EASTER SHOPPERS ARE BUSY Omaha Betailers Enjoy a Bush for Hew Spring Goods, HATS NOT THE ONLY THINGS ASKED FOR Ml Sorts of MerehandUe la In Demand and Many lluaera Come from Far .tnar to Trade at Ilia; Storea. Easter hats. Well, they are not wear ing thrm yet, but each woman of Omaha, If alio has not ulreudy purchast'd one, la In mad purHUlt of It. Her lfleul In this Btrunge creation called Easter hat, being an elusive rumcthing which la not easily recognized and less easily defined, it is not to be wondered at that she makes numerous trips to various stores. The men, ignorant brings that they are, anille pityingly at what they call her frivolity, but she, in turn smiles at their lack of wisdom, for site knows that on that eventful day which nmrkR thi itniniiri In Htvles. none will be greater admirers of her tlnery than those same scoffing men. Hut with or without wimn's approval, the hnt she must have, Jmd the hat she is hunting. jjl After watching the passing to and fro yesterday of women between the great re tail centers of the town, the mere man was bewildered. "If all these daughters of Eve 1 see on the streets today blossom out next Sunday week In Hunter bonnets," lio said, "what a beautiful garden of color this prosaic old city will be." Foolish man, to use the word "if." Does he not know it will require an opening of the flood-gates of hoaven to keep one woman In tho house on the great day? Another thought came forcibly to Ills mind. It was that disagreeable weather will not quiet a woman's Inherent love for shopping sufllclently to keep her away from the beautiful things In the shops. All day through chill winds and spits of snow, she was present on Sixteenth street In num bers. Kvrrythlns to the Limit. Here Is a thing which femininity will be Interested In knowing. More Easter hats are being sold this year than ever before, more spring suits, ntore everything in wheh tho heart of woman delights. The proprietors of tho big stores, which have prospered well ever since the first of the years, are more than pleased with the tni6 of the lust week. Not only Is every wonmn in Omaha buying a hat. but she is buying one more beautiful and more ex peimlve than that of last year. Hut then, the. has a very pretty stock of material from which to select,' The colors and varied shapes of the new spring styles lire a consideration which make It very difficult for her to choose one hat; she earns for several. Of course hats are not the only things of Interest, and they era not the only articles which have a large sale. The entire Easter trade Is very satisfactory to the merchants. This week will be a very busy one with them. It is significant of general prosperity that large numbers of people living within a radius of 150 miles have come to Omaha in tho last two weeks to'do their shopping. They came last year nnd for years be fore, but not so many as now. It Is no uncommon thing to see a party of six or more women together In a. shop, all from the same small town. One reason given for tho large trade Is the fact that Easier is late this year and the purchase of spring goods 13 quite seasonable. There will be no chance of rushing the season. Easter Hemlndera Are Numerous. At the book stores pretty cards and books especially for Easter are finding a good sale. The card most in demand for favors is in the shape of a large egg, with hund paluted chickens, rabbits or Easter mottoes. It is beautiful and comparatively inexpen sive. Little folders, bound in ribbon, ex pressing some appropriate thought in verse, are popular. Tho prevailing colors are purple and white. Eor the children there is a great variety of eggs, rabbits and chickens. Sumo of the daintiest toys that can be imagined are on the counters. There are whole nests full of little downy chicks, there are hens that walk and rabbits that hop. Then, of course, the child can find the usual rabbits and chickens of candy. There is no reason why he should not be a happy child this Easter. MILLER BUYS THE MILLARD Leasee Becomes Owner of the Hotel and Will Farther Improve Its Service. Home Miller has bought the Millard hotel. He has been In possBssio.i of the house since midnight January 31, l'J03, on a two years' lease. The transfer was really agreed on last Monday, but the signing of the papers waiting the arrival Friday of W. 1.. Dedchant of Mlddletown, O., who represented the Sorg estate, owners of tho property. Since Mr. Miller went In two years ago he hus Improved the condition of the hotel very much and it Is announced he will in future add much to Its equipment, among other things putting telt phones in every room. The management of the house and Its chuJi'.cter will not be changed. The Millard has changed hands several times. It was built In 1SS1 by an associa tion composed of J. IT. Millard, (ieorge Glacomrhl, Thomas Bwobe, J. E. Markel and Samuel 8. Phears. The cost was f:S(),000. The ground was leased for ninety-nine years from the I'. J. Sorg estate. The house was opened in August, 1SS2. under the management of Messrs. Shears, Markel & Swobe. The hotel was a paying invest ment while everything else was, but when hard times came the lessees were unable to pay the rent and it went to the Sorg estate. In 1S Messrs. Markel & Swobe absorbed the Interest of Mr. Shears. Shortly after Mr. Market sold out and Captain Swobe ran the house until he entered the army In 180!. J. E. Markel & Sons were the next landlords. In 1D01 a suit began between the owners and lessees, which was not concluded until January, 1903, at which time It was decided to close the house. Mr. Miller entered the breach and has since made the hotel a paying property. O'GRADY GETS HIS RIBS BROKEN Driver for Windsor Stables Badly Hurt aa Reanlt of Runaway at Funeral. Fatrick O'Grady, a driver for the Vlndsor stables, had three ribs and his left arm broken nnd was otherwise in jured, near Forest Lawn cemetery yester day afternoon. He had taken two men and a woman to the cemetery and they had just stepped from the carriage when the horses took fright and suddenly broke Into a gallop. O'Orady was standing near the door of the carriage with the lines in his hands. He held to the lines as long as he could keep his feet, but tho loose ends wrapped themselves around hl9 legs Just 09 the horses swerved to one side, and he was thrown violently to the street under the wheels of the carriage. The linos broke ns the. wheels passed over him. He was knocked unconscious. The driver of an other carriage nearby came to O'Grady's relief nnd, with tho assistance of some other men, he placed the unconscious man in his carriage and took him to the Central hospital. O'Orady was still unconscious when they arrived at the hospital. Examination dis closed that his left arm was broken and three ribs, but the surgeons could not ac curately determine what additional Injuries he hud sustained for several hours after wards, when ho became conscious and able to tell something about himself. It was at first feared that he had been seriously Injured internally, but aside from a se vere shaking up and a number of bruises no additional wounds of a serious charac ter were found. His condition is not con sidered dangerous. ; , The team ran for a considerable dis tance and finally plunged Into a small grove of trees, and the Impact was such ! that the carriage was completely wrecked. The horses were then secured. They were not hurt.

The fireman escaped by jumping. The suit was filed In Douglas county, February 3, 1U05, and Is now transferred to the United States court. GREEN SUITS MYTH Omaha Men May Expect More Conner, vatlve Shades for the Com Inn Season. "Who has been spreading the rumor that green suits were to be the fashion this fall?" This was the question tflut Samuel Block of the firm of B. Roths-child & Co. of Ro chester, N. Y., has been asking In Omaha Saturday. Mr. Block Is a partner In the firm of B. Rothschild & Co. of Rochester, N. Y., and lie has come to Omaha to be present at the sale of the Rothschild stock of mens' clothing at the Brandels store. "Ever since I have come from my Euro pean trip I have been asked about the bright green suit nnd Its bid for popular ity during next season," said Mr. Block. "Everywhere In the west men have been looking for an edict of fashion from Pari to the effect thnt nothing but green suits will be fashionable for the next season. "Let me tell you that the tales of green suits are myths. The popular color In mens' suits for fall Is grey the confed erate grey, silver grey and gun metal are the leading shades both on the continent and in America for the next season. Green Is a freak color and will not be popular." Mr. Block Is In Omaha tin a personal representative of the firm of B. Roths child & Co of Rochester, N. Y., during the sale of the firm's excess stock at J. L. Brar.dels & Sons.

"I merely say that I am sur prised at the wonderful success that has attended the sale at Brandels' nnd I can testify that never to my knowledge has a sale of a surplus stock of clothing been attended with such Interest as this one. It has been one of the most successful selling events I ever witnessed." Driver I'nder the Wheels.

Ilurlng ull of tliut time It employs Im mense apimnittiH nnd skill and care. At the end of two weeks, we Kt't one cubic inch of Liquozone for each l.'J.r0 cttliic Inches of gas ued. This process, has, for more than 'JO yours, been the constant subject of scien tific atid chemical research. The object is to take pises which are germicides, tonics, nerve foods and Mood foods, and to condense their virtues Into ilijuid, Ktalile form. The main result Is to gvt into a liquid, and thus into the blood, a powerful yet harmless germicide. And the product is so helpful so good for you under any condition that even a well person feels Its Instil nt benefit. Llqllo7.ohe Is not made, like medicine, by compounding acids and drill's; nor is there nny alcohol In it. Its virtues are derived solely from pas, made In larne part from the best oxygen producers. Nothing but khs enters into It. Used the World Over. miring tho past two years this re markable product hits sprung Into world wide use In the treatment of germ dis eases It is used more generally than tiny remedy ever used before. Millions of homes in America know from experience what Llquussoue can do. One home In five wherever you go has some one whom Lhjuozone has cured. And In numberless homes where Liquo zone is daily used, sickness has been almost banished. , Hut there are millions of others who don't know I.ltpio.one yet. Many still cling to medicine fur what medicine can not do. Many remain sick without knowing how easy It Is to get well. We publish this olTcr for them. Your own neighbors your friends can tell you what I.lUozoiic has done. IMcaso ask them about It. Then try (o believe that what It has done for millions It is liound to do for you. Ask us for a buttle to try. I'lcuao learn, at our expense, what this wonderful product menus to you. Then, for the good of all, tell others uhout it. as others will tell you. We Paid $100,000 For the American rights to Liquozone and the rights in other countries have sold for proportionate sums. We men tion this fact to Indicate the value of Liquozone the value to you. Men have never before paid such a price for any discovery used In the cure of sickness. We need not tell you that we proved Liquozone well before buying it. Kor years It was tested through physicians and hospitals, in this country und others. It was employed in every stuge of every germ disease- In all the most difficult cases obtainable. With thousands of sick ones, considered Incurable, we proved that It did what medicine could not do. Then, and then only, did we pay the price. Since then we have spent nearly I?2.ikki,(HN) to make Liquozone known. We have bought the first liottle and given It free to every sick one we learned of. These people told others and the others told others. The result is .that Liquozone is now more widely employed than any medicine ever was. And no one can doubt that It is doing more for the sick humanity than all the drugs lu use combined. Kills Inside Germs. The greatest value of Liquozone lies In the fact that It kills germs in the Isidy without kllliiiK the tissues, too. Anil no man knows another way to do it. Any drug that kills germs is a poi son, ami it cannot be taken Internally, For that reason medicine Is almost help less In any germ disease. Liquozone Is a germicide so cert iln that we publish on every bottle an offer of ?l.tNHi for a disease germ that it can not kill. Yet It Is not only harmless, but of wonderful benefit better than any thing else in the world for you. No one I Is so well thut he caunot be helped by it. The reason Is that germs are vege tables, and Liquozone like an excess of oxygen is deadly to vegetal matter. To the human body Liquozone Is exhilar ating, vitalizing, purifying the most needful, the most helpful thing possible. Hut to germs it is certain destruction, and these facts ure true of nothing else in existence. Germ Diseases. These are the known germ diseases, all due to germs or to the poisons which germs create. These are the diseases to which medicine does not apply, for drugs cannot kill Inside germs. All that medicine can do for these troubles is to act as a tonic, aiding na ture to overcome the germs. Hut those results are Indirect and uncertain, de pending on the patient's condition. A cure is always doubtful when drugs are used, rnd some of these diseases medi cine never cures. Liquozone has amply proved Its power to destroy the cause of these troubles. Kvery disease In this list has been cured with It so often that we have come to believe that results are almost Inevit able, our faith in the product Is so great that In any of these diseases no matter how dillicult we gladly send to every patient who asks for It, a guaran tee, covering .1 two months' test.
