From in Dayton Flood
A. V. Kinsler, one of several Oinana
men with property or famll) interests in
Da) ton, O.. Is still wondering Just howl
much of a loser ho may be as u result
of the flood.
So far as his largest building the old
Armor) block Is concerned, he figures
that It Is comparatively safe, as It wns
above the two bridges and dam that
went out of the river and If flooded at
all must have been from back-water,
which could not have done inueh harm
Hut he has still another down wn tms.
ncss building, which was In greater 'peril,
he fears. And then ho owns some twenty
renting cottages Imperilled even more,
probably.
He has been unable to get any word
from thero thus far, and Is eagerly
watching all dispatches.
Isv Rosenthal, Ms South Twenty-fifth
j street, has relatives residing In Dayton,
but feels that they are out of the way of
I tho flood, but no word of their safety
has yet reached him. ' Ills' mother. Mrs.
Matilda Rosenthal, nnd two sisters,
i Misses Sarah and Uena Rosenthal, all

welfare.
Arthur Williamson. Omaha manager
for tho American Jtadlator company, Is
worried about his parents, Mr. and Mrs
C. Williamson, who, according to

Arthur Williamson, .who is also from
Dayton, Is relieved so far ns her mother,
Mrs. Scott. Is concerned, as sho Is now

At a meeting of Jewish residents at the
Young Men's Hebrew association head
quarters, a relief committee of forty
was named to assist sufferers tn tho
storm district, Harry U. Zlmrnan,
chosen chairman; Henry Monsky, sec
retary, and Sam Frank, treasurer. Tho
committee will work with the general
relief committee. Accepting the chair
manship of the committee, Mr, Zlmman,
said:
"In the namo of humanity this meeting
Is called to enable tho Jewish people of
Omaha to assist the homeless and af
flicted men, women and children at our
city. Wo have suffered a crushing blow,
but will survive and our city will grow

tions of ours could have prevented this
terrible visitation, nnd all wo can do Is
to succor the Injured, comfort tho be
reaved, house the homeless and help to
put the lamed ones aguln on their feet.'
"It must be understood that while we

will be selected for this trying work tako
hold with h willing hand and a deter
mination to relieve suffering humanity.

RUMOKH AFLOAT THAT
EXTOKTION IS PRACTICED
-Jj
Arc there any dealers who are charging
extortionate prices for the necessities of
life as a result of the Increased demand
due to the storm? This Is what the re
lief committee wants to know. Rumors
were numerous to the effect that some
few dealers were asking the sufferers
extortionate prices for groceries, clothing
and coal
"I think that Is blackmail." said C. C.
Roiewater. secretary of the relief com
mittee, when he heard the report. "An
Investigation will be made when reports
like tbut come In from now on and wo
will take steps to have published the
names of uuy wh altimpt audi ixtoi
tlon. '
You're bilious, you have, a throbbing
sensation In your head, a bad taste in
your mouth, your eyes burn, your skin
is yellow, with dark rings under your
eyes; your llp are parched. No won
der you feel ugly, mean and Ill-tempered.
Your system Is full of bile not
properly passed off, and what you need
Is a cleaning up Inside. Don't contlnuo
being a bilious nuisance to yourself uud
those who love you, nnd don't resort to
harsh physics that irritate and Injure.
Remember that most disorders of the
stomach, liver and Intestines can be
quickly cured by morning with gentle,
thorough Cascarets they work while
you sleep. A 10-cent box from your

clear for months. Children love to tako
Cascarets, because they taste good and
never gripe or, sicken.

To the Members of the
Ccns.rvative Building and Loan As ociation:
After a close analysis of last Sunday's tornado, as affecting tho
loans made by this Association, wo find that not to exceed Four Hun
dred of our Six Thousand borrowing members suffered loss. These
losses run from a few shingles to total loss. Of those thus affected
more than 50 carried specific tornado insurance on their own prop-,
erties. Their losses are being quickly adjusted and many of theso ard
already restoring their houses.
Of those not carrying their own tornado policies, many are arrang
ing for funds with which to begin the work of repair; a number being
already at it. A considerable number of those whose properties are
totally destroyed will not he able to rebuild, unless the public comes to
the rescue.
To protect this Association, particularly tho investing and savings
members, we aro carrying a blankot tornado insurance policy of $150,
000.00. This does not assist or relievo those borrowing members who
did not carry specific tornado policies on their- own homes. Any losses
accruing to the Association on account of borrowing members not car
rying wind insurance, will bo paid out of this fund. After allowing the
most liberal estimates of loss, we find that the amount chargeable to
the insurance company protecting us by this blanket policy will bo no
great sum compared with the faco of the policy.
Our membership is absolutely safeguarded from any loss what
ever, as in addition to this $150,000.00 protective policy, the Associa
tion has a reserve or contingent loss fund of $250,000.00 available if
needed.
Our great effort right now is to assist those of our borrowing
members who suffered damage by last Sunday's storm, in getting their
houses in tenantable condition again, and we will go just as far as pos
sible in extending them financial assistance for this purpose.
On account of the number of inquiries being made at the office rel
ative to the effect of the recent disaster on our business, we believed it
best to make public the exact condition of affairs.
