Harry O. Fink Friday mornrns; was sen tenced to sis month! In the state peniten tiary by Judtr Redick for the theft of sev eral tickets from the Union raclllo railroad at North Dend. The tickets wore disposed ft In Omaha, Fink realising about $1 Fink was sentenced under a statute whlci la peculiar In some respects. It was passed on demand of the railroads for Just such cases as this. A man convicted under It may set AS high as ten years In the peni tentiary, but no minimum sentence is pro vided. , When Flnk appeared In court to plead KUllty County Attorney Slabauah explained everal charges wire pending, all for the, san offense. On consideration of the pris onous willingness to plead guilty he was willing: to recommend a sentence of one year, with' the possibility of a parole. James P. English, speaking for Flnk. called the court's attention1 to the peculiarity of the statute; also that In Nebraska to be guilty of grand larceny the property taken must be of the value of 1J3. Ho said it was clearly within the discretion of tha court to Impose the shortest sentence possible under the law. which might be one day or one morith. Mr. English lold tha court that Flnk had not stolen the tickets to net money to gamble or to drink, but for the purpose of buying medicine for his wife, who Is an Invalid. Mrs. Flnk was In onurt and very deeply affected by tha position of her husband. Judge Redick questioned the prisoner closely and Imposed the sentence to Lin coln. Ha said he would ba willing to recom mend to the, governor that Flnk be allowed to serve his sentence In tha Pouglas county Jail.

A building nay be put up this fall, but on account of the fact that tha season would be very late by the time a deal could ba carried through and plana drawn this Is not prob able. John L. McCague of the McCague Invest ment company, which has the rental of the property, said that If a building Is not erected this fall one Swill certainly be put up In the spring. He Is In touchwlth a number of firms which desire to obtain a leaso on suitable quarters at thla location, and some of them, especially one from an other olty. Is very eager. It la expected that arrangements soon will be made for a building, even though it may not be erected until spring. The property Is sixty-six feet on Farnam street and reaches back 132 feet to the alley. At' present It Is occupied by several old one-story buildings.

Her Is still trying to get the city government Interested In some of the various Industries he proposes to bring to Omaha and he has just sunt this letter to the mayor and council: I have petitioned your honorable body several times In the post regarding the removal of the garbage barn on the east end of Leavenworth street, and in re sponse to these petitions yott have prom ised that It should be removed. At a com mittee meeting held lust fall Mr. A. B. Hunt was present and agreed to remove this barn, but tried to have nie pay 3i) for doing so, which I refused to do, as the barn would not bring to exceed 50. Now If this barn cannot be removed by your honorable body, kindly outline for me the course which I must pursue to have it done. If Mr. Hunt holds all the Improve ments In the city In his hands I would like to know it, and )f J muHj see him before going before the council X will try and do so. I have been negotiating with a very large manufacturing concern . which will locate a large plant either In Omaha, South Omaha, Council Bluffs, Fremont or Sarpy City. I offered them In the presence of Mr. A. L. Mohler of the I'nlon Pacific not to exceed ten eeres of land In Sarpy City, connected with .tlve of the different rail roads, for nothing provided they would lo cate their plant there. I also tried to ne gotiate with them on "my ground either north or south of the Union Pacific bridge In Omaha. The other manufactory referred to In my communication to you of May t, 1W6, in which I asked your honorable body to vacate a part of Second street between Hickory street and Woolworth avenue, has written me today asking If 1 have se cured ground enough for their yard and material and got ready for operation. This Is a large manufacturing concern which will employ possibly fromflfty to 100 men at the start and be enlarged as buslneti.1 demands. Their business Is the manu facture of radiators. In which they use three-quarters scrap Iran and one-quarter pig Iron, thus saving the freight on the scrap Iron o the east and on the finished Product to the west. If I cannot locate hem on that property by reason of not getting land enough for them I will locate them In Sarpy City, where I have already located two other large manufacturing plants. As Sarpy county taxes are nominal compared with Douglas county, I find It much easier to locate ttiem there than In Omaha. I hope your honorable body will look at these matters In the right light and give this matter your Immediate attention. It Is of great Interest to the city to get factories located here and you cunnot do too much to aid In getting thein Into Omaha, which Is necessary In order to build up a great city. S-400 IMASO GIVEN AWAY. Miss Mary Mlkesell of lOO Scott St., Council Bluffs, tbe Lucky Person. When the Schmoller & Mueller Piano Co. adopted their one-price system, they In troduced a unique plan of advertising, which has brought them splendid results. The idea was to give away a Steger piano absolutely free. This scheme was con summated Thursday evening, when Miss Mary Mikesell was awarded the piano, the winning number being 2.9V9. The conditions under which the Instru ment was given away were as follows: Any one who was not already the owner of a piano was entitled to go to the store and register his, or her name and address, for which a number was received. The company retained a duplicate of each number Issued. No one who was con nected with the firm In any way was per mitted to register. Only one registration Was allowed to a family. The method by which the drawing was conducted was one which could xnot be otherwise than emi nently fair. Mr. Ernest James of The Omaha Bee had charge of the drawing and waa as sisted by Mr. II. B. Randall. 20 North 20th St., and Mr. J. Edward Keys, 1714 Douglas St. Miss Stella Barker, a 10-year-old girl, who came to the store with her father, was chosen to select the numbers from a box, which contained all the duplicate numbers. The plan waa to make the thir teenth number drawn from the box the lucky one. There were four additional numbers drawn, so that In rase the person holding the thirteenth number was not eligible, ac cording to the rules, the first of the fol lowing four. If eligible, would be the win ner. This precaution was taken In order to avoid another drawing. Regardless of the fact that little Miss Barker wore a blindfold, she succeeded In drawing the duplicate of her father's number on the fifteenth trial. Mr. It. B. Randall, who assisted In conducting the drawing, had a very narrow escape, as before the plan waa decided upon defin itely. It was talked of making the eleventh umber the lucky one, and Mr. Randall's number waa the eleventh number drawn. There was positively no consideration re quired. This piano waa awarded to the lucky person absolutely free. Uarry B. Davis, undertaker. Tel. 1& In a Whist-ful Tose. BEGS FOR POOR RICH MOTHER Yonna. Woman Writes to Chief for Help In Locating Her Wealthy Mamma. A ycung woman giving her name as Lea lah Franklin has written to Chief of Po lice Donahue with a view to loqntlng her mother, thought to be wealthy and a resi dent of Nebraska. Miss Franklin says she was kidnaped by a showman or woman many years ago and is now anxious to be restored to her parents. Her letter follows: ST. LOL'IS, July 13, 1906. Chief of Police Dear Sir: Please excuse the privilege I have taken to write to you, as- I thought you might be kind enough to help me tind my heart-broken mother. I waa kidnaped some nineteen or twenty years back and taken away, and never knew until my foster mother told me I was not her child She Is dead now and I was shipped all over the world. I would be very hdppy to hear of my own mother, as she Is wealthy. I was told she had a large farm In Nebraska. Her name is White or Whltener. Maybe you remember a woman who was arrested out there some fifteen or eighteen years bark. She was the woman who stole me, but I was too little at the time and could not remember my own mother. Oh, I trust God will Kive me the power to find mother, as I feel for her to think she had to suffer such sorrow these long years back. I must find my own name and who I am. I am now 20 years old, have no living relatives in St. Ix)uls, so 1 trust you will look into It, and maybe can find what the report was out there some years back. I must have been u very sittle girl at the time I waa stolen by a showwoman or man. I have chestnut hair, blue eyes, quite tall, and I trust you will help me. I know If my mother Is wealthy siiewould repay you for your trouble, also I would thank you. Hoping to be of some service In the future for your kindness to a poor girl. My name is Lealah Franklin that is the name 1 went by. Please let me hear from you. Will send one of my pictures If you think It would help you to Identify me. Have one when I was a little girl of 4 yens old and one at 19 years. Do please help me, for God's sake. I know how my poor mother must have grieved all these years, so I will enclose stamp and puper and address. I remain, yours obligingly, LEALAH FRANKLIN. Starving.

Omaha, Neb. j frOTlwr-Vry YOBT-Oooner 8? wot Farmers all over the state are beginning to get Interested In Tom Worrall's suit to break up the alleged grain trust and reports have reached Omaha that they are pre paring in various sections for a united ef fort to take up the matter themselves. It Is said that a number ,of petitions are In circulation among grain producers de manding that Attorney General Norrls Brown Institute action under the anti-trust laws against the Nebraska Grain Dealers' association and Ita members. These peti tions are to be presented to the attorney general within a short time. The latter already has copies of nearly ail the papers and some, If not all, the testimony taken In the Worrall case. This Information was not given out by Mr. Worrall or his law yers, but was brought to Omaha by a maji who has been out over the state doing business with the farmers. Brady Joins Worrall. Mr. Worrall, however, haa received a let ter from ez-State Senator ames T. Brady of Albion, secretary of the Farmers' Co operative Grain and Live Stock State as sociation, the fuslonlst who introduced an elevator bill In the 1903 legislature. In which he pledges the support of the organization to Worrall In his fight on members of the association and states that the board of directors, composed of J. S. Canady of Mlndcn, D. J. Gates of Albion, D. W. Raker of Benedict, H. II. Hanks of Nebraska City, L. S. Deets of Kearney, Jacob Ehlers of Gretna and James T. Brady, have held several meetings to discuss the subject. Information came by telephone Friday morning that the board had decided to as sess a fund of 110.000 and perhaps $30,000 on Its members to take up the fight against the association. Resolutions were passed taking a stand on the matter and It was stated that these resolutions and the pro ceedings of the meeting at Minden July IT will be given to the principal newspapers of the state. The farmers' association was organized In 1903 and claims to have something oyer 4,000 members scattered all over the agri cultural sections of the state. Its osten sible object Is to protect the producer against monopolies In the markets for his goods and to keep alive competition, among merchants and receivers and prevent trusts and combinations. The organization at present Is made up of 103 locals, thirty of these locals comprising elevator associa tions, each of which owns and operates an Independent elevator. J. S. Candy Is pres ident of the association; L. S. Deets, vice president; James T. Brady, secretary, and O. G. Smith of Kearney treasurer. Indite Muitaer'e Position. Mr. Worrall's lawyers have not made much progress In the federal courts toward getting their case remanded to the state district court. It Is reported that Judge Munger of the federal bench will refuse to hear the case, because he la a brother-in-law of Mr. Fowler of the Nye-Schnelder-Fowler Grain company, having married Fowler's sister, and. In addition, Is a stockholder In this company, which Is one of the defendants. So far as known, the farmers don't know yet whether they want, a criminal or civil prosecution against the ' association. There is aome talk of demanding S00,OU0 damagea. The state anti-trust laws Contain a clause about grain dealers. Penalties for viola tions of the law for officers, agents, etc., of corporations Involved are fines ranging from $1,000 to $&,000 and Imprisonment in the penitentiary from one to two years. The Worrall fight haa progressed far enough to cause certain t of Mr. Worrall's enemies to suggest that It may some day furnish the basis for a political fight in Nebraska. Mr. Worrall himself is an orig inal Bryan democrat and his friend. Brady from Albion Is an original populist, who also has supported Mr. Bryan In season and out ef season. While the Worrall people persistently deny the allegation that poli tics haa anything to do with this affair and for proof of their contentions cite the fact that both their attorneys, A. W. Jef ferls and F. 8. Howell, are prominent re publicans, they have some critics who are skeptical enough to adhere to the political Idea, Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.
