GAME TRIED ONCE TOO OFTEN
Kimm City Man Patau OsT Class far
DUanl, tat Falls on tooon
Attempt.
P. J. Lynch, a young; man who laid ha
camt from Kansas City, attempted the diffi
cult gam of palming off worthleaa stones In
place of diamonds on Omaha pawnbrokers
early Thursday evening, and had his seal
not carried him too far he would hare es
caped arrest.! Lynch rial ted the store of
Samuel Robinson, l20tt Dodge street, first,
where he secured $100 on a diamond, but
Just as the money was being ' passed he
slipped a piece of glass to the proprietor
In place of the good stone, and the trade
was not discovered until the customer had
gene.
The telephone wires connecting the fran
tlo pawnbroker with the police station Im
mediately began to grow hot In their ef
forts to convey the excited appeals and
explanations of Robinson, but by the time
Desk Sergeant Marshall had secured an
Idea of what had occurred an earnest re
quest for a policeman from Henry Gross'
store, US North Sixteenth street, was sent
In on another wire. Detectives Donohoe
and Mitchell and Emergency Officer Hell
were there within a short time and found
the man, who proved to be Lynch, sur
rounded by a crowd of chattering people
threatening to do him harm.
Lynch had secured $30 from Gross by the
same meana he had fleeced Robinson, but
Gross discovered the game too soon. His
clerk struck Lynch In the face and he was
compelled to return the money and then
wait for the police. A large crowd col
lected and Lynch was glad to be taken
Into the custody and under" the protection
of the police.
Deputy County Attorney Magney Investi
gated the case Friday morning and said he
did not think It likely a complaint would
be filed against Lynch on the charge of
obtaining money under false pretenses, as
the evidence did not appear ooaolaalvs
enough to warrant a conviction on that
charge. Mr. Magney said he would Investi
gate further,' however, and see what could
be dona If a complaint charging htm with
obtaining money under false pretenses .Is
not filed It Is probable Lynch will be
charged with being a vagrant and given a
long term Jail sentence.

AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA
Commercial Club Appeari as Fsotor is
Annexation FiebU
NO SUCH ORGANIZATION REALLY EXISTS
Died Five Tears Ago Because Members
Larked Interest Enough to
Induce Them to Keep
Dsn Paid I p.
"The report that the 8outh Omaha Com
mercial club has sent a letter to all the
legislators at Lincoln, for it Is so re
ported, has caused a smile to spread over
the anxious faces of the antl-annexatlon-Ists.
If ever there was a representative
organisation In the city and If anyone
ever did stand up for South Omaha's best
interests, the self-styled South Omaha
Commercial club Is not It nor has It done
anything remarkable for the city. It has
had a feeble, halting existence and only
seml-occaslonally has Its feeble efforts
suggested a suspicion of life. Once there
was a membership of nearly a hundred,
but today there are not more than six
who have paid their duea These have an
nually elected each other to the quasi
honors of Its offices. I was a member of
the organisation at Its height," said W.
W. Fisher yesterday. "At that time it gave
promise of a strong organisation; but to
claim any weight for It as It Is today Is
folly and the whole city knows It. We are
not criticising any Individual who chooses
to call himself a member of the club, but
of this handful of men to assume that
they in any way represent the complete
and unified sentiment of the people of this
city Is ridiculous. It takes a whole lot of
audacity for a half dozen' politicians to
get together and address a letter to the
Nebraska legislature under the guise of the
South Omaha Commercial club. The fact
Is the club has been defunct for the past
five years or more. Its present adherents
can be named on the fingers of one hand.
"The sentiment In favor of annexation
Is rapidly growing. Appropriations have
already been made for the principal Im
provements which the city needs. If any
more pavement is desired It can always
be secured by petition In the same manner
that It may be secured today. The affairs
of South Omaha are not likely to be
neglected when this end of the city wilt
be represented by four councllmen. They
will be In a position to demand of Omaha
recognition of all just claims and demands.
Besides this, at least two more councllmen
on the south side of the city, as It now
stands, would be Inclined to favor the de
mands of South Omaha for the sake of
their assistance In matters affecting both
sections. The councllmen from the outly
ing wards would likewise seek South
Omaha's four representatives to compel
the representation of the business districts
to deal fairly with the outskirts. Few
people seem to realise that annexation
means annexation. It Is a mutual union,
and when accomplished the cities sre one
and the same and there Is no South Omaha.
The lines are down and vanished. This will
be a section of which the whole city Is
proud. Back of the Influence of the coun
cllmen themselves will be the powerful
influence of the stock yards and the pack
ers, whose requests !n the matter of Im
provements to accommodate their Interests
will never be Ignored. Their Interests are
the Interests of South Omaha as a whole
for their existence here Is the only reason
for the presence of the surrounding city.
No section of the city is going to neglect
Its greatest Industries."
Coat' of Rinnlns City.
The following table, prepared by the city
clerk, shows the cost of running the city
government during the last eight years.
Since 1899 the city appropriations have
Jumped up $124,151.91, an average Increase
of $15,618.86 each" year. ' The legislature will
be asked for an Increase amounting to
$12,000. which will certainly be swelled by
about $6,000 before the end of the year from
the general collections In the wsy of fines,
licenses and other sources. Following are
the Items:
1908 (estimated).... $246,000.00
1907 (estimated) ZJ6,uK).0O
1908 212,270.75
1905 t... 1,1454
1904 156,942 13
1903 144,1X0 22
19n$ 131.9A4.13
19i 104,471.87
1900 81.32Ti.3l
1K9 88.118.84
The estimates for 1907 and 1908 are. In the
judgment of the city clerk, very conserva
tive. In fact, they will be much under the
actual figures. The resources for revenues
outside of the levy are at the present tlmo
yielding about $70,000 annually. This money
la added to the levy. The balance at the j
end of last year was $X,000 or a little more.
This year It will be practically the same.
Lssorer breaks Ilia Lee.
Frank Severln. 173 South Twenty-second
street, broke his leg last night at the
Omaha Packing plant. He was walking
down the platform leading from the ma
chine shops and In the obscure light fell
heavily. Though the fall was not great, ha
broke his right leg near the hip. He Is a
man of nearly 60 years and It Is possible
that his bones are brittle. He was taken
to the timekeeper's office and (he Brewer
ambulance took him to the South Omaha
hospital. The man has been In the ser
vice for several years and has a family
dependent on him. The break la likely to
be serious for it Is so near the hip.
Greek Rests from His Tramp.
Nicholas Oelrlge, a Greek, was fined for
vagrancy yesterday morning by Judge
King. After this was imposed a complaint
was filed charging him with securing
money under false pretenses. He came to
South Omaha the first of the month and
made the claim that he was walking around
the world on a wager. He was of good
appearance and easily deceived ths Greek
population with his story. The athletic so
cieties assisted him and took up collections
to assist him In his record-breaking tramp.
He secured about $160 and proceeded to
live high in Omaha until the Greeks here
awoke to the hoax he was playing. They
eaused his arrest on the vagrancy charge.
Ha will not be tried on a state complaint
for swindling the Greeks out of their money
because he did not secure enough from any
one person to make a major offrnse.
Bsrglsr Raiueki Hoose.
Joseph Pankowski, 1SOJ North Twenty-
ninth street, reported to the polios last
night that a burglar entered his house
about 1 a. m. yesterday morning and stole
a silver watch. The man got In by cut
ting a panel out of the kitchen door and
opening It from the Inside. He then opened
all the other doors as avenues of escape
and entered every room and turned every
thing inside out. Mrs. Pankowski was
awakened while he was In her bedroom.
but was afraid to cry out until he had
gone. The burglar secured no cash. The
burglary was not reported until late lost
night.

FIJIANS WERE CANNIBALS
Mrs. Wells Tells of the Woaderfal
Chase Chrlstiaaitr Wroeght
la Them.
Mrs. W. D. Wells gave the fourth of her
series of lectures Thursday at the First
Presbyterian church, when she again In
terested her audience by her story of the
marvelous changes wrought by the mis
sionaries in the island world of the Pa
cific. She spoke principally of the Fiji
islands. The FIJlans are a mixed race,
part Polynesian and part Papuan. She
gave a glimpse of their mode of living
before Christianity was Introduced, and ths
moral degradation that seemed almost like
hateful slanler on humanity. Still, she
said, they were people of superior ability,
as they built very good homes, were ex
pert weavers, carvers and potters, but
with all the interest one might take In
these accomplishments one could not blind
himself to the awful terror and ugliness
in the life of these natives.
Cannibalism, occasional on many of the
islands, was here an established custom.
The people were also superstitious. Their
state of degradation could not be excused
by famine or overpopulation, as (be soil
was rich and easily able to sustain twice
the population.
"The story of the early missionaries to
these bloodstained islands is truly wonder
ful," said Mrs. Wells. "Some of the names
tbat stand out prumiueuUy is this great
reformation are Rev. John Hunt, Rev. Mr.
Lythe and Mr. James Calvert. It seems
almost impossible, but so thoroughly have
these people embraced Christianity that
they are now sending out their own mis
sionaries to New Britain, New Ireland and
New Oulnea, and f6,0o0 Is given by them
yearly for missionary work. The New
Hebrides and Melanesia have undergone
just as great a reformation. They have
established mission training schools and
from all of the islands boys and girls are
sent away for training lasting seven or
eight years, and are then sent back to
their own people, where they spread their
religious training. Mrs. Wells' next lecture
will be principally about New Zealand.
OVERCOAT THIEVES ARE BUSY
Dlsplar of Cold Wave Flasjr Pats the
Costless Men on the Active
List.
The display of the cold wave banner by
the local weather observer Thursday morn
ing sent a chill feeling Into the bones of
those who had no overcoats and a deter
mination Into their heads to secure the
necessary garments, no matter In what
manner nor by what meana Hence over
coat thieves were busy in Omaha during
the day and a number of losses were re
ported. Some person or persons raided the coat
rack at the Byrne-Hammer Dry Goods
company's store. Ninth and Howard streets,
and three coats were taken. The losers
wero George Roach, Louis Gllnn and Bert
Liddell.
L. J. Chambers, 1301 Harney street, told
the police his coat was stolen from the sa
loon at 101 South Thirteenth street.
GROCERY STOCK SCORCHED
Families Living; Over Store of Hrmaa
GUlasky Rooted Oot la
the Cold.
Fire which broke out in the rear of the
building 'did considerable damage to the
grocery store of Hyman Gillnsky, 1010
North Sixteenth street, at 11:30 o'clock
Thursday night. The back of the room was
filled with flames when the firemen ar
rived and spread to the front, scorching the
entire store. Streams of water were played
Into the place from the back door until
the flames were extinguished, as much
troublo was experienced In gaining en
trance at the, front. It being at last neces
sary to break in the door.
The proprietor of the store was in Coun
