TWO FINE SPECIMENS



No form of athletic exercise demands such
perfect physical condition as prize nghtmg
Every muscle In the body must be fully de-
vcloped and supple. and the heart lungs
and stomach must act to perfection.
Whether we endorse prize fighting or not,
it is nevertheless interesting TO know the
manner by which men arrive at such phys
cal perfection.
James Jefferies, the present champion
heavy weight OF the world, and his gallant
opponent, Tom Sharkey, in the greatest
pugilstic encounter that has ever taken
place, both pursued much the same course of
training and the first and most important
part of this training was to get the stomach
in condition, and to keep the digestion alb
soutely perfect, so that every muscle and
, nerve would be at its highest capabilities.
This was not done by a secret patent med
icine, but both of these great pugilists used
a we'll known natural digestive tablet sold
by druggists under the name of Stuarts
Dyspepsia Tablets and composed of the
digestive ferments which every stomach re-
quires for healthy digestion.
Champion Jeffres says: "Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets prevent acidity, strengthen
the stomach and insure perfect digestion.
They keep a man in fine physical condition"
Signed, James j. Jeffries, champion of the
world.
The gallant fighter, Sharkey, says: STU
arts Dyspepsia Tablets remove all discom-
fort after eating. They rest the stomach
and restore it to healthful condition l
heartily recommend them" Signed, 1nos.
J. Sharkey.
The advantage of the daily use of Stuarts
Dyspepsia Tablets is that they keep people
well and ward off sickness and are equally
valuable to we'll persons as to the dyspeptics.
Another advantage is that these tablets con-
tain no cathartics. or poisons of any charac-
ter, but simply digestive ferments which are
found in every healthy stomach, and when
digestion is imperfect it is because the stom
ach lacks some of these elements and
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets supply it.
They are no cheap cathartic, but a PER-
fectly safe and efficient digestive and the
demand for them is greater than the sale of
all other so-called dyspepsia cures combined
No remedy could possibly reach such a place
in public esteem except as the result of
positive merit.
Full sized packages are sold by all drug
gists at so cents and the best habit you can
possibly form is to take a Stuart Tablet after
each meal They make weak stomachs
strong and keep strong stomachs vigorous.

ASSETS ARE TO BE SOLD
Receiver McCague of the German
Savings Bank to Act
at Once.

Receiver Thomas l.. McCague OF the Ger
man Savings bank is we'll pleased over the
recent decision of the supreme court sus-
tanning his position with reference to his
action in selling the personal property OF
the defunct financial institution. Now that
this matter is out of the way he will take
steps to sell the remaining assets, consist
ing of real estate of about $4,000 valuation.
The property will be advertised for sale as
soon as the mandate comes from the SUI
preme court However, it is thought that
there may be some delays, as it is expected
that there will be litigation with proba-
bilty that the supreme court may have to
be reached before final adjudication.
After the real estate of the bank is sold
suit will be brought against the stockholl-
ers to recover the balance due depositcrs
When the money will be recovered is some
thing that Receiver McCague will not at
tempt to predict at this time, as he expects
that the stockholders will contest every
SteD.

FIRE RESULTS SERIOUSLY
starts from an Open Can of Gasoline
and Burns Two Women
Severely.

Mrs Winfred Burke was dangerously
burned about the hands and face yester-
day as the result of an explosion of can
of gasoline that was sitting too near coal
fire at her home, SOP North Twenty fifth
street. Mrs. Burke opened the stove door
with the intention of putting more coal on
the fire and the flames shooting out ignited
the can of gasoline. Mrs. Burke's clothing
instantly caught afire. Her screams brought
her daughter-in-law Mrs. John T. Burke
who, with wonderful presence of mind
wrapped the burning woman in a bedquilt
and in that way saved her life. Others came
in then and eXtingushed the fire in the
house. Mrs. Winifred Burke was painfully
burned and the nervous shock was great
but she will probably recover. Mrs. John
T. Burke was badly burned about the hands
The damage to the property was slight.

At the meeting of the East Side Improve
ment club Monday night committees were
appointed to wait upon the Burlington Off
cials with an urgent request for a depot at
the foot of NJ ntTS street. The matter of
sidewalks was also debated at some length.
A request will be- filed with the council for
better sidewalks in the eastern portion of
the city and committee has been dele
gated to properly present the matter before
the council. The opening of roadway to
the railroad tracks was considered and the
appointment of a committee to advise with
the Burlington officials was the result.

DR.. LEE HARRIDEN ARRESTED
Gathered in by the Police Right i'm
the Midst of II spiritual
SCnnCc.

Osmand Day, alias Dr. Lee Harden, was
arrested Tuesday night upon a complaint
sworn to by j. s. Miller, charging him with
being a vagrant, suspicious character and
unable to give a good account of himself
Along with Dr. Harden were arrested Mrs.
NJ. Il. Palmer and Mrs. a. f. Hart. The
arrest took place at the home of Mrs
Palmer at the corner Of Seventeenth and
Dodge streets during a spiritualistic meet
ing.
The three persons were taken to the sta
tion and several prominent spiritualists went
there to see what they could do to get them
released. The believers in spooks were all
very indignant over the affair and expressed
themselves so at the station, although they
said they desired to be tried and thus ascer-
tain If people could be arrested because
they were spiritualists.
DR.. Harden, who teaches the spiritual
istic doctrine and who also advocates mag
netic healing, was arrested some time ago
in Kansas. He put up a bond of $500 in
cash for his appearance in the United
States court and came to Omaha where he
Immediately won a considerable following.
Several friends interested themselves in
his behalf Tuesday night and he was al
lowed to go upon his consehtlng to leave a
roll of bills amounting to $500 with the
police authorities The women were re-
tanned in the matron's care during the night.
The police were unable to state Just who was
back of the arrest but it was thought there
was some animus in the matter.
Dr. Harden is a prepossessing man in
appearance and seems to be highly educated
and man of polish. He was highly indig-
nant over his arrest and will employ an at
torney to defend him

Finn Case sin On ar pittsbure

PITTSBURG, Nov. 2S.-At the opening Of
court today counsel for the defendants in
the case of the City of Pittsburg against
state Senator William Finn and others for
500 600 damages announced that the city had
failed to prove anything against any two
of the defendants and asked for nom
suit Attorney Watson, counsel for Senator
Finn said that he was perfectly willing to
go on with the case, but on the face of the
testimony nothing had been shown against
his client.
Judge White thought that there had been
so much notoriety as a result of the case
that 1t would be better for all parties to
have 1t go or. The taking of testimony
was then resumed.

ois, and treasury notes CS9l1eI2SW OUT
standing, SlO9 462,04
The first four items enumerate the special
deposits dedicated to specific payments. AS
these obligations are met, the deposits are
correspondngly reduced
The scope and purpose of the provisions
for maintaining the standard by the sale
of bonds and the exchange Of money are
thus set forth by Mr.. overstreet:
I'm the absence of law providing pro-
lection to the gold reserve, 1t is always
subject to encroachment by expenditures to
meet the general expenses of the govern
ment. Whenever such encroachment appears
probable the fear has arisen that the gov
ernment may not be able to meet its de-
mand obligations and run on the reserve
for the redemption Of the demand notes has
followed This situation is responsible for
the so-caled endless chain BY separating
the reserve fund from the general fund and
prohibiting its use except for redemption
of United States notes and treasury notes
the dangers to which 1t has been so greatly
subjected will be removed. These demand
notes are being redeemed in gold now and
always have been and no additional burden
is imposed upon the government. 1t Is
sought to simplify and legalize the prac-
tice and create a division in the treasury
where the whole business of issuing and
redeeming notes may be transacted and to
establish complete confidence in the re-
demption of our demand obligations.
To Make n Gold standard Permanent.
Section of the bill seeks to provide
a complete safeguard to the per-
manent maintenance Of the gold standard
by authorizing the secretary of the treas
ury whenever necessary to issue and sell
bonds of the United States payable in gold
coin and for the exchange of gold coin for
any other money issued or coined by the
United States, should the secretary OF the
treasury deem such exchange necessary In
order to maintain the parity and equal
value of all the money of the United States
The legalizng of the gold standard and
provision for the equality of all forms of
money at a parity with the standard will
so remove all doubt of the soundness and
integrity Of our money that there will be
little occasion for the exchange of one kind
of money for another. In order to make a
complete guarantee against contingency
which may arise in the treasury to meet
such emergencies, should they arise, by the
sale of bonds, the exchange of any money
issued or coined by the United States is
deemed advisable. The provision In this
section that no note or certificate once re-
deemed or exchanged shall be withdrawn
except in exchange for an equivalent amount
of the coin in which said note or certificate
was redeemed or exchanged will forever
put an end to the so-called endless chain,
which has so embarrassed the government
in the ever-recurring redemption of the
greenback. There can be no contraction of
the currency under this system for the rea-
son that either the note is in circulation, or
if redeemed, it's equivalent is in circua-
ton"

SOUTH OMAHA NEWS.

From statistics just compiled by General
Manager Kenyon Of the Stock Yards company
it appears that South omaha packs greater
per cent of live stock received than any mar
ket in the country.
In the matter OF the percentage OF cattle
receipts slaughtered during the first ten
months Of the present year the record stands:
Chicago, 6S per cent; Kansas City, so per
cent and South Omaha 62 per cent. During
these same ten months Chicago packed IS
per cent Of the total receipts of livestock,
Kansas City packed 72 per cent Of her re-
ceipts, while South Omaha packed over 80
per cent of her entire receipts of cattle, hogs
and sheep.
When it comes to the packing of hogs
South Omaha leads all the livestock markets
in the country. From January to October
30 OF the present year Chicago has slaugh-
tered only II per cent Of her receipts, while
Kansas City has packed 80 per cent. South
Omaha is at the front by reason of having
packed 9S per cent of the hogs arriving at
this point.
In many sections the idea prevails that
Chicago is tho only sheep market and ham
dies majority of the sheep shipped from
the west. The records, however, do not
bear out this supposition. Slaughtering re-
turns show that only SO per cent of the sheep
received at Chicago are actually killed there.
Kansas City has been in the sheep slaughter
ing business for many years, yet packing
at that point this year has been only 50 per
cent of the receipts. South Omaha has only
reached the dignity of a sheep market within
the last three or four years, for after the
burning of the sheep sheds here some years
ago no effort was made for some time to
rebuild the trade, which thus naturally
drifted to Chicago and Kansas City. With
the short existence of this sheep market
South Omaha now stands second in point
of receipts and 65 per cent of these receipts
have been slaughtered here.
Out of the 693,673 head of cattle received
during ten months 432,1OS head have been
slaughtered at the packinghouses here. Dur
ing the same period of time 1,S19234 hogs
were received and 1793,36O head were
packed. OF sheep ,S33 head were re-
ceived and 6SO,29O head were killed and
dressed. These figures bear out the percent
ages already given.
