Friday afternoon Chief Brlggs of the police department served a notice on offi cial of the Rock Island road to imme diately provide street arc lights at the In tersection of Washington and Madison streets. The city attorney has also been directed by the mayor and council to com mence suit against the Rock Island road for 1504 to pay for lights ordered at rail road crossings a year ago. It appears from the records that this road never paid any attention to the orders of the council re garding arc lights at crossings, and so the city ha maintained the lights for a year with the expectation of securing the cost by a suit in the courts.

I STICKING FOR STREET CARS Omaha Viewers Woa't Be Happy Till They Get the Extension They Want. It was quite evident from the report of the street railway committee of the Omaha View Improvement club at Its meeting last night thHt the extension of the Thirty third street line from Parker to Maple streets has not yet materialised. The theme Is a favorite one with the Omaha Viewers, but three years of deferred hopes have not yet sickened their hearts, and the commit tee is urged to contlnuo Its visits to the street railway magnates and the city coun cil with the determination to get the ex tension some time. If not now. Little encouragement was derived from the report of tho special committee on the prospect of abating the duliy nuisance up about the Prospect Hill parks, and the Cuming street dulry was cited as an In stance of how such a nuisance could not be abated. The owner of the dairy wanted to be shown how he was to be ousted, and the committee was cliarged with a further consideration of the problem. Sewer matters were discussed, and the ewer committee wa directed to investigate the proposed route of the projected sewer In the district and see If It could not be made to follow thejtlnuoaities of the creek from Maple street south. A motion was made by George 8ancha that the Omaha View club go on record a opposed to the t:0,QOO bond proposition to pay off the floating Indebtedness of the county, but the motion was subsequently withdrawn from consideration, and made a special order of business for next Friday evening. The matter of a bunch of half-grown hoodlums who ure not attending school, but who are putting In moat of their time encouraging truancy among other children of the neighborhood, waa referred to the school committee, with the request that the attention of the truant officer be called to the matter and that the hoodlums be properly admonished and disciplined.

MUST FLY AMERICAN FLAC House Com mine fipor;a Favorably oo Bill Regarding Supply Vessel a. PARTIAL AGREEMENT ON ARMY MEASURE Provides that llereaiier There Shall Be No Rank Higher Tkaa Itrlg adler General at Head of Department. WASHINGTON, March 2ti.-Reprcenta-tlve Stevens of Minnesota today filed the favorable report authorized by the house committee on merchant marine and fish eries on an amended senate bill "to require the employment of vessels of the United States for public purposes.'' The bill requires all government supplies transported by aea to be carried In vessels either owned by the government or flying the American flag. The report bases the necessity for the bill on the ground that it never Is safe to depend on foreigners for the defense of our own country. The views of the mliTorlty of the com mittee, prepared by Representative Luck ing of Michigan and signed by Representa tives Splght, Goulden, McDeimott and Lucking, declnres the bill to be a step in the policy of subsidising our merchant marine, for which for seven years the most active, persistent. Influential and unblush ing lobby has been hounding the life out of both branches of congress. The report says that outside of the goods transported In vessels owned by the government there was paid In freights for such carrying In the year 1901 KR3.954 and that "this carry ing is done principally to the Philippines and, like the major portion of all our war and naval expenditures of the present day, nas oeen rendered necessary by the Ill-advised subjugation and retention of those Islands." l.lqoor Rill Amended. The house committee on tha i,,Hiir- today authorized a favorable renort on th Hepburn and Dolllver bill granting the states ponce power over "original pack ages or intoxicating Honor coming their borders as Interstate commerce.

Was la Flower" The Kester dramatisation of the Major novel Is tolerably familiar to Omaha people from Its presentations here In the past. The pr?sent engagement Is of Interest solely because of the connection with the company of Miss Roselln Knott, who has recently been lifted Into a stellar position. Miss Knott has the requisite charms of person and the advantage of outh to make her assumption of the rola of the Imperious, willful and capricious sister of Henry VIII a pleasing one. In her quieter passages she very well realises the part, hut In the more strenuous moods she bIiows a decided Inclination to overdo It, and thus mars the efTect of her previous good work. Her company Is a larg one, and is csst with considerable taste for the production of the play. JUDAISM THE OLDEST RELIGION Rabbi Cohn Preaches on the Tople of Ills Faith, Rsplalnlna; Ita Grandenr. In Temple Israel last night Rabbi Fred erick Cohn preached on Judaism. "The question Is often aked. What is Judaism?" said .Mr. Cohn. "There Is a necessity for an-answer to this question becauso of the astounding Ignorance con cerning Judaism, not only among those not of the faith, but among the Jews them selves. Many do not know why they nre Jews except that they were born so; many have no Intelligent or rational Idea of their religion. Many believe with Heine that Judaism Is not a religion, but a misfor tune. These are ashamed and seek to apologize, to hide uway their religion and be silent. They do not know the glory of Judaism; if they understood It they would be proud to proclaim It from the housetops to the whole listening world. "What Is Judaism? Do you know that it Is the oldest of religions? to you know that It was before the Hlble existed? The Bible did not create Judaism: Judaism treated the Bible. Do you know that it Is the mother faith of the leading religions of the world? Those who are proud of the faiths they worship derive them historically and actually from Judaism. They are made of the very elements of Judaism. Kmerson said: 'To be great Is to be misunderstood. How great must Judaism be, for none has been so greatly, so grossly, so persistently, It would almost seem so maliciously, mis understood as Judaism. Is it not true that tj the majority Jews are a sort of mys tery? The same Is true a thousandfold more of their religions. If. a Jew opens the senate with prayer, the fact Is sent over the country by the Associated Press as wonderful. "What Is Judaism? The Talmud tells of a heathen who asked what was Judaism. The answer was: 'That which Is hateful unto thee, do thou not unto another." This has since become familiar to the world In It positive form as the golden rule. This Is all of the law, the rest Is commentary, Israel Zangwlll says: 'Sanity, unity, sanc titythese are the trinity of Judaism.' Taken Jointly and separately these consti tute the very soul of Judaism. Judaism Is nothing If not sane. It takes a reasonable view of life. It lay an emphasis on life here and duty to our fellow men. We do not find reason conflict with faith; we are not asked to accept blindly unreasonable dogmas only what is right and reasonable. For these things we should be proud of our religion. "Unity he latest discovery of the latest philosophy, yet It waa taught by Judaism since the earliest time. Unity has ever been the central thought and characteristic of Judaism. The Jews have always been unitarians. Unity of the world, the unity of mankind, the unity of moral law, the unity of society. Tennyson says: 'One God. one law, on element, one far off Divine event to which the whole of creation moves.' "Sanctlficatlon, morality and righteous ness are not only the mission, hut the pas sion of Judaism. Oh, how proud we should be when we think we have a part In thl religion, which has come down to us through all hardship and heroism. Sanity, unity, aanctlty the Jewels or an eternal Judaism. Thus may we find favor In the eye of the world as true, self-respecting Jewa and Jewesses." THIRD OFFENDER IS FINED Three Saloon Keepers Pay One Hun dred Dollars for Breaking Closing" Order. William Nesselhous, saloon keeper, has been fined tlOO and costs In police court for having been found guilty of keeping his place of business open between the hours of midnight and 4 a- m. This makes the third conviction since the recent order waa Issued. Speaking of the order commanding the saloons to be closed between midnight and 4 a. m. and to keep their bars unobscured between those hours. Chief of Police Dona hue aald: "I waa around town Friday night with Captain Mostyn and Sergeant Lempsey and Cook until 2 o'clock in the morning and found that th order Is being observed to the letter. It was Impossible to get a drink between those hours and I am gratified at the general observance of the order."

Stories of atrocities practiced on natives In the Congo country by Belgium rulera were recited. They were Illustrated by photographs taken by missionaries, the subjects being children and youths, maimed and mutilated, hands nnd feet chopped off, and. according to the members of the delegation, all be cause their parents and male relatives failed to bring in the prescribed number of pounds of rubber dally. The missionaries also showed that their work was rendered nearly valuless by the attitude of Belgian officers In the Congo country. They monopolized all of the food supplies, making It difficult for the missions to procure vegetables or fowl, or anything to eat from the natives, who were obliged to turn their produce Into the hands of Belgian officers. Ly the cruelties the na tives were driven away from missions and schools. Secretary Hay asked the callers to reduce their plaints to a written memorandum, which ho would consider. He could not hold out any definite promise of relieving the situation In the Congo, so far as the natives were concerned, because the United States was not one of the signatories to the treaty under which the Congo Free Stnte came Into existence. Late In the day the delegation culled on President Roosevelt, seeking his aid nnd Influence to bring a change in the condition In the Congo Free State. They called his attention to the name facta they hnd pre acntcd to Secretary Hay. The president promised to give the subject careful con sideration, requesting that he be supplied with an accurate and detailed statement of the situation. SAD TALE OF AN OLD SOLDIER Police Ineover a Case of Apparent Kitortlon that Make Ordinary t'sory deem Mild. James Shepherd, 61 years of age, of Twenty-first and Manderson streets, was ar rested last night on a warrant filed by Haven T. Andrews of 1430 South Sixteenth street, charging him with leaving the county with mortgaged property. When taken to the police station Shepherd told an astounding story of paying extortionate Interest that would make Shylock feel like three dlmea when compared with Andrews Shepherd said that five years ago he mortgaged his furniture to Andrews for 125 and has since then to last July been pay ing something like 200 per cent per annum as Interest, in three-month payments of $11. Since the original loan he haa paid over 1200 and still owes the principal of 2S. Last July he had an opportunity of going to Colorado and working In the beet fielda and asked Andrews' permission to leave the county. Thl permission, he says, waa granted him and he left. Shepherd, who Is an old soldier, left hi pension certificate and a personal note with Andrews aa a aecurlty for the furniture he was taking with him. He was unfortunate however, in the beet fields, his old age pre venting him from coping with the difficult work and hla children fell 111. The old man kept the mortgaged property through all his trials, but the sickness In his family forced him to sell the furniture to pay for the medicine necessary. In some manner or the other he managed to make his way back to Omaha with his family and has been living In a hand-to-mouth way since. As Andrews hsd the pension certificate, Shepherd has been unable to draw the pen sion of $8 a month which la allowed him. The old man was terribly broken down at the police station and aeemed to feel the blow deeply. Detective Dan Baldwin, who went to Shepherd's home to make the ar rest, found the family living In a three roomed cottage amid the signs of direst poverty.
