High Thought

Varsitydon Taket Auditors Over
Many a Mental Hurdle at
Lecture.
Himself when young did eagerly fre
quent doctor and sage and in much hectic
dialectic Indulged. Wishing to Involve
others In those snarls and snares of ab
stract metaphslcs In which he finds him
self entangled for life, he came here from
the University of Nebraska at Lincoln
to expound them to a class.
More simply expressed. Dr. E. L. Hlnman.
of the University of Nebraska last evening
delivered one of a series of lectures which
will be Klven every Monday night In the
lecture room of the Omaha Public library.
Tho class Is a private one to the extent
that a nominal fee Is asked of those who
come for more than one lecture. Univer
sity credit can be gained by those who
do a little outside reading as well, for
these lectures are not "extension" lextures,
but "In presence," as higher 'varsity slang
has It
The subject of last night's discourse was
Sensationalism and Rationalism," and Dr.
Hlnman took his auditors over many high
hurdles. He Jumped them over such ob
stacles to mental clarity and peace of
mind as knowledge and being, Idealism of
the Platonlo variety,. Innate Ideas, sense
perception, apriorl conditions of mind, mon
istic and pluralistic systems of meta
physics, to say nothing of such cognitive
or eplstemologlcal considerations as were
organically correlated with the ontologtcal
considerations and principles set forth.
Ah me! '
While dealing with the hardest subject
In the world to expound clearly. Dr. Hln
man has evidently sat long enough at the
feet. In a metaphorical sense at least, of
Profs. Joslah Royce and William James
clearest of modern expositors of these
themes to learn how himself to make dif
ficult subjects clear to an audience, and
his class will be a highly successful one
from the tectorial Ideal of Imparting In

CARMAN'S LITTLE REPARTEE
BRINGS SUIT0N COMPANY
Louise Schaaart Innocent Victim of
How Between Motorman and
Three Men In Bnggry.
She was riding In a street car and was
much Interested in the wrangle between
the motorman and three men in a buggy
who drove along even with the front of the
car and exchanged cunningly contrived vi
tuperation. '
Blit all on a sudden one of the men flung
a rock at the motorman and as a fllnger
he could not qualify for the hurling hill
of a championship ball team. Instead, the
rock flew Into the main part of the car
and Impinged on her eye.
What the thrower lacked In direction he
made up In force.
Consequently Louise Schuhart Is suing
the Omaha & Council Bluffs Street Rail
way company for $5,000 damages. Her pe
tition, filed In district court, avers that the
motorman kept his car slowed down for a
long time in order to exchange pleasan
tries with the three men In the buggy and
thereby negligently contributed to the accident.
Poles Likely to Re Removed from tha
Sidewalk on Roath Twentr-Fonrtn
Street and Wire. Fat fader
Ground.
Consideration of city finance took the
place of the street car ordinances In the
council committee of the wnole Monday
afternoon. The lower fare ordinances went
over for another week against the protest
of Councllmen Kugel, Bridges and Schroe
der. "We are permitted by the legislature to
have only so much money," said Chair
man Funkhouser, "and If we begin to
break over for ' one department, pretty
soon we will have to do the same thing
for all."
Councilman Brucker took the same
stand, saying to Health Commissioner
Connell: "We don't think w are made of
money, do you, that we can put our hands
down In our pockets and give you all you
wantT"
The health commissioner said that per
sonally It was a matter of lndlfferrence
to him whether he kept his present foroe
or let most of them go. "I do think, how
ever, that the council can declare an
emergency, and provide the funds neces
sary to run my department for the re
maining two months of the year as now
made up. I need more Inspectors instead
of laying off any."
The finance committee will try to find
a way out, which means digging up $2,000
for the health commissioner's office; and
In the meantime the men will remain at
work Inspecting meat, milk and back
alleys. " '
Poles and Wires Come Down.
After a talk by Attorney John Q. Kuhn,
representing the Southwest Improvement
club, Councllmen Bridges, Schroeder and
Kugel were named as a committee to pre
pare an ordinance to have the poles of
the telegraph, telephone and electric light
companies removed from the sidewalk
space along South Twenty-fourth and the
wires placed underground. Mr. Kuhn ex
plained that the sidewalks are very nar
row, and with- winter coming on all ob
structions should be removed.
Dundee officials will be notified that If
they deposit $3,000 In the hands of the
Omaha city treasurer by November 8, the
council will permit the western suburb to
connect a proposed sewer with an Omaha
sewer at Forty-third and Cuming streets,
A brass hand rail will be placed along
both sides of the Farnam street stairway
of the city hall, at a cost of $231.
The city attorney's department was In
structed to effect a compromise of the
suit of Forbes against the city for $1,100
ana the old houses now on a strip of
ground wanted , for street purposes on
Twenty-fourth near Fort.

LABOR CANDIDATES
ADDRESS MASS MEETING
Following; Parade, Addresses Are
Made at Washington Hall oa
Campaign Topics.
Labor' gavo a demonstration at Washing
ton hall Monday for the candidate the
unions have endorsed. A parade from
Labor temple to . Washington hall was
part of the program, In which about 300
men participated.
The speakers, who were labor leaders
and candidates, alleged that during the
rioting period of the street car strike and
until October 1 laboring men had been
denied the freedom of speech or right
of assembly. They said several mass
meetings held by the strikers and their
sympathizers were broken up by the of
ficers. To fall to support the labor can
didates at the polls would be equal to
giving up the rights permitted In Uie con
stitution of the United States.
Rev. J. L. Fisher was the first speaker
of the evening and was followed by K,
I. Morrow, who has been endorsed by the
Central Labor union. Mr. Morrow gave

There is no way of making lasting friends like "Making Good"; and Dr. Pierce's medicines well
exemplify this, and their friends, after more than two decades of popularity are numbered by the
hundreds of thousands. They have "made good" and they have not made drunkards.
A good, honest square-deal medicine of known composition is
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.
It still enjoys an immense sale, while most of the preparations that came into prominence in
the earlier period of its popularity have "gone by the board" and are never more heard of.
There must be . some reason for this long-time popularity and that is to be found in its superior
merits. When once given a tair trial tor weak stomach, or tor liver and blood affections, its
superior curative qualities are soon manifest; hence it has survived and grown in popular favor, while scores of less
meritorious articles have suddenly flashed into favor for a brief period and then been as soon forgotten.
For a torpid liver with Its attendant Indigestion, dyspepsia, headache, perhaps dixzlness, foul breath, nasty
coated tongue, with bitter taste, loss ot appetite, with distress after eating, nervousness and debility, nothing Is
as good as Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.
It's an honest, square-deal medicine with all its ingredients printed on bottle-wranper no secret, no hocus-pocus hum
bug, therefore don't accept a substitute that the dealer may make a little bigger pront. Insist on your right to have what
you call for. Don't buy
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription
Expecting it to prove a " cure-all." It is only advised for woman's special ailments.
It makes wealc women strong, sick women well. Less advertised than some preparations sold for like purposes,
Its sterling curative virtues still maintain Its position in the front ranks, where It stood over two decades ago.
As an invigorating tonic and strengthening nervine it is unequaled. It won't satisfy those who want " booze," for
there is not a drop of alcohol in it.
Dr. Pierre's Pleasant Pellets, the triginal Little Liver Pills, although the first pill of their kind in the market, still lead, and when
once tried arc ever afterwards in favor. Easy to take at candy. They regulate and invigorate Stomach, Liver and Bowels.
