't was unanimously voted a matter nf
"egret at tlie Crcrhe ball Tuestrlay night that
iiuch an opportunity had boon missed an
nually" for fifteen years or so. for thla Is
the first charity ball In all that time.
This regret was the only ono of the even
ing" and was far from r'Knant, because
morn charity balls for the Creche will be
held In years to como and anticipation of
future pleasures, easily outweighed sorrow
at past opportunities unseized.
The ball held last evening at Chambers'
was the most brilliant society occasion in
many months. Incidentally it was a
financial , success ajid will net probably
JS00 for iho Creche. Receipts by the mid
dle of the evening totaled f37, with defi,
nlte assurance of a large number of checks
In the mail. There Is a fair prospect that
when the books are bulancert today the
total Income will be $1,000. Expenses to
tettle are less than $3o.

towns, many of them bewllderlngly lovely,
were accompanied for the major part by
roung men, although the floor was far
Jrom devoid of elderly and middle-aged
nen, and the gleam of army evening ap
aret was also visible.
Fourteen waltzes and two-steps were
regularly scheduled on the program, and
two extras, which, to the surprise of no
one, turned out to be barn dances. A few
more of these were thrown In for good
measure ' before ' the evening ended. The
ball was an eminently happy affair, the
finer "being Just smooth enough, the music
as rhythmically precise as the ticking -of
a metronome and one's partner a graceful
dancer If skillfully , chosen.
Decorations Are Taatr.
The" ball room had been decorated with
taste. Garlands of fern alternated witli
others Of rose leaves around the balcony
line, while sprays of apple blossoms were
'nserted with a studied negligee which pre
vented the whole scheme becoming too for
mal, The central electrolier was trans
'ormoi Int j a bower of c' erry blossoms, and
smaller light-bearing standards were sim
ilarly garnished. In the supper room down
stairs a vernal effect was deftly produced
by a profuse employment of greenery and
green-shaded candles. At the main en
trance of the ball room there was a row
of green bay trees the kind proverbially
"flourishing." More apple blossoms were
used In wreathing the piyars which run
around the hall under the balconies, and
the desired suggestion of springtime was
really creditably achieved.
For the success of the ball in every way
Mrs. W. A. Paxton, Jr., Mrs. Joseph
Cudahy and Mrs. Charles Kountze, who
conHtltuted the committee on arrange

BLOWING NOSE EXPENSIVE
Carl Msrkonlti Pnt to -04 Expense
Through Friend's Taking; a
Hand In tianie.
It cost Carl Markowitz Just $:'fi to blow
his nose last evening. Another inadvert
ence slightly related to the same sad case
was the fall John Sollc, another Austrian,
took over a pllo of iron.
Markowitz and Mclla Rothgad Mella Is
a man, by the way were taking a stroll
on Fourteenth street when the former
reached Into a coat pocket for a handker
chief. - He pulled It forth and his pocket
book came forth also. Rottgad grabbed the
purse and ran. When last seen he was
still running, and may be yet.
Detectives Murphy and Ring started out
to look for the fugitive, and went to a
saloon near tho bridge where Austrian
birds of a feather do congregate. The en
trance of the detectives seemed to disturb
the equanimity of John Sollc and he put
for the door, slipping a murderous dirk
out of his pocket as he fled. He stumbled
over the Iron and was promptly captured.
Sollc is not accused of having been mixed
up In the robbery of Markowitz, but Is
known to be a friend of Rothgad. The
weapon he had Is one of those in which
the blade springs out when a spring Is
pressed, and he had prepared It for busi
ness In the Interval between leaving the
saloon and taking his tumble.
Sollc was fined 11 and costs In police
court Wednesday and tho judge instructed
the officers to keep his dirk and a pair of
brass knuckles he also carried. Rothgad,
the man who took the money, has not yet
been arrested.
CHANCE TOO MANY TO WORK
Suggestion of Rock Pile Harries Exit
of Complainant from
Station.
A piano player in a resort came within an
ace of talking himself into the lockup last
evening. He entered the police station and
abruptly demanded: "Is a man allowed to
work In this town?"
Inquiry developed that his wife objected
to his earning a living in a disreputable
resort and the Inference was plain that he
wished In some vague way the police de
partment .to solve his domestic 'problem
and restrain his wife from Interfering with
him.
He met with little sympathy and after a
few minutes Captain Dunn was moved to
Inquire: "How's the rock, pile gang; for the
morning?"
"Just one short." was the reply.
"I guess I'll be going," said the piano
player, suiting the action to the word.

PROBLEM FOR SCIENTIST
Taik to Construct a Creed on Which
All Men Can Unite.
KEYNOTE OF HYSLOP LECTURE
Oatllnes Alms and Needs of the Aaaer
Iran laatWate of Scientific
Research Before Worn
an's t'lab. '
"Science must reconstruct a creed by
which all men will unite their beliefs and
In which all the best elements of Chris
tianity will prevail," was the keynote of
the lecture delivered by Prof. James
Hyslop, secretary of the American Institute
for Scientific Research, at the First Con
gregational church Tuesday evening under
the auspices pf the philosophy and ethics
department of the Omaha Woman's club.
Prof. Hyslop began his address with a
short statement of the alms and objects of
the Institute which he represents and the
methods of Its work. The present need of
the institute was an endowment fund that
its work may be extended. His present
visit to the west was to endeavor to Influ
ence the public toward the needs of the
Institute. Thore was an , imperative need
for about f76,O0O. The department of psychic
research was but a part of the larger plan
of scientific research and to enable special
localities to make special scientific investi
gations was another needs for this endow
ment fund. The functions of the Institute
were divided into three parts: (a) for re
search Into abnormal pathology, mental
diseases, which has not yet been organised;
(b) physical research, now organised, and
(c) heredity, prenatal Influences and all
facts related to the human race. Section D
had not yet been organized.
Simply Search for Facts.
"The college is not as well qualified for
this wcrk as would be an Independent In
stitution," said Prof. Hyslop. "The Insti
tute will not be equipped with any faculty
or lecturers, but will be devoted wholly to
the ascertainment of facts, freed from any
propaganda or any creed. Our plan Is to
collect facts and leave them for scientific
deduction afterwards without Invoking any
prejudice.'!
He went Into 'an extended analysis of the
early stages of the Greek and Roman be
liefs, all of which had a greater or less
tendency toward monotheism, theism and
deism, but all of which .was completely
revolutionized ' by the Introduction of
Christianity. He s.howed that for centuries
the philosophical' world had accepted the
doctrines and teachings of Ptolmey regard
ing the movements of the earth and plan
ets, because there were none to controvert
them. As Copernicus and Galileo showed
the fallacy of the Ptolmalc theory so did
Christianity show the fallacy of existing
religious beliefs. '
"The belief In the immortality of the
soul has had a tremendous influence upon
the civilization of the world. It was the
establishment of the Individual, and It was
Christianity that gave to the Individual
his distinct part in the world rather than
as a part of the whole. We adjust our
conduct to our beliefs whether they be of
a physical, business or religious character.
Materialistic Beliefs.
"After the Protestant reformation there
arose two fundamental beliefs, one being
the Indestructibility of matter and the
other the permanence of motion. These
were the essentials of materialism and
seemed to directly controvert all that
Christianity haa"Vrought. This was more
particularly the' fundamental rrinciple of
skepticism. Ifr 'was based on the1 doctrine
that matter was eternal and spirit but the
function." .'.).;.
Professor Hyslop than proceeded to show
the relation of psychology to physiology
and the property of physical phenomena.
"The great question," he concluded, was
"can we Isolate an individual soul and can
consciousness ba separated from organ
Ism? We are too prone to cast aside
psychlo phenomena as sporadic and not
worthy of Investigation. All knowledge is
derived from sense of perception. Science
Is our present day authority. Aristocracy
and philosophy have gone. There will
ultimately come an uniformity of beliefs,
and In the words of one of the moat emi
nent scientists of France: 'Science must
reconstruct a creed by which all men will
unite their beliefs, and In which all the
best elements of Christianity will pre

it to learn as to the relative standing: and reliability of the leading manufactur
ers of medicinal agents, as the most eminent physicians are the most careful as to
the uniform quality and perfect purity of remedies prescribed by them, and it is well
known to physicians and the Well-Informed generally that the California Fig; Syrup
Co., by reason of its correct methods and perfect equipment and the ethical character of
its product has attained to the high standing; in scientific and commercial circles which
is accorded to successful and reliable houses only, and, therefore, that the name of the
Company has become a guarantee of the excellence of its remedy.
TRUTH AND QUALITY 1
appeal to the Well-Informed in every walk of life and are essential to permanent sue
cess and creditable standing;, therefore we wish to call the attention of all who would
enjoy good health, with its blessings, to the fact that it involves the question of right
living with all the term implies. With proper knowledge of what is best each hour
of recreation, of enjoyment, of contemplation and of effort may be made to contribute
to that end and the use of medicines dispensed with generally to great advantage, but
as in many instances a simple, wholesome remedy may be invaluable if taken at the,
proper time, the California Fig Syrup Co. feels that it is alike important to present
irutniuny tne suoject ana to supply tne one perlect laxative remedy which has won
theappoval of physicians and the world-wide acceptance of the Well-Informed because
of the excellence of the combination, known to all, and the original method of manufac
ture, which is known to the California Fig Syrup Co. only.
This valuable remedy has been long and favorably known under the name of
Syrup of Figs and has attained to world-wide acceptance as the most excellent of
family laxatives, and as its pure laxative principles, obtained from Senna, are well
known to physicians and the Well-Informed of the world to be the best of natural
laxatives, we have adopted the more elaborate name of Syrup of Figs and Elixir of
Senna as more fully descriptive of the remedy, but doubtless it will always be
called for by the shorter name of Syrup of Figs and to get its beneficial effects always
note, when purchasing, the full name of the Company California Fig, Syrup Co.
plainly printed on the front of every package, whether you simply call for Syrup of
Figs or by the full name Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna as Syrup of Figs and
Elixir of Senna is the one laxative remedy manufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. and the same heretofore known by the name Syrup of Figs which, has given
satisfaction to millions. The genuine is for sale by all leading druggists throughout
the United States in original packages of one size only, the regular price, of which
is fifty cents per bottle.
Every bottle is sold under the general guarantee of the Company, filed with the
Secretary of Agriculture, at Washington, D. C, that the remedy is not adulterated or
misbranded within the meaning of the Food and Drugs Act, June 30th, 1906.

. (From a Staff Correspondent)
DES MOINES. Ia.. Feb. 3.-(Speclsl.)-Although
the Iowa legislature is over
whelmingly republican, each house has
now decided a contest case In favor of the
democratic Incumbent The senats today
decided the Mahaska county contest, in
which A. F. N. Hambleton, republican,
claimed to have been elected over John T.
Ream, democrat, who now holds the seat.
The Issue raised was as to the counting
of a certain large number of ballots which
were cast by republicans, but which were
not counted at all because the voters had
undertaken to mark them so as to Indicate
a vote for president and vica president. In
a large number of cases the voters In that
county had placed a mark in front of the
names of Taft and Sherman, which names
wrere in fact Improperly on the ballots, and
these were, held to be marks such as are
distinctly forbidden by the statute. The
committee, which consisted of Senators
Mattes, Peterson, Van I-w, DeWolf and
Frudden three republicans snd two demo
cratsreported unanimously in favor of
not counting; tho Improperly marked bal
lots, and the senate unanimously upheld
this view, thus leaving the democratic
senator In his seat. The decision was in
Una with that of a house committee in a
similar case and followed the rule laid
down by the supreme court.
Enlarge) Office of Attorney General.
Senator Cosson Introduced a bill to en
large tho duties and responsibilities of the
attorney general and to give him greate
power to enforce tho laws of the state and
to sea to it that crime does not go unpun
ished In any part of the state. It revises
and rewrites the law as to this office in
conformity with the two bills Just passed
adding to the duties of county attorneys
snd sheriffs; but In addition the bill pro
vides for the employment of one who
might be called a state sheriff, subject to
the orders of the attorney general and who
may be sent into any county of the state
to specifically look after the punishment
of persons guilty of Infraction of the laws.
Repafcllran Bank Guaranty Bill.
Representative Darrah of Lucas county,
today introduced into the house a bill to
provide for bank guaranty In Iowa. Dar
rah la a republican and there are quite a
number of republicans who believe such a
measure should be adopted. The bill cre
ates a banking department or commission
of three on salary to have charge of this
work and to collect from banks, undsr
abundant ssfeguards, a tax of t per cent
on average dally balances for a fund out
of which to pay losses when a bank falls.
Senator Bruce Introduced a hill to forbid
disturbances of any kind In railroad sta
tions and to punish offenders, and also
to give conductors of trains a right to
make arrests for disturbing the peace on
their trains or right of way.
Little Baslness Dene.
The senate passed a bill to require
county auditors to foot up assessment rolls,
but considered and put over a bill with
regard to distribution of codes.
The house spent the forenoon in "horse
play" on minor matters. A resolution
with regard to smoking was laid on the
table and one to name a committee to
drsft drainage laws wss passed.
The senate heard a communication from
the Iowa Society in Seattle, asking that
Iowa be represented at the Seattle exposi
tion. New bills:
Van Law, to increase tax levy for fire
purposes to S mills.
Balkema, to restore circle to ballot.
Seeley, to provide for visiting stste Insti

Fight on Insnranee Department.
Senators Interested in the bill to create
a state Insurance department have secured
some statistics to offset the claim of the
insurance Interests and will use them In
the coming fight over this Issue.
With regard to the alleged decrease of
Insurance business It is found by Investiga
tion of the records that the contrary Is
true. The fire and casualty risks in force
In Iowa In 1903 were $490,625,000 and In 1907
$711,979,000, an Increase of $221,384,000. The
life policies In force In 1993 were $083,751,000
and five years later $674,716,000. The securi
ties on dep. -sit as backing for policies
amounted In 190$ to $10,700,000, but when
Auditor Carroll turned them over to Audi
tor BleaJtley they amounted to $$3,880,000,
which fairly shows how business Is growing
