Sanitary Bed Comforters
To buy a Comforter is like buying a cat in a sack, you
don't know wbat is inside the cover, you have the merchant's
word for it. And -we say. this, years ago manufacturers of
comforters thought any old cotton was good enough for
comfort filPing, some do yet and the person that had one of
these rag bags: certainly was disgusted with ready made
comforts. But comforters have improved year by year until
now we. can eellVou comforters so beautiful inside that there
is n6 need of making comforters at home.
Comforters from the smallest crib size at 60c each to the
large bed 6iz at $4.50 each.
1-iet us show you our beautiful new line.

"Come back to us again, Bill," was the
rousing plea of an old veteran tn uniform
as the Tatt special pulled out of Leaven
worth, the next stop, where the audience
listened with patience under good cheer
In the rain to the Taft labor speech.
"We have at leant broken the drouth In
Kansas," said Senator Warner of Missouri,
"and the dampness don't make the slightest
difference In the patriotism of the crowd."
The Leavenworth audience, which waa
large, waa made up of old soldiers from
the veterans' home nearby, and of laboring
men.
To the soldiers the candidate first paid
his respects and complimented them on
their Interest; to the laboring men he told
of the record of each party In their be

LOKGWORTH CALLS STORY FALSB
Denies
He Said President
Weald
A sat a Bo Candidate.
CINCINNATI, Oct. S.-Congressman
Nicholas Ixmgworth, who was In Cincinnati
today enroute to the east, where he will
continue his speaking tour, denounced a
a campaign lie the printed story that In a
speech at Rjck Island, III., he propoaed
t bat after Judge Taft had served two term
at president that President Roosevelt would
again be a candidate for the presidency.
Congressman Longwortb's statement In
full follows:
"The fact of 'the case la: At a meeting
at Rock Island, 111., I was Introduced by
the chairman of the meeting as a son of
Ohio, and since Ohio aeemed to be deter
mined to break the record as a mother of
presidents, he said In a jocular vein, that
I probably would be a candidate some time
myself.
"Replying in a similar vein, I said that
I was not there as a candidate for any
office. I waa there to speak of the present
and to advocate the election of Judge Taft
for president, not In the future, but now.
I said that I believe confidently that Judge
Taft would be elected president and that
his administration would be so wise and
beneficial to the people that they would de
mand that he serve them another term.
'After that.' I said, 'Ohio would not be sel
fish and would yield to some other state
perhaps New York to nominate the next
president.'
"I had no particular candidate In mind.
New York coming first Into my mind be
cause of the presence of Mr. Sherman on
the platform.
"At that point m-'ny people shouted
'Roosevelt'' and the audience cheered his
name loudly.
"I am not surprised that some democratic
newspapers fhould have taken this up. be
cause the democratic party Is most anxious
to distract the people's attention from the
issues of the day and talk about either the
i --.- ... .
luiurw or ine past.
The story that I commented unon mv
I have never even thought of, much leas
mentioned, the incident until now." '

Hhoald Come from Enforcement
of Lait Sierrk at L-
. LACROSSE, Wis., Oct. l.-Openlng a
speaking tour which in the present week
is to take him through Wisconsin, Minne
sota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansaa,
Missouri and Illinois, Governor Charlea E.
Hughes of Nw York In a peech here to
day told why he had taken the atump In
upport of William H. Taft for president.
Despite the earllness of his arrival here, a
large crowd greeted him and the Auditor
ium, where he spoke at 8:3 a. m., was filled
to overflowing.
Governor Hughes' presence west of Chi
cago caused widespread interest and every
where provoked the exclamation, "He looks
better than his pictures."
Btlll suffering from an affection In his
throat, the governor explained that Inas
much as he was scheduled to deliver fifteen
address today he would not be able to talk
aa loud as he desired.
"The issue of this campaign Is primarily
the question of an election of an
administration that will represent the
popular will," said Governor Hughes.
Now I tell you the American peo
ple realise now more than in any other
campaign that reforms are necessary, but
all of us, I believe, agree that they shall
be aohleved rather by the enforcement of
the law than by any revolutionary schemes.
The checking of abuses and the regulation
of the trusts are vital questions that must
be accomplished by men of experience.
Not Personal Matter.
"I have no feeling personally against Mr.
Bryan, but I consider it beyond question
that if he were to be in a position to enact
Into law any of his fanciful schemes to
curb the trusts the country would be in
volved In financial and Industrial disaster.
None of his schemes has been tried. Theo
retically and visionary they seem to have
no place In American Institutions, or in
any Institution which to endure must rest
on a foundation of solid Intelligence and
experience.
"On the other hand, Mr. Taft, I believe,
represents all that Is best in American
Ideals; he standa for purity In politics and.
what Is more, for purity In the enforce
ment of law. It has been said that when
he was a judge Mr. Taft dealt harshly with
the laboring man. I tell you what he did
do: He dealt honestly with the laborlna-
man, and there la nothing which work for
the interest of the laboring man more than
honesty and justice administered from the
judiciary. Mr. Taft Is tried, experienced
and absolutely incorruptible and It Is for
this reason that I am speaking in his behalf
here today."

Delegates are also here from Georgia,
Maine, New York, Kansas, Ohio, Illinois,
Iowa Colorado and Oregon. The Oregon
delegate Is John H. Goins, secretary of the
letter carriers' association of that state.
Mr. Go Ins comes to Omaha with the
avowed intention of securing tho 1900 con
vention of the national association for
Portland and has the Pacific coast states
pledged to Ms cause. President Lindsay
says that Portland Is the only city that
haa so far filed formal notice of wanting
the convention next year, but It is under
stood that Milwaukee, Wis., and Dayton,
O.. will go after it.)
Delegates from Ohio, two of whom have
arrived as ani advance guard, will be dis
tinguished from the others by buckeyes,
which they will wear as badges. Kansas
delegates are wearing large sunflowers in
their buttonholes, while President Lindsay
lapel of his coat as a badge.
The executive committee had hoped that
Postmaster General Von Meyer would
honor tho convention by his presence, but
a telegram from him Monday morning ex
pressed his reluctance at refusing the In
vitation, the postmaster general notifying
the committee that it would be impossible
for him to come. The Postofflce depart'
ment has notified the inspector of the Kan
aaa City division to be present, however.
and that official is expected Tuesday.
WOMAN NOT AFRAID OF WEATHER
Miss Rath Kenyon Delivers Mail Rain
or Shine.
Neither the summer sun nor wintry winds
have tanned Mrs. Ruth Kenyon, a woman
delegate to the letter carriers' convention,
and well known all over the United States
for her persistence in delivering mall, rain
or shine, along her rural route.
"I have not missed a day since I went
on over six years ago," said Mrs. Kenyon,
whose run of thirty-three miles a day is
out Of Munroe, Neb. "Flvo years ago the
thermometer sank to 40 below, but I was
after a record and kept on. My hands were
frosen, but, I was able to work next day
just the same.
"In saying I have not missed a day I
don't count time at conventions, which
the last few years I have Invariably at
tended. Then one day last winter a bill
iard was blowing sixty miles an hour over
the prairie and my customers did not get
their mall that day. I don't think that
ought to count either, for I rode Into town
on horseback and the postmaster would not
gtve me the mall, saying that on account
of the wind It could not be handled.
'I have been tn one runaway during these
years and have come near being In many

"Yes, I take care of my own horses, six
of them, every night. We are only required
to have four, but I can use the other two
to advantage even If there Is no extra
money for their keep. I live ,at a farm
house with my father and mother, who are
getting old and my father rent' out the
farm.
"We are going to have a good conven
tion, don't you think? Tlu-re seems to be a
good many coming, at all eventa."
Mr. Kenyon Is a comparatively young
woman and modishly gowned tn a tailor-
made of red cloth trimmed with black gar
nlshlngs of some kind or other. She wore a
big hat on which was mounted a handsome
pair of big black wings. Many delegates
who had met her at previous conventions
kept coming up to her to extend greetings
and It was plain that she will be a central
figure throughout the convention. Woman
like, Mrs. Kenyon went straight to a big
stores soon after arriving fn the city.
'I read such flattering remarks on
Omaha by Mayor Mahool of Baltimore that
I redoubled my determination to come to
this convention," said W. C. Stevens of
Queen Anne, Md., and president of the Mary
land Letter Carriers' association. "Now I
am glad I came. I had never been so far
west as this and the city Is a revelation."

Zeigler, chairman of the republican speak
ing bureau, offering 200 seats on the stage

While the National Rural Letter Carriers'
association is not a- political organization

ecutive committee were among this number

"Retail traffic doe not seem to have
alumped with the end of carnival week,"
said J. H. Talbot of Table Rock, another
delegate. "The stores which I have peeped
Into are full of people this morning. I
suppose that Omaha residents kept out of
them somewhat when they were full of
visitors and are now making up lost time.
Anyhow, there are a good many shoppers
at hand."

NEW TORK, Oct. 5. Ten persona were
killed, more than a dosen injured and thirty
moro escaped death by the narrowest mar
gin In an incendiary fire which wrecked
the tenement house at 71 H Mulberry atreet
early today. That a deliberate attempt waa
made to destroy the house and its occu
pants aa well the police and firemen do not
doubt. Three barrels stuffed with rubbish
soaked with oil were biasing fiercely in the
lower hall, cutting off the escape of the
fifty or more person who were sleeping on
the upper floors. Bom of these died In
their beds, overcome by smoke and then
caught by tha flames. Othera who had
been arouaed too late fell unconaclous be
fore they could reach a window and were
burned to death scarcely an arm's length
f.om safety. Many were Injured by jump
ing from upper windows to the street or
by being crushed as thy fought for posi
tions of safety on th choked fir eacapes.

Several of th Injured who were taken to
hospital are In a critical condition. That
o many persons were killed and aerlously
Injured was in part due to th oareleasness
of the tenant of th house themselves and
their disregard of th rule that fir escapes
must be kept clear of obatructlona at all
times. When the frightened men and
women rushed from their rooms ahead of
the flames they found the wells of the fire
escape platforms covered with boards
which could not be quickly removed. Ex
cited mothera and fathers with children In
their arms and the smoke pouring out of
the windows behind them and the cracking
of the flames In their ears became panic
stricken and tossed their children to friends
In the street. Fully a doaen children were
tossed from the second and third floors and
were caught by men standing In th street
The men and women were later carried
down by firemen en ladders.
LIGHTS STAY FOR CORN SHOW
Electricians Decide Ak-Sar-Ben Lights
- Will Bs Needed Later.
CORN C0L0B WILL BE P0PULAB
All Decorations Will Remain In

Will Be Pat Ip for
Cora Show.
Electrical decorations for the Ak-8ar-Ben
festivities and thousands of other electric
IlKhts will blase in the streets of Omaha
during the National Corn exposition, which
Is now but sixty days off.
It haa been decided to leave up all lights
for the big corn show. Including those on
the city hall and street aa well as other
building. The colored lights at street In
tersections will be taken down temporarily,
as they are colored with dyea and the color
would wash off In early storms, but they
will go up again and the tlty will show
even more lights than during Ak-Sar-Ben.
In colors of corn and festoons represent
ing ears of the yellow grain which has made
the west famous, the electrical decorations
for rhe show will be extravagant. Plana
are being made for decorations at the Audi
torium in electricity which will make that
building a blase of electric lights.
As the state and foreign countries jiend
word to the management of their Interest,
the management becomes even more deter
mined to put the city in readiness for the
thousands who will visit Omaha December
I to It.
Indiana's Trophy.
O. I. Christie, secretary, announces that
"at the meeting of the special agents and
the commission appointed for the National
Corn exposition to be held at Omaha in
December, a movement waa started to ob
tain funds to purchase a trophy to be
awarded annually for the best ten ears of
corn exhibited at the National Corn exposi
tion. Tha value of the trophy is to be 11,000.
"Through the winnings of Indiana corn
growers at the National Corn exposition
held at Chicago last October, and those
made at other national shows, Indiana has
placed Itself In the front rank of the corn
states. The offering of this trophy at this
time gives the state another opportunity to
maintain the lead In all movements for bet
ter corn. Already the best artists and
designers of the country have been put to
work on this corn trophy and It Is hoped
to get one which will eclipse all trophies
of the kind ever offered. It Is Intended that
this trophy will bring much advertising and
glory not only to the state, but to the corn
growers. The special agents of the counties
of the state have each agreed to contribute
tlO toward the trophy. This means that
the interest in this trophy will be state
wide and that It is well termed an Indiana
corn trophy.
"The interest among Indiana corn growers J
for the National Corn exposition Is running
high at this time and it is felt by those
Interested that a mammoth exhibit will be
made by this state at the exposition In
December."
DEFIANCE TO TURK
(Continued from First Page.)
the powers encourages Bulgaria to persist
In Its present attitude.
Varna and other Bulgarian towns are
placarded today with declarations that, the
moment has now arrived to proclaim In
dependence, as otherwise Turkey, on the
strongth of the treaty of Berlin, w!!'. de
mand the restitution of eastern Rumella.
France Hope o Prevent War.
PARIS, Oct. 6. France ha decided to
enact the role of mediator with the object
of preventing war between Turkey and
Bulgaria. Foreign Minister Ptnhon al
ready haa begun a series of conferences
with the diplomatic representatives of the
powers with the idea of reaching an un
derstanding, the purpose of which should
be the maintenance of peace, when the offl
coal news of Prince Ferdinand's proclama
tion at Tirnovo arrived.
The foreign minister conferred this morn
ing with M. Iswolsky, the Russian minister
of foreign affairs, and Naoum Yacha, the
Turkish ambassador. This afternoon hn
will meet the Austro-Hungarlan, British
and American ambassadors, as well as the
Bulgarian diplomatic agent, M. Standoff.
The situation ta considered most grave.
The proclamation of the Independence of
Bulgaria actually has been made, and it
probably would be useless te attempt to
Induce Prince Ferdinand to withdraw It.
Bala-arlan Troops Mobilising.
It Is known that the Bulgarian cavalry
already Is mobilizing om the frontier and
Prince Ferdinand Is determined to stick to
his guns. On the other hand. It probably
would be equally difficult to persuade Tur-
key tj accept Bulgaria's act, while the
sympathies of the powero aro In favor of
the maintenance of the Intearity of Euro
pean Turkey under a regime of liberty.
The diplomatic representatives of the
Dowers generally believe that war would
a 1 1 ruin tn tha naw nnnmt it nt lima I ml In I
Turkey and the sultan would use war as
pretext for withdrawing the constitution.
Thls would be a repetition of his coursSjin
1876, when he withdrew this same consti
tution prior to the outbreak of the Russo-
Turkish war.
Germany for Mediation.
BERLIN, Oct. 8. News was received at
the foreign office last night that Turkey
had been Informed that Bulgaria was de
termined to proclaim lta Independence at
Tirnovo today.
Should the Turkish government seek th
advice of th power regarding th ad
visability of . asserting its supremacy over
Bulgaria by military force, Germany would
not be able to advise the porta to go to
work. The Turkish army la not prepared;
the Bulgarian la ready.
