The board of directors of the Nebraska
Retail Lumber Dealers' association was In
session yesterday at the Dellono hotel, pre
liminary to tho meeting of the association
thin afternoon at Crclghton hall.
Tho directors present at this meeting were
K. L. Myers of Newport, president; J. C.
Cleland of Fremont, secretary; M. I.. 1'rles
of Arcadia, vice president; C, II. Iddlng
of North I'latto and A. l'owcll of St. Ed
ward. Tho other members of the commit
tee, O. 0. Snyder of O'Neill, h. V. Wlilffcn
of DoWItt, IJ. I). Sherwood of North Ilcnd
nnd U. T. Cornell of Holdrcge, had not ar
rived when the meeting was called to order.
Tho work of tho directors was confined to
passing upon complaints made by members
land routine matters, which will bo referred
to tho convention today.
Hrrnril-llrrnklnnr Year.
Tho past year has been a prosperous ono
for tho association. The secretary reports
that over 100 names havo been added to
the roll of membership slnco the convention
of 1S00, and that tho work has given general
en t Ufactlon to tlio members.
l'or tho last ten days tho secretary and
board of directors havo been trying to ar
range for an excursion to tako placo at the
close of tho convention, but after taking
the consonsus of the opinions of tho mem
bers It was decided to postpono tho excur
sion for one year.
Tho convention will bo cnllcd to order at
Crelghton hall at 2 o'clock this after
noon, when tho reports of tho olllccrs will
bo read and committees will bo appointed.
Thn real vork of tho convention will begin
Thursday morning. Tho principal subject
for discussion will bo ''poaching" tho prac
tice of somo wholesale merchants In selling
to contractors and others ns well as to re
tail dealers. This prnctlco was almost uni
versal beforo tho association was formed,
but tho secrctnry states that through the
efforts of tho organization It has been prac
tically discontinued In muny parts of the
state nnd Is falling Into dlsuso In all parts.
With tlir lletnllers.
Ilctall dcnlors Interviewed by The Bee
talk as follows:
M. L, Frits, Arcadia From out of dls
tuter riches havo comn to tho Nebraska
lumberman. Last year we expected to sell
moro lumber than wo had ever sold, nnd
loaded up our yards accordingly. For some
reason or other tho lumber did not move ns
wo had anticipated nnd this year wo found
ourselves stocked heavier than would havo
been advisable under ordinary circum
stances, Now comes n marked advanco In
tho prlco of lumber and every man who
considered .himself overstocked, and who, n
month or moro ago was figuratively kicking
himself, is now offering himself private, con
Kratulatlons over his business sagacity.
C. II. Iddtngs, North I'latte Business has
been remarkably good with us and "poach
ing" Is becoming almost unknown. Thoro
nro still occasional rnses, but we have a
record of them nnd think that the practice
will bo completely suppressed in a short
time. Everything Is movclng smoothly with
the lumber men In ray section of tho coun
try.
13. Ii. Myers, Newport Tho development
of Keyn I'aha county has brought prosper
ity to the lumbormen of thin section of the
state. Tho first settlors of tho county built
nod haut.es, but thoso who nro coming In
now nro erecting frame, houses nnd It will
be but n short time, until tho sod house In
Kcya I'nha county Is nB much of a novelty
ns It Is todny in Holt nnd nock counties.
Tho condition of tho farmer of tho north
west was nuver better nnd ho has taken ad
vantage of the low price of land, so that
now, when tho boom has apparently re
turned to Nebraska land, ho nnd not the
eastern money lender Is making the prollt.
In many rases I havo known tho farmers to
lenso land, cut tho hay and from tho pro
ceeds buy the. land upon which tho hay was
grown. With this condition prevailing It Is
easy to understand tho condition of tho gen
eral trado of tho community.
I'lii-mei-H In Ilettrr Condition.
Charles It. Israeli, Cook nuslncss Is re
markably good with us. During tho month of
January I sold moro lumber than during tho
nanio month In tho Inst flvo years. Trices
aro high, but tho farmers und builders
seem better able to pay the high prlco to
day than they woro to pay the low prlco
several years ago. Tho "poachers" give us
n llttlo trouble, but get little trade In my
section, for I fight them with their own
wenpons. If they undersell mo It Is be
causo tho buyer does not seo mo last.
A. Powell, St. Edward Business Is good,
but tho "poachers" nro worse this year than
they havo ever been before. I think that
Wn w.lll oettlo them, though, shortly.
J. K. McBlrnoy, Bnssett I sold out my
business tho other day and am down here on
what may be my farewell visit to tho con
vontlon. Business was good, but I found
n man who would rather buy In a lump and so
I am out. Prospects aro bright In my sec
tion and cvorybody Is busy.
, Met L. Saley of tho American Lumberman,
n man who travels over tho country in the
Interests of his publication, visiting all of
the lumber centors, will read a paper be
fore thn convention this afternoon. In
speaking of the prospects of tho lumber
trade ho said: "I believe that lumber
prices will be maintained this year as thoy
have never' been, beforo. The white pine
ram havo perfected their organization so
that a broak in prices Is practically lmpoa
Bible. The men In this trade aro now In n
position to bold' their utock until thoy can
get the prlco fixed, and as a result It will
not drop lower than It Is todny. With the
neaiers or yollow pino tho market has al
ways been a 'gamble.' There are so many
firms In tho business with small cupltul
that they are forced to sell their product
In order to pay expenses, and when they
aave to sen prices are generally deraora-
BACK GIVES OUT
Plenty Of Omaha readers have
this experience,
You tax the kidneys overwork them
They can't keep up tho continual strain;
The bnck gives out It aches and pains;
Urinary troubles ret In;
Don t wait longer take Doan's Kidney
rills.
Omaha people tell you how they act.
Mr. John C. Hooller, stock keeper of tho
third floor In McCord-Brndy Co, 'a wholesale
grocery, living at 2627 Charles street, says:
"I had a weak back for nearly three years
Sometimes It ached contlnunlly, particular
ly so if I stooped or lifted. I used medl
rlnes said to bo good for tho kidneys, but
the trouble still continued. An announce
ment about Doan's Kidney Pills in our dally
papers led me to procuro a box nt Kuhn
& Co.'s drug store, corner 15th and Doug'
las street, Tho treatment cured me."

In a tncaiuro will affect the yellow pine
business, so that there Is little probability
of a break In prices from that quarter."
THAT OFFENSIVE TEXT BOOK
fltinerlntriiilent I'enrsc's Anmtcr o
lIUIioii Si'Mtwirll's Letter of
( rlllclnm.
When asked concerning the criticism made
by Bishop Scannell last Sunday upon a text
book used In the High school, Superintend
ent Pcarse said: "Tho school authorities
do not by any means consider the work on
mddlaeval history a model text book. Un
fortunately there appears ti be no model
text book upon this subject published. Wo
do not, however, think the objection to tho
book is that It Is unfair toward the Catholic
church or Its teachings. We think that
the printing of all that was said upon thn
ubjects referred to by tho bishop would
convince nlmost any ono that there was a
rather full statement of both sides of tho
ense, and would not give the Impression
cither that the doctrines referred to were
then heard of for tho first time or that
tho Institution of raonsstlclsm was wholly
or chiefly bad.
"Ono of the things which the High school
does not havo Is a theological department,
nnd the teachings of theology or of the
dogmas of various Churches or religious
sects Is prohibited. In the study of history
tho formulation and adoption nnd changu
occurring from time to tlmo In religious
beliefs Is discussed as n part of tho subject
matter of history. Tho changes In theory
nd now discoveries In science, ns well ns
tho rlso and decline of theories and changes
t form In government are also studied and
discussed.
"If the text book contains any misstate
ments of fart the school authorities will be
glad to bo shown tho errors. There seems,
however, no occasion to object to tho cor
rect statement of proper facts."
"Falling to find rollef from thu grlp with
old methods, I took Dr. Allies' Pain Pills,
Nervine nnd Nerve and Liver Pills and was
permanently cured." Oust. Egan, Jackson,
Mich.
VAN KURAN IS KNOWN HERE
Alleged Itnllrontl DrfnnUrr Formerly
Rmnlojeri In Union I'ncllla
(inters.
The dispatch In The Boo yesterday morn
ing telling of tho alleged shortago In the ac
counts of Arthur J, Van Kuran, fo.-merly
ocnl treasurer of the Oregon Short Line at
Salt Lako City, but now under susponslon,
was tho chief themo among tho staff at tho
Union Pacific headquarters, for Van Kuran
s known to every employe who has been
thero for moro than three years. All were
loth to believe the report.
Van Kuran's family lived In Omaha
mnny years and wns well known nnd highly
respected. For sixteen years ho was at
tached to the ofllco of the local treasurer
of the Union Pacific and was a trusted em
ploye. When ho left throe years ago ho
was chief clerk and was believed to bo a
perfectly straightforward, honest man.
Outside tho ofllco Van Kuran was equally
popular and hla singing won for him a high
plnco in tho social community. During his
residence In this city he sang for somo of
the leading churches. Ills friends hope that
tho Investigation which Is being made will
exonerato Van Kuran from any fault.
PARISH FILES APPEAL BOND
Will Tnke Content for Office of Connty
Attorney from County to
Illotrlct Court,
That John W. Parish has not given un
his contest for tho office of county nt
torney Is shown by tho fact that ho filed an
nppeal bond with the clerk of tho county
court yesterday morning. The bond Is
signed by tho Fidelity and Deposit company
or Maryland.
Parish will enrry the case to the district
court, whero ho promises to produco the
evidence to provo tho charges of fraud
upon which tho contest case is based. In
tho county court the contestant rested' his
case upon tho completion of tho recount
of tho official ballots, not bringing In any
evidence on the charges . of fraud, and
Judge VlnBonhnlcr ordered Judgment for
Shields.

GENERAL EXCHANGE OF BUILDING IDEAS
Vnrlnnn I'lnna Have Ilren Mentlonrit
From Time to Time anil Now the
Committee Scekn n Con
sensu tif Opinion,
The auditorium committee Is now consid
ering meeting of stockholders to be held In
n week or two for tho purpose of deciding
upon tho general plans of the proposed
structure. It Is tho expectation of the
ommlttco to hnve at least 100,000 shares of
lock represented nt tho meeting, and It Is
announced that If persons who expect to
tako stock In tho enterprise deslro to have
volco In tho mnttcr of the form and stylo
f the building they should send In their
ubRcrlptlons nt once, so they may be repro
entcd In tho stockholders' meeting.
Several plans nro under consideration by
stockholders. Tho plan nt first In the minds
of tho majority of tho coramltteo was for
tho construction of an auditorium simply,
ho seating capacity to be as large as tho
Izc of tho stto would permit.
L'hnnircN Arc Siifficeiitrri,
Many changes In this plan hnve been
suggested, prominent among which aro tho
construction of a music or concert room nt
ono end of the lot, tho building of assembly
rooms In n story to be added, and tho con
struction of rooms which could bo used as
rmorlea for tho Thurston Itlflcs and Omaha
Guards.
A new suggestion, nnd ono which meets,
with nlmost unlvcrsnl favor, Is to comblno
the auditorium and tho den of Ak-Snr-Ben.
Under this plnn a basement would bo con
structed capablo of being used as a work
room fqr tho construction of floats. The
auditorium proper would bo used for the
banquet, tho Initiations and the annual ball
of tho festival nocloty and the question of
a permanent homo for Ak-Sar-Bon would
be settled for all time.
All of these suggestions will be consid
ered nt tho stockholders' meeting to bo hold
soon, and while final plans will probably
not bo determined upon, It is possible that
such Impetus will be given to ono Idea by
tho first meeting that alt of tho others will
be out of the running.

Draw Backs
Come Backs
"Even the very best of things have their drawbacks
says the clerk at the Shorman-MeConnell Drug Co. tcb
terday as he handed the customer a porous plaster."
Draw backs and comebacks arc very essential in all
kinds of business. Clothing that has all the good points
that you expect in good clothing will draw back a cus
tomer. We have customers who come back to this store
every time there is any clothing to buy, -why! because
good values will draw back.''. If you know of anyone
who has purchased clothing at this store that didn't
come back again we'd like to know it. If the garment
wasn't satisfactory and he failed to let us know, it's his
own fault, not ours, we make all wrongs right we want
Nebraska clothing to draw you bnck. Yesterday we told
you about two suits one at' $4.25, the other at ?5.00, not
much difference in the price but ono is of the herring
bone pattern, the other plain black both excellent val
uesboth worth more than we ask you for them. They
are regular comebackers, they draw you closer to us
they assure you that Nebraska clothing is good clothing.
