HANSEL AND HENRY IN COURT
former Demands Salary Unpaid and
Matter is Being Arbitrated. t
CASE BEFORE JTOGE KENNEDY
General Manager of Ilefnnct Cbrlatlan
Fraternity, I. Ike Field Superin
tendent, Claims Money Due
from Dr. W. O. Henry.
John W. Hansel's claim for salary due
as general manager of the defunct Chris
tian Fraternity Is undergoing private ar
bitration with Mr. Hansel aa plaintiff, Dr.
W. O. Henry as defendant and Judge How
ard Kennedy of the district court of Doug
las county as arbitrator.
A private settlement of the claim Is
Vped for. but It Is not certain that lltiga
Jon In dtst.lct court will not follow. Pri
vate arbitration to adjudicate the mattir
was determined upon In the hope that pub
licity might be avoided.
The hearing Is going on In Judge Ken
nedy's court room and presents all the out
- ard semblance of a trial at law. Judge
Kennedy- sits upon the bench, and on one
aide of the table are Dr. W. O. Henry and
Vs attorney, Nelson C. Pratt, and on the
ther. Mr. Hansel and his lawyer, Howard
II. Baldritfe. A court reporter took notes
on all the arguments of counsel.
Betides, a Presbyterian Judge, a Presby
tertan plaintiff and defendant, the court
reporter and the bailiff were Presbyterian
and everything was duly synodleal until
two newspaper reporters neither a spirit
ual son of alvln or John Knox happened
Into the court room.
Intruders Tossed Out.
Mr. Baldrlge was In the midst of an elo
quent period. One of the reporters ex
tracted a few loose sheets of copy paper
from a pocket and began to take notes,
whereupon . Judge Kennedy remarked to
Mr. Daldrige:
"Perhaps I ought to Inform you that rep
resentatives of a distinguished press have
arrived."
Mr. Baldrlge, whose back had been turned
to the discordant element, declared with
great urbanity, that "I am sorry, but this
Is an executive session. If you would
care to stay unprofesslonally "
Whereupon the reporters left and the
attorney continued his address to the
arbitrator.
Mr. Baldrlge offered In evidence In be
half of his client the contract which Dr.
Henry voluntarily entered into when he
Induced Mr. Hansel and his son-in-law,
Lloyd E. Harter of Chicago, to come to
Omaha to organise and develop the Chris
tian Benevolence association." Dr. Henry
then In December, 1907 agreed with the
Board of Control that If It could not meet
the expenses and salaries of these men
without endangering the benefits of mem
bers, he would personally pay to the board
the necessary money to enable It do so.
Lapse la Contract.
"This contract," said the lawyer, reading
from a printed statement, "was performed
from February 22. 130S, until July, liX, or
fifteen months. For the months of July
and August only a part of the money nec
essary under the contract was furnished.
About August 1, Dr. Henry went to Europe
and since September 1, none of the money
due under the contract has been paid."
Mr. Hansel received by this contract a
salary of $200 per month and Lloyd E.
Hhrter, who was field superintendent of
tha Christian Fraternity, got $150 per
month. Mr. Harter has a suit filed In court
for salary due him.
After reading the contract, Mr. Baldrlge
explained at length to the arbitrator how
energetically and faithfully Mr. Hansel had
labored as general manager of the society.
"He went far beyond what was called
upon him to do by the contract and con
stitution," said the attorney. "He even
went Into the field and personally solicited
and procured men to Join the Christian Fra
ternity." Mr. Baldilge then declared that In the
transfer of the risks of the Christian Fra
ternity to the Security Mutual Life Insur
ance company cf Lincoln, his client had
been done a great wrong, "not only In the
abrogation of his contract, but In the blast
ing of his hopes and alms to make the
Christian Fraternity a great organization."
Mr. Baldrlge also pointed out that under
Mr. Hansel's management the fraternity
had grown unti'. It had 912 members en
rolled In all households, and had $&8,000 of
life Insurance written and 117 sick, accl
dent and funeral certificates made out.
Nelson C. Pratt then rose to speak for
Dr. Henry. He charged failure upon the
part of Mr. Hansel In the conduct of the
Institution and declared "the facts that the
soclty did not grow faster, did not attain
a greater size, that it was necesary to
transfer the risks, these constitute proofs
positive that the management of Mr. Han
sel was not efficient."
THE QEMEDY
FOnSOIlES ULCERS
There is but one way to cure an old sore or chronio ulcer, and that U
to remove tho cause that produces and keeps it open. No matter where
located, any sore that remains until it becomes chronio does so because of
impure blood; the circulation constantly discharges its polluted matter into
tho place and it is Impossible for nature to heal the sore. S. S. S. heals
sores aud ulcers by purifying the blood. It removes every trace of taint
or Impurity from the circulation, and thus completely docs away with the
cause. No local application reaches below the Infected flesh at the spot,
and for this reason can have no curative effect on a sore or ulcer; while
such treatment is being used alone, the germs and Impurities are constantly
increasing In the blood and the sore is bound to grow worse. When B.S.8.
has cleansed the blood and enriched and purified the circulation the
place begins to take on a more healthy appearance, the different symptoms
show Improvement, the flesh around the ulcer gets firm, new skin and
tissues are formed, and aided by pure, rich blood, nature provides a perfect
and lasting cure. Under the tonic and blood-purifying effects of 8.8.S., the
systom is built up, and those whose health has been impaired by the drain
and worry of an old sore will be greatly oeneflted by its use. Book oa
Sores ana Ulcers and any medical advice free to all who write.

WINTER WHEN IT WAS REAL
Some Actually Cold Weather is Re
called by the Old Boys.
SAY PRESENT ONLY COUNTERFEIT
Why, Book In 'SB 200 Mormons Frose
t Florence, When Mercury Waa
40 Below Them Waa
Heal Times.
The Oldest Inhabitant drew his chair a
bit closer, to the fire. The glow lighted
up his wrinkled visage and he smiled.
"Cold weather? Why, say, young man,
folks nowadays don't know what real cold
weather Is. Things ain't like they used
to be and In the last twenty-five years the
climate around Omaha has become kind
of womanish and weak. 'Pears like they
ain't no force to the weather any more.
Winter, like everything else now. Is only a
counterfeit.
"We had some temperatures down there
about 10 below. Isn't that Borne cold,
Uncle?" Inquired the properly rubdued
young audience.
"Ten degrees below why, say, young
feller, that Isn't a start," snorted the Aged
Pioneer. "Now, back In '66 we had a
winter here that waa a winter. That win
ter 200 Mormons froze to death at their
settlement they called Winter Quarters.
It's about where the village of Florence
Is now. When that 200 Mormons got done
freezing to death the scurvy como along
and cleaned out 300 more. The graves of
the whole outfit are up on the bluffs at
Florence now.
" 'Was It very cold?' Why, say, It was
something worse than 40 degrees ' below,
about then the only thermometer quit work
ing. That was the first strike we had In
Omaha.
Water Frose en Dance Floor.
" 'Long In January of '66 It was prettv
cool, too. It was that month that we had
the Inaugural ball and reception for Gov
ernor Marck Izard. They got unusually
gay and pretentious and started to scrub
the floor of the ball room at the City
hotel, a Utile one-story shack, where the
ball was held. The waler froze on the
floor and the ball turned into a skating
party. '
"We could only get nine of the women
of the city out to attend the grand func
tion. Mrs. T. B. Cuming of Omaha, was
one of these present at that early day so
ciety event. The refreshments consisted
of black coffee seasoned with brown sugar
and bacon sandwiches. It was before
pemmlcan was Invented."
The great blizzard that swept down over
the city on January 12, 1888, Is fresh In
the memory of many of the people of
Omaha. On that day a sleighing party of
1M persons crossing to Council Bluffs on
the Ice of the river, was caught In ths
storm and many were not located for two
days after. They became scattered In the
storm and took refuge In out-of-the-way
places. The storm started In Omaha at 3
o'clock in the morning and continued to
rise until all traffic abandoned, the horse
and cable cars stopped, and the stores
closed.
J. H. Duinont Fled In Time. N
"I played in luck on that night," re
marked J. H. Dumont, as he sat in his
comfortable chair in the Board of Trade
building. "I took the train for New York
Just before the Btorm broke, and slept
through It all. In the morning I woke to
find the country in the throes of the
storm. The passengers told me that the
train had been off the track three times
and I walked out front to find that we had
two engines pulling the train. That was
quite a sound sleep.
"For a real winter, that of 1880-81, was
about as severe as any I remember. It got
down to 32 degrees below In Omaha, but
there wasn't, aa I remember It, any very
considerable distress from it."
The wlntet oi 1880-81 was a memorable
one throughout the west. B. C. Wade,
general secretary of the Toung Men's
Christian association, was then, at 16
years of age, a mall carrier between Ccdar
vllle, Minn., and St. James.
"I got tied up in tit. James during a
blizzard that las -id three days," Bald Mr.
Wade. "When at last I started home In
company with a brother who started out
on snow shoes to rescue me, It took a whole
day to dig our way through the sixteen
miles home. That winter the snow in
many places covered the top of trees that
must have boen twemy-flve feet high.
"It seems almost Impossible, but on the
following Fourth ot July, when we had a
picnic at Cedxi- lake, we found a snow
drift down In a ravine and celebrated with
a snowball balt:r "
NORTHWESTERN'S NEW DEPOT
It Will Duplicate Its Present Freljtht
Station at Fourteenth and
Davenport Streets.
When the Northwestern bought a site
for its freight r"tpot at Fourteenth and
Davenport streets, the officials announced
that bur half ot the freight house would
be built at that time. The old freight house
at Fourteenth and Webster streetB was to
be used until more room was needed.
This time has evidently arrived, for the
company Is now preparing to build the
other half of the freight depodt.
The company owns tho block on Daven
port street between Thirteenth and Four
teenth streets. Half of the station waa
built on the Fourteenth street sldo of the
bloek and Frank Walters, general man
ager, now announces a duplicate to be
built facing on Thirteenth street.
SUFFERING ON LOST TRAIN?
Inofficial lleportf of Distress oa the
Snowbound Limited Come
from t'allenia. .
Alarming reports of suffering aboard the
Los Angeles Limited, the crack Union Pa
cific flyer between Omaha and the Angel
City, which Is marooned In the fastnesses
of Nevada owing to washouts, have been
received Indirectly from the town of
Callente.
Local passenger department officials of
th-j Union Pacific have received no report
from the officials at Bait Lake. The train
la tied up on the lines of the Han Pedro,
Los Angeles & .Salt Luke railroad and the
relief of the passengers is a matter to be
taken up by the officials of that road.
Passengers from the east and from
Omaha are routed by way of Ogden, Utah,
over the Southern Pacific. This plan will
be followed until the damage to the Halt
Lake tracks Is repaired, which will prob
ably be about two months.
Remarkable cures hsve been made by
