Here are some expressions from lire
Commercial dub meo relative to the
value of membership la the eiub:
a Haverstlck, President Omaha
Commercial dub: "Through the Com
mercial club are conducted all ot the
necessary activities for Omeha'e eommer
dal., industrial and dvlc inngrem. it le
the only medium organised and equipped
tor this purpose and la therefore Invalu
able; the developer of the highest type
ef dtlsenshlp and prepared at all times

city's material welfare.
C. C Belden. Thorn peon, Bcldeo a Co.:
"It la impomlbla for any business man

U be wea and favorably known hi a great

' C eerted Fere. '
3. H. Dusaont, J. U. Dumont a Boa!
The value ef the commercial dub of
Omaha Mm chiefly In the concentrated
force waic. the dtiaena of Omaha are
enabled, through ft, ta throw tnto every
effort made to Increase the business and
the prestige ot the city and protect It
against unjust discrimination and unfair
competition, lacldamally. the mlngans
ef the various dements comprising Ita
membership smoothes out many differ
encea which otherwise would ietord de
velopment and apllt the community into
factions. The work of the dub Is cee
telnly arrataable to the dty. and every
loyal ettlaau shoald aire It ala support."
TV. H, KCor4 President McCord-Brady
oomnany: "It It the desire of thl. com
pany and- all of Ita 'officers to work for
the welfare of thai Commercial dub I
this dty la an unselfish and. Impersonal
way.- It Is.. i.ellSv the desire icf the
majority 01 me memoers m m. tvumw
dal elub to work In the same way for
the welfare of each one of Ita membera.
It Is. therefore, only fair that the Com
mercial club should have the earn, cordial
treatment from each one of the business
Institutions la this dty, whether retailer,
wholesaler or manufacturer. -
George H. Kelly', vtce preatdenf execu
tive committee; president Adams a Kelly
company: "The Commercial club Is the
only organisation embracing all llnea of
business through which Intelligent and
effective action uiay be taken on any sub
ject, it Is the business men', clearing
house and the greatest single power for
material development In the "city. . The
dub la working all the time for the. good
of the community and therefore to the
direct benefit of every d titan. Its policy
and work are carried on unceasingly until
Its objects are accomplished."
J. E. Baura, ea-presldent; The Bennett
company: "The one great big fact that
the Commercial club lands for Omaha la
the essence of the whole thing, and to
lightly represent this city the Commercial
club should be an Institution strong, alert,
aggressive and high-class, and representa
tive of bvery business and civic Interest of
the community, and that la Just what I
think H U."

Emphatic denial of all the charges made
against her by her former maid, Mia J
Anna Klelson. was mads by Mra W. It
McKcen, formerly Mrs. C. W. Hull, In an
affidavit read before Judge Troup In dis
trict court yesterday. '

waa a (art of the hearing on Mr. Bull's
motion for aa order restraining Mra. Me

Mra. Hull, with tiding around the city
with Mr. McKeen in the early summer ef
1910 were read by F. A. Brogan and T.
J. Mahoney, counsel for Mr. Huil.
Mr. Hull was the only party to the suit
who appeared In court '
Did Call Occasionally.
In her affidavit Mra McKeen denied
the maid's testimony that McKeea fre
quently visited her wbea she waa Mrs
Hull, but admitted that he called 'occa
sionally. She denied that he frequently
remained until midnight, and declared
that oa the rare occasions on which he
called he always left about le o'clock.
She denied that when he called he was
entertained la dimly lighted -rooms, hut
declared there were BO doors between the
rooms aad all the rooms ware well Il
luminated.
Mra. McKeea denied the story of Miss
N lei son that once when Dr. "Paul Lud-
dington, Mrs. McKcen's brother, called, '
she let McKeen hurriedly out the back:
door. Regarding the girl's statement that 1
onct after Mr. McKeen'a departure she
found In the library safety pins with,
which the petticoats of Mra Hull had ;
been fastened, Mra. McKeen said (be bad
no recollection of any such Incident, but
she knows positively that no safety ping

In affidavits by McKeen and Mra lie

ments of George W. MvClaln, Joseph

saw the two driving together In th. early
summer of 191. These statements were
made In affidavits read by Hull's at
torneys Mr. Borbank read an affidavit by him

from Hull by threatening publicity. Ha
said be (lied the original divorce petition
for Mra. Hull and withdrew ft from the
file It charged cruelty and adultery.
Later a supplemental petition waa filed, -he
said, and Brogan, aa Hull's attorney.
destroyed the original petition and asked
that the papers be kept out of the office
of the clerk of the district court so ha
newspapers would not get them. .

brought a property for H.509 shortly after
Mrs, HuJl received her first alimony m-
stalment, were placed on the stand.
