A lit of ( mlmit SuU. ., IHuWMl. 1.; FIVE) LEGS ARb HIGH SPIRITS Frea.lt Horse Will Be One of Blg Featarei, featured on the official program of the Ak-Bar-Ben festival, the five-legged horse owned by George Townley of Omaha ap parently has become deeply Impressed with his own Importance. He Is already wearing the blue ribbon of popularity, so to speak. Because of his peculiar con struction the animal Is highly nervous at times. He has been undergoing a course of treatment at a local livery barn to break him of his high-strung antics. One method adopted to make him unafraid of people approaching from behind has been to hang a bag- of sand from the celling at the opening to his stall and allow him to biff it with his hind feet until he grew disgusted. He Anally realised that he was kicking to no advantage and now the bag of sand can be swung against him without making him do more harm than turn his head to see who Is doing it. But Lovely Legg, as the animal Is called by his owner and groom, has other troubles. His extra pedal appendage some times gets in his way, especially when he goes to drink from a large trough and tries to do an acrobatlo stunt on the edge thereof; for it must be understood that the five-legged equine is still half un broken. At such times he Is prone to swing the fifth leg around In a way to make people itand off and duck. Monday afternoon Lovely Legg In some manner got himself tangled up in the front length of a long lariat by which he is fastened. Afraid, apparently, that If he let his fronk feet down he would lose his principal claim to distinction, the animal aat straight up on his hind quarters and threatened to fall over backwards. After much coaxing and no result. It was de cided to rig a windlass arrangement to bring the three front feet down to the floor again. This was accomplished after Lovely Legg had exhausted every trick known to a stubborn horse. He persisted in rearing so much, however, that it was thought the extra leg had been hurt. An examination by a veterinarian proved this not to be the case, and on his advice the stout boards were rigged Just over the animal's shoulders. Now Lovely Legg Is quite contented again, and looks for all the world like a prise package which is guarded from vandal hands by railings and things. "Just cusaed uppishneaa," says the boy who cares for the five-legged curiosity. "Wy, one day th' fool hoss tried to t'row tb' extry one aroun' me neck; an' 'a would a done It, too, ony I sidestepped 'lm. 'E'a a bloomln' fool w'en 'Is sperrlts rises, dat's all." FIRE BEATS MAYOR TO IT Flamei Destroy Property in Horns While Apparatus is Being fought. UTTER PARTLY SECURED IN OMAHA While Chief Kxecatlve Cornea to Statea for Fire Fighting; Plant Blaaea Destroy Bis tore Bnlldlnga. It is a peculiar circumstance that while on a trip to the United States to buy fire apparatus and contract for a water plant for the city of Nome. Alaska, Mayor King of that faraway place has been called from Omaha to return on account of a telegram announcing a disastrous lire at Nome, In which Ore Mr. King's grocery store was totally destroyed. Mayor King Is now on his way to Nome. He was In Omaha visit ing his wife and daughter, who are unable to stand the Alaskan climate.. Inasmuch as there la no fire protection In Nome no fire Insurance is carried, which means Mayor King's loss Is considerable, The installation of a city water plant at Nome means that steam pipes must be placed alongside the water pipes to keep the water from congealing. The pipes are placed under the sidewalks in that part of the world and every time a hydrant la used the water Is pumped out after the main is turned off. Mayor King stopped on his way east at Seattle and closed a few deals for the work he was sent to do. SPECIAL THAIS FOR PARADES Railroads Make Schedolee to Ac commodate the Visitors. 8everal special trains will be run on all of the railroads centering In Omaha on the night of the big parade, October 5.

The regular mid-week matinee at the Orpheum will be given Thursday after noon. Among the varied features there are several that will especially Interest the women, who are always ready to enlist their attention upon the beauty, talent or fine raiment of members of the fair sex The two women this week who are attract ing attention are Cellna Bobe, the Parisian xylophone and violin virtuoso and Blgnorlna Verera, the young Italian singer. Each comes from a different country In Europe and In addition to their musical accomplish ments each dlitplays little mannerisms peculiar to their country that rather In' terest the American. This afternoon at the Boyd theater, "The Forbidden Land" will be presented at matinee. This pretty comic opera has been having a decided success on this. Its second visit to Omaha. It will continue at the theater until after Thursday night On Friday night Mr. Tim Murphy will be seen at the Boyd, offering his new comedy, "A Corner in Coffee," a dramatization by Owen Davis of the novel by Cyrus Townsend Brady. This has been pronounced the best thing Mr. Murphy has ever had in the way of a play. Last Thursday afternoon saw one of the most fashionable of matinee audiences at the Burwood theater, and It la expected thst the experience will be repeated tomorrow, for the women of Omaha have soon found out that this theater offers an especially attractive place to see a good play pre sented by a fine company. "A Royal Family" is making a great success this week. An Indication that . the date for the Omeha Horse Show Is approaching was the request received Tuesday from an owner In the state for stall room Im mediately for his two horses. He desired to have the advantages of training In the arena. Other entries are rolling In at such a cllp that there Is no longer any doubt as to the quantity and quality of the horses which will be shown at Omaha's great autumnal exhibition. ' Mr. Wler of Lemars, la., has made eighteen entries In the heavy harness and roadster classes. The railroads have taken hold of the Horse Show with a vim! Special posters In the Horse Show colors have been pre pared and they are being sent to all sta tions within the radius of cheap rates for the show. Mr. Haller Is also sending out some new posters which have Just ar rived In connection with three sheets, and the surrounding country cannot say that It has not been informed as to the date for the Horse Show. Posters are also being distributed to the merchants, and all are preparing to decorate the windows for the show as soon ss the Ak-Sar-Ben colors can be stripped off. The gilded horseshoes went like hot cakes and the entire office force In the Bee building was busy handing out these emblems, which Were desired by women and men for trophy rooms and dens. Matinees Special Feature. A feature which will be of special Interest to many women and children will he the two matinees which will be held during the week, one on Wednesday and the other Saturday. Events of a more lively char acter will be scheduled for these days and the children will be given a gala time. The hunters will Jump the same as In the evening and the local classes for children will also show on these afternoons. At the matinee which was held last year the children from the orphanage were ad mitted free of charge. "The display of the Horse Show colors, arctic white and California red. Is one of the best ways to advertise the horse show, said one of the directors Tuesday. "We are working to have the colors displayed in so many ways that people will have to see them and when they see them every day and in every place, the are bound to ask what It Is all about. Every place that one goes one sees small bows of red and white. Everybody Is wearing one of the little bows and In the stores, on the street cars and In the shop windows these colors attract the eye. The success of the show from the standpoint of entries Is assured and It Is now but a question of getting the s-eneral Dubllc interested. The seats will go on sale October 1."

MANY NEW HOUSES UNPIPED FOR WINTER Inevitable Result of Tremendous Growth la City Which Is Re flected In Vast Amount of Improvement. It Is possible and even probftDle that fami lies who have taken possession of houses built this summer and fall will be eom pelled to do without gna this winter. Offi cers of the Omaha Oas company doubt very much If all the work which Is to be done can be accomplished before freeilng weather sots in. Scarcity of common labor is the difficulty. Not more than half the number of men needed for digging can be secured. Work Is so plentiful everywhere and In every manner of Industry that labor Is at a pre mium and the gas company, like other peo ple, has to do Its work with an Inadequate force. The wage for day labor Is $1.75. If a large number of men cannot be em ployed through October It means that some of the citizens will not get gas until spring. In some cases the delay In laying pipes from the mains to new houses will make It necessary for the company to tear up the pavement, whereas, If labor were plentiful the pipes might be laid this fall before the pavement Is laid. On West Harney street the gas company has a lot of work to do, and It has been expected all summer that the street would be paved this fall. How ever, the city's paving operations have been greatly hampered and It is possible that the Harney street pavement will not become a tangible thing until spring. In that event the gas company will have a chance to carry out Its plans. Other public utility concerns have had the same difficulty In securing common labor, notably the water company and the telephone company. The water company has been behind with its work all summer, but plans for new operations this fall are not extensive and the situation is not em i the Inspector branTi of the service In ths ' personal friends, well and good.

A sextette of United States postofflce In- soectors la Just now In the city on a sort of reunion and general comparison of notes with a view '.j promoting tne emciency, or HUNT REPLIES TO GONDEN Insists that the Latter Speaks as Paid Agent of the Nebraska Tele, phone Company. A. B. Hunt had this to say touching a recent signed article in The Bee snent the controversy over the proposed establish ment of a second telephone system In Omaha: "In answer to Mr. H. J. Oonden's denial that he was In the employ of the Nebraska Telephone company a year ago, I wish to reiterate what I said before, that he was employed In the Interest of that company. "As to the Instructions Mr. Oonden may have received I am not prepared to contra dict his statement. It may be pointed out, however, thst his version of these Instruc tions looks a bit 'ftnhy,' to say the least. Mr. Oonden has gumption enough to know that he was being paid In behalf of the Nebraska Telephone company from money put up in advance. He also undoubtedly knew that his work was designed to de feat my proposition, then under wsy, as well as to discourage the entry of competi tion Into other places. "Surely Mr. Oonden Is trying to crswl out of a very small hole when he pretends that he did not know In whose Interests and for what purpose he was working. Just as he Is now 'plugging' with all the cleverness at his command for the Ne braska Telephone company, so was he then doing Its work. And ths pretense that he Is here now to visit his parents will deceive no one. The ordinary citizen will regard It as quite singular that he should arrive Just as. the Independent telephone franchise Is again to the front, and should at once settle down as the amanuensis and defender of the local monopoly. The citizens of Omaha are not to be so easily fooled. They can read between the lines what he is here for and by whom paid. He Is Just one of many other pluggers and curbstone orators work ing against competition and belrfg paid for their work by the Nebraska Telephone company. "There is the other deplorable feature cf this campaign for the monopoly end that should be emphasized to the lasting dis grace of the people who conceived It. The Nebraska Telephone company has given or ders to Its telephone girls to each take with them three cards when through their work In the evening. On these they must secure signatures of three neighbors or friends be fore returning the cards in the morning. If they can get the signatures handily from phone system. "These cards, when returned, are to be bunched together and presented to the council as an argument against telephone competition. Surely the, Nebraska Tele phone company must have a very high opinion of the council and of the Intelli gence and love of fair play of the people of Omaha. "I want to say, too, that I take no stock In the reported boast of one of the officers of the Nebraska Telephone company, that we can never get a franchise through the present council, or that they have a signed agreement with five councllmen to that effect. My knowledge of the council con vinces me that the majority of them are good, honest men, who Intend to do what Is right. It may be that two or three of them have fixed opinions on the telephone question, and It may also be that we cannot convince them that the question should be submitted to the people for an expression of their Judgment. I believe, teowever, that If we get the backing of the thoughtful business man and workers of Omaha the council will act as the true and responsive representatives of the people of hls city, and not along lines laid down by the N breska Telephone company."
