AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA
Joe Meduska Falli Into the Scalding
Tank at Armour's.
BURNS PROBABLY NOT FATAL
Paring Work to Commence Today n
Twenty-First Street Oatlet to
, Storm Sewer Changed to
Protect Street. 1
Joe Meduska. 1113 North Twenty-eighth
street, fell Into the scalding tank at th
Armour packing house yesterday morning
at 10 o'clock receiving serious burns.
Meduska was one of th regular workmen
st the tsnks snd It Is his business to handle
the scalding hogs with a pike pole and
move them along to the lifting apparatus.
It Is said he was resting on one side of
the tsnk and his partner was on the other
side. In their conversation Meduska, try
ing to be polite, was In the act of reselling
across over the tank to give his partner
a pinch of ennff. The platform at th
side of the tank on which he stood was
slippery with the splashed water and lye.
While his partner was helping himself
Meduska's feet slipped and he fell headfirst
into the tank.
The water was two snd a half feet deep.
He landed on his hands and feet among
the swine. He sprang out much quicker
than he went In, but not before his arms
and legs were scalded severely. His cloth
ing protected his body , slightly or h cer
tainly would hav died In the tank. Dr.
R. E. Schlndel was called and th man
was given the first dressing and taken
home. The doctor is confident that with
care the man will recover. He may lose
his hair from the lye.
Ordinarily there is little danger of fall
ing Into "the tank, for the sides sre- as high
as s man's thighs. If he had not been
reaching across the tank he could scarcely
have fallen In.
Paving; Commences Today.
The National Construction company as
sured the city engineer yesterday morning
that It would begin the paving of Twervty
flfth street this morning. The material haa
been piled on the streets for the curbing,
and this will be th. first part of the work
constructed. The paving is to extend from
L street to the city limits on the north. It
will cost In the neighborhood of $46,000.
Bonds were sold to Spltzer Co. to pay
the cost of this paving.
The city engineers have been working on
the street for nearly a week setting tho
staks for th curb and also for the paving.
With good luck the contract should bo
closed In two months.
The National Construction company is
also about ready to proceed with the pave
ment of Weat Q street. The pavement of
East Q street is in litigation.
Sewer Outlet Chanced.'
The city engineer haa closed up the tem
porary drain of the storm sewer on N street
and made a new .outlet toward the north,
so that after the water passes out of the
temporary sewer it will flow to the river
Instead of Into the closed pond south of N
street, at Twentieth. The Intersection at N
and Twentieth streets has been In an un
safe condition during the heavy rains. Each
time it rained the engineer expected to find
this intersection destroyed.
. If this Intersection should go out It would
seriously damage the N street gulch sewer
below 1U The progress of that sewer Is
slow as It Is. In act, the city engineer
said he did not think the work could pro
ceed further without a shield to protect the
excavation. ' The ,heavy rains this spring
hav saturated the jsoil so that much more
water Is flowing. than formerly.'.

Butchers-Make Money During
Your Spare Time!
Many . a butcher has made money by keeping in touch with
outside interests through the Want Ad Columns of the daily, and
Sunday Bee.
The enterprising butcher who looks into the future and
works to improve himself and the conditions of his family does
not waste the 'time when there are no buyers in his shop. He
keeps his daily Bee in a convenient place. He reads the Want
Ads when he is not working at the "block." He sees opportun
ities that he would nevr learn of in any other way.
Many a trade is started in this way. At night when the
shop is shut up the butcher closes the deals that he learned of
during the day through reading the Want Ads.
Butchers, don't be content with what you are doing I Get
aheadl Make money! Money never comes to you you can
only get it by keeping in touch with outside affairs. The clas
sified columns of the Bee every day and Sunday are worthy of
your attention.

i History of Body.
LIGHT VOTE GENERALLY CAST
Iladlcala Make Manhood Suffrage
Their Mala Plank, bat
Carry on Languid
Fight.
BERLIN, June 4. The Diet elections were
held throughout Prussia today. The most
noteworthy result up to midnight is the
election of five socialist members, of which
four were victorious In Berlin and the
suburbs and the fifth In one of the Han
over districts. This is the first, time that
the socialists ever elected a member to the
Diet.
The socialists made the campaign wholly
against the radicals as the most likely
party from which It would be possible to
gain seats. At the beginning of the cam
paign the radicals slated the main plank
In their platform tp be the Introduction of
manhood suffrage throughout Prussia, but
they carried on a very languid fight.
As usual only a small proportion of the
voters went to the polls, the great mass
of the people remaining Indifferent, as they
have despaired of bringing about a change
In th voting system.
In th Berlin precinct, which embraces
the mlnlsterles, the capitalists from the
first divisions .of voters. Chancellor von
Buelow voted In the second class along
with flv others, while Dr. Bessler, Prus
sian minister of Justice, and the other
ministers, voted In the third class, which
embraced 189 namea.
The radical union carried Charlottenburg.
which Is a, new district, electing Prof, von
Liszt, a distinguished professor of law In
Berlin university. Bo far as indicated, a
comparatively few changes in the personnel
of the Diet will be made, most of the mem
bers being re-elected.

of the Presbyterian and the United Presby

for the present. At the closing session of

such sctlon was adopted. The report was
submitted by the committee to which the
subject had been referred by the last gen
eral assembly. It stated that this commu
te had no formal meeting because of the
great distance between the homes of the
members and the failure of the assembly
to provide traveling expenses. However, the
committee waa ready to report recommend
ing that a new committee be named to
consider the subject, the members to be
centrally located and provisions made to
pay their expenses, but since Informally
agreeing on such action the committee had
been seml-officially informed that the Pres
byterian church would take no further steps
In th matter, either for union or' closer
relations, and therefore the committee de
cided to leave the whole question to future
assemblies. The report of tiie committee
against consolidating the Freedmen's mis
sion, church extension and home mission
boards waa adopted.
Rev. Dr. Allison Reed was elected treas
urer of the Home Mission board to succeed
hla fethir. Rev. Dr. George M. Reed, who
haa held the offic for many years, but who
haa become too old and feeble for th
duties.
Th committee on distribution of the
semi-centennial Jubilee fund, amounting to
over Sl.38ft.O0O, of wh'.ch about 63,0i) was
donated without specifying the purpose for
which It should b used, recommended that

and missionary departments, the apportion
ment being aa follows:
