MEASURE CUTS OFF LIVE STOCK PASSES
Rallroaa Committee af Kichaac Will
l,rk to Hare the Provision Elim
inate from th. Bill Before
It Passes Cntrni.
There was a special meeting of the South
Omaha Uvi Stock exchange yesterday af
ternoon, th object hf which waa to enter
a protest against the clause in the. pending
anti-pane bill, which prevents the railroads
lutilng the customary transportation to the
shippers of stock.
In the discussion and action on the rate
bill In the senate, the seventh Instant the
objectionable amendment was presented and
adopted as follows:
That no carrier engaged In Interstate
commerce shall directly or Indirectly lsrue
or rlve any free ticket, tree pass or free
transportation to any person, except to the
officers, agents, employes or attorneys ex
clusively In the service of the carrier Is
suing the same, or to ministers of religion.
Inmates of hospitals, eleemosynary and
charitable Institutions. Any carrier violat
ing this provision shall be deemed guilty
of a misdemeanor and shall for each offense
fuy to the United States a penalty of not
rss than 1100 nor more than 11,000.
Immediately upon the appearanoe of the
above In the press Secretary Guild of the
Live Stock exchange wired Senator Mil
lard as follows:
Ioes the so-catled pass amendment to
rate bill contemplate the abolition of re
turn transportation to live stock shippers?
To which Senator Millard replied: "Yes!
and applies both ways and to all persons
except railway employes, clergymen and
charity."
The matter Is now In ths bands of the
railroad committee of the South Omaha
Live Block exchange and patrons of the
South Omaha market may rest assured that
everything possible will be done by this
committee to protect their Interests In this
vital matter and before the final passage
of the rate bill every effort will be made
by the committee to have the bill so
amended as to permit and provide for the
same privileges to stockmen as heretofore.
The following message of protest has been
sent Senator Millard:
Telegram received. The Bouth Omaha
1-lve Slock exchange in behalf of the pro
duueers and shippers of live stock hereby
protests against any amendment or action
that will permit railroad companies to dis
continue the Issuance of return transpor
tation on live stock shipments after fifty
years of practice. A letter follows.
t'nantrr Club Mertlnsr Postponed.
The general meeting of the South Omaha
County club, which was to have been held
this evening at the library hall, has been
postponed for one week on account of the
fact that many of the members of the club
have been Invited to attend a brilliant
social function this evening, so will be
unable to be present. The meeting will
therefore be held In the same place on the
latter date. There will be a meeting of
the directors, however, this afternoon In
the office of Dr. Schlndel. The president
reports that the new club house will be
turned over to the management, completed.
Saturday evening. The golfing links have
been seeded and a fine crop of grass has
been rtarted. The greens have been all
made. For the present year and until
the players of the new club become more
expert only the natural hasards will be
used. In the course of another year an
elaborate system of artificial hazards will
tie erected on the fields.
' The hustling committees hate been
steadily st work and the list of membership
is growing In good shape. At the meeting
Of directors this afternoon their work will
be discussed. The date for the formal
opening will be definitely fixed. For that
occasion and afterward In all probability
the rluh will furnish a regular carryall
for the accommodation of members to assist
them from the end of the Albright car
line to the club grounds. The grade of
the new car line has been nearly completed
and the company Is still working pn the
cut nesr Bellevue. The work of laying

to the grading. It may be completed by

Th. dramatic entertainment given by the
pupils ot Ooodwal Dtckerman at the
Creighton auditorium, Twenly-flfth and
California streets. Thursday evening was
an unqualified success In every way, the
efforts of those taking part receiving gen
erous applause. The characters In tbe two
one-act plays produced were assumed by
Tress Keys, Anella Gil more, Susan Weaver,
Maude Keys, Daisy Can, Wylma Leech,
Nellie Perry and George Burbank. The
first waa "A Society Eclair," In which three
members Introduced' specialties of a most
pleasing order and handsomely executed.
Nellie Perry was called upon to perform a
Spanish dance, followed by George Bur
bank reading "Ills Wedding Morn" and
"Hepsy at the Stat. Convention;" then
by Tress Keys with th. "Telephone Ro
mance," and an encore, and Anella Gil
more with three original poems entitled
"Take Your Arm From Round My Waist,"
"Co-Bell" and "SonT You Washed?" Each
of the numbers waa . highly entertaining
and fully merited the rounds of applause
given each. It would hardly be fair to
particularly mention any certain act aa
being well done, for there was a great deal
of ability evident In the work of each per
former. The program for the evening closed with
the comedy. "Which Shall I Have?" par
ticipated In by W. H. Thorp, George Bur
bank, Frank Morris, Tress Keys. Wylma
Leech, Maude Keys and Anella GUmore.
Th. entertainment was given for th.

LETTER CARRIERS OWN A DOG
Postmen Chip In and Boy Tag for
Parp, Their Constant
Companion.
"Purp Owned by Omaha Letter Car
riers." This is th. Inscription of a sliver
plat, that ornaments handsome new dog
collar that surrounds the neck of a com
mon cur dog that for six months has d
voted himself to the Interest of the Omaha
letter carriers. "Purp" came from nowhere
at the beginning of the last winter and
Immediately installed himself at the post
office, aa th. special friend of th. letter
carriers. He Is a medium slsed canln. of
slat, color on the back and aides, whit,
feet and slate, spotted head and whit,
noaxlo. H. has been making the tour of
the city with the various carriers all win
ter and spring. He does not stick to on.
carrier In particular, but bestows his favors
among all of them. Sometimes he goes
with the mall wagons to the depots.
"Purp" evidently is a newspaper reader
and keepa close tab on dog tax time.
Hence for several days he has been diffi
dent about taking his chances on the
streets with the dog catcher without a tag.
The carriers Wednesday took up a sub
scription and bought "Purp" a collar and
tag.
He boards at th. postofflce, all the car
riers, and clerks contributing from their
lunches. "Purp" has been formally
adopted by the postofflce, and Is the only
dog that has free run of the building.
Yet at the same time he seems to know
of the general Inhibition against dogs be
ing permitted about the postofflce building,
and In fair weather, when not on duty
h. takes up his poult Ion at the carriers'
entrance and keeps watch.

CASH GIFT WITH NO NAME
One Handred Dollars Donated to Y.
W. C. A. Fnad by n "John
Smith."
A very acceptable aftermath of th.
Young Women's Christian association
building campaign cam. Thursday in the
shape of ait anonymous gift of 1100. Tbe
money waa sent to Mrs. J. P. Lord of the
finance committee In the form of a draft
on th. United States National bank of
Omaha and with the accompanying note:
"Mrs. J. P. Lord: Kindly add this amount
to the Y. W. C. A. building fund and ac
knowledge Its receipt through on. of th.
dally papers. John Smith."
There Is no clue to the Identity of the
mysterious, though klndly-dlsposed, "John
Smith," but the women have no criticism
to offer of his methods and trust that his
kind may Increase. There will be a meet
ing of the executive officers of th. finance
committee Saturday afternoon to consider
resuming the building campaign, which
waa called off to meet the more Immediate
demands of the San Francisco sufferers.

SUIT TO TEST LICENSE TAX
Case Will Be Brought by Mabangh to
Determine Validity of
Brown's Opinion.
It has been decided to institute mandamus
proceedings to test th. validity of the
opinion of the attorney general that liquor
licenses are subject to taxations. On. of
th. deputies will refuse to assess the li
censes In his territory and County Attorney
Slabaugh will bring proceedings to compel
him to do so. This will furnish a speedy
test of th. law In th. case.
County Attorney Slabaugh has received
word that the law was partially tested
In Pawnee county about a year ago In a
suit in district court. In th. district eourt
It was held the licenses were not subject
to taxation and the caee was not appealed
to th. supreme court. Th. Douglas county
case will probably go to the supreme court,
no matter who wins out In th. lower court,
in order that It may be a thorough test
of th. case.
