Other employees bad meanwhile, mounted desks, radia tors, tables and any other place that promised refuge from the teeth of the maddened animal. Finally a re hot poker which had been left sticking in a stove, by one of the panic stricken occu pants, waa snatched forth by 1 .arson and thrown at the brute. The poker had the desired effect and the animal ian from the place, frothing at tho rrouth. Jack Byrne Bitten. Proceeding south on Tenth tho animal tilt Jack Byrne of the Byrne-Hammer company aa ' he stood waiting for a car at Tenth and Howard streets. From here It veered directly across the street, and as the door of the saloon in the Howard hotel waa opened from within, dashed In side and immediately attacked Henry Rogers, the bartender, who received a slash from the animal's teeth on his light leg. Meanwhile on top of the'bar were huddled four or five oustomers. Rogers, undaunted by his wound, drew a revolver and fired three shots at the dog as it dashed out of the door. From the saloon the dog entered the open front door of the Roach-Kastner Commission house, where Roach, who was bending over a box, first became aware of lta presence when It leaped on hla back and ripped a long gash in his over coat with lta teeth. With a small piece of board Roach then fought the animal for probably ten minutes, receiving fif teen separate wounds, while hla clothing was literally torn to shreds. Raekley Kills Brute. Almost exhausted from his strenuous efforts. Roach would have been In a bad way had not Art Raekley, an employe, entered the room and Joined the battle. With a hand axe Ratley made a vicious swing at the animal, but missed. With a enarl of rage the brute with bared fangs crouched a moment an the floor, then leaped directly at Rackley'a throat. The heavy edge of the axe did Its work. Meanwhile headquarters had dispatched Police Officer Jim Murphy, armed with one of the new shotguns provided by the department. Although eight people were bitten by the dog, Roach is the only one confined to his home by reason of his experience. The head was sent to the Pasteur Insti tute at Chicago. 1 ?

MALONK. t AERIAL ACTIVITY THE FEATURE OF DAY'S WAR NEWS (Continued from Page One.) Jim Has Iron in His Blood and Fire in His Eye . Mayor Dahlman Is expected to arrive from Excelsior Springs during the day, though he will not appear at the city hall until Monday. The mayor sends word that he was never In fitter form In his life. A fort night at the salubrious Missouri Ponce de Leon has sent the fire flaming to his eye, toned up the Iron In his blood and plumed him right for- the big fight soon to begin. When the mayor left Omaha some of his friends thought he looked fagged and urged him not to come back till he felt himself fit for the task f the city cam paign. Now he Is fit. He took a whirl at that little Excelsior Springs wet and dry set-to, pulling the wets through at the last and it gave him good exercise. While It may be some little time even yet before the city election activity be comes strenuous, next week la almost suro to see some quiet laying of wires by the Honorable James Caruso Dahlman and hla Intimates, for they real I re that noth ing short of the wisest manipulation will do tola time. l.ipno which 1m an Important junction on the roads from the Vistula region northward Into Kast Prussia, Austrian and tiermnna Confer. Conferences between Austrian and German leaders as to the future con duct of the war against Russia and Servla are probably beginning today in Germany. Baron Burlan, the Austro Hungarlan minister of foreign affairs, before leaving Vienna for Germany, was closeted for a long time with Kmpcrjr Francis Joseph and Count Tloia, the Hungarian premier, both of whom are described as seriously concerned over the sealing up of Hungary by Russian forces. The cause of the Rrltlsh Merchant steamer Durward, sunk by a German submarine, continues to occupy Brltlsn public attention, and the feeling that this la the beginning of submarine activity against British commerce is reflected in the orders sent to two British steamera not to sail from the Hook of Holland until further orders. Allien Occupy I, a Bassee. PARIS, Jan. 23. "It Is reported that La Bassee, thirteen rglles southwest of Lille, Is now occupied by the ' allies," says the St. Omer correspondent of the Matin today. In his story of the fighting In that region the correspondent says: "After concentrating strong forces In the region of Festubert, a few miles northwest of La Bassee, the Germans on Monday night tried to force the British lines. They made their attack in massed companies, but the British kept up withering fire and resisted with courage and energy. Several attacks were de livered in a few houra without any suc cess whatever, the Germans being re pulsed every time with heavy loss, despite, their numerical superiority. "The British positions In the region of Festubert have been reinforced In antici pation of fresh attacks. "On Wednesday afternoon there was furious fighting between La Bassee and Festubert, resulting in a sensible advance of the allied front, and it is now reported that the former town is in possession of the allied troops."

Creighton of thi city. Ed Malone is one of the best known young men of Omahe, both in business and social circles, being a member of tho Commercial club and Omaha Field club and prominent In the Associated Retailers of Omaha and other organisations. "I regret very much to leave llayden Bros., where my associations have been most pleasant, but I consider this a splendid opportunity for advancement which 1 must accept," said Mr. Malone. "Yes. I am blad to say that Mr. Malone will Join our torce February 1," said George Brandels. "He will be ono of my assistants In an executive capacity aa well as our credit manager, taking full charge of our entire credit system. I cons'der this one of tha most Important positions in a large retail establishment like ours, as it requires not only an Inti mate knowledge of credit lines, but a broad-minded policy, coupled with u forceful, tactful and pleasing personality. Mr. Malone possesses these qualifications to a marked degree, and many others that will make him a most valuable assistant to me, and J can only repeat that 1 am very glad he Is to be connected with our house. He needs no introduction to the public of Omaha, as he is well kn.-wn and has a host of friends throughout this part of .the country." Daniel Holds Over White Slave Case Under Advisement "Ellwood saya to me, 'She's my wife.' "I says to him, 'Well, she's mine too, but you can have her.' " This was part of the testimony that Carl Blomberg gave at his hearing on a charge of having taken Mrs. Dora Ell wood to Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, Canada, contrary to the provisions of the Mann white slave act. He swore that he wan married to her June 9, 1912, by Justice of the Peace Clai borne. This she denied. She said she had been married to a man named Heller from Toledo, but was di vorced from him. The stories of defendant and complain ant were so diametrically opposite and the maze of alleged relations, marriages and divorces so Intricate, that Commis sioner Daniel at the conclusion of the hearing took the case under advisement and will decide Monday whether or not to hold Blomberg for the grand Jury, Conductor Schantz Run Over and Killed James H. Schants, conductor on the Union Pacific train which carries rail road workmen from Omaha to the Coun cil 'Bluffs yards was Instantly killed yesterday when he was run over by his train, which he had Just surrendered to a relief crew. Schantz .stepped off th rear of the train in the Bluffs and sig nalled the new crew to back up. The presumption is that he thought he had sufficient time to cross the track before the train got in motion, but miscalculated and was run over. His head, neck and chest were crushed and he died Instantly. Schants was 50 years of age and had been In the employ of the Union Pacific seven years. He reBiried at 02 Ninth avenue and Is survived by a widow and three daughters. Bar Association Kicks on New Jury Commissioner Bill A number of tho members of the Omaha Bar association met with the municipal affairs committee of the Com mercial club at noon, when the Jury com missioner bill was gone over and dis cussed. A large percentage of the Omaha Bar association members are not satis fied with the draft of the bill that finally went to the legislature on this subject The association discussed the bill over and over In Its various meetings during the fall and winter and now they claim that someone "put one over on them" by introducing a bill that was not satisfac tory to them. BLANCH RING COMING TO THE 0RPHEUM SOON Blanch Ring will be at the Orpheum In two weeks, according to word Just re ceived by Manager Byrne.

It holds out a solace, a sub lime promise of happiness and lasting peace and finally "The Brotherhood of Man" that every sane person desirea. Cannot Believe War Will Last Three Y ran More. It only remains for this war to end for the work of this triumph to be begun. It is predicted that the war will last for at leist three years, but I cannot believe 1 am persuaded It la too appalling. Hut come soon, or come late, let ua In dulge In the bright hope that It will mark the end of such crimes. Special attention ehould be given to the gentlemen who. of late, have been try ing to scare u with absurd stories of un preparedness, possible Invasion and the like. I liken them to the man who was afraid to have his home without having a lightning rod down his back because ho heard that a man waa once hit by a bolt while walking In the street There la no greater chance of our republic being successfully Invaded than there la of the gentleman strolling without a lightning rod being stricken. As I stated In an article I wrote re cently for tho Independent, It la prepara tion for wr that brings on war. Two nations are continually preparing for ! "the war that may come." They build . and build and build, until their armies ' and navies grow to an enormous size, j They become so Imbued with military or i naval spirit that they bristle up like two bulldogs at any fancied wrong. It Is only a question of time before they are tear-' ing at each other's throats. The present war is an exact Illustration of this. Mil- ! ton has it, "What can war but endless ' wars still breed?" It Is certain that , "preparation" begets "preparation." Not one of the great nations ha the ' slightest desire to be other than friendly with the United States. We are a friend to all; an enemy of none. They could gain nothing by a war with us. nor would we by a war with them. We have 1 no territorial ambitious, and only desire to be left alone. As for this foolish talk of an Invasion, that Is an Impossible contingency. Im agine any country being able to success fully bring enough troops to accomplish anything worth while from a military standpoint from a point S,000 miles off and attack a hundred millions of people? How Inradlna; Army Could Be Forced to Surrender. I have always said that If at any time any country was foolish enough to at tempt Invasion the best possible plan would be to make their landing as easy as possible, point out to them the best possible roads, and allow them to go as far as they desired to go Inland. Then warn them to look out. and turn a million of our 16,000,000 of mllltla loose upon them. Getting In would be easy, but how to get out would result In surrender. There Is no other country In the world so well equipped to repel Invasion or make it so hot for an enemy ahould he land as to make him exceedingly sorry he ever tried it Our men are brought up to know how to handle a gun. Not so much in the big cities, of course, but then It Is the men In the country who would count the most In .war. Some time of the year every farmer, hla sons and his workmen go hunting. They all know how to handle firearms; this Is our absolute safeguard. "Monroe Doctrine Obsolete Day o( raefalneaa Past." Look at the difference in Europe. The farmer and farm workmen are so poor that few of them can afford a gun and license. - Therefore cornea the need of great standing armies involving huge eg. penditure that drains and saps the coun try's vital resources, A possible cause for this country going to war has been suggested In a violation of the Monroe doctrine. The Monroe doctrine Is obsolete. Its It has cone. The South American re publics Ix'lleve tliry are well able to take care of themselves, and so tiny are. 8hou,i nome foreign nation Interfere with one of the South American repunllcs It Is certain that all the olhrr republics would rise up against It. I do not any that the United Ptaot"s would si and Idly and not give them a helping hnmt If they needed It to repel an Invader. Hut 1 don't think they would need It. Cltlaena of the United States, and. In fact, of any coun try, should not take the extravaaant statements of military and naval men too seriously.

I do not blame them for upholding their profession and trying to Impress the peo ple with it but one should read between the line, and realize that moat of their statements, are apt to be atrlr.tly pro fessional. The hlng to do Is not to think about war, but shout the stopping of war, and the bringing about of everlasting peace. It was In 19-16 that I first suggested the 1-eanuo of Peace In my rectorial address at Ft Andiwwa nareeratty. At that time few would believe that a vital necessity existed for a court at the world. It took this war to prove to tha world, that otvtlrcatloii'a path of progress can never hope to be smooth whlla nations pile up Immense arm amenta and growl and snarl at each other oven . in time of peace behind bristling baynnot anl menacing cannon.

"Button, button, whose got the but ton? must be a simple game beside try ing to find out where the money in the republican campaign fund spent in this county In the last election cume from and went to. If you don't believe It, read this report, made by Frank A. Kennedy, who , is one of the also-rans for state senator, of his efforts to satisfy his curiosity: "Election Commissioner Moor hem said he did not know anything about it and, after a search, said he could not find It. Mrs. Flnley, chief clerk, said the report had been filed and withdrawn. Mr. Os trom, deputy, informed Mr. Moorhead that it was his belief the report hud not been filed. Frank Dewey, county clerk, and deputies, have received no report. The old thing acts like a racy divorce court petition. The more It hides the more I want to see it. I hope it won't be necessary to get It through George Mag ney'a office." to do likewise, and that it (Germany) took thla action In its own defense. I do not believe Germany ha ever officially stated anything of tli kind. There la no doubt who committed that crime. I am very sorry Indeed for Ger many that the military decided upon it. The chancellor bodly admitted In his speech, to the Reichstag that the treaty had been violated. But let us retrain from any further dis cussion of the blame attached to this worst of wars. Each side has Its ex planations and excuses, and each side thinks it is In the light, and there is little to be gained by arguing about it. The important matter to consider Is the mak ing it imporslble to have any more wars, big or little. A lot of people, no doubt, consider world peace put on a permanent basis a myth of the dreamer, or else so remote as to be hardly worth considering seri ously In these war-like times. I know that many consider the proposed court of the world a gigantic plan of such magnitude and Involving so many various problems that it will taRa centuries to bring about Its accomplishment This is a totally mistaken idea. In fact, It is simplicity ltaelf. To begin with, this court of the world does not have to Include a representation of all the nations. It requires only three or four of tho chief or strongest powers to agree to make it Impossible for world peace to be broken. "I. 8. of the World" Is taraegle Peace Plaa. It is ridiculous to supposo that these few powers would not work in harmoni ous unison. Take our own United States, for instance. Here we have forty-eight countries, that we call states. Each state takes care of its own affairs, but all are governed In national and International questions by one national congress In Washlgton. This congress alone has the power to declare war, or make peace. It has been suggested to me that the court of the world would virtually bring about a "I'nlted (itates of the World." That is Just what 1 intend working to secure. Time might have to be taken in admitting some of the "states." but the great majority are quite fit at the present time to be members of this world's union.
