Nomineees in M, and
M; Contest Making a
Very Good Showing
The nominees In the M. & M. voting
contest, who live In the outside towns,
are making a remarkably good showing.
The free trip to Chicago Is the chief in
centive. Just who will comprise the jolly
party that leaves Omaha on this delight
ful trip Is hRrd to predict. So far no one
of tho young ladles competing has a
"walk-away." Whoever wins will have
the satisfaction of knowing that the time
has been well spent. This outing will
combine pleasure with educational sight
seeltur. tThodrtiwill bo enectully that-
eroncd,f and "rid effort will be spared to
make tills trip one of tho events ,of a lit?
time.
The central committee of the Ancient
Order of United Workmen has been put
tins In somo hard work recently. The
result of these efforts Is to be seen In
the large number of votes cast last week.
McKlnley lodge, B'nat B'lith, at Its
meeting last night pledged Its members
to work for the J730 cash premium. The
Ladles' auxllllary could use it very nicely.
This is a new society In tho contest with,
which the other organizations will havo
to reckon.
The general interest amoiig organiza
tions is increasing. Tho fair, clear-cut
sales plan on which Tho Bee's M. & M.
voting contest Is modeled, appeals to
those who have Investigated. The fact
that not a cent is required to enter the
contest not a cent of extra charge on
the goods that 'carry a voting value
place this big sales plan In a class by
itself. Fairness to all and an equal op
portunity to each nominee, Is tho slogan
that has made the M. & M. voting con
test popular with tho buying public of
Omaha and tho surrounding territory.
A number of important changes 'will
be made this week In the voting value ot
th4 various products. The new values
will be effective Monday.
The services of tho contest manager aro
at the disposal of nominees from 8:30 a.
m. until 8 P. m. every week day except
ing Monday. Tho office Is 224 Bee bulldj

EVIDENCE ISCOHTRADICTORY
Saloon Keeper Charges Anti-Saloon
League with False Testimony.
WHISKY NOT BOUGHT THERE
Bloom limUtu He Never Sold the
Dranil of lilqnor "Which Audits
of I.eajrne Say They Par
chnsed in Saloon.
Flatly contradictory ovwence was of
fered befora tho city council, sitting a
an excise board to hear tho protests of
the Calvary Baptist church and the Antl
Saloon leaguo on tho granting ot a liquor
license to Joel Bloom, 1402 North Twenty
fourth street. E. II. Vlgg and Li. II
Wllleford, for the Protestants, said under
oath that they purchased Sunnybrook rye
at the Bloom saloon after 8 o'clock. Un
dcr oath Bloom said he did not now sell,
ndr had ho sold for a year, Sunnybrook
ryo or any of tho other brands of whisky
offered as evidence.
By unanimous vote the council, at the
afternoon session, declared the evidence
did not sustain the protest and the
license was ordered Issued. Attorneys for
the Anti-Saloon league gave notice ot
appeal.
J. A. Maxwell appeared as a witness
for the protestant Bloom and his brother,
Peto Bloom, formerly his bartender, were
the only witnesses summoned by the ap
plicants.
Is a Landmark.
This saloon has been at 1402 North
Twenty-fourth street for nearly twenty
years, according to tho testimony, and
there has been a protest from the Cal
vary Baptist church nearly every year,
Bloom grew angry on tho Btand, charg
ing the representatives of the Antl
fluloon league with' "telling- the biggest
lies he had over heard."

rectly upon tho ache, and like magic, re
lief comes. "St. Jacobs OH" is a harmless
backache, lumbago and sciatica cure

Besides the children from Bancroft,
many came from Castellar and St. Phllo
mena's schools, and enjoyed tho exhibit
thoroughly and after their own fashion.
