BEFORE THE PEOPLE'S BAR
f rocoedingi 6a lull Jtdjs Offers Trading
Bumps to Gun Thine.
THtN FIRST-CLASS COMEDY IS ENACTED
I'linhrr rran lb Seen n4
Pretends t Be Both Out
of Money aid
Work.
Saturday morning's session ef the people's
bar reminded the Careful Observer and the
Oldest Inhabitant, who occupied a lower
box en the first washday In th Garden nf
Kden, whnre Mother Ere and her liege
lord did the family laundry In ten minutes.
Pol Ire Judge Herka'a end-of-the-week mat.
Inee was of Itself devoid of more tban pass
Ins Interest. There waa but little linen to
he clef need.- The polio magistrate de
clared be would give trading stamps to
stimulate business were It not for the fact
be will leave the people's bar the last of
the year for Judge-elect Crawford.
The performance dragged so for the first
fifteen minutes that the Mere Man snd the
Earliest Arrival, who got In on a pass, went
to sleep. They were suddenly awakened,
however, when Joe Russell came on with
a little monologue.
When Joe Russell, the monnloglet. said:
"I am a plumber, out of work and dead
broke," the Mere Man and the Earliest
Arrival woke up with such simultaneity
and force that a spectator In one of the
rear benches broke the back of his seat In
his merriment.
"This In too much." "'exclaimed the Mere
Man nnd his friend, which exclamation
caused the judge to narrow his eyes onit
nouely In the direction of the boxes.
"Order In the court," shouted Court Ber
geant Whalen.
The , Idea of a- plumber being without
money played on the risibilities of the peo
ple's bar habitues to the extent that the
man In the box office felt he would not
have to return any one's money On account
of dlsotlfactlon. No rain checks were
given out.
Russell was arretted by Patrolmen Hal
termnn and Shlclda on tho chargo of
drunkenness. When testifying Russell told
the court he had rothlng to shield, that he
was halted by two policemen and that If
released he would secure Immediate em
ployme.nt In a sugar factory. Russell was
releasedi
The next number on the program was a
song without words by J. T. Murphy of
Vnwhra and T"1an Psttnn nf FrMnnrt. Tho
day evening by Patrolman Halterman, who
placed the charge of drunkenness and beg
King on the street against them at the
city jail, Patton said he might have been
In a state nf excessive elation, but could
nut remember asking anyone for alms.
The men. made such a hit with the police
judge that they will be retained at the city
Jail for an engagement of five days each.
Union station by Peteotlves Ferris and
Dunn Mr. and Mrs. Welnstock were
charged at the city Jnil with defrauding
n Innkeeper. Mrs. Welnstock was re
leased Saturday morning.
Welnstock waa arrested In Omaha Oc
tober t by Detective McDonald on advice
from Chicago stating the man was wanted
In the Windy City on a charge of larceny.
Welnstock was taken back, but succeeded
In straightening that matter up.
SAUNDERS CASESTILL DRAGS
Maa's attorney "ays Woman Has
Cood Thin She Waste to
Hold Onto.
Judge Troup Saturday morning listened
to one more recitation of the disagreeable
points In the Paunders divorce case. Alice
Maude Paunders, plaintiff, lives In Omaha
now, while the defendant, Sherman Saun
ders, still resides In Bloomfleld, Neb. At
torneys W. P. Ourley and T. J. Mahoney
did the declaiming.
Mr. Ourley contended that Mrs. Saunders
does not wish to have her case come to an
early trial.
"She baa too good a thing." he said.
"Bhe gets $160 a month and 1700 for an at
torney's fee, and now she asks for $1,000
more to enable her to look up testimony.
Bhe sets out that she thinks If she is given
this money and allowed time she can pro
duce testimony to sustain her charges
against her husband. It Is the most ex
traordinary affidavit ever filed In Douglas
county. We think the delay In taking
depositions and In looking up witnesses Is
significant of the Intention of Mrs. Saun
ders to hold onto her good thing as long
as she can, and that the court should re
duce the allowance heretofore made."
Mr. Mahoney replied that the amended
answer and cross-petition of Sherman
Saunders, in which a doien distinct
charges of unfaithfulness are made against
the wife, Alice Maude Saunders, has en
tirely changed the nature of the case. He
asserted that to Investigate these charges
and Interrogate witnesses will require large
expense and the 'fee for defending should
also be very materially Increased.
Judge Troup took the application for an
additional $1,000 and defendant's motion for
a cutting of the wife's allowance in two
under consideration until some time next
week.
Charles Graham, whose personal liberty
was temporarily deprived by Detectives
Dunn and Ferris Friday night, was dis
charged when arraigned on the charge of
drunkenness and being a suspected person.
Graham aald he was looking for "Broad-
faced Dart" when arrested.
Ernest Wilson made such an earnest hit
before the people's bar that he was given
a thirty-five-day engagement with Jailor
Roach at the county jail. Wilson, who Is
colored, was charged with slapping Miss
tmltl Patterson on tho wrist andeye with
out due -provocation. Wilson boarded with
the Pattersons at 1309 Dodge street and
was told by Mrs. Patterson to take his
clothes and skldoo, which. , It appeared,
Wilson was loath to do. His love for Miss
l.ulu suddenly turned to hate. Miss Pat
terson testified Wilson tried to prevent her
from Inhaling the oxone necessary to sus
tain life by placing his two hands around
her neck. She claimed she did not like such
actions.
Alexander Morgan, colored, was engaged
for thirty days wl'hout pay by the man
agement of tho people's bar. Morgan waa
churned with vagrancy. Morgan- said he
Old not have enough money to buy a ticket
out of tewn and claimed the weather too
cold to ride the oumpers or blind baggage.
At the conclusion of the performance
Louts Berks, who played the role of police
judge, held a levee with his old friends In
the boxes.
OMAHA DOCTOR CN NOSTRUMS
Robert E. Eskildson Telia of Dope
Given to W. A. Khler's
Mttle One.
Dr. Robert E. Eskildson la the Omaha
physician whose testimony Is used In the
current Issue of Collier's Weekly In Its con
tlnued expose of the poisonous nature of
patent medicines. The weekly tells In tho
following words of a caso reported by Dr.
Eskildson to an eastern medical journal:
An Omaha physician reports a case of
poisoning from a compound bearing the
touching name of Kopp's Baby Friend,
which haa a considerable sale in the middle
west and central New York. It Is made
of sweetened water and morphine, about
one-third grain of morphine to the ounce.
"The child," says the physician, "after
taking four drops, went into a stupor at
once, the pupils were pin-pointed, the skin
cool and clammy, the heart and respira
tion slow. I treated the case as one of
opium poisoning, but It took twelve hours
before my little patient was out of dan
ger," "Yes." said Dr. Eskildson, in speaking of
the article in Collier's, "I reported the
case , to a medical journal, and I suppose
the magaxlne has taken Its Information
from that. The report Is absolutely cor
rect. I bad no means of analyzing the
medicine at the time, but the publication
to which I told the story had IV analysed
In a medloe.1 laboratory and found it to be
morphine and water, exactly as I had anticipated.
"The child Is the baby of Mr. and Mrs.
William A. Ehlera, 701 Bancroft street, and
the medicine waa administered last August,
when the child was $ days old. While I
was attending this child I heard of another
In the neighborhood who had almost died
from a dose of the same medicine, but I
could not ascertain the name."

ALL READY FOR CROWE TRIAL
Jadgo Day Will Opea Court for
Fasnoos Prtaoaer'a Hearings
Monday Morning.
All is ready for the opening of the trial
of Pat Crowe Monday morning before
Judge Day. County Attorney Elabaugh and
Assistant Charles E. Foster will prosecute
and former County Attorney English will
conduct the defense. Both sides expect to
have the) jury empaneled by Monday Wight
unless unforeseen objections to the char
acter of the men on the panel shall de
velop. The charge on which Crowe will be .tried
Is the shooting of Officer A. H. Jackson
with Intent to kill.
Anent the charges against Mr. Crowe
and the publicity given them during the
last five years, Mr. Tom Clark, a cltlxen
who styles himself a lover of justice, comns
to the front with this one, addressed to
The Bee:
"Sir Did Pat Crowe commit all those
crimes? If he did, please take a stand.
It Is newspaper talk more than truth."
Expatiating upon the meaning of his
missive, Mr. Clark suggested that If Mr.
Crowe waa guilty, and known to be, the
person possessing this Information owed It
to himself, society, posterity and Mr.
Crowe to prove it.
"Or," said Mr. Clark, " if you don't know
he is guilty, then keep still."
Mr. Clark proposes to be on hand
throughout the trial of Crowe.
"If Pat Crowe Is guilty, hang him," ex
claimed Mr. Clark as he passed out.

NAVAL LIFE ON THECANVAS
Moving Pictures to Da Exhibited nt
the Auditorium I'ndvr Depart
ment nt Washington.
Arrangements are being made by the
Navy department to exhibit a series of
moving pictures of life in the American
navy and on board the battleships and
cruisers, as a stimulus to recruiting the
naval strength. This exhibition will be pro
duced some time during the late winter or
early spring, possibly at the Auditorium.
The exhibition will be given in all the lead
ing cities of the west and many of the
smaller cities in Nebraska. On this matter
Lieutenant Commander Slgmon, In chargu
of the local recruiting depot, said:
"The visit of Prince Henry of England
and his squadron to American shores has
had a striking influence upon the increase
of navy enlistments, especially In snd
about New York. As an Instance, for the
week ending November 4 there were but
eleven enlistments; November 11. twenty
five enlistments, and for the week ending
November IS, seventy enlistments. .
"Regarding the enlistments for the navy
here at Omaha, we are looking for a ma
terial tnciease during the rour.tbs ef D.
rem ber and January. All of the apprentice
seamen enlistments gathered at Minneap
olis are sent to Omaha to Join our parties
to Ban Francisco. A new naval recruiting
depot haa Just been opened at Denvor.
There are now 31.000 men on the navy rolls
and It is the desire of the department to
Increase the enlisted strength about 3.000
In exress of that number."
