Drink Dandelion Wine
and Beautify Omaha,
; .jays improvement auo
"Drink dandelion wine and beau
tify Omaha" is the slogan of a
committee representing the New
Omaha Improvement club, which
was appointed at a meeting of the
organisation Tuesday night and
charged with the duty of ridding
thousands of city lawns of millions
of the obnoxious yellow blossoms,
which were declared to be seriously
threatening the beauty, of local
landscapes. '
It was voted that some incentive
would be necessary to enlist the
public in support of the campaign
gainst dandelions, and in order to
create the desired , interest, an
nouncement was made that the com
mittee would confer with Aaron
Lewis and the labor committee on
the resubmission of prohibition.

MAY TAKE PLACE
OF DR. MANNING
(Ceattaacol From Tt One.) -tion
with this man Indicated a desire
to get cut of a department which has
drawn so much criticism. ,
Dr. Mannings resignation follows:
"For some time past the condition
has been forced on me that for the
best interest of the depart
ment of health the man holding the
position as health commissioner
should be one especially trained for
the work. Discussion of. the sub
ject with a number of prominent
physicians in Omaha, and with oth
ers especially cognizant of the pub
lic health situation, has confirmed
this conclusion. For the aSve rea
son, and because of a personal de
sire to continue my private practice,
I hereby tender my resignation as
commissioner of health, same to
take effect at your discretion, but
preferably at as early a date as pos
sible." ,
Comment by Commissioners.
" City Commissioners Ure offered
the following comment on the situ
ation: "As a health commissioner I think
Dr. Manning has made good."
Mayor Smith said: "I have been
pleased with the administration: of
Dr. Manning and would be sorry
to see him leave us. As for the
City Detention home situation, I
am in sympathy with the new
ordinance offered by Mr. Ringer.
This ordinance will limit ; commit
ments to the home to persons who
have been convicted in court, or
those who may voluntarily submit
themselves for treatment. I am
satisfied that none has been com
mitted to the home this year unless
first having been convicted of an
offense in court. That was my con
tention last year when the home
was opened and Dr. Manning and
I had it out along those lines, but
we have reached an agreement on
the matter, as . Mr. Ringer's new
ordinance will show. There have
been ncr differences between Mr.
Ringer and. Dr. Mining."

tention home for women. He was
instrumental in launching this in
stitution when it was opened in i
former residence building at Twen
ty-second street and St. Marys ave
nue. When he announced that Dr.
Palmer Findley would take charge
of the medical work of the home, he
expressed his belief that his trou
bles would be over, -
It is known that the institution
has been more or less a source of
worry to him.
A negro officer at the St Marys
avenue place was arrested on a
charge of receiving money to allow
women to escape. '
Many women escaped from the
home at its old location. Charges
were made that one of the doctors
who examined Women was collect
ing money for services performed at
his office. This money was said to
have been paid in consideration for
not committing these women to the
home. -
Then came the allegations about
administering "dope at the home,
makintr ' the whole situation one
which the doctor has not relished,
his friends aver.
On the other hand. Police Com.
missioner Ringer maintains an abid
ing faith in the home, and yesterday
offered an ordinance to more fully
define the powers of the health de
partment in this connection.
"I am told that there are only
eleven women at the home," stated
City Commissioner Zimman yester
day. , .
Hat School Inspection.
Dr. Manning is also head of the
medical department of the public
schools, an agreement having been
entered into with the city when he
was appointed health commissioner
that he would be allowed to carry
his school work along with the city
work. He is paid $3,000 per year for
his services as health commissioner
and $2,000 per year for his public
school work.
The doctor has served as health
commissioner nearly one year. The
present city administration began
its work exactly one year ago today
and Dr. Manning was appointed
health commissioner shortly after
the administration took charge. '
Police Commissioner Ringer, Dr.
Manning, and Dr. Palmer Findley,
head of the City Detention home.
held a private conference in the city
) 1 last Saturday, but none of the
conferees would divulge the nature
of the meeting.
Rumors in the city hall are that
Dr. Mannings resignation wil. be

by Eating Bacon and

The key to the1 icebox was the
key to the matrimonial troubles of
the Mullane family, according to
the testimony of William Mullane,
4727 South Thirteenth street, who
appeared before Judge Foster in the
Jsouth Side police court Wednesday,
charged by his wife with assault
and battery.
"I "padlocked the icebox, but it
was to keen her from wasting my
food and throwing -it at me," the
master ot the house said.
"He told me that unless I paid
board I couldn't have food," his
wife insisted,; and : a large; tear
blotted the charges on JudgesFos

ee, turned the gas" out under ray
akfast' and then from his Dad-
locked icebox he took bacon, eggs
and coffee for his own breakfast."
'It seems to md you're following

Martynouvitz is owner' of the
bakery which his nephew, Gust, runs
and according to the testimony of
Mrs. Kounot, in order to force them
to leave, he did not keep up the out
side of the building but put the
screen doors up so that the flya
could fly right in. '.
The judge dismissed the charge
and advised the landlord to keep
up the outside appearance and keep
the flies out.

CUMMINS IS
PRESIDENT OF
THE U. S. SENATE
i .-,
(Continued From Tt On.) - '
Root of Wisconsin, and Fall of New
Mexico.
' Progressives Stand Pat.
No indication of the fight against
Senators Penrose and Wai ren de
veloped in the conference, which
was confined to the routine busi
ness of plans for organizing the sen
ate. It was said , that the dispute
was not mentioned. Seven m4mbejs
ot tne progressive group met in
Senator Borah's office previously to
the conference and agreed to nomi
nate Senator Cummins for president
pro tempore, after Senator Johnson
ot Lalitornia had rejected a sug
gestion from a delegation of the so
called regulars that he become a
candidate.
The contest over the selection of
Senators Penrose and Warren to
the committee chairmanship is' ex
pected to develop in the committee
on committees and at the next con
ference. Senator Borah declared to
day that he would not attend the
conference unless it was open to
the public and under an agreement
that senators are not to be bound
by a maj'ority vote on ' committee
assignments.
A few of the progressives, it was
stated, plan to absent themselves
from . the committee conference
while others were reported to intend
to vote against Senators Penrose
and Warftn in conference, but pre
pared to accept a maj'ority vote ot
the conference. It was said that the
progressives would nominate Sena
tor Townsend. of Michigan, for
chairman of the finance committee
from the floor of the senate. Friends
of Senator Penrose expressed con
fidence that he finally would head
that committee, but there was said
to be strong sentiment among the
regulars as well as the progressives
for election of Senator Smoot of
Utah to the appropriations commit
tee chairmanship. , 1 ...
Jobbers jSay Higher
Pnces in Coffee Not
! Likely in Near Future
Local jobbers say much higher
prices in cotree are very unlikely
and that certainly not in the near
future. Recent reports regarding
further advances originated from
sources interested in selling green
coffee, believing that a scarcity talk
would increase their sales.
The roasters do not believe that
it is a good policy fr- consumers
to rush in and buy coffee m quan
tity. The summer months are
ahead, and coffee easily becomes
stale. Coffee contains an oil that
becomes rancid like , butter, and
even though packed in tin cans.
coffee does not maintain its delicacy
and strength for over 30 to 60 days.
A pound of good, fresh coffee,
even though it should cost a little
more, is worth as. much, as ; two
pounds of deteriorated coffee in
both strength and fine flavor, they
contend.
