WESTBERG BURNS AIR IN HIS TALK Brnateh, Rmua, Brnnr, Rlnsham and Others Pasr at Mfrlliti la lih aa Eighth Wards . Last Sight. W. H. Hoffman, who broke from the ranks of obscurity while (Join a little around and lofty oratorical stunt In the Twelfth ward last week, did not speak at the Broatch meeting Thursday evening In Wolff's hall. Twenty-second and Cumlntr streets. Just why Mr. Hoffman disappointed o many waa not explained exactly, but when Mr. Broatch, In his speech, told of what It cost him to square himself In the newspapers after Mr. Hoffman's Twelfth ward talk (rot Into print, then It began to percolate through the reasoning of some why Mr. Hoffman was not on the program. During his talk Mr. Broach referred to a speaker in the Twelfth ward last week (obviously meaning Hoffman) as Injudicious. The meeting In the Eighth last evening was not particularly violent, except when John N. Weatberg became carelesa In hi use of language In referring to Edward Rosewater and . several newspapers Mr. Westberg does not like. "My record is open for Inspection and I thank Mr. Broach and his friends for this opportunity of standing up this evening for John N. West berg," declared Westberg In his peroration. B-oateh and Hta Reward. A resolution was passed endorsing Broatch and pledging him support. After testifying for Westberg, Captain Broatch said he had a record that those present must have given him credit for. . "I understand that at the beginning of this campaign Mr. Rosewater wanted to support Mr. Bingham for the mayoralty candidacy, but Mr. Bingham refused to al low Mr. Rosewater to sign his vetoes.' Mr. Rosewater has today a signed statement from Mr. Hennlngs which binds Hennlngs to the extent that should he be elected Mr. Rosewater will sign his vetoes snd name his appointments. I have proof for that state ment." Mr, Broatch scored the yellow journals and said If some of the clergy of the city needed the prayers of other of the clergy, then those present should not blame him If he needed the prayers of the clergy. Mr. Broatch stated that If public senti ment favored no lid, there would be no lid, and registered a vigorous protest against the Civic Federation, saying the Civic Federation had stolen thunder from the Board of Fire and Police Commission ers. J. M. Macfarland, candidate for city at. torney, rated Benson as a bolter anything but a republican and having no right to run on the republican ticket. He said Ben son was fit only to be mayor of Dundee, where his first endorsement was secured at the meeting of a sewing society. About fifty other candidates spoke many glad words for themselves. Reason, Br em aad Weathers;. Eraatus Benson, Harry C. Brome, John N.j Westberg and several of the Fontanel! candidates for council spoke last night before a Sixth ward meeting at Twenty fourth and Burdotte streets. Mr. Benson mad a short talk on the present cam paign. Incidentally patting the Sixth ward ers on the back as the best citlsens and the most Intelligent Voters in the city, and Mr. Brome followed with a long oratorical effort, reciting the whole history of Omaha nongovernment from A to Z, his hearers frequently pulling out their watches dur Ing the last fifteen minutes of his talk. "There are two classes of people, in Omaha who want bad government," said Mr. Benson, "the high-up and the low town, both of them seeking to prey on the aeople. By the low-down I mean thugs, grafters, pimps, keepers of dives, and by the high-up I mean those respectable people who want to prey on the city by making contracts for their products at a higher prjee than they are worth. They are the adroitly managed minority, who cast their vote without regard to public or party, who put their time and money Into the campaign In proportion as they reap a harvest from bad government. Find out whom these people are going to support and then vote the other way." Mr. Benson said the only question of the campaign Is whether the people, are going to own the government or turn It over to this minority. He asked tor the election of good councilmen, saying he did not care to sacrifice Ills time and business to labor with a council owned by corpora tions. John N.' Westberg tried to fx plain his position at the time of the Bolln defalca tion. Mr. Westberg said he had appealed to the News to defend him against charges that were being madel but met a refusal to have anything to do with him. Mr, . Brome's remarks were directed mainly against corporation rule. .EveryJ body heard him through but W, W. Bing ham', who slipped away to hear the last part of Broatch's speech at Twenty-second and Cuming streets. George Hurst, candidate for council from the Sixth ward, pledged himself foi 11 gas. twenty-four street car rides for 11 and telephone connections with all Ne braska. D. A. N. Chase said he would fight for 11 gas. would accept no street oar passes and would use no free water or gas in his house. i Martallts- Statistics.

It is the most powerfrl of all human ailments corrupting very part of the body and wrecking and ruining the lives of those unfortunate enough to contract it. When the first sign appears in the form of an insig nificant sore or ulcer, few persons realize that the deadly vims has entered the blood; but so potent is the poison that one drop will vitiate and pollute the purest and healthiest blood, and in a short time the degrading and hor rible symptoms begin to appear. The moulh and throat ulcerate, the glands in the neck and groins swell, the Lair and eye-brows fall out, copper-colored spots appear on the body, and ia the latter stages of the disease the poison even worksdown and destroys the bones. No other disease is so highly contagious, and many have contracted it and suffered its awful consequences through a friendly hand-ahalte, handling the clothing of one afflicted with it, or drinking from the same vessel. S. S. S., The King of Blood Purifiers, is the only cure for Contagious Blood Poiion. It goes down into the cir culation and forces out every particle of the virus. It is nature's antidote PURELY VEGETABLE. again. S. S. S. is purely vegetable, we offer $i,ooo for proof that it contains a par ticle of mineral of any kind.

N'-Bta de Becker . Elizabeth Valentine The Import of Mr. Ganthony's message Is as pertinent today. as it was a year ago, when flist unfolded to Omaha people; In fact, the discouraging truth Is that If the message had any effect whatever, It has been so slight as to escape notice. How ever, that doesn't In any way detract from its Importance. It Is a preachment against selfishness, an exposition of the altruistlo doctrine that enjoins on us the responsibil ity of our brother's welfare, and Impresses us with a regard for others and a forget fulness of self. It Is very much opposed to the practice at least of the twentieth cen tury so far as it has advanced. And, for a further reason, It la a very pretty play, co gently constructed snd sending home its lesson with a force that ought to convince. It is In nowise the fault of the author or the actor if It doesn't. They are simply re newing the experience of the sower who went forth to sow. Mr. David Proctor, who has the role of Horace Farker In the present Instance, differs in a great many particulars from the Interpretation given the role by Mr. Hawtrey. In the tlrst act where Mr. Haw trey exhibited a peevlHhness Mr. Parker has the attitude of a man so completely satunud with his own line of Conduct that he simply cannot understand why anyone should differ with him on any point. His voice Is sharp, metallic and unsympathetic, and his words are given a double edge. He seems the incarnation of absolute selfish ness. In the second act he departs to seine extent from this attitude, and becomes rather a spoiled child, straining against a force he cannot control. Here the action of the play suffers somewhat, for Horace Parker had a dignity about him that ought to support him to some degree even during the severe trial that wrenched his Soul loose from Its moorings and changed the course of his life. In the thlid act the re juvenated Parker is made a really loveabla nian. As a whole, Mr. Parker is very satis factory In the role. He Is particularly strong In his closing scenes. Mr. Hatfield Is a capital Messenger, read ing his lines with a convincing force. MIhs Valentine brings charm of mind and per son alike to the role of Minnie Temple, and the rest) of the supporting company Is ade quate.

WOMAN U CLUB AND CHARITY In the death of Susan B. Anthony this week, not alone the- women suffraglBts, whose cause site has made nor life work, but all organtiattons of women, havo sus tained a loss. Although It lias been sev eral years since Miss Anthony lias been physically able to carry the burden that she bore so well for so many years that broader opportunities might be opened t j women, her wise council and the Inspiration of her presence has served to encourage when the outlook has been darkest. Re peatedly she has been acknowledged the "foremost American woman." She devotel her life to doing for women what millions of them have not had the courage to do for themselves. The year book of the Nebraska Federa tion of Women's clubs for 1905-06 Is out this week. It is a neat little pamphlet of hfty-six pages, bound in white and lettered with the name and date and bearing the spray of goldenrod, the federation flower. The report of the corresponding secretary shows a gratifying extension of club In terest, 140 clubs now being enrolled. The membership numbers 4.750. Thirty clubs are affiliated with the General Federation. Seventy-nve of the 140 clubs in the state organization were represented at the last state meeting. The club calendars show a marked tendency toward broader and more substantial work. With scarcely an ex ception the suggestions of the national president hav been acted upon. Civil ser vice has been given a place on the pro grams of nearly every club of the stato, Nebraska being second among the state organisations for the number of civil ser vice programs presented. Forestry, too, has been given general consideration, the clubs working In co-operation with th State Forestry association. The Invitation of the clubs of Kearney to hold the next state convention there, October I, 10 and 11, has been accepted by the executive boari. Greetings from the various officers are also Included in the year book, among them being brief outlines of the work In the several districts. It Is urgently requeste I that the clubs of the state, especially at the district meetings, give careful con sideration of the proposed amendment to the constitution of the State Federation, providing that its conventions shall be held biennially Instead of annually as in the past. At a meeting of the Women's Christian Tempersnce union, held Wednesday after noon, a gift of was voted to the build ing fund of the Young Women's Christian association. Considering the ma,ny needs that the union has of Its limited funds this assistance to a sister organisation Is most generous. The union Is planning some fea tures In the way of temperance talks, the details to be announced later. It was also voted that the local union be one of ten others in Nebraska to give 10 to the Wil lard temple at Chicago.. One hundred dol lars has already been raised in Nebraska in' this way for the temple. The plan was suggested by Mrs. Helen Hornby of this state and has bn taken up tu nearly all th other states. One praetlctil woman bas hi mi example that may well be emulated by otbets. Her self unable to go out to solicit for the Young Women's Christian association building fund, she has volunteered to da the mending and darning for one of her neighbors- who has pledged her time to that ork for thuonth.
