"Governor't Bight" without a governor
brought out the largest crowd which bat
assembled at the den of Ak-Sar-Ben this
year, and the merr.bershtp did not all come
from outside of tbe city, as tlxty-four local
members, the largest number enrolled at
tcy night of the present season, were
psssed through the doors lst night, Lin
coln business men. who hsd accepted the
invitation of the board of governors to be
present, were also conspicuous by their
absence, only cine men of the entire mem
bership of the Lincoln Commercial club
being ireser-t.
The absence cf Governor Savtge acd hit
staff, as well as cf the other ttste officers,
occasioned considerable comment. The gov
ernor had been InTitel by the secretary of
the society to be present oce night thlt
summer and had fxed hit own time. It
was widely advertised acd a large number
c people from other towct in the ttat
derided to come on the night tbe ttate
officers were to be present. In place of
coming to Omaha. Governor Savage was la
Idaho, aid the other ttate officers failed
to put tn an appearance. If the knlgh't
were denied the opportunity of teeing a
governor and a cumber of state officers,
thty did see two candidates for those
honors, ss both John H. Mickey cf Oceola
acd E. G. MrG'.lton of Omaha, candidate
for governor and lieutenant governor, re
spectively, co the rcpublicao ticket, were
present. Mr. McGiltcn was the principal
speaker cf the evening aci paid high
tribute to the work of the society In build
ing cp tbe business tnterettt of the ttate
and bringing a more cordial feeling Into the
relations between the business men of
Omaha and those of other parti of the
ttate.
Look a Cast to Mickey.
Mr. Mickey, who hat resided In tbe ttate
for twenty-six years, told of tome of hit
experiences tn the early dayt cf the state
and congratulated the city and ttate upon
the work cf the order.
In tumiaing up the work of the society
to far thlt year. W. R. Bennett taid that
the cerrtKrt of the hustling committee had
fixed upon Hi at the total number of resi
dent members of the order to ? reported
at this meeting, while the actual number
was H2. a number much In excett of the
total membership at the same time last
year.
With the large crowd present the games
were lnteretacg, especially one in which
F. J. Kimball wat pitted against a great
unknown. The stakes ran high and while
Mr. Kimball wen out. hit opponent press-.'
him so clcte that it wat a question whlrTt
had accumulated the greater part of the
counters. However, thlt play of Mr. Kimball
waa thrown Into the shade by the mag
nificent work of John Scott, who played In
tuch form In the finals at to have the en
tire crowd at hit table broke before the
game ended.
In the absence of M. A. Hall. J. H.

The great popularity of Pervna
as a catarrh remedy has tempted
many people to imitate Pervna.
A great many so-called catarrh
remedies and catarrh tonics are
to be found in many drug stores.
These remedies can be procured
by the druggist very much cheaper
than Pervna. Pervna can only
be obtained at a uniform price
and do druggist can get tt a cent
cheeper.
Thus tt is that druggists are
tempted to substitute tbe cheap
imitations of Peruna tor Pervna.
It Is done eery day without a
doubt
When a patient calls at a drug
store to procure some Peruna and
tbe druggist recommends some
thing else that will be Just as good,
it may be that he does not always
recognize the responsibility that
be Is taking upon himself. Such
a substitute Is always sure to re
sult In failure.
The claim of Peruna to being
the standard catarrh remedy of
tbe world Is based upon tbe fol
lowing facts :
It has tbe endorsement of
