Cudahy Residence
Offered for Sale
One of the Most Palatial Homes in
Omaha is Put on the
Market.
iOli - . - - '
B. A. Cudahy's residence at 618 South
Thirty-seventh Street was put on tha mar
ket Wednesday and It was announced that
the purchaser. If one la secured by then,
will be given possession late next spring.
The residence would coat 1150,000 to build
at present prices. The house la of stone,
contains sixteen rooms and stands on prop
rrty 17x1(16 feet..
It Is doubtful If Mr. Cudahy or his
agents, Tukey Son, will get as much aa
$150,000 for the house alone, for the history
of expensive residences Is that the de
mand for them is ao comparatively small
that few buyers come to the front. For
another thing many men of sufficient
means to bny and keep up such a place
prefer to build their own. and tha present
trend Is farther west than the Cudahy
site, although this Is In tha heart of tha
best West Farnam district.
Mr. Cudahy's other real estate holdings
In Omaha Include two lots u Zouglaa
street between Eighteenth and Nineteenth,
tha Atrdome occupying a portion of one
of these. The lots have a frontage on
Doualaa Struct of 2CI feet. Tha west half
nf these extends 132 feet, the east half,
where the Alrdome lai runs back 0 feat.
The rt of thla east part Is owned by
the Hamilton estate.
Mr. Cudahy also bought tha northwest
ooner of Seventeenth and Douglas and
sold this again to Dr. H. C. Oifford.
Joseph Cudahy'a house will undoubtedly
be bought by DeForent Richards, cashier
of the -tmnh National. Mr. Richards ad
mitted Wednesday that tha deal la nearly
complete nd then added. "Wi have not
agreed upon a price. No transfer has been
made."
Tills remarkable bird possesses reasoning
power greater than Tom lawyers fleas.
He Is not trained never went to school
a day he Is just a genius born and a
mechanical sen. us at that.
Anton Lundstrom discovered this rooster
with brains a. a Missouri poultry show
and he went after him for the big Omaha
show. The bird is a Rhode Island Red and
a kingly looking fellow. There was some
thing the matter with him since the days
when he was a downy chirk. When his
youth was reached he did not crow so
much but he thought a lot. No one knew
Just what was the matter with him until
a Missouri farmer Invented a chlcketi
feeding devise. The rooster mastered the
mechanism, then it developed that he was
a genius.
This chicken feeder Is built for chickens
without any brains. It Is a cylinder placed
on a rack several feet above the ground.
There is a perch nearer the ground and
It Is so arranged that when a fowl flies
onto this perch the cylinder revolves and
scatters feed around the lot. All chickens
have an Instinct to fly up on perches and
when ordinary, common, brainless chickens
fly up on this perch, they scatter feed
all over the lot for themselves.
But not so with the Rhode Island Red,
who hat taken his degree a bachelor oi
mechanical arts. He reasoned out the
modui operandi and works the machine
over time.
He walks up to the machine with an im
portant cluck of two struts and a scratch.
He looks around to see If anyone Is watch
ing him and then deliberately lifts his left
foot he Is left handed and always uses
this foot pushes down the lever and the
feed flies about the lot. Calling his as
sociates, the rooster helps eat the grain
and then repeats the operation. He is the
only chicken In the lot who operates the
machine on purpose.
Aa a result of securing this famous rooster
and the chicken feeder, the secretary of
the Transmlsslsslppl show Insists that the
day Is coming when the rooaters will be
given mental teats by the Judges as well
a being cored for physical points.
"Chickens ought to pas an examination
to get Into the prixe winning clas," says
Lundstrom. "We may have an examination
In the kindergarten classes this year."
The Rhode Island Red and the feeding
device will arrive in Omaha Saturday and
will be set up In the Auditorium ready to
show Mot. day, when the thicken show opens
for a week.
Jury Returns Verdict Against Mrs.
George W: Newman for Dam
ages, for Contagion.
A mother s responsibility for the conduct
of her children as a part from that of the
husband and father was derlared by a jury
In district court Wednesday morning in
the return of a verdict of 11.000 against
Mrs. George VV. Newman, and exonera
ting Mr. Newman and Dr. J. Alex William,
codefendants In suit brought by Charles
Coppock to collect damages for contagious

Ill-natured dissatisfaction -.vlth the con
duet of his defense and frequent heated
suggestions to' John O. Telser, attorney,
led Frank Erdman, on trial for aitempt
to murder Tom Dennlson with an Infernal
machine. In a series of court room scenes
Wednesday morning. At the close of the
morning session Sheriff Bralley gave notice
to the defense that Erdman would there
after be seated behind counsel and di
rectly in front of a deputy sheriff.
"I do not Interfere with you in the trial
or the rase, but I am not going to have
any more such scones In this court room
so long as I am sheriff.' he declared.
Cursing to further emphaslie his dissat
isfaction, Erdman violently criticised Mr.
Telser for his method at a recess.
From the time the recess ended until the
noon adjournment Erdman critlclxed his
attorney almost constantly. Time after
time Erdman, who sat behind Telser,
leaned forward and impatiently demanded
the reason why Mr. Yelser did not ask thii
or that question. When Mr. Yelser would
object to some question asked by County
Attorney ingusn on direct examination the
defendant would lean forward and growl
out a suggestion or a demand that the ob
jection be withdrawn.
Mr. Telser's changed attitude led some
persons In the court room to form the be
lief that he will withdraw from the case
before the trial la finished. The attorney
said he would not quit the case and at
tempted to excuse Erdman by saying the he
Is nervous and excited from his long con
finement In Jail.
Withdrawal Impossible.
Judge Estelle, when the possibility of Mr.
Yelser asking permission to withdraw was
suggested to him, said:
"It has been done in certain circum
stances, but this case has gone so far that
would not permit an attorney to with
draw now."
When Camden Seibert, town marshal of
Louisville, Neb., testified he believed he
saw the defendant In Louisville a few days
before the finding of the dynamite suit
case on the Dennlson porch County Attor
ney English asked a question carrying the
suggestion that at the time he was In
Louisville Erdman might not have been
wearing glasses, aa ho I in the court
room, and the change may hamper Identi
fication In sonte degree.
Erdman jumped to his feet, snatched his
spectacles from his face and glared Into
the face of witness. ' The witness still re
fused to say positively he saw Erdman in
Louisville, but swore that he is almost
certain he did. He said the man he saw

Not an item here that does not carry our signed Tag-Policy. And for your informa
tion let us tell you that it is a most satisfactory policy. It would please us if all other mer
chants were to adopt it it is, selfishly, more satisfactory as it stands. But, the facts are, it
is the JUST POLICY that is your chief concern.
