The destiny of a child will bs given Into the liari'la of the first who is willing to accept It. Mra. F. M. Benedict, housekeeper and department commander of a double flat t 1702-04 Webster atreet, has a baby that she doesn't mother, doesn't know, doesn't want, doeen't have time to care for and doe n't propose to keep. He was left at the door of Mrs. Annie Hartman, a roomer on the third floor of the corner flat, some time between 9:30 and 10:30 Wednesday night. Ills apparel was clean and fairly rood and he was wrapped In bis own tiny cloak, with a new milk bottle and other trappings at his side. There was also a note, which reads: OMAIIA, Neb., pear Friends Flense be kind to little Teddlc, who aa born m June 22, 1(2. Ills mother was led astray. Bho Is weakly now and unable to take him to the Child flavin Institute on Eighteenth and Ohio, and hopes that ymi will take him there, for ehe knows he will have a (rood home there. Pray oblige a heart-broken mother and have merry upon little Teddle. 1 God's blessing. Ooodby. Paasrs with a Flash. When Mrs. Hartman came home and found this accumulation at her threshold he took Inventory and concluded there was nothing In it that ehe had any use for. Promptly she descended to Mrs. Benedict's office on the first floor and deposited the bundle on a couch, advising that the police be notified. Mrs. Benedict, who already carries a considerable burden of woes, acted on the suggestion. The police, however, replied that with criminals in the cells and newspaper reporters in the office, they had all the trouble they could care for and suggested that the county commissioners were the ones to call on. The commis sioners were gone hours before, and Mra. Benedict spent the night in wrathful pa rade with the walling Infant in her arms. Early yesterday she resumed her tele phoning. The county commissioners were extremely sorry, but could give no relief. They proposed the Child Saving institute. The Child Saving institute's superintendent reported that a tall and weakly woman with such an infant had called the day before and had been refused, because her story seemed untrue. Hold Foil Hands. Mrs. Benedict was getting wrathy. A number of young women came in from dif ferent parts of the house to "hold" the waif of presidential name, but not to ask permanent possession. All pitied him, but none wanted him. Finally, one mentioned the Salvation Army home at Twenty-fourth and Spauldlng. Mrs. Benedict took the child In one hand, a small aatchel in the other, and went there. At 11:30, panting and perspiring, she re turned with the diminutive elephant still on her hands. The home is full. Evej-y door seems closed against the little chap whose coming into the world was not of bis own volition and whose departure from It seems an early possibility If he does not receive very tender care very soon. Mrs. Benedict hints of a determination to call at the office of the city Board of Health, deposit the child on Clerk Barker's desk and let the latter do the rest of the worry Ing.

The secretary of the Board of Health baa finished compiling his record of births In Omaha for the first six months of 1902, and the figures, compared with those of the first six months of the four preceding years, show a falling off In the birth rate. There were 100 lees births during the last six months than during the corresponding period of 1900. The record also shows a decided excess ef male ever female births during the first halves of 1898. 1899, 1900, 1901 and 1902. The following figures are taken from the records: 1902. WL Births Boys.

RIVER WILL STAY - IN BED It la Healthy and Growing, bat Will Not Jnmp from Its Cradle. 'There is no danger to be anticipated from the Missouri river at this point," said Weatherman Welsh yesterday, "and no dam age can result here from the present high water save to those who have encroached upon the river bed. As a matter of fact, the water at 7 o'clock this morning was six feet and a half below the danger line at the Union Pacific bridge, where our ob servations are taken. Moreover, it was one-tenth of a foot lower than on Wednes day morning at the same time. At Platts mouth it also lowered one-tenth of a foot In the day, while at Sioux City It fell three-tenths. That does not make a very dangerous showing for this part of the river, from Plattsmouth on up. Anyway, the height which the water has reached here in the last few days la nothing re markable. We have often had it dupli cated in years past and no sensation about It resulted on those occasions. There is no reason for . any big stir at this time. Our danger line is eighteen feet above low water mark of 1867, when the river reached the lowest point recorded. We are now eleven feet and a half above thla low mark, but every additional inch we get requires far more water than the inch before it." ANOTHER EXCURSION TO OKOBOJI.

Battenberg conters, 80-inch 1 squares, regular price, $2.87 IMMIGRANT BUREAU REMAINS Mr. Lomai Telia Whj Union Pacifio With drew from Organisation, FIXING UP ROADBED INTO UNION STATION t'nderaroand riplasr Belnsr Pat la to Drala Flow from Ola Arteslaa Well Into the Mis soar! River. General Passenger Agent E. L. Lomax of the Union Pacific, who has Just returned from the east, where he has been for sev eral weeks on official business, brings different reports from the immigration bureau from those which have been going the rounds since the withdrawal of the Union Pacific from that organliation. Mr. Lomax emphatically denies the persistent statements that the bureau baa collapsed or that It is in any imminent danger of doing so. "The bureau was comoosed of about thirty-live representative roads and its strength or durability was not menaced by the withdrawal of the Rock Island and the Union Pacific, notwithstanding they wars two of tho most Important members of tho bureau and their withdrawal subtracted material strength. It will continue to do business as It did in the past. "The Union Paclflc will make no special effort to get immigrant business. As a matter of fact we do not anticipate that the bureau will allow us to get much of this sort of traffic alnce we are out of the organization. Nor Is there any special anxiety on our part for this traffic under present conditions. We got out of the bureau because of the enormous expenses im posed by membership In the association and what we considered an unfair division of percentages, and I suppose the same causes actuated the Rock Island, but as to that I do not pretend to speak definitely. "The immigrant business is not what it was before and when the bureau was or ganized. After the thirty-five roads formed this association and the traffic was divided among them it made a very trivial part for each, too trifling, In fact, to warrant the payment of the heavy expense im posed upon the members. At least this was our view of the case. The Union Pa clflc by all odds led in the immigrant traffic before this bureau was established and, while we are 'not concerned over the busi ness now, there will always be a certain proportion of it that will have to come our way." Mr. Lomax says both the Oreat Northern and Northern Pacific are now members of this bureau. For some time after the or ganization of the association, in fact until recently, the Hill lines were not actually members, although they observed most of the conditions of the contract by some tacit agreement with the other lines and the effect was practically the same as if they had been members. Their actual identification, however, with the bureau gives it some additional strength, I.J these roads hold the key to the situation la, tha northwest. Mr. Lomax will leave in a day or two for the west, making a thorough and extended trip over the Union Paclflc aystem. No More Landslides. Conditions along the Union Paclflo em bankment between the Union station and the river bridge show some Improvement. No more serious landslides have occurred and aome progress is being made in drain ing the water from the filling, although no effort has yet been made at filling in the great depression which took out the three seta of tracks. Underground piping Is to be laid so as to connect with the main stream from the old artesian well and carry the water off into the river. Superficial water flumes havs already been placed in operation to drain the moisture from the embankment in other places and prevent further col lapse. The ground is still very soggy. While the bottoms near the tracks are pretty well under water and one spur track leading back toward the Thomson-Houston electric plant is submerged in places, ren dering it useless for the present, the river has not yet overflowed Its banks nor shown any indications of it. In fact, the Mis souri Is not so unusually high for ths amount of rain that has fallen. Its regis tration yesterday morning was 11.6. The water in the bottoms is. from the rains. Trains More Regular. Trains are running with more regularity yesterday than for several days. The Rock Island road la still unable to use'lts tracks west Into Omaha, but all serious obstacles will be out of the way, it is said, within a few days, and the road will resums normal operation of all its trains. From the east Rock Island tralna are arriving in good shape. The passenger traffic Just now is exceptionally heavy at both the Burlington and Union stations. Barllasrtoa to Butte. Ths Burlington has changed its north western route over the Northern Paclflc. Instead of running Its trains into Helena, as has been the custom heretofore, it sends them into Butte, with connections with ths trains from Helena. Butte being about three times the size of Helena the Burling ton figures that its business will be in creased to this extent by ths change. The change went into effect Sunday.

A waiter at the Country club has ths smallpox. As a consequence the delicious odor of the new mown hay and the sweet perfume of the summer girl have given wsy to the smoke of the sulphur handle and the scent of formaldehyde. Streaks of copperaa now mark the tennis court and the holes of the golf links sre Hired with germ killers. All festivities have been de clared oft until Saturday, and those mem bers who have rooms at the club for the summer are spending their time comparing arms. The trouble broke out Wednesday. J. M. Cudahy was to entertain a number of friends at dinner and a dance. The din ing rooms snd the ball room had passed from the hands of the florists, snd the chef was giving his final Instructions to bis assistants. The guests were beginning to arrive. A waiter was putting the fin ishing touches on an already beautifully decorated table. Suddenly and. It is be lieved, with malice aforethought, the waiter broke out with the smallpox, genuine old-fashioned smallpox. The news spread with aa much rapidity as the bumps on the man's face. There was a hasty exit of all guests who did not room at the place, and the dinner was con cluded at the Omaba club and the Millard hotel, the guests arriving at the latter place between 10 and 11 o'clock. Those who sre making the club their home Immediately called a physician, and until an early hour of the morning a row of men sat waiting their turn for the prick of the vaccine point. , Yesterday It Is reported from the club over the long distance 'phone that those who are still there have no fears. They are using sulphur candles for golf sticks and are going broke tipping the caddies. The offending waiter was bundled up by his fellow employes and hustled off to his home, where he Is doing well.

Removes Tesag Maa Who Had So Much Tronble, J. Ross Swlgert, who has been umpiring the games in Omaha during this series at home, was dismissed by President Sexton yesterday morning. Swlgert has been In the service of the Western league since July 4, when be began his career at Milwaukee in the Denver series there. Swlgert had heaps of trouble in Milwaukee, but he ended by being boss of the gamea, anyway, and ono day's work cost teams and players $135 there, aa much as all the salaries for the day. In Omaba Swlgert'a troubles continued, for the Denver team came here with him, and the westerners kept at him fiercely. Ths trouble which ended in the arrest of Manager Parke Wilson of the Denver team crowned Swlgert'a difficulties. Swlgert was appointed to take the place of Bobby Cox, who resigned to go with 'the Eaatern league as an umpire. Cox also had his troubles and was glad to seek a less heated base ball atmosphere. CASING A WATCH. How Ordinary :Wateh Works May Be Made More Efficient and How Finer Ones May Be Preserved. Ordinary watcfi 'works may generally be made effective timekeepers by careful and atrong caalng. The finest grades of watch works require very strong caalng to pro tect their delicate mechanism. The best of all cases for either class is the Jas. Boss Stiffened Gold Watch Case. This is a gold case stiffened In the center with a plate of hard metal to prevent It getting thin and weak and bending down on the works, aa a gold case does after a few years' wear. The outside plats of gold Is very heavy, much more than is ever worn from a solid gold case and much more than can be worn oft in a third of a century's hard service. In fact this outside piste of gold Is a quar ter of an Inch thick when the process of rolling down commences. At any rate, the Jas. Boss case is guaranteed twenty-five years, and none was ever known to wear out. The styles of the Jas. Boss case are very elegant the asms as the finest solid gold cases beautifully band carved, superbly flntshe very thin or very massive, as fancy may dictate snd in all sixes, for men and women's wear. The price is much lower than that asked for a solid gold case the reaaon la that the Jas. Boss case saves you paying for gold that Is never seen and never used. Jewelers everywhere keep a full stock of theee elegant casss they have sold more than 7,000,000 of them In the last 25 years. Ask your dealer to see them, or for ths book showing why a Jas. Boss Stiffened Gold Cass is better than a aoltd gold case, write to the Keystone Watch Case Com pany, Philadelphia. Mortality Statistics.
