THE BEE: OMAHA, WEDNESDAY. NOVEMBER 7. 1917.
WOMEN FAINT IN
THEIR EFFORTS
FORM COAL
Reopening of City Fuel Office
. Brings Out Long Line of
Purchasers; 12 Cars
On Hand.
Everybody arrived early at the mu
nicipal coal office yesterday to
avoid the rush, and the result was
that two women fainted in the rush.
The line extended around the first
balcony of the city hall. A woman,
who had waited long to get to the
order counter, fainted in the line. She
was rushed to the head of the line in
side the office and given a cup of cold
water, which revived her. Her order
was taken and she smiled thankfully.
This woman did not ask "Where am 1
at.'" when she regained consciousness.
She said, "I am so glad that I got to
the head of the line, because I came
away this morning before I washed
my dishes."
No Time Lost.
Another woman at the end of the
line fainted when she heard of the
success of the woman who had been
advanced to the front ranks. The
second woman was carried to the
front by tender hands, water applied
by one hand, and her money taken
by another hand.
Two other women discussed the
proposal of a general faint .along
the line, but did not carry their idea
into effect.
The reopening of the municipal coal
office brought another rush, notwith
standing the advance in pric,e. Many
were disappointed because orders
-were limited to the supply brf hand,
which is 12 cars. When this lot has
been disposed of further cash orders
will be accepted.
Union Ban onIuny
Auditorium Lifted;
Opera to Be Given
The hanpiest man in Omaha now
is Lucius Pryor, promotor of popular
priced' opera.
The San Carlo Opera company will
appear at the municipal Auditorium
on December 3, 4 and S, as sched
uled. The Omaha Musicians' union will
remove the "'unfair" ban from the
Auditorium in return for a promise
of fair treatment toward union mu
sicians by the city commissioners.
Pryor stated at conference last
w;eek that more than $3,000 worth of
tickets already had been sold for the
San Carlo engagement. If the
trouble with the union musicians had
not been settled, traveling organiza
tions having musicians would not
have played in- the Auditorium. The
situation threatened to extend to
other branches of organized labor at
:he Auditorium.

We want to give every little girl who reads
this one of these lovely dolls. There are
twenty-four different kinds, and no matter
what kind of a little girl you are, you will be
sure to find one to suit you. If you are a quiet,
motherly little girl probably you will want
one of the sweet baby dolls, and if you are a
rollicking torn-boy girl you may prefer a
Rough Rider doll. 'And there are little sailor
and soldier boys, Indians, pickaninnies, cow
boys and girl3; in fact, almost anything you
can think of in the way of character dolls.
All of them are nearly as big as real babies.
Ask your mother today if you may not try
and get one of these nice dollies. You have
no idea how easy it is and how much you will
like the doll when you get it.
You can have your choice of any one of
the twenty-four cnaracter dolls free if you
will bring us three new prepaid yearly sub
scriptions to the Morning or Evening and
Sunday Bee. Two subscriptions for six months,
or four for three months, or twelve for one
month, count the same as one for a year.
You can see the dolls and get all the in
formation .about how to get one at The Bee

Big Run of Cattle Daily
From the Range Country !
High prices paid for cattle on the
Omaha market is starting animals in
great numbers from western Nebraska
and, according to railroad officials,
there has seldom been a year when
range stuff has been in as good condi
tion as now.
From the sand hill country of Ne
braska the Northwestern is bringing
in one to three trains of stock daily
and the shipments over the Burling
ton are runtime about the same. The
I outlook is that the grassers will con-,
i tinuc coming all this month.
I It is said that notwithstanding the
I high prices paid for feeders the feed
lots will be just about as full as usual
and that the beef that will go onto
the market along about Christmas
time will be prime.

Race Tickets Found
In Wallet, Sixty
Days Says Judge
Two alleged members of a confi
dence gang, J. J. Grey and Charles
Harris, were sentenced to 60 days in
jail by Judge Madden in police court
this morning. These men with six
others were arrested at the Harley
hotel, suspected by police of being
active in race horse swindles. A wal
let, to which Grey claimed owner
ship, contained race tickets, telegrams
in code, instructions from a racing
syndicate and a bond stating that J.
B. King, to whom the correspondence
was addressed, was now under a $50,
000 surety bond. Checks from banks
in principal cities also were found in
the wallet.
Harris, who gave his occupation as
a tailor, admitted serving a term in
the Iowa state penitentiary for a con
fidence game worked in Sioux City, la.
Mrs. L. Vicks, and her husband, J.
F. Campman and wife and Mrs. Vick's
brother, H. F. Gordon, were given 60
day suspended sentences. Gordon is
a victim of tuberculosis. His sister
testified that morphine found in the
room at the Harley hotel was pur
chased for him. The money she said
was derived through an insurance
policy carried for her child, which
died recently.
Ruth Dean, arrested at Nineteenth
and Douglas streets, and giving her
address as 3113 South Twenty-second
street, was released owing to illness.

Omaha "Y" Workers Prepare
To Do Bit in Big Campaign
Omaha "Y" workers are preparing
to do their bit in the huge $35,000,000
Young Men's Christian association
drive to be made next week. Omaha
and Nebraska are expected to raise
$250,000.
E. F. Denison, secretary of the Oma
ha association, who has just returned
from Deming, where he was in charge
of the Young Men's Christian as
sociation work among 38,000 soldiers
stationed there, explained the great
need of this fund.
"-The $5,000,000 given by the nation
last spring is completely exhausted,"
said Mr. Denison. "Construction of
the buildings at the camps and their
equipment came out of this fund. The
Young Men's Christian association
was in Europe when our boys arrived.
All this took money and we must
have more to continue our work.
Heating the buildings is one of the
problems that faces us, especially in
France, where coal is selling at $60
to $90 a ton."
Omaha Boy in Consular
Service Assigned to France
Robert Bradford, Omaha boy in the
United States consular service, has

and makea the skin clear and healthy.
Zemo is a clean, penetrating, antiseptic
liquid, neither sticky nor greasy and stains
nothing. It jj easily applied and costs a
mere trifle for each application. It is
always depeqdable.
