GIRLS SHOCK MAYOR ZIMMAN Telephone Maids Defy the Storm with Most Surprising Impunity. RACE ABOUT WITH NO HEAD COVERING A Group ot Tales. Grave and Other wise, Setting Forth Experiences Durlnur the Stormy Weather Nebraska Has Had. "The usual run of applications for relief from distress caused by the cold weather have been corning into this office for the last six weeks," says Acting Mayor Zlm toan. "But nono of them has been much out of the ordinary. The majority have been referred to the county authorities, who, I .understand, are taking ample care of the Indigent. "The thing that has caused ms the great est anguish of mind during the cold weather, however, is an occrrence that 1 witness a number of times every day by simply looking out of the window onto eighteenth street. The telephone building 1 on Eighteenth and Douglas, and about a block away on Farnam street is a deli catessen store, where the hello girls buy things for their lunch. Now these girls must be either thu hardiest and healthlent persons in Omaha, or else they are absent on sick leuve hulf the time, for they run the block twice without anything on their heads and sometimes without even a wrap around their shoulders. Apparently they rely on their pompadours in front and their whte combs Inset with Jewels behind to protect their hends, nose, ears, throat and lungs from the cold. "Day after day, as I watch them passing to and from amid other pedestrians bun dled to the ears and with steam pouring from the unfortunate horses that have to be out, I wonder how they can do it. It is actually preying on my mind, and If the girls don't stop it I am going to draw the shades and keep them down." t Close Call for a Doctor. Apropos of the cold weather, Secretary Burgess of the school board says: "The narrowest escape from freezing to deuth that I have heard about this winter was told by, an Omaha man who lute a cousin who Is a doctor out In the state. Saturday night, while driving home from a call on a lonely road in an uninhabitable stretch of territory, the doctor's horse ran away and threw the man alongside the road. The doctor's back was wrenched so that he could not move. Ha lay there, yelling now and then, and wondering how much agony he would suffer before losing con sciousness and freezing to death. Just as he was about despairing of help a sleigh was driven in sight andj he was picked up. The chances are that 'not another per son came that way that night." .Vegetable Peddlera Missed. License Inspector Scott says that the long period of cold has caused the fruit and vegetable peddlers to lose heavily. Since January 1 few of them have at tempted to ply their trade because their wares would freeze before they could be sold. On the few days In the month when the mercury went above zero the banana men and a few other of the braver spirits tried to do a little business, but the most of the time has been spent loafing in the commission district, vainly hoping for a thaw. Besides affecting the peddlers, their absence has worked hardships on many a poor family that has had to send a mem ber to the nearest grocery and buy vege tables at higher prices. Michaelson as Good Samaritan. "I have come through the cold snap pretty well so far," says City Electrician Mlchaelsen. "The most pathetic case that has come under my observation happened one night when I was down town. A drunken laborer, accompanied by his little daughter, . a child of about 10, was going from saloon to saloon buying more liquor. The child was. crying and trying to get her father to go home. She was very cold and frightened. I followed them Into a saloon and sat her on a radiator to thaw out and learned that they had come up from South Omaha with $5 to pay lodge. dues. The father would not go home, so I placed her on a car for home, called the patrol wagon and had the drunken man locked up. I was afraid they would both freese to death if allowed to wander around." Elbonrn's Pet Saecambed. City Clerk Elbourn, who , captured all moneys with the tale of the pet butterfly cruising around In his home and laughing at the snow outside, promised Monday night to bring the beast to the city hall and give an exhibition in order to sus tain his well known, reputation for veracity. He reported yesterday), however, with a tear In his eye, that Theoutterfly had flown against a cold window. 'became numb and helpless, fallen to the floor and there perished Ignobly 'neath the heel of El bourn, Junior, who was not aware that his pet had hit the mat. The clerk hus offered to produce the captive dead, but this wl(l not appease the demands of the doubters.

Gas Inspector Lynch was crying "cuss, cuss, cuss'" Monday and tha arrows of his wrath were pointed toward the local rep resentative of the Wolabach Street Light lng company of America, which has the contract for keeping the gasoline lights in the suburbs aglow at 30 each per year. Mr. Lynch avers that the cold and the snow has had a bad effect on the lamp lighters and that many of the lamps were not aglow when citizens who pay taxes de sired them greatly to help them avoid snow drifts and to assist them in keeping in the main channel or where the road or walk ought to be. Mr. Lynch has had the local representative upon the carpet and thinks that future performance will lm prove. No Snap for Marshals. "The lot of a United States deputy mar shal isn't so much of a snap aa one would think, especially during such a winter as this," said Deputy Marshal John Sides. "In summoning witnesses for the Larsen bootlegging case I had to drive across country over forty miles In two or three Instances. Sometimes we drove twenty miles across the snow where you couldn't see a sign of a road, cow path or trail of any kind except a rabbit or coyote track. The awful whiteness of the snow almost blinds you, and then the cold Is Just simply ternnie. But we bad to go. The Indians are better fixed for winter up there than one would think. They have plenty of feed and fuel and do not go out of their houses much. As a rule the cold does not bother them much anyhow. They know how to keep warm where a white man would freeze. Moving the Malls. "While the cold weather and snow drifts have caused all sorts of trouble to the malls, we have managed to get them through fairly well," said Chief Clerk H. F. Spearer of the railway mail service "The fast mall trains have been running reguiariy, oui on almost any kind of time. The train service was a little worse today on account of the wind piling drifts on the tracks, but none of the mall trains has been, abandoned because of the storms. The employes of the railway postal service are hanging onto their work like heroes and we have no reports of any suffering among them from the cold or storms while out on the road. The postal cars are In variably warm and comfortable and very little inconvenience occurs from cold or storms to the clerks while on the trains." Dundee Mldroaders. Assistant United States District Attorney Rush, who lives out in Dundee, says the Dundee folks have became ."middle of the roaders" this winter. "The snow Is too much for the sidewalks, so we Just simply take to the road and street car tracks out there. The Dundee street car line has not been blockaded to any extent by the snow this winter, and we have been having fair service, better, I think, than moat parts of town. I do not think the snow has drifted as badly out about Dundee as nearer down town." Silence a Chicago Man.' John W. Griffith, purchasing agent for the Union Pacific, tells this cold weather story: "A Chicago man was In my office on Monday and was croaking about what he believed to be the abominable weather of the Gate City. 'Just let me get an evening train out of this place and I will shake the Omaha snow from my shoes and will never, nevcr-r-r return,' said to visi tor. Mr. Griffith was silent for a minute and then offered the Windy City man a morning paper from his home town and directed his attention to a report of the extreme cold pi u vailing la Chicago; of DEPUTY STAU'E VETERINARIAN.

He asked Mr. Griffith If he knew of a neat little cottage for sale within easy walking distance to the post office, as he wm'cil to settle here. 'I will never again c .ain- of Omaha weather. I enjoy it." " Painted with Snow. An extremely beautiful effect was pro duced by the wind and snow between 7 and 8 yesterday morning on the north and east fronts of the federal building. Clouds of fine snow were hurled against the big building by the wind, veritably painting It a lustrous white, resembling In all respects a colossal, white marble temple. When the wind abated and the sun came out the reflection of the brilliant sunlight upon the snow-painted structure was blinding In its dazzling whiteness and beauty. The spectacle was viewed by thousands of people and remained visible for nearly an hour, when the Increasing warmth of the sunlight caused the snow to gradually' vanish from the walls. Tom Boyd's Water Pipes. Tom Boyd, chief 'clerk in the office of the county assessor, about nine years ago built himself a house, 3938 North Twentieth street, that he has felt a Justifiable pride in for all the time since. It has been warm and comfortable, and at no time has there even been a hint of freezing water pipes. But Mr. Boyd had reckoned with out keeping in mind the capacity for nils chief of Father Winter in his angriest moods. Sunday the pipe leading to the bath room In the Boyd residence did freeze, but fortunately the master of the house was at home. When the plastering began to show signs of the fast flowing water overhead Mr. Boyd got busy. Ho forgot the shutoft cock that was handy to h'j reach In the kitchen and started on s run for the cellar. As fate invariably decrees In such cases, he ran Into and over everything in the cellar between the foot of the stairs and the place where the water viB . shut off. A long ladder was re clining right where U had no business being at that particular time. He van quished It after a brief struggle, without knowing or caring whether he went under It or over It. When he did get the water shut off Mr. Boyd felt that ho had fought a good fight successfully, even if his shins did ache like a tooth that Is gone to the bad. He is willing to admit that this win- YOUR GRAY HAIR Gray Hslr Is Be NOT WANTED -WES But there it relief from it In Four Day it can be Restored To Its Natural Color by using I Hair Restorer It Is not a dye, but la natural way It acts on the roots, compelllnz tha secretion of the pigments that five life and color to the hair In tour days 1 1 a bottle, at all druggist.

While the plumber was at work in Mr. Boyd's home Monday morning a frightened woman was seen flying over the snow be tween his house and a neighbor's. The woman fell exhausted at the door, and when it was opened only stopped long enough to say the water was flooding her house. Then she raced home again. The plutober followed and shut off the water, butlnot before It had caused considerable damage. In her first excitement the woman, who was ill and alone when the accident happened, had opened the sill cock and flooded the yard as well as the Interior of the house. Accidents like these in well built and well heated houses have been unknown in Omaha for a dosen years or more. INDIAN SUPPLY DEPOT SAFE Commercial Club Members Confident the Appropriation Will Be Hade by Congress. Omaha business men do not seem very much alarmed over the announcement that the senate subcommittee has stricken out the appropriation of $10,000 for the mainte nance of the Omaha Indian supply depot. President Wright of the Commercial club smiled when shown the paper and said: What, again? Well, we will have to take that up at the meeting today and go after those fellows. We can'X lose our sup ply depot, for it means much to Omaha Jobbers. But I think we need not tiave much fear of such an outcome." Commissioner McVann considers there will be little difficulty In getting Omaha reinstated along with Bt. 'Louis when the appropriation bill comes before the full committee. Senator Millard has expressed his belief that ha could get the measure safely through the full committee, as he has pledges from the members. The offi cials of the Commercial club express con fidence In his ability. Commissioner Mc Vann points out that the appropriation sheet aa amended will have to go back Anally to tha house, and the house will not pass it with the alterations, one of which is tha withdrawal of support for tha Omaha depot. It la pointed out by Omaha shippers that the closing of the Omaha and the St. Louis depots la the work of the railroads. They want these places closed becauae of the greater amount of hauling from the Chi- ragq depot to the places of consumption. With the western depots Omaha and St. Louis jobbers can bid for aupplies and do get a large part of the contracts. Hut with DR. BRADBURY 1606 FARNAfl.
