Father of Jin. N. P. Dode, Jr., Wint
in Bay State Tight.
DEMOCRATS' MAN FOR GOVXRNOB.
Dallnt Law rommluian, After Dellb
rrallif on (he qorttlon, De
rlarri Mr. flhlUfr the
Standard Bearer.
Henry M. Whitney, father of Mrs. N. P.
rrvlff. Jr.. of Omaha, was declared the
l-'irnl nominee of the domocratlc party of
lssnchusntts for governor by the ballot
law cnminlBRlnn. He hB bpn campatg-n-Iwr
ever since the convention several weeks
iko ns If he was the party'a representative,
iHrvlnr the acts of the Bartlett supporters
would never be upheld. A message was
received by Mr. Dodge Saturday telling of
Ilia decision.
At the time of the convention the Bartlett
supporters, who were allied to the Hearst
element and who had control of the demo
cratic machinery of Massachusetts, were
opposing the. merger of the New Haven
Hartford and the Boston A Maine roads,
and backed their campaign slogan with a
di-monotratlon that will go on record as one
of the liveliest of Its kind In the party his
tory of the bny state. Charles F. Bartlett.
who 'htmsolf 's a rather mild-mannered
man. kept In the background at the con
vention, but Ms supporters more than made
up for his attitude. A congressman of the
state presided and yet It Is said that an or
ganized pnng of toughs, among whom a
number of Boston pugilists were recognized,
Assisted In preserving the majority of tho
Itartlett forces until a few of the Whitney
men could get 'n the hall and nominate
their candidate.
Mr. Dodge, who has been following the
case closely, raid Saturday the convention
lias never before been equalled In Massa
chusetts for the tactics pursued. The Bart
lett men were admitted to the hall at
Springfield by red tickets and the Whitney
men by blue tickets. Whitney men were
subjected to all manner of delay In ex
changing their tickets for reserved seat
checks and were subjected to other Incon
veniences, while holders of red tickets
were passed hi and even rushed through.
The Bartlett in pushed their business and
liac the ticket mmed by noon, and when
at 2 o'clock, 125 of the -Whitney men were
Inside, they wore obliged to hold a second
convention, which they did with more than
half their delegates still outside clamoring
for admission. Many never got Inside the
hull at all.
One nominee of the Bartlett forces, put
up for lieutenant governor, declined the
ltnnor and withdrew from the ticket.
VOTES TO COME IN MONDAY
Ballots on Commercial dab Quarters
Will lie Canvansed First
of Week.
Votes of members of the Commercial
club on the proposition to enlarge the
quarters of the club or erect a modern
building, will begin to come Into the office
of the commissioner Monday morning and
the executive committee expects to can
vass the vote at Its meeting Tuesday.
Commissioner Guild sent a letter to every
member Friday evening, together with a
bnllot, submitting three different propo
sitions. Whatever else the club may decide to
do, it is certain to enlarge and Improve
Its rooms and add every club feature which
tlio organizations of business men have In
larger cities.
It Ik the plan of the club to make the
social features of the organization attrac
tive to the younger men of the city, who
would otherwise be interested in purely
social ?lubs, and not give much ofjtfielr
energy to boosting Omaha.
Under such a plan the Commercial club
will become a training school for boosters,
the younger men taking up the spirit of
those older ones who have been in the
harness for a number of years. The cafe
fratur of the club will be extended and
meals sered at all hours of the day.
TWO BRANDS OF HONESTY
One Is (iennlne Nebraska Sort, the
Other la the Chicago
Kind.
A man edged timidly up to the ticket
window of the Burlington station yester
day. Pussenger Director Joe Mlk spied him
und tapping hlra on the shoulder told him
lie would have to take hla place at the end
of the lung line if he wanted to get a
ticket'
"No, I don't want a ticket," explained the
man, "but the ticket seller gave me two
rents too much change and I'm Juat hand
ing It back."
Mr. Mlk turned his face away and smiled
broadly.
"Honesty la a fine thing," he said, "but
we don't often And them as honest as that
man.
"The porter In the barber shop found a
line ring - a couple of months ago. He
brought it to me and In about a week a
pr.Ktsl card came from a man In Chicago
asking if we had found the ring. I wrote
hack and told him to send a description of
the ring. He described It all right and said
as soon as ho received the ring he would i
send the porter to for his honesty. We sent
the ring by express, but the porter hasn't
seen anything of that $5."

mainder of the week.
BACK BROKEN, BUT NOT WILL
Joks A. Gordon, Hopelessly Afflicted,
Works for Hla Own
Livelihood.
With his back broken from a fall off a
train sis years ago John A, Gordon Is In
Omaha trying by his own hands to earn
money to provide himself a cottage here
and thus escape life In a hospital or other
charitable institution, and at the same time
free his family from the trouble and ex
pense of his care.
Gordon's injury was received In 1901 at a'
small town In Minnesota, and for a long
time his case seemed hopeless, but surgical
science succeeded In saving his Ufa, though
he ia entirely helpless from the waist down.
He manages to move around by the use
of a velocipede and has become skillful In
the making of crocheted wear. By the sale
of crocheted slippers and Infants' and
women's wear he hopes to be able to raise
the $300 necessary to provide a small cot
tage for himself.
Gordon has also published a book telling
of his mishap and his life since and is
disposing of copies to help swell the fund.
He also acts as agent for certain publica
tions. A woman of philanthropic disposi
tion has subscribed for I&0 worth of shares
in a building and loan association for Gor
don and he hopes by diligent work to bo
able to make the monthly payments. When
he secures the money he expects to buy
a small cottage and move It upon a tract
of ground he will be allowed to use and
will establish himself there.
Ills book, made up chiefly of newspaper
clippings, tells of the horror of his situa
tion and of the troubles of a worthy crip
ple when forced to accept public charity In
almshouses and Jails.
Mr. Gordon is now living at 2419 South
Twenty-fourth street.
GIRL WHO CANNOT BE FOOLED
She la Onto Everything- A roan '1
Hotel bat the "I" Let
ter Box.
She is young and not bad looking am'
has been connected with one of Omaha':
leading hotels for a year or so In th
capacity of bookkeeper. She does othj
things, though. When the clerk goes ti
lunch she often presides behind the des)
during his absence. Sometimes she re
lieves the cnshler or the cigar stand glr'
on similar occasions. Like all girls wh
work in public places, she has learned hov
to take a good "Jolly" and not to be flat
tered at the stories handed her by "ho
air merchants." Neither does she "bite"
on every Joke that Is sprung on her. Frl
day while she was behind the desk a man
rushed up In a hurry.
"Let me see your T letters," he said
hastily. "I have Just time to catch mj
train.
She looked at him languidly. "My what?"
she said.
"Tour 'I' letters, quick," he replied.
"Eye letters? Now, Mr. Smith, do 1
look so easy? I'm not going to bite, but
tell me what the Joke is," she said.
"The Joke is simply this," he replied
with some fervor, "1 want my mall and
you're going to make me miss my train.
Will you kindly hand me that bunch . of
letters in box IT"
"Ha, ha. ha! Why, Mr. Smith, I beg
your pardon. Bye letters, ha, ha! Hone
you don't miss your train."

has been taken.

appeared before the- board Saturday and
demanded Immediate action, declaring he
would bring mandamus proceedings unless

he discovered that his Jewel caae was ml sa
ng. , The caae contained Jewelry valued at
,-00 and one piece was a gift from hla wife,
,in which no value could be placed. He
(insulted with his friends and was advised
to report the case to the police. He de
cided he would report it through Mayor
Dahlman and went to the mayor's office tor
that purpose Saturday morning. The mayor
called on the chief of police and in a few
minutes two detectives were In the room.
As the westerner told of his loss the de
tectives became Interested and when he
spoke of a lodge pin one of them described '
the emblem and told the man from the
range that the department had been look
ing for him for twenty-four hours, as they
had hla pin and the men In Jail who were
trying to pawn it and were holding them
until the owner of the property could be
found.
The friend who had accompanied the vis-
tor to the police station had been of the i
pinion 'that the property was lost and
ad expressed a poor opinion of the de
, artment, but aB he left the mayor's office
..e said he was willing to admit that It
a as all right and the stranger heartily
agreed with him.
