Conversation on a North Twenty-fourth
tret car:
"Weil, how do you like the way us
nVrriccrnt broke In over at the court
home?"
"My Messing to them, ince they'r clever
crtigh to do It," replied th interrogated
one. evidently a republican.
"Ycu'll notice that the Elsasaer, Butler
snd Flynn families ara about all taken
care of now," said the first speaker.
"There' Pete Elaaaaer In th council, and
Fred Elsasaer in charge of th county poor
farm.. There' Dan Butler In tha city
clerk' office and Joe Butler drawing a
city salary a ml acting as principal advo
cate of the Dahlman administration.
There'a Tom Flynn. apendlng a few thousand-
In a way to do th moat good for
his perl y a street commissioner, and
there' hi brother, L. J., Just mad night
watchman at the court house, where a
man can have a qu-t comfortable night'
rest and not miss a mal the next day.
Why, It' fine, and Fred Elaaaaer particu
larly oug:it to feel thankful."
"Why he more than the others? Ha
doetn't get In for quite a while yet."
"True, but when he does get in the
provision bin will know It. Fred ha a
Roosevelt family, a baker' dosen or more,
I'm told. At the poor farm th bos of th
Job haa full and plenty of everything and
none of It 1 poor, either. With a family
of twelve or fourteen living on county
pub of good quality and th father and
mother drawing nice salaries, what better
cc-ild any man ask?"
"Do the superintendent and his family
live off the county?"
"Do they? They do, and they have from
the day the place waa opened. And If you
expect that Uruning, Bedford and Pickard
will let Fred Elsasaer get any the worst
of It. or any other democrat, for that mat
ter, you have another guesa coming. Fam
ily expenses being very high now, tha
charitable trinity on the county board ap
parently wanted to fjnd a family that
really needed such a grand chance to live
at county expenae."

The Thirteen club, be It known of all

but when they have a mind to entertain

Everything waa lovely, however, and
Dahlman told them all bow it happened
and there was a general love feaat. The
meeting closed with a pledge from all pres

"Fred Bruning told me. even up to Sat
urday morning that I was saf In my
place," says Sam HoTf. In regard to his
being ousted from his position aa ruatodlan
of th Douglaa county court house. "I do
not blame Pickard and Bedford, for they
re democrats, but Bruning pretended to
be a republican and secured th vote of
republican In the election aa such.
"He kept telling me up to the laat that
I waa all right and hia action consequently
csme as a surprise. There were two men
who had come to me and said that it a
change a era possible they would seek my
place and I told them what waa my honest
conviction, that there would be no such
chance. Possibly they could not have been
elected anyhow, but Bruning'a action gav
them no chance.
"I ahould not mind giving up the place
to the right kind of man, but not to a fel
low like Stryker. He waa a candidate for
the superintendence of the county hospital,
but they were afraid trt put him there or
even in the county at ore. As custodian of
th court honse he wilt hava leaa oppor
tunity to get away with anything and they
felt safer."
Hoff points with pride to the record he
haa made In hi position.
"There la not a man in the building who
will not say that I hav done my work
well," Mid he, "and that ia one reason
why it Jara to hav a man like Stryker
put In. It's a good thing for tbe county
they did not elect him to the hospital Job."
Tbe county commissioner held a meet
ing Monday morning, which waa peaceful
and lamblike compared to the session of
Saturday, when Bmnlng's gag-and-gavel
rule waa the dominant note. Approval of
the payroll waa the principal business.
The resignation of E. P. O'Connor a a

A glance at the record kept at th Union
Stock Yard company' office shows that
the receipts of rattle have fallen off 11.107
head, aa compared with 19U8. Hoes also
ahow a decline. In the light of the condi
tions prevailing, the South Omaha stock
men are ahowrhg no alarm. It ia noticeable
that every market In the country ahowa a
decline about proportionate to these two
classes of live stock. Omaha haa fared bet
ter In some respects thsn the other river
points. The disadvantage would be much
less bad it not been for the severe storm
early in the week. Thla cut the recelpta
on the principal msrket day. Wednesdsy,
to seventy-five liesd of hogs. The storm
also influenced the rest of the week. It
was remarked by dozens of the old busi
ness men of the yarda that rtvr aince the
market opened had a day been known with
so few animals received. T'.iia Kiatement
includes 8undaya, uoltdaya and every other
day in the history of the yards. It ahow
Dot only the eeverity of the memorable
storm, trrt also the csutlon of th rail
roada in refusing to receive animala In the
face of such a billiard. Thla record has
the effect of looking bad on paper, but, be
ing a mere accident of condition, will be
made up in a few good market day.
- No large shipment is expected at th
yard today, as the storm ot Saturday and
Bunday waa ao severe that few shippers
will have ventured t fsce it. The roads
have discouraged shipment snd trslns will
da exceedingly well to mske anywber
near the schedule.

Mra. Mary Metier la Koaad by Police
Helpless aad Ilaaary la aa
Old shark.
Bedridden and helpless from age and the
pangs of rheumatism, and surrounded by
accumulations of fillh, Willi only four dog
as companions. Mrs. Mary Metier was
found in a dilapidated cottage near Fifth
snd Spring Krecls Sunday morning by
Health Officer W'ooidridge. He had hoe a
sent oul on the rase by 'uptain Mostyn ot
the police force, who waa told of the desti
tute circumstance by neighbor ot th old
w oinan.
Too proud to go fo the county hospital,
Mrs. Milzer is yet In direst need of char
ity. She told the officer that , ah would
only be Ukeu to aome regular, hospital,
mentioning St. Joseph's as her preference,
aa she Is near there and supposedly of the
Catholic faith. No relatives of hare are
known to her neighbora or til? police, who
will attend to the case.
Four dogs sleeping on the same bed wlt"li
the woman were found by Officer Woold
ridge when he entered th little ehack
Sunday. She told him frankly that they
were a nuisance snd menace to her health,
et she had been unable io part with them,
her only friends.
Propoauig that thy he shot at Alice, th
officer waa met with linn orders that if the
bloody deed was to be done It should take
place right In Mrs. Metxer's presence, "so
site could see for sure that they were dead."
However, Officer Wooldruige. with an eye
for health, finally coaxed the canine out
doors and dispatched three of them with hi
revolver. The otner oue ot the tour ea
caped. This is only one of the numerous caaea
of destitution, airknraa and lack of sanita
tion that the police have to care for. Sun
day, the same day on which Mra, Metser
condition was discovered, several men were
probably saved from f reeimg to death, or
at least from cold and hunger, by being
taken to Jail and housed there.
, Every u oman covets a shape
ly figure, and many of them
aepiore the loss of their irj-
ish forms after marriage.
