Tho Omaha plant of the American Smelt
ing ami Kenning company Is soon to he
operated on a more extended hauls, as the
result of a temporary suspension of the
Argentlno (Kan.) works.
A Kansas City dispatch says:
"Tho Argentine smelter, one of the larg
est plants owned by the American Smelting
ond Refining company, nnd which employs
SCO men, will, It Is announced, he closed
down September 15. Anslstnnt Superintend
ent McDonald says the shutdown Is to give
tho plant n thorough cleaning -nnd denies
as utterly untrue n rumor that the purpose
Is to trace an alleged shortage of J100.000 In
the ore accounts. It 1b Mated that this
vork can be finished by January 1. Whether
tho smelter will ho rcopimd at that time
will, It Is said, be determined by the board
of directors at n meeting In Now York Sep
tember 11. A. It. Myer, a local member of
tho board, Is now In New York and Superin
tendent Page Is In Virginia."
Ouy C. Ilarton of Omaha, member of the
poard. said- "Tho question whtther to make
extensive repairs or to rebuild the plant
completely Is now under consideration. How
long the plant will bo shut down I do not
know. There Is no shortage at the Argen
tine plant. The business will bo handled
nt the Omaha plant. This arrangement Is
only temporary, however, ns It Is not pro
posed to permanently close tho Argentlno
plant. During the shutdown some of the
employes will bo transferred to tho Kl

"I'vo slept under a shed with tho ther
mometer way down below zero," said tho
tramp to a Hoston Herald reporter, "and
I've gone two long days with nothing to
cast, but I'm telling you straight that when
X once had $1,000 In my pocket I was worse
off than at any other time 1 can remem
ber. I had Just been lot out of tho llrlde
wrll In Chicago nnd wnH begging on the
streets and was being turned down on
every hand, when I picked up n $1,000 bill
on tho sidewalk. I thought It was a dol
lar nnd you bet I made a hustle to get
down a sldo street. When I dodged Into
a doorway nnd made out that I was $1,000
ahead of tho game the sweat started from
every pore and ray knees knocked together.
I was regularly seasick for ten minutes
and my heart thumped away until I thought
It would break out.
"Tint $1,000 meant a heap for ine. you
understand, but 1 'was so excited that It
was two hours before I could do any plan
ning. The first thing was to buy n new
suit of clothes nnd I entered a storo and
picked them out. When I exhibited that
$1,000 bill' the clothier ran to tho door
to call n policeman. I got nway by a
light squeeze, nnd then 1 realized the sit
uation. Tramp that I was, I couldn't get
It changed nt a bank nor use It to make
jno comfortable. If it had been a $10 bill

t could have hail lodgings and a bed, but
I'm telling you that I walked the streets
as hungry as a shark and slept at police
stations and In lumber yards.
"Under the circumstances the hill might
as well have been a piece of brown paper.
I tried all sorts of dodges to get It busted,
but It was no go, Kvery time I showed
It I ran the risk of nrrcst. I offered a
butcher $100 to get It changed, hut ho re
fused to have anything to do with It. I'd
have sold It for half price and been glad
to, but there was no such thing as making
a deal. Finally, In despair. I went to one
of the newepaper offices and looked up
the advertisements for the week past.
The loser had advertised and I went to
his office In a big building and gave up the
bill. The reward was 50, but he counted
out $10 on top of that and said:
" 'I wouldn't have believed there was
such honesty In the world. You could
have kept the bill as well as not.'
"He took down my name nnd nil that
and gave the nffalr away to the reporters.
They wrote me up as the 'honest tramp'
nnd had my picture In the papers, but you
may guess I didn't enjoy It overmuch. 1
had fCO In place of $1,000, and ns for my
honesty, It was all bosh. I returned the
bill becnuho I had to, and, though I'm
hungry nnd dead broke and don't know
where to turn In for the night, I'm not
looking for any more big finds. Something
with a figure "2" In tho corner will Just
about fit my vestpneket."

The most notable of tho younger women
who are taking the mantle that falls from
the shoulders of Lucy Stone, Elizabeth Cady
Stanton, Mary A. Llvcrmorc nnd Susan 11.
Anthony Is Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, now
ireldcnt of the Nntlonal association. .Mrs.
Catt Is a college woman nnd a graduated
lawyer. She also can cook, make her own
dresses and trim her own hats and is a
lino housekeeper. She has been a reporter
nnd an editor. Horn of revolutionary stock
sho Is a nntlve of Illpon. Wis. She was
educated in Iowa and was superintendent
of schools nt Maaou City. The cases of
hardship and suffering among Belf-support-tng
women encountered while a reporter
lltst drew her attention to the subject of
woman's rights and she went on tho plat
form In their behalf. Ten years ago she
spoke for tho first tlmo In Iloston on the
suffrage question and the young woman
from out went electrified her nudlrncc. To
day sho shows In magnetic perBtinslvenoiH,
clear-cut logic and irresistible humor the
power which comes through experience. Sho

the Atlantic, Gulf nnd Pacific company,
engineers nnd contractors. At their hand
Borne home in Densonhurst, U I., both dis
pense n grnclouu hospitality to favored
friends. Each day both como to their New
York ofilccs. Mrs. Catt gives all of her
time to the work of tho Nntlonal associa
tion without saliiry.
One of the most enthusiastic and efficient
ninccrs of the association has been Mrs.
Rachel Foster Avery, who has served as
corresponding secretary for twenty-eno
yenrs, slnee she was a girl In her teens.
Sho has recently resigned tho office and
been succeeded by Miss Kate Oordon of
New Orleans. Tho new etcrctary Is very
influential In her own city nnd was glvfii
a medal by the UuhIiicss Men's club for her
part in currying the municipal election In
favor of street drainage. In Louisiana
women enn vote cither In person or by
proxy on such questions. Miss Gordon was
president of an organization of women for
this purpose and collecting the votes of 300
who were too timid to go to tho polls she
cast them In favor of tho measure. Sho has
nsEumcd her duties at the national suffrage
headquarters In New York.
Tho only other new officer Is Dr. Cora
Smith Eaton of Minneapolis, who at the

Shaw gave up her parish work for tho en
franchisement of women. For tho last
ten years she has been vice presldcnt-nt-
large of the association and her wonderful
platform personality has been a strong
fnctor In tho rause. Miss Shaw spends
her summers nt her lovely cottago at Capo
Cod.
Miss Alice Stone niackwoll, recording sec
rotary, tho daughter of Lucy Stone, edits

elnl Proposition Additional
VotliiK I'reelnctn.
At Monday night's meeting of tho council,
it was agreed that the city engineer should
Immediately estimate the cost of connect
ing the Q street sewer with the city
sanitary sewer and advertise for bids for
tho worK. In compliance with Instructions
the engineer yesterday measured the dis
tance nnd estimated the cost at between
$1,200 and $1,600. Sewer pipe Is worth
about $1 a foot and the excavation will cost
half of this amount. The city sanitary
sewer on Railroad avenue Is twelve feet
higher than thu stock yards sewer and It
will bo ncccssury, providing that tho work
Is done, to lay a portion of the pipe on the
surface. Should the present plan ho car
ried out the city sanltnry sower would be
tapped nt the cast end of the () street vlu
duct. Whllo Investigating tho matter city
ofilclals found yesterday n contract entered
Into In August, 1SS8, with the Stock Yards
company which prohibits the city from
turning any storm water Into the Joint
sanitary sewer. This contract was mado
when W. O. Sloana wns mayor nnd Tom
Hoctor city clerk. On the part of tho Stock
Yards company the document is signed by
W. A. Paxton, president, and J. C. Sharp,
secretary.
For the privilege of connecting with this
sanitary sewer the city paid to tho Stock
Yards company the sum of $10,174.00. This
sum represents a portion of tho cost of
boring tho tunnel which begins at Seven
teenth and Jefferson streets nnd ends at
Twelfth and Y streets.
Should tho provisions of the contract
bo lived up to tho city cannot use the 0
street sower for storm water purposes. This
sanitary sewer Is now full and engineers
who have looked over the ground do not
think It ndvlsnblo to make the connection
directed by tho council, even though the
contract permitted It.
In the face of this contract It looks ns If
tho city were up ugolnst n financial prnposl-
Ion. As the voting of bonds for sewer
purposes is considered to tie out of tho
question Mud creek will still ho used Jointly
by the city nnd the packers and tho authori
ties of Sarpy county will not be Interfered
with In their attempt to secure a grand
tiry Investigation.
Additional VotliiK Precincts,
Slnco the ordinance has been Introduced
providing for the locating of a number of
additional voting precincts members of the
council are being Importuned to use their
influence to change some of tho district
boundary lines, Complaints huvu been made
about the boundary lines In nearly every
ward and It will be a hard matter for the
Judiciary committee to rcconcllo tho differ
ences among the voters In the various
wards. No attempt will be made to enforce
the new district boundaries until after tho
fall registration, ns the present registration
Is for four wnrds, A member of the Judici
ary committee said yesterday that whllo
some slight changes might bo made In tho
divisions of the wnrds there would be no
radical change In the ordinance as already
outlined.
A.ixlKiinir nt f Tencliers.
As was to bo expected, there was moro
or less complaint yesterday about the as
signment of teachers. Superintendent
McLenn consulted with the members of the
Hoard of Education nnd made the assign
ments with a view of giving tho schools tho
best advantages attainable. As a rule, how
ever, tho assignments nre considered satis
factory and tho new superintendent Is being
complimented on his tact and tho manner
In which he takes hold of tho affairs of this
school district.
Another Vliuluet NeeiU lleiinlrs.
While tho Stock Yards company Is en
gaged in making extensive repairs to the L
street viaduct the attention of the com
pany will be called by tho city officials to
tho planking on tho Q street bridge. As
there Is a great deal of traffic over this
bridge In addition to tho running of strcot
cars tho Btructuro wenrs ranldly. Tho
planking which was laid some months ago
Is rapidly wearing out and an entirely new
Mooring is needed. It wns stated yostcrday
by a city official that if tho same planking
be laid on tho Q street bridge that Is now
being placed on the L street viaduct there
would be no trouble or complaint for n
number of years.
HnntlliiK for Voters' Names.
Democratic aspirants for the ofilco of
county commissioner nre working hard to
secure the names of voters from the regis
tration books. Just now two clerks nro en
gaged In making copies of last full's regis
tration In order that a personal canvass
mny bo made by tho candidates Interested.
Yesterday's talk wan to tho effect that tho
fight lay between John J. Rynn and Miles
Welsh, These two candidates appear to bo
running neck nnd neck. As one democrat
put it last night: "There Is no tolling
where the race will end, but something
will drop within the next few days."

Hnltbas Jotter, president of tho brewing
company, nald yesterday that his agents
wero now advertising for bids for the con
struction of an nddltlon to his prcseut
plant. The new building, which It Is stated
will bo commenced within tho next month,
mentis nn expenditure of not less than
$123,000. It is planned that the new build
ings will bo constructed south of tho bot

torn down In order to make room for the
now structure, which Is to be five stories In

WAV TVIMISIITTIM MACIIIMl.
lie M'tipttou of the l.ntcM Indention
Vilim Ortllmiry Type.
Some of tho best Inventive genius in the
United States has been devoted to the solu
tion of the typesetting problem, reports the
Scientific American, Tho latest product of
invention Is the Alexander Dow composing
machine, The machine uses foundry typo
of any size from flvo to twelve point, and
tho change of font from one size to nnothcr
required but a few minutes. Tho speed of
tho composing machine is limited only by
tho ability of tho operator, the mechanism
being normnlly sot to nllow n maximum of
nbout 12,000 ems per hour. The system of
composing Involves tho use of two ma
chines; one composing machine which sets
foundry types, character by character, lino
by line, nnd delivers them automatically
Justified on the galley, nnd the other n dis
tributing machine, one of which will supply
the magazines for about threo composing
machines. The Inttcr nre operated by ono
man each, nnd the power Is usually obtained
by n small electric motor. The type maga
zines will bo eeen directly above the key
board. They are four feet In length and will
contnln enough typo of the usual size to
supply nn operator for a day. The magazines
contnln three channels for the letter e, and
two channels each for tho other most used
letters. Matter enn be set up to a width of
C',4 Inches. Tho keyboard contains ninety
keys placed In four banks, tho arrangement
being thnt of the universal keyboard In
common use on nearly nil typewriters.
Tho operation of composing or setting
the typo consists In fingering the keyH un
til the line approaches completion. Upon
warning being given by n small bell the
operate completes or divides the final
word of the line, touches the line key nnd
continues tho manipulation of tho key
board. Tho typo feeds down Into nn up
right channel called the "stick," which
rotates so as to transfer the lino to tho
raceway, which is horizontal. Here auto
matic mechanism mensures tho lino and
determines the proper combination of
spaces necessary to Justify It, separates tho
lino Into words, Inserts the proper spaces
In tho line. The line Is then automatically
pushed Into the galley nnd a lead or space
between the lines may be Inserted. All
these operations go on without attention
from tho operator, who Is composing the
next lino. Most of the machines built
heretofore havo depended upon tho weight
or gravity of tho types to enrry them
through certain portions of tho mechanism.
Tho Individual types nre so small that
when wet or dirty they nro apt to stick
to tho side of tho channels, resulting in
frequent stoppages. With tho composing
machino which wo aro describing this
source of trouble Is removed by tho use of
a positive-acting mechanism for moving tho
type at every point. The types nre held
In placo and pushed or thrust through
every movement. Tho types are assembled
In tho center nt tho foot of the two main
magazines. Reciprocating pushers take
the typo to tho center. Hero a qulck
nctlng blade thrusts tho typo Into nn up
right channel called tho "stick." Each
typo forces down tho preceding one. As
tho typeH enter Into tho stick they aro
directly In front of tho operator nnd may
bo read and corrected at will. Plain, rect
angular bits of brass Heryo to separate
the words temporarily. When tho lino Is
sulllelently full tho operator touches tho
lino key nnd thu stick turns quarter way
around, so that tho lino Is horizontal In
stead of vertical. Tho lino Is then pushed
out by n blade to a point on tho raceway
called tho "bridge," where the' Justification
begins.
The most ingenious part of tho wholo
apparatus Is tho jiistlficr. ft 'will ho re
membered that during tho' composition
plain spaces of equal size have been In
serted simply to separate tho words tem
porarily. These havo now to bo removed
to make placo for permanent spaces of
proper Justifying size.
As each word Is In turn forwarded to tho
galley n proper Justifying sjmco Is In
serted before It until tho wholu line In tho
galley Is perfectly Justified. Whenever
tho space key Is depressed tho fact Is reg
istered In tho calculating device, which Is
seen at the rear of the machino directly
back of tho magazine. When tho lino Is
ready to bo sent to the Justifying mechan
ism Its shortage Is automatically meas
ured and recorded by tho calculating
mechanism. Tho calculator having regis
tered say six Bpaces for the line nnd
thlrty-thrco hundredths of nn Inch spneo
to he filled, sets In position tho mechanism
for ejecting six spaces, selecting them from
tho ten sizes In the space magazines nnd
they nro then pushed Into lino as the
words are separated. It will bo seen that
tho keyboard operator need never consider
Justification nt all. chunges In tho measure
not even Interfering with It, nor do tho
corrections made by hand. The wholo
operation of Justifying a line occupies hut
a few seconds' time, bo thnt the justified
lino Is always out of tho way before tho
operator can finish nnothcr lino nnd pre
sent It to tho Justifying mechanism. When
tho last word of n lino Is readied tho
lino Is nt onco pushed down Into
the galley with tho matter that
precedes It. Tho machine Is provided with
various safety devices to protect It from
accidents, broken type, etc.
Tho typo matter which has boon set enn
be used for printing direct or for electro
typing nnd Is then ready for distribution.
The types nro specially nicked for distri
bution. The dend mottcr Is placed on tho
galley of the distributor In considerable
quantity. Tho distributor, like tho com
posing machine, hnndles tho type Irre
spective of Its condition. Tho galley
meciianlsm presses the typo firmly against
tho top, so thnt the upper lino Is lifted
off and pushed Into n raceway. From tho
forward end of this line rotating carriers
tako off the types with great rapidity and
transfer them to the proper channels
which radiate abovo the center of tho dis
tributor. Hattercd types or dirt In the

The young lovers sat beside the water
fall, relates the Smart Set. The rapids and
tho nearby whirlpool had a strange attrac
tion for tho romantic young girl. Sho had
heard tht stoty of tho unhappy maiden and
tho young brave who hud gone to their
doom, clasped In each other's arms, to tho
slow music of tho swan pong. Thnt seemed
very beautiful to her.
"Jack," she said, "If you aw mo strug
gling In tho water near the edgo of tho
falls would you Jump In after me?"
"What would bo thu use, my dear, when
I can't swim?" he answered.
"Hut at least we should perish together,"
Bho replied bravely.
"Yes. there would be no doubt of that,"
he returned, ahudderlng at the sound of tho
cruel waters.
"Hut haven't you often suld that you
would dlo for mu?" Mio usked, piqued at
his cc luness.
'No, my dear." replied her practical
lover. "If you'll remember, I've nlwnys

FREACHERY TO BEARER OF TRUCE
MlinntliiK "f Lieutenant In the llneU
Preelpltiiten 'Wiiriii Contllet, In
Wlileli Ainerleniin Are
Triumphant.
Several thousand people went out to Vln
Hon street park last night to sec how block
house No. 7 was captured and today their
throats aro sore, attesting the vigor with
which they cheered tho spectacle. It Is
probablo that few of those present had a
ery clear Idea of what a blockhou9o Is.
To most of them It called up visions of
nursery architecture, with a llttlu toddler
ns superintendent of construction; others
were reminded of n "full house" nnd want
It takes to beat It.
They enme away enlightened. They know
now that a blockhouse Is a kind of fort
built to protect the enemy, that it Inva
riably yields under attack and that It burns
with a red llame.
Tho spectacle was satisfactory. Tho lights
wero well arranged, tho UBiinl number of
aro lamps being reinforced with a giant
searchlight that wns trained on tho maneu
vering soldiers from the roof of tho grand
stnnd. I'l en mi ii t Pre 1 1 iii I mi rlcn.
The exhibition was by tho Omaha Ouards
and Thurston Rlllcs, supported by tho gat
llng gun squad nnd Abbott's Musical Union
band. Ell Hndglns was olllcer of the day,
Lieutenant James Allen, ndjutaut; Cnptaln
Richards nnd Lieutenant Fisher olllccrs of
tho guard, nnd Sergeant J. C. Arnout, ser
geant major. The program opened with h
guard mount, followed by a bayonet drill
by tho Omaha Ouards, commanded by Lieu
tenant o. t). Osborne. This feature was
well received, as tho briskness of the move
ment ndmlrnbly adapts It for spectacular
purposes. Then eamo tho company drill of
tho Thurston Rllles, commanded by Captain
Richards. They went through with dltllcult
maneuvers with rcmnrkahlo prcelslon. Tho
dress pa rail u closed this part of tho pro
grain,
With the exception of tho grand tlnnle, tho
gatllng gun drill was the hit of tho even
Ing. The squad was commanded by Scr
geant J. A. Arnout. Tho speed and skill
with which tho men Umbered and iiullm
bored the piece cnlled forth a hearty en
core.
Ono number on the program read "fun
In camp." A huckster driving ncross the
parade ground Is attacked by a hundred
soldiers, some of whom toss him In u
blanket, while others examine and cample
his wares. A pig and ticvcrul fowls escape
and are chased, to the glee of tho grand
stand nnd bleachers. The shoat runs around
tho diamond three times and Is finally
caught on third base.
The "striking of camp" was considerable
of a revelation to tho civilian clement of
the spectators, a row of ten tents being
made to disappear like one of tho trick
properties In nn exhibition by Herrmann.
Trnee-Ileiircr Shot IIimvii.
Tho taking of tho hlockhouso was re
served till the Inst. Tho lamps wero turned
out for a few minutes whllo tho ambuscades
were ptcpared; then tho searchlight was
trained upon a scouting party of Americans,
who discovered the stronghold of tho enemy.
Lieutenant Allen, bearing a Hag of truce
and supported by two privates, advanced to
demand surrender, nnd upon turning to re
tiro after the conference, was shot In the
hack by n treacherous Flllpluo.
Then came tho maneuvering for position
on tho part of the American forces, fol
lowed by tho attack. Many volleys wero
fired, nnd many wero left for dead on tho
field, among them Prlvutes Oreer and
Whltlock. Honors wero nbout even until
tho gatling gun nppeorcd, poured a torrent
of hot lead Into the blockhouse nnd turned
tho tide In favor of tho attacking force.
Then tho fortress burst into tlamo and
someone ran tho Stars and Stripes upon tho
ramparts. Tho grandstand was shaken with
cheers and In a glory of red firo tho ex
hibition closed.
Tho show will bo repeated tonight nnd
tomorrow night.

You drink fome beers that cause bilious headache. Perhaps
you think that all beers do.
The c.uise of biliousness Is the lack of age too much haste
to put the beer on the market. To ferment beer thoroughly
requires a process of months. Without it the fermentation takes
place in your stomach. That is the cause of biliousness.
Hurried beer is unhealthful. Schliti beer is kept for months
in refrigerating rooms with a capacity of 'JG5.000 barrels kept
almost at freezing point until it is well fermented. Schliti beer is
never marketed until thoroughly aged.
