The application of Joe Ward, also of tha
Trl-State league, was granted and he waa
fined
?fw Purchase Itnte.
The commission decided upon December
1 as the date when the major league clubs
are allowed to purchase playera. Hereto
fore they could not purchase players be
fore February 1.
Freeman, Johnson, Jesse Tannehlll and
Kellpy of the Washington American league
club were reinstated, but fined $200, with
$150 of each sentence suspended.
v Player John Innes, formerly of the
Haverhill, Mass , club, who was under con
tract to the Philadelphia Attic: leans and
drafted by Denver, was awarded to Phila
delphia. The claim of the Detroit Americana
against the Johnstown, Pa., club of the
Trl-Statn league was granted In part, S750
being asked for and $375 allowed.
August Herrmann was re-elected chairman
of the commission and John & Bruce was
elected secretary.
In his annual report President Herrmann
showed that 4.877 letters and telegrams had
been sent out during last year and 124
decisions made. This was an Increase of
S3 per cent over the work of last year.
President Herrmann reported that the
actual cost of maintaining the commission
during the year was S8.0CO. Mr. Harrmann
also touched lightly upon the ticket scalp
ing cases In Chicago and stated that a new
method of aeUIng tickets must be made.
The alleged ticket scalping during the
world's series games In Chicago waa dis
cussed by Mr. Herrmann as follows:
"As In the past, the series as played
waa of the highest standard and met with
the approval of the base ball public, the
only unfortunate thing being the manner
In which the sale of tickets was handled
In Chicago. On Investigating this matter
pnough evidence was submitted to show
conclusively that a change must be made
In the futare to protect the public. With
that end In view the commission will here
after handle the sale of every ticket dur
ing the world's series under detailed rules
to be hereafter adopted."
O'llrlen Slna Umpire Ovrena.
President Joseph O'lSrlen of the Ameri
can association announced this afternoon
that he had signed Umpire Owens of Kan
sas City to officiate v during the coming
season at American association games.
Owens unipiicd about fifteen games of
the National league last season and his
work was considered highly satisfactory.
He originally came from the American
association and there waa no Idea that he
would not stay with the National league.
When President Pulliam was Informed
that President O'Brien had Blgned Owens
he "was very much surprised, and stated
that ho was under ttio Impression th.tt
the latter1 had signified his Intention to
remain In the National league as he was
perfectly satisfied with the terms offered
by the league, but if he thought he could
better himself by going to the American
association he would not throw the least
ohstaclo In hs way.
President O'Brien stated that he had con
sidered Owens as a free, agent In the mat
ter and if he had thought the man was
bound by a contract to the National league
or In any way obligated to remain In it
he would tinder- no circumstances have
made him an offer, as It was not hi
policy to be antagonistic.

The Right Reverend Bishop Williams,
representing himself as one of the "head
men" of the African Apostollo Methodist
church, whose headquarters' tire at Webb
City, Mo., will spend the next two weeks In
rest and seclusion in the Douglas county
Jail. So will the colored "prelato" bo
forced to take a vacation from the orphan
age and rescue work he has been conduct
ing at 312 Railroad avenue, and at Twenty
Blxth and N streets, South Omaha, for
the last two months.
While soliciting funds for an alleged or
phanage to be started soon In South Omaha
the "bishop" squeezed a number of sub
scriptions of $1 or more each from business
firms and private Individuals and flashed
made-to-order bishop's credentials and
typewritten commissions to gather coin
from all quarters of the globe to "carry on
tlla Lord's work."- ' ,";"rf ,'' "
Rev. Mr. 'Williams Is blessed with a re
ligious appearance and has undoubtedly
secured money from many tersons. His
only method of bookkeeping consists of a
small pencil-scrawled and erasure-decorated
booklet, worn with use ' and said to
be considerably "doctored" for the pur
pose Of giving the posaeasor credence
among those who are asked to contribute.
An Police Judge Crawford passed Judgment
on the "bishop" In police court Tuesday
morning, he said to the prisoner:
"In my opinion you are nothing but a
charity swindler and laxy loafer and I
don't hesitate a bit to give you a Jail sen
tence." .
Captain of Police Dunn said that ' ac
cording to the receipt bpok, 1573.15 had
been taken in by the man in this city and
elsewhere, but he thought many of the
entries had been raised from $1 to 85 or 10
or that they had been faked, altogether.
Cpataln 'Dunn also stated- that "Bishop"
W'illlams' commission as a bishop was
questionable, having been signed; witnessed,
certified and otherwise d0orated In th
same handwriting, although . four or five
different men were supposed to have
affixed their signatures. "
Officer Lahey told of going to the sup
posed orphanage and finding two mat
tresses and some broken chairs as the only
furnishings' and no occupants there, either
children or adults. ,
The complaint filed against the "bishop"
and on which he was convicted charged
that he was a vagrant.. .,

Annoanrementa of the Theaters.
As usual the Orpheum offers a varied
and Interesting program. It would be dif
ficult to Imagine anything more amusing
than "The Hebrew Messenger Hoy and
the Thespian" presented by Howard and
Howard. At each performance the audi
ence greets the parodies and comic aot.ga
with peals of laughter. The same. Is also
true of tho travesty, "Dream of Baby
Days," given by Hayes and Johnson. James
11. Cullen Is. as previously, most popular.
The many who enjoy daring feats of bal
ancing and aerial work will find the Klt
abanxai troupe and McPhee and Hill re
markable performers. These attractive
youngsters, the Two .Pucks, ' and the
Musical Cralgs have also met with marked
success.

ROOF GARDES TO TOP SCULITZ
Tolf Hanson May Operate Hotel with
New Cafe.
BULLDLN0 MUST BE ENLARGED
Hathakellar In Suliway and t
Stories on onth Part ot Hotel If
Negotiations t'nder Way
Are Carried Oat.
There is a possibility that Omaha
people next July may sit on a roof
garden and cool fevered brows by tha aid of
long glasses filled with Ice and other
things. Negotiations have been on be
tween the owners of the Bchllti hotel and
Tolf Hanson looking toward the control
of the hotel by the latter who would oper
ate it In conjunction with his cafe across
the street.
A deal is far from being consummated but
is equally far from being out of the ques
tion. If It goes through the two buildings
will be connected by a subway across! Six
teenth street so that a real rathskeller as
well as a roof garden Is among the future
possibilities to which the thirsty will look
forward.
To carry out the roof garden scheme that
part of the Schlltx hotel building to the
south and only two stories In height, must
have several stories added to It so that It
would be on a level with the north portion
of the hotel structure. Options for either
the purchase or the leasing of the hotel
have been offered Hanson, who declares
that the latter is the only proposition he
will consider and that, only In the event
the necessary stories are added to the
south part of the hotel.
The Heidelberg cafe of the Schllta has
been until recent time the best known place
to eat among those living outside of Omaha
at least. The central location of the prop
erty makes It eminently desirable for al
most any purpose and with enlargement
could be made to equal any hotel propo
sition In Omaha as an Investment.
BANK CLERKS SIGH LOUDLY
Annual Meetings at Hand, bat
Elderly Presidents Cling; Like
Limpets to Their Berths.
All the national banks of Omaha wll' hold
annual meeting Tuediy, January 12, as
provided by charter and bylaw. There will
be few changes In the oMcera of these In
stitutions, with the exception of the Mer
chants National, where It Is said Fred H m
llton will be advanced fr m an assistant
cashlershlp to be cashier, a pcsitlon wh ch
hns been vacant f r s me tlm. Tne Unit d
Slates National bank and the Union Sto.k
Yards bank of Sou'.h Omaha recently f lied
vacancies caused by resignation and a num
ber of men In each advanced one notch
apiece.
Inquiry among the younger men tn the
banks of the city deve ops a su prising
unan'mlty cf opinion that tho time Is ripe
for an lnfjslon of new blood Into tha
higher-up veins and arteries of these fidu
ciary Institutions. This opinion, while well
nigh unanimous, was most guardedly tet
fourth lest perchance a capillary or two
might suddenly be amputated. Strangely
enough tho older men n tho banks do not
share the opinions of those who w uld fill
their shoes, and apparently intend to cling
to presidencies or vice presidencies until
absolute in bl Ity to work longer pries them
from these desirable berths.

Easterner Gets Self In Trouble with
Commercial Club Men Through

In a rash l'.l-advlsea moment the sec
retary of the Trenton, N. J.", Chamber of
Commerce recently mailed a New Tear's
greeting to chambers and commercial clubs
throughout the length and breadth of this
country and Canada. He received a sur
prising number of acknowledgements and
has been busy writing letters of explana
tion even since. The greeting was printed
on a map of the country and on this map
only such enormous cities as Trenton
(population 35,000), New York, Boston,
Philadelphia' and Baltimore In the east
were located. The only western cities
which the mapmaker knew were Chicago,
St. Louis, Minneapolis and San Francisco.
So from .Omaha, Kansas City and a score
of other places commissioners and secre
taries .of commercial clubs have been ex
postulating with the Trenton man whose

To Whom it-Aiay Concern:
I have suffered from paralysis,
rheumatism and general nervous dis
ability for a good many years, but
after taking one of the local treat

walked without limning, which was
the first time for eight months.
I can truthfully and sincerely say,
with great . pleasure, that I have , re
ceived more benefit from this one
treatment than from any other treat
ments I have taken heretofore.
Respectfully,
