HON. JAMES R. KENNEY,
The Man W ho Is Giving Away a For
tune in Books.
Hon. James K. Kcnney. ex-mayor, Is
giving wwiiy a fortune In book. He Is
putting them right Into tho homes of the
people absolutely without ccst or trouble
to them iave the email trouble of writing.
He had had prepared and printed the mod
remarkable work on personal magnetism,
hypnotism and how to succeed In life, that
has ever been written. It la brimful of
Intensely Interesting and practical Informa
tion. It Is Just what the young man needs
who Is starting In life to give him vim.
push and energy; to make him magnetic,
to enah e him to overcome obstacles and
surmount evpry difficulty to hie success.
It Is Just what the middle-aged man needs
to enable him to win and hold friends, to
become a leader In his community, to In
fluence and sway the minds of his business
associates and make hla mark In life. It
la Just what every father and every mother
needs to eradicate bad tempers and evil In
clinations In children, to strengthen their
morul faculties, banish diseases' and make
them grow to be men and women, such as
Ood Intended they should be.
It Is Just what every minister of the
gospel needs to help him hold the waver
ing steadfast In their faith, to help him
turn ths minds, of the wicked towarn
moraltv. honesty and right doing. It Is
lust what every lawyer needs to help him
Influence Juries, control witnesses and to
deliver hla argument In that forceful, con
vincing manner which carries conviction
with every word. It Is Just what you
need, no matter who you are or what you
do ,to enable you to get out of life the suc
cess, pleasure and happiness which the
Creator Intended should be yours. If you
are not successful, If you are not making
money. It Is because you do not know
that secret power that rules the thoughts
and minds of men. If you are already
successful you ran become more success
ful if you will but master the hidden forces
(round you. Iearn to use the secret
magnetic power with which nature has en
dowed you.
Kx-Mayor Kenney's book proves every
ona la born with this mighty, subtle power,
that any one can easily develop It at home
without, the knowledge of his Intimate
friends or asosclates, and Influence people
secretly to carry out his thoughts and
Id en a. It certainly is a wonderful force.
capable of Infinite good.
"Hypnotism truly reveals the secret of
life and the mysteries of nature," writes J.
If. 8chiielller, H12 Avon street, I.a Crosse,
Wis. "My own father could not have con
vinced me of Its wonderful power. If I had
not actually tested It for myself. I con
elder a knowledge of It Invaluable to those
who wish to get the most out of life; to
those who wish to achieve success and live
up to the vfull measure of their poaslUlt
ties."
J. R. Ganklns, Newport News. Va.
writes: "I must admit that I doubted very
much that hypnotism could be practically
taught. In four days after receiving your
work, however, you demonstrated to my
xtntlre satisfaction that I was never fur
ther from the truth In my life. I have
met with wonderful success. Your free
book Is the finest thing of the kind I have
ever seen."
A. C. Plyens of Ithaca, N. Y.. writes:
If any fault could be found with your In
struction It would ba that you give too
much, therby giving too many people the
opportunity to acquire great secrets that
have been guarded and known only by
very few for centuries secrets that confer
upon the possessor a wonderful power over
their less Informed friends."
Rev. John I.ewelllng of Hrownvllle, Neb.,
writes: "You are engaged In a glorious
work. Hypnotism sets us free from pois
onous drugs. I have Just cured a case of
throat and lung trouble which the doctors
had pronounced Incurable, I am applying
your teachings every day. I congratulate
you upon your work for suffering human
ity." Kx-Mayor Kenney ordered printed three
months ago W.ouo copies of hla new book for
free dlstrlbutlun. The first copies are Just
now coming off the press. They are ele
gantly llustrated with the finest engrav
ings and will prove a valuable addition to
any library. If you would know all about
hypnotism, the wonder science of the age,
personal magnetism, thought force, mag
netic) healing and kindred sciences, write
for a free copy of this remarkable book at
nee. It will be sent to your sddrees
postage prepaid. You will be delighted,
mystified and benefited more than words
can tell. Nothing like It has ever before
been printed. Kx-Mayor Kenney la giv
ing them away for the benefit of the pub
lic. He believes by doing so he Is ac
complishing more good than by donating
bis money to hospltuls, public libraries
or anything of this nature. He gives you
a book worth more to a young man than
g college education. He gives it to you
for your own pernotial use, to keep In your
library or to carry with you. On account
of the great expense in preparing and
printing this book only those are requested
to write who sre especially Interested in
bettering themselves In life and who ac
tually wish to make practical use of the
Information given In the book.
If you wunt a free copy write at once to

AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA
Hifh School Plan, May Take More Sab-
etant at Form Tonight
BOARD THINKS IT SIGHTS THE FUNDS
Probably Will Instruct the Secretary
to Aterlle for Bids for the Con
slrtirtlon of the evr llnlld
Ina's I'nlinilnllnn.
On Monday night the Hoard of Education
will bold meeting and It Is understood
that the secretary will be Instructed to
advertise for bids for the construction of
the foundation of the proposed high school
building to be erected on the Hoctor prop
erty at. Twenty-third and K streets. As
the board sees money In sight now from
liquor licenses and other sources some
of the memnerg favor the commencement of
Ibe building as soon as possible. It Is as
serted that by the time the foundations sre
well under way, money for the balance
of the structure can be provided. It Is fig
ured that In order to complete the build
ing It will be ntccssary to ask the people
to vote bonds In the sum of $lo0.oni). This
proposition, so It was stated yesterday,
will be submitted to the people at the
coming election.
One of the members of the board In
speaking of this matter said last night
that within a year sixteen new school
rooms had been added to the bnlldlngs now
In use and that six rented rooms were
now being occupied and paid for. This
shows an Increase In the enrollment beyond
the exnectatlons of the board when the ap
propriations were made last year.
In the matter of bonds 't Is asserted that
bonds of district No. 3 can be sold for
about 4 per cent, as the district Is not
bonded and has property valued at about
$400,000. It Is the Intention, in case tbe
bond proposition carries, to make the Issue
one of twenty years If possible In order to
secure as low a rate of Interest as pos
sible. At any rate bids for the founda
tion will be advertleed for on Monday
night and then the question of bonds will
be taken up after this matter Is dis
posed of.
Accepts Appraisers' Report.
The officials of tho Burlington road have
notified the city officials that the report of
the appraisers on the matter of vacating
a portion of Thirty-sixth street would be
accepted and that the payment of the $1,041
damages reported would be paid at once.
It appears that tho report of the apprais
ers was not exploit enough In that It did
not carry out the Idea of the engineers In
designating the lines to be followed. The
appraisers were consulted yesterday and
agreed to file a supplemental report show
ing exactly what was contained In the first
report, but making their statements more
explicit. This report will be filed with the
council so that it may be read at thi meet
ing to be held Monday night. As the mem
bers of the council are willing to consider
this supplemental report It Is thought that
the vacation ordinance soen will be under
way. The city officials Insist that the
amount of damages be paid Into the treas
ury before the ordinance is passed and this
has been agreed upon by all parties con
cerned. This Is the only case where the
city has derived any financial benefit from
the vacating of either streets or alleys.
City Clerk Makes Statement.
City Clerk Shrlgley has prepared a state
ment showing the condition of the city funds
at the close of business Saturday night.

paid, licenses and one-half of the county

this date there has been drawn the sum of
$127,771. This leaves a balance of $17,372.
The fire ' fund Is completely exhausted,
while there Is only $3.88 in the general
fund. The balances In the other funds fol
low: Salary, $2,585; public light, $607:
Judgment, $9; water, $491; street repair, 12.

FOR THE PRESS CLUB BENEFIT
Program la Sow Mad I n and Shows
Promising List of Attrac
tions. A striking program has been secured for
the entertainment of the Trl-Clty Tress
club, to be given at Boyd's theater on the
afternoon of Monday, February 9.- The en
tertainment committee has now completed
the card, which will begin with the two
strongest numbers from the Orpheum vaude
ville bill for that current week. First
comes Mignonette Koklln, a famous
danseuse. The next act will be by the
Milanl trio, composed of the widely known
Milanese minstrels.
But the last acf of the vaudeville por
tion of tho performance Is the one from
which most Is expected. It is the mono
logue by Carl Reiter, manager of the Or
pheum theater here. This will be Mr.
Retter's first appearance on a stage in this
distinct role, but he has so often demon
strated his ability in the story telling di
rection that he has been urged many times
to carry his talents behind the footlights.
Fod a closing scene the entertainment
committee has secured one full act from
"Shore Acres." William B. Gross, general
manager of the James A. Heme attrac
tions, was In Omaha Saturday and arranged
with the committee for the production of
the first act. This was chosen because
of the fact that It introduced a large num
ber of characters, sixteen In all, and be
cause It contains some of the cleverest
touches In the play. It is tbe net located
in the barnyard of "Shore Acres" farm
during haying time.
Proceeds of the performance will be used
to entertain the National Editorial associa
tion, and Judging from present progress
with the sale of tickets, the visiting news
paper scribes will be shown the time of
their lives.
TANNERY SEEMS ASSURED
Much-Dlsraaaed Project Takes IHore
Material Form, with P. E. Her
Poshing; It.
A much discussed project seems about
to materialize and Omaha has very good
prospects of a large tannery opening In the
old Boyd packing house on the river bot
toms some time during 1903, perhaps by
the middle of the year. The promoter Is
J. H Thaw, now of Omaha, hut formerly
of Atlanta, Ga., and It is understood that
the machinery for the plant will come from
that place, or at least part of It will, and
that also a part of the financial backing
will come from there. The Omahan most
heavily Interested Is P. E. Her, the dis
tiller, whose efforts In behalf of tbe enter
prise have been mentioned already several
times in Tbe Bee.
A. L. Ilolcomb of the tlanta tannery
has been in Omaha recently, when the first
steps in the formation of a company were
taken, but has returned to Atlanta, to look
after the project at- that end of the line.
The estimated investment Is $150,000.

hostler in Stuben's livery stable. Fifteenth

CHICAGO, Jan. 81. The distribution of
bituminous coal at cost price by the city
was Inaugurated today.
Hundreds of persons, ftalnly women, gath
ered at the city collector's office and at the
various points of distribution throughout
tbe city and It was demonstrated early In
the day that 150 tons a day would prove
Inadequate to meet the demand.
A hurried consultation resulted In the re
striction of the amount sold to each person
to one-half ton. Instead of one ton, as origi
nally planned.
It Is estimated that 1,200 tons will be re
quired to meet the demands of the first day's
applicants.
A schedule of prices, varying according
to the cost of delivery to tho distributing
points, was fixed, ranging from $2.20 to
$2.35 per half ton.
"It will be Impossible to fully meet the
demand," said Commissioner of Public
Works Blockl, who is in charge tf the
municipal coal yards, "but we hope to
be able to secure a large enough dally
supply to prevent suffering from absolute
want of coal. We shall have at least 200
tons a day to sell and doubtless could get
an adequate supply If the railroads could
deliver it to us."
Members of the Bogle-Indiana Coal com
bine, as Individuals, and nine corporations
indicted with them, will be placed on trial
here on February 23. This arrangement
was entered into today by attorneys for
the coal men and State's Attorney Peneen.

FATHER MARQUETTE LECTURE
Life nnd Times of the Famous Mis
sionary the Subject of a Dis
course by Bishop O'Oormau.
Right Rev. Thomas O'Gorman, D. D.,
bishop of the diocese of Sioux Falls, S. D.,
will deliver a lecture before the Omah
council. Knights of Columbus, and their
guests, at Boyd's opera house on the even
ing of February 13. Invitations to the
lecture are now being issued.
The subject chosen by BlBhop O'Gorman
Is "Father Marquette," the famous pio
neer missionary of the great lakes and the
upper Mississippi. In the strenuous com
mercialism, of our day a subject which
carries the listener backward two and a
quarter centuries, when the pioneers of the
new world penetrated the trackless wilder
ness and blazed the path of civilization
and nationhood, promises Intellectual pleas
ure, recreation and instruction. The west
Is riot fas removed from pioneer days, and
many now living have experienced the
hardships and endured the privations In
cident to the development of a new country.
But western pioneer days are as of yeBter-
Ltiay, are Incidents of the onrush of settle
ment, wnne tnose or Father Marquette
were over a century In advance of white
civilization and settlement. His zeal and
devotion, his courage and" his achieve
ments cbmbinp to make his one of the
grand characters In American history. It
Is a singular Incident of his career that
. the eUe of tne westernmost post estab
lished by him, In what is now the state
of Illinois, Kankaskln has been obliter
ated by the shifting channels of the Mis
sissippi, while on the site of his hut on
Lake Michigan has grown up the second
largest city In North America. A picture
of Father Marquette adorned one of the
series of special postage stamps Issued by
the government to commemorate the
TransVnlesisslppI exposition, and a heroic
statue of the missionary has been placed
by the state of Wisconsin, In Statuary hall
in the national capltol. Both tributes to
the memory of the famous pioneer called
forth fanatic protests at the time, but no
attention was paid to them.
Bishop O'Gorman Is a stranger to most
of the people of Omaha, but not a stranger
to the northwest. Boston Is his birth
place. He Is on the last quarter of his
sixtieth year. He was ordained a priest
at St. Paul, Minn., November 5, 18t5, and
the greater number of his years Blnce then
have ben spent In the diocese of St. Paul.
During Archbishop Keane's administration
of the Catholic university at Washington,
Father O'Gorman was one of the professors,
and his services were rewarded with pro
motion to a bishopric. He was conse
crated by Cardinal 'Gibbons In Washington
April 19, 1806, and shortly after took
charge of tho diocese of Sioux Falls, suc
ceeding the late Bishop Marty.
During his stay in Omaha Bishop O'Gor
man will be the guest of Bishop Scannell.
On the evening of the 12th the visiting
bishop will be tendered a reception and
dinner at the ller Grand by the knights and
the local clergy. The committee of ar
rangements consists of Edward W. Sltn
eral, William Hayden. Martin Langdon,
Thomas J. Fitzmorris, John E. O'Hern and
Thomas F. Swift.

IRR1TATINQ TROUBLE QUICKLY
OVERCOHE.
If Yon Only Find Out the Illght
Course to Pursue.
Many physicians who advertise to cure
piles, without the aid of the knife, simply
use Pyramid Pile Cure remedies. They do
so because they know It Is tbe best medi
cine for obtaining a proper combination of
the most scientific Ingredients for tbe curs
of piles.
Pyramid Pile Cure is not in sn experi
mental stage, but is an established remedy
and la recognized and used by tbe beat phy
sicians in tbe country. Being in suppository
form, it reaches the trouble at a nee and tbe
healing process Is quick and effective; Im
mediate results ars obtained, and before the
patient' realizes tbe fact he has recovered
from the pain, suffering and Irritation
which this trouble causes.
Children who suffer from this painful
trouble obtain relief at once. It if well
with a very young child to reduce tbe size
of the suppository before using. However,
if children are afflicted with piles, tbey
should be treated without delay or the
trouble may become chronic. Hundreds of
little ones have been cured with Pyramid
Pile Cure.
The prevention of piles la better than tbs
cure and they can be urevenled it only
people would look to the regularity of tbe
bowels and not become constipated. Con
stiputlon and Its attendant ills csn bs
avoided by the use of Pyramid Pills. The
proprietors of the Pyramid Pile Curs sav
that It was necessary to use with the ma
Jorlty of their patients a mild non-irritating
laxative, and the Pyramid Pills for constl
patlon were the result of much careful
thought and patient Investigation. Pyramid
Pile Cure and Pyramid Pills are sold by
druggists everywhere for fifty and twenty
five cents per packsge.
