LOYAL L SMITH PASSES AWAY
Former Omahn Boomer and Later
Wall Street Leader Dies of
Heart Disease.
Loyal L. Smith, wealthy mine owner
and formely prominent In the stock market
of Wall street, died Wednesday at Atlan
tic City, N. J., after a lingering Illness oc
casioned by heart trouble.
Mr. Smith was well known by the pioneers
of Omaha, as It was in this city he made
some of the money with which he started
In Wall street. He conducted a dry goods
store on Farnam street between Thirteenth
and Fourteenth streets. In the building
now occupied by the Adams Express com
pany. He flourished from 1884 to 1S3S and
at that time C, E. Mayne and other real
estate boomers were at work In Omaha
and to boost their outside property they
hired brass bands. Smith took the same
method to boost his dry goods business.
Ho had a band stationed In front of his
store to attract a crowd and boost his bus
iness. He left Omaha in June. 1885. -
Loyal L. Smith's career in Wall street
was unique and his methods, dictated by
his retiring disposition, were out of the
ordinary. He was classed as a "member of
the Chicago crowd." which Included John
W. Gates, Isaac ElWood, John A. Drake
and others. His Influence began to make
Itself felt In the stock market shortly after
the winter of 1S98-1899. In the Jail of 1908
he turned his attention to the cotton mar
ket, his speculations proving highly profit
able. The reputation which he then ac
quired as a coffee "bull" really marked
his last appearanoe In the public eye. Com
ing out of the west with a capital not ex
ceeding $200,000, he had accumulated 15,000.-
000 in five years.

THE "BLUES"
A Lady rinds Xelp from Simple rood.
Civilisation brings blessings and also
responsibilities.
The more highly organized we become
the more need there is for regularity and
natural simplicity in the food we eat.
The laws of body nutrition should be
carefully obeyed, and the finer, more
highly developed brain and nervous syp
tern not hampered by a complicated, un
wholesome dietary. '
A lady of high nervous tension says:
t or -nrteen years I was a sufferer
from dyspepsia. I confess that an lm
properly regulated diet waa the chief cause
of my suffering. Finally, nothing that I
ate seemed to agree with my atomach,
and life, ct times, did not seem worth
living.
"I began to take a pessimistic view of
everything and aee life through dark blue
glass ao to speak. My head became af
fected with a heavy creaplng sensation
and I feared paralysis.
"Palpitation of the heart caused me to
fear that I mlght die suddenly. Two
years ago, hearing Grape-Nuts so highly
spoken of by some estimable friends of
mine, I determined to try It.
"Tlje change In my condition waa little
less than miraculous. In a short time the
palpitation, bad feeling In head and body-
began to disappear and the Improvement
has continued until at the present time I
find myself In better health than I have
ever enjoyed.
"My weight was Increased 10 lbs. In
the last year and life Ipoka bright and
sunny to me as It did when I was a child.
"For breakfast I eat only Grape-Nuts
with cream or good milk, and a cup of

WHIT CLUB WOMEN ARE DOING
Training School for Saleswomen Con
ducted by Boston Clnb Women.
PRACTICAL METHODS EMPLOYED
Clnrkaon Measorlnl Hoepllal Associa
tion Will Plan for Raisins Fends
Home for Ttewaboys Prae
tleally Assnreal.
One of the unique Institutions that had
grown out of the club movement Is the
school for saleswomen conducted by, the
Women's Educational and Industrial union
of Boston. Luclnda W. Prince give an
outline of the plan of work as follows In
the February Bulletin:
In seneral the titan waa to dpveloD those
qualities which would enable the pupils to
succeed as saleswomen. What these quali
ties were was determined In two ways:
(1) by personal Investigation of the needs
of the average untrained salesgirls In
stores; (2) by conference with superin
tendents as to qualifications essential to
Success. As a result, the first general aim
resolved itself Into this fourfold, more
definite aim: (1) to teach right thinking
toward the work as a profession and rouse,
a feeling of responsibility; (2) to develop
a pleaflng personality; (3) to Instill a re
gard for system and cultivate habit of
attention to details; (4) to instruct in those
subjects which Increase knowledge of goods
to be sold.
The actual working out of the plan for
co-operation with the stores showed con
clusively that more store experience was
essential for the best results. Arcordlngly
after consultation with the advisory com
mittee the time schedule was changed so
that every day from S:3U to 11 and 4:30 to
6:80 the pupils were In the school and the
rest of the day In the stores." For this
half-rime work 13 a week waa paid by the
stores.
The subiects tauaht have been the nat
ural outcome of the "purpose of the course,"
already outlined, and practically no change
will be made for the class now forming.
The following will show the basis for se
lection: (1) To develop a wholesome, at.
tractive personality. Hygiene, especially
personal hygiene; this Includes study of
dally menus for saleswomen, ventilation,
bathing, sleep, exercise, recreation. (2) To
become familiar with the general system
of stores sales slip practice, store direc
tory, business arithmetic, business form
and cash account, lectures, (ill To increase
knowledge of stock color, dnelgn, textiles.
(4) To study selling as a science dlscusaion
of store exporlences, talks on salesmanship,
such as attitude to firm, customer and fel
low employe, demonstration of selling In
class, Falesmanshlp lectures. (5) To get
right attitude toward the work the whole
course.
The selling classes are conducted like the
teaching lessons In normal schools. Real
customers, chosen because they represent
different types, buy real articles. The sale
Is watched by the class, notes being taken
of strong and weak points. When the sale
la finished, the one who has made the sale
Is allowed to criticise her own work, then
the class criticises, the customer tells why
eiie am or uia not miy me article, and the
whole Is summed up by the director. These
demonstrations, the discussions of store
experience, observations In other stores
and actual selling with thought awaken
the class to the difference between handling
goods over the counter and really serving
the customer. What Prof. Palmer calls
an "aptitude for vicarlousness" Is as es
sential for the successful saleswoman as
ior me successful teacher. As far as pos
slble the class work Is correlated; the
drawing is a storo plan, a design for cos
tume; the spelling, names and addresses
and store English (and French); when the
girls are sent to the stores for samples,
salesmanship, color, design, textiles, are
studied. The manner of the salesman in
giving me sample is observed and reported,
the color and design are used in the color
lesson and the material In the textile work.
If the textile being studied Is wool, one of
the store lectures fft that time will te on
wool or whollen goods. Practical talks by
representatives of the firms Interested, ex-
iiMii't-ci eaieBpeopic, nuyers and superin
tendents aro given twice
class on subjects such aa "The Department
""", uysiem ana me saleswoman s
Place In It." "How to Show. Goods."
"TTlfles." "Textilisa." "flrrvl. r ".
tomer." '

Frances Willard Women's Christian Tem
perance union waa held Wednesday after

lowed by a report of the recent State Con
ference of "Charities and Corrections by
Mrs. J. D. Hart. Mrs.. Clara Burbank,
president of the union, talked of Omaha's
need of a home or a clubroom for the news
boys. The union expects to open such a
place as soon as a suitable building can
be secured, the women having arranged
fo a monthly sum that will cover the rent

tion has suggested that Its clubs place pic
tures of Susan B. Anthony In every high

Aa he could not tell a connected story
of his naval experiences the application
waa turned down and Mr. Jones had to
Seek other pastures to reconnect himself
with the navy. When he appeared before
the naval recruiting officials Thursday
morning they recognised him as the same
Individual who sought enlistment and did
not take his story cf alleged desertion from
the marines seriously. However, the naval
bureau at Washington will be notified of
Mr. Jones' contrition and he was asked to
report Saturday to the naval officer to see
what may be done. Jones did not relish the
prospect of any delay but the naval officials
were obdurate and Mr. Jones will have to
wait.
In the meanwhile ha waa permitted to
go hla way. The naval authorities here are
of the Impression that Jones Is not really
a deserter, but that ha la trying to work
a scheme to get free transportation back
to the east.
Aa a general rule the Navy department is
Indifferent about recovering deserters from
the Marine service on the theory the ser
vice Is better off without them and to leave
them go their way rather than to incur
the expen -c and annoyance of arrest, trial
and subsequent imprisonment.
FREMOnTVINS ON CONTRACT
City Is Given Decision Over Joseph
W. Turner in United
States Coort.
Judge W, H. Munger handed down a
memoranda opinion In the United States
circuit court Tuesday morning In which he
decides for the city of Fremont against
Joseph W. Turner, a paving contractor, In
the matter of the" forfeiture of a check de
posited with the city in earnest of the ful
fillment of a contact
Turner was the successful bidder for pav
ing contracts In two of the paving districts
of that city and the contraot was awarded
to him. Pursuant to the usual custom
Turner was required to deposit a check for
$2,100 for the faithful performance of the
oontract. The contract waa submitted to
Turner by the city for signature. He re
fused to sign It and submitted one of his
own. This the city refused to agree to and
declared the contract with Turner void be
cause of his refusal and also declared the
check forfeited.
The oontract was then let to ihe next
lowest bidder. Turner af once brought suit
for the recovery of thd check for $2,100 and
sought to enjoin Its payment.
The court holds that a check deposited
under these circumstances Is either for
penalty or liquidation of damages, and from
the further fact that the next lowest bid
was about $2,600 In excess of Turner's bid
that the deposit Is forfeited. The suit of
Turner Is therefore dismissed for want of
equity and the plaintiff cannot recover
damages.
