"So, yon taale It."
rtov. J. R. Beard of Cherry Hill Con-
srcKNtlonftl i hurrh and Itev. F. A. High,
dlMrlrt superintendent of the Antl-aaloon
league, ant faring each other acroaa a
email table In a booth at the Rome
hotel.
It was far after S oVIork. In front of
each reverend fentb.n.an aat a tea cup
full of foaming beer.
Mereaaary to Taate It.
"We'll have to taate It and moke sura
It's beer In order to get evidence if we
are to ask to have thla man's license re
voked," aald Itev. Thomas M. Evans of
Grace I'nlted Kvangellcnl church, who

Antl-ealeon liyague," remarked ono. "It
Is up to you to drmk."
And the ministerial caroiMal broke up
at the Rome hotel.
At tka Mlldea Kalnoata
Nest the elergymen repaired to the
aaloon and hotel of Milder Itroa., where
long after the hours when the law says
the ealoona should be cleaed they bought
beer and whisky. After all, so much will
not depend upon the teatimony of the
preachers In these caaea, for In each In-
atanoe they ba4 with them several follows
in the party who are not preachers and
who may fairly be presumed to know
the taate of beer and whisky. These fel
lows bought, taated, drank and hint a

They are deteetlves of the Antl-Snlaon

the matter ever aotnes to trial.
.But then, the reverend gentlemen
wanted to see for themselves lust ta see.
Bo Rev. K. A. High hired a competent
stenographer and had her make a long
Hat of datei and houra of the night when

at various places. ' This Hat ho has filed
with tlia city council. He has asked. In
the name of the Antl-Saloen league, that

all tickets and supplies, an announcement
having been Issued thst September IS the

Commissioner Withnell Reads Cost
Figures of Proposed System and
Enthusiasm Wanes.
BEES0N SENDS ENGINEER'S PLAN
Commissioner Withnell Is not aa
enthusiastic aa he was over the propo
sition of spending $150,000 for in
stallation of a standard fire alarm
system and $&0,D00 a year for main
tenance. The commissioner has Just received
from A. O. Beeson of the Nebraska
Inspection bureau copy of a lone; de
tailed statement made by E. R.
Townsend, hydraulic and electrical
engineer for the Natlom-i Board of
Underwriters.
Mr. Townsend recently appeared
before the city council and verbally
outlined what he maintained Omaha
must do to be saved from high in
surance rates.
Mr. Townsend sets forth nn estimate.
of flDO.OfiO ss the first coat of a fire alarm
system such as he outlines. In order to
come within his requirements and to ad
vance Omaha from 2'4 to second class
for Insurance rating, this alarm
system must be maintained In a fire
proof building, a competent electrical en
gineer must be In charge and two opera
tor present at all times. The present
telephone system of the fire department
to be maintained and the exchange lo
cated wtlh tha fire alarm hendquarters
Slore Conditions Named.
To further advance Omaha to V class
Mr. Townsend requires pumps for emer
gency service at Walnut Hill pumping
station, a rceervolr with capacity from
16.ooo.ono to ,000.0n". In southwestern rart
of the caty, and soventy-five more
hydrants In congested districts.
To bring the city within the H class
It Is further required that over 1100.000
bo expended for motor fire apparatus.
Amendment of building laws, additional
chief provision of the law. according to nspectorUt ,nd . ,ot of otner
local agents, that falls most heavily mlteT flfc,Rred necessary before lower

that 75 per cent of the crews must be
able to spesk the language of the com
manding officers. This, It Is asserted,
puts the control of the Pacific In the
hands of the Japanese.
The Pacific Mall had five big trans
pacific steamers. These, It Is announced,
have been sold to the Atlantic Trans
port enmpaay and will go Into the enat-
Insurance rates will bo given, according
to Mr. Townsend of Chicago.
Thinks Townaend Aaka Too Blooh.
Commissioner Withnell believes Mr.
Townaend Is going rather strong
"I believe we should have more fire
alarm boxes, and it may be' we should
have a new standard fire alarm system.
The chief Insists It Is necessary, and t
slieady have Mated we Intend to install
em trade. With the passing of the Psclflc more motor apparatus, but this fellow is

has been agreed that 2,0t la a reason

The city wilt Insist upoit tha Jitney men

Undian Chief 's Pass
Comes Back to U. P.
The Union Paflclf passenger department
has received a reminder of the days when
railroad passes were ss common as grass
and as easy as hay fever to get. The
reminder Is one of the passes Issued by
th company, bearing tha number Sfil and
good during the year P&. It is signed by
W. Snyder, who at that time was gen
eral superintendent
The railroad pass that comes back to
the Union Pacific aa a rello was Issued
to Chief Washakie of the Shoshone In
dians. It seems that Chief Washakie dur
ing the early days of the construction
rendered some valuable services to the
Union Pacific and to reward him, he was
given an annual pass over the system, j
that then consisted of a single track line j
from Omaha out into Wyoming.
It Is doubtful If Chief Washakie ever .
used the pass, for It Is bright and clean, J
though the Ink used In filling it out Is i
a little faded. It seems that years ago,
prior to his death, together with some 1
other relics. Chief Washakie turned the j
pass over to Judge Carter of Uinta
county, Wyoming. The Judge was the
father of Mrs. Maurice Gibson, pure food
Inspector of Wyoming. Upon the death
of her father the pass came Into her j
possession, and recently in looking
through some of the effects, she camo j
across It and has sent It to the Union '
Pacific. I
