cial.) John Slattery, years of age, la
lying In 6t. Francla hospital In thla city
with a fractured skull and one of his legs
cut off aa tha result of being thrown off a
train by a Burlington freight brakeman.
Aa the train was pulling out about half a
mile east of the station In thla city Slattery
waa observed by th brakeman -beating' his
way. Aa he tella the story, confirmed by
hla traveling companion, the brakeman
ordered him off the moving train, on the
bumpera of which he was riding and, when
Slattery did not attempt to Jump, struck
him with a club and then pushed him off.
Slattery fell. One leg was cut off some
Inches below the knee, the shoe of the other
foot waa torn off and In the fall Slattery
received a fracture of the skull, which th
rompany physician later relieved by lifting
the fractured pieces.
Slattery' companion waited until the
train slackened speed for the Platte river
bridge, then Jumped off and came back a
distance of several miles tv see what had
become of hla companion. In the mean
time Slattery had waited In vain for help
and finally, with hla limb hanging only
by the tissue, crawled through a cornfield
for several block to a house In the out
skirt of the city, that of Charles Joehnck.
The family, returning to the home at
about o'clock, heard groan behind the
barn and discovered Slattery. He wa Im
mediately taken to 'the hospital by the
police authorltlea In an ambulance. Later
the companion arrived and confirmed the
man' story, for. despite hi Injured head,
he had remained conscious.
The train did not atop and It waa Impos
sible to get the other aide of the story.
However It Is not unlikely that complaint
will be filed and that th member of th
train crew will be called upon to explain.
Slattery' father, from , Chicago, ha been
ummoned. The man la said to have about
an even chance to recover, apparently be

AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA
Deadlock Over Maalelpal Appoint
meat Take a New
Tars,
A week ago the city council refused to
approve the appointments of Mayor Kout
sky, last night the democratlo head of
the finance committee attempted to se
cure the allowance of the monthly bills
for aalary, and the republican wing got
even by turning down the appropriation
sheet. Thla Is virtually a declaration of
war unless a compromise can be effected.
The mayor hold that every office with
the exception of the city engineer was va
cated by Mayor Hoetor's appointees and
that he had the right to fill the offices
pending the formality of approval. The
appointees have beers allowed to perform
the duties without Interference. The coun
cil even authorised Thomaa Conway, tha
appointee a superintendent of the city
hall and Jail, all, th right to purchase a
flag, seven watse paper baskets and other
articles. So apparently the appointees are
d faoto officer by reason of performing
th dutlea. The withholding of the salaries
will work a hardship on some of the fire
men and patrolmen and -will make much
inconvenience to several city contractors.
An item of much Importance wa the fact
that among aeveral bond proposal which
the clerk wa ordered tO' advertise, by
which the city propose to sell bond to
th amount of flM.OOO, a cut of $20,000 wa
made In the authorised $60,000 sewer bond
issue. The amount of money required
to complete the ewer system haa been a
matter of dispute ever since the deficit was
known to exist. At one time this was
a bitterly contended question. The action
of the council In snaking the cut will
awaken considerable discussion.
The city attorney in the matter of the
special election expenaes refused to advise
the money paid to the city clerk be, put Into
the general fund, but said the election
money should constitute a special fund.
After considerable discussion this was done
In accordance with his ' advice. He also
raised an objection to the prevalent custom
of "boosting" the city funds by the col
lections accruing from fines', licenses,
scavenger collections and similar sources.
In the latter case, however, the council
did not heed his objection. It cdered $3,004
placed to the credit of the general fund
and $2,000 to the street repair fund.
A motion waa Introduced by Frank
Dworak asking the city attorney to draft
an ordinance to compel parties owning
more than one adjacent lot, in case water
connections were put in, to have separato
hydranta for each lot upon which a build
ing stood. It waa referred to the city at

Ten minutes and no work whatever
to serve a hot meal with Van Camp's
Simply heat the can in hot water, then open it. Toor
out .the beans, and you get the same freshness, the same
sarory odor, as when they came out of our ovens. ; : . .. -
Keep a dozen cans in the house. You will want beans
very day for one meal, when you know Van Camp's.
Beans are Nature's choicest food 84 per cent nutriment.
No home-baked beans can compare with
Van Camp's. You lack the facilities
A fierce heat is required to rrjake beans digestible, and
you cannot apply it. That's why your beans are heavy. .
You lack the live steam that we use in our baking,
Your beans are broken and mushy. Ours are nutty and '
whole. fl
And you can't bake the beans, the tomato sauce and the
pork all together, as we do. You lose our delicious blend.
Van Camp's pork and beans
baked with tomato sauce
You don't know how good baked beans can be until yon
once try Van Camp's. There are no others like them. '
No others have that nutty flavor that sparkling test
; that piquant tang. None are so mealy, so digestible. ,
We have spent 47 years in learning how to perfect this
dish. Is it any wonder we know how best to prepare itr
Van Camp's command, by several time
over, the largest sale in the world
One reason is this: We pay seven time what some
beans cost to secure the best beans that are grown.
Another is this: We spend five times as much to make
our tomato sauce as the price of some sauce ready-made.
You will never buy other brands no matter how cheap
they are when you once know Van Camp's.
