TURKEY KNOWS HIS
TIME HASJIOT COME
Struts Haughtily at the Poultry
Show When the Hour of
the Ax Passes.
DOGS AND CATS THERE, TOO
There was a different atmosphere
among the poultry at the poultry
show on Turkey day. Conspicuously
was this noticeable among the turk
eys. Until 10:30 the turkeys were quite
meek. At that hour the big gobbler of
, L. P. Stone of Lexington began to
strut. That was well past the hour
when any turkey destined to be baked
for Thanksgiving dinner must be
killed. So this big black gobbler felt
sure of a lease of life for another year.
Strut? Why. he (airly polished the
maple floor with the tips of his wings
as he scraped and rasped them along
Yes, so far from fearing human beings
and their dreaded axes he even sallied
at them as they gathered around to
look him over. He scraped the floor,
pouted and rushed at the bars of the
cage until he made the wire screen
sing.
Pupa at the Show.
The tiniest and youngest pups in the
pet stock department of the show are
fire handsome little Boston bulls with
their mother ''Queen,'' exhibited by
Frank A. Wellman. The little fellows
are a scant four weeks old and spend
most of their time snoozing with their
thick little noses buried in the soft
sides of their mother. Every one has
the same beautiful markings of the
nose that characterize the mother, and
everyone has a screw tail. They are
attracting much attention, especially
among the children who visit the
show.
A big Russian wolf hound, white
as snow, is exhibited by U. K. Smith
ot Muleshoe, iex. J his fellow stands
s high at a 5-year-old boy and looks
as though he could leap a mile. He is
a quiet, solemn fellow full of poten
tialities.
Persian Cat.
' Th Kfvtnn ' Parlr Cattrv ni
Benson has a fine exhibit of Persian
cats. Mrs. H. B. Fleharty of Omaha
is exhibiting some handsome Angora
and Persian cats, and Mrs. Agnes
Oover, 3517 franklin street, Omaha,
is exhibiting "Sultan," the Persian
king.
Ralph Martin, 3412 Taylor street,
and M. H. Fowler, 4213 Larimore
avenue, are exhibiting fine lines of
Belgian hares.
Out on the main floor among the
poultry are several groups of 'pheas
ants. Billy Stevenson of Forty-first
and Erskine streets is exhibiting two
handsome pairs of these birds, which
he raised by setting a common hen
with pheasant eggs. L, G. "Nfchdls ot
Benson and Adam Jamieson of 2319
North Twenty-fourth street are also
exhibiting fine pheasants.
The show will continue until Satur
day evening. It is open both days and
evenings. Many visitors flocked in
early Thar.ksgiving morning..

Military Rule Is
Proclaimed by U, S,
In Santo Domingo
Washington, Nov. 30. Cagtain H.
S. Knapp, commanding the American
naval forces in Dominican waters, has
by proclamation declared a military
rule in the Dominican Republic to
break the deadlock in the local
government and carry out the treaty
obligations of the United States to
guarantee interest in the public debt
and other obligations.
Since the election of the new presi
dent in Santo Domingo affairs have
been in a deadlock because the local
government refused to permit pay
ment of obligations which the United
States has pledged itself to see ful
filled. Affairs became so involved,
it was said here, that Captain Knapp,
acting under the full authority with
which he has been clothed, decided
to clear up the situation by putting
the island under military rule tem
porarily to preserve order and carry
out the local government's obligations.
Santo Domingo. Domincan Repub

Captain Knapp today notified Sec
retary Daniela of his action and it
was approved, He said he expected
to have affairs straightened out by
December 2. and reported conditions
quiet and the populace satisfied with
his action. There was no military
clash and no military governor was
appointed, as was reported from
Santo Domingo. v

GREAT BRITAIN TO
TAKEOVER MINES
Government Proposes Drastic
Step to Prevent Threatened
Strike in South Wales.
MINERS ARE RETICENT
London, Nov. 30. The govern
ment's decision to assume control of
all the coal mines in South Wales on
December 1, under the defence of the
realm act was announced too late last
night to enable commentators as yet
the gauge its probable effect. The
announcement was a surprise to both
sides in the miners' controversy.
Secretary Richards of the South
Wales Miners' federation declared
that the miners would oppose such a
measure unless it were made applic
able to the coal mining industry of
the whole country. A majority of the
South Wales leaders are now in Lon
don for a conference regarding the
threatened strike. They will meet this
morning to consider the situation.
Mine owners are reticent. A dis
patch from Cardiff says the news
came to the coal interests there as a
bomb shock.
The executive committee of the
South Wales Miners' federation to
day adopted a resolution reiterating
the demand of the federation for a
15 per cent increase in wages and
demurring to government control of
the collieries unless all the coal fields
of Great Britain are brought under
such control.

TEUTONS TAKE TWO TOWNS
Berlin, Nov. 30. (By Wirelss to
Sayville.) On the northern Rouman
ian frontier the Russians are continu
ing their new offensive movement.
The war office announces they ob
tained no important results yesterday
although gaining small advantages at
the cost of heavy losses. In western
Roumania the troops which are de
fending the line before Bucharest were
driven back further.
The Austro-German forces have
captured the Roumanian city of Cam
pulung, opening the road through the
Torzburg pass. More than 1.200
Roumanians were captured.
Near Ciolanesti more than 1.200
men and ten cannon were captured.
Field Marshal von Mackensen's troops
which crossed the Danube have cap
tured nearly 2,500 Roumanians.
Text of Statement
The statement reads:
"In the forest of the Carpathians
and on the frontier mountains of Mol
davia, the Russians continued their
attacks without obtaining important
results. They suffered heavy losses
and had to be contented with small
local advantages.
"In west Roumania we pushed back
hostile vanguards. In addition to the
capture of Pitechti, we also yesterday
took Campulung, and thereby opened
the road running through Torzburg
pass. In the fighting there seventeen
officers and 1,200 men were taken
prisoner and seven cannon and much
baggage fell into the hands of the
Bavarian troops. Captain von

"The Danube army is advancing,

under command of Major Aschauer,

"This army since crossing the
