"hunting for an animal which waa the survivor of the long-haired rhinoceros that elsted here In France when Franc in Inhabited by naked ssvages." He had received the f 1 1 tit news In letters which came simultaneously from two mem ber of the academy, one In Mexico and on In llraill. "Mr. president and dar colleague"," he cor eluded. "I thank you one more from the bottom of my heart." Dlaaer br I. lard. Colonel and Mra. Roosevelt were enter tained at dinner Saturday by Vice Rector I.lard, the guest also Including AmbaM dor and Mra. llacon. Ambassador anri Madame Juserand. Premlrr Brland. M. Dnumc roue, minister of education, and the deans of the faculties. Although Mr. Rooa"elt la entitled to wear the green brocaded uniform of an academician, he appeared today In his familiar frock caat drea. At J o'clock he delivered hla lecture In tha Grand Amphi theater of the Rarbo-itit. ""here he was cord ally received IITs remarks were fol lowed with Intenaa Interest. Kmlle Boutroux, who presided, after the cuHtomary routine business had been con cluded, addressed the academy on the re sult of hla obtiervatlona made during his recent visit to the United Btatea regarding the growth of educntlon there. M. Bou trnux took Colonel Roosevelt's Ideal as the highest tpe of man which American edu cation aought to produce, quoting fre quently Rooaevelt'a own words In the ex position of hla theme. STREET SIGN CAUSE OF WAR (Continued from , Fleet Page.) Ing in which "Bill" Price, has hla office, right across the .street, from Houck'e res taurant, and. everybody here knowa where they are. . , : To Cant Blar lam. Uesidee that the new bank building la to cost 3Q0,000 and that la a pretty big build ing for thia city, and it Is the general be Uat that it -will have one of those new fangled elevators In It, and they are always tangerous. A boy waa killed In one of thorn here just last year. The building la also to be ao high that It will be Impossible to tell the time of day by the nun by a person standing on O street In front of the bank in the afternoon. 80, of course, thero are eome who take the stand that such buildings have their drawbacks. Mr. Harpham of the excise board be lieves with Mr. Burnham that he, should be permitted to have that sign, and to one of them made the suggestion that the city waa being run along lines too puritanical. That statement haa caused the breach to widen. The persona against whom the charge waa dlreoted desire It to be under stood that this city la Just as tough as It can be and It haa "tough" Incubators at work all the time and It la clamoring for more. For Instance, the leaders of the movement to make Lincoln an ideal city In-Flat- that the town' needs more pool halls ao the unemployed and the university stu dents may have some place to loaf. And ao pool halls are scattered all over the ctty and most of them are crowded all the tlme.W . ' Wrtft'the mayor and hla advisers devot ing thclf time thinking up inurement for the laborer and permitting the establish ment of more pool halle for the students and the unemployed, their friends believe It was In very1 bad form for Mr. Burnham to disturb them with such an unheard of request as that for a sign board. The re quest should have gone fo the City Im provement society. f These men are working for an Ideal city In which men may live ami have their be ing and enjoy life, and considerable feel ing has been uoued against Mr. Burnlxiin because he mentioned auch a thing as a f"A0,0flO bank building. The request smacked too much of commercialism. So the fifth, eontlnuos with sentiment about equally divided. Brother la arrayed against father, father against son, and if It were left to a vote tomorrow whether Lincoln glvos up that bank building or stands for the sign board It Is very doubt ful which would win. "Ideal" fit Irsvn Trail of Death. The Hoard tf County Commissioners is trying to figure some way to take cbtb of the unfortunatea of thla county who are afflicted with consumption. Some time ago a local hospital estab ished a camp for theaa unfortunates, if aklng It all proper and sanitary and managed It In a way to prevent the danger of apread of the disease and started work to save the Uvea of the afflicted onea. Some one told the worthy city council about It and promptly that body passed an ordtnance to break up the camp. The oouncll Is trylag to make Lin coin the "ideal" etty and a consumptive camp wou.d never do In an Ideal city. So the poor afflicted unfortunates were turned out of their comfortable camp where they receivtd the beat of medical attention, to roam the streeta at will and alowly wait tor death. " Two of the patients turned looae on the streets to die are charges of the county and the county board Is trying to find some place where they may be kept and given the treatment usually accorded to an afflicted human being.

BORAH FIGHTS REPEAL OF LAW Contends that Adoption of ElUlns t'rawford Amendment Would Mean Death of Mirrntan Antl Trmt Measure. WASHINGTON, April 24-As has been the case en evernl occasions of late the ball gnme Saturday was a greater attrac tion to senators than the discussion of the lailruad bill and an adjournment of the senate was forced at 4 o'clock because of the absence of a quorum. The traffic section of the bill was again tha subject of Immediate consideration, and Senator Borah was the speaker. He contended that the adoption of the Klklns Crawfoid provision would mean the re peal of the Sherman anti-trust law so far as it applies to lallroads and announced his opposition to this course regardless of the republican platform. When Mr. Borah asserted that the pro vision also had the effect of exempting the roads from the operation of the com mon law, Mr. Elklns expressed a willing ness to amend the bill so as to rallove it from this churge. He said that on this point the Cummins' amendment went aa far as his, both legalizing agreements. Mr. Cummins undertook to point out the difference and was assisted by Mr. Bailey. "Th'e provisions of the senator from West Virginia permits the contracts," said the senator from Texas. "The amend ment of the senator from Iowa permits them, but makes It Impossible to carry them Into execution." Mr. Elklns cautioned his republican col leagues against advice from the democratic side. "Beware of the Greeks when they come bearing gifts," he said. Mr. Bailey admitted enjoyment over the differences of the republicans and said it was not the purpose of the democrats to mix In the controversy further than to say enough to keep the republicans Irri tated. To this pleasantry Mr. Elklns replied that the democrats would do well to look after their own differences and when Mr. Bailey asserted that there were no differ ences called attention to the roll call on the tariff bill. Amid laughter the Texan asserted the tariff votes bad been outlawed. Opposes Repeal of Law. Mr. Borah announced hla opposition to any repeal of the anti-trust law, but said that If it was to be superseded at all he would prefer the Cummins' amendment to other suggestions. At this point Mr. Suth erland raised the point as to compliance with the republican platform and Mr. Bucon asked him whether he would per mit himself to be controlled by a party platform when contrary to his own con viction. The Utah senator replied In the negative, but said he would hesitate a long time before setting up his individual Judgment against the combined declara tion of his party. "If I supposed," said Senator Smith of Michigan, who hitherto had expressed a contrary opinion, "that Jhls proposed legis lation would harmfully or unwisely change the anti-trust law, I would not vote for It If declared for by all the political par ties In Christendom," , , WCLF CREEK MENNQNITE ' COLONY MAY MOVE Owners of Several Thousand Acres In Hntrhlnaon County. 9.

Despite the windy weather, dealers did a thriving business on automobile row yes terday. Sales were good all week. W. L. Huffman reports tha sale of seversi Inter states last week. The Wallace Auto com pany sold a seven-passenger seventy horsepower Stearns to George A. Hoag land. Sweet-Edwards had a big week last week. Their sales Into the country was larger than at any time since they begnn business. Fredrlckson waa busy with the Chalmers, and Guy Smith delivered his usual number of Franklins. Owning an automobile rs one of the great pleasures of tbls life. The other day a young business man who Is to be married In June became so enamored of a spanking new Hupmoblle at Huffman's Now he Is not at all sure whether ho will go on and marry or take the car. The crew of the Chalmers "30," path finding car of the American Automobile as sociation, have Just about lost all the love and admiration they ever possessed for that noble animal, the horse, after passing through Kentucky and Tennessee, where the equlDfi race Is supposed to attain Its perfection. A horse or a mule la encoun tered every 100 yards through Kentucky and no man can predict what any one of them will do when he catches sight of an automobile. When the driver or rider, and horseback la the favorite method of locomotion, holds up his hand It means that the motorist must stop. This Is the law and, besides, certain gentlemen In this section of the country have such a high regard for legality in this respect that they are willing to use a double barreled shotgun to enforce It. Omaha Auto company received the fol lowing from Denver: "Wo came through with no accident whatever; not even a punctured tire. We stopped at Cheyenne about S p. m., and had brakes relieved, as we had bad hills out from Cheyenne. Come through lots of sand.

We had a very pleasant trip, and all feeling well. ARCHIE M. ANDERSON." Guy Smith said that a new record motor travel between Omaha and Kansas Ctty has been set by Captain Fred E. Buchan of the judge advocate general's staff of the United States army. He made the trip of 246 miles In eleven hours with a Franklin of twenty-eight horse power. A. new bridge over the Platte river at Louisville allowed him to go by way of Nebraska City, Falls Ctty, Hiawatha, At chison and Leavenworth, a route different from that employed when tourists were compelled to cross the Platte elsewhere. Captain Buchan had no trouble with either engine or tires and stopped only for gasoline during the run. One of the cars to win a perfect score In the recent 176-mlle endurance run of the Savannah (La.) Automobile club was the Hupmoblle. The run - was, pver roads of wretched condition, between Savannah and Jacksonville, Fla,, occupying two days. The Hupmoblle was In. competition with cars of much greater. wesght apd horsepower. Word has been ' received of a rather re markable record made In Minnesota with a Hupmoblle. j: B.. Keller drove a Hup moblle from Minneapolis to Breckenrldge. The distance of 250 miles was made In twelve hours,' and the gasoline consumed was only ten gallons an average of twenty-five miles per gallon over rough and tumble roads. R. R. Kimball has returned from Florida, where he spent the Winter. He said that Florida is enjoying a great boom. More people are becoming citizens of that state than ever in Its history. Mr. Kimball de voted himself to golf Instead of to auto mobiles, but he said that in Daytona and Oimond more cars are to be seen than any city their size In the United States. Manager Lee Huff is In tits new garage now and Is doing one of the largest busi nesses In the history of the agency. H. E. Sidles, general manager of the Bulck agency In this state, spent last week In Omaha. Work began on the new garage for th Paxton, Mitchell company last -week. Tha building will be ready for occupancy about June 15. William Drummond ' spent several days last week In western Nebraska. Drummond reports a glorious outlook for the White. Henry H.

He . was delighted with this section of the country, and spoke In the most complimentary terms of the business done by the Van Brunts. Among the cars sent out by the Sweet Edwards Auto compnny last week were a Parry roadster to Dr. Bowles, of Auburn and a Parry touring car to J. J. Brown of Lincoln.

' nH WATER REPORT DY LIMSDEN OiTei Preliminary Finding' Before Leaving for the East. NO NEW RECOMMENDATION Make Practically the Same Finding a Did Dr. I.aaejfeld In III Report ta th Water Board. Dr. L. li. Lumsden, water expert of the United 6tateS government has completed his Investigation of the water supply In Omaha and has submitted a preliminary re port of his findings which are In the main similar to those made by the health depart ment of the city of Omaha before the com ing of Dr. Lumsden. His principal recommendations are the abandonment of the Burt street, station as soon as practicable; the protection of the Florence intake from pollution from waters entering the river through Mill creek; the treatment of th water supply by gome purification process which -will render It free from dangerous pollution and the boil ing of all city water before using, both for private uso and also in the public schools. In his report Dr. Lumsden says he has been Investigating the conditions for nearly a month. These Investigations Included a sanitary survey of the Missouri river and Its Immediate water sheds on both side of the river for five and ten miles above the intakes; an epidemiological study of 106 In dividual casea of typhoid fever reported between March 1 and April 15; making of blood cultures and tests to determine the correctness of the clinical diagnosis and a careful consideration of tha sewerage sys tem, the supplies of milk, Ice and of bever ages and foods generally. Dr. Lumsden says that he found that the condition of the river during the last win ter wa unusual. Heavy rains in November washed a large amount of sewage into the river. Soon after the heavy rain cold weather set In ao that by December 10 th river was precticaJly covered with Ice from bank to bank. The river continued froxen until March 4 when the breaking up of th Ice at Omaha began. Same Report aa Lansrfeld. In hla report Dr. Lumsden covers about the same ground as was (one over by Dr. Millard Langfeld In his report to the water board of the Investigations made by him and the health department, the difference being that Dr. Langfeld investigated more typhoid fever cases than did Dr. Lumsden. Dr. Langfeld made a trip east and on his return recommended that a hypo-chlorlte of lime plant be Installed to assist In the purification of the water. Dr. LumBden makes the same report. , In speaking of the new plant about to be Installed Dr. Lumsden says: "In thla connection the contemplated ap plication to th water of the hypochlorite of lime treatment is to be commended as a step in the right direction. "If it Is found that the hypochlorite treatment will not effect an Improvement to a point which may reasonably be con sidered one of safety, other processes of purification In the place of and In addi tion to the hypochlorite treatment should be applied. Th other processes recom mended for consideration are (a) increased storage of water by Installation of addi tional sedimentation reservoirs - and (W filtration." In- conclusion Dr. Lumsden recommends: "General sanitary Improvements and as rigid sanitary supervision aa possible over all places where foods or beverages are prepared for sale or offered for sale. These general sanitary measures, of course, are always advisable, but they are particularly so in Omaha at the pres ent time, when the city has Just passed through an extensive outbreak of typhoid fever with a consequent unusually large number of foci of infection In typhoid fever patients und probably in typhoid baevilus carriers and with warm weather season approaching, when the conditions usually are most favorable for the spread of prosodcmlc typhoid fever." Finding of Local Doctor. After Dr. Lumsden had addressed the Douglas County Medical society Saturday noon the committee on publication gave out the following authorised atatement of the finding of the association: "Dr. Lumsden, who was sent to Omaha by the surgeon general of the publlo health of the Marine hospital service on request of the Douglas County Medical so ciety, transmitted by the governor to In vestigate our typhoid epidemic, has fin ished his work. Before leaving h sub mitted a preliminary report to the health office on his findings. At a meeting of the medical society, at noon Saturday at the Commercial club. In an Informal way he rendered a synopsis of this report. This Is to the effect that the epldemloj in his opinion, arose primarily from tne drinking water; that tho river water along Its whol course Is polluted and at many points, and that at both the Florence and Bur; street Intakes there is additional lo cal pollution. "The doctor strongly urged the continued belling of the water until by some method it is purified at the pumping station. The medical society feels that Dr. Lumsden's work In Omaha has been of such a charac ter that his visit has been eminently sat isfactory and will b& of inestimable value to the community." The people of Council Bluffs are urgently requested to boll all water Intended for domestic purposes. By bringing to the boiling point will preserve the taste and still be safe. Charles M. Bowers, M.
