Touches Their Hearts.
The leading float, Uncle Sam wel
coming the German Immigrants, touched
the hearts of many an old German set
tler as It slowly passed by the street
corners, and tears of gladness wero seen
to trickle down many a wrinkled face
The float deilgnatcd a huge gate .lead
ins to prosperity by the channel' of thrift
and honesty and" Uncle' Sam was the
gate-keeper As the German Immigrants,
both young and old, appeared before the
gate-keeper they were received with
open arms and urged to make their en
trance. All the Immigrants were headed
for Omaha and their baggage was
plainly labeled.
The second float In the parade was
entitled German, music. German music
has always commanded the respect and
admiration of every world power and,
In America, It almost reigns supreme.
Tho flodt pictures singers, trumpeters
and other musicians and a huge lyre
was constructed at the head of the
head of the float. The names of the fa
mous German musicians, Beethoven,
Haydn, Mozart, Mendelssohn, Wagner
and .Strauss, were given a generous
vlejv and were recognized by every
grown-up and every scnooi cnua, wno
ever studied tfie elements of music or
history. The six named musicians are
the greatest Germany or the world ever
saw. All but one are masters of the,
dim and distant past. Strauss still lives
and his operas, Including the "Chocolate
Soldier." have been Been in omatia in
recent years.
Grrmnn Poetry.
The third float allegorlcally represented
German ,poetry. Scribes and bards, with
their scrolls In their hands, rode on the
float, while a gigantic winged horse with
a legendary poet astride its beautiful
white back reared up In the front with
head erect and front fcef high In the air.
Pictures , of , the famous German epic
poets, Goethe and Schiller, framed In
wreathes, rested underneath" the horsaM
raised hoofs. The names of Uhland, Lea
sing, Frelllgrath and Gelbel were written
along the side pt the float,
German art was pictured on the follow
ing float. German painters and sculptors
are not as well known as some of their
Italian and French contemporaries, but
their work Is certainly deserving of
praise and they got It from the throngs
that packed Omaha's streets. Two great
American and two German flags draped
the prow and stern of the float, which
(-was patterned much after a small Ger
man boat and two big pallets with the
names of the painters, Menzel, Bier
stadt, Lenbach and Leutze were -placed
on the rear.
SclrutlHtft nrmrnilirrrd.
German scientists and Inventors were
given their Just deserts on the next float.
The compass, the globe, the telescope
and the transit were eVected In the
renter of the float and names of Von
Humboldt, Vlrchow, Dr. Kooh, Uoentgen,
Mergenthaler and Lick, the most famous
of luter astronomers were Inscribed on
plutor on each side.
Cnptatna of Jmluatry.
The sixth float left 'the realm of early
years and turned toward present day
life. "Captains of Industry" was the
title of the float. A hugeynfvll with a
husky smithy pounding (mergetically on
hot Iron while the, bellows behind shot
spurts of flames high Into the air, was
et&tloned In the center of the stage.
Mercury, equipped wjth winged feet and
enchanted tceptor, was poised nn a sin
gle railroad wheel, which In turn was
j.erpondloularly braced to a single steel
roll resting on a' silvery "cloud. The
names Frlofi, Spreekles, Vlllard, Weycr
hauser, Stelnway, Astor and Busch, all
great German capitalists who are known
by nearly every American, wero Inscribed
on the aide.
German-American patriots followed on
the seventh float. Germans fought on
tho side of the United States In every
war. and many aintirigulahed themselves
with high honors. Soldiers of every war,
weapons and armor were plcturld and
the beautiful foddesa of peace fcsUjl
gently at tho top of the float nnd held
a wreath of peaco over nil. Under the
spreading wings 'of an American- eaglo
were the names of Herkimer, Muhlenberg,
Steubon, Do Kalb, Pchurz, Stegal, nlenker
and Osterhaus, all Germnn patriots, who
distinguished themselves Ih battle for tho
new country. On each slue or the noat
a modest sign called attention to the fnct
that 35,000 German union soldiers fought
fn the civil war,
(ier.iinn-Anirrlrnn Alllnnrr.
The eighth float represented the German-American
national alliance that ex
ists between tho two countries today. The
reasons for tho alllanco were written on
a large star and tho big reason Is at
tributed to the German press In the
United States. Patriotism, political Inde
pendence, individual right, obedience to
law, good citizenship, true temperament
and others explained further why such
an alliance exists. A miniature of tho
famous Pastorlus Memorial monument
that Is erected at Oermantown, Pa!, was
stationed at the head of tho float.
(Priitiiitvjlume Life.''
German homo life was desplctcd'by the
ninth float. A happy family of contented
Germans gathered around tho family
table telling stories and having a good
old time together without seeking amuse
ment artificially. Along the , side of the
float mottos weres Inscribed. "The Hand
thnt Rocks the Cradle Rules the World."
read one Inscription, while the other
read, "Here Woman Reigns Supreme,
Not by Political Suffrage, But by In
herent Right."
The tenth and last! float was the most
beautiful of all and It carried a more
touching Bensatlon than did, tho, others.
Seated In a throne sat two beautiful
women, one,, costumed in 'the colors of
Germany and tho other In tho colors of
America. German and American flags
draped the throne on all sides, while
olive wreathes of peacewere tied around
the flags, A huge eagle, with wings out
spread and bill open as If heralding tho
coming of the two great nations, oc
cupied the head position on the float.
German shields and coats of arms hung
along the sWes. But above all, the' part
of the float' that" touched tho hearts of
the crowds of .Germans . that witnessed
the pageant was the Inscription on tho
side, "Germanla Our Mother, Columbia
Our Bride." It expressed tho German's
feelings In the briefest possible manner,
but nevertheless conveyed a stronger
meaning than If It had been Put In a
longer' sentence,
CABLES GrtlJ AT HELP TO POLICE!

where apparently hopelois congestion
was the rule and made 'room for tho
floats to get through.
One of the features of the parade that
facilitated In handling the crowd was
the fact that the floats wero so close

to dart through to get Into more ad

Harry Welch and

Harry Welch, former Omaha Western

a patient at tho KanltH-.tco stato hospital
for tho Insane, w:a note uy ono attend
ant and so severely beaten by two oth
ers that ho died front his Injuries. This
statement is said to have been made to
day to Stnto's Attorney AV. II. Dyer In
a confession by William Wolfe, a former
hospital attendant, under arrest, charged
with murder. Hoist died last March.
Wolfo Is sold to havto ucclarcd that
when Hoist became restless und Insisted
on getting out of bod, some of tho at
tendants In tho ward whero tho less
tractuble patients aro kept, became an
gry and decided to "fix" him so he would
bo quiet.
Wolfo said that he held the patient
While John Mahan and a former em
ploye, whose ntimo has not been made
public, beat the old man. Next day It
was discovered that six of Hoist's ribs
had been broken and ho died shortly
afterward from his Injuries. Mahan has
been arrested, but the other man Impli

WoKe declared that Mahafi S&.1J to him
tho next 'day: -"Tlthr1 fenowlr going- to

If they ask youtnythlng about It say
that he would not stay In bod and fell
across the foot of the bed.
"Mahan was In charge," said Wolfe,
"and It was because of his orders that
I held Hoist while, they beat him."
Food Inspector is
on Job in Behalf
of Storage Goods
Grocerymeu are looking wise, for nn
Inspector of tho stato food commis
sioner's office Is In the city giving some
pertinent orders in regard to labeling
storage eggs so that customers may
know what they ure buying. The In
spector found many places In the city
where eggs had not yet been so laooleJ.
iHe not only ordered that .when storage
eggs are sold tho package be market
"storugo," hut also that the. bill of salo
contain tho word "storage" so that theie
can bo no mistake.
It Is tho new law under which he Is
making these orders. Tho storage law,
passed by the legislature last winter, re
quires the labeling of all storage goods
on the market. Also it' requires that the
container shall carry a record of the
length of tlmo the article has been" In
storage,
Thus It happens that this afternoon In
many grocery stores In the 0y can bo
seen egg crates bearing In bluo rubber
stamp print such words as these:
"DatoJn, May 22, 1P13."
, "Date out, September 8, 1913."
If the housewife Is deceived from now
on It Is cither because she has not looked
carefully, or because her grocer has dis
obeyed' the law and deceived her. There
are very few fresh eggs on the market.
They are so few In Omaha that
they are at a premium vand cannot be
had in nine tries out of ten: but In spite
of this fact very few cases bore tho
word "storage" before the food Inspector
made his debut tn Omaha.
