Oabbert on the ticket as candidate for re-election to the supreme bench. Before the convention Mr. Stewart advised against the nomination of Gabbert. When the nom ination was made Stewart was not pres ent, being 111 at his hotef.

Denver, Colo.: Dear Blr I beg to Inform you that I have forwarded to the secretary of state my declination of the nomination of the office of governor re cently tendered me by the state republican convention. , 1 very deeply regret that a sudden and evere attack of, lllneg prevented, under directions of my. physician, the report of the work of the convention being- brought to my attention prior to Its final adjourn ment on Saturday last. A later act of the convention, however, makes It quite Impossible for me to render tc..,'le star end to the party the service whloh I bed confidently hoped to perform In the coming campaign. I wish to exprert through you to the re publicans of the state my sincere appreci ation of the honor conferred by my nom- i me many personal assur ances of regard, and to assure you that my efforts for the success of the party and Its principles will be In no way re laxed, very respectfully vours, V; PHILLIP B.

There was, also a report current tonight that the republicans would call another convention and nominate an entire new ticket. ALL IS WELL AT LINCOLN NOW Maker an Hie Auto Having; Sabslded, Peace Aarala Relgas ea Salt Creek. Colonel John O. Maher. of Lincoln la In Omaha and brlnga the consoling Informa tion that he and his automobile have burled the hatchet and signed,-sealed and executed a treaty of peace. It Is understood there la at' third party -to the treaty namely, the city of Lincoln. Colonel Maher's auto threatens to plunge him even further Into the limelight than did his faithful typewriter during the troublous daya of the Spanish-American war, down at Chlckamauga, when General Grant, who Insisted on making use of the bellicose colonel's typewriter, was all but court-martialed by the fall sycamore from the Platte originally the Wabash. . That automobile had become the terror Of tranquil Lincoln; men dodged it, atreet Cre stopped "to let It pass, anxious mothers fled with their little ones at Us approach and children ran, screaming, to their mam mae whenever It met their gase. The fact la, or waa, the auto waa not inherently a bad auto no worse than any auto but It Waa too much for Colonel Maher. 'With the doughty colonel at Ita helm the machine waa just as. liable to go snorting up O street when he wanted It to traverse Thir teenth street as anything and all the col onel could do would not change things a bit. The machine would stand and puff and plunge like an Infuriated bull, and one time It actually plowed lta .way Into a house, from which the frightened occupants fled In holy terror. Immediately this depre dation became publicly known; residents of that part of town held a mass meeting and decided the only thing to do In the Interest of humanity waa to build "auto" cellars on the same order as the cyclone cellars In Kanaaa. It waa at this juncture -4-he city took a hand in affaire. After repeated conferences between Colonel Maher. the city officials nd two or Jhree expert automobile men, matters were patched up in such a way as to obvla(a the, necessity of auto cellars. And today, ' so. the story runs,' vehicles nd pedestrians travel the streets of Lin coln with almost the same Immunity that .surrounds the Inhabitants of other commu nities, where rantankerous uutos and belligerent typewriters are wholly unknown.

Juvenile Officer Carver visited the home of the Lawrence family at 2814 Webster street Tuesday morning and discovered one of the worst cases of squalid surroundings he ever witnessed. Mr. Carver's particular Interest In the rase was the welfare of two children, I and 4 years of age, the children of Mrs Vace, daughter of Mr. Lawrence. The building occupied by the four per sons Is a double house with eight rooms. When Mr. Carver entered the place he at first thought he hsd received the wrong address, as he wandered through empty rooms until he located ths family In a side room with nothing but one old mat tress on the bare Moor and a broken down stove. The mother and grandfather were given three daya In which to find suitable quarters for the two children under penalty of having the children taken away from tbem and properly cared for.

NUMBER OF SHORT, PITHY SPEECHES MADE Itsuos to Issue Proclamation I rains Easiness Men to Decorate Their Places Rales for the Parades. A glorious leave-taxing waa the one of Monday night at Ak-Sar-Ben den, . where a large assemblage of loyal knights paid their last visit to the . Fountain of Youth and its youth-giving waters. The very rafters of the old building reverberated with the enthusiasm of those who have made up the legion of honor for the com ing of King- Ak-Bar-Brn XII. two weeks hence. Every eye beamed with a luster peculiar to the Inner circles of Ak-Sar-Ben, every ear was keen, to hear - every word apoken by those who had the gift of oral expression, every hand was quick to grasp the hand of his neighbor and every heart beat with firmness. Judging from the twelfth year at the den the king, when he enters his favored city thla fall, may well look about him and pro nounce his gracloua blessinf on the city and state which has done so much for his king dom the past season. One of the largest. If not the largest, crowd of the season was on band at the den last evening. As is usual on the last In itiation night Gua Renze injects a little ex tra flss into the Fountain, and last evening was no exception. A more good-natured and yet resolute body of men than the one at the den last evening; could not b found within many, many miles of the chief city of Qulvera. Speeches Short aad to the Point. The list of sneakers was well selected by Acting Grand Mufti B. F. Thomas. A few pithy remarks cf the various sponsors of Ak-Bar-Ben and the realm, as related last evening;, follows: . 1 G. W.

Thompson, of Grand Inland, Can didate for Senator The whole state Is under everlasting Indebtedness to Ak-Sar-Ben. I hope the time Is not far distant when all the stork and grain raised In the state will be marketed at Omaha. ' Dudley Smith, one of the originators of Ak-Sar-Ben I think the business men of Omaha should see to It that each year they set apart an appropriation for Ak-Sar-Ben and facilitate the work by an nouncing their contributions. Something; In the Atr. George L. Sheldon ot Newhawka, candi date for governor There seems . to be something In the air of our state which makes men of aggressiveness and sta bility. Omaha is a great city and should not be discriminated against. Mayor Dahlman I want to thank those men from out In the state for their kind words and assure them of mutual sympa thies and support. Gilbert M. Hitchcock, editor of World Herald The history of our city for-twenty years has proved that we have a direct commercial Interest In one another. Attorney W. W. Dodge Ak-Sar-Ben ex tends the hand of fellowship to all and endeavors to get the "square deal" for 'all. The total paid membership of Ak-Bar-Ben for 1906 waa 994. At last evening' meeting of the Board of Governors It was decided that members of the board owning automobiles are not eligible for prises In the automobile flower parade. Samson urges all business men to dec orate their places of business for the car nival period.,. .'This week the mayor will issue a proclamation to that effect. In the afternoon parade of October t the governora will ride In carriages. In the float parade they will ride .on horseback and in the afternoon parade of October 4 the members of the Board of Governora will ride In automobiles, so It has been de creed.

After the initiation at -the Ak-Ear-Bcn den Monday evening the German band. Imported for the occasion, was hauled to the police station and charged with die turblng the peace by making loud and unusual noises against the peace and dig nity of the city of Omaha. Of course tho whole affair was a Joke, but where the real joke came In was. when the members of the band wandered back to the den for their regular clothes. By the time the band returned Gus Rense had gone home and left In charge a watchman,. who had not been advised of the fake arreats. The members of the band lined up at the east entrance at 12:U a. m. and Herman Dlnkinspell, leader of the band, knocked loudly on the door. Watchman Johnson responded by asking". "'Who goea there?" ' "Der Shoyman band. Glf us oar clothes already, or If you don't glf ua some clothes .we vill make some noises vot you like not,", replied 'the leader. But the watchman had instructions to let no one enter after hours, so he knew only his duty, as he understood it Der Shoyman band went home In the burlesque attire, i, Mayor Dahlman personally called at the police station after the arrest and arranged for the release' of the prisoners. A nut brown maid captured the hearts of those who went to the Auditorium last night to hear the Royal Hawaiian band. She was Misa Lei Lehua, whose clear, liquid voice sang In her own soft native tongue the Hawaiian farewell, "Aloha Oe," to music composed by her one time sovereign. Queen Lllluokalanl. She sang other songs, too, some tinged with sadness and filled with longing, others bright and lively. For all she waa given generous applause. She la pleasant In appearance, with expressive features, slender body and abundant hair. Once or twice, as encores, she sang Amer ican songs, perhaps Just to show her au dience her versatility, for the native melo dies were much sweeter. Scarcely less popular were the songs of the Glee club, part ot them arranged by Band Director Berger, and part of them by the Hawaiian Sonny Conha, director of the Glee club. These were much more thoroughly appreciated than "Happy Heine" and other popular muslo which dec orated the program at frequent Intervals. In the Glee club numbers John" 8. Bills appeared twice In tenor solos, pleasing; his audience Immensely. The -"Stars and Stripes" at the beginning of the program and "The Star Spangled Banner" at the end served to remind the audience that the people on the stage, though dark-skinned and of another tongue, were a part of the American republic. Altogether it was' an enjoyable entertainment. The band will be here all week and Sunday, and will give a concert each after noon and evening. It la the second appear ance of the band in Omaha thla season, the first, some time ago, having proven a aucceesful one. Last night the audience was very small, probably due to the fact that the coming of the Hawallana waa not properly advertised. Tonight the band will play the famous composition by Tobanl, entitled "Realistic Tone Picture, Civil War," with accessories and soenle effects. Friday night la desig nated as "military night" and veterans of the civil and the Spanish-American wars will be present to take part in the pro gram. The women of the Lowe Avenue Presby terian church have established a booth in the rear of the Auditorium and are "serv ing ice cream and other, refreshments to those who attend the concerts. Kew Physical Director. Miss Florence Dennlson of Mendota, III., arrived in Omaha Tuesday morning to en ter upon her duties as physical director of the local Young Women's Christian asso ciation. Although the physical-department does not resume work until October 9, Mies Dennlson will begirt the preliminary work at once. NEWS FOR THE ARMY. Captain Wrote Hutchinson of the general staff.
