he was between the cars a switch engine
bumped some more cars against them and,
owing to the absence of drawheads, the
cars 'came together, with Langenfeld be
tween them. He asserted his collar bone
and shoulder were dislocated, several ribs
fractured and his right lung crushed. He
sued for 13,000.

after their arrival, her employer vlalled
her at the hotel where she was stopping

had the amount In several certificates of

Welse answered the advertlaement, signing
a fictitious name and giving a telephone
number. The advertiser failed to put In an
appearance for his replies until Wednes
day morning, when he received about
twenty applications for the Northwestern

the evening before and the schemer was

The State Child Labor association ap
pointed a legislative committee composed ct
Judge Kennedy of Omaha and Judge Frost
of Lincoln, and the executive committee of
the state conference of Charities and Cor
rections perfected plans for the publishing
of the proceedings of the association of the
last two years and partially outlined the
program for next year.
John W. Robblns. C. F. Harrison and H.
B. Payne discussed the Des Moines com
missioner plan of city government before
tho Real Estate exchange Wednesday.
Mr. Harrison read a carefully prepared
letter from Lawrence Minot of Boston,
owner of four or fivo of th largest build
ings In the business district of Omaha and
large owner of Boston property. Mr.
Mlnet Is a student' c.f municipal govern
ments and has been ithe power behind sev
eral good things which have been done for
Bopton. While In Omaha recently he
looked the city over carefully and wrote
the letter giving his Ideas, nf city govern

"If I were to be given the responsibility
of writing a charter for a city, I would
first make up my mind what sort of a
man or what srrt of men shculd hold the
offices.' said Mr. Minot. "Then when I
had picked the highest type of citizen
ship, I would go to tnse men and find
what It would take as an Inducement to
get -them to enter public office and manage
the affairs of the city. When I had learned
this I would write the charter and make
provisions for getting such men Into the
offices."
Mr. Harrison agreed with Mr. Minot and
believed the salaries of mayor and com
missioners. If Omaha ever has the commis
sioner plan, should be large enough and the
powers sufficient to Induce the best men to
accept the offices. ' '
Mr. Payne wants a city run by one man.
who will be as big a man as the general
manager of any $100,000,000 corporation and
he said he would make that one man's
power absolute.
Cmaha may be derided upon as the meet
ing place for the annual convention of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and
Knglneinen In 1909. according to the dele
gates assembled In Omaha from seven
states. Including Nebrsska. Iowa. Missouri,
Kansas. South Dakota, Colorado and
Wyoming-.
Wednesday morning the M0 delegates and
their friends were taken on a trolley ride
to Florence and to places of Interest In
Omaha and Wednesday afternoon another
executive session was held In Baright's
hall. Nineteenth and Farnam streets.
"Tljes? district meetings which are being
held In different parts of the country are
purely social and for the purpose of dis
cussing brotherhood affairs and the general
condition of the organisation," said J. J.
Hannahan of Peoria. III., grand master of
the brotherhood.' "Meetings of similar na
ture have been held all over the country.
The national organisation will meet at Co
lumbus, O., this fall and the meeting next
year probably will be held in the west."
That was as strong as Mr. Hannahan would
go for Omaha, but other officials present
said that Omaha has the best chsnce of
eny city to get the meetings next year.
This brotherhood meeting In quite an ex
tensive affair, as the sessions will last at
least three weeks and there will be 1,000
delegates In attendance.
Porely Labor Body.
This Is purely a labor organisation with
the Insurance feature, organised tntrty
seven years ago, with a membership at the
present time of over 70,000 men. Some Idea
of the way we are growing may be gained
from the statement as to the Increase In
membership during the last fourteen
months. It seems ' scarcely credible,
but the fact remains that during the last
fourteen months, from January. 1907. 21.191
men were admitted Into membership.
"The organisation has $arS.239 In Its treas
ury and In the protective fund alone we
have $4,064.37. which shows that the pro
tective fund Is rather a peace fund and la
used more as a guarantee of peace than to
fight.
"The laboring men will not submit to
any reduction of wages, but on the other
hand a condition will be forced which may
cause more or less friction to prevent a
reduction. We want to stop this inter
ference with the railroads and It will be
found that the railroads have no better
friends than they have In their employes.
"Railroad employes must realise that they
must remain conservative and courageous
If these complicated questions would vbe
settled. Some legislation la needed to
counteract some of the vicious legislation
now In force.
"No force can stop the march of
the laboring men, who are certain to get
that which Justly belongs to them and
which for years they have been deprived
of. We are trying to solve the complicated
question of having peace between employer
and employe."

If the weather should be favorable to

will be a marvelously large crowd at Krug
park, Omaha's Polite Resort, tho occasion
being the annual picnic of the retail butch

perience It has become a proverb that.lt
always rains on the dsy appointed for this
annual outing.' Possibly the hoodoo will be
broken this year by reaaon of the location
of the picnic at Krug park, as It is the first
time that it has ever been held there. All
the grocers and butchers of this city, with
all their employes, their customers and
friends, will attend this piclnc. Their stores
and shops will be closed all day. Unusual

whereon his best Instrumental soloists will
appear, and Mile. Pallansch, soprano solo

Forest Lawn cemetery road and the Center

changed to the cost of the paving will bo
somewhat reduced.

a foot. After the bids were received the
board decided to cut the width of the road
from aixteen to twelve feet and this caused
a i eduction of 25 per cent In the bid. A
further reduction was made in the cost of
ta. via with which the road will be coated.
the board specifying that a half gallon
should be used to each square yard.
The contract for the Center street road
was let to E. D. Van Court at fl.67 a
lineal foot on revised specifications similar
to thoae for the Brlggs road. Van Court's
original bid waa 12.31. On this road some
cement paving will be laid probably at
Intersections and this work will be done at
the price of the original bid for that kind
of paving. Van eourt also secured the
contract for the Forest I -awn cemetery
road at 12.06 a feet, a reduction of 10 cents
a foot owing to the change In the tarvia
specifications.

outside bidders for the rest of the paving
