How a Nervy Man Acted In a Theate

How a Nervy Man Acted In g Theater
 Excitement.

Between the acts some fool in the gallery yelled fight and another fool in the dress-circlc at once yelled fire There was an in- stant panic, and had it not been for Q dozen cool-headed men and the fact that the orchestra kept right along playing there would have been terrible scene. As it was several ladies tainted an6 men and women rushed over the bacL of seats to the door as though they were daft.
 But there was one incident that shall never forget as long as live. A tall gentleman about fifty years of age stepped upon his seat and drew a re- volver from his pocket. In a voice that could be heard for some distance around him he said:
 "'There is no fire, and shall be tempted to shoot the first man that tries to rush out of here and possibly tramplc upon women and children. I mean just what I say, and when the excitement cools down if anybody will point out tho miscreant that raised the cry of fire I will give the gentleman fifty dollars for his trouble, and agree to whip the scoundrel who raised the false alarm within five minutes or forfeit another fifty

RICH MEN Or THE FUTURE.
How to Realize the Full VaIuc oi
 Money.

Money.
 A leather merchant, not generally known to be a wealthy man, died some arose from his will, which distributed great legacies among q score of col lcges. The suit was compromised. and the lcgacics will be paid. Out of the estate of this unknown millionaire nearly four million dollars will be givcn to thirty-five colleges; half a million more will be divided between several hospitals,
 It is impossible, says the Youths Companion, to estimate the good to students and the sick that these be- quests insure for years and years to come. There is no doubt, however, that in general rich mans money had better be given away before his death than after it.
 Many years may pass between the making of fortune and the carrying out of the makers will Besides this useless delay there is the d2nGcr that bcQuests will be diverted from their in- tended purpose, While Q man i3 alive, he can see that his money is spent as he wishes, After his death there is no telling what legal contentious and un- forcseen difficulties may bring about.
 Money il itself i3 worth noting. Its only value lies in what ono can do with it. Many young people are going to make fortunes within tho next genera tion or two. If they will devote Q share of their wealth, while they can still control it. to the wise, generous service of their fellow-men, tho value of money will be realized as never before.

AN INCOMPATIBLE ARRAY
OF Dolls, Toys, Plush Goods, Toilet Gases
and Fancy Goods.
PRICES NEVER so LOW AS NOW.
More Holiday Goods Being Shown at
w. IL. Bennett Co.'S Than We're
Ever Exhibited i'm one Store
West of Chicago Before.

We wish ii to be distinctly understood
that we are headquarters for dolls, toys,
and in fact every kind of holiday goods.
No other store in Omaha can begin to
compare with us in either quantity, quail
ity, variety or price.
Dolls from lC away up into the dollars,
and everything else in proportion.
1t will pay you % make your sclec-
ions now while the stock is unbrokcn.
Pick out what you want and make II
small payment on it and we II lay it
away till such "a time rs you may wanti it
You thus give us a better chance to
serve you than during the rush just be-
fore Christmas, and have the benefit of
an unbroken stock.
DO YOU EAT?
OleOmargerinc, or butterine?
You say no. but how, do you know
you don't?
The records OF the United States court
show that there's lots of it being sold.
We could sell it for Il lower price than
we do good butter and make more money
on it.
But we won't do it.
We stand by t he butter producer and
the butter consumers, that's why we're
popular with both.
Hundreds of farmers ship their butter
direct to us, and thousands of people
know that Bennett's is the only place in
Omaha to buy that staple.
GUARANTEED REMEDIES.
These are few and far between.
Some eastern manufacturers claim to
guarantee their medicines, but there are
too many hands for the goods to pass
through before the maker is reached.
They're never redeemed.
We manufacture a line Of remedies
which we absolutely guarantee to do
all we clam for them.
If they're not satisfactory, all YOU
have to do is to bring us the bottle and
we will refund your money.
The most popular of these medicines
at present is
BENEFITS CANADIAN FIR COUGH
BALSAM.
We've sold hundreds of bottles of his
preparation and our customers are most
loud in its praise. One or two doses
never fail to stop an ordinary cough and
we believe it to be away ahead of any
cough medicine on the market today.
25c and SOC per bottle.
Benefits beef, iron and wine is.the
superior of any preparation of the kind
made. We don't care who makes it, or
where it's made. That's strong talk,
but the medicine warrants it.
If you don't believe il try a bottle,
and if what we say ism so it won't cost
you anything.
Could you ask more?
Pint bottle zoe.
All our remedies are sold on this ''ab-
solutc guarantee plan.
They embrace Il "Sarsaparilla, "I.iv-

The Wells-Fargo and American Express
companies, which have occupied a joint
office in this city for years, have decided to
establish independent offices, and about Dee
cember J, the American will remove to its
new location at 1905 Farnam street. About
December 10 the Mills building at l3l0-13l3
Farnam, will be occupied by tho Wella-
Fargo. This building had been rented for
both companies, and the decision of tho
American to ''go it alone' was something OF
a surprise to the other company.
w. L. Brennan, who has been cashier oftha
Wells-Fargo, is promoted TO local agent. Ii
is rumored thai Superintendent Amador
Andrews of the company is to be promoted
to the position Of general superintendent Of

death of w. j. Hancock.
In this event il Is stated that Agent Simpr
