Sherlock Holmes may have drawn vig
orously at hi pipe while unraveling the
knotty problems of lxmdon crime; Steve
Malonoy may have laid aside his stoey
and frowned forbiddingly while he con
templatod the mystery of who fired the
bullet Into the brick wall; but for real
detective work the laurel falls on F. W.
Irlc6ll. r. youns lawyer In the Omaha
National Bank building. And ho docs not
Hilvtrtlfe as a dcctcctlvc. cither, lie Is a
lawyer, and neither smokes a Holmes
pipe or takes shots In the arm to stlmu.
late his brain convolutions.
Hut he sat right in his office Monday
and, without even llchtlns a cigarette,
told h nurse of the Itoselle sanitarium
just exactly where she could find Mrs.
Sleeper, a patient who had run away
from the sanitarium.
Where do you suppose I could find
that svoman?" said tho nurse, who knew
Mr. Drircoll well hnd who was In trouble
because she was sent out to find the es
caped patient and hadn't the slightest
Idea where she might locate her.
"Well, how should I know where to
find the old lady?" queried Drlacoll some
what Impatiently.
"Well. I thousht maybe you could sug
gest something," replied the nurse, "for
you cannot know less about It than 1 do."
"Well, If that is the case I'll try to help
you. Is she opt to bo a little flighty at
times? Well, then, the first place I
should look would be In the city library,
for if bunch of queer people hang out
there In the afternoons. I found i man
there not long ago that was plowing
through ponderous volumes trying to
trace his ancestry to George Washing
ton." Jast Left the Library.
At the library the nurse was told the
woman had Just been there asking
whether .William Allen White was
smooth shaven or whether he still wore
his mustache. Hut she had just stepped
out when she had learned theso Impor
tant facts about White.
Tho nurse came back to Drltcoll.
"We'll try the dentist," he advised, when
he found that the woman had been hav
ing some dental work done. She tried the
dentist, but the woman had not even
been there. Dack to Drlscoll'a office went
the nurse, somewhat discouraged, .
Then tho mighty Driscoll began his
rat detective work. "What kind of
clothes does she wearT" he asked. "Aro
they in good condition or are they rag
ged. Has she a good hat o'rNa poor one?
Are her shot and stockings good? Is
she warmly dressed for this weather?"
He was told that the woman was
dressed well enough except that her shoes
were poor.
The mighty Drlacoll looked up sharply,
"Go to the Brandcis shoe department at
oace," he said. "Lose no time," The
little aiifse hurried.
Hre she found her with a new pair of
skoaa Just preparing to have them
charged.
The mighty Drtscoll smiled and took the
elevator to the street, where he bought
himself a stogy.
No Successor to
Guild Yet Named
J. M. Guild, former commissioner of
the Cemmcrlcal club, left this after
noon for Dayton, O., where he takes
the position of executive secretary of
the Greater Dayton association of that
place', Mr. Guild's family will not ac
company him at this time, aa the beauti
ful home In the Field club district has
not yet been sold. Until that is sold tho
family will live here.
The successor to Mr. Oulld in the posi
tion here has not yet been chosen. The
indications are that the special com
mittee at work on this task has been
loin some w6rk lately, and "will be
likely to make a recommendation to the
executive committee soon. At the meet
ing1 yesterday a great many of the can
illdates were eliminated, so that It is
expected the coming meetings may result
In something definite.

LINEN CARGO DAMAGED AND
BOUGHT BY A LOCAL FIRM
When the steamship Patricia came Into
New York harbor on October 14 a por

of alleged water damage. An Immenst
shipment of linens, stored in a portion
of the vessel not designed for carrying
merchandise, became slightly wet In
transit After tho goods were refused
they wet sold at a 40 per cent reduction.
It Is a matter ot local Interest that an
Omaha firm bought the linens In the
stock the very day they landed.

WINTER TRAVEL YERYHEAYY
Many Will Qo to the Panama Canal
This Year.
NEW CRUISE TO THE ORIENT
Following Veir the. World Tour Will
Include Trip Throtijth Pnnamn
t'nnal nnl Visit to Frisco
Kipnaltlnn.
The volume of tourist travel this winter
promises to pass all previous records.
Thin rcmarknble winter migration will
1 noun begin In all parts of the country
and follow the popular routes In search
of milder climates. Winter cruising Is
no longer an expensive luxury as In (he
past, hut hn.i been brought within the
reach of people of moderate means and
leisure. A number of attractive pleasure
cruises have been arranged, varying In
length from fifteen days to three months,
which will carry thetraveler quickly
and luxuriously from bleak northern win
ter weather to tropical waters.
The most popular cruise this winter will
doubttesi be to the West Indies and the
Panama canal. Now that the canal Is
practically completed and visitors may
see the great locks In actual operation,
thousands of travelers who have delayed
visiting the Isthmus wilt make the cruise.
This season tourists will have the op
portunity to cruise to the West Indies
and the Isthmus of Panama on larger
and more luxurious steamers than ever
before. A series of sir cruises from New
Tork to the West Indies and the Panama
canal, varying In length from fifteen to
twenty-nine days, la announced by the
Hamburg-American line. Two of these
cruises will be made by the steamship
Amcrlka, one of the most famous of the
transatlantic steamers, which Is equipped
with lllU-Carlton restaurant, gymnasium
and electric elevators. The fact that the
Amerlka as' well as the famous cruising
steamer Victoria Louise will be used In
this cruising service In southern waters
shows the wonderful advance In this
passenger traffic.
An entltely new cruise wilt be made
t,hl season, Of about three- months dura
tion, through tho Mediterranean, visiting
the orient and India. The cruise will be
made by the world famous cruiser, the
steamship Cleveland, The tourist will
.visit tho popular resorts of the Mediter
ranean, pass through the Sue canal nnd
the Ited sea, and 'proceed o India, where
ample time will be allowed for inland
trips, when the steamer will return to
New York. The grand cruise de luxe
will be the trip around the world which
will be made next year by way of the
Panama canal. -The cruise will be made
by the, steamship Cleveland, which will
sail from New York, and, after passing
tnrougH the Isthmus, will call at Ban
Francisco for the opening of the Panama-
Paclflo exposition on Its way around the
world.
Mediterranean Sea
the Grand Object of
Mid-winter Travel
Eminent traveler say the grand 6b-
Ject of travel I to eee the shores of. the
Mediterranean. On these shores were
the four great empires of the world? the
Assyrian, the 'Persian, the Grecian and
the Roman. All our religion, almost all
our law. almost all our arts, almost all
that sets us above the savages, has come j
to u from the shores of the ' Mediter
ranean,
Though before the flight of the cen
turies Its galleyed fleet of carnage and
cqnquest have yielded their sway, the
storied lands of the Mediterranean can
never lose their wealth of Interest for the
people of alt time. The balmy climate,
the multitude of wonder on every aiBe,
the relics ot Jhe ages and the undying
monument ot a great past, all speak elo
quently of the empires once clustered
about this sapphire sea rich and power
ful states, of whose war-scarred high
ways and byway Cicero haa aald:
"Wherever we walk I history."
The winter cruises of the different
steamship lines sailing from New York
and Boston, carry their thousands of
voyagers; and the subtle charms of a
cruise on one of these superb, steady
ships, steaming In this favored region of
fair winds and smooth seas, remain ever
pleasant memory,
Mr. Shields ot the II. C. Shields' tourist
agency, JU South Fourteenth street.
Woodmen of the World building, say
their cruises for this season Include
Madeira, Gibraltar, -Algiers, Monaco,
Otnoa, Naples and Alexandria, Egypt.
Passenger are thus afforded a more com
prehensive view than otherwise would bo
possible of this ever-Interesting section
ot the globe, where today meets yester
dsy face to face, and where, In very
fact, our modem civilisation secured. Its
first great Inspiration.

Speaking of
Reputation
If any of your friends ask you:
"Say, I wonder what sort of clothes
thl fellow Brooks carries, anyway?"
Just tell them that Brooks features
"Society Brand" clothes, "Strouse &
Brow." clothe and "Stern-Mayer"
clothes. Then, too. Brook was al
ways shrewd enough to buy other
nationally famous lines for 1 than
the other Omaha dealers paid for
them, Just now, for Instance,
"Brooks" Is offering his "at cost"
Inducement on a line of clothing pur
chased from a maker whose product
1 handled right now In Omaha by
another dealer, "Brooks," in order to
be allowed to cut the price in the
first lllace. was compelled to cut the
labels from the clothe, but the bill
of sale is here, and If you buy the
ara clothes from another Omaha
establishment at a fancy figure It's
your fault.
Clothier may rant; clothier may
prognosticate and advocate; the fact
remains, nevertheless, that this is the
greatest clothing event ever offered
to Omahans and the Omahaii know it
