Rainmakers Set Day for Fun and Frolio Thursday, June 19, has been chosen as the day for rain by the Omaha Retail Grocers' association and the Omaha Re tall Butchers' association.

Various athlstlo events and amusements are being planned as a program. The announcements now being sent out say that the retail men believe there has been so much rain this spring and summer that their picnic day will be bright and fair. KIMBALL SAYS CLUB WILL PASS SEPTEMBER MORN All the cow3, with tho exception of four head, are milking at this time, and these will drop calves by sale day. They are pure breds and high grades and are rich in DeKol and Mercedes blood. I selected these cows for use in my own herd, and they would not be for sale were it not for the fact that I am compelled to discontinue my dairy business on account of having more than I am able to look after. They are a straight, clean lot of cattle and are guaranteed to be just as repre sented on sale day. The heifers are nicely marked and are good individ uals. Will also sell my herd bull, General Oraddock DeKoL He is three years old and is out of an eight hun drecUpound dam, and his sire, Oraddock DeKol, recently sold for $1,300. Here is an opportunity for some breeder. "!jT I WILL FURNISH TUBERCULIN CERTIFICATE TO ANYONE DESIRING IT. CAN ALSO ,j!L FURNISH MILK RECORD OF EVERY COW SOLD. SALE UNDER COVER, RAIN OR SHINE. W. F.

IUBLI0 MAY BE BENEFITED Manufacturer Bluy No Lomcer Nnine Price nt "Which Articles Mar Be Bold fat netnll to the Consumers. "The decision of the United States su premo court atralnst patent monopoly Kill havo tho effect of throwing thou sands of articles In the big stores upon tho market somewhat cheaper han they have been said hitherto," said Joseph Hoyden on reading the decision of the supreme court In the nerve tonto case, In which the court held that manufactur ers or patent holders could not control the retail price of their goods. "I think this decision Is along Just lines," said Mr. Hayden. "We were bothered a good deal by various manu facturers who threatened to cut us off their list when we sold articles at less than the retail price set by tho manufac turer. We were cut off on several occa sions on certain lines of goods because we sold them a Uttlo cheaper, apd In one notable instance It was through a slight error of a new clerk. In that Instance we went ahead and got another line of goods that was Just W good, or, In faot, a little better, and afterward the com pany came to us and begged us to take back their line. We refused. "Some time ago we had some trouble with a hook-ond-oye concern because we sold hooks-and-eyes at a little less than the price quoted by the manufacturer. They sent a man to see us. He tried to show us where It would bo better for us ns well as themselves for. us to hold up the price. Their agent went away, how. over, saying the company did not care so roiioh how much we cut the price so long na we did not advertise the goods at a cut price." Hardship on netaller. "The old system has ,ben working something of a hardship on the retailer, "because he might buy a line of goods which he could not get rid of except by advertising it at a out price. He has bought it and paid for It In most case the manufacturer made no provision for taking the stuff back if It were not sold, no that .left the retailer up against !t. And I never could see any reason why a ytian could not sell his own goods nt whatever price he saw tit when once he lias nought it and paid for it. Yes, the new decision will perhaps lower the price of a great many articles." Charles Sherman of the Bherman-Mc-Conndl Drug store says the deolslon Is Officer Fires on Fleeing Burglar A series of coincidences oarly Tuesday morning may be tho means of convicting one, or possibly threo men, for attempted burglary at the Gaines & Hetmbaugh pool hall at Eighteenth and Douglas streets. Officer Ed Brlnkman, making his rounds, was In the rear of the American Hippodrome theater, when he heard scuf fling of feet in the cement areaway In the rear of the pool hall. He went to Investigate, and, as he reached the area Way, he saw a youth Jump out of a win dow and run. The officer fired upon him four times and gave chase, but the youth had too much the start and qulokly outdistanced htm. Captain Dempeey, returning from luncheon, was talking to Charley Moore at Fifteenth and Douglas streets, when he heard the shooting. A moment later he saw a young man In flight. Surmising that the youth was wanted, he halted htm and took him to headquarters, where later Brlnkman positively identified hlra as the burglar. His coat was torn, evi dently by one of the bullets from Brink man's revolver. The prisoner said his name is Walter Peterson and claimed Indianapolis as his home. At Thirteenth and Dodge streets De tectlves Fleming and Murphy heard the shots. They stopped two men who were running east These men are thought to be Implicated in the burglary. One is Fred Warner, a police character from Peoria. 111., and the other said his name is C. Madison of Council Bluffs. New Hotel Would Be in Two-Mile Limit of Medical School It the law requiring saloons to be af least two miles removed from any state Institution means two miles air line tho new Fontenelto hotel to be erected at Eighteenth and Douglas streets will be In the ' dry belt according to Watson Townsehd, city engineer. I Towns end says the postofflce is exactly two ml)M from the site of tho new state medical college, Forty-seoond and Har ney streets. The two-mile limit was found cn the maps by Townsend, who says It will leave the new hotel three blocks within the dry belt A few saloons now holding licenses would be in this for bidden district Basing his decision on the procedure followed by the city In the 4,600-foot pav ing limit the oity engineer says the law would be Interpreted as meaning on "air line." HIGH SCHOOL LITERARY WILL CLASH WEDNESDAY Two literary societies at the high school will clash for the championship of the school Wednesday In the school audi torlum. The Demosthenlan debating so clety, now holding the championship, will defend its title from the Athenian de bating society. The Demosthenlans will bo represented by the three debaters who unanimously defeated Des Moines High school. The Athenians have a team corn posed pf but one school debater, the other two being recruits. The stakes are very. one sided since the Demosthenlan debat ing society have nothing to gain with everything to lose, while the Athenian de bating society have everything to win with nothing to Ipse. The question to be debated is "Re solved, that all women should be given equal suffrage in the United States." The Demosthenlans will take the affirm ative and the Athenians the negative. The Athenian team wilt Include Edmund Booth, William Thompson and Wahlfred LIEUTENANT F. A. BUELL IN CHARGE OF STATION Lieutenant F. A. Buell of the coast artillery at Newport, IL I., has arrived in Omaha and has taken charge of the army recruiting station in the army building. He succeeds Captain R. p. Rj. fenberick, who has completed two years at the head of the recruiting station here and has retired. Captain and Mrs. BJfenberlck. who have been living at 203 South Thirty-seventh street expect to leave Sunday for British Coluirbla, where Captain Rifenbesick will engage In business, lie expects to spend the rest of his days in civil life. Thomas R, Kimball thinks the Com mercial club hasn't enough money to buy "September Morn" and a reproduc tion, unless made by an expensive artist would not be desirable for the club. "Anyway," says he, "we ore going to try to decorate the clubrooms elthar with Omaha talent or with pictures loaned by Omahans and we shall take plenty of time in the selections. There Is no hurry about It and as far as 'September Morn is concerned, I haven't thought seriously about it. The picture Is a good painting and now, especially after all the public ity It has had, it would take a big sum of money to buy it. It would be too much for the Commercial club, and, more over, we will not try to decorate the club with expansive paintings or take anything out of the treasury for them I have been asked to secure pointings for the walls and I oonslder It a serious undertaking. We don't wont to make it a sensational work or try to get the walls filled as soon as possible. We Just want to wait and let those who care to submit their work or those who would like to lend pictures come In with them No; there's nothing to the 'September Morn' thing." GIRL WRONGLY ARRESTED MAY NOT SUE THE CITY Report of the city legal department to the council Is to the effect that Segrid Bwanson, the girl arrested by Police Of ficer Caspar Stasiak while he was In a state of alleged drunkenness, cannot re cover damages from the city. She threat ens to sue for $10,000. The girl may try to recover from the officer's bondsmen, as that Is the only course left her. Btasiak's resignation was accepted by the council upon recommendation of Ryder. Shortly after the episode he tendered his resignation from the force, but it was held up. Ryder said an opinion from the legal department was secured, In which It was held that the offiocr's resignation will not affect the girl's suit for damages. COURT BAILIFF DEFENDS THE TOBACCO HABIT John H. Hurlbert. bailiff in Judge JSstelle's district court who will cele brate his seventy-fourth birthday next Saturday, has arisen to the defense of tobacco. He says he has heard of so many elderly men who attribute their good health to abstinence from cigars and pipe smoking that he wants to make a protest Mr. Hurlbert declares he has used tobacco ever since he was IS years old. but his friends assert that he looks nearer 60 them 74 years of age. Ue fought through the civil war, spent nineteen years as a railroad employe and has been court bailiff for thirteen years. HEAVY DAMAGE SUIT FILED AGAINST HARRY PULLMAN Oeraldlne M.

Sea Captain Refused Enlistment in Navy Hans Bjornsen, an ex-sea captain, was refused enlistment In the United States navy at the Omaha recruiting station be cause he was not a naturalized citizen. Bjornsen is only 32 years of age and is evidently well versed in nautical knowl edge. He brought with him licenses to show that he had soiled both as captain and first mate of Atlantic merchant steamers in his time. He said he had heard of the United States navy and was desirous of 'doing a hitch" In Its service. He had no naturalization papers and as he waa born in Denmark ho was not qualified to enlist ' Skinned from Ilend to Heel was Ben Pool, Threet, Ala., when dragged over a rough rood; but Bucklen's Arnica Solve healed all his Injuries. 25c For sale by Beaton Drug Co.

LOCAL CLOTHIER TO SWING AXE, "Brooks," Lively Men's Ou fitter, Inaugurates Period of Out Prices. 1 Rainy Spring Makes Immediate Forced Clearance of Cloth ing Absolutely Necessary. "Don't start to cutting clothing prices now. Brooks." "If you cut prices now we clothiers won't be able to get a regular profit again before full." "I would be ashamed to cut the life out of clothing prices before the Fourth of July, Brooks." Theee and similar expressions werA I made in plenty by fellow clothiers abouty town, but George Brooks heeded not; Georgia Brooks with hlo ultra smart cloth ing and furnishing goods establishment corner 16th and Harney Bts., started to "wield the nxe" on Saturday last and Ocorgo Is going to keep it up until his entire stock of spring and summer clothes has been sold down to a "mere shell. You see, Omaha clothing merchants havn hod an excaemniriv aiBIiearioniliK spring season of It this year, and they all know it even If they don't admit It Clothing has not moved at all. Many gigantic spring attire stocks have been scoroe broken into at all; men simply wouldn't buy spring and summer cloth ing while grisly wintry winds and unend ing storms and showers were doing doublo duty, Bo George Brooks started in to "Swlnc; the Axe." Said Brooks: "If men won't buy spring clothing at a profit they will buy it at cost or less." So Brooks started Into "Axe" priooa on Saturday last muoti to tho disgust of all the other clothing establishments in the city. In faot, half a dosen highly advertised clothing events would never have been announced at all J If it were not for Brooks determination' to thin down his stock nt ony cost Bo please know that the original "Axe Wlelder" this season, the knlfer of olo th ing prices" and the "commenccr" ot clothing cuts, was Oeorge Brooks, and George announces that the cutting Is still In force, and that the cutting will bo continued until stocks get so small that they won't worry him. Without a single exeoeptlon or reserve you may now pick out any Brooks suit that formerly sold at $30 and take It with you for I1S.C0, or, if you 'fancy some for mer 125 suit take it with you for $16.60. George Brooks' niftiest 30 suits ore going at I1D.G0, and his Very highest graded J33 and 140 suits are selling at 22.G0. The most energetlo "knock" that can be printed will not ohango the situation George Brooks Is selling EVERY man's suit or top coat in the house at cost or less; this fact pierces brother clothiers' hearts like a dart but the faot remains nevertheless. Remember George Brooks wields the axe he was the first to wield it he was the man who gave you 4th of July cloth ing prices in May. George Brooks has that splendid men's outfitting establishment in the City Na tional Bank Building, comer 16th and Harney streets.

"It often resulted in destructive competition between the various retailers Until some of them, it not most of them, quit handling the goods simply because others had cut the price sp low that there was no profit in It That meant that a ierson who wanted that article found that half the time he could not find It In stock. It resulted in this 'something Just as good' method of selling to customers. Anyway the decision will not effect the drug business to any great extent be cause there are proobably not over a half dozen articles In the stock that have teen controlled that way."
