An unfortunate combination of clrcum-
atancea has turned out some good. W. A.
Plxley will be disappointed In his ambi
tion to win the United Btates field trials
championship for setter dogs In January,
Owing to Illness which will prevent his
trainer taking the dog. Captain White'

the chance of giving Omaha dng lovers
and sportsmen an opportunity of seeing a
champion work whllo In championship

Captain Whltestone has beer, at Wheeler,
Miss., In charge of J. T. Jones, trainer
who has prepared the dog for the United
Btates championship contest, the trials to
be held next month. But Just now sickness
In Jones' family will prevent his attending
the trials, and so the dog will not contest.
Mr. Plxley sent word to his trainer to
have the dog sent to Omaha at once, and Jt
will be here New Year day. Friday and
Saturday afternoons at 3 o'clock he will be
started on exhibition courses from Fifty-
first and Cass streets (Dundee), In com
pany with Tony Boy's Girl, another of

LOOK OUT FOR BAD FIVE CASE
Vncle Kan Says Another One of His
Vs Is Being- Misrepresented.
The secret service department of the
Treasury department has Bent out an
alarm that a new and dangerous counter
feit $5 sliver certificate has appeared.
The counterfeit Is a photo-mechanical re
production of the certificate of the act
of August 4, 1886, series 1899, check let
ter "A," face plate 652, back plate 493.
J. W. Lyons register, Ellis II. Huberts
treasurer, with portrait of Indian chief.
Serial number A41823133.
The appearance of the note Is deceptive.
It Is printed on two pieces of paper, with
silk fibers between. Seal and denomina
tional design and serial number is lighter
than in the genuine. The printed face of
the note is one-eighth of an inch and the
back one-fourth of an Inch shorter than
the genuine. The word "treasurer" In
Italics under the signature of Roberts Is
badly printed and the letters are im
perfectly formed. The gineral crows
hatching of the note is badly broken and
somewhat coarser than In the genuine.
On the back of the note the words, "This
note is not receivable," are badly repro
duced, the lines broken and the letters
Imperfect. The word "Five" on the back
of the note, immediately to the right of
the panel containing the words 'United
States of America," are imperfectly re
produced. Vnder the first "A" in Amer
ica in the genuine there Is a small un
shaded space, but in the counterfeit this
space Is entirely filled. The shading un
der the words "United States of America"
look like a picket fence In bad repair in
stead) of being regular, with lines run
ning all the way from the dark sharing
to the bottom of the panel. The color of
the back very nearly approximates that
of the genuine, being only a trifle darker
than the genuine.

Those who believe the Missouri river will
bo opened to navigation within the next
decade and expect future sessions of con
gress to make appropriations for Its per
manent improvement are not discouraged
by the annoucemcnt of Congressman Edgar
C. Ellis, president of the Missouri River
Navigation congress and member of the
rivers and harbors committee of the house,
that there will be no rivers and harbors
bill t the present session.
Writing to an Omaha newspaper man
who Is making a report on the river. Con
gressman Ellis makes the statement that
none of the rivers will get attention at
the short session, and Mr. Ellis himself
has sailed for Panama, where he will
spend several weeks, supposedly In con
nection with harbors there.
Mr. Ellis waa defeated In the Kansas
City district and will not be returned to
congress next year, though he has been
working on plans for two years to get ap
propriations through congress which would
make the Missouri river a permanent com
mercial waterway, seize it as a big enter
prise such as the Panama canal and com
plete tbe work of making it a real water
way from Fort Benton, Mont., to the Gulf
of Mexico.
Omaha Men Still Hope.
But even the defeat of the Missouri con
gressman, who has been one of the most
active workers for river Improvement, has
not discouraged those in Omaha who be
lieve tho river should and will be opened
and that federal money to the extent of
some t50,0ti0 per mile will eventually be
expended on the stream. Montana has
taken up the ' work for the river, and,
though that great state has but one con
gressman, it has power, and the Montana
Waterways association has been organized
for the purpose of "staying with congress"
on the Missouri river matter.
When Congressman Ellis returns from
Panama he Intends going to work at once
for the success of the next Missouri River
Navigation congress, which is to be held
at Yankton. During the year many local
organizations of the congress have been
formed and will send delegates to Yankton.
Omaha has a local branch of 450 members,
and these extend all along the river to
Fort Benton, where, in a small town, over
twenty-two ranchers, business men, wool
growers and cattlemen have declared for
the opening of the river and Its absolute
necessity to get the products out of the
state of Montana. Some of the towns and
cities which are most actively behind tho

churches, hospitals and old people's homes
for colored people, without having been
authorized to do so. Chief of Police Dona
hue arrested tho man in the store of
Thomas Kllpatrick & Co. Thursday morn
ing. Williams had been endeavoring to se
cure a contribution from Robert Cowell,
manager of the firm, who suspected that
the man was a fraud and notified the chief.
Williams Is being held at the police station
as a suspicious character.
"It is all a mistake," declared the self
styled bishop in his cell at the city jail.
"Yes, I'm a bishop of the Afro-American
Methodist church, and they will have lo
prove I ain't," he continued warmly.
When asked how much money he had
collected In Omaha, he said he had no Idea
how much It would amount to. The
Apostles church on N street, between
Twenty-sixth and Twenty-seventh streets,
In South Omaha, Is claimed by Williams
as his pastorate. He nays he has been

JUDS0N GIVES UNIQUE DINNER
Has Names of Paints on Menn Cards
at an Elaborate "Com
pany" Spread.
"Red Seal Filler," In place of soup.
Thirty-six managers and salesmen of the
Midland Glass and Paint corvpany picked
up a menu card In tho olive room of Hotel
Rome Wednesday evening and, expecting
some kind of a starter for a big "spread"
glvji by F. W. Judson, they found In
stead of tomato soup on the card, "red
seal filler." Then they went on down
the list and found about where the wine
should come in, the name "Lcptyne."
According to paint salesmen, "leptyne"
Is a certain preparation of turpentine,
handled by the Midland Glass and I'r.lnt
company, and while it might be good for
a small boy before breakfast, the gurats
wondered whether they were to bo given
a grandmother's cure for a certain trouble
of youthful pneumagastrlo nerves, or
whether the firm's brand had been ap
lied to Burgundy.
Mr. Judson gave the dinner to the em
ployes, and salesmen of the company were
present from Di-nver, Seattle and Mon
tana points, which territory Is covered by
the firm.
