk bid ders ; F. H. Woerth of Scrlbner and Anton Rnstnd of Vermllllon , S. D. , were the other two. There wns $700 difference betweeu the high nnd low all bid. by Deeds for Site Now Signed. The last deed for the library site , Norfolk avenue and Eighth street , was signed Saturday , so that now all In readiness for the building Itself soon as the additional fund Is ar < ranged. The site is 127 feet by 104 foot , at the southwest corner of Nor folk avenue and Eighth. The Increased cost of building , over figures of six months ago , was shown by the 20 per cent Increase on brick and the 33 per cent Increase on labor. One contractor stated that he now paying 25 cents nn hour for common labor , as against 17 cents last January , and men are hard to get at of that price. $ The building as planned will make beautiful public institution for Nor folk < and the library board feels that any action In reducing the size or the * quality of the building , from the orlg Inally : planned structure , would not bo $ Justified , In view of the fact that Nor 19 folk is entitled to a library that Is in worth while. The board feels that 'to ' erect an Inferior building would be cause for lasting regret and for this reason to get the building that 1ms rv o been planned the new effort with Mr , 7 Carnegie will bo made. The building could have been built before , but owing to delayn in thn tiff closing of arrangements with Mr. Car negie , over which the board had no control , It was Impossible to proceed the until now.
