tlon of the I tr of Fire
work!. If the people of Omaha want a sane
Fourth of July, toy pistols and K'.ant fire
crackers should be done away with, accord
ing; to the opinions of Home of the city's
leading physicians. Pome are opposed to
firework of any kind, but the general opin
ion la that the things which need the most
attention are toy pistols and giant flre
c rack era, from the ue of which the great
number of cisea of lockjaw develop.
Prompt attention to Injuries when re
ceived la also suggested as a means of
lessening the evil connected with the cele
bration of Independence day. The use of
anti-tetanus serum is advised a a pre
ventive of lockjaw when people are
wounded by exploding firecrackers or pow
der burns.
"I feel that the question of a pane Fourth
II being greatly exaggerated," sstd Ir. A.
P. Condon, "and I know that If firecrack
tra and all other kinds of fireworks were
taken away from me when I was a kid I
would have fell that I was being deprived
of a great deal of pleasure.
"I would limit the size of the firecracker
t be u.cd, but I can see no reason why
the f mailer firecrackers should not be used.
Of course, there will be some accidents,
but there are accidents connected with
everything, and because an occasional case
of tetanus develops I do not think that
there Is any Justification for doing away
with fireworks."
Toy Pistol Tabooed.
"The dangerous caniion cracker and toy
pistol should be eliminated," said Dr.
Charles Rosewater. "but I can see no rea
son for doing away with the smaller fire
crackers. The sanest way to observe a
ane Fourth is to take care of Injuries
promptly. I believe that the people should
be Instructed to take Immediate action
aftr Injuries have been received.
"The first thing to do la to call a com
petent physician and In the case' of open
wounds they should be washed Immediately
and kept open. The up-to-date physician
knows that such wounds should not be
sewed up, for this often results In lock
Jaw, When dirt or powder Is found In a
wound, anti-tetanus serum should be In
jected to prevent lockjaw. I believe that
fully 97 per cent of the cases recover where
the proper precautions are taRen and the
' anti-tetanus serum Is used.
Liability of l.ockjarr.
"Before' this method was pursued. In Chi
cago out of 800 cases thirty deaths resulted
from lockjaw, while during the last two
years since the Introduction of anti-tetanus
only three deaths have resulted. It should
be used In time, as It Is not a cure, but a
preventive of the dreaded disease.
"With regard to the sane Fourth of July
proposition," said Dr. A, K. Detweller, "I
would say, do away with the greatest of
all evils connected with such celebrations
by abolishing the toy pistol. These are used
by youngsters who never ought to be al
lowed to handle them and are the cause
of more lockjaw than all the other flre
worka combined. Giant crackera also should
be prohibited, but there Is no use of making
a fuea over the small firecrackers."
"If a sane Fourth," said Dr. Frank
Wi jy, "means a doing away with foolish
fireworks, I would say that I am heartily
to favor of a sane Fourth. The thlag of
Imitation war and high explosives, besides
killing off our young,- Is nothing but a
nuisance to the community and should be
prohibited."
Woodbury Says
the Company Will
Build the Main
President of Water Company Writes
to the Water Board Another
i Proposition,
i President Woodbury of the Water com
pany has again written to the Omaha water
board, suggesting a way In which the new
main from the pumping station at Florence
to Omaha may be laid. The letter, which
was delivered to the water board In Omaha
today, reads:
. "NEW YORK. May 4, 1910-To the Water
.Board of the City of Omaha Gentlemen:
In common with the Intelligent citlxens of
Omaha, the Omaha. Water company recog
nizee, the fact that an additional main to
Florence Is sorely needed for the safety and
good service to the citlxens of Omaha.
"On July. 27, 1908, I wrote your honorable
board stating that 'the board of directors
had authorised me to say that the Water
company will undertake to lay ao much of a
new main between Florence and Omaha as
may be necessary, provided the water board
will enter Into an agreement, binding upon
the city, to pay the company upon comple
tion of any portion of the works the total
cost of such improvements, with per cent
Interest In addition to what would other
wise be the purchase price."
"To this letter I receive no reply, so on
October 22 of the same year I again wrote
to the water board reiterating the offer, to
which I received no reply.
"On July L 1910. the city of Omaha will
owe the Omaha Water company, with ac
crued Interest, approximately $425,000 for
past due unvald hyJrant rental. If the city
will pay the company thlj money I will
recommend the board of directors to renew
the proposition nw.de In our former letters.
This suggestion Is made to the water board
' aolely In she Interests of the citlxens of
Omaha and for the benefits of the water
plant, only forestalling an extension that
the city of Omaha will be obliged to make
when It cornea Into possession of the plant.

them there are business men. doctors,
lawyers and laborers. From various towns
and counties In the state will come leaders
of their communities who have written In

at least one reprenentatlve from more than
half the counties In the state.
Monday the club will have a man at the

to accommodate those who tor one reason
and another have not yet bought their

"We have founl The Bee census slips to
be of the greatest advantage to us," said
Chief Clerk Graff of the census depart
ment. "These slips huve been coming In
at the rate of about 100 dally. Of course
some of them are from persons that al
ready have been enumeratfd by some other
member of the ft mlly. But a great many
of them are from people that have been
missed by the enumerators from some
cause, or people who have been out of

"It Is safe to say that The Bee slips
have helped us to get S00 or 400 names that
we could not have secured otherwise.

and a schedule obtained by mall or In per
