GOOD AND BAD ALIKE URGE EXTREMES The Safe Road I.Ira Ilrtwrrn the Two Political anil Other rails Points Made by Thief U'.Nrlll of Chicago.. Chief of Police "Nelll of Chicago dellv-ert-d the prlmiial iulilri'f8 at he recent convention of police chiefs In St. IahiI. Ills subject whs, "The Police Chief, Hi Initio and His Wfllcultlcs," a topic that deeply concerns every city In the country. Chief O'Neill wild. In rrt: "The offlclaJ IHe of a chief of police of a lance city Is mainly an unremitting effort to say 'No!' and to say It with the least possible offense to thost whose requests and ' demands are denied. If the chief Is un ex perienced and forceful man who enters his ofllce with a determination to Rive a good and efficient police administration, he must be prepared to resist the powerful pressure of political and other Influences the moment lie assumes the duties of his office. Not only must he maintain Ms resistance against pressure without an instant of re luxhtlon, but this must be steadily In creased until the repression of "ndverse In fluences reaches that point which will win the approval of sensible peoplo, and con vince the public that every consideration must bo subordinated to the good of the service. The Instant the resistance Is re laxed the spring files back with a force proportioned to the pressure which hus been exerted upon It. It will not do to resist part of the time and then relax Into easy going methods occasionally. The suc cessful chief of police must continue In his course evenly and steadily and during every moment of his official existence. "That alert, stubborn and aggressive re sistance to pressure and 'pull' which forms the spring against which the executive of the police department must keep his shoul der sternly set comprises various forces, but mainly they are evident In efforts to get at the publlo crib to obtain 'soft snap' assignments, to secure special exemptions or privileges, and to prevent or mlnlmlxe the punishment of criminals and trans gressors of the law. Other elements enter the problem, but these are the principal ones which may profitably be taken Into account and carefully analyzed. Influences to Be Reckoned With. "Political, social and ethnological Influ ences must be reckoned with. No layman who Is not brought Into dally contact with the routine of business at police head quarters in a large city can form any Idea of the demands made upon the time of the chief of polioe in the multiplicity of mat ters which are daily obtruded on him for consideration. "When the police force Is not under strict civil service laws the woes of the chief are Indescribable. If the pollcmen's clubs were made out of gold instead of locust or hickory, competition for them could scarcely be more strenuous. Citing an Incident In the experience of one of my predecessors. Chief Michael Brennan, will serve to illustrate. Early one morning Alderman Stuckart entered with a big, muscular fellow in tow. They were pleas antly welcomed by the chief, who in formed them in as few words as possible that no vacancies existed and that there was no likelihood of one occurring in the near future. Half an hour later the same alderman returned with another man bent on securing a similar appointment. Again the chief patiently made the same ex planation. Four times this program was repeated by the alderman. When he brought in the fifth man, however, the patience of Chief Brennan was exhausted and he exclaimed: "Can't you understand, Alderman, that I must do some police work and that I must be permitted some time In which to do It? This is the fifth call you have made to this office this morning for the purpose' of getting a constituent appointed on the police force. la every In stance I have told you plainly that there are no vannncies and that no appointments re possible. Still here you come with another man! This is carrying things al together too far. I hope you will not annoy me further.' Placing his hand on the chief's shoulder, the alderman regretfully replied: 'I knew that as well as you do. Chief, but can't you see that I mwst square myself with my people, and partlcuarly those who run the ward and who gave me my seat In the council. I dislike to come here and take up your time on a mission which I know to be hopeless, but there Is no other way out of It, my men will not be satisfied with my explanations and nothing but a statement from your own lips In their hearing will square me, and I may as well tell you right now that I have two more such calls to make today, and you will materially injure my Interests If you do not give me a hearing.' Tho Aldernuuilo FIL "On another occasion this tireless and typical alderman came to me (being then Chief Brennan's private secretary), with a troubled face and worried muuuer. Drop pins dejectedly into a chair he made known bis mission 'I am slowly but surely being driven to insanity,' he said. There is u oertaln patrolman out my way who 18 de termined that I shall secure his promo tlon to the position of sergeant. He never leaps! It is impossible to shake him. No matter bow early I rise in the morning or bow late I return home at night, he or one of his emissaries Is camped on my front door steps, and he had a faithful lookout posted at the rear of the house, so that I cannot make my escape by way of the aileyt The Importunate widow of scriptural celebrity was . a shy, shrinking and purposeless creature compared with this patrolman 1 Time and again I have discussed his cae with the chlof, and I understand that there Is not the slightest chance in the world for his promotion tinder the present conditions. If I had a dozen Interviews with the superintendent I couldn't grasp the hopelessness of this man's case any better than I do now; and I have explained every circumstance to him over and over again, but without mak ing the slightest Impression upon his hopes or determination. He will not listen to In Clever Storj. resson. and now I am ready to resort to I DAM WTF QDRIXTQ VV( V1P other methods.

Meantime I will ao- HERO AND HEROINE HONEYMOONING qunlnt the chief with the circumstances and call his attention to the ruling which covers the caRe.' "This schemn was carried out, and the next morning the alderman and the patrol mn apieared, the latter smiling with satis faction over the prospect that the chief had 'weakened,' and that a short Inter view with him would 'fix things all right' and secure his promotion to the pay and i dignity of a sergeant. After the alderman had defined the object of their rail the chief put on Ills severest expression and, turning suddenly to the policeman, said Do you nut know, officer, that you are violating one of the rules of the de partment by coming here In order to secure promotion by political Influence? Well you are; and the penalty for It Is suspen sion or dismissal -from the service, accord Ing to my discretion. I guess that sus pension will answer while I take your case under advisement.' Cooled Ills Ardor, This turn ul uttulrs was an awful shocK to the patrolman and nearly threw him into a spasm of fear. His Irrepressible am Liltlun to wear the uniform of a sergeant suddenly left him, and all his thoughts be came centered on saving himself from dis grace and In letalning nis position. Then tho aluurman mude an earnest plea that tho man be spared the penalty, on condl tiou that the offense should never be re pealed. After seeming carefully to weigh hib argument of intercession, the general superintendent finally acceded to the al derman's request. When they came out of the chief's private office the patrolman gra.sped the alderman's hantt and wrung it with a grip which told of the gratitude which he could not put in words. That patrolman never asked for promotion after this experience; he was content to let new honors seek him Instead of seeking them. and he is still a patrolman.

"She Is a slip of a girl, only five feet tall Just like a china doll and she seemed altogether out of place on the battlefield But as the shells shrieked and the Mauser bullets sang, she walked cheerfully around, watching the wounded men fall, and then after she had helped them, asking them questions about It. Now and again she paused to take snapshot photographs. "As she was the only girl war correspond ent, It was her business to be there. And such a brave little body! Nothing seemed to daunt her. It Is no wonder the war artist fell In love with her. He couldn' help It. They were married a few days ago." With these heart-searching words the Philadelphia North American opens an 11 lumlnated and Illuminating story of heroine well known to many Omaha peo ple. As a heroine she was Elsie Reasoner, but romance Interposed and made her the bride of Lester Ralph, son of the noted war correspondent. The North American story continues! Heritage of Greatness. Elsie Reasoner was reared In the atmoe phere of the editorial room. Her father, Hon. Calvin Reasoner, now retired from active work, was for many years one of the most forceful writers of the west. She was reared In Leavenworth, Kan., and later went to schctol In Washington, 1. C. When she was graduated she begun the serious work of life, under the tutelage of her father, upon a newspaper In Salt Lake City. Miss Reasoner began by writing art criticisms. Art criticism are not very She wrote so well, too, that before long will be pressed upon him unremittingly "un merciless importunity and under the most embarrassing circumstances.

One thing made a lasting Impression on me. It was tne wonaerrui cneerruiness or our soldier, amid great hardships and suffering." Miss Reasoner wrote many Interesting articles about what she saw amid the fly ing bullets on the battlefield, and Mc Clure's Magaslne and the other magaslnes were glad to print all that they could get from her. j When the war was over she went to Pari, as correspondent for the Associated Press, and then on to Holland, where she was the only American woman to witness the coronation of Queen Wllhelmlna. And all the while she was adding to her fame a. a correspondent. Yonagr Ralph's Great Work. In the meantime the Boer war had be gun. As the foremost mm correspondent, Julian Ralpk went jr th front for Harper, and Blacker White and the Dailr. Mail pf. U)uf iur KtigW bla son, went with him. It was a curious turn of fate. Lester Ralph was educated In Paris a. an artist, and the war in the Transvaal was by no means his first campaign. He was present, with his father, at the fiasco between Greece and Turkey, and the little action he witnessed there only whetted his appetite for more. One day a small British expedition was sent out from Bloemfontein to post procla mations, and young Ralph, looking for pictures, went along. In this way he wit nessed the first sanguinary battle of the war the ambuscade at Banna's Fostv when the Boer, caught Colonel Broadwood'. lit tle column In a gulch and killed or cap tured half of it. Ralph, creeping fhrough the lines, es caped to Bloemfontein, but his father, who. with the other correspondents, hurried t the scene, was thrown from his horse and received Injuries which eventually caused his death. Following the ambuscade at Banna's Post, young Ralph was stricken with the fever, and among the friends who as sisted In nursing him back to health was Rudynrd Kipling. When Methuen fought his disastrous bat tle, along the Mndder river, Ralph was there, drawing picture, of them; he wit nessed the capture of Kronje, and he was with Roberts when Pretoria fell. And all the while his sketches, published In Amer ica and In England, were telling the story of the great campaign as graphically as were his father's written words. Then when it was all over Lester Ralph returned to Paris. Miss Reasoner had seen the young art ist's pictures of the war. They were more than mere sketches to her; back of them she could discern the suffering, the terror, tne hardships they were meant to tell. Two of the pictures drawn by Ralph appealed to her with particular emphasis. One of them presented a trooper kneeling over his wounded horse in a desert. The horse, apparently, was dying and with the affection that only a soldier knows tho trooper wns pouring the last drop of water from a canteen Into its parched mouth. The little war correspondent was able to appreciate the sentiment in that sketch. rchard S Wilhelm PRATTIjE OF THK roUG9TER9. Doctor Now, my little boy, describe your symptoms.
