The htnrlB of Real Estate exchange niTn
burs were Inst night aa light as a feather
ten miles up In the nothingness and their
tnmnchs were an heavy as capacity al
lowed; their heads were midway between.
The occasion was the fourth annual dinner
of the association of "dirt venders," held In
the Commprf lal club, and the fillet of beef
had of necessity to be cut Into more than
seventy charges.
"It Rives me pleasure to greet you." said
Tresldent O. O. Wallace, at about the time
the guests appeared to have killed and
burled their appetites. "There are many
here who do not attend our meetings, but
they are not strangers to us; they are of
the, same business and Interests, and we
welcome you to this, our annual banquet. I
think there was never a time when we
could with reason meet so cheerfully. It
has never looked so good aa the year com
ing, this jubilee year, the fiftieth annivers
ary of the founding of Omaha.
"1 take It that the real estate men are In
a good many ways more than most people
think responsible for.thls growth and con
dition cf prosperity. It Is another case
where the putting aside of dissension and
the building up of united effort have
brought about harmony and growth. The
real estate men are the advance guards of
prosperity. If we fall In our duty of build
ing up Omaha the city does not advance,
for I say that the eighty men here can
make or break Omaha. I think aa I look
at the men who were real estate men forty
five years ago, I think that we have been
going a fast gait. It must be a great
thing for these men who have seen and
helped make this change. It must be to
them a fine thought that the history of the
city Is the history of themselves."
The president closed with a glowing pre
diction of the future of this city and of the
nation.-
Poetry of the Business. .
Rev. Robert Tost, fastor of St. Mary's
Avenue Congregational church, who fol
lowed, talked on the "Poetry of Real Es-
te." lie thought it probable that after a
day In dealing with renters, the agents can
see little poetry in the business, but he
held that this Is wrong. , Work does not
rob life of Its poetry. Most men recognize
that there la a work In the world for them
to do. lie does not believe that there Is an
honest occupation In the world that does
not have poetry In It. It has been his ob
servation that a man gets out of life what
he la looking for, and If he looks for poetry
be gets It. This he finds In particular In
the home-making Idea. The Increasing of
homes In America Is one of the greatest
things a nan can do.
E. O. Mayfleld of the World-Herald talked
for the newspaper men. To sell a lot down
town Is not all the real estate man's dream,
be held, for he knows that homes must be
made for the public, so additions are laid
out from the crowded centers. One char
acteristic of the real estate man Is that he
In always, awake or asleep, for Omaha.
When a real estate man falls It Is usually
because he has not been close enough In
touch with the press.
W. T. Graham convulsed the diners with
an Ironical trlbuto to the "Modern Ten
ant." He said that Dr. Yost had seen
poetry In the real estate business, but he
would hardly assert that there Is any In
the rental business. 'He said that his life,
has been one, long. Intense yearn for the
opportunity of paying tribute to the mod
ern tenant, and he now seised It, wrapped
In an ecstacy of uncontrolled delight. After
amusing; the crowd until the glasses jingled
together with adventures In the house
vending line, he concluded:, "The modern
tenant Is here to stay, he Is 4 necessity
we lore him; the real estate man la here to
stay, he Is a necessity no one loves him.
Let us love on another."
"The Home as an Investment" was the
theme on which John W. Robbins grew elo
quent and continued so for some minutes.
People should give more thought to the
Idea of bulldlrur a home, they must do so
to build up Omaha. They .should purchase
Omaha goods, patronise Omaha Industries
and schools and buy Omaha stocks and
bonds. They should buy Omaha real es
tate. He saw the greatest promise for 1904
and felt that the real estate men should
take an aajuiesslve hold.
N. P. Dodga. Jr., told "What There is In
It." He gave Interesting details of the
building and real estate business In Boston.
He explained the building trusts, and told
bow almost all the new business blocks
nd hotels In that city had been built In
that way by young real estate men. The
promoter would get an optlqn on a piece
of land, get plana drawn for a building,
get some trustee to approve of the scheme
and then get trustees to take stock. He
believed that 'time , Is fast approaching
when Omaha real estate men can do the
same, raising the stock locally. He be
lieved that such an association could buy
a building on South Sixteenth street and
manage It to make per cent. Another
astern scheme, which can be worked here,
is to form an association that Is, for a few
real estate men to associate themselves,
putting money Into a pool, to buy a build
ing. During the evening a quartet composed of
Messrs. Fink, Paine, Cowan and Martin
sang, and the evening ended with "Amer
ica." DOCTOR MEET AT ANNVAIa DUIKER.

BLANKETS ARE UNCLE SAM'S
8noh ii Deciiien la Binm Oats, and May
Affect Oolby Trial
SOLDIER GETS ONE YEAR IN PRISON
Jndge Manger Decides Army Supplies
Leaned to States la Tine at
Peace Belong to the Fed '
eral Government.
In deciding Tuesday that the blankets
which Edgar Blnns waa Indicted for steal
ing from the Millard Rifles' armory be
longed to the federal government, Judge
Munger of the United States district court
Is said to have estabNshed an Important
precedent with reference to the case s gainst
former Adjutant General L. W. Colby, In
dicted by the recent federal grand Jury
for alleged financial discrepancies arising
from the disposition by him of certain
army blankets, the vital question In this
case being whether the blankets belonged
to the state or federal government.
Blnns got one year and one day In the
Sioux Falls penitentiary, the minimum.
The case waa that' of the United States
against Edgar Blnns, Indicted on the
charge of stealing thirty-six blankets from
the armory of the Millard Rifles some two
or more months ago.
F. W. Fitch, attorney, appeared for the
defendant and questioned the Jurisdiction
of the federal court in the matter, on the
ground that the property stolen waa the
property of the state and not of the United
States, and hence his client waa amenable
only to the state courts.
' He maintained further that as these
blankets Jiad been transferred to the state
of Nebraska by the general government;
and by the adjutant general of the state
to the several military organizations, hence
the several company commanders were re
sponsible for the blankets until they were
issued or sold to the enlisted men as part
of their equipment, vhen they became the
personal property of the Individuals to
whom they were Issued, and that the gov
ernment had' no further tftle or Interest In
them, as the government had received the
equivalent for them In cash paid by the
soldier out of his clothing and blanket al
lowance, which approximated $54 per year.
Rash Makes Ills Plea.
Assistant United States District Attorney
Rush, on behalf of the government, main
tained that the government still had. a
proprietary and supervisory Interest In the
blankets and that In fact they had never
been wholly alienated from the govern
ment, and were as much a part of the sol
dier's equipment as any part of the ord
nance supplies Issued him for his use aa a
soldier, or of any other quartermaster sup
plies Issued him for the same purpose.
The appropriation made by the general
government for the maintenance of the
mllltla of the several states was simply a
loan and the government title to whatever
property was bought or Issued for the
equipment of the soldier waa absolute and
could not be alienated any more than the
equipment of the soldier of the regular
army.
Judge Munger took the caae under ad
visement for an hour and at 4 o'clock
handed down his decision which In. effect
sustained the position taken by Mr. Rush.
He said:
""The appropriation from the United
States for the purchase of stores for the
use of militia of the United States In times
of peace means that they are but a loan
to the states, and the stores still remain
the property of the United States, When
these stores . are worn out they, are ex
amined by a board of officers and their
disposition recommended and If sold the
money received from the sale becomes the
property of the United States. The appro
priation apportioned to the several states
was made or that purpose and all quar
termaster supplies stand In exactly the
Bame relation as arms, ammunition and
ordnance equipments, including blankets.
Hence, when this man stole the blankets
from the local mllltla company, -lie stole
them from the United States, and Is amen
able to tho laws of the United States."
Blnns Pleads Guilty.
After Judge Munger had given his de
cision, Mr. Fitch, attorney for Blnns, with
drew the plea of not guilty for his client
and entered a plea of guilty. He asked
that the court extend whatever leniency
he could to the accused under the law, and
made an earnest plea. He pleaded . his
youjh In extenuation, and asked the court
to take Into consideration that Blnns 'had
served In a Pennsylvania regiment during
the Spanish-American war In Cubs, and
In the same regiment In the Philippines,
and that upon the expiration of his en
listment had returned to his home In Phila
delphia and subsequently enlisted In the
regular army. In the regiment stationed at
Fort Crook, but had left the service, but
under what circumstances he did not ex
actly know. ,
Judge Munger then pronounced sentence,
giving the accused the minimum sentence
under the law. which waa one year and
one day In the penitentiary at Sioux Falls.

There was a man once named Wagner
who told a tale about the big buck singers
of his country, away over In the back of
Germany somewhere, a ' long time before
slot machines were ever against the law;
and the singers which' that, man Wagner
knew about got together at a place to sing
sobga for the finest kind of prizes. They
Just had to have It. And that bunch of
music makers tinkered on tunes till they
worked grooves on the Inside of their mu
sic boxes; and sung the songs to the crowd
and had a showdown for who should get
the property. But Wagner and his bunch
of classlo note-benders were not the money
not by considerable RTnall change.
Right here In Omaha, where a blind man's
hand-organ sounds like music to the crowd,
there has been a slng-fest, whereat the
local bards and strangers were not barred
burst Into chunks of melody in competi
tion for a prize that would have ended the
meistersinger's show in one hard hustle for
the can. In the Walters' Social cluh it
was, near where Fourteenth crosses Doug
las, and the Judges were members of tho
"Smart Set," the company of colored com
edians which Is wearing' the boards at
Boyd's. The prise . was a cluster of ten
sliver medallions put up by the manager
of a certain local brewery, and the lyrics
that were leered were all In honor of the
blissful amber tide of hop and malted bar
ley. The Walters' club Is the hangout of more
than a 10-cent cut of the colored swell In
Omaha, and about a week ago was evolved
the Idea that the bountiful talent in voice
which the members have should be turned
to a worthier task than the Idle singing of
ragging melody. The brewery impressarto
gladly hung up the purse and poetry
crammed with all the good superlatives was
quickly crowded and Jammed to the meas
ure of the tune.
At this point In the game the colored
professionals reached town. ,and the mem
bers of the club made quickness Blow In
sending them a card. Bo in the club rooms
last night, while the crowd picked at frank
furters and showed its appreciation of the
brew In a different way, the contestants
ang the songs. First came Gua Hall of
the opera troupe. His manner waa the
finished pose of the professional, but his
words 'were pale; he could not warm suf
ficiently to the extra pule of the local
house. Walt J. Webb of Omaha followed to
huge applause, and then George Sloton and
lastly Henry Brown. George was the boy,
however, with the warm language and tho
advertising voice, and touched the man
ager In his ten spot. After these E. c.
Burton, Levi Broomfleld and other talent,
local and from New York, sang songs
without hope of other rewnrd than the
laudation of the company which they got;
and at the same time the beer grew better
liked as the clock got twisted round.

Need Iron Screens.
Chief Brlggs is again calling the attention
of the city officials to the need of heavy
Iron screens over the windows at the city
Jail. The chief saya that not a day passes
but contraband goods are passed into pris
oners at the Jail. The bars to the win
dows are far enough apart to permit a
good sized package to be handed through.
There Is no objection, the chief says, to
prisoners having smoking tobacco, but he
does not like the Idea of liquors being
handed in to prisoners.! There is no way
to stop this practice, except by the placing
of heavy wire screens over the windows.
A number of young men have been caught
handing articles In through the windows
and have been given light fines by the
police Judge, but this does not deter othera
from doing the same thing. A good heavy
netting is needed at once. The Fire and
Police board requested the council to take
Borne action on this matter and the netting
was ordered but has not been placed yet.
Zelger Brothers Fined.
John and Henry Zelger were fined flO
each by Police Judge King yesterday after
noon for obstructing the road to the river.
After the court had Imposed the fine notice
of an appeal waa given. The Zeigers stated
to the court that In the future they would
not in any manner obstruct the road to
the river. An agreement has been made
with Mr.. Kountze for a strip of land
through his property, and with the prece
dent set by the fining of the Zeigers yes
terday. It is thought that the city will not
have any more trouble about this road.
. Lumber Contract Let.
The city of South Omaha has entered Into
a contract with the Watklna Lumber com
pany for lumber to be used In laying cross
walks and sidewalks during the present
year. This contract calls for all of tho
planks and stringers, both yellow and
white pine, ordinarily used In such con
struction. Just as soon aa the weather
will permit the city street force will com
mence the laying of a number of cross
walks which were ordered last fall but
could not be put down on account of the
ground freezing. Some work Is being done
almost every day on sidewalk repairs In
order to keep the wooden walks In as good
condition as possible.
i Mankoskl Arrested Again.
Paul Mankoskl waa arrested yesterday on
the charge of abandoning his wife. This
is the second time the man hat been
brought to police headquarters on the same
charge. ' At the time of the first arrest
Mankoskl ugroed to support his wife and
tho prosecution- was dropped. It appears
that he did not keep his agreement, hence
the second complaint. Mankoskl has given
ball and the hearing has been set far
Thursday of next week. Mrs. Mankoskl
Btated to the court that she married her
husband after a few days acquaintance,
but that he soon tired of her and told her
that she could look out for herself. This
she has declined to do, as she says that
her husband Is amply able to provide for
her.

.Gentlemen My son hsd sn abscess on his loft lung, ne doctored a long time
without any good results. Finally some friend recommended Milks' Kmulsion I got
a box and found it was the only thing that had ever given my son any relief. He has
taken it for several months and it has benefitted him more than any medicine he has
ever taken. I believe it to be one of the best remedies on the market.
