Prcnldcnt George Normnn of tli
Omaha Central I-abor union has appointed
ommlttees whloh arc calling upon some
of the retailers In Omaha, endeavoring to
further tho movement for early closing
on Saturday evening. Trie movement for
lo.MnK tho ntorca lit 6 o'clock on Batur
flay evenings Is the outgrowth of. the
female labor law which went into effeet
a few weeks ago limiting the hours
women may be employed to ntne hours
'ti any one day and not mora than fifty
four Hours in any given week. This
made it necessary for tho stores to
abandon their policy of keeping open
.intll 9 o'clock At night, or to put on
two shifts of women clerks, one to go to
work at 8 and get off at C and the other
to go to work at 10 and get off at 9 with
tin hour off at noon and an hour oft
for dinner.
Although the rtotoilcrs Association of
Omaha met something over a week ago
and decided that the stores should dose
at 6 o'clock Saturday evenings during tho
five Saturdays in August some of the 'in
dividual establishments have not yet de
rldcd to comply with tho plan.
It is contended by those who favor
closing that the real reason for being
open jp late Saturday nights no longer
exists as it did some years ngo, Homo
years ago the mechanics, tradesmen and
all laboring people In tho city worked
until evening on Saturdays and the
stores wire kept open for the accommo
dation of those who drew their pay Into
Saturday evening and desired to do
some shopping nfter working hours. Now
it is contended most of these are paid
at noon and do not work Saturday after
noons. The result is that they can get
Into the stores and do their shopping just
the same as others before night.
Rides on the Boat
William llraneff, 712 South Twenty-second
street, returned home Wednesday
evening and after accusing his wlfo with
having been a patron of the steamer
Saturn proceeded to brutally beat her.
Neighbors called the police and Detec
tives Lahey and Murphy were dispatched j
to the scene. As they came In front of
the bouso Braneff was Just emerging '
from the front door and was hailed by I
tho officers. Evidently recognizing the
two he ran back Inside with the two
corpulent sleuths closo on his heels.
Up the front stairs he ran to the second
story, as did his pursuers. Down the
back stairs he flew, with I-aliey and
Murphy coming full steam ahead. Hack
to the front of the house he galloped,
and, thinking to throw the officers off
the track, again mounted the front
stairs. Iahey had run out of gasollno
by this time and was seated at the foot
of the back descent mopping his brow.
Murphy, however, who Is more sylph
like, threw her Into low speed and
climbed the stairs at n gallop, llraneff
kept on for tho back stairs, but observ
ing the heaving mtnton of the law seated
below rushed for the front descent, but
alas, too lato! Murphy was almost at
the top. Dashing from the hallway to a
bedroom ho raised the window and
Jumped to the ground, some twenty fen
below, where he bruised his bank book
and sprained his brain sufficiently to
allow tho rnmmornf crt I.ili.v m nni..
upon his unresisting frame and inform !
him that "the carriage awAlts muh luiV"
llraneff now swelters in a dungeon
wearing away tho first day of a ninety
day Jail sentence which ho received at
the hands of Judgo Altstadt.

All of tho progressive merchants of Omalra hav
agreed to close their stores at C o'clock each Saturday
afternoon during August The lfayden Store Is among
the number and wc ask that beginning with next Sat
urday you plan to do your shopping early In the) day

WINCHELL TAKES MORE
MEN TO CHICAGO OFFICE
Tho nppolntment of n. "U Wlnchell to
tho position of traffic director of the
tlarrlman lines of road Is causing some
thing of a drain on tho Union Fociflo
headquarters forces here. First Howard

called to become stenographer for Mr.
Drunsr and now Major Conrad F. Schar
mann, chief clerk to Charles P. lions,
engineer on special work, has been ten
dered a position and has accepted.
Major Bcharmsnn will be assigned to
duty August 1, but In Just what capacity
he does not know. The major Is one of
the old guard of the Union r-aclflc. Ho
is about 40 years of age nnd started his
railroad career at North I'latto as a call
boy. He continued with tho compny un
til the breaking our of the Spanish-American
war, when ho enlisted In the Third
Nebraska, and before his discharge be
came a major, He turning home, he went
Into politics nnd was elected treasurer of
Lincoln county. Upon tho expiration of
Ills term he again went with the Union
Pacific, becoming private secretary to A,
U Mohler, then general manager, llo
continued In this position two and ono
half years and then went to the office of
Engineer Hoes, whero ho has since re
malned.
