1(9 TITE O MA IT A DAILT HEKi TIIUIiSDAT, AmiL 23, 1903. NEBRASKA PONIES FOR POLO West Polet Military A"I'F Be Beyplleel from Thla (Male. The quartermaster's department of the Department of the Missouri Is expecting to receive shipment of ten pontes from Crawford, Neb., which are destlnod for tho military academy at Went Point, where they are to be uned as polo ponies. Id years gone by the academy team has aevor been able to make a strong showing In polo, despite the tact that some of th.i cleverest players In the country wera on VJie team. This has been due to the lack of good polo ponies. So the department secured these ten potnes mt a cost of $104 each, where they ordinarily pay from $30 to $40. To secure these ponies the government turned to Nebraska, where polo Is an un known game, but preferring to secure mounts that were strong, quick and brave rather than experienced. The ten secured promise to prove all that la desired and within six months will be thoroughly broken In to play polo with the best of tho astern-bred and trained ponies. TELEPHONE (STRIKE SITIATIO. ''Recognition of the lalon." Tn this connection the press quotes the "business agent" of the Linemena' union a saying, "Thla is simply a fight for the recognition of the union." Thla expression la meanlnglosa or misleading. What the union demands Is "control by the union" and due regard for the facts should require It to be so stated. It Is "control by" not "recognition of the union which the company refuaea and cannot aubmlt to. . The union "demands full - and formal recognition of their organization," meaning that the company must sign a contract binding no one but Itself, that the union shall select the company's employes, de cide upon their ability, the number to be employed and how they shall work, gra ciously saying that when the union cannot furnish enough men, "the company shall be allowed to hire non-union men," pro viding the union has first said that the men were acceptable to it, and had made application to the order for membership. This Is plainly a demand for control, not for "recognition." The Nebraska Telephone company has no differences with Its present or former em ployes. Is engaged In no "fight" with any organization, simply contending for the right to control its own business and that Its employes shall be responsible to It, for the performance of their duties, instead of being selocted, directed and controlled by parties not Interested. All our former employes will be re-employed should they apply for work, on terms which may be mutually satisfactory and all agreements made with them fully and fairly carried out by the company.

Arnold Whltcroft came very near crossing the river yesterday morning by the asphyx iation route at Mondamln lodging house, 121 North Fifteenth street. Whltcroft is from Heber. Kan.' He retired about 12:30 Tues day night, and in turning out the gas turned It on again. Yesterday morning when Mrs. Gerry, the landlady, tried hla door she found it locked- and an odor of gas emitting from the room. The door was broken open and Whltcroft was found lying on the bed unconectous, but still breathing. I)rs. Jungbluth and Vance were Imme diately notified and Whltcroft was resus citated with considerable difficulty ana was given a prolonged promenade to work of! the effects of the gas. He Is all right now. Is only one of many distressing symp toms which point to the presence of womanly diseases. If women thoroughly understood the relation of the local wom anly health to the general health, they wouia understand ais backache, headache, nervousness, sideache, dizziness, faintness and similar feminine ail ments, cannot be cured until the womanly health is established.

Bender was arraigned before Judge Berks yesterday, charged with assault and menacing threats upon Sergeant Hud son and Officer Dunn on the evening of April 5. The odlcers had been ' aent to Bender's house to investigate aome mis understanding relative to a horse and buggy and Bender declined to recognize their right to arrest him without a war rant and got possession of a gun to defend himself.' In attempting to get the gun away from him Sergeant Hudson had his thumb broken. A general mix-up resulted, which wss participated In by Bender, his wife and his mother.-ln-law, but the officers Sqally came oft victorious and Bender was lodged in jail. The case was brought to trial yesterday morning and Bander and his tnother-lQ-law testified that they thought the officers were highway robbers, hence tht resistance to arrest. Judge Berka thought the stats had not made out a case against Bender snd discharged him. Love thy neighbor and love the most delicious, sparkling champagne oa sale, Cook's Imperial Extra Dry.
