Escort of Girl Who
Scorns His Dance
i Sam Fimminella, 27 years old, bar

street, will probably die today in St.
Joseph's hospital, a victim of his own
chivalry. He is shot twice through

wrist. Police surgeons say the ab
dominal wounds will cause death.
Fimminella escorted Alice Wilson,
who also lodges at 70S North Eight
eenth street, to a ball being given last
night at Metz hall by an Italian so
ciety. While there, George Cacioppo,
a former friend, asked her 'to dance.
She scorned him, and he spat in her
face. When she told her escort he
upbraided Cacioppo, and told him to
follow him outside the hall to expiate
the offense.
Cacioppo did so, but when Fimmi
nella faced him he whipped out a re
volver and emptied it at the young
gallant. : He then escaped. Miss Wil
son and another young woman, Jessie
Ramsay, of 7034 North Eighteenth
street, are being held at headquarters
as state witnesses.
In his escape Cacioppo fired two
shots at Policemen Simple and Da

Firemen Fight
- Smelter Blaze in
Chimney Itself
Fire in the "bag house" of the
American Smelting and Refining com
pany last night worked damage
amounting to several thousands of
dollars.
The smoke house is a big brick
building curtained with big bags.
Through this building the smoke from
the various departments is inducted,
and before passing out into the air is
cleansed of thousands of dollars'
worth of gold, silver, lead and other
materials.
The bags caught fire, and employes,
in order to keep the flames fraro
spreading, were compelled to enter
the bif room full of noxious gases with
their fire-fighting apparatus. Each
man wore an oxygen helmet, and the
fire was extinguished before any had
been overcome.
GOD SHOULD BE THE
PARTNEROF DS ALL
Farmers Should Be the Most
Religions People in the
World.
SERMON BY BISHOP STUNTZ
"Some say they find it difficult to
live their whole life unto God," said
Bishop Homer C. Stunt in his ser
mon at First Methodist church Sun
day morning. "Very well, let them
change their life. Everything that is
worth doing can be done unto God.
Anything that cannot be done unto
God has no business to be attempted.
There are whole trades that would be
wiped out of existence if all men were
to do their work unto God."
The bishop had much to say about
those who think thev can live out
their religious life by attending a
prayer meeting once a week or sing
ing in the choir on Sundays. "They
think it Is sufficient that they live a
religious lite tor these tew hours, and
then they go back to their real estate,
they go back to selling coffee, and
doing a lot of other things which they
think have nothing to do with uod.
"This was not the conception of
faul, nor ot Christ. All life is a serv
ice unto God. All" work should be
given unto God, not grudgingly, but
cneertuiiy.
Partnership With God..
The bishop showed that all work
worth doing is done in partnership
with God. "The man who farms,
makes hay, cuts his grain, feeds his
cattle, is working in partnership with
uod. rie is only working at one end
of the task, with God working cease
lessly at the other. God sends the rain
and the sunshine, and sends it at the
right time all over the earth. Think
of the task that means alone. The
farmers should be the most religious
people in the world, for they are in
the most direct partnership with God.
God is the biggest farmer in the
world. He takes more interest in real
estate than any man in the world.
God has 1,600,000,000 people in the
world to feed, and they wake up
hungry every morning, if they're
well."
He told the congregation that Rev.
Titus Lowe is not working for him,
but for Jesus Christ, and that the con
gregation is not working for Rev.
Titus Lowe, but for Jesus Christ.
Kev. litus Lowe during the serv
ices announced that Bishop Stuntz
now has over 1,200 ministers under
his direction and guidance in his dis
trict. - -

OMAHA IS MECCA
FOR CONVENTIONS
City Is Living Up to Name
Sixty-Eight Societies
Meet Here.
ADVEETISmO DOES IT
Three times as many conventions
were held in Omaha this year as in
the year 1911, and then there were
two to spare. ,
"Omaha, the Convention City," is
constantly becoming more and more
of a convention city. In 1911 it had
but twenty-two conventions, and this
year it had or will have had when the
year closes, a total of sixty-eight con
ventions. The number has been coming up
steadily, especially since the bureau
of publicity has made convention
work a targe part of its activities and
has set out to make Omaha a con
vention city.
Here are the number of conven
tions held in Omaha during the six
years beginning with 1911:
mi m ti
ms is Ids st
ni ss 116
Thirty Thousand.
The total number of delegates at
tending these sixty-eight convention
in Omaha will run well up to 30,000
this year. Most of the. convention
held here this year were better at
tended than ever before. Of the
ninety-three counties in the state
eighty-two were represented in the
convention of the Nebraska State
Teachers' association held in Omaha
the first part of November. Also the
3,700 teachers who attended this con
vention represented 351 towns and
cities, or almost half the towns
the entire state.
The convention of the Nebrask
Bankers' association brought in over
1,000 delegates, which is by far the
largest attendance this convention
ever had. The Farmers' Co-operative
Grain and Live Stock State associa
tion had more than 600 delegates in
attendance.

Worth Careful Thought
Do yon read the label to know whether
your baking powder is made from cream
of tartar or, on the other hand, from alum
or phosphate?
Royal Baking Powder is made from
cream of tartar, derived from grapes, and
adds to the food only wholesome qualities.
Other baking powders contain alum or
phosphate, both of mineral origin, and
used as substitutes for cream of tartar
because of their cheapness.
Never sacrifice quality and heakhful
ness for low price.
