General Humphrey in City Major Gen eral Charles F.

The party went to Lincoln Tuesday morning and will return ' Tuesday evening, leaving luter ,lh the eveq'lng for the east. There was no. official .'significance whatever con nected with Gitirat Humphrey's visit. cists that It Flalshed Aadltorlam Woald Make More Money aa that It Is Row Not Do ing Bad. "While the stockholders of tho Audltirium company might be willing lor me cny 10 buy the Auditorium at a reasonable figure t would require voting of sometning line JtfOO.OOO worth of bonds and the satisfying of 1.600 stockholders, after which the build Ing would not be as well maintained and utilised as It Is at present," says IT. av Nash, president of the Auditorium com- Dany. Just why the proposition snouiu come up at this time to have the city vote bunds and buy the Auditorium, is a mystery to me. 'Ths proposal can do nothing but harm to the Auditorium company hlch Is Just now ottering for sale the last 16.000 of the oi second mortgage bonds, which will pay all the current debts of the company and com plete the building. We have worked hard to get the iw.wo of second ir.ortgnga bonds sold, because there Is a mistaken Idea that the Audi torium Is a' financial monstrosity. As a matter of fact, with 15.000 more bonds placed, which will doubtlosa be sold within a short time, the Auditorium will take care of Itself and in a few years will be pay ing the stockholders a llttle-not very mucn perhaps, but ZH to 3hi per cent. "Why. that Auditorium haa earnea j,vw In the last seven months above the Inter est and taxes. That's not doing very bad. All It needs Is to be completed, as It does not look good to big attractions. They are afraid It is not popular because of its un finished condition and they will not tackle it. Doubts Security of Stock. I would estimate that If the city wants to buv the Auditorium that J300.000 wortn of bonds be voted, but 1 am not sure that the stock could be secured. A majority of the stockholders could not sell the build ing to the city If they wanted to do so There are 1.600 stockholders to be taken Into consideration. Any one of them can go Into court and stop the sale of the prop erty and there would be a number who would do It If the proposition to give the city the property for something like 1136,000 was ever seriously considered. "The Omaha and Council Bluffs Street Railway company owns $15,000 worth of the Auditorium stock. I don't believe It would be possible for the city to secure as much as tho street railway company owns. "As a matter of fact the deal will not go through and it would not be a good thing If It did. We don't want our Auditorium ued for a scries of political meetings, and that la what it would be used for by the pnrty In power If the city of Omaha' ever used It. There would be a ward caucus in the Auditorium within a week after the city got possession of the building if it was caucus time. Mr. Nash Is of the opinion that some are enthusiastic over the city owning the Audi torlum, because they saw the city of Den ver furnish an Auditorium "free for noth ing" to the national democratic convention and they naturally believe the Omaha Audi torlum should be free for everyone, heated lighted and kept clean for any kind of a meeting, and that if It was Omaha would be the greatest convention city In America, onto Differ with' Nash. . ' The president of the company Is one of thn three largest Individual holders of Auditorium stock . and Is making every ef fort to- acll the 15,000 remaining of the second mortgage bonds necessary to com plete the building. The Om.iha Real Estate exchange passed a resolution deciding that tho dealers would take $1,CC0 of the bonds, but the 11.000 has never been raised and this makes It necessary for the company to sell the bonds elsewhere. While Mr. Nash la doubtful a.bouo tho proposition being practical, some of the business men favor the city buying the auditorium. "It Is the most sensible bond proposition that has been made for a long time," said Joseph Hayden of Hayden Brothers. "I think the city should own and maintain the Auditorium and I would be in favor of voting the bonds necessary to take over the property." 8. P. Bostwlck of Payne & Bostwlck, said: "I believe the Auditorium would be more popular If It was owned by the city. As was suggested In a meeting of the real eetate exchange and afterwards In the newspapers, there Is an Idea in too many people's minds that the Auditorium com pany Is an arbitrary sort of corporation and is getting something out of the busi ness which the Auditorium does. Wh'.lo this Is untrue, the idea prevails, and If the building was owned by the city, the prejudice of many would be removed and tho enterprises and entertainments given in the building would receive better patronage." tho first six months of 190.

Not until the interesting story of tho club's work Is read can a business man appreciate the numerous things which the club has ac tually accomplished for the city since January 1, 19ns.

A four year's course would then be Insti tuted and the boy who graduates from that course would be in a position to accept a good Job. His apprenticeship would have been served. Paxton & Vlorllng now will is that course now. If we had more ade quate facilities we could equip the young men of Omaha so they could, upon the completion of their high school course, tako a position In the Union Pacific shops and hold It." Mr. Wlgman says that a suitable build- lr.g would cost from $50,000 to JG0.000 and that $26,000 ought to be expended for ma chinery In the shops.

Local Dealers Benefit by Interstate Commerce Haling on Pe troleum Tariffs. - Word was received by the Commercial club Tuesday that the National Petroleum association had won the Chloago-Omaha oil rate case and a reduction of 2.7 cents In the rate ort oil from Chicago to Omaha was ordered by the Interstate Commerce com mission. The rate on petroleum and Its products from Chicago and Peoria to Omaha has been 27 cents for many years. The com plainant showed that the rate from Chicago to Kansas City was 22 cents; also that in making the through rates from Ohio points to Omaha a combination of rates from the Ohio shipping point to Chicago and from Chicago to Omaha was used and the rate from Chicago to Omaha in such instances was 22 cents. After hearing numerous witnesses and a large number of explanations by the car riers, the commission ordered that a rate of 24.3 be made from Chicago and Peoria to Omaha. As some 12.000 tons of petroleum and Its products were shipped to Omaha last year from Chicago and Peoria the saving amounts to about $6,480 to Omaha dealers. In the testimony Introduced before the com mission It was shown that 9.602 tons of oil were shipped to Omaha from points east of the Mississippi river during the first eight months of 1907. The saving on this amount alone would bo $3,131. Railway Notes and Personals. 8. T. Miller, general freight and p a. tiger agent of the Northwestern, left Tuesday or Deadwood.

AULARIA AND WEAK HEART Tho following Interesting story told by Mr. J. II. Riley, Pensioned Fire man of South Uoston, Mass., Is a sample of the thousands received from grateful men and women who have been benefitted by the World's great tonic-stimulant. In an Interview, Mr. Riley said: "I Joined the Flro Department of South Boston In IS 80 and was lately pensioned off bec.xise of a bad fall while In service, which telescoped my spine. "A little over a v?ar ago I was taken sick while In the ngine house, and It developed Into heart trouble and ma laria. I went to a number of doctors and two different hospitals and went throueh a course of treatment from each, but I did not receive much bene fit from either of them. The doctors would not let me go in swimming, nor smoke, nor drink nything but water. I stopped both tea and coffee. My case was getting very serious when a friend said to ra9; 'Why don't you get a bottle of Duffy's Malt Whiskey? I know a man who was glyen up for all time, and he took Duffy's Malt Whiskey and today he Is as well a man as you can find. So I com menced taking Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey, and tha result Is that the doctors now say that I am all right, ont f never ffit better in my life. Of course, I am very little good as far as heavy work la concerned, owing to my Injury, but I am well, and that is a good thing to be nble to say. I thank you for the remely that put me on my feet again." Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey Is an absolutely pure distillation of malted grain; great care being used to have every kernel thoroughly malted, thus destroying the germ and producing a pre-digested liquid fcod In the form of a malt essence, which is the most ef fective tonlc-tlmulant and invlgorator known to science; roftened by warmth and moisture, its palatablllty and free dom from injurious substances render it so that it can be retained by the most sensitive stomach. rjoge; One teaspoonful in each glass of drinking water during weather will kill til germs. If weak and run down, take a tea- spoonful four times a day in half a glass of milk or '.vater. It stimulates the heart action, causes the Diooa to course more quickly through the veins, and builds new tissue. Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey is sold throughout the world by druggists, grocers and dealers or shipped direct for $1.00 per bottle.

Frank SvorjU, convicted of killing his benefactor at Bellvllle, Kan., several weeks ago, but acquitted of the charge on the grounds of Insanity, has been ordered de ported by the Immigration authorities on the ground of being an Insane criminal. Svorjd came to America about a year ago and made his home for a while with an uncle near Bellvllle, Kan. He ls said to havo been possessed of an extremely vicious temperament and delighted in tor turing and abusing domestic animals. His uncle remonstrated with him for his cru elty, when a neighbor, conceiving tliut Svorjd was being persecuted by his relative, persuaded the boy to make his home with him. Svorjd after remaining with his, new benefactor a few weeks resumed the. prac tice of torturing and abusing animals and seemed to take special delight In abusing a valuable work team. His benefactor at first mildly admonished the boy to cease sbustng the team, but he was at it again In a few days with greater viciousness than ever. He managed to get hold of a shotgun and loaded It with buckshot and one day he hid In the barn and while his benefactor was doing some worl outside the barn Svorjd shot him In the back, completely riddling him with buckshot, causing the In stant death of his benefactor. In the trial of Svorjd It was developed that both of his parents In Bohemia were Insane and that his mother had only left an insane asylum in Bohemia a few days before this boy's birth. The Omaha representative of the immi gration bureau will go to Bellvllle this week, where Svorjd Is still confined in jail, and take him to New York, from whence he will be sent back to Bohemia.
