IS ROBBED WHILE HE PUTS
MONEY IN TABC0LLECTI0N
To be robbed while dropping money Into
the collection bos for "Billy" Sunday
waa lb experience of Waiter McCuna,
the .blind boy who sells pencils and
papers on Sixteenth street.
No, he was not robbed In the Taber
nacle. He left hie bualnvas In charge of
a "frknd" while he went Into th
Tabernacle on on of the Uutt tlaya of tha
meeting. He was selling The Ut'( spe
cial edition of Sunday sermon. He asked
the "friend to sell them for htm while
be went Into the tabernacle and heard
Billy BunJay and contribute his "widow's
mtut" to the evangelist.
Whca the collection bos came round,
McCuna dug deep, and scratched hard
through his pockets to rake up t& cents.
"It's sure worth that," he said te hlmsolf.
when be had heard the sermon.
Then he went back to his "friend' who
bad been selling the papers.
The fricsnd waa gone. Th papers were
guns. And what money the friend had
ftolluctad from the sale of the papers was
gone with him.

ESTABROOK SAYS
WE HUSTBE READY
Ridicule! Wilion'i "Too Frond to

Weaker Than Diihwater.
SPEAKS THREE TIMES HERE
Ridiculing the unprepnrednena of
the United Etateg to defend IU rights
tod poagpgalons, and the "peace at
any price" and "too proud to fight"
.ollcleg of Bryan and Wilson, Henry
D. EsUbrook. at the University club
at noon, declared that the country Is
"weaker than dishwater," that Amer
ica's ships and suns bad better bn
thrown onto the scrap pile, unless
r-dded to tremendously, and that we
nust forthwith spend lots of money
for defense.
He is prominently mentioned as a
I-osnlbllity for the republican presi
dential nomination, and has recently
r.ecome nationally famous for bis
strong statements on the need of pre
paredness for national defense. He
is a former Omahan.
Rack for the Other.
"It ta no longer a question of 'every
man tor hlmaelf and the devil take thai
hind moat,' " Mr. Eatabrook aald. "The
maxim by which every man may now
aafely live and die, a maxim of Invariable
and Inevitable succesa, ta "Each for the
other, and alt together."
"This declaration of Interdependence
holds good becauae our people, nation and
deailny are one. Nobody ran Injure or
help any one of us without affecting all
of us the same way. Therefore, the middle
weit as well as all other parts of tho
United Bute, atanda ready to fight
against possible foreign eiiemle.
"Only Meallats dream of world peace
through treaties of disarmament, negotia
tions of diplomacy and adjudications of
International court." he continued. He
lauded the principles upon which the na
tion was founded, and declared king to
be "monstroaltk. conjured out of pande
monium the idols of heathendom made
manifest In the flesh." Therefore, he
argued, America would never conaent to
being ruled by kings, and mankind will
never realise tho dream of the parliament
of man and the fedoratlon of the world,
until kings are forever banished from the
eatth.

Mr. Eatabrook referred to W. J,
Bryan
as a "wandering voice," in whose wis
dom he did not believe, and whose sin
cerity he did not question, because it was
not worth arguing.
"But nonrealatance would be better
than half-preparedness," he conceded.
"We had better scrap all our ships and

"Wilson's too proud to fight' Idea Is
the absurd and puerile notion of an es
timable but mistaken gontleman, and It
Is murderous stupidity to think that a
cltlsen soldiery could defend the country
against the trained fighters of Asia or
Europe.
"Our duty Is to defend against both
machinations and attacks. We are permit
ted no alternative. We must forthwith
spend money for defense, and lots of It.
We must know that we are safe from
even the temptation of attack. Our peace
and future happineas depends upon this
asst. ranee.
"In the words and with the experience
of a statesman, soldlor and patiiLt, IVash-
Ington said. To prepare for war la one of
the moat effective ways of preserving
peace. A free people should not only be
armed, but disciplined. To that end a uni
form and well adjusted plan Is requis
ite.' "
Asserting- that the recommendations of
military experts should bn followed snd
that the sole purpose should not be con
quest, but only self-defense, the speaker
said the United States should start prepa
rations at once, "without much debut
and regardless of coat"
Waata Blsj Navy.
"It means, obviously, a big navy," he
said, "a navy aa big as aiy navy la the
world, with every flying, diving, amphlbl
i-us auxiliary that can add to Its effective
ness, and with munitions and means for
at least one year's campaign always In
cold storage.
' And It means sill the officers and men
neceaaary, men of brains and technical
skill, to get whom the government must
outbid ths market. Insurance against at
tack wll cost money, but It Is worth the
price."
further outlining his Ideas for da-
fense, Mr. Estobrouk said that the navy
should have a large merchant marln as
auxiliary. He said a "small standing
army" of about twice the sis of the
present army should be "only a decimal
of an inefficient reserve army, subject
to a hurry call." The state militia
should be under federal domination, he
said.
It closed with criticism of state's
rights and local or provincial govern
ment, and of parties that stand for It
He declared that the La KoUette act
will soon put out of buslneas the few
merchant ships remained under United
States registry, and that th law Is th
"stupidest pleoe of legislation In our his
tory." Feels at liana.
His opening remarks were that he re
gretted that he could not belong to a
university olub, as he did not graduate
from a college or unlveralty, nor In fact
from a bitrh school, as he lea the Omaha
High school when 1 years of age In
order to marry.
"And yet" be said. "I somehow feel
very much at home la this particular aca
demic grove, because nobody In Omaha
could hold hlmaelf so aloof that I would
not feel near to him.
"It transpires that I recently received
three Invitations te speak In Omaha, from
three different organisations, all for
ahput the same date. I tried te arrange
an amalgamation of these organisations
so that I might kill three audiences with

What Happened in Ten Minutes;
A True Sidelight from Real Life
Here'g a little chunk of human inter
eat, pldcked out of the same ten min
ute. Joe Btecher, Nebraska's wreatling Idol,
had Just finished putting on a Utile ex
hibition with hi brother, Anton Wednes
day night at he mlllkn-dollar Kontenelle
hotel, before a crowd of aeveral hundred
bankera In convention here this week.
When he finished, the roar of approba
tion that came from the throat of the
moneyed men waa like the approach of a
tornado.
With Ma bath robe' wrapped cloeely
about hla splendid figure, he bucked his
way through the tidal wave of Ne-
I braaka'a wealth as it approached to
eelxa his handa In congratulation.
"Oh, Joe! Joey, boy! Hey, Joe."
"jo, I'm Mr. Koyne of Oobavllle, the
fellow that yelled at you that time.
(Shake hands with Mr. Cush of Dough

"Joe!"
"fitecher, meet Prealdent Laike li. Sack
of the First National!
"Joe, shake hands with Caahler Hugh.
O. nil la!"
Joe waded on, acareely noticing the
men of wealth aa he moved on, smiling
Just over the heada of those neareat
him, and shaking handa with those whom
he could not avoid. It was not unlike

The writer occupied about five minutes
getting out of tho crowd, back to the

In the shadow of the big brownatone

what I have to say Is a 'get together

the Rodeheaver hymn book, and after a

BARTENDER BUYS SPECIAL
SUNDAY EDITION OF BEE
The special edition of The Bee carrying
tne sermons In full preached by "Billy"
Sunday in Omaha had a wide sale, even
in the saloons. One newsboy reported
that a saloon keeper called him In and
bought out his entire stock at one- clip.
The saloon keeper told the ttewale he
would sell the papers to his own custom
ers In the saloon.
IRON FALLS ON FOOT
AMPUTATION NECESSARY
While working tn a Junk yaral at Fourth
and Davenport streets, T. Kalnea suf
fered a crushed foot which will have
to be amputated when a large block of
iron fell from a derrick directly on the
member. Kalnea was runhed to St
Joseph's hospital, where his condition Is
regarded sa serious.
"Say. bo," he whined. "T'aln't ot a
looee dime In yer dick, haa yerT"
It was the second appeal during the
night, and the writer hurried on, un
heeding. Dimes are scarce In the news
paper game.
"I la gettln' too cold to sleep outside, bo'
an a dime buys a flop Inside," the mendi
cant wheedled, keeping step.
There was something familiar about the
persistence.
Reaching for a dime and turning to
give It to the weaaened, decrepit wreck
of humanity, the writer experienced
shock as he saw the beggar's face more!
clearly.
It was Toung Kid (name withheld pur
posely). Five years ago the Kid, too, stood In a
padded ring, with men of money and
fame cheering him like mad. and fighting
for Introductions.
He was a comer then, and in all the!
.state of Illinois and several surrounding
states, there was no lightweight or
weltor who could stand up against him
for ten rounds. Nono save the cham
pions, snd they dodged him.
Like Btecher, Toung Kid was the
Idol of a big section of the country. His
name stood tall on the sporting pages,
and a bright future stood before him..,
Dut Toung Kid never got to be
champion, though he stood next In rank.
He couldn't stand the rush of pros
perity. Another "comer" got him one night,
after the Kid had a session with the fast
life. Then another, and another. After
that Toung Kid couldn't get any battles
at all. except with Old Demon Boose, and
as he eagerly snatched the proffered
dime last night. It was apparent that he
had lost his fight with drink, too.

are less elastic And the bowels are
muscles. , .
Soalt old people need Cascarets. One
might as well refuse to aid weak eyes
with glasses as to neglect this gentle aid
to weak bowels. The bowels must be
kept active. This is Important at all
ages, but never an much as at fifty.
Age Is not a time for harsh physics.
Ton may occasionally whip the bowel
Into activity. But a lash can't be used
every day. What the bowels of the old
need Is a gentle and natural tonlo. One
that can be constantly used without
harm. Th only such tonic Is Cascarets,
snd they cost only It ceita per bo at
any drug store. Advertisement

CONVERTIBLE PRIVILECIES
Convertible at the option of the holder, at maturity into one-year 6 Gold Notes of the Italian
Government, par for par, which in turn will at maturity be convertible, at the holder'!
t option, into 10-ycar Syifo Gold Bonds of said Government, par for par.
We regard the credit of the Italian Government as excellent and these
notes as unusually attractive. The total annual Interest charges on
the national debt amount to only about $3.28 per capita. The two
conversion privileges give Important rights of which the purchaser
Can avail himself later If he desires.
Italy, with a population of about 36,000,000, has today a national debt of about $3,247,400,000,
or about $90 per capita.
The Government owns about 76 of the railroad mileage of the country. It also owns all
telegraph and substantially all telephone lines. These public utilities represent an in-;
; ' vestment of about $1,396,000,000. If this portion of the debt, represented by productive
assets, be deducted, the net national debt would be $1,851,300,000, or $51 per capita.
Italy's record for the last fifty years has been one of notable achievement. It has shown con-'
tinuous increases in population, wealth and education, extraordinary gains in commerce
. and industry and a strong and steadily improving national credit. The year before the
2 war its Syiylg consols sold as high as 98, placing its credit among the highest of European;
nations. v ' - i

The 10-year lx bonds, issuable under the convertible privilege, will be payable in lire as well
as in dollars, which will give the opportunity to Italians to purchase them to send home,",
and in our opinion will mae them attractive to investors in Italy at the close of the war.)
The proceeds of these notes will be expended for merchandise and
commodities purchased by the Italian Government In this country.
Temporary negotiable receipts will be delivered pending preparation of the definitive notes.
We shall be glad to receive applications for these notes
through any bank or trust company in the United States. '
