General Bell states that they failed .to
meet the expectations of the department

The officers named are therefore ad
monished, "that the practices In which
they are shown to have been engaged are
subversive ot discipline, highly disregard

sidered It may finally, In some cases, ba
all furnished by those engaged In the
works, which Is the Ideal that should be
held In view the workman both capitalist
and worker, employe and employer.
"This, however, Is not for our time. We
are only polneera, whose duty Is to start
(he movement, leaving to our successors
ts full and fit development as human
society advances. The first company so
pwned jvlll mark a new era In the relations
pf labor and capital. We may not have to
rait long for this experiment, since It Is In
fine with recent developments. The writer
has no desire to embark again In business.
But nothing twould appeal to him so
strongly as his- Ideal. He would like to
address a body .of workmen, many thou-
ands In number, as all. fellow partners.
i "The writer Is convinced," Mr. Carnegie
says In conclusion, "that this Is to be the
highly satisfactory and final solution. The
first step In advance has already come in
the natural progress of evolution no revo
lution necessary and it Is earnestly pressed
upon he attention of the Intelligent work-
lngman and his leaders,, some of whom
seem to have been misled Into devoting
themselves to the advocacy of a system,
admittedly unsulted to our day, which re
quires an organic change In the relations
of society, and indeed involves a complete
revolution In the nature 6t matv the task
of .a thousand years, The experiment ot
labor-and-capital union workmen-capital
ists has exceeded, so far all expectations.
Even the convinced socialist might, there
fore, hall It as at least a step In the right
direction, making labor's position better
than before, saying to himself: let the
future bring what it may, a bird In the.
hand Is often worth a whole flock In the
bush. Our socialistic remedy is for the
future; let -us not -. forget this Is our deal
ing with the present."
"Such seems to the writer the part of

SOME COUNCILMEN WRITE CHECKS
71 era Her ot These (laid to Be In Hands
ot Federal Officers Who Are
laTestlaatla This Part
of the Scandal.
PITTSBURG, Dec. Attorneys for the
prosecution In the corrupt practices of
Pittsburg counctlmen and two former bank
ers under arrest, declare the trials will be
urged to as speedy a concrush n as the court
machinery will permit. District Attorney
Blakeley today said he would try to have
the cases disposed of before the municipal
election In February at which the council
men arrested are candidates tT re-election.
Attorneys for the defendants say they will
be ready to meet the charges St any time.
In connection with the alleged bribing of
counctlmen by bankers to secure deposits
of city funds It Is said the plan followed
was to have the banks' New York corre
spondents forward the amount of the
alleged corruption fund to another Pitts
burg to the credit of the councilman ne
gotiating the bribery deal, he to make dis
tribution t othe other councllmen. Some of
the most wary councllmen operated through
safety deposit boxes, but others wrote
checks against the fund. It Is said a num
ber of these chocks will be presented as
evidence. This feature, It Is said, has been
receiving the attention of federal, agents
who likely wlil testify In tho trials. Presi
dent Roosevelt, It .Is believed, has been In
strumental In pressing the federal investi
gations since the first suggestion of Irreg
ularities by rational bankers reached the
Department of Justice.
There la comment on the fact that while
the charges against councllmen Involve at
least half a dosen ordinances practically
no evidence of details have been given out
except the matter relating to depositing
the city's funds.
GIVE HIM TWO . CHANCES
Let OpportnnltT Have the Second
Chance to Knock at Ills
Door.
While opportunity Is said to knock at
least once at every man'a door, the party
Inside has no right to -expect the panels
to be kicked .In. The answer should gen
erally be as prompt as the knocking. Yet,
It really seems fair that he should some
times have another chance. He might not
have heard the first time, or not have
been In fitting garb Jo open the door. In
other words, a man appears entitled to two
chances at any momentous occasion In life,
the second' to acknowledge nd retrieve
any primal mistake. Few can be certain
that a proposed move Is always judicious,
and an opportunity to acknowledge and
rectify the error seems only just. A man
may be pardoned for not taking Ufa In
surance the first time he has a chance,
That is his mistake. But If he refuses I
second time, after having had full facili
ties for investigation, tfiat Is a sin. He
will probably even then have additional
opportunities to Insure, but does not de
serve them.

DEFENSE OF THORNTON HAINS
Evidence of Tna Witnesses Tends to
Show lie Whs Jiot Principal
In Crime.
FVSHINO, N. Y.. Dec. 2S.-The defen
scored two material points In the evidence
developed In the trial today of Thornton
Halns, which the defendant's counsel
assert disprove the charge that the author
as a principal with his brother. Captain
Feter C. Halns. Jr., In the killing ot Will
iam E. Annls of the Bayslde Yacht club
In Little Neck bay. An exhausting cros-
xamlnatlon of the two witnesses for the
defense left the main points of their tsetl
mony unshaken and Thornton Halns re
turned to Long Island jail tonight, declar
ing that the evidence proved his innocence.
Testimony that Thornton Halns did not
go to Bayslde to kill Arnls, but to look
at property was testified to by Charles
R. Weaver, sales agent for the Halns
Concrete Mixer company, who declared
that It was at his Insistent Invitation that
the Halns brothers cn August 15 postponed
trip to Sandy Hook and went to Bayslde
to Inspect real estate there. Weaver
almost sobbed on the stand when he said
he felt' responsible for sending the Halns
brothers on the Journey. The mental con
dition of Captain Halns previous to the
shooting was testified to by 'Mr. Weaver,
who said that from the actions of the
army captain he believed him to be Ir
rational. The second material point
brought out by the defense today was
rawn from Jofin TIerney, a garbage
collector, who said he was an eye-witness
to the tradedy. TIerney declared that Cap
tain Halns had ceased firing before his
brother ran down to the float and the
efendant did not draw his revolver until
Charles Roberts, a club member advanced
toward Captain Halns. with the captain's
revolver In his hand. TIerney said that
Thornton Halns did not point his revolver
at any one on the float, but called for an
officer to arrest his brother. He did not
see Mrs. Annls on the float. A severe
cross-examination did not make TIerney
waver In the essentials of his direct testi
mony.

H Arrested Wk Are Being Ques
tioned In Connection with

MINDEN, Neb., Dec. 28. (Special Tele

Merchants bank at Hartwell and the State
banlc at Keene and the Ceresco bank.
These men, who have been hanging about
Mlnden for two or three months, have
made numerous trips in the vicinity In

the local officers to detain them. Two,
Otis Legget and Albert H. Carr, who are
brothers-in-law, ' live at Red Cloud. The
third gives his name at Claude Lloyd.'
One had In his possession when arrested
an automatic revolver. The three carried
stock of indelible Ink, some cartridges
and cosmetics which they claimed they wets
engaged In selling. ,:'

their frequent dtajearancea when thtso
tallied with some of the recent bank rob
beries. On the night the bank at Keene was
robbed, tho men left Mlnden and went to
Wilcox, where they ate lunch late and
disappeared. Wilcox Is not far from Keene.
At times the men have been seen to

was established beyond doubt, a raxor with
which he had. killed himself being gripped
in the cold hand of the victim, while a
rambling note explaining the deed was
found on a table. This note was evidently
written December 23, on which day he
borrowed a revolver from a neighbor, but

Announcements of the Theaters.
That this Is children's week at the
Burwood there Isn't the slightest doubt, as
the mammas and papas are bringing the
little folks by the score to see "The Prince
Chap," the story of which happily con
tains a Christmas tree. The delightful
play Is made the more charming by two
Omaha little girls (Mercedes Spong, aged
6, and Cella Marguets, aged t) upon whom
rest much responsibility In tact, were It
not for these embryo actresses, there
would be no play at all. The advance sale
for the week is very largo. A matinee will
be given today; also on Thursday, Friday
and Saturday afternoons.
Marie Doro, supported by Orrln Johnson
and a Charles Frohman company, comes
to the Boyd theater this evening In "The
Richest Girl," a new comedy that has
proved most successful. Miss Doro Is a
winsome mlsswho has more than made
good In tho role, and Mr. Johnson Is one
of the best known leading men In the
country. The play has been carefully
staged and Is commended as an excellent
holiday attraction. The engagement Is for
Tuesday 'and Wednesday evenings and a
matinee on Wednesday.
The New Years attraction at the Boyd
will be "Little Johnny Jones," the Oeorge
M. Cohan success that has not yet faded
Its tuneful numbers, its merry choruses
and Its engrossing love story will nover
grow old. And if these sre not enough,
the presence of Big Bill Keough as the
mysterious stranger ought to more than
appeal to the public. It Is one of those
quaint creations, in which the author's
thought has found a most accurate ex
pression In tho actor's ability. "Little
Jobnny Jones" will be with us Thursday,
Friday and Saturday nights and will play
a special matinee on Friday afternoon and
another on Saturday. The newsboys and
paper carriers of the city will be the guests
ot the management on Friday afternoon.
