OTHERS NOT IN SORE AT THE CHIEFS -1llly' Sanadera Leadership la Prov Ins aa Elegant Boomenif for taa Ranks Will ot Follow Solldlr The secret meeting to boost Benson's candidacy held in the Omaha Commercial college building- Tuesday has served further to' disorganize the Fontanelle club ticket, since a few bits of information concerning it have leaked out. Other ' candidates do not conceal how sore they feel at the Inde pendent movements made for Benson, while they are left out of the calculations ' en tirely. Some of them have had cards printed, leaving the slate and all mention of the club endorsement off, and a number of Fontanelles persist in appearing at the Broatch meetings and. Joining In the pro ceedings as though there were no such mayoralty candidate as Benson supposed to be hitched up with them. According' to the tales told the aforemen tioned secret meeting grew out of a few dinners enjoyed together by "Billy" Saun ders. W. A. DeBord and Rev. S. D. Dutchur, pastor of the' First Christian church, at a cafe on Farnam . street. Saunders is the official manager of the Fontanelle club campaign and all three are affiliated -with the First Christian church. Practically all of the invitations to the session were Usued through clergymen. This was how Comp troller Ixibeck, a democrat, happened to gut in. Ills pastor, unwise to political matters, did not perceive the partisan lines that barred Lobeck and put the lattor m an awkward attitude. i . The fact Saunders was mixed up in the plot has incensed the minor candidates on the Fontanelle slate and has started them out openly each for himself and the devil trap the hindmost. C. J. Andersen,' who Is running for the' council, has already pulled oft an organisation meeting In his behalf and a candidate on the ticket an nounced frankly Friday that the point had been reached where every man was out for himself. City Attorney Breen and Frank Crawford of the Eleventh ward have laughed at the club's platform and all In all there Is about as much unity WILD ITC1G HUMOR Eruption Broke Out in Spots All Over' Body Caused a Continual Itching for Two Years Doctor.

My .' trouble waa eruption of the skin, which broke out in spots all over my body, and caused a continual itching which nearly drove me wild at timet. I got uedioine of a doctor, but it did not cure me, and when 1 saw in a paper vour ad., I sent to you for the Cutivura book and I studied my case in it. I then went to the drug store and bought one ?ake of Cuticura Soap, one box of Cu ticura Ointment, and one vial of Cuti eura Pill. From the first application I received relief. I used the first set and two extra cakes of Cuticura Soap, and waa completely cured. I had suffered for two year, and I again thank Cuticura for my cure.

One reason for ' the secret organisation la said to ' exist' In the antipathy of C. F. Harrison, F. D. Weed and others to per mitting A. H. Burnett or any of his sol lowing handling the Benson campaign. The anti-Burnett faction has threatened a row before and is said to be the under lying reason of the Inaependent Benson movement. The reasons that Wead and Harrison' have for their position were ex plained to a certain degree the other day, when Wead told two men on the street that It 'Was well known that when the Fontanelle club was about to endorse leg islative candidates In lMri, Burnett took a list of applicants to Ed Maurer's restaurant, where John N. Baldwin, politi cal manager of the Union Pacific, checked off those who were eligible and those who were - not. Since then an element of the Fontanelle club has had mental reservations and private opinions not at all of the har mony variety. The secret organization Is to have an other session when an attempt may be made to endorse a full ticket, which, a committee is now doctoring up. Men who have been told by Broatch workers to have applications prepared re questing places on the fire and police de partments, say they have been given to understand that a "school of appointments" will be made by the Broatch fire and police board - Monday night. The Information leaked out through men whom the appli cants-asked to sign the forms required by the commission. According to statements from these souroea the prospective firemen and policemen: have been approached by emissaries of Broatch and told that if they would "get In line" they would be given Jobs within a short time. Within the last few days a number of applications have been filed and arrangements made to clear the decks for action at an early meeting. During the past year several policemen have resigned or left the service and their places have not been filled. With the Are department probationary appointments can be made with very little difficulty and jobs actually filled when vacancies occur. BUI fitorkham was at the Eaglet' club when he heard that something of a lynch lng bee was ' In progress at Seventeenth and Harney streets. Always prepared for such emergencies by having his pockets full of cards Stockham got to the scene without delay and remained until 1 o'clock passing out his cards as a candidate to the throng. Other candidates were on the out skirts of the crowd In plenty, but they were not so enterprising. The "dollar gas" cry seems to be one upon which all candidates for any and all old offices can unite wltn perfect safety and imagined profit. It has been adopted as a leading feature by "Dave" Tubbs, who Is a candidate for building Inspector. Mr. Tubbs has a fine platform dealing with equal taxation and many other things, but he dilates on $1 gss. What the building department has to do with the gas prob lem is unknown and the city hall denlxens are trying to figure It all out. City Clerk Elbourn started out Friday to arrange for the renting of places for the primary election April 1. Next week, from March 1 to 23. Inclusive, the clerk will permit voters who became of age since the last registration, persons who were not then entitled to vote because of short resi dence, citlsens who could not register be cause of absence from the city and those who were detained by unavoidable accident such as sickness or family calamity, to swear In their affidavits of qualification, supported by two freeholders of their pre cinct. Transfers of registration for voters who have moved will be penult ted also. OMAHA SOCIAL SERVICE CLUB Orgaalaatloa ( Persoas Interested a Poblle raarttlee Formed to Promote Work.

SOME GOOD SUMS ALREADY ARE IN Mrs. TUdea Warns All to Stara Asso clatloa Pledge Card Before Maklagr Any Sab-scrlptloa. - The building headquarters ,of the Young Women's Christian association on the third floor of the Paxton block Is the busiest place In Omaha. The solicitors came in by scores at noon Friday In several stages of elation and dejection according to their results, but one and all reported kindly, courteous reception. While the - finance committee has as yet ma4e no statement as to the amount of subscriptions recoived, various members who have been soliciting among the business men . confessed to pledges ranging from and $500 up to 11.000. The team work Is progressing splen didly, considering the limitations placet, upon the canvass of the "girls." In spite of these limitations, however, the team Work has resulted . In some complications. Some of the young women not under standing they are not allowed to solicit from heads of firms, professional men and women, wives of business men . or beads of departments, have asked these subscrip tions, and when members of the vlBltlng committee have called later they have learned the subscription already has been given, and, too, with few exceptions, for a much smaller amount than these business men have been rated as able to give. Mrs. George Tilden, chairman of the finance committee, warns everyone not to make a cash subscription without first signing the association pledge card. It has been learned that some one has solicited cash subscriptions for the association without having the' pledge cards signed, and It Is Impossible to learn whether they were au thorlzed solicitors or not. Flaws from the Architect. Architect Kimball met with the building committee Thursday afternoon to present Interior plans and plans of the elevation will probably be ready for the committee the first of next week. Secretary Wade of the Young Men's Christian association has sent for the bis clock which Indicated the progress of the men's campaign last summer and which finished a like work at Kansas City Thurs day. It Is expected here Saturday or the first of next week and will be set up In some conspicuous place down town as soon as It arrives. Miss Elizabeth Jones, one of the na tional secretaries, will arrive Monday from the east and probably will spend the re mainder of the month In the local work. The following limitations have been placed upon the solicitation of members of the teams of ten and those assisting them: There shall be ten companies, consisting of one captain and nine lieutenants in each company. Soliciting shall be among wage earners only. No soliciting shall be done among the following: Heads of firms. Hearts of departments In large firms.

IN KENTUCK IN BORDER DAYS Nebraska Banker Saw Frank James and Younger Boys Shot at Brandenburg:. Armlnlus P. Culley of Loup City, one of the leading bankers of Nebraska, Is at tending to business Interests In Omaha for a few days. Mr. Culley Is president of three banks. First Nationals at Loup City, Greeley and State bank of Sargent, beside which he was the organizer of the First National bank at San Pedro, Cal. He also Is a big land owner. Mr. Culley is a Kentucklan, born and bred; in other words a thoroughbred, but while retaining warm affectlon,s for r.ls native state he prefers Nebraska to live and work In. During his boyhood days In old "Kentuck" Mr. Culley witnessed one of the many stirring events which were enacted there tn the old "border days." "I was at Brandenburg the day the James and Younger boys were attacked by town people who were scouring the country for some 'hoss' thieves," said Mr. culley. "I was only a boy, about 18 years of age. I remember Frank James and Cole and Jim Younger went In the old hotel and were followed by an angry mob. The people didn't know who the Youngers and James were; all they knew waa that they were strangers, and It was a bad thing tn those days to be a stranger In a com munity where a 'hoss' theft had been per petrated. First thing I knew some one whipped out a pistol and began shooting. A fusillade followed and when It was over Jim Younger and Frank James were pretty badly shot up. They managed to get out of the hotel and scramble up over the mountain to an old doctor's place where they received treatment. Public sentiment was against the men who shot the strangers after the first excitement blew over, for it became apparent they were not the horse .thieves. "And do you know It was only a few years ago that the people of Brandenburg really came to know who the men wore that were shot that rty?" Mr. Culley is an advocate of the present persistent movement for reform In financial as well as political affairs In the country.

Wyo., a hunt ing guide of the Jackson's Hole and Yel lowstone Park country. Is an Omaha vis itor, calling on old friends and Incidentally talking up the Jackson's Hole country as the paradise of hunters for big game and endeavoring to persuade a few people to take'thelr outing up there this summer and fall. "The Jackson's Hole country has been much maligned," he said, "and I want to disabuse your minds about It being .the refuge for bad men; It Is iust the reverse of all that. The people up there are as good a class of folks as you can find any where. Of course the region Is not very populous, but what there are of us are good. It Is the greatest hunting tountry on the continent today. Elk, there Is no limit to them. Flenty of deer, enough brown and black -bear, with a few silver tips to give the seeker after sturdy game all the excite ment he cares to hanker after. Then there are lots of antelope up In the mountains, and if a hunter wants to earn his spurs he can get an occasional shot at a mountain sheep. It is not much of an agricultural country, but some settlers are coming in, and we have irrigation projects under way, getting the water from Snake river. "There are some few cattle In the country and the ranchmen are good, big-hearted fellows that it is a pleasure to meet. Thore la no place on earth where you will meet more hospitable treatment. "Our hunting season generally runs from the middle of September and the game laws are liberal. Of course the wanton destruc tion of game Is not permitted at all.
