superior officer. He had mentioned to
Mr. Brothers the names of Robert W.
Hunt A. Co.,' Osborne Engineering com

Mr. Btrlckler said he answered:
"Mr. Brothers, you misunderstand me. I
do not stand for anything of that kind
and neither does Mr. Williamson."

that Mr. Btrlckler Informed him In a letter
which was placed In evidence that the com
pany of which Brothers waa president had

Charcoal Purifies
Breath
Any
And In Its Purest Form Has Long
Been Known As tht Greatest
Gas Absorber.
Pure willow charcoal will oxidise almost
any odor and render It sweet and pure.
A pailful In a foul cellar will absorb
deadly fumes, for charcoal absorbes one
hundred tlmes Its volume In gas.
The ancients knew the value of char
coal and administered It In rases of Ill
ness, especially pertaining to the atomaeh.
la England today charcoal poultices are
uaea for ulcers, bolls, etc., while some
physlclana In Europe claim to cure many
kin dlseasea by covering the afflicted
akin with charcoal powder.
Stuart's Charcoal Lcstngea go Into the
mouth and transfer foul odors at once Into
oxygen, absorb noxious gases and acids
and when swallowed mix with the diges
tive Juices and stop gas making, fermen
tation and decay.
By their gentle qualities they control
beneficially bowel action and stop diarrhoea
and constipation.
Bad breath, aimply cannot exist when
c'.iarcoat la uaed. There are no Ifs or ends
about this statement. Don't lake our word
for It, but look Into the matter yourself.
Ask your druggist or physician, or better
still, look up charcoal In your encyclo
pedia. The beauty of Stuart's Charcoal
Losenges Is that the highest pharmaceuti
cal expert, knowledge obtainable has been
uaed to prepare a loienge that will give
to man the beat form of charcoal for use.
Pure willow and honey la the result.
. Two or three after meals and. at bedtime
sweeten the breath, atop decay of teeth,
aid digestive apparatua and promote per
fect bowel action. They enrich the aupply
of oxygen to the system and thereby re
vivify the blood and nerves.
Stuart's Charcoal Isengea are sold
everywhere In vast quantities, thus they
must have merit Every druggist carries
them, price, twenty-five cents per box, or

will aend you a trial package by mall,

Firemen Have a Bear Pay Answering
Alarms, hat Ont ef the Five Calls
There Was Not One "ertons
Blaae.
The fslthful democrlTlB of Bouth Omaha
were much disappoint! at the absence of
A. C. Shallenberger last night. The guber
natorial candidate failed to arrive, but
spent the day lnHhe western part of Nebraska.
The crowd, which was won away from
the frolics of the South Omaha Business
Men's csrnlvsl long enough to listen to the
csndldates, was not nearly so numerous ss
on the republican night. The absence of
the best speaker had a dampening effect
on the enthusiasm of the audience. The
most charitable thing to say la that a
lively midway Is a poor place to raise the
standards of a party- which continuously
howls calamity.
In the, absence of A. C. Shallenberger the
entertainment of the assembly fell to the
local candidates, capped by a short address
by O. M. Hitchcock. Jerry Howard, James
English and other local candidates made
their bow.
Five Calls for Firemen.
The South Omeha fire department re
sponded to five calls yesterday. A weed
fire at Twenty-sixth and N streets threat
ened the buildings near the old Packer's
bank building. This wss easily controlled.
Another fire was discovered In a pile of
ties In front of Swift and Company's park
ing plant. A. P. Durkes, 1218 North Twen
ty-third street, was oiling a floor In the
evening and the oil In some way was Ig
nited. The Interior of one room waa dam
aged considerably. The fourth fire was a
still alarm, at Brown park. Fire company
No. 3 responded and easily controlled the
blaze. The fifth fire occurred at 10:46 p. m.
in a small frsme cottage directly north of
the office of the Omaha Electric Light and
Power company. The building was well
scorched before the water arrived. The
offices were not so seriously threatened,
but the New Commercial hotel was too
close to Induce calmness in the guests. The
loss In each Instance was Inconsequential.
Y. H. C. A. Notes.
Mr. Mlyoshl, a Jspanese, has been se

CASE HINGES ON IDENTITY
Evidence Saga-rats Colored Man and
Jap Have Dlmealtr Dlstln
sralsnlna; Faces.
From evidenre submitted to Judge Sears
Saturday morning It might be Inferred that
It is as hard for a negro to tell one Jap
from another as It Is for a Jap to dls
tingutsh between negroes.
The conflicting evidence wss tsken In
the caae which Bcott Barbour, a negro
filed against Kojlro Kioka, proprietor of
the Nagasaki restaurant under the civil
rights bill. Barbour aays Kioka refused
to serve him a meal because of his color.
The case waa first heard In Justice of the
Peace Altstadt's court and the Judge fined
him I2S and coata. Kioka appealed to the
district cout and by agreement a Jury
waa waived and Judge Bears heard the tes
timony. Barbour swore Kioka was In the reatau
rant and In person refused to let him eat
there. Kink a says It waa a caae of mis
taken Identity, as he was In Lincoln the
day the incident took place. Kioka swore
he had served Barbour In his restaurant
several times, while Barbour testified he
had never eaten there while Kioka was la
charge. Kloka's principal defense waa that
he did not refuse the meal and that he
served colored people as well as white,
provided they came across with I he funds
at the end of the meal.
Judge Sears took the caae under advisement.

BOYS CHEER BRYAN AND TAFT
"Canned" Speeches Feature of Open
Ins Day of Janlor Department
f Y- M. C. A.
William Howard Taft and William Jen
nings Bryan addressed the meeting of the
Boys' Civic league at the close of opening
day for the. boy's department of the Young
Men's Christian association in the audi
torium of the Toung Men's Christian as
sociation building Friday night. While the
two candldatea were unable to be present In
person their "canned" speeches were un
corked for the occasion and were loudly
cheered by the young cltlxens, both sides
having strong support.
But the speeches of the candidates were
only a part of the program. Members of
the club were cheered loud and long as
they addressed their comradea on the vital
Issues of the campaign, echoing1 the views
of the great speakers of the real campaign.
As a matter of fact the elocutionary ac
tivity was exceedingly well done, showing
considerable knowledge of the principles of
effevtlve declamation and thorough rehear
sal. The boys who thus bodied forth tha
great men's views on the tariff, Injunctions
etc., were Frederick McConnell, Harry
Kenner, Voyle Rector and Stanton Salis
bury. Other Impersonations, to which the art
of makeup lent assistance were given by
George Wagenaeller of the association
staff. The work of the department was
outlined by Director E F. Dennlson.
The club will give all the boys In Omaha
between the ages of 13 and IS yesrs of
ags a chance to express their preference
for president o the Unltd States on election
day. In order to do this, the boys must
register, yeste.-day being the first d.y of
registration. Another will be held a week
from today and atlll a third will coma
later. The registration was unuaualiy
heavy. The werk of the boy'B department
started off well. From 1:10 to 1:30 supper
was served; from : to 7:16 ths Bible class
was held. This waa followed by an enter
tainment by Air. Wagenseller and ths poli
tical debate.
