Life.
Thomas D. Edwards, 27 years of age, died
yesterday 'afternoon from the effects of
strychnine taken at 1 a. m. In hla room at
1307 Capitol avenue, apparently with suicidal
Intent.
Domestlo trouble and general despondency
are assigned as the motives for the man's
self-destruction. He Is survived by a wife,
an "actress" at tho Odeon "theater," where
she is known as "Dolly Vernon." The wife's
absence all Thursday night Is said to have
worked on Edward's mind to the extent
that he resolved to kill himself.
The Edwards came to Omaha from Cozad
abcut a week ago. The husband worked
as a machinist for Thomas Davis. Other
occupants at 1807 Capitol avenue Bay the
couple had more or less trouble during
their short residence at that number.
The fact of Edwards' act was not known
urtll 8:30 a. m., when a colored servant
went to his room and found the man suffer
ing. Dr. M. J. Ford was summoned, but
the man proved too far gone for medical
aid.
Last August Edwards tried to take the
lives of his wife and self. Jle cut his wife
throat with a rasor and was arrested, being
later released on a suspended scntenco.
Three months before that be tried to kill
himself at Cumberland, Wyo., his home,
but survived a bullet wound through his
abdomen. At that time he married the girl
who is now his wife.. T. T. Edwards, an
engineer at Cumberland, is father of the
dead man. Mrs. Edwards' home formerly
was at Spokane, Wash.
Coroner Brailey has taken the body In
charge and notified relatives at Cumber.
land, Wyo. An Inquest will be held.
OMAHA SCHOOLS AS MODELS
Attract Teachers from Iowa Who
Want to Study Most Modern
Methods.
A mere annual meeting of a teachers'
association Is not In it with the Omaha
public schools as a drawing card for In
structors who are anxious to get new ideas
nd observe the best methods.
This is shown by the fact that the entire
teaching staffs from Missouri Valley and
Harlan, la., preferred to come to this city
Friday to visit the schools rather than to
attend the meeting of the Western Iowa
Teachers' association at Red Oak. Forty
came from Missouri Valley and nineteen
from Harlan, and they came free from the
critical eyes of their superintendents, who
had to attend the meeting. They were
taken In charge by Superintendent David
son and Miss Clara Cooper, supervisor of
primaries. Cass school was used fir pur
poses of Illustration for the grade teachers.
The Instructors interested in high school
work had the methods in vogue explained
by Principal Waterhouse and his as.-i.staiits.
"We had our choice of coming to Omaha
to inspect the schools here and of going to
the annual meeting at Red Oak," Bald one
of the Iowa teachers. "The meeting has
usually been held at Council Bluffs, giving
us an opportunity to attend and at the
same time get in touch with what, is going
on in the Omaha schools, which we regard
as models for the middle west. Given the
choice of the meeting or a day in your
schools, we decided Immediately to come
her, believing we could learn more of
actual benefit to us than by listening to the
papers and discussions of the association."
The school "marms" left for home last
night. No special entertainment had been
arranged for them, because of the lack of
time and the fact that they are on a
working" tour and not mere! to eajoy
theaaselves.

A tinging blow on tho "back of the head
caused Leo Ketterer to ask for a divorce
from Cora Ketterer.
A alarm clock In the hand of Mrs. Ket

tition of the husband is to be believed, the
hand of Mrs. Ketterer pointed at him, while
the clock struck one during an altercation
of two.. She had thrown It. Mr. Ketterer
gees on in his appeal to the court for de

temper."
"Regardless of her duties as a wife," hi
says, "Mrs. Ketterer September 1, . $901,
threatened to kill me and threw at me an
empty beer mug and then the alarm clock."
January 16, according to Mr. Ketterer, It
was a porcelain coffee pot that was thrown
at his home plate. July, 1904, he continues,
she began to kill him with a revolver, but

"WHACKS" .
And What They Mean.
When Old Mother Nature gives you a
whack" remember "there's a reason," so
try and say. "thank you," then set about
finding what you have done to demand
the rebuke, and try and get back into
line, for that's the happy place after all.
Curious how many highly organised peo
ple fall to appreciate and heed the first
little, gentle "whacks" of the good old
Dame, but go right along with the habit
whatever it may be, that causes her dis
approval. WlUskey, Tobacco, Coffee, Tea
or other unnatural treatment of the body,
until serious Illness sets in or some chrofilc
diseases
Some people seem to get on very well
with those things for awhile, and Mother
Nature apparently cares but Utile what
they do.
Perhaps she has no particular plans for
them and thinks it little use to waste
time on their training.
There are people, however, who seem
to be selected by Nature to . "do things."
The old Mother expects them to carry
out some department of her great work.
A portion of these selected ones oft and
again seek to stimulate and then deaden
tho tool (the body) by some one or more
of the drugs Whiskey, Tobacco, Coffee,
Tea, Morphine, etc.
You know all of these throw down the
same doss of alkaloids In Chemical analy
sis. They stimulate and then depress
They take from man or woman the power
to do his or her best work.
After these people have drugged for a
time, they get a hint, or mild "whack" to
remind them that they have work to do,
a mission to perform, and should be about
the business, but are loafing along the
wayside and become unfitted for the fame
and fortune that waits for them if they
but stick to the course and keep the body
clear of obstructions so it can carry out
the behests of tha mind.
Blokness is a call to "come up higher."
These hints come in various forms. It
may be stomach trouble or bowels, heart,
eyes, kidneys or geiferal nervous prostra
tion. You may depend upon it when a
"whack" comes It's a warning to quit
some abuse and do the right and fair
thine with the body. .
Perhaps it Is coffee drinking that offends.
That is one of the greatest causes of
human disorder among Americans.
Now, then, If Mother Nature is gentle
with you and only gives light, little
"whacks" at first to attract attention,
don't abuse her consideration, or she will
soon hit you harder, sure.
And you may also be sure she will hit
you very, very hard If you insist on fol
lowing the way you have been going.
It seems hard work to give up a habit,
and we try all sorts of plans to charge
our ill feelings to some other cause than
the real one. J
Coffee drinkers wflen ill will attribute
the trouble to bad food, malaria, over
work and what not, but they keep on
being sick and gradually getting worse,
until they are finally forced te quit en
tliely, even the "only one cup a day."
Then they begin to get better, and unless
they have gone long enough to set up
soma fixed organic disease, they generally
get entirely well. "
It la easy to quit coffee at once and for
all, by havtng well made Poatum, with
Its rich, deep, seal brown color which
comes to the beautiful golden brown when
good cream la added, and the crisp snap
of good, mild Java is there if the Poutum
has been boiled long enough to bring It
out.
It pays to be well and happy, for good
old Mother Nature then sends us her
blessings of many and various kinds and
helps us to gain fame and fortune.
atrip ' off the handicaps, leave out the
deadening habits, hard Mother Nature's
hints, quit being a loser and become
winner. She will help you sure if you cut
out the things that keep you back.

ITALIANS nOLD BIG RALLY
Republican. Clnb Meets at Washington Hall
with Much Enthusiasm.
GOVERNOR .MICKEY GETS AN OVATION
His Address Is Well Received by the
Great Crowd, and E. Rosewater'a
, Remarks Are Cheered
to the Echo.
A very large and enthuslartl" meeting of
the Italian Republican club was held In
Washington hall Thursday. Judging from
the applause that greeted the speakers and
the manner In which the audience rose to
the favorable mention of the candidate of
the party, there remains no doubt that the
ballots of the Italian citizens will be cast
straight and for the republican candidates.
President Marfesl presided and In his
opening remarks assured his hearers that
the republican party was the friend of
labor and of the worklngman. He said:
"Eight years ago you struck for work;
now you strlks for wages."
Dr. II. L. Ramacciottl Introduced the
speakers of the evening, Governor Mickey
being first presented. The governor was
accorded the heartiest reception possible
and it was some minutes before he could
begin his address. (
Governor Mickey's Remarks.
The governor referred to ttie rapid growth
of the state of Nebraska, saying: "I am
glad to meet the bone and sinew, the men
who do things In the upbuilding of the
commonwealth. The republican party Is
one of progress and its policies are the ones
upon which to build a great nation. The
most important thing in a great nation Is
labor. The great army of our civil war
came to the extent of 85 per cent from the
ranks of the worklngmen, and the work of
that army, its victories and Its sufferings.
proves beyond question the superiority of
our country over all others in the matter
of the laboring classes. No country can
succeed that does not protect labor. We
had a great debt after the war, and
think that that was probably the cause
that suggested the first protective tariff.
Bismarck, the great statesman, said of It:
'It Is the wisest and greatest of policies.'
"We must protect labor against the ac
tion of capital that will destroy competi
tion. Capital cannot prosper without labor
and labor should be given fair compensa
tion for services. Unless we build on lines
of Justice and right between these interests
we cannot be a great nation. This nation
Is not a nation of conquest, but It is an all
helping nation, and when we consider what
It has done for Cuba and Porto Rico and
the Philippines we realize that this nation
must grow."
The governor closed by asserting that It
had been his aim to give the state "a clean,
nonesi administration.
Italians and Liberty.
E. Rose water, the next speaker, received
a very generous reception. He told of his
efforts before the Joint committee of both
houses In behalf of Italian Immigration,
uei-iuaa ne uiu not consider poverty a
crime. He spoke of the efforts of the
republican party toward making this
free country and abolishing slavery, saying
tnat slavery was harmful to every work
ing man on the face of the globe. "How
could an Italian be anything but a re
publican?" asked Mr. Rosewater. "They
love freedom and are willing to die for it.
Next Tuesday's event is of more Interest
to those who have come from foreign coun
tries than to those born to freedom and
equality. You ought to cast your ballot for
the executive, the governor and the whole
legislative ticket. It Is the hlirhest Drlvl-
lege of citizenship. It was formerly the
greatest privilege to be, a Roman citizen,
but It is now grenter to be an American
citizen. I trust that you will x vote the
American ticket from top to bottom. (Wild
cheering.) It Is not possible for you to
know all the candidates, but the ticket rep
resents a great principle.
Worktna-men and Wages.
"I like to see workmen employed and ac
good wages. I am greatly in earnest In
wanting public utilities owned by the mu
nicipality. There are forty towns in Ne
braska smaller than Omaha and lighted
by their own plants. We pay over $90,000
for street lighting and $92,800 for water,
and we are the darkest city of the size
In America. The opportunity for labor
will come when the city builds Its electric
lighting works, and they will not diminish
the use of labor in the existing plant, for
It has business enough In private lighting
and In furnishing power. It has been said
that the electric lighting proposition was
Introduced to defeat the purchase of the
water works. That is all humbug. In 1903
every candidate for municipal office was
pledged to municipal ownership. It is true
that the electric lighting ordinance origin
ated with the Omaha Electric Light and
Power company with no Idea that it would
pass the council. But the corporation could
not control the gentlemen of -the council.
It was a Trojan horse that It might be the
means of introducing an ordinance for the
extension of the lighting contract for some
years at high prices. I am willing to
stand my share of taxation because I
know that in the end it will be less, stand
for Omaha against eastern capitalists In
New York and Boston who have no inter
est here beyond outtlng coupons."
Isaacs Are Plain.
H. C. Brome spoke at some length on
the Issues of the campaign, going straight
at the points in question. He clearly de
fined the position of both parties on the
tariff and its relation toward the working
man.
Chairman Cowell of the city and county
campaign committee spoke of the glories
of the party, the Individual merit of John
L. Kennedy and the fact that with him
Nebraska aad Douglas county could get
something more than seeds. He said:
'John L Kennedy is a forceful man, a self-
made man, 'and one of the best lawyers
n the state. He is absolutely clean. I
advise you to put a cross on the top of the
ticket and then you will know that your
vote is valid and right,"
EASr POLITICS FOR BEGI.ERS
First Voters Ustea to Ararameats
at First Methodist Church.
It is all over but the pyrotechnics. It
was settled last evening In the parlors of
the First Methodist church, where the Ep
worth league held a special meeting to lis
ten to Dr. A. H. Hippie, A. W. Jefferls and
Rev. E. Comble Smith, who espoused the
causes of Judge Alton B. Parker, President
heodore RooaeVett and Rev. Mr. Swallow
respectively. The purpose of the meeting
was to enlighten young voters how to vpte
their first ballot, and. If sound logic and ap
plause may b. taken as a criterion, every
young voter present will cast his vote for
Roosevelt and th. republican ticket on No
vember t.
Dr. Hippie, candidate for water commis

the young people present what a paragon
of virtue and principle Judge .Parker is
nd why everyone should cast his vots for
him. The doctor really worked hard, and
what he lacked In sound srgument b.
made up by arousing th. risibilities of his
auditors.

was roundly applauded at the close of his
talk.
Rev. E. Comble Smith closed the even
ing's entertainment by explaining to the
Epworth leaguers why they should vote for
Rev. Mr. Swallow for the presidency. Rev.
Mr. Smith arraigned the saloon as being
the source of most of the poverty, Im
morality and political corruption of the
country. The speaker urged young voters
to destroy the monster that Is supping the
foundation or the republic.
SIXTH WARD CflLOBED VOTERS
Rallr at Peterson's Hall Is One of the
Genuine Sort.
Republican enthusiasm was at flood tide
in the Sixth ward Thursday night, where a
meeting was held under tho auspices of the
Roosevelt Colored Republican club. Peter
son hall, at the corner of Burdotte and
Twenty-fourth streets, was filled to over
flowing and the convincing arguments of
the speakers went straight to the hearts of
the auditors, who expressed their appre
ciation in - frequent Dursts or applause.
Every argument went home and there was
ring of sincerity in every speecn.
The Knights of Pythias band played be
fore the speaking began and John G. Pegg,
president of the club, acted as chairman
of the meeting. S. C. Barnes was one of
the first speakers. - He reviewed the good
times that preceded Cleveland, the business
depression that fallowed his election and
the prosperity that returned with the re-
establlshment of republican rule under Mc-
Klnley. He showed that the scenes conse
ouent upon the election of Cleveland wer.
only a repetition of those under President
James Buchanan.
Edward V. Morearty made a ringing
speech along the same lines. He said from
the day of Abraham Lincoln to the present
Theodore Rooseveflt Is the best friend the
colored man has had. He said he Is a
president of the people and not of any
race, creed or color. He concluded by say
ing that all the democrats had ever pro
duced for the worklngman was soup
houses:
C. J. Anderson said that greater har
mony had never been known In this state
In the party and among the candidates B.
P. Thomns called attention to 'the good old
democratic times" of 1896 when laboring
men went from place to place looking for
work which they could not find. Among
other speakers were S. B. Smith, Rev. H.
V. Blummer of Kansas City and Charles
L. Saunders. They Importuned the voters
to stick to the republican party, which they
said is the only party that has ever done
anything for the laboring man end for th.
colored man. They showed the democratio
party as having been a failure whenever It
has been in, power.
Governor' John H. Mickey and John L.
Kennedy, the congressional candidate, ar
rived at the meeting somewhat late'Hjut
both were received with deafening cheers.
Governor Mickey's clean and blrnneless ad
ministration was made the subject of flat
tering comment by several of the speaker
and Mr. Kennedy went Into it In some de
tail, showing that there was a concerted
effort on the part of the democrats is
many states to defeat the election of re
publican governors with caflumny and mis
representation. "It la a petty fight," he said, "waged by
petty men to defeat candidates of high
standing; but In this state it has been over
done."
Governor Mickey spoke but a few min
utes. He alluded In high terms to John L.
Kennedy, as did other speakers of th.
evening.

He told how eager he Is to secure the votes
of those present and all thlr friends for
himself for the legislature and what laws
he will repeal If he is elected. R. F. Wil
liams, a democratic wheel horse of the
First ward, talked some about taxes and
of the wickedness of the last Douglas
county delegation In the legislature. D. C.
Patterson, candidate for the legislature,
said that the corporations controlled the
democratic party In the south, and that
there Is not much difference between the
parties anyhow.
Candidate Berge put in his appearance at
this time, and spoke for but a few min
utes. He said: ; "I can hope to do but
little In the way of reform unless you elect
a legislature In sympathy with me. I will
be the people's servant. X would rather
go down to defeat than to be the tool of
corporations." He mado a pathetic pica for
Mr. Hitchcock and urged that everybody
vote for him next Tuesday.
County Attorney English told the audi
ence why he ought to be re-elected. The
audience began to thin out during English's
talk.
A diversion much enjoyed by those who
stayed was a short talk by J. P. Kraus,
candidate for the legislature from South
Omaha. Mr. Kraus said: "I have got lots
of letters since I have been nominated,
and some of them are addressed to me as
Hon. J. P. Kraus. That shows how good
it is to be in this country. Americans send
their daughters to Europe to buy them a
