MARKET HOUSEIS CAPTURES
City Fortress Taken at Night by Fed
eral Troops. '
UNCLE SAM NOW IN CHARGE
Thurston and Dablman Rifles March
I poa the Deserted Citadel
and Stack Their Arma
Inside.
The Omaha market house at Fourteenth
street and Capitol avenue was captured
late Monday night by an armed force of
United States soldiers. In It are now stored
the rifles and equipment of Company L of
the First regiment known as the Thurston
Rifles and Company I of the Second regi
ment known as the Dahlman Rifles.
People returning late from the Labor day
festivities heard the rhythmic tramp of
scalers' feet. Through the darkness they
could see the dim outline of the column as
It swung down past Fifteenth street and
Capitol avenue and marched on toward the
market house.
Where was Mayor Dithlman? Where were
the cohorts of the city council? They were
not. And the column swung on, the rifle
barrels gleaming as they passed under the
electric arc light.
"Halt," came the order. The companies
halted and the guns came to the ground
with one thud. The market house loomed
up like some mighty fortress. But It was
deserted. There was no one there to de-
fend It. Leaders of the expedition produced
keys from their pockets and detailed men
to unlock doors which hsd, .on a previous
occasion, been equipped with locks by ths
soldiers, who wer now making the mid
night expedition. So the doors were soon
open.
In filed the troops and took fearless
possession of the stalls once dedicated like
the Forum of Rome to fruits and vegetables.
The guns and other military paraphernalia
were stacked In the house and then the
soldiers withdrew, locked the doors of the
captured fortress and returned to their
homes.
Cannot Dlntnrb tncle Sam.
It was a shrewd bit of strategy by which
the Omaha soldiery secured possession of
this building, which they have long desired
for an armory. , The guns and other mili
tary equipment now In the building belong
to your fnele Sam and It Is a heinous
crime to remove such a equipment from
the building In which It is housed.
Therefore where is the city "at?"
General Dahlman was not at the head of
his victorious army when It swooped down
upon the enemy and there Is no belief that
the general will take steps to undo what
his troops have done. Could a general be
so unappreclatlve of such a triumph by his
army and Its allies? Not this general.
The mayor was not at his office when
news from the front came In, and if he is
even yet aware of the capture It Is not gen
erally known, but the - Rifles feel certain
they have Mayor Jim "on the hip" In this
cae.

ACTION SOLE FUN OF YANKEE
Strenuous Pace of Americans Pre'
vents Pleasure in Quietude.
OBSERVATIONS 4 OF TRAVELER
California .Man Returns from Europe
Imbued with Idea that Foreign
era Hare More Quirt
' Enjoyment.
"We Americans are apt to think we are
the only people who get full enjoyment
out of life," said J. S. LaFargo of San
Bernardino, Cal., who passed through the
city Tuesday on his way home from
Europe. "As a matter of fact," ho con
tinued, "the people of Europe distill pleas
ure from life more than we Americans.
They do so for the simple reason that
their tastes are more easily satisfied than
ours. They are not so blase with a surfeit
of enjoyment.
"An Englishman of the lower class can
get an hour of perfect contentment out of
sitting in the smoking room of an "ale
house' with a pot of ale costing him 3
cents. He sits with others In the high
backed bench that goes around two sides
of the big table, his ale In front of him.
He smokes nd discusses events with other
Englishmen who are getting their 'three
ha' pence worth' of amusement. They
denounce the House of Lords In no mild
'terms and discuss the latest voyage of the
Polly Ann. That is their range of conver
satlon.
"A German gets a vast deal of enjoy
ment out of sitting in a saloon or cafe and
drinking his glass of beer. He Is more
boisterous in his pastime and it lacks some
thing of the comradeship that seems to
mark the Englishman. The Frenchman
finds most of his Joy In making a display
of his wealth. And still he Is frugal and
rather apt to regret having spent his money
sfter the show Is all over and he has ex
cited green envy In all his friends.
Actios Only BatlsSes.
"I think we Americans will eventually
srrlve at that stage where we will find
keen amusement In Just sitting still and
talking. At our present stage of develop
ment we are too strenuous to take any
pleasure in anything but action. Our rich
men find the greatest pleasure riding In
the swiftest sutomoblle. Those who can't
have autos take the street car or the roller
coaster, or the shoot the chutes. But we
all get into some sort of rapid action and
go bussing about our little world like
human cannon balls on wheels.
"A trip through the European countries
Is restful for that very reason. Europe
has that repose which comes with age.
Europe. Is like some man who has arrived
at about the fifth stage of man's existence,
that of the 'justice full of wise saws,' as
Shakespeure has It. We. on the' other
hand, are only at about the second, the
'schoolboy' stage. We'll get over our frlsk
iness after a while."

A member of the Chicago Press Club

a voluntary testimonial: "I had an Illness
which reduced me greatly, when convale.
cent I wanted a great deal to eat, but
nothing seemed to satisfy me.
"Very soon after a meal I felt that
sense of emptiness, 'en aching void' as It
were, though really not hungry. The fact
Is, the food 1 was then taking was not
properly usalmilated end I' was. Improp

lack of vitality and weak condition, con
stant exhaustion and Inability to gain

"J started In on Gi ape-Nuts food, hus

ers.
The Board of Education met In regular
session lsst night and approved the report
of Superintendent N. M. Graham, assign
ing the teachers. They also advised the
attorney to look Into the matter of pupils
who registered from Sarpy county under
the provisions of the new law to see If
they bad made the proper application with
the county superintendent so that school
funds might be transfered to this district.
If they have failed In thta they will be
obliged to pay tuition.
It was left with the superintendent to
ascertain who, If any puplhi might be
obliged to take the night school, and
whether night classes should be opened.
The superintendent reported seversl cases
of needy parents who wished their children
to be excused from attending school. The
truant officer will Investigate the cases.
A new set of counters wss ordered for
the superintendent's office. The bosrd ap
proved the normal course ss outlined by
Prof. Wheeler, the principal of the High
school. The annual supplies of chemicals
were ordered. A wsr mirV of the city waa

tendent.
Ruling in Registration.
The city clerk thinks it Important to
announce again in connection with the
primaries today that no one will be al
lowed to vote who ia not duly registered
on the registration booka of last spring's
election. A transfer to another precinct
taken at that time will not appear on the
registration lists, but It will be necessary
for the voter to secure another transfer
today. A first voter by reason of coming
of age or by reason of moving Into (he
precincts of the city may swear in his
vote before the city clerk. He must bring
with him two vouchers from the precinct
in which he intends to vote. These two
men must have lived In that precinct a
year and be able to testify that he Is
entitled to vote. If a man was out of the
city last spring during all the days of
registration his excuse will be accepted
and he will be given a certificate allow
ing him to vote at the primary election.
At the primary polling placea also will
be stationed the recently appointed reg
istrars who will conduct the first day of
the regular autumn registration. Before
leaving the polls the voter should cast
his ballot and register for the November
election. This is a doubls reason why
people should take the trouble to vote
today. If the registration Is not done
today It will require another trip to the
polling places. These polling placea in
South Omaha are as follows:

a long time in such cases, for there has
been no clue whatever to the majority of
the cases lately.
