Consolidation is Favored by Omaha Bowling Leagues ' Enlistment in the army of many crack Omaha bowlers and the lack of interest shown by those at home yjill probably lead to the consolida tion of the Farnam and Huntington leagues. The Farnam league at a meeting Sunday afternoon decided to meet with the Huntington bowl trs at 8 o'clock Monday night and confer on consolidation. Only four teams in the Farnam league asked for new franchises. All bowlers and those interested in nut- loTntH8"t$iW the league are invitad . ..

Seventeen months of war have cost the United States- government $17,339,681,342 a billion dollars a month. This rate has increased so rapidly, however, that August expenses ran up to $1,805,513,222, or nearly $200,000,000 more than the highest previous rec ord set in July. These figures from the Treasury show that-less than 1J4 years of modern warfare have cost the Unit ed States more than four times the combined Union and Confeder ate outlays for three years of the civil war, calculated at $3,660,000,000 for the union and $1,500,000,000 for the confederates. The report also shows double the rate of increase in expenditures es timated by the government in June, then set at $100,000,000 more each month. If this rate continues, ex penses for the year ending next June 30 will be much more than the $24,000,000,000 estimated, and the country may be called on to absorb more than 'the $16,000,000,000 of Liberty bonds now tentatively planned. Allies Get Big Sum. The Treasury report also shows further of the $17,339,000,000 cost of the war to date, $10,989,077,000 has been spent for ordinary war pur poses, and $6,245,764,000 has gone a' financial aid to the allies. This til be repaid eventually, and con sequently may be deducted in cal culating the net war expense to the United States government. Only $5,031,478,000 has been gath ered by the government from taxes, customs and other minor sources of revenue since the war started, and $12,300,000,000 from Liberty loans and sale of certificates of indebted ness, which are to be converted into Liberty, bonds. This indicates that only 29 per cent of war expenses to date have been drawn directly from the pockets of the people, and that 71 per cent has come from popular borrowings which wiil necessitate heavy tax levies long after the war. The third Liberty loan has now brought in $4,165,635,000. which leaves onfy $11,000,000 of the $4,176 000,000 original subscriptions yet to be paid in. The last installment was due three weeks ago.

In August re ceipts from the stamps were $129 044,000. Even with this total, com parison shows that war savers did not keep up their pace set in July, when the government collected $211 417,000 as a result of the national campaign on thrift day. Tremendous war expenses these days $60,000,000 a day are being met by the sale of certificates of in debtedness, virtually short time loans from banks, to be refunded in the fourth Liberty loan. Even with $500,000,000 of these securi ties going out every two weeks, and a corresponding inflow of money, the government's working balance has dropped from about $1,500,000 000, where it stood for the last few months, to about $1,000,000,000. The figure represents funds on hand, most of which is distributed as de posits among hundreds of banks, but available at all times for check ing out. Mullen and Dahiman I r '1-1 Uf..i William F.

A tragic incident in connection with the funeral of Andrew Tully will be that the hour of his funeral was the one set for his marriage to his sweetheart, Miss Ann Kopecky, who lives with her mother, Mrs. E. J. Gullet. Miss Kopecky and Tully were en gaged to be married nearly a year ago. He was 24 years of age, and being eligible for military service, the young couple deferred the mar riage until after the war. Tully enlisted in the navy and after serving for several months was honorably discharged because of physical disability. Arrangement had been made that the very car in which her fiance met his death, was to have been used to take the young couple to their wed ding at the church. t Patrick Broderick, the second vic tim of the accident, is survived by a wife and three children.

AFTER her four weeks in vaudeville, Marie Cahill goes Around the Corner," the musical comedy which she presented for 12 weeks in Chicago, closing a week ago. Despite the great number ot successes in which Miss Lahill lias starred, it is a curious fact that she is nervously as high-keyed before each of her performances as if she were a novice, she is at the Or pheum tliis week, where she is pre senting a number of her old song successes, and a monologue which rouses the heartiest sort of laugh ter. "Oh, Boy," the smartest musical offering in many a moon, is at the Boyd theater tonight and tomorrow with matinee tomorrow. This charming musical comedy is being presented by an unusual cast of fa vorites, ' including Lavinia Winn, Harry Meyers, Theodora Warfield, Franklyn Graham, Helen Du Bois, Anna Little, James F. Fulton, Thomas C, Leary, James E. Rome, Billv Gould. Florence Smith, Miriam Haeber and a brilliant ensemble of boys and girls. Showing that audiences that en joy musical burlesque also appreci ate a touch of such a classic as the "Sextette" from "Lucia" is clearly shown by the applause accorded Katherine Dickay and Gene Cross in their rendition of the number. That it is supposed to be interpreted by six voices instead of but two is no barrier to these gifted mem bers of "The Sight Seers" at the Gayety winning unlimited applause. Claire Hanson and Village Four at the Empress theater possess good voices and their songs include high class selections as well as popular hits. Delton, Marena and Delton provide tricks that appear fool hardy, performed in a manner that demonstrates their ability as acro bats, "The Maid of the Mountains." a musical play which had a two-year run in London, was produced in New York last week with William Courtenay making his debut in this form of entertainment. He appeared as a brigand chief. The title role was sung by Sidonie Espero, and William Danforth and Bert Clark had the comedy roles. De Wolf Hopper, who is at the New York Hippodrome, started a movement to abolish the carrying of walking canes among the male mem bers for the duration of the war, the object being to donate the canes to the various hospitals in the vi cinity of New York for the use of convalescent soldiers and sailors. Every unclaimed ' walking stick found in the big playhouse will also be put to this use. AMl'SEMENTS. in JJJ On The Screen Today SO "PAULJNB FREDERICK in "RESURRECTION."

Anna Case, the well known American prima donna, has been chosen as the guest of honor at the dedication of Marcus Loew's new Metropolitan theater in New York. Miss Case is now engaged in her first big appearance in motion pic tures, making "The Golden Chance." but chances are slim to be so un ladylike. However, it came her way last week when she got the charac ter part of the gum chewing model in Mae Murray's "Modern Love." Alfred Whitman and Marie Wral camp have completed their photo play, "In the Carquinez Woods," adapted from Bret Harte's story of that name. James K. Hackett's second mo tion picture since he has been ' a stage figure of America has been completed and pronounced as a sure success by all who saw it in its pn vate showing. It is entitled "Ashes of Love" and a sure sign that every thing concerning the production is up to a high standard is the fact that Ivan Abrahamson's name is on the producer's line. Hackett's first and only picture heretofore was the first five-reel picture ever made, "The Prisoner of Zenda," which was the greatest picture ever made up to that time in point of size at least. June Elvidge is to have a com edy drama, a lightsome, jluffy thing work in France, taken for a special government record, the titles ably written by Kenneth C.

SOVIET, IN SORE STRAITS, SEEKS HUN ALLIANCE Lenine Hints Bolsheviki Are Powerless Against Allies and Must Have Aid of Imperialists. Amsterdam, Sept. 16. Hints that the bolshevik government of Rus sia may seek alliance with other powers are contained in a note ad dressed to the people's commissar ies and Soviets by Nikolai Lenine, the bolshevik premier, printed in the Pravda of Petrograd and repub lished in the Lokal Anzeiger of Ber lin. The note reads: "The position on the Czecho-Slo-vak front is becoming more danger ous daily. We are daily becoming increasingly convinced that alone we are powerless. For the soviet government there is only one way out, namely to conclude a defensive and offensive alliance with another power. "In order to save the power of the workers and peasants, we must not even recoil from an alliance with imperialists." Compliments for Reavis. Washington. Sept. 16. (Special Telegram.)

Rheumatism means that the blood has become saturated with uric acid poison. It does not require medical ad vice to know that good health is absolutely dependent upon pure blood. When the muscles and joints become sore and drawn with rheu matism, it is not a wise thing to take a little salve and by rubbing it on the sore spot, expect to get rid of your rheumatics. You must go deeper than that, down deep into the Wood where the poison lurks and which is not affected by salves I and ointments. It is important that jyou rid yourself of this terrible dis ease before it goes too far. S. S. S. i is the blood purifier that has stood the test of time, having been in con- stant use for more than fifty years.

"After spending fully half tha money I made during the past five years on medicines that did me no good, a few bottles of Tanlac put an end to my troubles so that now a hard day's work never even tires me," said J. J. Harinsrton, 423 South Ohio Street, Butte, Mont., the other day. "About five years ago," he con tinued, "I had an attack of fever, that left me with such an awful cough-that it looked like I would never get rid of it, although I took about every cough medicine there is on the market. It would keep me up at nights, and if I exerted myself in any way it would start up and I would almost cough my head off before I could stop. This last year or so my stomach went back on me, I lost my appetite, and what little I forced down soured and bloated me up with gas till I was miserable for hours afterwards. Then I suf fered agonies from pains all XI 1- . - .t,nn AVnllnil mrougn my cucau anu wuunu uj heart. Many a time I would come home from work with such a raging headache that I would go straight to bed. My nights were so restless that I could get but little sleep, and I would get up in the monping feeling tired and fagged out and worse than when I went to bed. "When I read so much about Tanlac I asked my wife to get me a bottle, but my trouble was so stubborn that it was not till I was on my third bottle that I noticed any improvement. First my appe tite started up, and soon after that my stomach got all right and did not trouble me any more, uas stopped forming as my indigestion improved and the misery in my chest and around my heart stopped for good. My cough, too, has en tirely disappeared. I sleep like a log at night and I haven't had a headache since I finished my sec ond bottle of Tanlac. My consti pation has been corrected and I now feel so well and strong that I am equal to any job, no matter what it is." Tanlac is sold in Omaha by Sher man & McConnell Drug Co., corner 16th and Dodge streets; 16th and Harney streets ; Owl Drug Co., 16th and Farnam streets; Harvard Phar macy, 24th and Farnam streets; northeast corner 19th and Farnam streets; West End Pharmacy, 49th and Dodge streets, under the per sonal direction of a Special Tanlac Representative, and in South Omaha by Forrest & Meany Drug Co.
