f"ie flrRt regular initiation night at the
Ak-gar-Hen den passed off lust evening
without any fatalities. Although several
barrels of eclat and other royal compounds
were opened, every Initiate was brought to
after powerful antidotes wese adminis
tered. It was a great snance; there Is no
getting around that. No one tried to get
around It. They could not get around It.
On the right of them, on the left of them,
on the front of thorn, on ths back of them,
all around them, were howling dervishes
and blood-thirsty Indians. "Let no guilty
man escape," was the slogan, and under the
leadership of Slgnor Iueaslona the poor
tenderfeet were given a merry chase. While
It would be lose mnjeste to divulge what
really did happen to the unfortunates, It
would be no breach of confidence to say
they had several occasions to think of their
past sins.
Three hundred and eighty-two Is the
number now enrolled on the books at Sam
son's office. Most of this number were put
through last evening. Among them were
Major R. S. Wilcox, Dr. W. F. Mllroy, Joe
Harkcr, F. I Campbell, J. W. Thomas, E
Haiiey and H. K. Frederlckson, all of whom
were convinced that It Is not all of life to
live nor all of death to die.
A most pleaant feature of the occasion
was the presence of the Royal Canadian
band from Krug park. Under the leader
ship of J. M. Finn the new Ak-Kar-lien
march, composed by Prof. I'.cl, was ren
dered and made a decided hit. Various
other musical numbers were given during
the evening.

Savannah, Ga., Oct. 7, 1904.
For a long time I suffered Intensely from
what appeared to be a chronic case of
stomach trouble, which was accompanied
by all the pangs of Indigestion, constipa
tion, and dyspepsia. I tried several dif
ferent medicines In vain, and nothing did
me any good until I was advised to take
Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey. The first
bottle relieved my distress, and In a short
time I was cured. I consider your Pure
Malt Whiskey the best medicine In the
world for all diseases of the stomach and
digestive organs.

COMPETITION FOR CITY CAS
Rivalry Predicted bj Oomcilmen Who
Oppose ik Proposed Contr&ot.
AFFAIR LOOKED FOR TUESDAY NIGHT
Counrllmen Decline to Discuss All
Details on Grounds that It
Would Hot Be Busi
ness Policy.
Councllmen who oppose a '$M-rate and a
five-year contract for street gas lighting as
desired by the gas company say that com
petition for this service will be offered,
probably at the council meeting Tuesday
night. They decline to give out all the
facts on the ground that It Is nut good bus
iness policy to do so, but say an outside
firm in which Ohio men and capital are In
terested will offer to do the gas lighting at
a price per lamp annually between $-"0 and
$. The competing company has been
working on the scheme for months and pro
poses to buy gas from the local corporation
at commercial rates and still cut the
charges to the city from tb to JS under
what they are now, guaranteeing as good,
if not better, service. President Zlmman,
Councilman Nicholson and others of the
council have been aware of the possibility
of an offer of this kind for some time, but
have not seen fit to give out the Informa
tion. According to reports at the city hall the
gas company Is going right ahead with Its
plans to gather In the five-year con
tract, fueling sure of at least five votes
In the council. It Is given out that Vice
President Clubaugh has loaded himself up
with facts and figures by means of which
he proposes to make Zlmman's arguments
look very bad. Zlmman Is crammed to tho
muzzle with contrary figures, and If a
meeting In open committee or regular ses
sion Is brought about the Togo-KojeBt-
vensky affair will no longer hold the palm
for spirit, smoke and flame.
Mayor Moores won't go on record as to
what he will do with the gas contract If
It gets up to him. Under the new charter
all sach contracts must be made by ordi
nance, thus giving the people at least a
week to come In and make a noise, or do
other acts of protestation If they don't
like It. Things may pass off quietly Tues
day night, with explosions to follow during
the week and on the succeeding Monday
aft'. moon. The mayor, however, remains
serene and says he will deal with tho
proposition when It gets to him.

Last week the feeder trade at the stock

Only 5.167 head of stockers and feeders

was lighter than expected by live stock
dealers. Of the total receipts 8,451 head

TWELVE THOUSAND AT SHOW
People Crowd the IHg Tent and
Scores Are Turned Away
at Nltrht.
The management of Sells Bros. & Fore-
paugh's shows had put in several hun
dred extra reserved seats and Increased the
capacity of "blues." as the ordinaries a.j-3
called, but even this enormous capacity
was not sufficient for the demand made
upon it last night; at the opening perform
ance! It was, but last night people had to
be turned away. Press Agent Baker re
marked, incidentally, that for the turning
away to be done at the second perform
ance was not a bad commentary. From
the tremendous demonstrations of the vast
assemblages It must be concluded that the
popularity of the show Is a fixed quantity
In Omaha.
The three rings, two platforms and side
lines were kept constantly occupied, and
the man who didn't get his money's worth
fell asleep Just before the show began.

trained seals, elephants, horses and last,
but as strange as any, the Spanish bull of

toyed with the fancies and Imaginations
of those who tried to conceive how such
things could be.
Nothing could have been more Inspiring
than the artistic prelude to the main per
formance. Military of various nations en
tered to their respective national airs and
the unfurling of the flag of each; the Rus
sians were received with cheers and these
cheers deepened as the Japs followed, but
like a mighty storm these cheers swelled
Into a roaring as the troops of Uncle 8am
came marching In, Old Olory was unfurled
and the strains of the "Star Spangled Ban
ner" swelled forth. In the line of Ameri
can soldiers were the Blue and the Gray,
and as one feeble old veteran of the Army
of the North stepped out from his line and
greeted a hoary-headed soldier from tho
south the volume of the applause which
had but subsided again burst forth.

COST OF THE DUMONT TRACT
Twelve Thousand Dollars or Three
Hundred Dollars an
Acre.
Park Commissioner Cornish says the Du-
mont tract, lying between the southeast
boundaries of Rlverview park and the
river, will cost from 812,000 to 815,000, or
about $300 an acre. This Is his opinion, as
the land must be condemned and appraised
If the council follows the park board's
Idea that the tract should be acquired to
enlarge Rlverview park.
'It Is not so much that we need the
land to extend the park," says Commis
sioner Cornish, "as the fact that we must
get control of the property In some way
If we wish to prevent the possibility of Its
being occupied for railroad yards, tan
neries, factories or other Industrial pur
poses. Any ono of these would Injure
Rlverview as a park.
NEW KANSAS CITY EXCHANGE
National Board of Trade as Viewed
by Members of the Omaha
Board.
There Is conBlderablo talk about the grain
exchange and the offices of local commis
sion Arms about the newly established Na
tional Board of Trade at Kansas City, the
organization of which grew out of the re
cent supreme court decision forbidding
bucket shops to use the quotations of the
Chicago Board of Trade. The report Is that
two Omaha firms, said to have been denied
the right to the Chicago quotations, are to
be members of the new board of trade.
The general opinion expressed about the
local exchange Is that the new venture will
not prove much of a success. There is al
ready one established and recognized grain
exchange in Kansas City, keeping closely
In touch with Minneapolis and Cnrcago.
The traders say that another would not be
patronized except by those Arms who are
now branded as illegitimate concerns or
bucket shops. Such Arms In the various
cities of the west and south which will do
business with the new board are Inconsid
erable In number In comparison with those
using the Chicago quotations.
"Of course there will be no question of
legitimacy as long as the board uses quota
tions of Its own, which It claims It will do
1 with actual cash grain transactions at Kan
sas City as a basis," said a local broker.
Success with them Is merely a matter of
patronage. It is my opinion that they will
find It very difficult to absorb the existing
hoard of trade. Their evident assumption
Is that they might be able to do it, but
they cannot have any faith In the assump
tion. It will be Just as hard to establish
quotations independent of Chicago and Min
neapolis. The officers of the new organiza
tion, if they are quoted correctly, say that
Kansas City Is the largest primary grain
market of the world. Is not Minneapolis a
primary wheat market? Has not Omaha
handled but very little less grain In the last
four months than Kansas City? The Mis
souri town cannot hope to become a second
Chicago as far as grain quotations are concerned."

SAMUEL KREZLEMAN IS FINED
First Conviction I nder New Law of
Alder and Abetter of Thlev
Insl Boys.
Samuel Krezleman appeared before Judge
Day In the criminal court Monday morning
and pleaded guilty to aiding and abetting
half a dozen colored boys to steal oats
from a railroad car, which he bought. The
court, through an Interpreter, gave Krezle
man a scorching warning on the enormity
of his crime in urging young boys to steal
so that he might get their plunder for a
few cents. He had even furnished the
sacks and his only excuse was that he had
seen others do the same thing.
Attorney McCoy, for Krezleman, repre
sented to the court that the accused Is not
mentally bright, having met with an acci
dent which has affected his head. The
court took this fact Into consideration In
imposing a fine of 8100. It was ordered thst
Krezleman pay 810 of the fine at once and
the remaining $90 be suspended during good
behavior. The judge impressed on him
that this $9t tine will hang over him for
two years and can be enforced at any time
he sgaln transgresses the law within that
limit.

shadow of gloom which cannot be shaken off. Thousands of women
have found that the use of Mother's Friend during pregnancy roba
confinement of all pain and danger, and insures safety to life of mother
and child. This scientific liniment is a god-send to all women at tho
time of their most critical trial. Not only does Mother's Friend
carry women safely through the perils of child-birth, but its use
gently prepares the system for the coming event, prevents "morning
