TAKES POISON F0R""wHISKY
Mistake of Alfred llartry Proves Fatal
Wlthia a Coople of
Hours.
Thinking that a carbolic acid bottle con
tained whisky, Alfred Hartry, a painter
who lived at 3321 Ohio street, drank some
of the poison when he returned home from
work about 6 o'clock Tuesday evening and
died at 7:40 o'clock. Hartry had been tak
ing medicine for some time, and on the
doctor's advice had also taken a small
drink of whisky with each dose of the
medicine. His taking the poison instead
of liquor was purely accidental, as the un
fortunate man came home last night in the
best of spirits and wits laughing and joking
with members ot his family when he took
the fatal draught.
Hartry discovered his mistake as soon as
he could taste what lie had drank, and
called to his wife to get him something to
counteract the poison. Drs. N. F. Steiner
and W. S. Glbbs were summoned at once,
but their most strenuous efforts failed tp
save the life that mere accident soon
snuffed out.
Coroner Brewer, the police and Under
taker Jackson were notified of the case.
The latter docllned to give out any Informa
tion of the affair except to the coroner's
office, which he told of the mere fact and
cause of death, and It was necessary for
a police officer to visit the Hartry home to
get the particulars of the case.
It is thought that the dead man was
about 45 years old. He is survived by a
wife and family, and by his brother, Harry
C. Hartry.

When Matter of Payment of Does
Is Taken Up for Con

vention of the Nebraska Federation of
Women's Clubs continue to arrive and about
200 representing ninety-three clubs were
registered Wednesday aftfcrnoon. Besides
these, several score of other club women
have come to attend tha meetings merely
as guests.
The report Wednesday morning that Mrs.
F. H. Cole has reconsldored her determina
tion not to run for the presidency and will
be a candidate makes her election prac
tically certain. There Is little discussion
of other officers to be elected and as both
the recording and corresponding secretaries,
Mrs. W. D. Mead of York and Mrs. W. S.
Swanson of Oakland, are eligible to serve
another term they will probably be re
elected If they will consent to run.
Wednesday morning's session was devoted
to an amendment of the federation's by
laws and discussion of club interests. Sec
tions 1 and 3 of article vlll were
amended to make all clufe dues payable, by
May 15. beginning May, 1809k and to provide
that all clubs in arrears two years, shall
bo dropped from membership, but after
a lapse of two years, may again bs ad
mitted to membership.
Much objection was expressed to the
penalty of two years before renewal is
possible, but discussion indicated that the
amendment as proposed was well advised
and it finally carried.
Fine Specimen of Pottery.
Mrs. Morey of Hastings, chairman of the
art committee, reported the collection of a
number of fine specimens of American pot
tery which Is to be used as a circulating
exhibit In the state. The only cost attached
to the exhibit Is the payment of the ex
pense of transportation from the last town
to the town wishing the exhibit Besides
this there is at present in circulation In tha
state a collection of Lorado Taft's photo-
grapns and a collection of oil paintings
loaned Dy me Velasquez club of New York,
Mrs. Jean Sherwood of Chicago, ex-chalr-
man of the General Federation's art com
mlttee, was a gueet of the afternoon and
spoke briefly of the Importance of the
study of art.
Miss Charlotte Templeton, secretary of
the Nebraska LlbMry commission, spoke of
the needs of the commission. First and
most of all the work needs at least fo.OOO
properly to carry it on. The present ap
propriation is but $3,000 a year and Miss
Templeton urged thn club women to use
. their Influence with the next legislature to
Increase this aproprlatlon at least 12,000 a
year. She told of the means to which vari
ous towns over the state have resorted to
raise funds for library purposes. One town
had a labor day on which many of its peo
ple contributed their earnings for that
date to the library fund. The busi
ness men gave a per cent of their day's
proceeds and the women established a hair
dressing and manicuring booth on the
town square, where they worked for the
causa.
A labor bureau was another feature of
the day. To this group of volunteer work
ers people brought all sorts of work, rang
ing from the reblndlng of a skirt to most
particular and difficult tasks. About $3,000
was raised that day for library work. Fol
lowing the program the doksrtes visited
the Deaf and Dumb Institute upon invita
tion of Superintendent White.
Library and Literature.
The library and literature sessions occu
pied the afternoon. Report of the state
committee chairman indicated a growing
interest among the study and self-culture
clubs following this line of work. These
clubs indicate a majority of the federation's
membership, although many of the clubs
carry other lines of work in addition to
their study.
"Needs of the State IJbrary Commis
sion," presented by Miss Charlotte Temple
ton of Lincoln, secretary of the Nebraska
commission, and round table conducted by
Mrs. H. L. Keefe, president of the federa
tion, composed the afternoon programs,
after which the majority of the deleaates
visited the Deaf and Dumb Institute upon
Invitation of Superintendent White.
The automobile ride promised by the
Commercial club proved a disappointment.
Although the women waited outside of the
church for nearly half an hour only a few
machines materialized and the great ma
jority were compelled to go on the street
cs is.
