It.
Ed. Howtll, bos Enitlisli will be nomi
nated on thn first ballot.
Harry Miller, ami-boss Abbott will be
nominated on the Brut ballot.
These were nj-itenirnts of thn leaders of
the two factions of tbe lo.nl democracy af
ter the smoke had cleared away from the
primary battle of Thursday. Neither Mr.
Howell nor Mr. Miller would (t've figures In
detail to substantiate his statement. Howf 11
aid that 106 Eur1ili delegates had been
elr-ted In the city of Omaha and the otlicr
twenty-two necesary to nominate would lie
for hrominfr from Snath Omnha and the
country. Miller conceded nlm-y-twn votes
to English from the city delegates. elaimloR
only fifty four for Abbott, but he added that
his candidate, would have forty-three dele
gates from South O.-.iaha and forty-seven
from the .country precincts, making In all
144, rr ulxteen more than the necessary
number.
A a nmtter of fact, Abbott and English
plit nearly even in Omaha and South
Omaha and tho deli-pales from the country
precincts, practically all of whom aro unlu
tructed, will hold the balanco of power in
tho convention. For that reason it would
be extremely hazardous to predict what will
happen in Saturday's convention.
Contents In Oinalia.
In the city of Omaha there were contests
tn four wardB, and in the Second, Fourth
and Seventh the Herdman-IIowell machine
managed ,0 land 1H delegates. In the
Eighth nine of. tho Hcrdman ticket and
even of the Abbott ticket were elected, but
Ignatius Jehovah Dun, "deputr county
attorney In and for Douglas county, Ne
braska," waa placed on tho Hcrdman ticket
with tho understanding that hla vote was
pledged to Mr. Abbott tha break Is an even
one as far as the county attorneyship Is
concerned.
In the. Second ward, the home of the
Herdmans, the fight was waged In earnest
all day, and It was not until the votes
wero counted that It was realized how one
aided the contest was. As there waa no
contest In tha First ward the workers of
, each faction were present in large num
bers from that precinct. When the votea
- were counted It waa found that out of a
total of 252 votea, 171 straight bad been
cast for the English ticket and 81 for the
ticket whose dtlegntes favored the nomina
tion of Lysle Abbott. In the count of the
cratches, the high man on the winning
ticket was found to have received 191
votes, while the high man on tho other
ticket bad received 98. There was no op
position to John H. Kllllan for assessor.
In Abbott's Own Ward.
In Abbott's own ward, the Fourth, he
lost, but by so narrow a margin that he
and his friends of the County Democracy
are Inclined to view It as a victory over
the Jacksonlan element, which heretofore
baa been much in preponderance there. The
Herdman delegates averaged 78.7 and the
Abbott delegates 73.1, or only five less.
Thomas A. Donohoe, tha high man on the
Abbott" delegation, received 76 votea, and
Max Fliess, the low man of the Herdman
contingent, received 77. ' There wore 150
votes caat and of these there were 69 with
the cross In the Abbott circle and 74 with
It In the English circle. Abbott, who, with
L. J. riattl, watched the count, stated aft
erwards that the ten friends of his who
reached the door Just one minute late loat
him the ward.
Notwithstanding the strenuous efforts of
Harry Miller, Charlea E. Fanning and
others to defeat It, the Herdman ticket won
out in the Seventh with votes to spare, the
count showing Herdman 75 straight and the
Abbott ticket 36 straight. Of the acatterlng
rotes, the Herdiuans also got the big end.
The highest vote cast for one man was 85,
James Schnelderwlnd uud A. Murphy each
receiving that number. Both aides put In
. a good day and the result waa the casting
of 129 ballots.
v In the Eighth ward the contest was close
and, as a result, there will be a split del
egation, with nlue from the English ticket
and seven from the Abbott camp. However
one of the English delegates elected Is
pledged to Abbott. The five low men re
eelved 83 votes each, and of these three
were Abbott men and two were English
men. Fifteen men received more than IS
voteB, and as the ward waa entitled to
sixteen delegates In the convention lots
were drawn to see which should be the
sixteenth man. The chance fell to James
Swift, an adhorent of the Herdman fac
tlon.

ELP YOU SEE THINGS
just as they are the plu
tjre in the Illustrated
Bee are made from photographs and
are consequently correct. The
camera gets them accurately, aud If
tho man behind the camera under
stands his business, the pictures are
artistic as well as truthful. The Bee
uses only pictures made by experts
lis staff artists are among the best
In the country. Results speak for
themselves.
r 0R0NATI0N W LEK is at last here.
Americana, no matter what
their politics are all Interested In the
momentous historical events now
transpiring In London. In the next
livsue of The Illustrated Bee will be
found a splendid lot of pictures of
the most important personages con
cerned in this affair. Including His
Majesty King Edward VII, Her Ma
Jlsty Queen Alexandra, Lord Mayor
Dlmmesdale of London, Lord Balis
bury, Joueph Chamberlain, Ambassa
dor Choate and Special Envoy Reld.
A special article on coronations Is
also a part of the number.
IING EDWARD'S CHILDHOOt is the
topic tit Fritnk O. Carpenter's
weekly letter, he having dropped
Commerce long enough to collect and
transmit some very Interesting
stories of the present monarch of
Great Britain's babyhood. This
article is Illustrated from photo
graphs of paintings, showing the
king from the age of 6 months to
the time of his first sailor suit. His
christening, his coronation as prince
of Wales, his fight with a fisher boy
of his own age and other interesting
bits of his boyhood career are told of
in a pleasant, chatty way. .
OUEEN ALEXANDRA is a woman as
woll as a queen, and an Ameri
can woman who was suddenly "com
manded by the queen" to call, tella
a most Interesting story of how she
hastily prepared to answer a sum
mons that oame to her most
strangely, only to find that she was
to have the pleasure of discussing
with the queen of England the ap
proaching nuptials of a young woman
in whom they were mutually inter
ested. TRAVELING MEN LIKE FUN as well as
must people and know how to
go about to make it for themselves
and others. Last week the Iowa
Council of the United Commercial
Travelers met at Council Bluffs.
When they had transacted their busi
ness, they adjourned to a grove for a
picnic, and took along their famlllea
and their friends. The Bee staff
photographer went over with hla
camera, and what he saw makes an
Interesting group of pictures In the
next issue of Tha Illustrated Bee.
PHOTOGRAPHING A TORNADO is a feat
not often accomplished, for as
a rule the twisters will neither sit
still nor look pleasant, and .photo
graphers usually get busy at some
thing else when one of these custo
mers heaves in sight. But one day
last month Mr. H. Van Deusen of
Scrlbner secured some excellent
photographs of a bevy of tornadoes
that formed near that town. He sent
a set to The Bee, and excellent half
tone engravings made from them will
show what a tornado In action looks
like.
NEW YORK MILLIONAIRES are going
in more than ver for fine
horses. Private race tracks and
polo grounds are a feature of their
existence, while the coaches and
other turnouts are becoming things of
utility aa well as display. A well
written article tolls of tha palaces
devoted to the housing of these
patrician animals and their equip
ment, while excellent photographs
showing several of the best known
men and women of the country afford
the illustrations for the text.
MANY OTHER THINGS have contrlbu
ted to the forthcoming- number
of The Illsutrated Bee, for example:
There is a fine picture ot Rt. Rev. P.
J. Garrtgan. D. D., the new bishop
cf Sioux City; scenes at the Modern
Woodmen of America memorial
services at Hanscom park last Sun
day, and personal pictures ot more
than passing Interest, with the usual
comment, short stories, anecdotes
and the like. It you are not a sub

question of the amount of the levy would be
determined within five minutes after the

MANY CHURCH PEOPLE MEET
Members ot Several Denominations at
Christian Reception Pre
liminary to Convention.
Hundreds of people from Omaha, South
Omaha and Council Bluffs gathered in the
ballroom at the Millard hotel last night In
attendance at the open reception given by
the general committee on arrangements for
the great Chrtst'an church convention to be
held in Omaha October 16-23. The object of
this committee In giving this reception was
to cultivate general acquaintance among the
four Christian churches of these three tit
les and to Interest also In the coming con
vention the general population mere than
baa been done. In both ways the affair was
a success, as the attendance from the Chris
tian churches and from those ot other de
nominations and from non-church people
was large.
These four churches must bear the bru it
ot the responsibility for the proper recep
tion and entertainment of the thousands
of "Chrtctian church people who will flock
Into Omaha from all points cf the compass
next October. The responsibility is great,
but these churches have accepted It 111 its
fullest significance and do not intend to
shirk any of It. To this end they have ap
pointed a general committee of arrange
ments, with headquarters established at the
Mill hot.l. T.;s efheers of this committee
are:
C. S. Pains, chairman; J. H. Taylor,
vice chairman; W. A. Saunders, correspond
ing secretary; W. W. Siabaugh, treasurer;
R. M. Clark, recording secretary; L. R.
Smith, financial secretary; Nellie A. Cedar
land, chief clerk.
The executive committee, meanwhile, com
prises: C. S. Paloe, W. A. Saunders, R. M
Clark,. Harry O. Hill. Dr. W. J. Slabaugb,
W. A. Baldwin, J. H. Taylor, W. W. Sla

all arrangements for the coming convention,
but they require the hesrty ao-operatlon oi
the entire church body to make their work
successful.

waa provided) A large orchestra discoursed
music during the evening and Frank Dunlop,
the reader, gave several interesting selec
tions. Then Mr. Paine was called upon
to outline the plans for the convention and
for the entertainment of the delegates and
other factors In the work spoke afterward.
TWELVE CARS OF SHRINERS
Large Eastern Delegation Met and
Briefly Entertained by
Tanglera.
A train of twelve cars bearing the larg
eft caravan of Shrlncra to cross the great
American desert in one party, 235 In all,
pulled Into the I'nion rtatlon at 1:60 last
night over the t'hlnn I'acrflc from. Denver
and from then until 10 o'clock there was
a lively time, for a big party of Tangier
temple representatives, with ladles, was at
the depot to greet the Imperial special.
Arrangements had boen made for a big
time at the Tangier quarters, as the visi
tors were expected to arrive In the after
noon and remain several hours. They were
late, however, owing to a delay west and
south of Denver, aud when they learned
that It would cost them $r00 more In cold
cash if they did not reach Chicago by 10
o'clock' this morning they decided to forego
Gate City Joys and let the Chicago, Mil
waukee & St. Taul rood have a chance to
make the run from here In twelve hours
If It could.
Shrlners from Mecca temple of New York
City predominated. There were othera from
Kismet of Brooklyn, Cyprus of Albany, Pal
estine of Providence, Oriental of Troy and
Pyramid of Bridgeport, Conn. All were in
fez and so were the Omaha men, and 300
red tops made a great showing in the big
waiting room as the Shrlners assembled to
hear a few speeches.
M. A. Hall of Omaha told how sad it
made Tangier temple not to have the east
erners at Its own quarters and Potentate
C. S. Benedict of Mecca responded with
expressions of regret at being compelled
to hurry on through. Past Imperial Poten
tate W. B. Melllsh of Cincinnati was an
other speaker and Judge Fawcett of Omaha
was last to orate. All four addressed the
multitude from the top of a radiator.
When the- travelers finally left, each one
had a boutonniere and a bunch of cigars.
A committee of Shrlners from Tangier tem
ple had escorted them in from Grand Is
land, having gone out there to meet them
last night.
Amusements
At the Boyd.
LaBt night the bill of. the Ferris Stock
company at the Boyd theater was changed,
and "The Creole" Is to be the offering the
rest of the week. This is a strong French
play of a rather melodramatic cast, but
possessing the merit of telling an interest
ing story. Miss Hayward has the main part,
and gives a powerful presentation of the
heroine, a Creole who has been transplanted
to Paris, who has quarreled with and been
shot by her lover; who has seen him in the
galleys, sent there for hla attack on her,
and who later finds herself queen of a
fashionable gambling house, while her
lover, . whom she still loves, freed from
prison slavery, is married under an as
sumed namj and living happily. The work
ing out of the plot around these central fig
ures ts quite clever. The piece abounds
in talk In which all the characters take
part. It la perfectly staged, the scenes In
tbe gambling house presided over by the
Creole belngreally beautiful.
MISS MAGEE ON JAIL WORK
Explains Her Misunderstanding
with ' Woman's Christian
1 Temperance Inlon. ' '
OMAHA, June 19. To the Editor of The
Bee: When I accepted the work In tho
west wing of the county Jail under tho
Woman's Christian Temperance union
about two years ago I was not aware, nor
was I informed, of the existence of any
rules governing their work aside from the
rules that ordinarily govern Christian work
among unfortunates, and it was only a
short time ago that I became aware that
I had violated any of the method em
ployed in their prison work.
About eight months ago I came into pos
session of Information that led me to Inter
view Judge Haker on behalf of two men
then conllned In the west wing of the Jail,
and upon the strength of this Information
Judge Maker shortened their sentences,
which action upon Ills part would aeem
to Justify my nclion In conferring with
him regarding them. In golni? to Judo
Baker, however. I did so entirely upon
my own responsibility and in no way in
cluded the Woman's Christian Temperance
union. My action wnn known to the lull
authorities at tho time.
While the union's Jail superintendent
learned of ny Interview with Judge Baker
shortly nfter it occurred, It was only a
short time ago that the union criticised my
action. At that time the Incident was ex
plained to tho women and while I learned
for the lirBt time that I hnd violated their
rules, the right and my duty in the matter
seemed so apparent that I told them I
would feel compelled to do the same thing
aulii under similar circumstances.
Subsequent events made it impossible for
me to work harmoniously under their su
perintendent and i asked that I miKht be
allowed' to work under th- union rathi-r
than Its superintendent. This thev re
fused to allow me to do, and I withdrew
from the work, only returning there last
Sabbath upon request of the men confined
In the west wing, and with full consent cf
the Jail authorities.
This Is the extent of my insubordination,
and whtlo I regret the ui:pl.uaiitne.H ihit
has arlsi n. 1 cannot but feel ihut It.
might easily have bee.i avoided had the
union ptrsonally lnves' iK.-ited my work and
methods at the Jail. While 1 have not re
newed my membership In the local union
this yeHf, I hal! continue to wear the
white ribbon and work In Its interests.
