CERTAINLY THEJJRANGE BELT Omaha Proves Claim to Summer Re sort Through Action of Col onel Ryder. "1 was at Valley yesterday," said John J. Ryder, clerk of the Board of County commissioners Wednesday morning. "What was you doing there?" asked County Auditor Smith. "Picking oranges," said the colonel, with out "batting an eye." Picking oranges?" exclaimed Mr. Smith. "Yes." drawled Mr. Ryder. The answer could not have been more nonchalant If It had been m answer to the remark that It was a fine day. Mr. Ryder went on writ ing In a large book. Mr. Smith looked at him and then sadly shook hts head. "Too bad, too bad," he said to James Ruan, who happened to be In the room. "Yes, It Is," acquiesced Mr. Ruan, and the two men regarded Mr. Ryder sadly. "So young, too, and with a bright future before him," continued Mr. Ruan, and Mr. Smith nodded his head slowly and sadly. Mr. Ryder looked up. "Were you speaking?" he asked. , "8ee, he Is coming to," exclaimed Mr. Smith, y "Hopefie will not get violent," said Mr. Ruan. Then up rose Colonel Ryder. He opened a drawer and took from It a big yellow object hanging from a long twig, with the green leaves still attached. The two men came forward. "I said I was picking oranges," said Mr. Ryder, "and here's the proof." Mr. Ryder accompanied the commissioners on a trip through the country Tuesday and he picked the orangee from one of the trees of Florist Nightengale at Valley. The fruit Is large, the skin very thin and the flavor Is said to be unsurpassed. Mr. Nightengale expects to have an exhibit of oranges, lemons and pomegranates grown In Douglas county at the next Ak-Sar-Ben celebration. His two "mallgners" withdrew their In sinuations after admiring the fruit. REALTY MEN TALK ETHICS Some Thlnlt it Wron to Take Options I'nleas Bale Is Practically Certain. Professional ethical problems were dis cussed at length at the regular weekly meeting of the Reat Eat ate exchange Wednesday at the Commercial club, the questions of taking options and securing exclusive sale rights on property being gen erally discussed by members of the ex change. D. V. Bholes gave It as his opinion that options should not be taken unless the chances for sale were reasonably sura, as the securing of an option at a high price tended to give the owner a fictitious Ideal of the actual value of the property. , Mr.j Sholes also thought newspaper advertising hmild hnt Km murte nf fsrnnertv wtthniif! . having the exclusive sale privileges of it. W. H. Gates broached the question of whether It was proper for a broker to sell property advertised by another broker with out consulting the latter. A. P. Tukey expressed the opinion that such conduct was not strictly ethical, but was on business principles, and the ordi nary real estate firm gained as much In commissions as It lost In this respect. Q. C. Wallace said he did not believe ethics could be made Into hard and fast rules, and the general tendency of business was to ward securing the exclusive sale privileges of all property listed, which would solve all ethical problems of the nature under discussion. After a formal ballot I. Slbbemsen, who Is connected with Btull Bros., was ad mitted to membership In the exchange. An Invitation from an oil company at Tulsa, Okl., to Invest In the stock was declined by the exchange. COUNTY COURTTKEEPS POWER Rat Deprived' of Authority Over Juveniles by Operation of New Law. The operation of the Juvenile court law does not take from the county court the Jurisdiction which It has always held over delinquent children. This Is the opinion of Judge Troup as expreeaed Wednesday, when he sustained the motion of the Nebraska Children's lliume society to quash the application of Charles Holton for a writ of habeas corpus. Holton Uvea in Nebraska City and his children were placed In the home by order of the county court. Judge Troup held that the operation of the Juvenile court In no way curtails the powers at the county court.

MILLER OS DOG FIGHTS Genial President sf Humans Society is Determined to Vin. nannannfl MIZZLES BARBAROUS, MAYOR MISTAKEN Rabies tsslas n Rare Disease and ropnlar Error Alone Responsi ble for b.e L'proar Made Against the I)o(. "How do you like your dog fight as far as you have got?" was the question which a Bee reporter asked Dr. Miller yesterday. The doctor said In reply: "I don't like dog rights. I never did. I spent much time and some money In stopping real dog fights In Omaha when I was a much younger man than 1 am now.' I suppose you mean by my dog light the light I am making against official and all other forms of cruelty to the dog. I am sorry that 1 was I forced by the city council and Mayor Dahl man Into another controversy In defense of the dog and society against an Inhuman wrong. 1 tried hard to avoid It through Chief Donahue by appeals to Mayor Dahl man before he Issued his proclamation and publicly afterward. But Mayor Dahlman was defiant to the point of Insolence, and as president of the Nebraska Humane so ciety and as a cltlien I had to fight against It as 1 1 am now fighting, or brand myself a craven and a coward. I know the cost and the pain of contending against a tra dition which feeds on fears of the old mad dog ghost Men sneer who do not know and call names which I sometimes call back. Not In nearly two generations have our homes been threatened by that Instru ment of. torture the muxile. The great New York Times sold a few days ago, 'No gentleman would put a muisle on a dog.' " Mad Do Theory. "But how do you account for the popular Insistence upon the mad dog theory who is responsible for It?" "I will answer that In this way: for hun dreds of years the Christian world was taught to believe In a literal physical hell of fire and brimstone In which unrepentant sinners. Including infant Innocents, have to suffer everlasting punishment at the hands of an avenging Ood. The Holy Bible said so. and the man In the pulpit who dared to doubt or failed to preach the horrible doc trine would have been in danger of being burned at the stake. I distinctly remem ber hearing all this monstrous stuff preached when I was a boy, and even after I was a man. Is there a man In any pulpit In America who would, dare to preach that doctrine now to an average congregation of white men and women? But It took more than an hundred years In our country for ministers of Christ to break away from the shackles Imposed upon them by re ligious superstition. Intolerance and big otry. Why? Because If they had gored to speak from their conscience and their con victions they would have been arraigned, tried by ecclesiastical court organised to convict them of heresy, branded as religious Infidels and outlaws before the world. There were no Lovelands In those days. This Is an Illustration of my answer to The Bee's very pertinent question which, as I come to It, Is this: Medical teachers teach what they have been taught to teach about rabies canlna. Like the preacher of hell fire and damnation, they must be or thodox.' Dr. Thomas Watson, for Instance, the great London practitioner and teacher, never saw a case of rabies In his great practice In the greatest city In the world, but he accepted what had been taught and told him by others. And so It goes. The average medical man of our day falls into line, accepts all he reads about the musty old tradition, and every wild cry Of 'Mad dog! mad dog!' Is accepted by him as a oorreot diagnosis,' Weir Mitchell's Statement. "I suppose you must have noticed the statement In a leading editorial in The Bee yesterday In which Weir Mitchell and some of the greatest medical minds of the coun try contend that hydrophobia Is not caused by dog bites V "Indeed, I did notice It. That editorial was simply superb. Not merely In proving by one of the greatest medical men on earth that dog bites do not produce the disease which medical error and popular Ignorance call rabies canlna, but In Its showing of the priceless value of the dog as the protector of the home. It was an admirable article. Dr. Weir Mitchell Is a past and present grand master of medical science. His fame covers the civilized world. His support of my own view, advo cated by me for thirty years without the aids or means of exhaustive research. Is a vindication from which medical Ignora muses and thousands of good but deluded people In Omaha can make no successful appeal. Weir Mitchell la supported In his views by the greatest medical men In the world, and yet I am personally Insulted and derided by medical quacks and other nobodies In Omaha tor my efforts In trying to relieve people of fear of a disease which Dr. Mitchell says has no existence. I said the same thing upder a storm of reproaches twenty years before Dr. Mitchell did, with no pretense to the knowledge upon which he based the actual science of the subject." Only Pities Dahlman. "Mayor Dahlman seems to have retracted his order for dog shooting. What have you to any to that?" "I have nofiing unkind to say of Mayor Dahlman, nor can I longer discuss him seriously. I am really sorry for him. In his first proclamation he said there waa no rabies In Omaha. In his latest he says the town Is full of It. I only say to all men and women In Omaha, again and again, not as a matter of mypoor personal opin ion, but as a scientific fact, that there is, and. never was, a case of rabies canlna in Omaha In Its entire history." "Tou have said to one of the heads of The Bee staff, I am Informed, that this dog question has already beooma a political question. Do you confirm the truth of that statement?" ' "I do, and. If you will kindly permit me, I will tell you why. It Is because it Is not In the blood of free American cltlsens to allow the civil authority to strike a blow at their homes and its dearest associations without striking back. Tholr own stout weapon Is the ballot and no men on earth know better when and how to use it than the men of Omaha of all classes, backed by their wives and children. If I do not much miss my reckoning there will be plenty of live thunder all around the sky when the next city election comes off unless that dog-muxsle ordinance Is promptly re pealed, and such Is the feelings that even If that should be done, either now or later on. I doubt very much whether the ques tion can be kept out of the next municipal election. 'Please let me repeat, the great New Tork Times recently said, 'No gentleman would muxsle a dog.'

SIX-STORY STORE BUILDING Connieroial ftruutnrfl Will Be Trtctsd at Sixteenth and Hsrnsj Streets. HOTEL PLANS NOT TO BE CARRIED OUT Loral Firm le to Condnet n Irae Clothlnar Business nnd Rent Rest of Ilnlldlne for Offices. Official confirmation has been received of The Bee's announcement that a large build ing, probably constructed of reinforced concrete, will be erected on the vacant corner at Sixteenth and Harney streets. The new building, for which negotiations are nearly consummated, will be a six story store and office building and will be erected on the south half of the vacant lot adjoining the store of me Miller, Stew art & Beaton Carpet company. The first three floors of the new building will be occupied by a local firm. J. A. Swanson was said to be the man, but Mr, Swahson last night denied the report. Plans were drawn by a local firm of architects for a ten-story hotel, which was being planned by Philadelphia capitalists In ense the whole lot could be secured. The rrlco asked for the entire corner was tOO.OOO. which was regarded as prohibitive and negotiations for the hotel have fallen through. The other tentative pla for a six-story store and office building, as given In The Bee, will be carried out by local persons, ! with whom Oeorge Co., which represent the local syndicate owning the corner, are finishing negotiations. The whole corner. It will be remembered. Is 132x 99 feet, and the new store and office building will have a frontage of 66 feet on Sixteenth street and a depth of 99 feet, leaving an additional small corner lot of ffcix99 feet, which will be held by the local syndicate. The plans for the new office and store building will probably be prepared by the i firm of Fisher A Lawrle, who' have been i consulted by the local persons furnishing the capital for the new building. Relnforeed Concrete. Construction plans have been prepared for a building of reinforced concrete, which would increase the net cost of the building 10 or ID per cent, but thin style of con struction has not been definitely decided upon and the new building may be erected of stone and brick along lines similar to those of the surrounding buildings of the Miller, Stewart A Beaton Carpet company, the Hoagland block and the Bennett store. The desirable lot has ben held five years by the local syndicate and at no time waa It anxious to dispose of the whole lot, as the erection of a new and costly building on half of the lot would ma terially enhance the value of the remain ing half. Numerous options have been se cured on the lots, but It has remained for local capital to Improve them, nnd this will be done In n manner commensurate Willi LU IIIHIL H ' " t ' ' w choice corner. The approximate cost of the new building will be over SlflO.WO, and probably about 1300,000 If the Interior Is decorated elab orately.

Al though the bulk of business In Omaha has been In com, an Important Increase Is recorded In the receipts of wheat, which were 600,000 bushels during the last month as against 317,000 bushels during March, 1906. This proportionate gain Is shown to be of a permanent nature when it la seen that the total wheat recelpta since January 1, were 1,930.800 bushels, as compared with lees than half that amount, 808,700 bushels, during the first three months of last year. Substantial Increases also are recorded In the receipts of corn and oats during the last three months over the same period of 1906. Flattering for All Grains.
