It Is not a new philosophy he teaches in

"A Candle of Understanding," by Eliza

and New York, beginning Just after the
war, when the hero and heroine are chil

cloak, to spend a night In the victor's tent;
In return the city is to be succored and
spared from the sack that is certain If re
fusal meets the request. With his blood
leaping under tho Impulse of outraged hon
or and self-respect, the husband refuses to
make the sacrifice, preferring to Jeopar
disenay, to doom all the women In the
city, and the men and children, too, to a
common fate rather than to consent that
his beloved wife should pay such a price as
the city's ransom. The wife, listening to
the pleadings of the citizens, to whom the
proposal has been made known, decides to
offer herself that the suffering around her
may oeaae and worse may be averted, and
does so. It matters not that she finds In
the person of the apparently bestial com
mander of the besieging army a man of
personal refinement, who had for years
unknown to her, loved her with a devotion
rare even In story; who treated her with

times In almost arnual succession. "The

"Cora Crlslwell came to her death from
a gunshot wound Inflicted by the hand of
James Jardine Reed."
The foregoing waa the verdict of the
coroner's jury rendered yesterday after
noon, after the evidence had been given In
the Crisiwell murder case. There was
nothing new developed In the testimony
given at the Inquest. Only seven witnesses
were examined, and they simply related
how the woman came to her death, the
finding of the body and other minor de
tails. ' Reed, the murderer, was present at
the Inquest, and at his own request was
permitted to view the body. After looking
at it a moment he turned away, and ex
pressed the widh that he too would soon
be dead.
The undertaking rooms of Brailey & Dor
ran ce were crowded, and some difficulty
was experienced in keeping the crowd un
der control. A large crowd of people stood
in the street during the progress of the
Inquest.
A telegram was sent Monday to the
mother of the murdered woman, who lives
In Montana, asking for orders as to the
disposition of the body. Coroner Brailey
received a reply yesterday asking that the
body be buried in Omaha, and the money
which the woman had at the time of her
death be used, to defray the expense. In
case of a surplus it was asked that the
balance be forwarded to the mother. The
woman left about 1150 in cash and a con
siderable quantity of personal effects.
Much opposition Is being developed to the
passage of the ordinance submitted by the
Union Pacific and the Union Stock Yards
companies, in relation to the construction
of a subway under N street to the stock
yards. The plans submitted to the council
were drawn on February 20, 18!9l These
plans were declared Impracticable at the
time by W. 8. King, chief .engineer of the
Union Stock Tarda company. Yesterday
forenoon Councilman W. P. Adkins called
at tha city clerk's office and attached his
name to the ordinance as its introducer.
One of the objections raised Is that under
this ordinance the city would be compelled
to maintain electric lights and police pro
tection in the subway. Another provision
requires the city to keep the subway clean
and that all storm water must be kept out.
The blue print on file shows that the
subway will have an eastern terminus at
or near the Delmonlco hotel, Twenty
seventh and N streets, and that there will
be twenty-five steps down. At the western
end twenty-two steps will lead up to the
pavement at the stock yards boulevard.
An eight foot walk for pedestrians Is
provided and an eighteen foot driveway.
The driveway will terminate at the Union
Pacific depot. There is a 10 per cent grade
on this incline from the depot to the base
of the tunnel.
Mayor Koutsky said last night that If
the council passed the ordinance as It now
Is he will veto it. Adkins, who signed the
ordinance said last night that the ordinance
would have to be amended considerably be
fore he would vote for It on third reading.
Welsh, Smith and Broderlck made the
same remark. Some of the councllmen say
that the subway proposition is merely made
to stave off the building of a viaduct for
another year or two. A steel bridge across
the tracks will cost a great deal more than
a subway. Should the Union Paclflo and
the Stock Yards company build a via
duct, these companies would be required
to keep the same in repair and open all the
year.
Strike Not Probable.
Up to last night no news had been re
ceived from Chicago regarding the decision
of the beef butchers. E. A. Cudahy Is
still at home sick. Through a representa
tive he stated to a reporter for, The Bee
last night that he had not heard from
Chicago. He does not expect any trouble
with the beef butchers employed by hU
company. R. C. Howe returned from Chi
cago yesterday. Ho said last night that
there was absolutely no news. The fact
that Mr. Howe leaves for the west tlili
afternoon Is an indication that there Is
nothing serious In the meetings of the
amalgamated meat cutters. As for the
members of the union here, they decline
to state what the result of the meeting on
Monday night was. President Donnelly
enjoined secrecy and so far the tally of
the vote Is known only to members of the
order and to the president and his chief
lieutenants. From what can be learnel
It Is inferred that a compromise will be
effected and that there will be no strike.
Pastor Head Reappointed.
Rev. M. A. Head has returned from tha
Methodist conference held at . Fremont.
Rev. Head has been placed in charge of
the First Methodist church for another
year. This request was granted by Bishop
Andrews on account of the letters sent by
members of the church and congregation.
Rev. Head is well liked in South Omaha
and during his pastorate here he has mads
many friends. Since Rev. .Head assumed
charge of the Methodist church here the
debt of the church has been paid and the
mortgage burned.
Conncil Orders Books.

Omaha Athletic Clan Plans Boxing
and Wrestling Matches for

A revival of the boxing and wrestling
contests in Omaha and South Omaha Is
planned, and the Omuha Athletic club has
been reorganised for the purpose. It is

Boxers who are well known for their

first "go" at Washington hall on the night
of October T. The boxing game will be
exploited by a ten-round sparring contest
with Brooklyn Tommy Sullivan and either
Kid Herman or Young Morette of Chicago
as principals. Two wrestling matches, in
which one or two local athletes will par
ticipate, will be part of the program,
which has not yet been fully made up.
The men who will put on the gloves are
well known In the world of sport, und
enter the ring at 112 pounds, or there
abouts. Peter Loch, the wrestler, will be
referee.
The management of tha club has been
assured cf immunity from police interfer
ence as long as the louts are conducted as
sparring mutches and limited to a small
number of rounds. About forty local men,
most of them business men with an Incli

financial backing to make the attractions

probably will follow.

Find Selz Rubbers
Some dealer near you prob
ably has Selz Royal Blue
Rubbers for sale; and if he's
wide-awake, you know where he
is; most shoe men who have a
better-than-usual article at the
same price will want you to
know it.
If you don't know which
dealer, go to the best one you
know and ask for Selz Rubbers; ,
no matter what you want, from
a hunting or lumberman's boot,
to a fine storm slipper; rubber
footwear for men, women or
children; ask for Selz Rubbers.
The only difference in price
is the trouble ofasking for them;
you'll find more than that differ
ence in the quality. The name
Selz on the sole is our guaranty
to you that they're better than
usual.
