OMAHA WOMAN
COMPLETES LONG
TRIP IN ALASKA
mi, i
Mrs. Ruth Wilson First One of
Her Sex to Visit Mt.
McKinley National
Park.
Seattle, March 27. (Special Tele
gram.) With the record of being
the first white woman to visit the
Mount McKinley National park in
Alaska, with miles and miles of
mushing and a caribou and
Other big game scalps to her
credit, and, best of all, she says,
with her health entirely restored
after a year in the wilds of Alaska,
Mrs. Ruth Y. Wilson, pretty young
Omaha widow, arrived in beattle
Friday on the steamer Alaska and is
to spendSa week here before return
ing to her home in Nebraska.
Mrs. Wilson is the wife of the
late Frank H. Wilson of Omaha,
former wire chief of the Nebraska
Telephone company, who was killed
at Fremont, Neb., in 1918, and a
sister-in-law of L. B. Wilson, gen
eral superintendent of the Nebraska
Telephone company. She was for
merly Miss Ruth Campbell of Coun
cil Bluffs.
After being selected for overseas
work in the war and having the
armistice put an end to those ac
tivities Mrs. Wilson suffered a nerv
ous breakdown and set out on a
"5,000-mile journey to visit her
bi other, William Campbell, mining
man at Fairbanks, Alaska.
From the time she arrived at Fair
banks until she returned to Seattle,
Friday, Mrs. Wilson's experiences
have kept her at the highest pitch
of enthusiasm over the wonders
of Alaska. From Cordova she made
the trip to Fairbanks and Chitina
over the Copper River railroad, took
the long trail 300 miles by stage
over the Alaska and coast ranges.
Starting in April, 1919, she was on
the move by train, automobile, dog
sled, steamboat and afoot for near
ly a year, spending most of the time
on the Kantishna river, tributary
of the Tanana river, by which she
penetrated into the deserted wilds
of the interior.
" Starting September 1, she was on
the first steamer to make the trip
up the Kantishna to the deserted
mining camp, Roosevelt City, since
the gold strike was made there in
1906. The steamer carried two
bareres loaded with supplies for
joe Dalton and Mr. and Mrs. Jee
Q. fjuigley, the only people leit
at Roosevelt City. It was the first
supplies they had recieved, except
by pack, in more than 12 years.
A huntine trip into the Bear creek
country which netted nine moose,
five black bear and four glazier
bear, was the first experience with
the Quigleys and then a trip was
undertaken to the Mount McKinley
National Park and Wonder Lake
that entailed a 10 day boat trip up
the Tanana river into the Kantishna
country and Big Moose creek can
yon, believed by scientists to be the
old bed or the McKinley river, uays
of hikinar followed, with good hunt
ing all the way. Mrs. Wilson had
her first shot at big game and
brought down a caribou with her
first shot. Mountain goats and bear
were later added to her trophies. On
one hunt nine fine rams were killed
and Mrs. Wilson got permission to
bring a couple of heads out.

The boys noticed a cape lying by

ing over the edge of the breakwater
saw the partly submerged body.
Coroner Cutler was notified and
took charge of the body. The worn,
an apparently had fell into the wat

known that Miss Wiesehann had
been very despondent' since the
death of her brother, William
Wiesehann, last November, both
were unmarried and had been liv
ing together for several years. The

When Do We Eat?

"When Do We Eeat?" a poster
designed by Arthur. Sholes, a fifth
grade pupil of the Walnut Hill
school, for the annual poster con
test of the Nebraska Humane so
ciety, tells its own story and will
make a strong appeal to all lovers
of dogs. This young lad was deeply
touched by a little neighborhood
dog, whose owner seemed to forget
that animals as well as human be
ings have to eat, and when subjects
were chosen for the poster decided
to picture this poor little hungry
dog.
This is only one of scores of
every-day examples from real life
which the children have developed
into wonderful posters. Every
phase of the need of kindness to ani
mals, birds aud children has been
utilized either by showing Ideal con
ditions or the opposite. The chil
dren have exercised unusual thought
and care in developing their ideas
and the ability they have shown in
design, color and action is mar
velous, the work being o'ne hundred
per cent ahead of last year in the
opinion of Miss Marion Reed and
W. W. Bradleyj secretary of the
Humane society, in charge of the
contest.
Over 4,000 posteis have been sent
to the rooms of Miss Reed in the
city hall this week and many. more
are to come. This week these will
be classified and judged by Mrs.
Ward Burgess, Mrs. Howard Bald
rige, Mrs. Alfred Darlow, Doane
Powell, Terry Wilkison and Guy R.
Spencer and the winners announced.
One hundred dollars in prizes will
be given by the Nebraska Humane
society and the winners of this con
test can compete in the National
Humane society contest in Albany,
N. Y., for which $275 in prizes will
be given.
During Humane Week, April 12
17, a public exhibition of the post
ers will be held under the auspices
of the Fine Arts society at a place
to be announced later.
Over The Political Fence
The republican eubernatorial sit
uation was made more definite and
certain yesterday when E. M. Pol
lard of Nehawka announced from
Lincoln that under no circum
stances will he withdraw from the
primary race. He stated that he
was the second man to file and that
he was not responsible for the situa
tion which prompted certain repub
licans opposed to Governor McKel
vie to endeavor to obtain withdraw
als and center the opposition to one
man. Mr. Pollard also stated that
he withdrew on a previous occasion
in the interests of another candidate.
A conference was held in Lincoln
a week ago to eliminate some of
the candidates and to agree on one
man to oppose, the governor. The
only change in the situation since
the conference was the withdrawal
of John H. Bachelor of Valentine,
who was the last to get into the
field. Mr. Pollard's determination
to remain in the primary race upsets
the predictions of several Omaha
politicians, who stated yesterday
that before next Tuesday the field
would be limited to Governor Mc-
Kelvie, George D. Matthewson of
ri .m i J j .1
onicKiey ana anoiner man.
In this connection it is significant
that H. J. McLaughlin of Hall
county, another of the republican
candidates for governor, was in
Omaha yesterday morning. He was
in conference with prominent repub
licans, who would not divulg the
nature of the business in hand. Mr.
McLaughlin is six feet six inches
tall and weight '50 pounds.
"Regulars'" and "independents"
are the names by which the oppos
ing factions of democracy wish to
be known. The regulars are en
trenched at the Paxton hotelwhere
the democratic county central com
mittee and the Hitchcock-for-Presi-dent
committee occupy adjoining
rooms. Among the leaders of the
regulars are Arthur F. Mullen, J.
C. Dahlman, C. F. Bossie and J. H.
Mithen. The independents have
their headquarters in the Patterson
block, where Harland L. Mossman
and Mrs. H. J. Bailey are in charge.
The present democratic embroglio
savors somewhat of the old feud be
tween the "Jacks" and the "Jims,"
democratic factions which went
after each other with their battle
blades dripping with gore. Most of
the leaders of the present independ
ents are former members of the
old Jacksonian club, whose mem
bers were known as "Jacks."
Harry G. Counsman, candidate for
republican nomination for county
assessor, is one of the oldest native
born residents of Omaha. He was
born on an Omaha homestead 58
years ago and has lived here con
tinuously. He is a member of
various Masonic organizations, in
cluding the Mystic Shrine.
The managers of the Nebraska
Wood-for-President club have taken
a straw vote in various Omaha
buildings, on presidential prefer
ences. They assert the vote was
taken without prejudice and offer
the following results:
Lowden, 222; Pershing, 260; Poin
dexter,4; Wood, 619; Harding, 30;
Hoover, 258; Johnson, 195; Hughes,
3; Coolidge. 2: Taft, 3.
Bryan, 60; Edwards, 118; Gerard,
13; Hoover, 165; McAdoo, 133;
Palmer, 11; Wilson, 104; Debs, 1;
Hitchcock, 160.
N. P. Dodge, chairman ' of the
Leonard Wood committee of pub
licity for Nebraska, issued a state
ment yesterday in which he replied
tojfittacks made by Senator Borah!
and others, in connection with the
alleged munificent campaign fund
being used by the Wood-for-Presi
dent managers.
"A chairman of publicity in the
primary election, I wish to state
that not one dollar has come to me
from outside of Nebraska, and so
far, I am spending my own money.
and doing business on my personal
credit. To date we have spent no
money for sending letters or litera
ture through the mails, and have
only just started a small advertis
ing campaign in newspapers, Mr.
Dodge stated.
He added that Leonard Wood's
candidacy springs from that ele
ment in the party that desires to
perpetuate the spirit of Theodore
Koosevelt.
AWARD PRIZES IN
AUDUBON SOCIETY
NATURE CONTEST
Katherine Baxter Wins. First
Place Boy Scouts to Take
Bird Census.
Prizes for'the winners in the Au
dubon society's nature question con
test were awarded Saturday evening
at the public library by Dr. S. R.
Towne of the Audubon society. The
lucky ones were: Katherine Baxter,
first prize (a pair of hiking boots);
Ethelen Brown, second prize (ko

Life").
Those receiving bird and flower
Juides as prizes were: Genevieve
ohnson, fifth prize; Mary Sears,
sixth; Esther Nystrom, seventh;
Wilbur Bridges, eighth; Ellanor
Baxter, ninth; Mike Drakulic, tenth.
The society "turned over to the
local Boy Scout organization the
work of taking a bird census of the
Fontenelle bird reserve. Charles F.
Perkins, the Boy Scout bird expert,
submitted plans for the census. The
bird reserve is to be blocked off into
tracts and a Boy Scout who is good
on birds will be captain of a group
of scouts who will take a census of
birds and nests. On a tree where a
nest is found the scout will put the
name of the bird and other data on
a small tag
Humane Officer Bradley reported
that posters by the school children
are coming in rapidly. Some post
ers will be used to advertise the lec
ture of William L. Findley, who will
speak at the Masonic temple next
Thursday evening.
Dr. S. R. Towne told of Mr. Find
ley's wonderful motion pictures of
bird and animal life. Birds on the
nest and birds dancing are shown
by Mr. Findley, says Dr. Towne.
Charles Perkins gave a talk on
birds, illustrating it by free-hand
cartoons showing the characteristics
of the water birds and borers.

Friday afternoon, a mighty roar
arose from the throats of 1,500
bloodthirsty Shriners.
Of the 450 candidates making the

smiling.
At the last oasis in the desert at
which the caravan stopped, J. Dean
was so anxious to ease his parched

"got out on a limb." That ended it
all. J. Dean was through.

and the final settlement, adjusting
the 5 per cent to be set aside each
year out or the earnings of the com

An innocent vaulting pole nearly
caused the Illinois university track
team to miss the westbound Over-,
land Limited train at the Union sta
tion Saturday morning.
The team of 18 men, in charge of
Head Coach J. H. Moore, is on its
way from Champaign, 111., to the
University of California at Berkeley,
Cal., where it is to train for the
Olympic games in Europe. It ar
rived in Omaha on a Burlington
train, in a special car, and changed
to the Union Pacific.
The vaulting pole, which is 20 feet
long, was removed from the bag
gage car of the Burlington train.
No place could be found for it on
the new train. The special car was
too short. Baggage cars were all
locked. Members of the team as
serted that they would never go on
without the pole. Coach Moore was
frantic.
It was one minute to train time
when L. C. Quinn of the Union Pa
cific passenger department solved
the problem and had the pole tied
on the top of the car, and the team
continued its western journey re
joicing.

Maxlne Dempsey has undertaken
to show Georges Carpentier how hi
can beat Jack Dempiey, if news dis
patches are correct
Maxine is quoted by one service
as saying "Jack's back always weak
ens about the fourth round. If Car
pentier will keep out of Jack's way
for the first few rounds and then
put'over a kidney punch he'll win."
Another service quotes her as say
ing: ''Jack Dempsey has to resort to
drugs to keep up his strength and
courage in the ring.
"I advise Carpentier or any other
fighters to stay away from Jack for
the first three rounds and then go
in and play for Jack's stomach and
the region around his heart It is
not known, but Jack has his 'snort
of snow' before he steps out for the
first round. For three rounds he is
unbeatable and Carpentier. with
hypnotic eye and all that, had better
keep away from him for the first
three sessions. After the third
round, if he has a hard fight, the
effect of the 'snort' wears away and
Jack gets nervous. If Carpentier
plays for Jack's heart and stomach,
then he will lick him before the end
of the fifth round. Before Jack goes
out for the sixth round he receives
an injection of strychnine and he
regains his courage, but a good blow
about the heart is liable to kill him
then."
