"Many who wear glasses could dls

made him known to the police In many

his schemes only for timely work here
upon ' the part of local police and the
detectlvo bureau of tho Union Pacific

He was arrested with his victims while
on a Union Paclfla train, as It pulled
Into Omaha on a warrant Issued against
him by the United States government,
charging Impersonation of a federal of

reported to tho railroad headquarters
and when railroad detectives here and
Pollco' Officer Jenson took him from tho

Lorlng of tho same city, with their four
small children, traveling with him.

All wero brought to headquarters and
Questioned, 'and thcro Hammond not only
confessed to having passed the $13 worth

for $357 In Scattlo also, and had bought
all tho railroad tickets with tho money.
Newspaper clippings found In his pock-
tbook told .of. his being wanted In Sac

from an Odd Fellows lodge there, and
thcr clippings told of other crimes and
of a past criminal record.

an a secret service man, and, offered to
Ive hint a good Job In Chicago. When
Lorlng 6bjccted on account of his family.
he asked him to bring the family along'
nnd hlroa maid to take care of the chll-
ren. This was done, and Miss Lantz
was engaged to net as the caretaker of
the children. Arrived In Chicago, it was

Tho confldenco tho clrl and the mar

markable. Ho showed them telegrams
addressed to himself, ln cipher, and
which he said wero Instructions to kill
certain Japaneso who knew too much
about this country's military affairs.
This tain was believed, and when the
train pulled Into Omaha and Hammond
was preparing to pass another worthless
check, slgnod by himself. h)' t'eld the
family to pose as counterfeiters, under
arrest. Then he told other passengers
thot Mr. .and Mrs. Lorlng and the' girl'
were counterfeiters nnd that he. as a
federal, officer, had coptured them and
was taking them to prison. This much
established, -he would have had ' no dif

According to one clipping found ln
Hammond a possession, his criminal

later has been In tnltentlartes In Illi

Ha served ono term In Leavenworth,
Kan., for impersonating a federal officer
several years ago.
When the realisation that his game

which amply made up for tho absenco of
Miss Thurston.
Mme. Mctzger has a great, deep, glori
ous contralto voice, which Is remarkable
for Its beauty of quality and width of
range. It is full of certain rich, dark
shades 'which give It an Irreslstable ap
Ieal, and which add a pathos to tho tone
In tho songs of serious vein, which Is
wonderfully effective a sort of back
ground of deep foliage, against which tho
tonal picture stands forth all tho moro
clearly In Its harmonious setting. Sho
has wonderful hrcath control, and sings
with tho utmost cf.se and assurance. Her
voice Is evenly developed throughout Ha
wldo range, and Is capablo of the many
nuances the artist may desire. She Is
Intensely dramutlc, and her singing - Is j
masterful and artistic In every way. Her
work throughout showed seriousness,
sincerity and faith In tho highest Ideals.
Her program was well selected, and un
usually well suited to tho voice. An Im
passioned Interpretation of tho recitative
nnd aria "Ah, Mon Flls" from "Le
Profct," by Meyerbeer, opened 'tho pro
gram and was followed by tho "Happlscho
Ode," by Brahms. She sung thin with a
nobility and reposo which Is seldom
equalled.
The two Schubert songs wero pro
foundly Impressive, nnd tho charming
"Volkslled" by Weber, which closed the
first group, brought for an encore, tliu
morry "Untcr die Mechandcrbaum," by
Hollaender, which was sung with a
whole-hearted Joyousncss delightful to
hear.
The second group opened with three
songs In Kngtlsh, "The Cross," by Harriot
Ware, tho wondc.rfulty dramatlo "Cry of
Ilachel," by Salter, In' which tho heart
breaking anqtilsh of the mother was
thrilllngly expressed ami "Mother

upon .a program It was very successful.

In her own German was a raro treat, and
a valuable lesson In clarity. "L'Houro du

of tho program Mine. Metzgor not only
lived up to tho reputatjon which sho Jiad
established, 'but 'oven surpassed herself
In It. "Tho Threo Gypsies," by Liszt was
given brilliantly, and tho beautiful "Ich
Trago Melne Mlnno," by Strauss, which
followed, was so full of tender sentiment,
and was sung with such a beautiful
legato, and wealth of feeling, that It was
graciously repeated. "Traum Durch dlo

now song "Der Arbeltsrnann," Brcchcr

America is Doing More for the Advancement of Scientific Cookery
Than Any Other Nation on the Globe
Administration "Economy Book"
Is Another Long Step in the Right Direction
IN 17th Century Boston the Puritan ladies used to meet in Ann Hutchinson's home and
discuss "burning questions of the day." Here we find one of the first attempts to co
.uierailonn Pa,si?C from one woman to the other the methods and plans which each ono found most
suitable for her needs, easiest to execute and most satisfactory in results. The Administration
liconomy Book is the modern idea of co-operation since it combines the experience of 450 representa
tive women and is written with the one idea of making tha average housewife more efficient. All
women would know what these women know if their opportunities had been equal, but the experience
ot the authors goes far beyond locality, and reaches out even to the boundaries of other countries.
THE collective influence of this wide experience will be felt for all future time in the life
of the nation and this book will stand as a towering monument of industry, economy
..... ond efficiency. The French women have long been famous for making money go far. From
childhood they are trained in all the department of that universal and most exacting business of
wtaien, the spending of money the making of ends meet This demands just as much industry and
care as any other business. Great credit is due the women of France, but the educated American
woman of wide experience is without a superior as a discriminating purchaser. Her appreciation of
style and quality is unmatched by any other nation, and America has done more for the advancement
of Scientific Cookery than has any other country on the globe.
Tho high cost of living is traced to causes which cannot be corrected by politician or law makers
and therefore it is high Urn that the problem be attacked from a different angle.
