EASING UP ON STREET RAILWAY
.Imbalance Chasers Not as Stroaajly
In Evidence an Conrt Records
as Elsewhere.
Not many dsmagn suits atainst the
Omaha : Council Bluffs Street railway
have been Initiated at recent terms of court,
thouth the number of personal Injury
cases of other kinds has not diminished.
This Is illustrated in the days precedlng;
the opening of the February term of court
when petitions are filed In the clerk's of
fice, but the street railway company does
not appear as defendant. The reason for
this is that the company nearly two years
ago adopted the policy of settling all cases
possible out of court. Not, of course,
"hold-up" affairs, but those In which the
plaintiff might get a, verdict It the matter
went to a Jury. .
While other damage suits continue In
orthodox number, the practice of "ambu
lance chasing" does not appear to grow In
Omaha, and la assuredly not nearly so
much of a crying evil as In many other
communities, a fact which speaks well for
the ethical practice of the Douglas county
bar. It also testifies somewhat to the fact
that temptations cannot be so great aa in
cities larger and smaller. In the former
there are numerous lawyers with nothing
else to do than work up cases of tbr kind
agalnat corporations, because there are so
many lawyers for the amount of legitimate
busineaa at. hand: In smaller towns the
total bualness which the bar Is called upon
to transact Is often pitifully small. Hence
the fact that the neighborhood of a home
where some Injured man Is resting often
looks a fw hours after tha accident aa It
a convention, ft attorneys was on.

DAVE ROWDEN HAS QUIT

Hands In Resignation.
WILL BE PROMPTLY ACCEPTED
Basil Hihlatrom to Be JVamed by
Mayor Dahlman aa RatvaVn'a Sae
cessor In t'harce of the
Manlrlpal HaUdla.
At last It has happened; the Inevitable
has occurred. Dave Rowden has resigned.
And there Is joy In the camp of the Jlmo-
crats.
The bellicose and venerable custodian of
the city hall, the "matchless" custodian
as he Is known by the officials on account
of his penurious qualities, the autocrat
who has reigned as a csar ever since
Mayor Jim became mayor, has filed with
the president of the city council his reslg.
nation to take effect February 1. The
resignation will be acted upon tonight and
at the aame time the council will be asked
to confirm Dave's successor, Emll Wahl
slrom, whose name the mayor will send to
that body.
E.very councilman wno nas oeen ap
proached on the subject says he will
gladly vote to accept tho resignation of
tho custodian and consequently there
unmitigated Joy In the city hall, for the
officials and clerks have visions of clean
towels, soap, matches, enough steam to
J keep off goose pimples, and an occasion
ally cleaned window. These articles and
operations have arways cost too much, ac
cording to Dave.
,Says Old Vets Mast Work.
Rowden goes to Milford to become com
mandant of the state soldiers' home, by
appointment ot Governor Bhallenberger.
He is a Grand Army man and because he
Is physically able to do a day's work he
contends that all old soldiers ought to
work, snd to the officials In the city hall
he has told of the great things hs in
tenda to accomplish at Milford.
"It's all foolishness, this hiring of men
to do the work around the Soldiers' home,
said Dave. "There are plenty of soldiers
there to do the work, and I Intend to have
'em do It, and to fire all the people on the
pay roll. Why, the old aoldiers can get
up at 4 or. 6 o'clock In the morning and
plant potatoes and weed In the garden while
It is cool, and then I will let 'em rest dur
ing the hot part of the day. It Isn't good
for 'em to lie around all day and do noth
ing but play cards and tell yarns. I'm
going to maket 'em work and save money
for the state."
Dmll Wahlstrom, who will be Rowden's
successor, has ben one of the Janitors In tha
city building for some eight or nine years.

ORS SHOW NOW ASSURED
Stockholder Recommend that Sub
scribers Make Up Deficit.
BOARD OF DIRECTORS RE-ELECTED
Artlie Raalnesa Mea fleace Their
Material Saapart ta Sacreas of
the tCtaoaltlaa far
Tala tear.
Stockholders of the National Corn exposi
tion voted to Increase the capitalisation of
the corporation from fcO.000 to 1100.000 at
their annual meeting Tuesday noon and
re-elected the old board of directors.
It waa the sense of the stockholders that
an assessment should be levied against
them sufficient to make up the tlO.OOt
treasury deficit, which Is not really a
deficit, but simply an additional assessment
to those already being made.
The actual condition of the finances of
he exposition look like this: The corpora
tlon haa a capital stock of toO.OOO and I40.O10
was subsorlbed to bo paid In on demand
This amount of 140.000 might have been
called and waa subject to call, being sub
scribed with the understanding that the
enterprise might require every dollar the
first year. But so economically was the
promotion work managed that only 40 per
cent of tho amount subscribed was called.
This brought tha exposition up to the open
ing day. The show waa a success. The
gate receipts were $25,000, the Income from
other sources $30,000 and the total expendi
tures $80,000. Thus the treasury needs $10,000
to bring It to a balance, or SJ.S per cent of
the amount subscribed. Conaldered on this
basis the exposition made or saved $16,000,
aa those who subscribed money for launch
ing the enterprise paid but five-eighths of
the amount they subscribed.
The old board of directors was re-elected,
the following business men composing the
board :

Committee and Officers.
From these directors an executive com
mltte and officers will be selected at a
meeting to be held early, as work will
begin at once on the National Corn expo
sition of VXJ9.
President O. W. Wattles opened the meet
ing by speaking of the success of the last
corn show and called on T. F. Bturgess to
read the report of the finances. It was
shown by this report that while $40,000
was subscribed to the M,000 capital stock
but $15,000 waa assessed. The admissions
and revenues of the exposition paid all but
$10,000 on a total expenditure of $80,000. The
cost of tho Auditorium and -temporary
buildings, with lighting and decorating waa
3,000, the largest Item on the entire list.
Other Items were small in comparison. Only
$2,000 was spent for publicity, while the
model kitchen, one of tho biggest attrac
tions at the ahow, cojt but a little more
than $1,000. Exhibits cost the exposition
heavily. The receipts at tho gate were
$26,000 and almost $10,000 was obtained from
concessions.
C. C. Rosewater, chairman of the execu
tlve committee, spoke of the necessities of
putting the exposition or rather keeping It
on a sound bualness baals and favored
stock subscriptions to donations. He said
the $2S.0C0 which Omaha paid for the ex
position of 1908 would not buy the advertls
ing which it made for the city If any city
started out to buy the high-class of adver
tising which the city received. Mr. Rose
water also read letters from prominent men
In all partsof the country who were asked
to make criticisms on the show and their
replies rang only with praise.
Those who spoke in favor of getting their
shoulders to the wheel for another year
or all the years that Omaha can keep the
exposition were G. W. Wattles, C. C. Bel
den, A. Hospe. W. F. Baxter and others.
BIG FUND FOR UNIVERSITY
Half Million Is the Initial A
nt
Which Promoters Will
Strive For.
Resolutions were sdopted last night at a
meeting of those Interested In the proposed
University of Omaha, declaring In favor of
raising $300,000, $2GO.0OO to be used for build
ings and" grounds and $300,000 for endow
ment. Dr. H. H. Maynard, financial sec
retary, explained the whole proposition
fully, and this resolution cemsas a result
of his explanation and a general discussion
in which all those present entered. About
twenty-five people, mostly residents of
Kountse Place, attended the meeting.
Dr. Maynard expects to leave In a few
days for the east In the hope of raising
$300,000 there, the other $300,000 to be raised
In Omaha. He waa careful to state that
thla first $500,000 will be but a starter, and
that before many years have elapsed It Is
hoped that from $6,000,000 to $$.000,000 will be
Invested In the university property snd en
dowment. The doctor will first go to John
D. Rockefeller's education committee, a
representative of which visited Bellevue a
year ago and tha same as told friends of
the Omaha university that hia committee
would glvs money to an Omaha institution.
Tha first payment, $(.000, haa been mads
on the tract of land decided upon by the
university trustees for the location of the
new educational lnatttutton. This tract
comprises ths Kountse snd Redlck estate
holdings from Twenty-first street to Twenty-fifth
street, lying between Plnkney snd
Pratt atreets.

Mr. Charlea Rann Kennedy has not said
the last word on the topic, nor has ho by
any means said much that has not been
dinged Into our ears for sges. It Is our
own fault that we haven't heeded the les
son, not the fault of the preachers. The
trouble Is, we are still a somewhat stiff
necked and stubborn generation, and fre
quently refuse to do what is obviously for
our own good, because It happens to be a
bit unpleasant In the contemplation. But
that doesn't alter the wholesomeness of his
sermon, or relieve us In any way from the
asslrabtllty of Immediately applying It.
"The Servant in the House," as hss been
explained In detail, present the proposition
that ths world' would be a nic nlacn tn Ilea
people would only live rightly. Unhap
pily, people won't, and so the clogging Of
the drains that has resultod produces an
untold deal of gas that Is very unhealthy to
breathe, but we go on breathing It be
cause aa yet no drainman of auftlcient
courage and address has appeared to tackle
the Job of clearing away the dreadful ac
cumulation of muck that swelters In the
crypt and poisons the atmosphere above.
Mr. Kennedy unmercifully pillories the
world-wise and exalts the simple, as Is
proper enough In sermons, and affords not
a little genuine satisfaction to those of us
who are sufficiently pharasalcal to apply
tne lesson to our neighbors. Hia plsy Is a
mixture of allegory and expoaitlon. and Is
powerfully dramatic In Its direct simplicity
Its one weakness lies In Its forced element
of mysticism; how much more potent Man
son s message would be If It were delivered
by a man, moving among men. rather than
by the strenuously Insistent presence of
suggested Deity! What a pity Mr. Ken
nedy could not have abandoned the merely
ineatric and preserved the dramatic unitv
of his otherwise masterful preachment! It
may by the present means reach some
minds It would not otherwise have awak
ened, but It lacks in virile force, none the
less. At a time when the church Itself Is
striving to relieve religion of Its rlnaklnv
of mysticism and seeking to approach man-
aina on a broad basis of reason. It seems
the dramatists might easily afford to make
their appeal more directly to the intellect
and less to the emotion.
as the "gentleman of necessarv occupa
tion," Clay Clement towers a commanding
figure over the action of the play. His
redemption Is the net result of applied
reason, and his eloquence as he tells of his
task In the last act Is such as makea one
forget that he Is speaking of muck snd
offal and charnel pits, and leaves only the
realisation that he Is talking of the accom
plishment of a deed that is needed for the
good of man-a heroic undertaking aa noble
as ever led k.iight to battle or advocate to
court. Mr. Clement has lnna- han lookeil
upon In this neck of the woods as an actor
of parts, and his friends are not disap
pointed by h's work as the drain man.
Mr. Creston Clarke rs impressive as the
low-voiced, sweet-faced Manson. and fully
realises the author's very manifest purpose.
He has prepared his person so aa to very
nearly resemble plcturesof the Christ, and
his gestures are those ascribed to the
Master by the men who have put on can
vass their Ideas' of nja personality. In this
regard Mr. Clarke's work is perfect. But
H does not remove the regret that the
author chose this medium for the expres
slon of his own great thought.
Mr. George Wilson Is presenting a most
excellent conception of the worldly-minded
bishop of Lancashire, ' who Is following
Mammon more assiduously than one in his
position Is expected to. His picture of the
doddering old prelate, whose falling sight
and hearing and passing strength only
accentuate the extraordinary activity of his
keen Intellect, snd make even more gro
tesque his greed for wealth, Is one of the
finest things of the kind seen here since
he gave us the wonderful Impressive pic
ture of Louis XI in "If I Were King." The
hope Is hereby expressed that Mr. Wilson
will be apared to afford us the pleasure of
his excellent art for many years to come.
Omaha friends of Mr. Wilfred Roger, who
was leading man at the Burwood last sea
son, will be pleased to know that he is
showing his worth as an actor most effec
lively In the role of the vicar. It is one
of the most difficult parts In the play, call
ing for the widest range cf emotional ex
pression, and Mr. Roger attacks It Intelli
gently and acquits himself with great
credit.
Miss Wynne Is a charming girl, and ap
parently Is only presenting her natural self
in ths role she has. , Comparlaons are
seldom Indulged in here, yet the Impulse
to contrast the meeting of the Muslo
Master snd his daughter and that of the
Drain Man and his dsughter cannot be
reaiated. Warfleld may have compelled
tiers, but hn did not arouse the deep and
genuine feeling that was stirred by the
playing of Mr. Clement and Miss Wynne
last night. "This was so genuine and so
utterly devoid of the theatric that It com
pelled one of the moat spontaneous and
enthusiastic recalls ever given in a theater.
Lissle Hudson Collier is all that coull
be asked In the wife of the vicar a woman
who ldollxes her husband and strives In
every way for his advancement, forgetting
but one thing that hla soul requires at
tention, too, and this may not be had
while alavlsh devotion to convention ob
tains. And, J'tnally, Mr. Dornton makea a "but
tons" eminently fitted for the service of
to well ordered a house as the home of
Rev. William Smythe. D. D.
The Boyd theater was well filled last
night by an audience that came prepared
to enjoy an Intellectual treat, and It waa in
ro way disappointed. The feast of reason
was thoroughly appreciated, and was most
appropriately applauded. It ia In no wise
vital to the continued success uf the drama,
perhaps, yet Mr. Miller may have whatever
comfort comes from the aasursnce that hia
players in Mr. Kennedy's play are warmly
approved by Omaha people who have so
far seen them; and, what is more to the
point, perhaps, the advance sale Indicates
that many more will see the play snd the
plcyers during the rest of the week. It
will be offered each evening until after

The revenue agnt's department has
stifled another infant industry, this time
over In Iowa, where an enterprising com
pounder t f beverages was on tho point of
doing a thrifty buHlnms In the manufacture
and sale of Imitation wine.
The stuff looked good and had the color
of fine old port, tho odor ot apple Jack and
the flavor of raspherrica and ttssafoetida.
It was called blackberry wine and the man

William Jennings Bryan
buys a ranch
GULF COAST COUNTRY
He has purchased 80 acres of irrigated land near Mis
sion, Hidalgo County, Texas, on which he will at.once
plant orange, fig, olive, pe,can, almond trees, etc., and
if they "do as well as he expects" he will build a home
and spend a portion of his winters there.
Mr. Bryan has long contemplated improving a place
in the South, and it is not surprising that his selection
should be made in the heart of the Gulf Coast Coun
try, whose climate is almost
so wonderfully productive
from 20 acres ot onions
Mr. Geo. Hoffman of
ot common occurrence.
Mr. Hoffman's experience was duplicated by many other
growers in the Gulf Coast Country. That was two or
three years ago. The change which has been wrought
in the Gulf Coast Country in the short time since
then is marvelous.
Prosperous towns and cities have sprung up irriga
tion has been systematized and extended methods -of
marketing; have been improved. Now large
areas of the Gulf Coast Country are dotted with
small farms, the owners of which are making for- - -
tunes every year.
On a small tract of land in the Gulf Coast Country
you should be able to make a good living and lay
away a, snug sum each year. Experience is not
necessary. It is simply 'making garden'' on a
larger scale. - .
Investigate this proposition while the land is within ,
your reach. Next year it will cost more. .
A trip of investigation will be inexpensive. Twice
each month you can buy round-trip tickets via the
Rock Island-Frisco-C. ft E. I. Lines to any point in the
Gulf Coast Country at the following very low fares
Chicago SSO.OO Kansas City S2I.00 St. Paul SSS.S0
St. Louis SS.OO Peoria SO.OO Minus poll SS.S . .
These tickets will be good 25 dsys, snd allow liberal stop-over privileges. .

Miss Carter's Letter !
I have been subject, to bronchial
trouble for years, and never found any
thing that gave me the almost instant
relief that Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy does. Every cough or cold I Would
contract seemed to affect the bronchial
tubes. The phlegm was very cKsa
greeable and troublesome, and befora
used Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
would hang on for months at a time.
Now a bottle or two of this remedy is
all that is required to rid me of this
unpleasant bronchial trouble. . I am
only too pleased to recommend it"
