CHRISTIAN KEN AND UPRIGHT CITIZENS
Bttaeati f the Uw, Wh IJves
a-n Practice lav Osrty
Haaar to th Profession.
Three lawyers, three Christian gentl
moo. three conscientiously upright citl
aim," who died during the last year, were
honored by a leathering of their fellow at
torneys In court room No. 1 at the oourt
house Saturday morning. The seven Judges
of the distrlot bench presided, with Judge
Troup aa spokesman. The three men In
whose memory the meeting was called by
the Douglas County Bar association were:
Joseph 1L Blair.
Charles El Morgan.
Frank Heller.
Resolutions upon the death of Judge
Blair, which occurred in Los Angeles, were
read by Charles A. Doss. Following the
reading he related Incidents MuHtratlve of
the large heartedness and generosity of
Judge Blair. He onoe overheard him say
to a man who was speaking disparagingly
of another, "Say no more; that man la
my friend and I will listen to no calumny
upon him."
Judge Jaoob Fawcett spoke of the life of
Judge Blair. He pronounced him "an
honest man, a fearlena Judge and a man
who abhorred fraud." It was unbearable
to him to see wrong triumphing, and if
there was any criticism that could be made
Upon him It wis when he had found dis
honesty cropping out in the trial of a case
he tried to get at the root of it and decide
the case in a manner to full the evil plot
and possibly not In Btxict accord witn
precedent. "In my heart I am glad
knew Judge Blair and I am sorry that he
I no more," he concluded.
Wharton Eulogises Morgan.
The resolutions on the late Charles R
Morgan were read by Louis D. Holm
who pronounced a tribute to him, upon bis
unimpeachable Integrity and his One Chrfs
tlan character. John C. Wharton, who
was Mr. Morgan's partner for two years,
tetf eloquently of the life lived by this
lawyer, a Hie of devotion to doing good
such as Is rarely seen. He showed ttat
Charles IS. Morgan was an altruist of
noblest type.
"I novtr knew another man so thoroughly
bonost, conscientious and upright as
Charles E. Morgan," he said. "His Ideals
were of the highest, the noble, the
grandest. He may not have been an
eloquent, profound or acute lawyer, but
he was a great lawyer in the highest sense
In which that adjective can be used. He
was an honor to his profession and to the
city. His mind was constantly looking
for a place where he could do good even
at the greatest Inconvenience to himself.
Few people knew it but I know that he
refused to marry and establish a home for
himself because he felt he could do greater
good with the money by giving It to
charity. Right after he came to Omaha
he made an arrangement by which be gave
one-tenth of his Income to the church and
harity. Later ha Increased this to one-
seventh and at the time of his death he
was devoting tltree-sevenths of his Income
to charitable work.
Active la Y. M. r. A. Werlr.
' lie early Interested himself in the work
of the Young Men's Christian asnuciation.
Us generous heart started the work of
building the new structure. I remember
when the board mot to take the first slept.
Mr. Morgan then said, 'Charity twgiD
at home' and Insisted that the board ought
to give 10,000 of the 1100,000 to be. raised.
Be Immediately wrote his check for ItiOO, the
first subscription to the building.
And when I accompanied him to Chi
cago to visit the specialist, who was to
tell him that a deadly diafase held him In
Its grasp, I saw another sldo of this man,
his sublime courage. He was not cost
down. He was exalted and talked pleas
antly of the future, concerning which he
did not worry, for he believed that Ood
would arrange ail for the best. This
courage upheld him to the end."
Former Assistant City Attorney Adams
also spoke of the rood work of Mr. Mor
gan. He told of his distributing thirty
$10 oheoks among the poor during the last
weeks of his life and other Incidents of
bis generosity.
Frank Heller, Hoble Man.
J. J. Boucher, In reading the resolutions
on Frank Heller, said:
"A glow of fellow reeling comes to me
now as I remember the nobleness of this
man who Is gone rrora us. There was
nothing small or mean about him. He did
much to soften the hard spots in life,"
Louis Berks also spoke of Mr. Heller,
telling of the enthusiasm he displayed and
the Joy he professed to find In the Juve
nile work In which he took such an aatlve
part. He bad a profound faith In the fu
ture life.
Judge Redlok responded on behalf of the
bench and paid rich tributes to the ster
ling worth of the three men who have
been taken from the Douglas county bar
In the last year. He dwelt feelingly on
the conscientiousness of Judge Blair, the
earnestness of Mr. Heller and the altru
ism of Mr. Morgan.
The resolutions were then ordered spread
upon the court records and copies sent to
the families of the three departed members,

The Modern Sacrifice
By A Victim
AM the most unfortunate of men I
Becausu of my 111 fitting Suit. I
am a Sacrifice to the Incompetence,
Ignorance, Indifference and Cupidity of
My two Arch Enemies the Tailor and Old
Dr. Goobo the Hot Flat Iron.
They're to blame for my Mental AnguUh
and Buffering
For between them they made my Suit
what It is they fed the flames of my Sac
rifice. First to begin was the Tailor he Cut
my Bult all wrong then to save money he
hurried It through a lot of Underpaid
Machine Operatives who slapped the DIN
fercnt Parts together In frenzied eagerness
to earn their Scant Pay.
Then, although the Defects were observ
able, even to a Novice, and should have
been corrected by Carefully taking the
ult apart and making It over again the
suit was given over to Old Dr. Ooose
the Hot Flat Iron who tried to press and
stretch and shrink out Actual Defects et
making by means of the Hot Flat Iron.
He "doped" In 8tyle and Shape for a
brief time only
When I saw that Suit at the store it
looked fine.
But a short time after I bad worn It. it
became as you now see It I was Sacrificed
for the Tailor and Old Dr. Ooose.
Oh! If I had only bought a "Sincerity
Bult"
I wouldn't have this Tale of Wee, not
much)
For "Sincerity Clothes" are Belf-Reepect
Clothes They fit and retain their Shape.
There's Dignity In the Smooth, Close em
brace of the Collar Bmartneus In the flat
well-fitting Lapels Style In the shapely
shoulders Class and distinction in every
"Sincerity" Suit.
For every "Sincerity" Bult Is carefully
and Sincerely made cot a single detail is
overlooked no mutter how trtfllng.
Erpert tailors do the Cutting Tailors ta
their finger tips and expert needle-workers
make the Suit Bew the Shape. Style,
Wear and Satisfaction Into the very Fab
ric. When each "Sincerity' Suit Is made up
It Is exhaustively Inspected If the leant
Defect Is fuund. the part is taken apart
and re-sewn not temporarily "doped" by
the Hot Flat Iron Old Dr. Goose.
A "Slnctrity" Suit Costs Its Makers a
whole lot more than the kind of Suit Fro
wearing
But, I would not have had to pay a sin
gle cent more for a "Sincerity" Suit than
I paid for this misfit.
'Sincerity Clothes" are sold by high
grade ready-to-wear dealers everywhere.

OFFICER SMITH SUSPENDED
Colored Policeman Admits He Slapped
White Woman la Fame
on Street.
Emory R. Smith, one of Omaha's two
colored police patrolmen, was suspended
from the force Friday night by Captain
Dunn upon Instructions from Chief Dona
hue, following oharges mads against him
by Mrs. Grace BIrnbaum, who accuses the
officer of having struck her on the street
and also using Improper language. The
assault was witnessed by a number of men
and Chief Donahue has the written state
ments of four of them, besides the written
charges of the victim. He also has the
written reply of the officer, In which he
confesses that he slapped the womaa once,
Mrs. BIrnbaum Uvea at 1706 Leavenworth
street and Is a niece of Zenas Stevens, 917
North Twenty-first street The encounter
occurred At Twenty-first and Cuming
streets, where Mrs. BIrnbaum had been at
the home of her uncle. Smith was off duty
and dressed In plain clothes at the time
the assault occurred.
The assault occurred at I o'clock Friday
evening. Bonis of the details of the oc
currence were reported to Captain Dunn
at the police station and he immediately
communicated them to Chief Donahue, re
celving instructions to divest Smith of hi
badge of authority and keys when he
hould report for duty on the third detail
at midnight.
John J. Qwln, 2002 Cuming street; Ben
Jamln F. Stewart, 923 North Twenty-first
street; John Sevens, ill North Twenty'
first street, and Nels Jensen, 2103 Cuming
street, are among the witnesses against
Smith. Each one of these signed state
ments, setting forth what they saw and
heard, and their testimony Is corroborative
of different portions of the story told by
Mrs. BIrnbaum herself.
After being suspended. Smith wrote
letter of explanation to Chief Donahue,
In which he says: "I slapped her Just
little with my hand In the face, but not
hard."
Mrs. BIrnbaum was unwilling, when sh
called on Chief Donahue Saturday morning,
to file a complaint In police court against
Smith, shrinking from the publicity the
Incident would give ber, but Donahue In
slated that she push the matter, and she
promised to return In the afternoon and
moke formal charge.
Smith 'was appointed to the police force
about four years ago. He has been be
fore the board of commissioners for reprl
mand on trifling charges on two or three
occasions.
