A FRATERNAL LIFE INSURANCE ORDER FOR WOMEN
Seven years ago the present corps of officers assumed
' the management of this order and found a membership
of 5,000 carrying an indebtedness of over $30,000.00.
Since that time the debt has been entirely paid and the
Membership Mas Increased to 38,000
while in the treasury to secure the payment of death
claims and prevent the possibility of an increase in
rates there is a
Surplus of Over
Five Hundred Thousand Dollars.
The experimental stage has been passed. A constantly increas
ing surplus isbeing laid up against a constantly increasing member
ship, making our insurance as safe as a government bond.
Our benefits are from $300 to $2,000 and in addition to these
amounts, we erect at the grave of each member a monument costing
not less than $100.

Telegraph and Telephone
Lines Knocked Ont.
After collecting forces for hour over Into
the northwest, the cloud at last poured
forth their contents upon Omaha and
vicinity at about S o'clock Saturday even
Ing. and, aided by a wind of blah velocity,
compelled people to close the windows and
doors and seek whatever shelter was near,
If they were on the streets. But It wasn't
so much after all. Omaha has seen worse
storms. Every little while there would be
a lull In the furious battle of the elements,
and although followed very shortly by at
much noise, motion and falling water as
ever, and sometimes more, the little rest
gave the more timid ones an opportunity
to recover their equanimity and gather
sufficient courage to - withstand the nest
onslaught
fnearellaa of Ho Berries.
On the streets In the downtown district
luckless mea and women who did not Im
mediately run for shelter when the sky
turned suddenly black and creepy little
gusts of wind twirled around here and
there ominously were drenched almost as
quickly at If they had been thrown Into
)h river. Umbrellas were of no value,
or at least not for very long. Persons of
both seses wsre frequently seen walking
boldly through the rain, wholly Indifferent
to the water, tbetr umbrellas having been
destroyed and they themselves drenched
In a twinkling. Each street soon became
a river.
The eatreme sultriness of the day drew
large numbers to the parks and open air
pleasure reeurta and many of theee were
Artnched before the could find shelter.
Relief Iran. Hoot.
The wind and rain ceased together after
continuing a little mora than an hour and
were followed by a gratlfylngly cool breese
after the sultriness of the day. As soon as
It was safe people went out to aee what
damage had been done, but not a great deal
In the city was reported. Lightning had
track an eleotrlo light pole at Thtrty-flfth
and Leavenworth street and the wires were
broken. They felt on the street, but were
soon repaired. Lightning also damaged the
Farnara Street school building, tearing a
hols In the brlok wall and shattering the
ohtmney. The storm started almost simul
taaeously with the sounding o( aa alarm of
nr. from Sixteenth and Leavenwonn
streets, where a lace curtain had biased up
suddenly, and while the wind and ram were
at their, height the firemen were given two
additional runs, all threa being wltbls an

and Nicholas streets and a scare at Thlr-
unth and Jenkenn streets called out the
department, but no damage resulted In any
Instance.
The sky remained black and threatening
until lat Sunday morning.
Telegraph Wires Down.
rvnahn and vlclnltv was not the only sec
tion to be visited by the heavy rain and
high wind last evening. Tho telephone

panies reported their inability to reach

road reported Its wires down to the north
of Herman. Bo far as known the wind had
no Indication of tornado, but simply a
high, straight blow, as In Omaha, nut tne
force was sufficient to disarrange the tele
phone and telegraph service. The North
western reported Its wires to Sioux city
from Counoil Bluffs aa working, but not
satisfactorily. So far aa the railroad offices
were aware of there Wad been no storm of
a tornado nature In that section, but the
ruin was heavy and the wind strong. On
the Milwaukee the heavy rain caused a
washout between Council Bluffs and Ma
nilla, and the trains on that road mera be
ing run around by way of the 'Northwest
ern Una.
In Council Bluffs the creek overflowed' Its
banks, aa usual, and flooded Lower Broad
way, leaving a coating of mud on the pave
ments. Report front Oatelde.

electrical storm passed over the city at I
o'clock. The electrical disturbances were
something marvelous. To the observer It
seemed Impossible that anything could es
cape destruction. The most terrlflo flashes
seemed to fall from every quarter of the
heavens. Strange to say, however, no
deaths nor destruction by fire or lightning
la reported.

SS0S PODHYVEGEIME
Tha forests and fields are abundantly supplied with vegetation of vari
oua kind, not along to beautify the laud, but to furnish the ingredients for
making a remedy for every ill and ailment of mankind. Medicines made
from the roots, herbs and barks, which aaturt has placed at the disposal of
man, act better in every way than do strong- mineral mixtures and concoc
tions the products of the chemist's shop. Mineral medicines work danger
ously on the delicate parts of the system, especially the stomach and bowels,
by eating out tha lining membrane, producing chronic dyspepsia and often
entirely ruining the health. 8. S. S. enjoys the distinction of being the
only purely vegetable remedy on tha market. It is made entirely of gentle
acting, healing, pacifying roots, herbs asi barks, possessing properties that
build up and invigorate all part of tha system, in addition to removing all
impurities and poisons from the blood. S. & S. cures Rheumatism. Catarrh,
8cfofula, Sores and Ulcers, Skin Diseases, Contagious Blood Poison, and all
disorders of the blod, by cleansing tha circulation of the cause, and it cures
safely as well as permanently. It Is as safe for children and old people as
for those in th prime of Ufa, and is the ana blood medicine that may be used
without fear of bad aftar-edWts. Book on tha blood sent free to all aha

AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA
Bsllroad Laborer Probably Fatally Hurt on
Uaion Pacific Grade,
ONE LEG CUTOFF AND THE OTHER CRUSHED
Officer Has a. Lively Chase aad Haa
Hand Severely Injared.la Eav
counter with Prlaeaer Who
Trlea to Escape.
Steve Oreskvlc, a native of one of tha
provinces of southern Bohemia, was
probably fatally hurt early yesterday
morning near Dooly & Moody's grading
camp. This camp is about nine miles west
of the city on the Union Pacific cutoff. The
young man was standing in tha middle of
the tracks when a load of dump cars was
backed down on him. He taw them com
ing and atarted to step oft the track, but
atubbed his toe on a tie and fell across
ona of the rails. Before he cauld roll oft
tha rail the first car passed over his legs.
The left leg was severed at tha knee Joint
as neatly as If by a surgeon's knife. The
right leg was pinched so that tha muscles
burst through the skin, and tha bona was
broken. After three cars had passed over
him he managed to roll off the track and
saved further mutilation. His body was
feJdnd to ba mass of bruises and contusions
when ha was brought to the South Omaha
hospital. He was attended there by Dr.
Slabaugh, It was found necessary to am
putate tha leg which was severed at the
knee at a point a few Inches above. It is
also likely that the right leg will have to
be amputated also. It was impossible to
perform the second amputation yestorday
on account of the low condition of the
man. The shock of his Injuries is so great
ss to seriously threaten his life. At a
late hour ha was very low and thought to
be sinking. He Is a young man of 26 and
haa a wtfe In his native land. He has no
permanent address In this city which it
known.
Chang f Grade Wanted.
Tb meeting called by the Highland Park
Improvement club of property owners on
Twenty-seventh street was largely attended
Friday night at tha Lincoln school. Con
siderable discussion was Indulged in as tho
established grade is unsatisfactory to the
ownera of property on the East 81de. This
grade Is from six to fifteen feet lower than
the west tide of the street. City Engineer
Rohrbaugb was present and gave the exaot
condition and valuable information on vari
ous changes of grades suggested. As the
city has notified property owners to put
down sidewalks they are analous to reach
an agreement on tha grade. The Eajt
Riders on low grafts could not agree upon
a compromise grade when Mr. Maaeon an J
others on the 'West Bide volunteered to
lower tha grade on Twenty-seventh and H
streets two feet. This met with consider
able favor as it will diminish the fill at t
street and ths city engineer was requested
to prepare a profile ao a petition could be
circulated for such change. A greater
ohange In grade It Is feared will Interfere
with the thirty-Inch. water main. Mayor
Hootor was present and suggested soma ac
tion as the city haa been at a large ex
pense filling In at I street, whlah Is useless
as long as the other parts of Twenty-seventh
are not remedied.
City Attorney Bnsy.
Tha city attorney Is busy at present
with the case of Mrs. Wolfe against tha
City bt South Omaha, a damage suit aa the
result of a runaway accident at Twenty
fourth and U streets. Mrs. Waif aaoerts
that her beree took frlgbt at the steam
roller which was stadosed at Twenty-,
fourth and street. It ran to l where
tha street ear company had resnerved tta
pawing hatwoan the traoks far the pnr
poee of repair. The wheal of tb rig la
aid to aewa keen broken there aad the
occupants of tha vehicle thrown eat, ta
whloa fail Mrs. Wolfe raoatved blurts
which confined her to a hospital for sev
eial weeks. Another case from the tame
cause is still pending.
During the present week the attorney
will try the restraining order which at
preaent prevents the procedure of the
psvtng on Missouri avsnue. The cawe will
be taken up as soon as the Wolfe case M
disposed of. Along with the legal trials
of the afflicted avenue there Is a grwit
trial of the patience of the people of that
locality. This patience was practically ex
hausted before the rain of last night, and
now It It all gone.
Case of Smallpox Located.
A well developed case of smallpox was
discovered yesterday morning at fill N
street. Th afflicted party Is Mrs. W. H.
Hall, who, with her husband -and a child,
lives over the building formerly occupied
by a shooting gallery. Sanitary Inspector
MCllntock visited the place and placed the
whole family under quarantine. He then
notified the Omaha authorities and they re
moved the patients to the emergency hos
pital during th afternoon. The case had
not reached the stage of active contagion
and It la thought the precautions taken will
confine the disease easily.
Officer Haa a Lively Chase.

Eat Plro ratted aura Const. jaHoa,
age, transition spells the message of the
hour. A comparatively short-lived wave
of materialism is seeking the brueh of the
artist to paint In gladder hue the sordid
picture It ha given us. A world fulled to
steep by Its gigsntlc strides In the Meld of
oommeroial advance la ominously yawning
now, awakening from Its slumbers snd
demanding at leAst an equal advance In
th cultural and humane. The meditations
of the philosopher, the musings of the poet,
the ples of the reformer and the appeals
of the lust are beginning to make them
selves felt. Out of the storms which now
sweep headlong a'er us. may we not hope
for the calm and peaceful days which
shall richly reward us for our season of
unrest?
In our own country we are now In the
throes of a bloodiest revolution, which,
guided by tha strong hand and the brave
heart of our great young president, must
he brought to a sucoeaufnl termination.
Business ethics are changing, honor and
humanity are the watchword which sound
their echo In legislative hall and in court
of Justice. Elijah-like, w shall pass
through the Are end the storm and the'
es-rthquake, and, at length, In the celmnet
of the star-lit night, shall hear the still
small voice, answering that to us belons"
the victory, to us the crown, for with our
sinews we have labored snd with our
hearts we have hoped, for the larger civi
lisation, the broader progress, including all
mankind.
Not all revolutlona, however, are blood
less. When a people through centuries of
persecution have been ground beneath the
Iron heel of remorselesa cruelty, when the
last drop of blood hss been wrung from
th racked and tortured bodies of thftee
who looked and honed and waited In Vain,
then a new spirit is born, which bids the
down-trodden srlse and make use of the
powers which God gave them, arise and
avenge the wrongs of time!
Through blood snd alaughter must they,
who fight against kings and nobles, win,
Inch by inch, their divinely given rights.
From Russia, the land of hart-ache and
of misery, Ruxsla, the cruel and Infamous,
our ears catch the echos of carnage and
horror. In the Duma, I believe, nothing
of Importance will he accomplished. If
the fiend Romanoff Is to bend the knee
and paas beneath the yoke, nothing short
of revolution will accomplish It. But
where are tha men who shall bring this
to pass. Tolstoi we hsve, and Gorky we
have. TolKtol. like some prophet of old,
agonising and suffering with his peasant
friends, snd Gorky, besting his wings, like
some caned bird, against the Iron bars
of his own Incompetency. But where may
we look for the matchless intellect snd
guiding spirit of a Mlrabeau. where shall
we search for the contagious enthusiasm
of a Dantnn, and where find the organising
genius of a Robespierre? Will the present
exigency bring them forth, will there erlse
from the midst of the down-trodden people,
leaders who shall conserve the energy and
organise the strength, which now arises,
not to beg in suppllsnce bent snd not to
Implore, in whining note, but to demand
In dignity and tn pride that, to which their
very birth entitles them?
Not prophetic are my words, but
prophetlo has always been the experience
of my people. That country which perse
cuted the Jew has lived to rue the day.
Proud Spain today. In humility would re
call those whom in scorn she drove home
less from her shore!
If not from the Russians themselves, then
frcm the Jew, who through all the vi
cissitudes of the changing years, through all
the bitter persecution and cruelly laborious
treatment, has not lost his dignity, his
Individuality. From his ranks leaders will
yet coins forth.
My time is limited snd I would not tire
you. else I might recite to you examplea
of herolo martyrdom. I might recall to
your memory things you already know. As
It la, I must, even as you, promise nothing
and prophesy nothing. "Hope springs
eternal In the humsn breast." snd it Is that
hope which tonight burns within our breast
