HOBSON WANTS BIGGER NAVY
Woild Have United States Equal All the
World Besides at Eea.
HOW TO KEEP INDUSTRIAL SUPREMACY

Forty millions of dollars to be spent this
year for new warships. $30,000,000 next year,
with an increase of $10,000,000 earh year
until the navy of the United Statea shall be
equal to the combined navies of the world,
lumi up the plea of Hlchard Pearson Hob
ioo, late lieutenant and naval constructor
of the United Btatea navy, at Kountte
Memorial church lait night.
Mr. Hohsoa appeared under the auspices
of the lecture bureau of the Young Men'a
Christian assoclstlon. He waa Introduced
by J. M. Olllan, who briefly referred to hla
exploit at Santiago and In China. In
opening he said that America Is entering
upon a new era of history and must become
a world power, and for that reason It Is
the duty of alt American citizens to pay
more attention to the general political and
social conditions of the people of other
natlona. He compared the ability of the
average American with the average Euro
peaa and said that It Is demonstrated that
the producing power of America Is approx
imately one-tblrd of that of the entire
human race, and that It Is Increasing by
Immigration and natural Increase almost
double that of the average of all the other
countries, so that within a comparatively
few years the United States will be able
to produce material equal to the total pro
duction of the world.
Why the Nary Is Heeded.
Referring to sociological conditions, he
said the citizen of the United Btatea Is the
only civilian who Is not burdened with the
evils and expense of military government
and strong central power; that the history
of the development of the natlona of Eu
rope shows that each baa come up through
military force that race after race has been
driven across the continent, to disappear
before a more warlike power, while In the
United Statea the development has been
entirely along industrial lines, and that for
this reason the United Btatea will stand aa
the champion of the new era In history
which la to place militarism In the back
ground and make industrial force the dom
inant force In the development of natlona.
Avery other country has conquered or been
conquered, and the people of those coun
tries stand today either fearing the ad
vance of a hostile army or dreaming of a
conquest to avenge former wrongs, while
the American citizen does not look forward
to a time when this country shall Invade
the territories of Its neighbors, snd cer.
talnly does not fear the march of foemen.
The measure of the devotion of the Amer
ican to principle can be seen from the his
tory of the civil war, where Americana,
Inspired by convictions of right on either
side, foustat battles with greater fatalities
than any war of previous times, and in
which war the're were regiments which lost
In one engagement more than 60 per cent of
their members, while the celebrated charge
at Balaklava coBt the famous Light Brigade
only about 38 per cent.
Salvation for Oar Industries.
He dwelt upon the statement that the
only way In which the industrial force can
overcome the military force Is through a
strong navy, which, he said,' will not bear
upon the people, aa the central government
Is so remote from the people that no one
will feel any burden through the raising of
funds, and the fact that the force is upon
the ssss will make any Increase in the mil
itary spirit In this country difficult It not
Impossible through that source; that auch
a navy Is absolutely necessary for the pur
pose of carrying out the distinctive Ideaa
of the American people, as the other na
tions of the world will respect the ideas of
America In proportion to the size of the
navy which It has to enforce them.
Mr. Hobson referred to the action of the
United Statea in Japan and in China in
1860 and before, when it returned to the
nations a sum of money paid aa indemnity,
while the other nations, which received like
Indemnities, kept the funds, aqd while
Germany at the walls of Paris starved the
city Into subjection, from his prison win
dow at Santiago be had seen 18,000 old
men, women snd children march from the
gates to be fed upon the rations of the
beleaguering army; that while other na
tions bad laid Indemnity upon conquered
people, the United Statea had paid Spain
120,000,000 and had transported its troops
home from the land It had lost.
At the conclusion of the address the
audience, which occupledthe greater part
of the church, took part In an informal
reception which waa tendered the speaker.

One grain of the active principle In
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest 3.000
grains of meat, eggs or other wholesome
food, and this claim has been proven by
actual experiment, which anyone can per
form for himself In the following manner:
Cut hard boiled eggs Into very small pieces,
as It would be If masticated, place the egg
and two or three of the tablets In a bottle
or Jar containing warm water heated to 9S
degrees (the temperature of the body), and
keep It at thla temperature for three and
one-half hours, at the end of which time
the egg will be as completely digested as It
would have been In the healthy stomach
of a hungry boy.
The point of this experiment Is that what
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will do to the
egg In the bottle It will do to the egg or
meat In the stomach, and nothing else will
rest and Invigorate the stomach so safely
and effectually. Even a little child can
take Stuart's Tablets with safety and bene
fit If its digestion Is weak, and the thou
sands of curea accomplished by their regu
lar dally use are easily explained when It
la understood that they are composed of
vegetable essences, aseptic pepsin, diastase
and Golden Seal, which mingles with the
food and digests It thoroughly, giving the
overworked stomach a chance to recuperate.
Dieting never cures dyspepsia, neither do
pills and cathartic medicines, which simply
irritate and inflame the Intestines.
When enough food Is eaten and promptly
digested there will be no constipation, nor.
In fact, will there be disease of any kind,
because good digestion means good health
In every organ.

Joining her apartment was that of Mra.
Sarah Davis. Friday evening Mrs. Davis
discovered that her room had been broken
Into and a Boston store bank containing
$65, stolen from her trunk. The next
morning Mrs. Scott changed her residence
and found lodging at 2617 North Twenty
sixth street. Dally she returned to her
former residence. Yeaterday while De
tectives Druramy and Mitchell were search
ing tor her she returned again and attacked
Mrs. Davis. During the encounter, which
grew out of Mra. Davla suspecting Mrs.
Scott of the theft, Mrs. Davis accidentally
got the first finger of her right hand Into
Mrs. Scott's mouth. The member was
nearly bitten off before assistance arrived.
Mrs. Scott was later arrested and taken to
the station, while Mrs. Davis sought the
services of Assistant Surgeon Hahn, who
dressed the chewed linger.
STORY' OF OLD INDIAN'S LOVE
How lie Was Married on His Death
Bed to Girl of His
Choice.
Henry Blackbird, accompanied by Fred
Cayou, an Interpreter, Is In the city to con
sult with the United States attorney re
garding the disposition of thje property of
John C. Fremont, one of the former mem
bers of the Omaha council and one of the
last men to bear the title of chief. . Fre
mont died a year ago thla month and left a
will, which Blackbird, who Is a half-brother
of the deceaaed, has determined to have set
aside.
According to the story told by Blackbird,
Fremont, who waa a very old man, became
enamored with Memushone, a maiden of his
race, but waa compelled by reason of the
opposition of his children to refrain from
marrying her. Against the tradition of the
tribe, Memushone and Fremont lived to
gether for some time, and when he came to
die he promised to leave her lntereat In
eighty acres of land and an Income of $50
per month from bis estate as long as she
should live on the home place and care for
his minor children.
While Fremont was dying a white preacher
waa secured from a neighboring town and
at the request of the Indian woman per
formed a ceremony of marriage between the
unconscious Indian and the woman, and this
ceremony tb,e heirs of Fremont desire to
have aet aside, claiming that It la of no
effect, as the bridegroom was unable to
understand word or to express his assent.
He died a short time after the ceremony.
according to Blackbird's stor7, and later a
will waa produced which gave hla wife a
greater interest In the property than he
had expressed as his intention.
The widow has now . married another
member of the tribe Cbarlea McCawley
and the heirs desire to have the will con
strued according to the verbal expressions
of the deceased. The case will be tried In
Tburaton county in caae the United States
district attorney decides that the heirs
should be permitted to go Into court.

ings. It Is his allegation that he used to
collect laundry and have the work done by
them for a per cent, that they finally discon
tinued thla and also barred him from hav
ing his work done' at South Omaha, Council
Bluffs or Lincoln; that he then went to
Fremont, and made an arrangement with
the Hyatt-Townsend firm there, but that
shortly after the laundrymen in Omaha
and South Omaha called Hyatt to Omaha
and told htm If he continued to do the
Boschert work they would install a vigor
ous rival at Fremont and retaliate; that
thereupon tne Fremont firm inclined to
serve bim also, and that now tbe business
which wax his for years Is ruined, and he
Is damaged In consequence.
MISCALLED "HAIR TONICS."
Most Hair Preparations Are Merely
Scalp Irrltsyits, of No Value.
Most hair preparations are merely scalp
Irritants, miscalled hair tonics. When hair
Is brittle, lusterless and beglna to fall out,
the 'dandruff germ- Is getting in its deadly
work at the root, aapplng the vitality.
Since science discovered that dandruff is a
germ disease there has been only one
preparation put on the market that will
actually destroy the dandruff germ, and
that is Newbro's Herplclde. It allays itch

falling hair stops, and hair growa luxu

gregational church last evening to hear
Mrs. William Spencer Crosby interpret the
language of Wagner the opera taken up
being "Walkure," the eecond and most
tragic of the cycle, "The Ring of the Nelb
lung." Mrs. Ctroaby performed the different
themes and motifs of the opera, speaking
the declamatory verse with the music. She
dwelt on the beautiful spring song and the
love music of Slgmund and Slgllnda and
their contrast with the harsh and sinister
chords of the pursuit and storm music
which they follow. Mrs. Crosby repeatedly
called attention to the classic perfection of
form displayed In the constantly recurring
therc.es and to the masterly orchestration
of Wagner.

Bridget O'Flannlarnn Shoota John
. Snod grass.
In consequence of an adverse verdict by
a Jury of twelve men, faithful and true, the
plaintiff, Bridget. O'Flannlgan, takes a
deadly aim at the defendant, John Snod-
graas, and but for certain conditions which
prevailed would have taken his life.
Bridget had aued John for $10,000 damages
for breach of promise. The caae was tried
and the evidence, with the instructions of
the Judge, were given to the Jury, and the
Jury bad Just rendered lta decision, in favor
of the defendant, when Bridget, realizing
lost cause, deliberately took her revolver
from the folds of her dress, where during
tbe trial ahe had concealed It, and fired
point blank at the defendant. Just aa he
had finished shaking hands with his attor
ney who had so ably defended him. Attor
ney Fitch appeared for the plaintiff and
Attorney Bevtns for the defendant. Judge
Rapp presided. There waa an audience of
over 604 people present to hear the testi
mony of wltnoases and arguments of the
attorneys. After the shooting took place
excitement ran high. Many were surprised
at the verdict rendered, for it was evident
from the testimony that tbe girl had good
grounds upon which to base her claim for
damages. Much sympathy was excited in
her behalf from the beginning and this will
account for her not being arrested after
the shooting occurred. Mr. Snodgrasa him
self even declared that he would not prose
cute the girl for an attempt upon his life.
Bridget halls from the state of Washing
ton and has evidently been well trained in
the uae of a gun. Both plaintiff and de
fendant are students of the Omaha Com
mercial college, and both attorneys, as well
as the Judge, are students of the Omaha
School of Law. The trial took place last
Saturday night at the rooms of the Omaha
Commercial college and it contained tho
greatest amount of reality for a mock trial
it haa ever been our pleasure to attend. All
parties participating were suitably cos
tumed and the attorneys employed made a
desperate fight for the Justice of their
cause. The evening was one never to be
forgotten by those who were fortunate
enough to be present.
The college orchestra played a funeral
dirge, while the limp form of young Snod
grasa waa being revived by Dr. KlII-em-qulck.

a prlaoner In tbe city Jail, beld tbe officers
at bay with a large five-foot piece of
pointed board, while he threw mlislles'
promiscuously around the corridor, tore the
grating from the aewer opening near his
cage, ripped the closet in his cell from its
fsstenlngs and broke a pair of handcuffs
with which he bad been shackled.
During the fore part of . the morning
Burke, who had been given ten days yes
terday for vagrancy, worked himself into a
frenzy of anger because of some Imaginary
grievance which he bald against the police.
He raved like a madman, cried and wept
at intervals and howled and cursed. - The
fit of madness grew worse when Jailer Kirk
and several other officers entered Burke's
cell for the purpose of putting the hand
cuffs on him. He fought like a madman.
During tbe struggle he sunk his teeth doep
Into the fleshy part of Jailer Kirk's right
hand, sent two of tbe other officers spinning
like tops across his cage and attacked tbe
bars w(th his cuffs.
Brraka His Handcuffs.
Every effort waa made to quiet the pris
oner, who continued working upon his cuffs
until he bad broken tbe steel fetters. Then
he proceeded to tear up everything In bis
cell. Including the hickory bunk. Arming
hlmtielf with a five-foot piece of sharp
pointed board he laid In wait for the first
person who chanced to pass by his csge.
It 'proved to be Jailer Kirk. Unthoughtful
of any danger the Jailer waa first warned
of his perilous position when Burke, with a
cry of rage, made a rush for him with the
sharp atlck. Luckily the Jailer dodged In
time to prevent being wounded.
Captain Mostyn ordered that Burke be
subdued by having the Jail hose turned oa
bim. The small stream only served to In
tensify the anger of the prisoner. The cap
tain then sent for a squad of firemen and
several lengths of hose. An outside window
was raised and the cell deluged with chilling
water. Secreting himself behind the plata
upon the cell door Burke defied the firemen
to reach him. A aide window was quickly
broken out and the full force of the stream
played through the bars of Burke's cell.
Tbe prisoner waa then thrown into one
corner of the rage. GraHplng for support
the cuff from hia wrist accidentally dan
gled through tbe bars and was caught by
the Jailer, who beld bim until the door of
the cell was opened and Burke could be
overpowered.
Breaks Ont Again.
Burke again displayed his mesnness dur
ing the afternoon, when he slipped his
bands from the muffs which hsd been placd
upon his wrists snd threatened tbe offi
cers who chanced to pass by his cell.
Quickly tearing the top from tbe toilet In
his cell, be waved the heavy IroJ weapon
