HEMORRHAGE IS THE IMMEDIATE CAUSE Sprroaaaed hr Mast at Hli Fnmllr at the OI4 Home oa Sarin Twentr-Fonrth Street Pioneer Dies. John I. Redlik, one of the pioneer citi zens of this city, pained away at his resi dence, 3611 North Twenty-fourth street, Tuesday at $;) pi m. Mr. Itedick was operated upon last fall and had not been well since, although he had been around until the last two weeks, during which time he was confined to his bed. Most of lils family was around the bedside of Mr. Krdlck during his last nioments. The Im mediate cause of his deatn was a hemor rhage. John 1. Redlck was born at Wooster, O., July 29, 12. He moved to Lansing. Mich., when a young man and was admitted to the bar' at that place. He arrived In Omaha October 27, 1866, and at once threw his vigorous snd forceful personality into the then young settlement. He was prom inently Identified with all of the early Im provements and growth of the city and wan one of a coterie of far-sighted men who saw In' the town Its future possibili ties and irrejUnes. much of which he has lived to see reaJtied. It wss more as a successful lawyer be fore a Jury than any other one accom plishment that marked Judge Redtck as one of the shining lights of his profession. He wss a past master In the art of con vincing a Jury, his great lntuitlveness and wit counting for much on many occa sions. He first Joined with Jra a. Chapman In the law business in Omaha, the firm being known as Redlck Chapman. The pnrtnershlp' wss of short duration, Mr. Redlck forming a legal alliance in 18S9 with Clinton Brlggs. For ten years the Arm of Redlck A Prlggs was a mighty factor In the local courts, gaining a number of notable decisions also In the supreme court In land cases. During 1B Mr. Redlck went Into partnership with W. J. Connell, this alliance lasting a year. Nil Political Activity. In January, 188T. he moved to Ixs An geles, Cal., and engaged in real estate transactions. In which business he was then, aa well as before and since, highly successful. While t I,os . Angeles he srved two years aa president of the South ern California National bank, returning to Omaha In the fall of 1889. since which time he was engaged principally In looking after his extensive property. Interests. Though not a politician in the usual sense, Mr. Redjck, on account of hla recog nised ability, waa honored with various positions. In 1876 President Orant ap pointed him one of the Judges of the ter ritory of New Mexico, after which ser vice Mr. Redlck was attorney for tfco Union Pacific road' for one and a half years, with offices at Denver. He was a member of the Seventh Nebraska legisla ture; was chairman of the Nebraska dele gation at Pittsburg when Lincoln and Johnson were- nominated, and chairman of the same delegation at Baltimore when Grant was renominated for the presidency. Mr. Redlck waa one of seven men to build the Omaha tk Northwestern rail road; was one of the builders of the Grand Central hotel and was ope of the organ isers of Brownell hall -In 1868. i- , In the main Judge pedlck has been a re- publican In politic. He was . communi cant of the Episcopal church. During his- long residence In Omaha lie waa exceptionally fortunate in his real estate dealings, holding at the time of hla death many properties throughout the city. Judge Redlck Is survived by a wife and five sons. The' sons are: Charles R., prac ticing law In Oklahoma; Judge William A., one of the Douglas cour.ty district Judges; O. Chatham, a member of the Omaha bar; George M. and Elmer, the youngest sons, yet Ixi' school. Albert Clarkson, an other son, died In Omaha two years ago. Mrs. Marie Nagle, a sister of Mr. Redlck, lives in Wooster, O. Mr. Redlck was married three times. His first wife was Mary E. Hlgbee, whom he married at Pittsburg In 1856. She died In Omaha during 1H65 and two years later he married Mary E. May of Omaha. The third wife was Miss Barbara Lyon of Ham ilton, Can.' ' She was married to Judge Redlck at Detroit about nine years ago. Oplaloa' of a Contemporary. Judge a. Wakeley, one of Judgo Redlck's contemporaries In the early days, has this to' say of the ' dead Jurist and pioneer: "Judge Redlck was noted for his great activity and aggressiveness as a lawyer 1n particular and everything else in general that he undertook to do. He was one of the workers. He was noted at the bar for his humor and quick wit and had much tact In handling a case before a Jury. "Aside from his legal talents he pos sessed a peculiar faculty for buying and selling real estate to advantage, through which means he amassed considerable wealth. He was -one of Omaha's pioneer and great lawyers, practicing here with such men as Estabrook, .Woolworth, Pop pleton, Brlggs and a list of others I might mention." And as Judge Wskeley said this he drew his hand across his head and looked ba.-k - trf jnore over the half forgotten years. "I not recall that he Judge had any particular r.obbjrN Some years back I re member he had quite a liking for well-bred homes, bat his health has not been the beet for quite awhile and he has lived a quiet life, looking after his property and taking a rest In the evening of his life." Experience with the rials Clan. During the '50s Judge Redlck was one of the moving spirits in the Omaha Claim club, which was at first known as the "Omaha Township Claim association." In those early days the land had not yet been surveyed, and for the protection of settlers nearly every male Inhabitant In Omaha was formed Into a sort of community of Interest organisation for mutual protection. The tract now known aa Redlck's addition was In those stirring times claimed by Governor Cuming, but he soon relinquished his claim after a memorable experience. The following la an account of one of Judge Redlck's experiences with the Claim club. It Is given here In the Judge's own language and Is from a previously pub lished account: "Several of us who were boarding st the Tremont house on Douglas street attended a temperance meeting one night, held In the Methodist church. Just around the cor ner on Thirteenth street. It was proposed to organise to secure the adoption of the Maine liquor law, and I was asked to say something. I objected to the proposition and said that such a law could not be car ried out In Nebraska and remarked, inci dentally, that the fnlted States laws al lowed a man to enter but lfiO acres of land, while the Omaha Claim club said he could hold .twice that amount and declared its readiness to defend him in claiming that amount. Next morning I went to my office and was met with a scolding by my part ner, James f. Chapmsn, who said I had got myself and the firm of Redlck ft Chap man In a nice muddle. He kept on with a regular tirade, but finally I got him to ex plain whst he was talking about and learned, to my astonishment, that I had been reported aa using treasonable lan guage against the Claim club. I soon found the town posted with notices of a meeting of the club and concluded that I had stirred up a good deal of a rumpus without In tending to. The club was a powerful or ganisation. I knew, for I was a member of It. I laid In a revolver that day. loaded It and put It In my overcoat pocket. Then I told Chapman that he owed It to me to see that I had a chance to speak when the club met." What Happened at the Meeting;. The account then tells of the next meet ing of the club, of the first speakers and of the Judge's appearance on the platform, concluding with: "For ten minutes I dwelt on the advan tages of the territory of Nebraska and pre dicted Ita glorious future. Then I praised the Claim club and said I had Improved the first opportunity to Join It upon com ing to Omaha a few months previously. I then said I had no Intention to reflect upon the club and that what I had ssld had not been correctly reported. I added that I know that every man present was at least an ordinarily brave man. and with that I produced my revolver with one hand nnd took out my watch with the other and said: 'I denounce the man who has thus misrep resented me as a liar, a coward and a sneak, and will give him one minute In which to come out and face me.1 As the time ticked oft no one moved, and when I announced that the time had expired there was a burst of applause, and I was con vinced that I had nothing to fear." The above sketch well Illustrates the man's native tact and daring, a character istic that was always tempered with good Judgment and which on many occasions carried the day for him. One of the Real Old-Tlmers. . "Well, well, and so the Judge Is gone. Is he?" was the exclamation of Dr. George L. Miller when Informed over the telephone that his old friend had died. "Another of us old men gone, one of the vory. oldest of Omaha citizens. It only serves to remind us the more that our time Is not far .off. I have Just come home from helping to. lay away another dear old comrade, Mr.-J. 8. Gibson. "Judge Redlck was a man of strong and aggressive character. He came here In 1856 and helped mould the city of Omaha from a wilderness. He stamped the force of his character upon the city and state. He was a good friend and citizen. I am shocked to hear of the Inevitable, though we cannot always be surprised when the end comes to one who has so completely rounded out more than the allotted days of man." Mr. Gibson Burled at Tekamah. Mr. Gibson, who died early Sunday morn ing at his home. 1301 South Thirtieth ave nue, was buried In Tekamah, or will be today, for Ills body was taken there yes terday after services conducted by Rev. T. V. Moore of the Westminster Presbyterian church. He waa 71 years of age. He came to Nebraska from Indiana In 1856 and seven years later settled In Omaha. He had been a member of the legislature, of the city council, of which he was president In the eighties and active In other public and pri vate spheres, lie was a charter member of the Covert lodge of Masons, a Royal Arch and Knights Templar and member of the Knights of Honor. He was a founder of the Old Settlers' club. In the late seven ties and early eighties he waa in the cloth ing business at Fifteenth and Farnam streets. . He went west to Idaho and Colo rado for a little while. He is survived by a widow. A Qaeatloa that Kvcry Man Should Decide for Himself.

DENNEHY & COMPANY, Chicago. ELECTION IN CHICAGO TODAY Municipal Ownership of 8treet Railways is the Principal lame. DUNNE IS CONFIDENT OF SUCCESS Saloan Keepers Arc Making- a Strong Fight Against All Aldermen Who Voted for High License. CHICAGO. April I.-The question of municipal ownership of Chicago's street railways will be submitted to the populir vote tomorrow and the result Is awaited with great interest. The contest has been one of the most bitter that has leen waged in this city In many years. Members of the Municipal Ownership league have de tailed to remain at every polling place in the city tomorrow to watch the Interests of "the little ballot," as the ticket bearing the three propositions relative to municipal ownership whhvh are to be voted for has been named. Representatives of factions which are opposed to municipal ownership will also have watchers In every precinct. The usual party lines which exist at an aldermanlc election In this city have been largely obliterated, and the eligibility of candidates Is construed In the light of their attitude toward municipal, ownership and a high license for saloons. The advocates of municipal ownership tonight expressed the utmost confidence In the result, declar ing that the voters of Chicago will favor it by an overwhelming majority. Mayor Dunne said tonight that the munlclpc.l ownership would carry Chicago by 6 to 1. Thomas Carey, chairman of the democratic county central committee and a political enemy of Mayor Dunne, said: "I feel satis fled that the voters will turn down the propositions In a way that will surprise the advocates of municipal ownership." 'James Reddlck, chslrman of the repub lican county central committee, contented himself with predicting an increase In the number of republican members In the city council. He would offer no estimate of the result on municipal ownership. Isaacs on the Ticket. The propositions to be voted for tomorrow are: 1. Shall the city of Chicago proceed to operate street railways. 2. Shall an ordinance be passed bv the city council of Chicago providing for the Issue of street railway certltlrates in nn amount not to exceed $75,on,om, the money to be used for the purchase of the existing street railway companies, be approved. 3. Shall the city council proceed without d!lay to acquire municipal ownership and operation of nil street railwnvs in Chicago Instead of granting franchises to private companies. The first proposition must receive 60 per cent , of all votes cast In order to become binding. A majority carries the other two. In addition to the contest on municipal ownership the question of whether saloon licenses shall be $500 or tl.nno per annum will be up for final settlement. The numer ous crimes against women committed In this city of late caused a widespread belief thnt they were Indirectly the result of many saloons which existed under a low license, but which would be wiped out If the amount was placed at $1,(100. The city council, after a sharp fight, passed an ordi nance making the license 1,000. The liquor Interests have made a strong fight against every alderman up for re-election who voted for the ordinance. If a majority of these men are returned to the council the $1,000 license Is expected to remain, other wise it Is expected the ordinance will he repealed and the old figure of 1500 restored.

It may appear S3 an ordinary sore at first, and is given treatment as such, with some simple salve, wash or plaster, with the hope that the place will heal, but the real seat of the trouble is in the blood and cannot be reached by external remedies, and soon the sore will return. Aftet awhile the deadly poison begins to eat into the surrounding flesh and the ulcer spreads rapidly, becoming more offensive and alarming until at last the sufferer finds he is afflicted with Cancer. Cancerous ulcers often start from a boil, wart, mole or pimple, which has been bruised or roughly handled, showinsr that the taint is in the blood, perhaps inherited.
