In Miss Ida palmer's response to the ad-
dress of welcome by Mrs. William Louden
was given the keynote Of the convention OF
p. E.. O.s which opened at Myrtle hall yester-
day morning. She said that the organization
had been in existence for twenty-five years,
had 1000 members and should have %, 900. and
be in every state in the union. In regard to
what should be done with the funds. she
suggested that the value Of the lodge In
furthering the battle Of womanhood for
grandeur of character would be greatly en-
HANGED by appropriating all the funds for
some great charitable work.
Mrs. Loudel's address was highly character
istic of Omaha hospitality, and voiced the
feelings of all, and especially of the members
of the Omaha lodge. The opening devotional
exercises were led by Mrs. Durland.
The committees appointed were: Finance,
Mrs. McHenry; auditing, Mrs. Spilman; by
laws, Mrs. Whitney.

session was given up to reports OF the sec
rotary and treasurer. The treasurer showed
the existence of thirteen chapters with 260
members in the safe of Nebraska, Iowa has

one of the most influential and earnest work
ers, of Los Angeles, was read, endorsing the
suggestion of Miss Ida Palmer that the funds
be used in building and supporting some be-
~nevolent institution, and the sentiment seems
to be general.

bers of the society by Mr.. G. w. Lininger at
his art gallery last evening was much en-
joyed.

the Union Insurance company to recover s245
Insurance. He was a part owner of a build

in the building was mortgaged to Martha

The Cudahy Packing company expects to
begin killing hogs for export soon. One OF
the buyers for this concern said yesterday
that before long the hogs would be solid
enough to dress for expectation. The other
packing houses will no doubt follow suit soon
If the receipts Of hogs keep up. The govern
ment microscopists have not had any work
since June. Orders came about October 1
last year, but the hogs have not been in shape
this fall to pack for export. Large, heavy.
solid hogs are beginning to come in now and
that is the kind the packers want for the

IN THE DISTRICT COURT.
Gus Suing for S25.OOO 70
the LOss of IN Arm.

Gus jacobson Suing for S25.OOO for
the Loss of an Arm.
In the opinion of Gus Jacobson one of his
forearms from a point just below the elbow
is worth $25, 900. At any rate he is suing G..
II. Hammond & Co. and Thomas Sword for
that amount on account of the loss of a fore
arm while in the employ of the defendant
company.
On December IA, 1892. Jacobson alleges
that he was In the employ of the Hammond
company at South Omaha. He was employed
to pull pieces Of pork from under the cleaver
Of a 'cleaver man." While he was pulling
out one of the pieces Of pork the cleaver
struck one of his fingers and cut it off. The
accident was largely due, Jacobson AYERS, to
the fact that the "cleaver man" was utterly
incompetent and from the further fact that
the company, through its forman, Sword. hur-
ried the employees too much. After the finger
was cut off Jacobson says that the company
sent a physician to attend to it. Jacobson
thinks that the physician was not much used
to treating human beings. At any rate he,
says that blood poisoning set in and 1t was
found necessary to amputate his forearm.
