for Many Venrn.
Charles Splltz, 70 years old. lies flying
in his fisher cabin on the Missouri river
banks stoutly maintaining against police
and charitably Inclined persons the right
to look his last upon tho yellow flood by
whose banks he has spen: the greater
part of his life.
Splltz was the first carbago master ap
pointed In South Omaha, lie Is said to
have accumulated a Uttlo money and
ttllh It he retired to a point cast of
Child's point, where he built himself a
home In the river bank. The house Is
actually cut Into tho bank and Is n curi
osity In Its way. About twcnty-flvc years
ago Splltz became a fisherman and for
many years since has earned his living
by peddling in South Omaha tho fish
caught In the Missouri river at the foot
of O street He Is destitute and lives
alone. It Is nald that when Splits first
came to the Vicinity of South Omaha tho
Magic City was not thought of. tThero
was only tho broad prairies and the yel
low river sweeping by.
Splltz was then In tho prime of his
young manhood. He built himself n hut
on the bank of the river and there he
made his living and look his plcasuro In
nil the years since. Thcro are Ihoso
who say that Splltz cum from n good
family. Tho man, like many hermits,
seldom talked, except on business, He'
is said never to havo talked of himself,
but thoso who claim to know Insist that
ha would never allow a woman to cross
his door sill.
Splltz is now 70 years old. Latterly his
health has been poor and his need of
cdrnforts not to be found In tho river
cabin has increased. A day or so ago
one of tho fishermen living nearby told
Chief of Detectives James Sheahan of
the serious Illness of Splltz and of his
needs. Sheahan called at the cabin and
found the man In a dying condition.
Sheahan wanted to remove him to a
place moro comfortable, but when the
nged recluso learned of tho detective's
intentions he roused himself nnd pro
tested against the removni. He told the
detective that ho wanted to die within
night of tho river.
"Tho river Is my friend," Splltz told
the detective. "1 want o say good bye
to it wheh tho time comes, but don't
try to tako mo away. Let mo Us here
by tho river, Ycj can come and got me
later when the night comes."

citizens a quit claim deed If tho well was
sunk. ller"s attorney will show that the

Howell Comes Out
for Suffrage for
Women of Nebraska
It's mostly a matter of temperament,
this question ot woman's "rights," ac
cording to R. Boecher Howell, general
manager of the Metropolitan water dis
trict and president of tho Infantllo Men's
Suffrage league, who mado his maiden
speech for equal suffrage at a meeting
of tho Current Topics club at Pratrlo
Park club last night.
"Tompcrnment has a good deal to dc
with this question," Mr. Howell declared.
"Man's Inclinations tend to make him
say, 'Oh, let It go till tomorrow,' but
woman says do It now. This being tho
case women would. In my opinion, bring
n new efficiency Into politics.
"I do not hold that sentiment which
soems common to men God bice's the
women. If they want to vote, why lot
'cm vote. On tho other hand, I bellevo
In asking them to accept tho ballot, for
we need them.
"Woman Is necessary to the family
llfo and homo life Is the unit. The city
Is simply a larger unit of family life. It
tho woman Is necessary to the smaller
unit I maintain she Is equally essential
to tho proper llfo of tho larger unit Men
should recognize this fact thut women
can help It given tho power ot tho ballot
and they should reallzo that It Is not
bestowing a privilege on women to give
them equal suffrage with men, but that
the men will In reality be rendering them
selves a scrvlco."
Mrs. D. G, Craighead followed Mr.
Howell with a discussion of the suffrage
movement and tho question was then
thrown open for general remarks.
Mrs. Craighead asked the club to en
dorse tho suffrage movement. C. T.
Walker said the club could not under Its
constitution go on record In favor ot
or against any political movement. Then
arose a discussion as to whether tho euf
frago movement was political or not.
Chairman B. J. Scannell hold that It was.
His decision was appealed from, but tho
club sustained him, voting that it was a
political question and, therefore, could
not bo endorsed by the club.
After tho discussion Mrs. Craighead
said she owed the club nn apology for
asking for the endorsement. She said sho

ubo coarse language to set forth Its vir
tues.
It Is a medicine, but so mild and gentle
a medlclno that thousands of mothers
give It to tiny Infants, and yet. In a
slightly larger dose, It Is equally effective
for grown-upd. It is for any disorder ot
the stomach, .Iver or bowels, for con

dyspepsia no matter how severe, tor
biliousness, sour stomach, gas on the
stomach, headaches, drowsiness after

as the best ever held, cy the men Inter

At both tho Cheyenne and Salt Lake
