That Letter Proposition When you have a large number of people to reach with practically the same infor mation, no other medium will answer the purpose as well and effectively Ha a type written "form" letter.

Not ACTl'ALLY written on a typewriter, but typewritten. If you were to have KO.onn letters written on typewriters it wmild re quire all of the stenographers In Omaha, using all of the available typewriters, two days. And you could not afford that ex pense. Right there is where we come In. Bv our method we can produce ACTUAL TYPEWRITTEN LETTERS at a cost of IMITATION. Wo can give you a clean and perfect letter, printed with steel-faced type through an Inked ribbon, exactly the same proems, from a mechanical point, as jour letter goes throtinji on the typewriter.

' Per by mii Orooor MlaalTe Is necelTed by Superinten dent Ferrer of Connty Hospital Telling- of Baron's Record in TransTaal. Did Trinee Helle de Sagan find time In the midst of his courtship of lime. Anna Gould to write a letter denying the claim of Henry Liouls de Oiniberg of Omaha lhat he is really a French baron and a second cousin of Prince de 8agan? Superintendent Andrew Ferrer, superin tendent of the County hospital, has re ceived an anonymous letter which seems to Indicate that he did, and some of those who have seen the missive believe It was mitten bv no other than the prlnoe him self. U was mailed in New York April 10, the day before Prince de Sagan sailed from New York for Paris. It Is written on correspondence paper of the very finest quality and Is worded In English, which Is good theoretically, but which abounds In stilted phrases of a decidedly French flavor. If Prince de Sagan did not write the letter there can be no doubt It was penned by fin educated and cultured Frenchman. Another evidence of the Identity of the writer Is the fact that he evidently knew the Omaha "baron" and Is conversant with, his life from the time of his birth, through the Boer war and down to the present. He Is also acquainted with the De Olnxbi-rg family In Paris. The letter declares the Omaha De Glnxberg Is a "fakir" and Is really a Polish Jew born In Paris. Tails Baron a Faker. "The real De Ginsberg family," the let ter continues, "lives In Paris and Is not acquainted with this fakir." Whoever the writer is, he evidently has run across the Omaha "haron" before, and not only knows him, but has some very de cided feeling against him, aa the tone of the letter and some of the Information It contains Indicates. He warns the superin tendent of the County hospital against him and It Is apparent the writer Is afraid the "baron" w ill make use of the claim of rela tionship to the prince and the de Gins bergs. He tells what he says was the Omaha "baron's" record in the Transvaal and ad vises the superintendent to write to P. Krauser, formerly public prosecutor at Johannesburg, and now a barrister there for a confirmation of what he says. Owing to the peculiar contents of the letter, Mr. Ferrer does not care to make it public. The letter la signed "Unknown" and it Is addressed to the "Superintendent of the County Hospital, Omaha, V. 8. A." The story of Baron de Ginsberg .was tele graphed from Omaha to the New York papers and the fact the. letter was mitilcd Just before prince de Sagan sailed from New York, lends color to the belief that ho himself wrote It. Mr. Ferrer will probable Investigate to find out the authorship. GREEKS WARNED BY COURT One Is Fined Hnndred Dollars for An noying; Woman and Others Ara Cantloned. James Kergout, a Greek, was fined 1100 and costs AVednexday . morning by Judge Callanan of South Omaha under the charo of menaced assault. This Is the statutory limit of the fine or Kcrgost would have got more. Kergost was arrested on the Information of Miss Bertha Smead ot Sheldon, la. She charged the Greek with threatening her in her room about midnight Tuesday. She is a girl of 18 and has bten In South Omaha for about a year. Sho lives at present at the Kagle rooming house at Twenty-sixth and N streets. She is taking care of an invalid woman who often requires assist ance during the night. Tuesday Miss Smead had been up until about midnight and went out for a light lunch. On returning to the rooming house she was followed up the stairs by some Greeks. She did not know they were in the building, but spent several minutes talking with the woman In charge. This woman retired to another room when the Greeks presented themselves. Detective Klsfelder was within reach and he arrested Kergost and later a supposed companion, Lewis Alavayos. The officers are still look ing for Chris Paronla," another Greek, in connection with the same offense. Miss Smead appeared in police ceuri. Together with the fine the Judge gave the Greeks present a vigorous lecture on be havior In American streets.

What Is construed as a victory for the Lincoln Commercial club In its case against the Itock Island to secure Omaha rates from the south is regarded by Omaha Com mercial club members as "spiking" the bill which Lincoln, assisted by Senator Nor rls Brown, Is urging before congress to eliminate the elastic clause in the interstate commerce law regarding long and ahott hauls. "Tho decision of the Interstate Commerre commission. If It is correctly quoted In the aispatches from Washington, makes one thing clear to me,' said Commissioner J. M. Guild of the Omaha Commercial club. "It certainly shows that tho clause which reads 'under substantially the same cir cumstances and conditions' and makes elasticity of the section possible, is consid ered necessary by the !r.r?? Commerce commission. I have the greatest confi dence In the commission. If It finds that conditions have changed since the Rock Island and Xlsioiiri Pacific made the pres ent rates and that Lincoln is entitled to Omaha rates on certain commodities there Is no question In my mind but the com mission la right and has found the reasons to Justify the ruling. "But the decision, if correctly stated, shows there are rases in which a rate may be lower for a long haul than for a short haul, even when the given point in the short haul is intermediate with the long haul point, as in the case of Lincoln and Omaha. "The commission has held, as I under stand it, that coal from the south may be brought to Omaha for IS cents per ton less than to Lincoln and that the rate is Just and reasonable. Now, with a rigid long unj short haul clause, which has been urged by Lincoln, the entire rate fabric of the I'nlted States would be disturbed. The commission has shown that there is a chance for getting a medicine for a spe cific trouble, a dVe of which Lincoln has Just received, but it has also shown that a cure-all or 'blanket medicine' which would make the long and short haul clause operate in every section, regardless of geo graphical or other natural conditions, would be a bad thing. "It Is to be hoped that we will hear no more demands for upsetting the rates of the country by asking congress to adopt an amendment making the long and short haul clause ot the Intc-rstite commerce law rigid." ELEVEN INDIANS IN JAIL Omaha and Wlnnrlnuton Are Ilronaht Down from Keserva- , tlon for Bootlegging. Deputy I'nited States Marshal John Sides brought down from the Winnebago and Omaha reservations Tuesday evening eleven Indiana and locked them up in the Douglas county Jail under Indictment for introduc ing liquor onto Indian reservations.
