cure anything from a bunion to a case of

JIM WANTS QUARTERS HERE
Dablman Says Bryan Is Enough Ex
citement for Lincoln to
Hove.
Mayor Dahlman expresses some regret on
account of the referring to the executive
committee, by the state committee, the
matter of selecting state headquarters for
the democratic party. The mayor wants
the headquarters In Omaha. He says that
with Bryan at Lincoln there will be enough
enthusiasm there without the headquarters
and intimates that with the headquarters
in this city his own campaign would be
helped some.
Mayor Dahlman has nothing to say of the
report that A. C. Shallenberger wants him
to withdraw from the gubernatorial race
because Shallenberger and Dahlman have
their "brand on the same bunch." The
mayor Is so confident of winning the nomi
nation that he would Just as soon have a
dozen competitors as not, differing with
Shsllenberger In this respect. Mr. Dahlman
seems to think that Shallenberger is weak
ening by reason of his wanting a clear
field.

THINKS THIS A RUM COUNTRY
Strikes Fat Geraian, to Whom Ho
Poors Forth His Qaecr Stream
of Talk aad Then Both
Wet I p.
"It's a rum day," observed a young,
slightly built man entering the Loyal hotel
lobby Thursday morning, the dampness of
the slight fog still clinging to his gatments.
These garments consisted of a gray pUld
golf cap, suit of grayish color, the
trousers tight fitting and the coat coming
but little below the aist line. The youth's
face was narrow, his hair close clipped.
He carried a supple cane with which ha
struck his trouser leg lightly.
A cosmopolitan observer would have
had no difficulty in classifying him at a
glance a London cockney.
The person addressed was a msn of
medium height with a round and rubious
face, a body to correspond on a larger
scale and a small but fiery mustache.
He was the personification of stolidity in
the genus Teutonic. He had one hand in
his pants pocket and held a smoking cigar
In the other.
At the remark recorded he turned his
stolid countenance on blithe Tommy Atkins
with a look of wonder In his mild blue
eyes. Thus might an eld bull look on a
frisky young calf. His thick lips made no
move to answer. But this was not at all
disconcerting to Tommy. His was the air
of a man to Whqm answers are Immaterial,
even superfluous. He struck his leg with
his cane, looked around the lobby, whistled
a bar of a popular song which. In the
"original" cockney Is sung: "I've mlde
up me mind to slle awi."
The fat man was so astonished by the
nonchalance of the strange youth with the
strange speech that he forgot to smoke
his cigar and It went out while Tommy was
striking his leg, looking around and whist
ling the bar of the popular song.
"It's a rum town, ain't It?" said Tommy
at last, and he of the bay window re
coiled as if from a blow. His cigar almost
fell from his fingers. Tommy noticed noth
lng of this. He whistled some more. about
the man who was going to "s'le awl
"Let's 'ave a wicker bottom," he said,
suddenly.
The fat man followed him as though In
a trance. His thick lip hung lower than
ever, and his blue eyes were fixed on the
little fellow as though he was enchanted.
"It's a rum country," observed Tommy,
when they were seated side by side In rock
lng chairs. The fat man dropped his cigar.
He stooped to pick It up, but, unable to take
his eyes from Tommy, he let It lie.
It'a m Ram Coantry.
"Blym" me, but this Is a rum country.
calmly continued Tommy. "It's me first
trip across the briny. Came over with
some o' me lo'd's 'orses. Chummy o' mine
advised me to 'ave, a bit of look at the
west. So I books for Omeaw an" gets
abroad the bloomlnk trine. D'ye know,
first thing I does, blym' me, If I don't try
to get into a goods van. Well. It 'ad the
door on the side like the Henglish car
riages. A bally chap hlnslde Jerks the
bloomlnk door hopen an' says, 'Wat're you
tryln" to do, rob the myles?' I arsks Mm
where the carriages are. 'E says there
aren't hany carriages. 'Back there's the
cars,' "e says. Cars! thing o" that. 'Ere's
somethlnk, thinks I, to tell me 'chums wen
I gets back to dear hold Lunnon again.
"But I gets Into one of the carriages fi
nally. The guard cornea, arpund and tikes
me ticket. He awsks me If I 'ave a sleep
ing car ticket. . 'No,' I says, 'wot for do I
want a sleeping car ticket? I'll sty awake.
He smiles an' looks wise. I decides 'e's
got a tip on the ponies. So I arsks 'im
what time we'll get to Omeaw. "About die
after tomorrow," 'e says, an" larfs. Well, I
'ad to larf, too then, and I says of course
I wants one of the sleeping car tickets.
"But I was getting a bit homesick for
the streets of Lunnon by the time I gets
'ere. I could see the boys sitting in the
pub an' old Jerry bustling about wl' the
glarses and all the merry talk. I might
've turned around and booked back for
Lunnon if It 'adn't been for this rum
weather. Isn't It rum weather, though?"
Thinks He Makes a Hit.
Tommy appealed to the fat one who was
still gazing blankly, bewildered at this
stream of strange talk with all Its strange
terms. Tommy, easily satisfied, evidently
thought he saws signs of assent and con
tinued: "I arsks a Bobby the wy up town an"
I gets on a tram an' comes 'ere. The sun
was shining and I was beastly 'ome sick.
I 'adn't seen real fog since I'd left Lun
non. Well, I goes to a draper's shop and
buys a bit of new linen and gets a pair
of boots. At the 'otel there's a typist and
I 'as r write a letter "ome. Arfter I'd
posted that I 'ad me dinner and then wan
ders around the streets.
"But I went to bed larst night mighty
'ome sick. This morning I gets up ex
pecting to see the bloomlnk sun shining.
Imagine me surprise when I see the fog.
First I thought I was In Lunnon, but a
second look showed me the fog was gray
and not brown, and not very thick. Still
It was a lot better than the sun. I 'urrled
Into me clothes and, without taking me
breakfast 'urrled out an' enjoyed It while
it larsted.
"It's a rum dy and I don't think so bad
of this country ss I did yesterdle.
"Let's step over to the pub an' 'ave n
bit o" somethink."
And the fat man, still In a mental fog,
followed the genial Tommy out Into the
fresh, damp morning.

IS BUMPER CROP ON THE WAY?
Question that Is Generally Asked
Blare Copious Italna Wednes
day Over .Nebraska.
Is Nebraska framing up for a bu.np?r
corn crop?
This Is the question heard on all sides
Thursday after the soaking rain on the
Wymore and MrCook divisions of the
Burllnpton Wednesday night. A heavy
rain was reported all over the southern
and western parts of Nebraska Wednes
day night, and although it may delay
threshing a Utile, it p.actlcilly assures a
big corn crop. The superintendent of the
McCnok division of the Burllnston had
to raise his estimate on a corn crop 13
per cent last week because of the splrndid
corn weather. All that was then lacking
was a little rain and the rain has come.
The rain of Wednesday night was reporud
as one of the best boosts the cum crup
has had this year and It is now probable
the superintendent of the southern divi
sions will again have to materially taise
their estimates.

EXPERTS TO PRESERVE THEM

Who Can Keep tho Thorough
fares in Proper Condi
tion, He Says.
"Omaha ought to perfect some plan for
paving the streets and keeping them in
good order." declared Henry W. Yates.
president of the Nebraska National bank.
in explanation of his remarks at the pre
liminary meeting of the city charter re
vision committee. "Instead of wrangling
and talking and multiplying words on su h
things as commission plains of government.
we ought to get together In a practical.
common sense way and see what can be
done about our streets.
"My Idea is that a law should be passed
giving the city the power to pave the
streets and assess the cost upon the adja
cent property. Then the preservation of
the paving In proper condition ought to
be under the supervision of a department
with power to act and this department
should be made up of men who are experts
In the science of preserving city streets
in the best possible condition at the small
est possible cost. This Is what is done In
foreign cities where tho streets are gen
erally in perfect condition.
"The citizens have no fault to find as a
rule with the general tax, but ihe upeclal
tax Is not only high but we seem to get no
good from It.
"We have the prettiest city In Anierlcn

Ig Jehovah Dunn, wtioso Bryan-edited
speech placed Mr. Bryan in nomination at
Denver, is to be tue guest of honor at a
banquet given by the Jacksonian club Sat
urday night.
But that isn't the main point. It will be
