The executive committee of the CWIo Federation Thursday morning mailed'' to Governor Sheldon tha formal charges against the Board of Fire and Police Com missioners of Omaha. These charges are marked "additional and supplemental com plaint," and are to be taken together with those filed under the Mickey regime. The names f T. J. Mahonejr, A. B. Bomers, W. T. Graham. Isaac W. Carpenter and C. S. Hayward, executive committeemen, are signed to the document Aside from making the same complaint as before that saloons are kept open In this city on Sundays, the ' federation now registers a protest against the evil of prise fighting, which It la said Is conducted "notoriously" without any restraint from the board. After reviewing the fact of the former complaint and lu preliminary hearing be fore Governor Mickey at the Millard hotel and all the circumstances attendant, the complaint states: That upon the first Sunday following said "th of November, 1!, numerous pro prietors of saloons for the sale of malt, spirituous and vinous liquors In the city of Omaha, kept their places of business closed and did not, on said day. engage In the sale of said liquors and thereafter from on or about the Sfond Sunday after said th of November. I!i6, to and Including the first Sunday of January of 1907, the police de partment of the city of Omaha, exercised a degree of vigilance, for many years Ignored and unknown. In the arresting of proprietors and bartenders, who undertook to engage In the sale of malt, spirituous and vinous liquors on the first day of the week, commonly called Sunday, and through such exercise and diligence caused holders of saloon licenses In said city, quite gen erally, to refrain from the sale of such liquors upon Sundays, Takes I'p Those Orders. The document then recites the fact and circumstances of the order Issued by CMef of Police Donahue January 12 to his subor- A Reasonable Plea For The Stomach If Your Stomach Is Lacking In Digestive Power, Why Not Help the Stomach lo lu Work Especially Whea It Costs Nothing To Try?

Fisher Is charged by other colored men with having robbed the pockets of a drunken negro while ap parently engaged In aldtng'hlm to maintain his feet. The victim fell while walking between two friends, who were helping him home, and Fisher stepped Up behind and as he put his arms around the fallen negro as though to raise him, he Is said to have run -his hands Into his pockets and taken $10.10. Fisher has a bad record with the police for such work, and as he has threatened Detective D rummy's life, the officers took no chances In placing him under arrest. He had to be knocked down before he would submit. An open Jackkntfe was found In his pockets, but he was not given time to draw any weapons. Watch for our broken lot sale ad In Fri day's Boe.

It la possible the Wabash and Chicago Great Western will stand together against the abolition of the proportional rate through Omaha on grain originating In Iowa. Local officials of neither road have received notice from their superiors of any change. In tariffs and they announce they will continue to plan their business on the old basis. The grain men are unable to learn that either road has filed new tariffs with the Interstate Commerce commission. If they have not, these two roa,ds, at least, cannot do away with the proportional March L as less than thirty days (Inter venes between the present snd that date. Secretary McVann of the Grain exchange returned to Omaha Thursday after several days' absence and Immediately began to look Into the situation. He said he could not tell what would be done until some offi cial communication from the various roads had been secured and a meeting had been held of the transportation committee of the exchange. "I am Just back and do not know what Is the position of the Wabash," said Mr. McVann. "I hope it ts true the road Is not a party to the agreement. The Iowa roads have been fighting us all along In order toiaul the grain to Chicago, and this la Just another of the many moves they have made. If It succeeds, the blow will be a heavy one to Omaha." ' Mr. McVann says there Is plenty of ground for taking the matter before the Interstate Commerce commission and many reasons why Omaha should win. The transportation oommlttee of the exchange will meet within a few days to decide on a course of action. Bl- Point of laterest. "The t raffle Interests of the entire coun try are watching the controversy between the Cedar Rapids & Iowa City Interurban railroad and the Chicago ft Northwestern." said Secretary McVann. He had Just re turned from Cedar Rapids, la., where he was the principal witness In the hearing of the case before the Interstate Commerce commission. "It is the first case under the new pro vision of the Interstate commerce law which gives the commission power to fix Joint through rates where the railroads concerned fall to do so. The Iowa inter urban lines are aggressively officered and managed. Thoy are vitally Interested, as they are all freight carriers and have been refused participation in the Joint tariffs of the railroads in an effort of the latter to shut them out of business. The Cedar Rapids rrtad asked the commission to give It Joint tariffs. The lnterurbans carry a large amount of freight. On the Cedar Rapids St Iowa City Interurban, which is only twenty eight miles in length, 960 cars a year origi nate. I was called as a witness In the case because Linn county is my home county and I am familiar with railroad conditions there. . "The defendant was allowed twenty-five days to prepare and present Its side of the case, and the next hearing will be awaited with much Interest." .... t Threaten loss of Tralas. Railroad men at local headquarters say residents along . the branch lines of the roads In Nebraska will lose most of their passenger trains If the proposed reduction In passenger rates is made. The officials declare that passenger service in Nebraska Is maintained at an absolute loss snd that although a few of the- through trains dur ing the summer season may make a profit, yet the state as a whole, Including the sparsely settled districts, shows a loss. It la a question In Nebraska if the pas senger service pays a fair share of the operating expenses," said one of the opera ting officials in Omaha Thursday. "Over LOCO miles of passenger service have been added In Nebraska in the last, two years on branch lines which penetrate new sec stions of the state, all for the purpose of furnishing passenger service Into those thinly Inhabited sections for the benefit of homeseekers and the population living along these lines. At the request of com mercial and civic bodies In western half of the state thousands of miles of passen ger service were put In and are now main tained solely to promote these sections. Many trains do not earn 40 cents a mile as against an operating cost of 90 cents a mile. The population of Nebraska is fif teen per square mile as against eighty-six la Illinois, forty In Iowa, 187 in France, Ml in England and twenty-three In the United States. Any reduction In the maximum rates would no doubt sweep away the en tire fabrio of cheaper excursion rates made use of so largely by the working classes of the state. It would be very questionable it the roads could further maintain, even for reasons' based on policy of develop ment, many of the branch passenger trains now run solely for these reasons. accessor to Rassell.

TREAT FOR THE MUSKM-OVERS fearer at Madam Dekssisss.Htlsk Pleases I.arjre and Critical Aadleaee. Mme. Pchumsnn-Hetnk charmed one of the most fashionable and critical surl ences that has assembled this season at a recital given last night at the Boyd. Her presence Is charming; a thorough wholesomeness seems to permeate her songs that Is fairly captivating. So much has been written In truthful praise of this great artist that little or nothing can be said that would add a single ray to her Justly earned International fame. She com bines with her great and glorious vole the ability to Interpret with rare Intelligence the varied moods of the masters whose work she so essays. Whether In Herman or French, her enunciation la equally clear and distinct. Her great voice, that melts away Into the most beautiful head tones. so flexible, such perfection of tone placing, such tremendous power. Is something 'to be remembered for a long time. The great contralto first gave a group of four songs; an aria from the opera "Mltrane" by Rossi, "Du Blst Die Ruh" by Schubert, "Wohen" by Schubert and "Der Wanderer" by the same composer. of which the last named created perhaps the best Impression, the audience being ah. solutely Insistent In Its demand for an encpre, which was most graciously given. The recitative and area following. "But the Lord Is Mindful of His Own." This, was magnificent In Its sincerity and depth of feeling. ' The second series of songs Included "Helmwfh" by Hugo Wolf. "Die Drel Zlgeuner" by Llsit and "Wldmung" by Schumann. A lightness of touch was dis played In the second number which was most alluring as was also the heartfelt manner In which the Bchuminn number was given. Then a Brahms' song! Oh. such songs as Brahms has written! The music goes right Into your heart, and beautifully was the "Bapphlsche Ode" given, followed by six Hungarian Gypsy songs. In this cycle Is an Immense range for the portrayal of the various emotions which was fully met by the vocal equipment and temperament of this artist. Her last number was the prison scene from "Der Prophet" by Meye. beer. The recitative was most exacting in its Intensity, followed by the aria, which was a perfect Joy. At the conclusion the entire audience de fled all Omaha conventions and stayed in their seats calling for more and still more, but the artist had already been more than generous with her encores and so the house was left with tbe beautiful aria in their minds and hearts. Mme. Schumann-Helnk was finely accom panied by Miss Helen Schaul. who also gave I.asxt'8 "LlebstJ-auro," "Koch ZWItstag auf Iroldhangen" by .Oreig, and Llsxi's "Rhapsodic Hongrolse No. 8" In very fin ished style.

On the first anniversary of his debauch the same dog again raised ned and a few other things in the saloon Thursday night. running back and forth on top of the bar as though he had been opening a few , cold ones all by himself and was getting hilarious. He knocked down the telephone as on the previous occasion, and again the girl at central heard the puszllng mes sage. 8he notified the police and, as the dog's orgle of the same night a year ago was recalled. Patrolman Hudson was sent to quiet the mischievous animal. He found three .other dogs on the outside aiding in the work of making a noise.
