Omaha lodge No. 39, Benevolent
and Protective Order of Elks,
launches today iU big membership
drive for 3,500 members within the

tains are leading 20 teams, with their
goals: 500 in time for the initiation
of class of 500 by September 17,
1,000 new members in October and
2,000 in November. During the last

On the heels of the completion of
the drive will come the erection of
the new Omaha Elks' $1,000,000
home, to be one of the finest build
ings in the city.
Architect James T, Allan has al
ready made a tentative drawing oi
the new home, a 20-story building
designed along th.; lines of a Grecian
temple, with h 10; foot balcony sup
ported by Corinthian columns ex-,
tending around the eleventh story,
and a roof garden on top.

There will be a swimming pool in
the basement, the first two floors
will be used bv stores and the next
seven for oriices. The two top
stories will be given over to lodge
rooms.
An unusual and pleasing feature
of the new home will be rooms for
the women folk of the members,
where every facility of a modern
club will be provided.
Actual work or the construction
of the new home is expected to start
at the first of the year.

has been appointed is considering
available locations. A selection of
tentative sites will be made by the
committee and then reported to the
membership of the organization.

members to look over the sites the
final selection will be made by vote
of the entire membership.

drive and th? plans for the mag
nificent new home. "
"New Orleans added 8,000 mem
bers ia a recent drive, and Seattle
ran her membership up 6,000 in a
push," he said "We count the pop
ulation in Omaha every bit as good
a recruiting field tor lodge purposes
as New Ot leans, and look for splen
did results from our campaign."

Bowlett, A'. B., on the British steam
ship Aspinet, in from. Calcutta, in
vested "four bob" with a person 61
color at the Bush terminal,' Brooklyn,
last February 13. Bill declared that
he made the best bargain in a long
and varied career afloat and ashore.
He acquired the left hind foot of a
rabbit,, caught in a graveyard at
midnight by the light of the-moon.
Since that date, when the Aspinet
sailed out of Sandy Hook, she has
logged 25,000 miles. In all that time
the only bad weather, encountered
was a little blow in the Indian 'ocean.
"Extr'ordinary," remarked Captain
Hancock.
'Extr'ordinary me eye, said Bill
behind his hand to Donkeyman
Hawkins, "'twas the charm I got

The last week has not been particu

In that territory, only now coming in tas

at that stage the prospect for the crop la
very good. Further deterioration of the
crop la reported In Wisconsin, Illinois and
parts of Missouri ant southaastern lows.
Minnesota and the Dakotaa got much
needed rain In the middle of the week,
though not at all enough at most sta

Th extreme hH of the preceding week
