Navy Veterans to
Launch Battleship
Miniature is to Be Floated on tht
Miisoari Sunday Before Deco- ,
ration .Day. k : t
Extensive, plans are being laid by the
navy veterans of Omaha for the observing
ot Memorial -day, which falls on May 30,
but the custom of holding services will bs
followed asjn the years past The Sunday
prior to the day will see the celebration of

ans after It haa reached midstream.
Over 100 naval veterans make Omaha
their home at the present time, and the
entire number will be present at the cere
monies In full uniform. The veterans con
sist of men who save seen service in the
United States navy and who have oeen
honorably discharged. Men who are now

tion. The ship which will be launched will be

casion and the miniature battleship - will

Speculation as to
Successor to the- i
Late A. J. Latey
Office of Superintendent of Carriers
to Be Filled Who Will
Get It?
Who will get the position of superintend
ent of city delivery at the Omaha post of
fice, made vscant by the death of the late
superintendent, 'A. J. Latey, Is already at
tracting attention around the post' office.
The place is one that paid Mr. Latey 12.100,
although probably a new man would hare
to start in at I2.00O, but It la nonetheless
so much better than the average as to
be highly desirable. '
, Superintendent Latey's main reliance has
been his chief clerk. Will Brown, but he Is
not supposed to be under consideration.
The talk Is that If Postmaster Thomas has
the say, the appolntmet will go to either
Assistant Superintendent Grogan of to the
bead of the depot station, Ed Moag, both
of whom are known to be In especially
good grace with the postmaster. Mr. Qro
gan was a postofflce Inspector located at
Lincoln up to last year, when Mr. Thomas
gave him the Ames avenue station ahead of
all the local men, and then quickly pro
moted him to the city delivery office with
higher pay. Ed Hoag has been a letter
carrier of long service, who waa trans
ferred irom, ls route to take charge of
the depot station about two months ago
SeVefal others who might be otherwise
eligible are on what Postmaster Thomas
calls his "traitor's list," hava counted
themselves out of the running. . - . .i
Twenty-four burglaries of clothes snd
Jewelry aggregating a total value of several
thousand dollars and all committed within

Jackson, arrested Monday morning by the

goods.. An hour later his partner, Harry
Jackson, residing in the Klks hotel, was
taken by Detectives Hettfeld and Donahue
The robberies, which extend over the
space between April ?0 and May 8, all
bear the earmarks of a settled campaign
of old timers. In almost every instance,
the robbers Waited until the families were
absent from home. The general mode of
Ingress waa through a rear window. With
the exception of some clothe, the loot con.
slsted of Jewelry arid trinkets.
The first haul of tbe looters was obtained
from the rooms of J. K. Rugg In the L'ln

longings of the two was a small cap that
somewhat resembles a messenger s cap.
and it Is thought possible that the men

"Regan used to be in the banking busi

chum of the big Irish leader years ago
"At that time he was a slender, studious
looking young fellow, and could count
money faster than he can talk now. In
atead of aticklng to ' tha banking game,
when he found he was declining In health
he abandoned the handling of filthy bills
and boycotted all bacteria forevermore
He was honest tnd popular, and the dem
ocrats of St, Paul elected blm to the as
sembly, the upper body, of tha city coun
rll, twice In succession. -While assembly
man he made a study of city betterment
and on quitting the council waa made
street commissioner.
"Regan had the ambition to be the beat
street commissioner on record, but prl
Yately he haa told me there's where he
courted much trouble; There were too
many people to satisfy, and when Mayor
Keller, a republican, was elected, Regan
quit at once. Now he devotes all his time
to furthering the interests of the Hiber
nians in the nation. In Regan's home
town the order has eleven divisions of
men and nine women's auxiliaries. He Is

Nothing concerning the profession seems
more pussllng 16 tha dear old publlo than
the perpetual youth of our feminine mem
bers. How often we hear remarks like,
"Why, I saw her as Juliet forty years ago
and she doesn't look a year older now
Of course allowance is made for makeup,
but when they see us off the stage at close
range, they need another explanation.
How strange the women generally
haven't learned the secret of keeping the
face young! How simple a matter to get
an ounce of mercollsed wax at the drug
store, apply It like cold cream, and In the
morning wash it off! We know how this
gradually, Imperceptibly absorbs old cuticle
keeping the complexion new and fresh
free from fine lines, sallowness or over-red-
nesa. Wa know, too, that this mercollsed
wax Is the reason actresses don t wear
moth patchea, liver apota, pimples and the
like. TThy don't our sisters on the other
side of the footlights learn the reason, and
profit by. It? Adv.

How to Avoid Street Car Accidents
VI. Riding on the Running Board
nrME running board of an open car is not th R5est place in
the world to ride upon. In the first plac, there i6 the
danger of falling or being pushed off, and, in the next place, there
is the danger of being " raked" off by 6ome vehicle driving or
standing too close to the track to permit of safe passage, or by a
pile of building material which may be piled close to the track.
Therefore, always take a seat in the car when there are any va
cant; or, if you are obliged to ride upon the running board, hold
firmly to the upright hand-hold or the back of a seat and keep
a lookout for vehicles and other objects along the track.
