T A' T1IE OMAHA SUNDAY- BEE: OCTOBK mod. THE MAN WHO WAS PUNCHED BY V A COAT. Iiy A. Ta .Utr-Vvtt'er. IT was a Cold Day for Thompson! ' He'd been In Tight Places before, but this was the Limit, Urn was Bound Neck, Arms and Legs, by his clothes. Old Dr. Goose had fixed him. 1 When he first put on that stilt In the Clothing Store he was very much Tickled with It. But now, Instead of being "Tickled" he found himself "pinched" by It. You see the coat hed been sweated Into shape by the Flat-iron, Instead of -being patiently worked Into shape with the Needle and Thread. This sweating by Old Dr. Goose, had shrunk up the cloth in places where It was too loose and flabby. It had also strentched out the cloth where It was too tight and plnchy. The fiat-Iron can do all this. In a hurry, you know. It can throw a new shape into the Coat "while you wait" almost. But that shape won't "stap put." The first damp day Wilts out all the shrinkage. And the first very dry warm day, or a very warm dry room, shrinks up the flat-iron stretching again. Then, you're in a sort of straight Jacket. . Haven't you felt that tugglng-down on the back of your neck, sometimes? Haven't you noticed how the Coat "binds" under the arms, and across the shoulders after a week or two of wear? Haven't you seen the left lapel of your Coat collar bunch up, and swell out, from your vest collar? And, perhaps you've noticed, too, how the shoulders get sloping, and drop down at the points when they ought to stand up and look stylish? Well all that gradual degeneration Is the result of Klat-lron faking. Because, a Coat that's properly made and fully-shaped, by sincere hand-needle-work can't lose Its shape ' from Wear or from Weather. Such needle-work binds It forever Into a given form. And If that form fits you, and pleases you, when you first put the Coat on, you may rely upon that same form remaining Jn the garment till it ts worn out, .' Not so with clothes shaped by the Flat-iron. Because these have been merely shaped by heat and moisture, by "the Tailor's Goose." Instead of by sincere hand-stitchlng. And, for this reason, the Heat and Moisture of weather will unahape thtmi ' in the same way they were shaped. Now 80 per cent of all Coats of Overcoats are shaped and finished by the faky Flat-Iron. But you can't tell that tllT you wear them a week or so. There's only one sure way of avoid ing the flat-iron-faked Garment.. That's to make sure, before you buy, that the Coat or Overcoat bears the label of the "Sincerity" Clothes Makers. . And, that label reads SINCERITY CLOTHES ' made and guaranteed by Kuh, Nathan a, Fischer Co. CHICAGO ANEW YORKER. THE OTHER DAT SAID THE NEW COURTNEY STORE IS AS FINE AS ANY OF ITS .KINO IN NEW YORK.

OFFICERS HOPE 10 LOCATE PtRRY SOON ColleetloM of ravin Tag oa Thirtieth Street 'property Eajolned Twraty-toarth l.lhrly to follow. The. coroner neld nn Inquest ovrr the body of "Steve" or KAhnstlan Scldllk yester day morning at a. m. After examining the evidence In the case the Jury brought j In a rdict of murder, declaring that the i deceased rams to his death a the direct result of a blow delivered at the hands of James Perry while the two were together In the employ of the Ctidahy Packing com pany. The Implement of death was a meat hook, rnich an la used for hanging carcasses on. The date' of the sssault was Septem ber 13. The enrly efforts to locate Perry were fruitless aa he had gone from South Omaha on the day of the awtault. The belief of the police was that Perry had gone to Kansaa City, and such was reported by hla friends. The police relaxed their ef forts later, because little of the seriousness of the man's condition reached their ears. It la reported to this department from Kansas City that the authorities there have located Perry and have a direct line to his apprehension. Acting on this report Detective 'P. H. Shields left Thursday night Tor Kansas City. Me knows Perry and will visit the packing houses and make the arrest If If prtve correct that Perry Is working there. . The funer 1 arrangements have not been made, awaiting the arrival of a brother from Chicago. It has been learned that Beidlik. who la a man ut middle age, has a share In his fathers estHte In Poland. Ills share amounts to 11.000. An adminis trator hat not aa yet been appointed. Rig Building Perm Ha. Several largw building permits were taken out yesterday by the Omaha Packing com pany. The total valuutlun of the bui,dliis under construction la about f),u00. 'ii.ee buildings are already well under way. The otlice, located at Hie north end of the 1114 n building, U fixed at 118,000. A stoiagc building la contemplated which will cost .y,000, and a pumping house and its equip ment of tanks will cunt 115.000. The pump ing house Is located Just north of the ne tack and conslsta of about three stcrl' of frame building. Work on the plant has been going on uninterruptedly, and the de partment's essentials for, caring for the beef products are almost at the point of completion. One of these was the casing department, which had not been anclis-d at the time when killing began at the PirtnU Tha men were obliged to work In the open air and many of them caught cold. Thin has been remedied now. The hog killing and sheep slaughtering floors have not been advanced far enough to pre pare for Immediate uae. ';'' ' ravin-. Tax Enjoined. The ever convenient Injunction has again landed on the city treasurer. He Is now enjoined from attempting to collect special taxes to pay for the paving of Thirtieth street. This pavement has been laid for two years, but only a few dollars has ever own cuuecieu to inniuum mc cnjr iui u.( Issue of bonds. It Is understood that the greater portion of the property along this street from Q to Y is owned by the Jetler Brewing company. Thursday seven or eight property owners began an action be fore the district court to prevent the col lection of the special taxes. The grounds of the action la that the petition for paving was not legal and that many of the names were' secured by fraud, either being at tached by other than the property ownera or without their knowledge of Its force. It Is also asserted that some of the signers claimed to have property along the atreet, but in reality owned none. If the Injunc tion holds It will put the cost of the paving on the city at large. It is likely that similar Injunction will issue In the "case of the Twenty-fourth street paving and that on South Twenty fourth and Railroad avenue. The order of the court la only temporary and the case 111 probably come to trial at an early date. Registrars Pall to Qualify. The city clerk complalna that the recently appointed registrars hsve largely failed to qualify for the autumn registrations. As yet only eighteen have showed up and eleven of that number have qualified. There remain not many days until the time of the first day of registration, which la October la. Case In Supreme Cont. Ia C. Lamb, rt, representing the city of South Omaha in three cases which have been appealed to tho supreme court, stated yesterday Hint he was ready for tne trials which ar to come next week, beginning Tuesday. The first case is that of Nichol son agalnat the city In which Judgment was rendered against the city for $M0. It is g case of personal Injury. The second and moat Important case of the three is the case of the Commonwealth Realty com pany against the city In which the court decreed that the proprrty of this company was outside of the corporate limits of Soutn Omaha. The contention Is that the court had not the right to make such a decree. The case Involves a sum of money, but this ts thought - to be the secondary consider ation. The third case is that In which Begear won Judgment against Westcott, one of the licensed garbage haulers of the city. Hence the city Is hoi don for the amount of the damage. Westcott hauled garbage over the east extension of Missouri avenue for a year and was then sued by the plain tiff for damage arlalng from this source. It being cpntended that the extension was Il legal and therefore not a public thorough fare.

CHRIST DIVINE OR IMPOSTER Father Sherman nisconraes on the Uildenrra of the Divinity of Ctrlst. "Christ Is either the 011 of God or He Is a moral monstrosity," declared Father Thomas E. Sherman In his lecture last night at Crelghton college. Beforw a crowd that completely filled the auditorium he discussed the evidences of the divinity of Christ. The lecture Is one of the series that will continue nightly until Monday night. "A host of people have been Insidiously trying to take away the divine character of i Christ," he said. "They say He wai a hero, an ethical leader, a wise man but not of God. Taking the historic Christ na we have Him. I say He Is cither the God He claims to be or He Is a moral absur dity, a blasphemer." Christ, he said, represented Himself to His disciples aa the son of God and His own works designated Him such. He saved Himself from death as a blasphemer and finally died for making the claim. If He had been making false claims all His life, said the speaker. He w-ould have told the truth when It became a matter of life and death with Him. The truth of His claims Is also proved, said Father Sherman In His wisdom. He was an unschooled car penter, dropped Into a world of high cul ture, yet He did not make mistakes and did not hHve to take back what He said. "The miracles alone." continued the speaker, "would not proclaim Him the son of God. Moses turned the river Nile Into a river of blood. Ellas raised the dead. But you must study the way In which the I miracles were wrought. Tne miraculous power flowed out from Him. Christ was the source of miraculous power, as Js shown by the miracles." He also held the fact all the prophesies of the Old Testament prophets Were ful filled In Christ to be undisputable proof of His divinity. Then, In addition, Christ Himself was a prophet and His prophesies came true. At the close of the lecture Father Sher man answered a number of questions re garding the Catholic faith. . In reply to one of these he said: "The Catholics do not believe old relics In themselves have any power. The bones of the saints have no power, but they show the saints our regard for them and they grant us special favors." He also defended the celibacy of the clergy on the grounds an 'unmarried man could devote hla entire life to the church while a married man ought to devote the best part of hla life to his wife snd chil dren.

Money and the Ranks. SOUTH OMAHA. Oct. 12. (To the Editor of The Bee.) Tour editorial, "Money Held Out of Banks,' In The Bee of. the 10th, strikes the keynote. I wrote an article on the same subject for the South Omaha Democrat, but they failed to publish It, as I believe they were afraid of stepping on someone's toes. At least twenty-five foreigners recently called on me and asked me to make them belts In which to carry their money, but In all cases I told the parties that If they were afraid to deposit their money and Insisted upon carrying It on their persons, I hoped they would he knocked down and robbed, aa they would be doing society and themselves a great wrong by divert ing money from tho regular channels of trade. I am a foreigner, but like to live like a white man. There ars some foreigners who only Intend to remain here long enough to accumulate a little wealth and then return to their native countries, where they were unable to make a living. The American depositories might be Im proved by postal savings banka. but regu lar bank depositories are better than car rying money around on one'a person. J. G. BLESSING. PATHETIC STORY IS A FAKE Police and Coroner Both Misled Story Told Over the Telephone. h Touched by the tale of sorrow snd ex treme affliction of poverty and death sent in by a woman who gave her name as Mrs. Watklns, 138 Pincknev street. Desk H'.-rgeant Havey at the police station de tailed a man to Investigate an alleged caso of destitution In a family named Beebc, living on Grand avenue between Eleventh and Twelfth streets, Friday evening. Havey's informant told him over the telephone a child died In the family thre days ago from want and sickness, and that ium,,.. oecausr of the poverty the family had I the house uncared for. It was further related mortification had set In and case was one of unusual urgency. the Emergency Officer McCarthy hurried to j the home of the Boebes, but round the t.ile of destitution wholly untrue. A child ud st- t o'clock Friday afternoon, but already It lay In a pur white coffin ready tor burial. McCarthy learned Coroner Bratley had also been misled by' the story of sn swtul condition of affairs, and Im mediately hurried to the place with a child's coffin, but wus turned back by the family, which asserted Its entire capability of caring for Its own snd resented any offers of charity. LAST MONTH'S POLICE RECORD Aetaal Reaalta Disclosed by Chief Danaha ta Satisfy Crlttea f Department. Sinister newspaper attack made upon th nolle department relative to the stand ard of efficiency Induced Chief of Police Donahue to refer to his record for the tart month Saturday mornlrg. Th chief pre sented th record of arrests and cmvlc tlons secured during the month from Sep tember M. 19ft. to October 10 11. whlih. he said, was s fslr TlKrlon of th actual work of th police de-mrtment each month. Chief Donahue ss'd: It seoms to be the opinion of our crrrlcs thst the polh- sr sitting around idle, but I will present a few figure that have be-n taken from the actual reevirda of the de partment, which will apeak for themselves. sgd the public Is then free to draw Its own conclusions aa to Lis Inefficiency of the An Unrivaled Display force. Prom September 10, 1908. to Octo ber 10, 19M. inclusive, the police arrested 1.0H9 persons, which la not such a bad rec ord. I think. Of tho persons arrested, ISO were convicted In court and sentenced or lined snd 539 were given a limited number of hours to get out of the city: sixteen were fugitives from Justice and were de livered to officers of other Jurisdictions and twenty-five were bound over to await the action of the district court for offenses such aa burglary, rotbery or grand lar ceny. Of the twenty-five who were bound over to the district court, three pleaded guilty last week and were sentenced to five years In the penitentiary, while we believe we have sufficient evidence sgalnst the others to warrant convictions. "In addition to this work the police re covered over 12,000 worth of stolen prop erty. I think with the force we have this record Is a pretty creditable showing."
