tlon to effect organisations in every county
of the stain and In other atatca; in fact,
the work haa already progressed consider
ably. "To further tha movement I suggested to
Mr. O'Connor that we aid him In starting
tha organisations In thla county and we
have atarted three cluba. At the organiza
tion of all we have told them we were
merely starting them, that when once
atarted they would have to hoe their row
alone, unless they called upon us for aid.
In all these clubs the Jacksonlans are wel
come, but they have never evinced any de
sire to co-operate they never do anything,
that's the trouble with them.
"''But who pays the expenses of organ
izing, you ask? I will tell you. The Dahl
man democracy haa paid every cent of the
cast of organizing . three three clubs In
Omaha.. We have not. asked the state com
mittee for help, neither have we received
any. No money haa been paid by the resi
dents of the ward and It I needless to
say that the Jacksonlans have not con
tributed. , "Now about organising early In the year,
which I understand our friend, the enemy,
object to. The old aaylng that 'the early
bird catchea the worm' Is as true In poli
tics as In other cases. We have much work
to do and therefore we are getting In our
work early. Many other counties hod com
plete organisations before we started. Docs
It sound reaaonablo that these other coun
tiea have organised at this time to help out
the Dahlman democracy of Douglas county?
I should say not.
"Thla ranting of the Jacksonians might
be expected," concluded the mayor, "but
there la not one shred of truth in their
charges."

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL
Tsw People Know Sow Useful It Is Xa
Preserving stealth and Beauty.
Cost Kethlng to Try.
Nearly everybody knows that charcoal
Is the safeat and most efficient disinfect
ant and purifier In nature, but few rea
lise Its value when taken Into the human
system for the same cleansing purpose.
Charcoal Is a remedy that the more you
take of It the better; It Is not a drug at
all, but simply absorbs the gttsses and lm
tiurities always present In tha stomach
and Intestines and carries them out of the
system. ,
Charcoal sweetens the breath after smok
Ing, drinking or after eating onions and
other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and Im
proves the complexion, It whitens the
.teeth and further acts as a natural and
eminently safe cathartic.
It absorbs the Injurious gases which
collect In the stomach and bowels', It dis
infects the mouth and throat from the
polaon of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal In one form
or another, but probably the best char
coal and the most for tha money Is In
Stuart's Charcoal Losenges; they are com
. posed of the finest powdered Willow
charcoal, and other harmless antiseptics
In tablet form or rather In the form of
large pleasant tasting lozenges, the char
coal being mixed with honey.
The dally use of these lozenges will
soon tell In much Improved condition
qf the general health, better complexion,
sweeter breath and purer blood, and the
beauty of It la, that no poulble harm can
:eault from their continued use, but, on
the contrary, great benefit
A. Buffalo physician. In speaking of the
benefits of charcoal, says: "j advise
Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all patients
suffering from gas In stomach and bowels,
and to clear the complexion and purify
the breath, mouth and throat; I also be
lieve the liver la greatly benefitted by
the dally use of them; they cost but
twenty-five cents a box at drug stores,
and although In some sense a patent
preparation, yet I believe I get more and
better charcoal In Stuart's Charcoal Los
Mis than la any of the ordinary char
coal tablets."

DUCHESS' FREAK DOG FAD
She Buys Finest Specimens of Canines
She Can Find.
SILLINESS IS NOW THE FASHION
Extraordinary Scene Presented at
West End Mansion Menagerie
cf Unman Being Society
Gossip.
LONDON, Feb. 8. (Special.) I cannot
speak from personal experience, but I sup
pose that when one has a wholo lot more
money than one needs It Is difficult to re
sist the temptation .to do something fool
ish with it. Yet I had Imagined that
about the last woman to succumb to the
follies of wealth would have been that
charming American millionairess, the
duchess of Itoxburghe. but. alas, her
grace has succumbed. She Is going in for
the moat contemptible product of human
interference with canine development the
freak dog.
The freakiest of all freak dogs that has
made lis bow-wow in public Is that speci
men which has been dubbed the "sleeve
dog." That r.ame haa been bestowed
upon It because It Is so small that It can
be tucked away Inside one's sleeve. It is
really no bigger than a good-sized rat. It
la a libel on dogdom. It Is absolutely good
for nothing except for foolish women to
make a fuss over. And it Is one 'of these
sloeve dogs which the duchess of itox
burghe has purchased.
One. Inducement held out to her to buy
It was the statement that It was the tin
iest specimen of its kind In he world.
8h9 Is said to have paid over $3,000 for
It, which is many times more than the
value of Its weight In solid gold. But one
folly Inevitably leads to another. And the
duchess' second folly has taken the form
of christening this ridiculous specimen of
canine degeneracy "Uncle Sam." Could
Imagination perceive of any name more
Inappropriate for such a creature? But
its purchase has entailed yet another folly.
The duchess has provided for the little
beast a costly toilette outfit especially de
signed for It by a Parisian who coins
money out of feminine follies. On the
backs of Its wee brushes the dog's Initials
are emblazoned ' In diamonds. Its Ivory
and gold bath Is similarly adorned. I have
been told, but I can hardly credit It, that
a complete set of kitchen utensils, essen
tial for the cooking of such food aa ap
peals to the dog's depraved appetite, were
also ordered from the same astute French
man. Durness Lover of Dogs.
I would fain believe that It was In a
moment f temporary aberration that the
duchess of Roxburghe was led to go In
for the freak dog. I hope that "L'ncle
Sam" will soon die and that the duchesa,
repenting, of her folly, will never get an
other like him. 6h is a lover of animals
and her taste" In dnga has been a thor
oughly healthy one heretofore. She has a
lot of dogs at Floors castle and they are
the kind that none need apologize for.
To be extremely silly Is the latest fad
In a certain section of London smart so
ciety. It is amazing what little, practice
such folk require to become experts. That
Is because they have a natural aa well as
a cultivated aptitude for brainless diver
sion. It wss my privilege to witness some
of their antics at a big West End mansion
the other afternoon. Iu my Invitation the
entertainment waa termed "A happy family
menagerie." In my Ignorance I Imagined
that I waa to see some sort of performance
by animals that hud been' trained to over
come their natural antipathies for one
another. Animals they were, 1o be sure,
but of the human species. They did not
dress for their parts; they simply acted
them. It was agreed that the greatest
success was achieved by a pretty' young
woman who said that she had been Initi
ated Into the new cult only two -days be
fore. She pretended to be a cat. She
lapped her tea out of a saucer. She
wouldn't eat bread with butter on It for
fear the butter would get on her "paws."
She tidied her hair with the siuiie move
ment a cat uses to wash lta face. When
she wished Jo show affection for anybody
she brushed up against them' and purred.
Her conversation waa limited to a aeries
of fmee-ows." When It was time for her
to go she gave one loud "mee-ow," which

Bipeds Take Other Parte. '
One empty-headed youth assumed to be
a rooster and crowed lustily every minute
or two. But ills Imitation was not so good
as that of a young man who proclaimed his
asinine proclivities by braying In a fashion
that would have .deceived a costermonger's
donkey. A fat woman, old enough to know
better, enacted the rait of a setting hen.
When she cackled It was supposed to Indi
cate that she had laid an egg. Other bipeds
libelled the brute creation with more or
less . success by. pretending to be cows,
sheep, terriers, goats, etc. Anything sillier
I have never seen. I would have given
something to have heard the comments
made upon It by the servants who carried
round refreshments.
The duchess of Norfolk, the duchess of
Sutherland, the duchesa of Roxburghe and
a few other leading hostesses are using
their Influence to put a stop to the rough
and tumble pranks and skylarking which
now form part of most London f'snccs.
Even those at which ro"lttes api dur
ing the season are not exempt. Tlnio are
many people who are positively afraid to
accept Invitations to certain houses so well
do they lfnow what they will be "let In
for" if they go. A great attempt Is being
niade to revive the minuet and other old
yorld dances. Step dances of the Scotch
and Irish persuasion are also being care
fully practised Just now. Whether such
dances will prove sufficiently exciting to
allure the gilded youth and the "Hooligan"
girl remain to be seen. Some say not.
They are far too "slow" to be of any inter
est In their philosophy.
Weed of Locked Doors.
If these movements eventually come Into
vogue It will perhaps be unnecessary to re
sort to the precautions that In the past
have been taken In more than one hos
pitable mansion locking every door In tho
house except those of the public rooms.
In one of the figures of the "Kitchen
Dancers" some of the dancers were wont
to run out of the ball room and through
the house. Invading not only the bedrooms,
but the kitchens and area. This used to be
considered a great Joke and at the end of
last season was practiced at even ducal
mansions.
Lady Suffolk, who, as Daisy Letter, was
nothing If not frivolous, ' Is beginning to
take life seriously. She is going in for
practical philanthropy. Malmesbury, where
her huslwnd'a ancestral home, Charlton
Towers, Is situated, was once the center
of a flourishing luce Industry. Lady Suf
folk Is trying to revive It. At her own ex
pense she has equipped classes, provided
premises for their accommodation, and en
gaged expert teachers to give lessons to
the girls of the district. She has also lent
for copying some fine examples of the
Malmesbury point lace, which were part of
the Dowager Lady Suffolk's gifts to her
on her marriage. It Is a scheme that de
serves to succeed. American peeresses
spend money lavishly, but beyond that few
of them do anything to Identify themselves
with the humbler sort of folk, among whom
they reign as "My Lady." Lady Suffolk la
setting an example which . apme of her
titled countrywomen would do well to fol
low. - Man's Mania for Idols.
Henry Harrison Getty, a Chicago million
aire, has a mania for Idols. Moat people
know he haa the finest collection of these
extant. Not content with what he has, he
is consumed by a burning desire to acquire
fresh specimens. His friends tell me that
if he heard there was an Idol to be had
In Lapland he would Immediately order his
trunk to bo packed and fly off in search
of It. A little while ago he was Informed
that a fine Egyptian Idol waa In one of the
castles of the duke of Richmond and Gor
don and he forthwith offered any price for
it that the duke cared to put on it. Ills grace,
however. Is not one of the "Impecunious
arlety" who are so eager to make money
out of Americans. ' He never answered the
first letter and replied to the third only
to say that the "idol was not fore sale."
He and his daughter, Alice, are making a
six months' tour through India, China and
Japan In search of treasures and are coming
back via San Francisco and Chicago. Their
friends here are regretting considerably
that their magnificent apartment on the
Avenue des Champs Elysees will be closed
for such a long time. LADY MART.

WISE CLERK
Quits Sandwiches and Coffee for Lunch.
The noon-day lunch for the Department
clerks at Washington, Is often a most
serious question.
"For fifteen years," writes one of these
clerks, "I have been working In one of
the Gov't Departments. Abrtut two years
ago I found myself every afternoon, with
a very tired feeling in my head, trying to
get the day's work off my desk.
"I had heard of Grape-Nuts as a food
for brain and nerve centers, so I began to
eat It lnatead of my usual heavy break
fast, then for my lunch instead of sand
wiches and coffee.
In S very short time the tired feeling
In the head left me, and ever since then
the afternoon's work haa been done with
aa much ease and pleasure as the morn
ing's work.
"Grape-Nuts for two meals a day haa
worked. In my case, Just as advertised,
producing that reserve force and supply
of energy that doea not permit one to tire
easily so essential to the successful pro
secution of one's life work." "There's a
reason."

Three Weeks.
PERU, Neb., Feb. 8. (Special.) The Teru
coal mine Is on fire. It has been burning
for three weeks. The fire was caused by
spontaneous combustion of coal dust which

mine so that the fire can not get air, In this
way It Is smothered.
Several other out croppings of coal are
now being worked and good prospects are
entertained for a much larger output In the
