BERKA. AND SCHR0EDER LEAD EjM-h Claims to Hit the Job Landed for Himself To Be Decided by Ilspshllraa Members of the Ceeaeil. As ths time for electing a successor ts Good ley Brucker as president of the city council draws near, aspirants for the honor ars active In their own behalf. The reor ganisation of the council will be effected next week under present plans. At present two pronounced candidates are in the field, Councllmen Louis Berks and Fred Sohroeder. Both contend that they have the place all sewed up and all that remains la for the successor to be named. Berks bases hi els lms on a promise, which he says members e the combina tion mads to him H contends that when Brucker was elected by ths oomblnatlon, be was promised ths p?sos this year. Other members say tss honor was promised to some republican and that Is where the difference lies. Schroeder take Issue with Berks, claim ing that the ploco Is opon for a republican and that he bis much tight to It as Berks. He claims sin votes, which means deadlock If he can produce them when the count Is mad. Ths fight for ths place, however, will never reach the floor of the council cham ber, members aa. Under hn agreement. It Is left to the iepu!Mcan members to name a successor to Brucker and the com bination Is to go through for the selection. The whole thing will be settled In the meeting of the republican members, which will be held later In ths week. Then unless there Is a split In the com bine, the choice will prevail hands down. owever, Schroeder Is said to bs ready to desert the combination and he declares that ha can carry two of ths Insurgent democrats with him. May Have Deadlock. In the event of a doadlock. Burro ester snd Davis will be placed In nomination, It Is said. But present signs point to Berka's selection. His supporters claim that Kugel. Davis and Burmester are for him first. last and all the time. These votes ars sufflolent to give him the nomination. "I am for Berks as long as he has chanoe." says Davis. "In my opinion, he has enough votes to nomlnata him. Whether he can bs elected Is another question. The minute he shows hs can't I am going to declaro for ths honor myself. 'If Sohroeder can carry two members of the oomblnatlon with htm, I believe he can foroe a deadlock, as I do not doubt ths three standpatters will vote against Berks." Ths standpatters, Funkhouser. McOovern and Bridges, are lying low. They think they hold the key to the situation and by lining up with soma oandldats other than Berka, can seours Import sot concessions In committee appointments.

The next man who come into his restaurant and asks for wild duck will get a refrigerating stare. No more wild ducks are to be bought in that shop. Several days ago two Innocent and mild- mannered men ambled Into ths Maurer cafe and looked with open scorn upon the dainties Hated on the bill of fare. They called tha head waiter. 'Ws want something wild, something that has a smack of tha fresh water or the woods. We pins for savage food. The head waiter opined that a braoe of ducks might be the proper thing, and the two men looked first at each other with a knowing expression and then called for the brace of duoks.

HAS TUT WITH COTOCLLMEN Reisrveentattves of Pool Hall Owaere Come Before Council end Make Objections to Commercial Cleb Plans. Characterising the petitions of the Oma i and Council Bluffs Power company and . I. Kirk snd sssociates for electrlo light power franchises as blackmailing schemes, F. A. Nash, president of the Omaha Elec tric Light and Power company, urged the members of the city oouncll not to sp- prove the franchises Monday afternoon at the meetng of the committee of the whole. Declaring that neither pe-tltioner had any Intention of carrying out the terms of the franchises, Mr. Nash cautioned the council not to rush Into any action which granted franchises to other companies. Mr. Nash also charged that the Omaha and Council Bluffs Ftreet Railway com pany has been and Is doing a power and lighting business In direct violation of ths city ordinances. "For thirty years, ths Omaha Electrlo Li glit and Power company has been doing business in the city of Omaha." said h. "In all that time, ws havs lived up to every requirement of tha city; we havs paid our royalties and occupation taxes gladly. Last year we paid Into the treasury S per cent of our gross buelnesa Ws havs tried to avoid litigation with ths city and have tried in every way to merit the good will of the people. ow, thess companies come In and ask for franchis-s, which If granted, would seriously handicap our business. I hate to say it, but the propositions are black- mall. The promoters know they can force us to buy them out. snd I have no hesitancy 1n saying that Is What ws would hsve to do." Mr. Nash's statement precipitated a long argument between himself and Councilman Funkhouser, who contended that It was the duty of the councllmen to consider any ap plication for a franchise. Funkhouser sug. gested to Nash that his company petition for a franchise. "You have no rights and privileges legally," said Funkhouser. "Why don't you corns In and ask for a franchlsa? Ths courts have held that you have no rights to do an electric light and power business." Decision Is Not Pinal. Mr. Nash contended that the decision of ths appeal court was not final and that his company still considered that It had a perpetual franchise. "Are you willing and ready to ask a franchise?" Interjected Councilman Hummel. Not at present," replied Mrs Nash. "Until the supreme court declares our franchise void or until We can agree with the council as to what franchise we should have, we will stand on our rights. Wi are giving the people everything they demand What else can they ask?" "Residence rates are too high and I can provs It," Interposed Funkhouser. "By competition, we can get fairer rates. The people look to us to protect their Interests and when It comes to granting franchises for twenty-five or thirty years, ws will Investigate It from every angle." The franchise ordinances were laid over for two weeks that the city clerk may have copies of both mads for members of ths council. Neither ordinance was discussed by ths council members.

In that the latter makes It Imperative for the proprietors to furnish bond In the sum of f30t and pro vides for a forfeiture of the license on second conviction, and also provides that the halls must be closed at midnight Judge Ben Baker, representing pool hall owners, objected to the bond provision and asked that proprietors, who conduct a mer cantile business In conjunction with the pool hall, be permitted to run the latter after midnight He also asked that the opening hour be made Instead of T a m. The Commercial club members, isillor Zlegler snd W. J. Bsxter. agreed to the change In the opening hour, but stood firm on the closing at midnight. All ordinances a ere referred to the Judiciary committee, which was instructed to confer with ths legal department, and draw an ordinance covering the points In dispute. J. J.

But little has bean said aut 'the most costly leak: the false economy ex isting today in nearly every household. Much foodstuffs are bought with but one point in view: "How cheap can I get . it?" without a thought of quality or "after cost." One of tho -most serious is baking powder. By the use of perfect baking powder the housewife can derive as much economy as from any other article used in baking and cooking. In selecting the baking powder, therefore, care should be exercised to purchase one that retains its original strength and always remains the same, thus making the food sweet and wholesome and producing sufficient leavening gaa to make the baking light. Very little of this leavening gas is produced by the cheap baking powders, making it necessary to use double the quantity ordinarily required to secure good results. You cannot experiment every time you make a cake or biscuits, or test the strength of your baking powder to fitid out how much of it you should use; yet with most baking powders you should do this for rhey are put together so carelessly they are never uniform, tho quality and strength varying with each can purchased." Calumet Baking Powder is made of chemically pure ingredi ents of tested strength. Experienced chemists put it up. The proportions of the different materials remain always the same. Bealed in air-tight cans, Calumet Baking Powder does not alter in strength and is not affected by atmospheric changes. In using Calumet you are bound to have uniform bread, cake or biscuits, as Calumet does not contain any cheap, useless or adulterating ingredients so commonly used to Increase the weight Furthermore it produces pure, wholesome food, and is a baking powder of rare merit; therefore is recommended by leading physicians and chemists. It complies with pure food laws, STATE and NATIONAL. Ths goods are moderate tn price, and an lady purchasing Calumet from her grocer, if not satisfied with it; can return it and hare her money refunded. The manufacturers of Calumet Baking Powder have Just pre pared a new edition of their handsome Cook Book, and will gladly mail it rVre to anyone who sends for tt.
