HASTINGS, Neb.. Feb. .-8peclal Tele
gram.) Rev. Hiram B. Harrison, pastor of
the First Congregational r church of this
city, created a aenaatton of no small de
ar this morning:, when he announced
from the pulpit that It was his Intention
to have a roller skating rink established In
the basement of the proposed new church
edifice, which is to cost fc.000. Kev. Mr.
Harrison also announced that he had al
ready secured 4h. promises of five boys
who bad pledged themselves, to raise suffi
cient funds to paV far the additional cost
required for the prop-r kind of flooring; for
the rink.
At the conclusion of the services the sole
topic of conversation wef the roller skating
project ' tn oonnectlon with- the house of
Clod, and several prominent members of
the church were moat severe tn their denun
ciation of their pastor's proposed plana.
Soma of the member attempted to account
for It by the fact that the Methodist church
of this city has recently Installed a tele
phone In the pulpit and haa announced In
the newspapers that "If anyone knows of
sick or shut-In people who would enjoy
getting; the Methodist services by telephone
will confer favor by notifying; the pastor."
It la said that Rev. H. B. Harrison's pro
posed Innovation of a roller skating rink In
connection with the church was the out
growth of much atudy on his part, to hit
upon some unique plan to detract from the
novelty of getting churoh services over the
telephone..
Many of the prominent church members
have openly denounced . the suggestion of
tha roller skstlng rink In their church and
have said that they would fight Rev. Mr.
Harrison's plana to tha finish, and one man
even went an . far as to say that In his
Judgment be would Just as soon aee a bar
established in tha house of Ood as to have
tha church disgraced with a roller skating
rink.

Preparations far Inaageral.
Preparations along a greater seals for
the Inauguration of William Howard Taft
and James 8. Sherman, as president of the
United States and vice president, respec
tively, are being mads by the cltlsens of
the capital than upon any previous occa
sion within a generation. Everything Is
being done to show the prospective visitors
a royal good tlma and Waahlngtonlnns
are nightly offering prayers that the
weather will be propitious. All preliminary
work In matter of decorations and the
subsequent enjoyment of the efforts of the
local committee depends very materially
upon tha sort of weather that is In store
for us. Perhaps never before have ueh
elaborate preparations been made, es
pecially In the matter of street Illumination
and decorations generally by private indi
viduals occupying homea or busineas houses
along the route of the parade as Is being
made to celebrate the ' Inaugural of Taft
and Sherman.
Washington is waking up and preparing
to spend a considerable sum of money to
entertain Its prospective guests during the
Inaugural week. Historic Pennsylvania
avenue will be a blase of light from the
capitol to the White House on the night
ef March 4. The electrlo display will have
the famed "great white way" of New
York faded to a frazsle. Aside from the
general lighting schemes by electricity and
gas there will be a very general decoration
of all buildings, public and private, with
the national colors. The decorations, of
course, will be most pronounced along the
line of march of the parade. Also, hew-
ever, everywhere about tha city tha na
tional emblem, the- Stars and Strlpea, will
have ' a conspicuous place, and deserv
edly so.
Toach of Life la Deroratloas.
It has been the desire of the local com
mittee having the arrangement of the in
augural decorations in charge to give a
touch of Ufa to the decorations.
Looking back on what haa been done at
prior Inaugurals It was found that what
was done before in nearly every Instance
the decorations were too somber, with but
little of the character of a celebration
and of a Joyous beginning of a victory and
the beginning of an eventful new era.
A word picture of the court of honor,
so-called, by the local committee on ar
rangements, will briefly Illustrate a por
tion of the general plan of deciration and
Illumination. From Fifteenth street to
Seventeenth street, along Pennsylvania
avenue. Is about 1,S00 feet. Directly on
the axla of the Whits House and In Trout
of it Is the president's stand, accommo

were talked of day after day tn the excited
stock market. Foreign holders of the steel
Industrials were as much disturbed as the
owners at home and sent home heavy offer
ings to market. This copper stocks came
In for pressure almost as severe late in the
week, although they showed some stabil
ity at first on account of a supposition
that the successive reductions which have
been going on In the price of cepper might
have accomplished more gradually what
was being done spasmodically In the steel
trade. The demonstration thus afforded
of the futility of the great centralised con
trol in separate industries as a means to
obviate the former convulsive upheavals
in the process of adjustment In the
changed forces of demand and' supply
threw all the Industrials Into some dis
favor. Railroad Stocks Yield.
Ths railroad stocks were late In yielding
to the weakness and arguments were of
fered of benefits to accrue to them as con
sumers of steel materials from the cheaper
p ices f jr them. Other Influences ultimately
broke down the railroads, the most Impor
tant growing out of government prosecu
tions. The undisturbed ease of the money
market was Ineffectual to aave the stock
market from Its periods of demoralisation,
but was an Important factor In the com
parative Immunity enjoyed by the bond di
vision from weakness. The banks met
easily the very heavy demands upon them.
Including the withdrawal of the 30,000,000
government deposits recalled by tha Treas
ury department. A large part ef this pay
ment was effected by the Interior banks by
drafts on their New York correspondents.

BILL BY SENATOR BURKETT
Nebraskan Has Measure for Inspec
tion of Locomotive Boilers.
BUUNO ON RECLAMATION ACT
Deelsloa Defines Rights of FJatrraaea
to Assign or Transfer Their
Rights Beforo Patent
la Issned.
(From a 8taff Correspondent.)
WASHINGTON, D. C. Feb. 28. (Special
Telegram.) Senator Burkett will Intro
duce a bill tomorrow which has the en
dorsement of the secretary of commerce
and labor, president of the Boiler Makers'
association and representatives of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers of
the United States. It is Intended to give
a double protection to the public against
the danger of boiler explosions while
traveling by rail. In reply to a resolu
tion of the senator from Nebraska, tha
Department of Commerce and Labor fur
nlnhed detailed statistics regarding deatha
that had resulted from locomotive boiler
explosions which gives the basis for the
Burkett bill.
These statistics show that there were
13S deatha in 1904. 129 in 1905, 127 In 190,
1S In 1907 and 1(2 in 1908. making 71
deatha from locomotive boiler explosions
In the laat five years.
The bill Is to become operative after
January 1, 1910, and provides, among other
things, that it shall be unlawful for any
common carrier by railroad to use any lo
comotive propelled by steam power In
moving interstate or foreign commerce
which is .pot equipped with steam pressure
gauge, safety valve, gauge cocka or try
cooks and water glass showing depth of
water in the boiler and having shut-off
cock or shut-off valve at each end of the
glass which can be manipulated by hand.
All boilers must further stand hydrostatic
test tn ths ratio of 1E0 pounds to the
square Inch of working steam allowed,
and that boilers muat be of good mate
rial; further, that all pipes, tubes, flues,
etc.. are so made and constructed that
they can be safely employed In traffic
without peril to travelers.
Violations of the provision of the act
on the part of common carriers shall sub
ject the offender to a penalty of 11,000
for every violation, to be recovered In
clvtl suit brought by the United States
district attorney In the district having
Jurisdiction In the locality where such
violation shall have been committed, and
It shall be the duty of the district attor
ney to bring suit upon verified Informa
tion being lodged.
Rating on Reclamation Act.
The secretary of the interior has Just
Issued instructions to the general land
office which remove a difficulty that has
been met In connection with entries under
the reclamation act. In a circular of the
goneral land office, Issued January 18,
1008, provision is made that after the re
quirements of the homestead law as to
residence and cultivation have been com
plied with, the entryman or his heirs may
make final proof of compliance with those
requirements, after which he will be re
lieved of the necessity of residing upon
the land.
The question arose whether after having
made such proof the entryman could as
sign his Interest In the land without for
feiting hid right to a patent.
It has now been decided that the patent
will Issue In the name of the original
entryman in the ususl manner, after such
final proof has been made, snd upon proof
thst at least one-half of the Irrigable area
of the entry as finally adjusted haa been
reclaimed, and upon payment to the proper
officials of the government of tho charges,
fee and commissions which are duo.
The communication contains the direct
statement that so far as the department
is conoerned no legal objection will be
raised to the assignment of the right of
an entryman who haa Just made five-year
final proof, and that stoh assignment
would seem to convey all the entryman'e
Interest In the land. Including the right
of the assignee to a complete title by
carrying out the additional requirements
Imposed by tha reclamation law.
This order of the . secretary puts the
reclamation homstaad entries upon tha same
basis as original homeated entries In re
gard to assignments after final proof, and
will thus remove one great difficulty that
haa been felt In some of the projects.

Fight Over Carnegie Fond.
The real big fight of the session Is
scheduled for this week. It will be over
the bill which permits teachers of the
state university to participate in the Car
negie pension fund. As Is generally
known, the teacher to be qualified to be
come a beneficiary of this fund must
have taught twenty-five years or fifteen
years and have reached the age of 65
years. In fact, he will have retired from
active work when he gets the pension.
Mr. Bryan not only talked before the
legislature against this bill, but he also
talked before the standing committee of
the house In opposition to it. The bill
passed the senate with only eight votes
against it.
Mr. Bryan's objection to the bill, as told
to the committee, was this:
"If this bill becomes a law I never again
expect to hear the Steel trust denounced
by a teacher In the state university to his
classes."
A number who heard that awful predic
tion were reminded of the fact that on
one occasion the Peerless Leader said
there would be no more Fourth of July
In this country if McKlnley was elected.
Mr. Bryan also lost caste among demo
crats when he was reminded before the
committee that he had helped to secure an
appropriation from Mr. Carnegie to build
the Lincoln Public Library. Mr. Bryan ex
plained at great length that the Carnegie
who gave the library waa an Iron master
then and it was almost a year later that
he became a "trust magnate." As mem
bers of the committee applauded they cer
tainly believed what Prof. Howard ssld
when he remarked, "That looks like split
ting hairs."
The house members held a caucua over
tho bill, but no vote was tsken and it
cannot be foretold whether the bill will
pass the house.
The house has recommended .the Groves
anti-treat bill for passage and during the
week the county option bill -should rcuch
the committee of the whole. Mrs. Heald,
head of the temperance workers, has
opened her headquarters Just outside the
railing which separates the members from
the public and tackles every person who
passes to sign up for temperance legisla
tion. But notwithstanding this vigorous
campaign in violation of the law It Is not
believed the county option measure will
pass both branches of the legislature
though the vote will be very close in the
house.

TOKIO, Feb. 28 During the recent dis
cussion in Japan of the attitude of cer

the difficulties faced by the Japanese
newspapers of the best standing was thst
their correspondents at the various -points
lacked an appreciation of conditions In

the feelings of the people, or the standing
of those who espoused particular action.
As a result, only the more sensational

In America, as a rule, reached the news
papers In "Japan, the result being that
from the outset there wss almost an en
tire misunderstanding as to the real situ
ation. As soon as the position of the
leading people of California and of the
United States developed through the more
reliable press dispatches, a better feeling
began to prevail and now this controversy

RIOTS AT LISBON CARNIVAL
y
Penalaee Carry Coffins sad Skeletons
Reareeeattasf Late King; aa
Crown Prince.
LISBON, Feb. 28. (Via the Frontier.)
The carnival celebrations held in Lisbon
this week resulted in serious rioting and
a number of encounters with the police
during which numerous people were more
or less injured and about 200 arrests were
made.
The precautions taken by the authorities
were successful In preventing any demon
strations early in the month on the first
anniversary of the assassinations of King
Carlos and the crown prince, but the
population took advantage of the carnival
time to Indulge in the manifestations, they
wanted to hold three weeks ago. The
assassinations of February 1, 1908, were
repeatedly enacted at various points
throughout Lisbon by persons made up
to represent the late King Carlos and
the crown prince. Queen Amelle, Prince
Manuel and the regicides, Costa and
Bulasa, as they were attired on ths day
of the tragedy, while other groups carry
ing coffins containing skeletons to repre
sent King Carlos and the crown prince,
gave repreeentatlons of the funeral pro
cession to an accompaniment of blas
phemous songs.
The police were completely taken by
surprise and when they attempted to atop
the scandalous proceedings the lower
classes sided with the masqueraders and
received them with volleys of stones.
Women aided the rioters by throwing
missiles from windows. The police finally
had to make free use of their revolvers
and swords. They charged right and left
and a panic followed. The situation waa
such that the police could not control It
and troops had to be summoned. The
streets finally were cleared by the mili
tary, who made arrests wholesale.
BE CAREFUL OF MILK
Satisfy Yourself that It Is Free of
Germs and Imparities Which
Will t adrrmla Health.
Is the milk that you use alive with germs?
Is It reeking with Impurities?
If so, how do you know that It is?
If not, how can you prove that It Is not?
There Is nothing, ss a rule, of which the
publlo is so Ignorant and so easily deceived
In as milk.
It Is all white and every dealer Is ready
to guarantee Its purity.
In some Instances this has proven to be
a sort of safeguard, still the consumer
throughout the country has been able every
year to trace some of the usual sickness
to the milk that the family uses.
The crusade upon those who deal In Im
pure milk haa prompted the government
to establish a pure food law and to make
certain recommendations tornllk dealers
which will materially improve the condition
If they are adopted.
In certain sections these recommendations
have become laws which are stringently
enforced.
For instance, the government says that
Pasteurising milk Is desirable, because It
will promote health.
Nathan Straus, who has made an ex
haustive study of the subject and who has
Just returned from Europe, where he went
to aid In establishing Pasteurising plants
In Kurope, says that Pasteurising Is neces
sary. He waa speaking of state supervision,
or Inspection, which he said was a step
In the right direction.
New York has adopted Pasteurisation.
Chicago has adopted Pasteurisation.
Milwaukee has adopted Pasteurisation.
The state of Iowa compels the Pasteur
isation of milk which Is to be returned to
the barn for animals.
Dr. Conned, our health commissioner.
recommends Pasteurization and also urges
the bottling of all milk.
The Alamlto Sanitary Dairy company
haa adopted the government's recommenda
tion and Pasteurises all of Its product. It
Is Impossible for any of the milk handled
by this company to be Impure.
Pasteurization is a process of heating
milk to 160 degrees and Immediately cooling
It to 45 degrees. By this process every
possible germ is killed and the product Is
sweet and pure.
The Alamlto Is extremely careful of the
milk that It recelvea before Pasteurizing.
It haa satisfied Itself that the milk Is from
absolutely healthy cows and that It Is
transported from the farms In absolutely
clean vessels and that those who handle
It are absolutely free of disease. Not only
that. It delivers Its product In glass and
customers are able to determine the per
centage of butter fat by the cream line.
The city of Omaha compels dairymen to
market no milk containing less than 8 per
cent of butter fat. The Alamlto dairy's
contracts require from 3Vh to 4 per cent
butter fat.
In speaking of the matter yesterday Mr.
Smith of the firm said: "We believe that
all milk retailed In the city should be
bottled, for several reasons. Milk Is a very
deceptive looking fluid and very few house
keepers have the means of knowing how
rich or how poor the milk ia they are
buying. Bottle It for them and they can
tell clearly the cream line. Bottling might
Increase, the cost of milk, but a better
article would have to be sold. Chicago
has a bottle ordinance similar to the above.
on account of which Its health commissioner
has been able to report a reduction from
about 20 per cent to 8 or 4 per cent of sam
ples found below standard.
"We believe the public Is entitled tp good
milk and giving the housekeepers some
means of knowing whether milk bought by
them Is good or not without having to
send It to some laboratory to have It
tested.
"We believe that the larger companies are
setting the pace on this milk proposition
snd are willing to have the strictest kind
of ordinance enacted and enforced and
are willing to obey the law In every par
ticular. They have too much at stake to
do differently."
Mr. Smith said that Dr. Connell favored
bottling all mink and recommended It. In
Chicago since the adoption of the law the
health of the city has been improved more
thsn 26 per cent.
At the Alamlto each can of milk is tested
to see that it comes up to the requirements
of richness, purity and flavor If It doea not
It Is returned to the farmer. If a can of
milk passes the test it Is poured through
a atrainer Into a conductor and carried to
the receiving vat, where It- Is thoroughly
stirred to Insure a uniform grade for all
milk. These vats hold 600 gallons, and
when one housewife thinks her neighbor
Is getting richer milk than she does, she
Is mistaken, for It all comes from the
same vat.
From this vat the milk Is forced through
a filter in order that any Impurities may
be taken out. This Is done aa an extra pre
caution, for the Alamlto requires clean milk
from the farmers who supply the milk.
After passing through the filter the milk
Is Pasteurized. Many think that the Pas
teurisation process consists of putting in
some foreign substance, but that Is not
the case, as It is simply heating the milk
to kill any possible germs or bacteria.
