The I ut requirement Is the most signifi
cant of the lot. It means that all funds
of the respective candidates on the slate
must be centralised with the executive
committee of the etub. to be disbursed as
this body commends. . The patronage pk-dg
is so plainly worded as to arouse a ques
tion If It does not violate the corrupt
prattlers act. The whole document is a
liberal revelation In the true genius of the
organisation. As printed below It is an
exact copy of what was handed to a coun
clltT.anle candidate by R. Beecher Howell, a
member of the executive committee, who
informed the recipient that the club would
tiol consider his candidacy until he Had
affixed tiia name. This candidate declined.

The Fontanelle club is an organisation
having for Us object the advancement of
the material interests of the city .of
Omaha, Douglas county and the state of
Nebraska,' through the election to office of
capable, clean ni''n and the adoption of
rurp economic fxilicles us may tend to
stimulate public and private enterprise and
eliminate every form of unnecessary taxa
tion, both direct and Indirect.
In carrying out its purposes t Is the
aim of the Fonlanelle club to accord every
citizen, upon reniet. a due consideration
of his candidacy for any office to which he
may expire; at the same time the organisa
tion recognise, other things being equal,
that the honorable ambition of ita own
membeis must be first considered.
The beneflis of organization cannot be
enjoyed unless the individual thereof sac
rifices certain riirhts to Independent ac
tion for the compensating advantage of
united action, and so It is In the case of
the Fontanelle cl ih; the advantage which
a candidate derives from the organisation's
support Implies reciprocal duties to the or
1 ganlxatlon on the part of the candidate
before election, and upon the part of the
official after election. These duties in
clude: " .
First loyalty, to and active assistance
In the maintenance, and upbuilding of the
organisation.
tfecond An- enthusiastic support of the
policies of the organisation.
Third A recognition of the right of mem
bers of the organisation to first considera
tion In tbe distribution of patronage.
The governing body of the Fontanelle
club is the Hoard of Governors, composed
of one member from each election pre
cinct of Iouglas county, the executive du
ties -being -rformed hr a committee of
nine members. It is the collective Judg
ment of these two bodies that dictate the
endorsements -of candidates and outlines
the policies of the organisation, and each
representative of the club. whether an
officer of the organisation or an endorsed
candidate thereof, is in duty bound to be
governed thereby.
Mr. , you have applied to the
Fontanelle club for endorsement as a can
didate for the office of and it is
therefore the duty of the executive com
mittee, before favorably considering your
application, to learn If. in view of the
prxcedlng statement respecting the objects
and methods of the organization, you are
desirous of affiliating with the Fontanelle
club and. further, if you still desire to
act as representative of the organisation
as a candidate for office To this end
we take the liberty of asking the following
questions, rii:
First If you are not now. will you be

had filed for councllmanlc positions and

republican nominations. Bam K. Oreenleaf
was the man after the city clerkship who
checked in. "Buck" Taalor checked In as a

some time the old ex-councllman has
threatened such a thing, but no one took
him seriously. Frank Norton put in a
similar application In hopes of representing
the Third ward and Turner Taylor filed
for the republican nomination for building

Dssgtn of a
Cold aa Haw Aval
Them.
More fatalities have their origin in or
result from a cold than from any other
cause. This fact alone should make people
more careful as there is no danger whatever
from a cold when It Is properly treated In
the beginning. Fur many years Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy haa been recognised
as the most prompt and effectual medicine
In use for this disease. It acts on nature's
plan, loosens the cough, relieves the lungs,
opens the secretions and aids nature In re
storing the system to a healthy condition.
Aaaaaarrmeats of tbe Theaters.
In "The Berio-Comic GW Israel Zang
will has provided a new figure In . comedy.
It Is altogthef an original conceit and Is
worked out in a way that Is both plausible
and delicious from a comedy point of view.
While employed as a nurse girl during the
day, the heroine finds time to engage as
a music hall singer at night, and eventually
abandons the nursery for the stage. The
comedy clement arises from this dual ex
istence, and the pertinacity of a manager
who figures all the way through the action
of the play. The company, headed by
Nellie Beaumont and Richard Carroll, wtll
present this delightful comedy at the Boyd
theater on Thursday, Friday and Saturday
evenl-.gs of the present week, with a
matinee on Saturday.

said as long as the Injunction forbidding

under the terms of the Injunction the union

court, which was emerging -from the deep
lethargy into which it had been plunged
since the outbreak of the war, was thrown
into mourning today by the death of King
Christian. The emperor had again been
participating In formal functions, which had
been entirely suspended during the acute
period, of the International troubles. His
majesty was to have, given a dinner Janu

Ambassador Meyer had been invited, but

KICi DID GOOD FOR TBE WORLD
Promoted Peaee h- Secaria latrr
marrylaa; of Royal Hoa.es.
City Electrician Waldemar Michaelsen,
a native of Denmark, said:
King Christian aas called the grand
father of Europe. With the aid of his
wife, the late Queen Louise, a very eapi
able woman, he succeeded in intermarrying
many of the royal bouses of Europe. This
feat was perhaps his greatest triumph,
for it has been an ' Important factor in
maintaining the peace of the continent.
ilia services In this respect to the world
are far greater than appears ' at first
thought.
"Denmark for years has been the vaca
tion ground of many of the ruling heads
of European nations. They went to this
peaceful Utile country, feeling that its
domestic tranquillity offered a refuge from
I 1
constant danrers and menaces that
threatened them at home. The children and
grandchildren and their wives and hus
bands used to visit King Christian about
every two years. On these occasions the
royal box at the royal or state theaters
was enlarged to take in an entire tier of
boxes. Prominent in the parties who oc
cupied them together were tbe king and
queen of Denmark, the emperor and em
press of Russia, the king and queen of
Greece, the prince and princess of Wales,
now the king and queen of England, and
the duke and duchess of Cumberland. I
have never seen a more impressive. sight
ef the kind. The men wore resplendent
uniforms and the women Jewels without
number. The theater always was crowded
to the capacity at such times, but the.
prices were never raised so much as a
penny.
"Tbe relief and pleasure that some of
these crowned heads took in going to Den
mark can be realised by the abandon with
whiih they applied themselves to a child
Ish game of tag in the parks of Ftedens-
burg castle, meaning the castle of peace,
near Copenhagen. 1 saw the royal per
sonages I have mentioned doing just that
thing and apparently enjoying h to the
full extent.
"King Christian was much loved and
respited by his subjects. Hz wsa not
considered by them a brilliant man. but
oue of solid, substantial virtues. He ruled
close to the wishes of his people and had
the ability to pick cabinets in harmony
with the majority as expressed in the
houses of 'parliament. His reign was a
long, peaceful and prosperous one and his
private life was unsullied by scandals.
"Personally 1 think the world has lost
a gTeat and good man in King Christian
I doubt if any king of modern times had
so warm a place in the hearts of his sub
jects. While on state occasions he drove

"As a resident of Copenliagen I saw the

All that was said commendatory of "The
land of Nod" on the occasion nf its recent
former visit to Omsha is hereby endorsed,
wth the further statement that a second
review of the various sorts of amusement
afforded by this conglomeration of wit,
humor, nonsense, foolery and music simply
serves to confirm the opinion that it Is
worth while, at least so long as It is being
offered by the very Clever people having it
in hand now. One hesitates after seeing It
to begin to praise, for the choice of starting
places Is among such a large field of
favorites. , '
William Norris Is a delightfully droll fel
low and makes all sorts nf fun without re
sorting to mere monkeyshlnes or buffoonery
and half sings, halt declaims his songs in a
most pleasing way. Supported by Knox
Wilson and Fred Headmark hs gets a lot
of genuine fun out of the material afforded.
Knox Wilson's saxaphoue solo is none the
less popular for having been heard over
and over again, as was attested last night
by the numerous recalls he received.
Alice and Ethel Dovey are upholding the
name they have made famous, and Mr.
Norris takes much delight in keeping It
coupled with Plattsmouth. Alice Iovey Is
charming an Bonnie and Ethel serves most
acceptably ns the Reflection. Miss Shaw Is
a genuine delight as the chorus girl, and
Miae HiifT Is laughable as the grotesque
Rory Bory Alice. .
The real sipging part of the piece is In the
care of Miss Snow, who charms with voice
and person, and easily wins the applause of
the audience. But the whole affair would '
be tame and unsatisfying without the
chorus. It Is not the' most numerous body
of men and women ever seen on the stage,
but each Individual Is a worker, and a
bunch of high-steppers, led by the Mad
cape. Is a strong feature. If a merrier,
madder, more devilishly mischievous quar
tet than these same Madcaps ever danced
across the stage, it has not been In Omaha.
From each face beams out an impish smita
that speaks of latent mischief and fun,
while each curly head is wagged with a
promise of laughter and romping Jest. And
how Jhey do cai-ry on. Each movement Is
of grace and agile strength, and as they
swing their supple bodies In rhythm, all the
while performing gymnastic exercises that
call for an .unusual exhibition nf well
trained muscular power, they are bubbling
over with laughter. And all the rest of
the party seems to be tryln" to keep up
with the Madcaps. Verily, the only thing
drowsy about "The Land of Nod" Is Its
name. Even the Sand Man Is a vigorous old
party.
- The audience last night was not as many
as could have been comfortably located In
the theater, but It was warmlv enthusiastic
and was well entertained. "The Land of
Nod" will be givejy this evening and
Wednesday evening and at a matinee on
Wednesday afternoon.'

LINDSEY, FRIEND OF BOYS
reoTtr'i Holed Judge of Juvenile Court
"Viiiia Omaha.
CHIEF SPEAKEK AT CHURCH CUB DINNER
How to Reach a Hoy'a Heart aad
Vow to Keep lllm from Rrlasi
a t rlmlaal Made
Plata.
Judge Hen B. Undsey of the Juvenile
court of Denver talked on "The Juvenile
Court" last night at the Paxton hotel he
fore l.irt member of the Nebraska Church
club at the club's annual banquet. Judge
Lindsey was the guest of the evening.
His talk wss maln!y of methods us.-d in
dealing with boys In the court at Ienvei.
and he told how the court sought to Instill
h"pe, confidence, pride and love of fair
dealing in tbe youthful heart, and how the
boys were made to feel that the court
was with them and not against them, ss
they seemed to think was always the case
with the criminal courts. They were made
to feel that they were young men. to know
that they were to be given a chance to
prove that they were men. and to realise
that the court had Just as much confidence
In their manhood as though they had
never, been delinquent.
Boys May Be Traatrd.
8uh trestment almost never failed of
the result desired, said Judge LJndsey. It
had incplred silt h a f.-eling of pride In the
boys that they could be trusted to go
alone to a pUee of detention. Out of i.Mi
boys Judge Ijndsey had sent to detention
homes or reformatories In the last live
years, all of whom had been sent without
an officer, only one ran away, and he re
turned to court the next morning to say
that he lx lleved he lojld get there if lie
took a fresh st:irl and acre sent by an
other road. The train which carried htm
had run past his home In the outskirts of
Denver, the place where he played with
"the kids." and he could not reslxt the
temptstlon to Jump off. The second time
he tried he reached his destination. An
other boy the Judge told of whom he hud
sentenced to two years In the penitentiary.
This boy was sent alone to the prison, :.V
miles away, and the chief of police of
Denver made a bet of W that he would
run away. The next day the chief of po
lice telephoned the penitentiary to see if
he had won his bet. The warden at the
prison telephoned bark: "The boy is
washed and dressed and In line." The little
fellow had ridden 25 miles on the train,
had walked two miles to the prison, and had
literally forced his way into the peniten
tiary, for the armed guards who walked
tbe wall flourished their rifles and would
not let him until he had made a long ex
planation, which they could scarcely credit.
Criminal Court, and Boys.
In rvg.ird to the criminal courts, Judge
Undsty said:
"The state has no right to correct these
erring children unless the slate is prepared
to correct Ihein. And yet It does, with dire
results. ,'Lie, sneak, cheat, steal all you
can, but don't gel caught,' is taught by
i very police Judge In the country under the
criminal law.
"I talked to a boy who committed a burg
lary, was chased by detectives through ten
states, killed two policemen in trying to
ehid tl.cm and who cost the state of Mis
souri (0,0)0. He said to me with hate flush
ing in his eye. 'I'm even with Missouri. I
killed two of her policemen. O. but the
state of Missouri tied a millstone around
its neck when it neglected that boy.
"With the criminal court it Is leniency on
the one hand or brutality on the other.
Neither avails. Seventy-five per cent of the
boys treated with brutality return before
five years under criminal charges; So per
etnt of those treated with leniency return
reformed. The Juvenile court comes be
tween the two extremes and establishes a
system of efficiency. Love without Justice
is sentiment and weakness, but there Is no
Justice without love. And there is no love
in the criminal court.
Basic lollaeaees Keaehed.
"We are making progress when we begin
to get at the causes of delinquency," Judge
Lindsey said further. "We are getting
away from the mistaken idea that It is only
necessary to deal with the child. Nowa
days in Nebraska and Colorado, and Ne
braska has the best Juvenile law in tbe
country, the man who sends a boy to a sa
loon, the man who let the boy In, the parent
who allows the delinquency are criminals
