MONDAY THE OPENING DAY Annul Display of ntlonl Hortl raltarnl (oairrux Will Re Well Attended tr Experts from Dlstaare. The smdl of the apple Is In .the air. The Auditorium Is already redolent of the fragrant odor of the luscious fruit of vaMed hue and the perfume which P'-rmeates the sir within the Immediate vicinity of that big building is notice suf ficient In Itself that the second annual fruit exposition of the National Horticultural congress is nigh, in fact that It will be oten to the public next Monday morning. Nedless to ssy that with the opening of the big fruit show so close at hand the Auditorium was a bupy place yester day and will be until the (rates are thrown open to the public Monday morning. Sev eral of the larger exhibits have already been unloaded and are being Installed and the same Is true of the individual and smaller displays. The work of the deco rators is prac:lcally complete, although Chairman Wilcox of the aecoratlon com mittee and his henchmen will oe putting the flni;hlng touches to the general scheme today and possibly part of Sunday. With the Immense tables and pyramid stands In place It is already possible to form some idea of the magnitude of the tl.ow this year and indvcatlons are that It will eclipse thst of last year, both in quantity and quality of the displays. With the experience gained from the first ex po.'ltlon the management this year has been able to better arrange the space for the displays and every Inch of floor has bien apparently utilized to the very best advantage, Exhibit from Texas. The exhibit of the Texas Citrus Growers' association, with headquarters In Houston, has been assigned what might aptly be termed the place of honor, as its Interest ing Aimr.v will nennnv ths ranter nf th Auditorium. This exhibit of the semi- tropical products of that section of the country Is In charge of C. S. Canada arid E. F. Stockwell. and they, like the rest of the exhibitors on the ground, were busily engaged yesterday in installing their dis play. Features of this display from the stale of Texas are an orange tree loaded with ripe fruit of the Satsuma variety, which Is a product Indigenous to that sec tion. Alongside of the Satsuma tree is another tree with its branches laden with what to the uninitiated looks like s small, undeveloped orange that for some reason or another had become stunted In Its youth. It Is. In fact, a species of orange, but one that Is unknown to probably nearly every cltlsen of this section of the country. The fruit is known as the "kumquat," and while " it' lacks the Juice of the ordinary succulent orange, It la said to be good to eat and to preserve. The display Includes .several varieties of orange, grape fruit, lemons, rice, sugar, cane and other semi- tropical products. As decorative features the exhibit will Include several arborvltae trees and several specimens of the "kid lasamine." This exhibit, as a whole, prom Ises to be one of the attractive and Inter esting features of the fruit show. Nebraska; Well Represented. Nebraska will take a prominent place In this year's fruit show and Its repre sentatives were busily engaged yesterday installing the splendid exhibit from that state. The exhibit is In charge of C. fl Marshall of Lincoln, secretary of the Ne braska State Horticultural society, and C. H. Barnard of Table Rock, Neb. The display, which will occupy over 500 square feet of space, will Include apples of many varieties, pears, grapes, nuts and other fruits. This exhibit will occupy the two long tables directly to the right of the main entrance. Idaho, which made such splendid showing last year. Is here with another splendid exhibit. The exhibit from this state will, It Is expected, be the largest to be shewn hers this year. It Is In charge of J. F. Carr of Council, Idaho, and it will occupy the entire space under the gallery on the north side of the Audi torium building proper. Mr. Carr was anxiously looking yesterday for the ar rival' of the last three cars containing the Idaho exhibit. They are expected to reach here this morning. Prof. W. N. Hutt of Raleigh, N. C, arrived yesterday with ths exhibit from that state. Prof. Hutt Is .state horticul turist and the exhibit of which he has charge, while not so large as that from other states, will be a most Interesting and attractive one. The first of the Colorado exhibit arrived yesterday. Apples are the only fruit from that state unloaded thus far. Supertn tendent Reed received word yesterday that a fine exhibit from Durango, Colo. was scheduled to reach Council Bluffs to day or Sunday. The Durango display will consist of twenty-seven boxes .of apples and will be placed with the display from that state. Visiters rrem Idaho. Word was received at the National Hortl cultural congress headquarters yesterday that Captain J. ii. Bhawhan of Payette. Idaho, vice president of the congress, and A..E. Wood, also of Payette, vice president of the Idaho association, were expected to arrive In Council Bluffs Saturday. Prof. C. P.

Mr. and Mrs. Close were In charge of the Maryland hihi last year, and made nitftiy friends during their brief sojourn In Council Bluffs. 8. W. Fletcher, director of the University of Virginia, is expected here some time to day with the exhibit from that state. The Union Pacific and Illinois Central railroads will each have a big and Instruc tive exhibit of the fruits, vegetables and other like products grown In the territories traversed by their great railway systems. Iowa is expected to tak a prominent place In Its display of vegetables, and products which might be termed "near fruit." as well as Its applea, of which It can probably show more varieties than any other appl growing state. Superintendent Reed plans to move the headquarters of ths National Horticultural congress and his office force this morning from th Merrlam block to ths Central fire station, where be and his ssslstanta will occupy part of the main room on the ground floor during the week of the expos! lion.

PI.A TO IMPROVE BROADWAY Mayor Maloney Presents Proposltloa to Accomplish Resnlt. Mayor Thomas Maloney Is to the fore again with the proposition to repave Broadway, which has nearly as many ruts In It as a plowed field. Hs has had City Solicitor Kimball prepare a petition to bs circulated among the owners of Broadway property between Scott street and the crossing between Main and Fourth streets, aeking for ths repavement of that portion of the thoroughfare. Unless something happens the mayor will circulate the peti tion today -so as to have It ready to pre sent to the city council at Its meeting Mon day night. The petition as drawn by the city so licitor at the mayor's Instance, calls for repavement of the central portion of the street with vitrified pressed brick on six-inch concrete base, while the gutters on both sides of the street for a space of four feet from the curbs, are to be re paved with the granite blocks with which Broadway Is now paved. It has been suggested to use some as phalt filler for both brick and stone, and when the petition Is circulated, the senti ment of the' property owners Interested will be sounded as to this. The filler would add slightly to the cost, but would make a pavement which. It Is claimed. would be practically noiseless and much more durable than whan a filler Is not used. The councllmen ere in favor of the Im provement If the property owners want It and If the petition receives the necessary number of signers, It will undoubtedly be ordered. uun batuhuai LEADERS In the grocery department: Fresh ginger snaps, per one-half peck, 20 cents; fancy oleomar garine, two pounds 3o cents; our "Special" flour, every sack guaranteed, per sack, S1.43 fancy Early Ohio potatoes, ten bushels. 16 blackberries, four cans, IS cents; corn, peas or tomatoes, three cans. 28 cents: new cider, 36 cents per gallon; chow-chow, 20 cents per quart; large bottle maple and cane syrup, 36 cents; large bottle tomato catsup, li cents; peanut butter, 20 cents per pound; pure buckwheat sack, 45 cents, etc In our meat department: Sirloin or porterhouse steak, pound, 124 cents; rolled roasts, pound, up from 8 cents; fresh pork shoulder, pound, I2H cents; leaf lard, pound. 14 cents; fancy skinned hams, pound, 16 cents, etc. In our hardware department: Genuine Savory roaster, 79 cents; large double roaster, 2 cents; charcoal, 10 cents; $1 Inverted gas lamps, complete, 58 cents; storm door pajer, each, 10 cents; $1.25 food chopper, 7 cents; stovs pipe, 12S cents; elbows, 12 cents; SO-cent coal hod, 1 cents; galvanised wash tubs, 65-cent slse, 48 cents; 76-cent sise, 69 cents; 85-cent size, 69 cents, eto.

WOMAN IN INSANE ASYLUM Daugkter Who Aided In Conreallaw tks Body Makes Confession after Mother's Mind Breaks Dens, yHICAGO. Nov. 13 Henry Brodenheyer, a Jeweler of Madison, Wis., who was found dead near his home in the summer of 1906. and who was believed to have betn murdered by a robber, was killed by his wife, Margaret, now a patient at the Dunning-, 111., insane asyium. This is the con fession made today by the daughter, Clara Brodenheyer, to Assistant Chief of Police Schuettler of Chicago. The g:rl, who Is H years old, related how sho had aided In disposing of the body and how the crime had driven her mother insane. The con fession followed months of Investigation conducted by Chlcego detectives after Mrs. Brodenheyer and her daughter had come from Madison to Chicago to get away from the scene of the crime. Miss Brodenheyer. who swooned In Schuettler's office after the confess on, was removed by order of Assistant Chief Scbutller to the home of friends. She has not been arrested and probably will not be prosecuted because of her confession. Brodenheyer, who was 42 years okl. had aroused the Jealousy of his wife. She satisfied herself of his Infidelity and Ue cidd to kill bim. t-he lured him to an abandoned slaughter house on an old farm near Madison, under the pretense of lick ing ovsr the property There she shot him, ones behind the right ear and once in the forehead. He died almost Instantly. The daughter encountered her mother, hasten ing from the slaughter house. Her mother said that Brodenheyer had committed sui cide, but when the girl accused her of killing him, Mrs. Brodenheyer eonfts.ed snd asked her daughter to aid her In con cealing the crime. They found a rope, fastened It around Brodenbeyer's neck and attempted to string the body over a rafter, but ths rope broke and they dragged ths Great political interest centers in the coming session of Congress.

Mother and daughter returned home and next day Mrs. Brodenheyer reported to the police that her husband had left home with a strange man In a buKgy. The Madlscq police discovered the buggy sev eral days later and It was believed by them that Brodenheyer had been killed ty the stranger, but failure to find any trace of this man prompted the Madlsun authorities to ask aid of the Chicago police. A few months after the tragedy Mrs. Brodenheyer suld her husband's stora and she and Clara came to Chicago to live. Chicago detectives kept track of there and they made visits to the house, one of them paying especial attention to the daughter, hoping to gain her confidence. They had suspected her mother. The woman's mind finally became a wreck. Five weeks ago she was adjudged Insane and the daughter's breakdown and con fession followed.

No Belief for North Branrh. CRESTON. Ia., Nov. . (Speclal.)-A communication reoently received from P. 8. F.ustls. passenger traffic manager of the Burlington, by the railroad commissions! s says that no relief can be afforded north branch towns on ths Creston A Cumber land lines at present, that the Income from this, line at present Is not sufficient to vi t riant i ddwl expense of regular passen ger traffic. He says no formal complaint has ever been made to the State Railroad board, but complaints had been made to officials of the company by patrons of the road, and as all branch service was now receiving attention, he had taken up this matter himself and thinks It Impos sible to make any Improvement at present. From this It is Inferred that until some formal complaint la filed with the com missioner the north branch towns will have to accept the Inevitable. But recently the committees from those towns have been busy and have laid a formal complaint with the commissioners. Just what action may be expected later Is hard to predict. Itatchlas Hioi Onlltr.
