bar Tuesday morning hew It la possible to
be halt, lama and blind and yet have sun
shine in one'a soul. Rothrock, who said he
waa &X years of age, and who looked the
part, waa arrested Monday evening by Pa
trolman Llckert on the charge of vagrancy
and begging on the street. Although Roth
rock had lived beyond the allotted three
score and ten and was afflicted with many
of the Ills flesh Is heir to, he demonstrated
how It is possible for a person of a sunny
disposition to overcome the troubles of this
world if he has a mind to do so.
"Judge, it Is all In the will. I have
suffered the ills of the flesh for these many
years, and yet I have seen much to live
for," said Rothrock when arraigned.
"Let me give you the prescription of the
great physician. Judge: just look about
this great world of oura and you will see
much that wlll .be a panacea for the ills
of the flesh and mind. Get up these bright
spring 'mornings and hear the bluebird
calling his mate; note the blades of grass
and budding flowers pressing their way;
f even, the little sparrow's fall is marked;
and, I ask, why should I pine and com
plain?" The police judge could not resist such a
plea as that of Rothrock's. The men wss
discharged. Though nearly deprived of his
.eyesight,, the. man groped his way .down
the court stairs with an optimism that was
t-emarkable. ' -
"Though sorely afflicted, yet will I lift
Cp mine eyes," said Rothrock, as he left
the court room.

raigned before the police Judge on the
charge of having assaulted his mother at

prisoner was discharged.
; Mrs. Maekay testified her boy and his
sweetheart had an argument over who
should start ' the -morning Are when they
entered the married state. Just to show
where she wss at In the matter the young
woman In the case took off her slipper and
boxed the young man's ears with the foot

would be lord and master by trying to
bring the slipper and the young woman's
face into. Juxtaposition, when the mother-ln-law-to-be

and suffering which ha endured during this

gave him any permanent relief until be
used Chamberlain's Pain Balm. One ap

and made aleep and rest possible, and less
than one bottle has effected a permanent
cure. Mr. Massey relates his experience for
the benefit of others who may be similarly

LIRE GRAND ARMY REUNION
Hosts of Veterans at Federal Building, to
Teatifj Before Jury.
CATTLE MEN'S ATTORNEY SPEAKS FOR THEM
eya They Wnsld Wrlromi Settlers
and Are Koine; Broke Beranae
of Tnrn Affairs Have
Taken.
It Isn't a reunion or Grand Army encamp
ment thst Is In session at the federal build
ing, though that Impression might be de.
rlved from the host of old soldiers, new sol
diers and Grsnd Army men gathered In the
corridors of the federal building this week.
They are there as witnesses before the fed
eral grand jury in the land filing cases and
are summoned on various suits of various
grades of Importance, the great bulk In the
big cases, notably the Spade ranch en
closure tn Sheridan and Cherry counties
known as the Richards and Comstnck cases.
It Is the purpose of the federal officials to
get most of these smaller cases out of the
way In ordr that the witnesses may be
discharged and sent to their homes.
From the best Information obtainable It
now looks as If another of the big cases.
In which It Is ssld that Bartlett Richards
figures, will be taken up Wednesday.
Richards Is said to bs In Europe at present,
but his friends say he will be on hand to
answer to any Indictment brought against
him.
In Defense of Cattle Men.
Attorney C. C. Barker of Alliance, who
Is here to look after the Interests of a
number of his friends among the cattle
men, said Tuesday morning:
"A wrong conception prevails regarding
tha cattle country and that the cattle men
are a lawless class of people who persis
tently defy the laws. They are a pretty
good class of people and are doing and
have done much for the development of
that country and are vitally interested In
one of the greatest Industries of the west
In the rearing of cattle. A vast area of the
cattle country Is wholly useless for any
other purpose than cattle raising and gras
Ing. Only a year or two ago some of the
cattle men in the Alliance district sent Into
Wisconsin for a colony or two of thrifty
German farmers to come out and take up
lands In the cattle country and go Into
the dairy business. A number of them
came, but owing to the dryness of the soil,
the scarcity of water and the ever prevail
ing sand hills, destitute of grass or herbage
of any kind, the experiment has proven a
failure and many of the colonists are going
back to their former homes.
Want Settlers to Come.
"We certainly would hall with pleasure
the presence of numerous homesteaders on
every section of land In that country. Ws
only wish the conditions were such that
men and their families could settle on
these ranges and become a wealth-making
people for us as farmers, and all such will
be cordially welcomed and the cattlemen
will do everything to assist them In every
way. Many have tried it and have left the
country broken In purse and spirit and
their holdings have reverted to the condi
tion of abandoned claims, marks of un
fortunate and Inevitable failure.
"The agitation agalnBt the cattlemen has
had the effect of casting a gloom over the
cattle eountry. The cattlemen are becom
ing disheartened and discouraged. Many
of them would sell out at once If they
could come out anywhere near even. As
a rule the cattlemen are heavy borrowers
from the South Omaha banks and commis
sion men. Of necessity they must be bor
rowers, and. with any restriction of the
cattle tndusty, even by going back into the
old herding plan, many of them will lose
largely and many will become bankrupt."
Todd Reported Dying.
It now begins to look as If Ami Todd of
Plattsmouth, who Is under 15,000 bonds at
Denver charged with complicity In the
fraudulent land filing cases within the
Spade ranch enclosures in Sheridan and
Cherry counties, may not appear before the
federal grand Jury after all. Mr. Todd Is
seriously ill of cancer of the stomach at
Denver and his det.th Is expected at any
moment.
Mntnal Life Need Not Pay.
A mandate has been received from the
United States circuit court of appeals In

company. In which the Judgment of the

favor of the defendant. Suit was brought
to recover on an Insurance policy on the

Monday Breaks Record In This Kind
of Dealing; In Omaha tirala
Rshange.
Monday was the banner day In the his
tory of option trading on the floor of the
Omaha Grain exchange. When all trans
actions had been entered on the books and
the columns footed tip at night. It was
found that !..V2.nno huhels of wheat and
corn had changed hand. The highest fig
ure reached up to thst time was VA.rtOO
bushels, this record being made snout a
week ago.
The activity was due to strong bullish
Influences In both wheat and corn. As all
transactions are secret the relative propor
tion of corn and wheat which changed
hands Is not known, but It Is safe to say
that wheat was comparatively much more
lively than It has been with the Omaha
traders. The board showred this to be the
case all through the session. Wheat was
strong because of dry weather In the south
west,- and was up at one time 14 cents
from the close of the previous day, losing
more thsn half the advance at the close.
Corn was strong, being Influenced to a
great extent by the strength In wheat, and
due partly to the decrease In visible supply,
There Is only something like T.000 bushels
of corn of rontract grade In the local
publlo warehouses and no wheat. More
corn Is coming and probably wheat to
settlo the May deal, but as many of the
trades have been settled already there Is
little probability of necessity for large de
liveries. The grain committee of the exchange met
Monday to talk over the chief Inspector
ship, which office was left vacant by the
resignation of Mr. Heyl. No Inspector was
appointed and It was decided to wait for
more applications and . Investigate more
thoroughly the claims of those who have
already made known their desire for the
position.
WHISTLE TO START INVASION
Bosnia Siren Will SOnneV Departure of
Commercial t'lnb Train
for Kansas.
When you bear the screech of the Bemis
Bag company's whistle Wednesday morning,
it will be only fifteen minutes until the
Rock Island special pulls out from the
Union station, with over 100 Omahans to in
vade Kansas territory on commercial con
quest bent. The train will leave at 7
o'clock. It will carry eighty-five members
of the commercial club and Hunter's band
of twenty-five pieces. -
The club will epend three days In Kansas
territory, covering the -Rock Island from
Omaha to Burlington, Colo., and making a
side trip to Manhattan, Kan. It Is expected
to reach Omaha on tha return about 10
o'clock Friday night. Meals wll be Uken
on the train the first two days, and on the
third day dinner will be served to the
excursionists by the church women of Man
kato, Kan.
"Kansas City was here yesterday, and
seemed tame without a band," said a Man
kato man, writing to Chairman Will Yet
ter of the trade extension committee. "You
have hit the right track when you ring
the ladles for the dinner in on this trip.
Omaha will be town talk In their quilting
bees." . . ..
"Omaha will beat Kansas City for noise,"
said Mr. Yetter "for. we will take along
the band and the Btmls, siren. And that la
not all, we promised t.ha merchants along
the way that we will, not solicit trade.
Both Kansas City and Lincoln jobbers dis
gusted them by trying to drum up trade.
We are simply going to get acquainted
with them, and pave the way for the travel
ing men to come afterwards. Kansas City
was through the . territory Monday and
Tuesday of last week, and the Lincoln peo
ple made their calls the week before."
STRONGEST OPPOSITION GONE
Wattles' Action Taken as Saasjestlon
Thnt Others WU1 Have
No Show.
"What does the announcement of Mr.
Wattles mean?" said a friend of Mr. Wat
tles In request to a question. "It meant
simply that as a shrewd business man
and a far-sighted politician he has sur
veyed the .field and come to the conclu
sion thst conditions are not favorable In
Nebraska right now for him to make the
race. That he would be the strongest
man the opposition to Mr. Rosewatar
could pick up here lu Omaha Is unques
tioned and his refusal to stand should
open up a light to the others who think
they are In the race for Douglas county's
support In the state convention. If Mr.
Wattles concluded that It was risky for
him to run It Is a dead cinch that neither
Webster nor Millard nor Greene has a
ghost of a show. If they had the wisdom
of Mr. Wattles they would follow his
suit and pull out without wasting any
more time and let Mr. Rosewater have
the delegation without a contest, because
he is sure to have It anyway."

TRIBUTE TO BRAVE FIREMEN
Some of the needs of Valor thnt
Endear Theae Men to All
People,
James S. Hutton, a veteran newspaper
man, dropped In Tuesdsy morning In the
Interest of Talbot's "Fighting the Flames"
company, which opens on the old circus
lot on Paul street Wednesday evening,
under the susptces of the Omsha Are and
tolloe departments.
Speaking of the lot of the fireman and
his vicarious life, Mr. Hutton ssld:
"I have learned to realise that the (Ire
department Is the ark of safety In every
village, hamlet, town and city. That the
'boya' who I once thought lived the most
Indolent of lives, are the most active,
alert and bravest of men the truest snd
noblest defenders this country possesses
with a mission as high and holy as can
ever be that allotted man.
"It Is in the still, smsli hours of night
that we look to him not only for protec
tion of miserable chattels and the dross
we strive so hard to accumulate, but for
the salvation of our very lives.
"I have seen him standing up to his
waist In Ice cold wster, noszle In hsnd,
a very martyr to duty. Again, upon a
trembling, tottering wall, with biasing
timbers, crashing glass and long, snakey
steel girders, heated to white heat, seeking
to pinion him to his treacherous foothold,
cool, level-headed and courageous as befits
the American fire fighter. On yawning
roof and biasing staircase, I've seen him
fight his way. Inch by Inch, until victory
was his over man's most dreaded foe the
dread principle, fire. At the Mermod
Jaocard fire In St. Louis,' soma twenty
years ago, I saw him ascend a ladder te
a height of sixty feet,- nossle In hand, to
a point of vantage where he could direct
a stream. Torrents of water poured down
the ladder and frose In the awful air of
a bllsxard (It was IS degrees below tero
that early morning), until he was frosen
fast. All In the discharge of his duty.
His brave companions chopped away the
Ice and lowered him to the csre of his
comrades below. I've always thanked God
that he recovered."

mlnute conversation Tuesday morning ovei
the long-distance with his son, Jacob Alt
stadt, who lives In New York City. "LlttU

would be home next Thanksgiving day for
turkey and cranberry sauce. The judge's
boy Is just 16 years of age, but when It Is
recalled that the judge Is a great-grandfather

In Omaha next Thanksgiving and will In
vite you all down."
