Scottish Kit Masons to Build at Once
at Twentieth and Douglas.
WILL XOT WAII FOR SHKIXERS
Latter May Join In the t ndertaklna
Vet, but the Betiding Will Be

Are Drawn.
Scottish Fate Masons ot Omaha have
definitely decided to erect a Jisn.nnn tmple
on their grounds at Twentieth and Douglas
stree(s. whether the Bhrlners Join with
them or not. though there is still time
for the Bhriners to Join In the proposition
before working p!ans are completed.
John Lateneer has been engaged to draft
plans, and at a meeting of the board of
dlrectora of the Scottish Rites Thursday
night he will submit two sets of prelimi
nary plans, one of which probably will be
adopted.
Mr. La tenter s sketches are for a build
ing three stories In. height, ninety feet wide
132 feet long, with a handsome clarstc
front, which Includes forty-foot Doric col
umns on either side of the entrance.
The Scottish Rite property Is directly
across Douglas street from the Omaha club
and waa bought two or three years ago.
It Is wide enough to afford a glass plot and
trees on both sides of the building.
Many Scottish Rite Masons who are also
Shrlners are very anxious that the two
bodies Join In erecting the building, but
so far the Shrlner body has taken no action
toward doing so, thougn many Shrlners
will have stock In the building.
The blue lodges own the present Masonic
temple at Sixteenth and Capitol AVe. and
are not Interested In the new proposition
Lobeck Says Champ
Clark Will Be Dark
Horse of the Race
Congressman Says Wilson and Harmon
Forces Will Have to Turn to
Champ Clark.
Congressman Lobeck has returned from
Colorado, where he haa been rusticating
with his family. "While gsrlng at the
snow on the mountains out In the high
altitudes." said the congressman, In a re
miniscent mood, ."I began to give deep
consideration to the most available man
for the democratic nomination for the high
office of president of the United States.
We will have one candidate with us pretty
soon, as an official visitor, and hence It
behoovea the thoughtful democrats of the
land to get busy in providing a foeman
worthy of his steel. I think that's the
way to put It, In a case like this.
"Viewing day after day the snow on the
mountain tops of Colorado. It occurred to
me that we must this time avoid anything
like a cold proposition, or the business men
won't take to It warmly, and after a good
deal of serious thought I am willing to
name Champ Clark of old Missouri as the
real thing to give a rosy tinge to demo
cratic prospects in 1912. And In certain
contingencies I think Clark Is bound to win.
At present Wilson and Harmon have tho
Inside track, so far as public consideration
and agitation goes; but eventually these
two factions must turn to a third roan, and
that will mean Clark. He Is a double-dls-tllled
dllldabbler dipped in hia own dew,
and when to takes the stump with the
presidency lingering just over the horizon
the people will be given an opportunity to
linen to an orator who deals with tariff,
protection and other republican programs
Just as a- Mlssoluri mule deals with Ne
braska alfalfa. He will eat 'em up. sir.
The speaker Is a frlsad of the glad - and
golden west, and he will stir the electorate
as It haa not been stirred since the free
silver campaign."
The Omaha congressman did not have a
picture of W. J. Bryan with him.

Some Predict that It Will Advance to

New York Jobbers fnn

A threatened sugar famine confronts
Omaha and the entire country, according
to local Jobbers and retailers of that article
Some of the local Jobbers sre completely
out, others are selling only In small quan
tiuea and many retailers have a sufficient
supply for only a couple of weeks.
gugar is quoted in New York today at $7
per 1 pounds, which Is equal to 17.40 at
Omaha, and which would mean only about
twelve pounds for SI for the Omaha con
sumer. But New York reports none to sell
at even this figure.
Dealers here are selling on the basis of
what they had to pay tor the small supply
on hand and one can yet buy fifteen pounds
for 11 at some of the storts. and fourteen
at others. But unless new surplies arrive
soon it la predicted that only twelve or
thirteen pounds will be given for $1.
"I look to see sugar go to SS per 100
pounds In New York." said A. King, man
ager of Hayden Bros, grocery department,
"and It is now higher than I can remem
ber.' v
"It la not now a question of price at all.

Renewing Complexions
By Absorption
If your complexion Is marred with
blotches, raoth patches, pimples or freckles.
It's useless to putter with powders and
paints, lotions, creams and things. In an
effort to get rid of the trouble- Unless
you' have some ability as an artist you'll
mar your appearaaoe still mora.
The new and rational way Is to take off
the complexion Itself, with all Its offen
sive marks. Just get an ounce of pure
mercollzed wax at the druggist's and use
at night same as cold cream. Remove
next morning with water and soap, fol
lowing with lash of cold water. The
mercollzed wax absorbs the half-dead
scarf skin In flaky particles, so gradually
no one guesses you're treating your face
unless It be by the result which Is truly
wonderful- There's nothing like It for
restoring a natural, healthy and beautiful
complexion. Aunt Pally. Adv.
