IMPORTING SLAVS.
Illinois Steel Company is Replacing it's
Workmen.

CHICAGO, June 15.-Slavonic labor
ers are being imported by the wholesale
into south Chicago, tagged like express
packages. The majority are promptly
given employment by the Illinois Steel
Company. United States immigration
inspectors have been watching this big
influx and are convinced that there
have been many violations of the con-
tract labor law. One batch of men has
been sent back to their native land, and
efforts are being made to get evidence
sufficient to return 1000 more, who have
arrived in south Chicago since last fall.
Ever since the steel company began
to displace it's American, Irish, Welsh
and German employees with Slavonic
labor, there has been a steady stream of

Need of ni.burstuu Omccr

A dsbursing agent for the government
building, now in course OF construction here.
is badly needed. Last summer the position
was ffered to p. j. Barrett. but for some
reason he neglected to qualify and no other
appointment was made. Now that active
work on the building has been resumed the
need OF such an officer is apparent. Under
the present system it is necessary for per-
son to send a receipted bill to Washington
and then wait at least six weeks for check
With disbursing officer located here all
this long wait would be done away with.
The position of disbursing agent pays very
little, as the compensation of such an Of
ficer is figured on the basis Of one-eighth Of
per cent of the amount to be expended. As
about half the appropriation has already been
expended it will be seen that the position is
not worth hustling for. The contractors and
others who furnish material or labor would
very much like to see disbursing officer ap-
pointed, but the compensation is so small
that no one here cares to assume the re-
sponsibility.

in a cell at police headquarters as sus-

serted that he found several sticks OF dyna-
mite laying ON the front porch OF r.. b.
Towl's RESIDENCE, Twenty-third and L streets,
at an early hour Sunday morning When
Barrier told his story to the police shortly
| after he alleged he found the explosive the
first inclination Of the officers was to look
him up, as within very few minutes he
gave several different versions. 1t is under
stood that Mr.. Towl vouched for the young
man and he was released Yesterday room
Mayor Ensor decided to start little investi
CATION Of his own, as he was inclined TO
think that the story was hshy. The res ut
was that Barrier was soon placed behind the
bars, and he will be properly sweated when
the time comes. In his own behalf Bar
rier asserts that Sunday morning he was en-

and describes the route taken. He is evil

graphy Of South Omaha. for according to his
tale he walked through streets which are not
open and never have been graded. Then he
refuses to tell the police the name Of the
woman he was with at the time. He says
she is married and he will not disclose her
identity, no matter what happens After
wandering over half the city Barrier says
he left the woman in the vicinity of Twen-
tieth and streets and then took a little
stron- Fortunately for him he discovered
a package OF explosives on the steps OF
Towls house Just In time to prevent a hor-
rible catastrophe.
When Mayor Ensor took hold of the mat
ter he stated that he would give 1t thor

working on the case. although the fact has
about been established that Barrier is ro-
mancing to a great extent. Barrier worked
under MIR. Towl al the Omaha Packing COM
pany about year and a half ago, but left
his job TO go back to Nicola. He returned
to this city on January l OF this year and
has been seeking employment ever since
For some days past he has been circulating
around with Red" Morrisey, an old packing
house hand. The mayor reasons that as
these two men were seeking employment the
finding OF bundle OF explosives on the steps
of superintendent of packing house would
most likely bring about appointments &c
nice, soft, easy jobs This seems to be the
most probable solution of the problem. II l.
thought that Morrisey cooked up the scheme
and induced Barrier to lay the parcel on MIR
Towls steps and then discover It at an op-

walked all over town with woman Is not
believed. The police are beginning to think
that Morrisey was with him and assisted In
the carrying out OF the scheme.

"STARrED WITH A COLD"
So says one of the Grcntcst OF Nmcris
can Physicians aud he Proves
what Hc says.

at is surprising what mistakes even soms
OF the best people in the world make"
The speaker was one OF the greatest doc
tors the world has ever known. and he re-
sides in New York.
Take for example one OF the most COM
mon things in the world. namely. cold.
People speak of taking cold" there Is really
no such thing.
"a cold is a symptom-an effect. not a
cause, Did you ever know an absolutely
we'll and healthy person who took cold?
never have, even under the greatest ex-
posure. Yes. indeed a cold is a symptom,
not a cause"
The gentlemen and ladies to whom the
doctor was speaking exchanged looks OF
ustonishment, but they did not dispute the
words of the learned doctor.
"You may be surprised" he continued
"when | tell you that nine tenths of all
colds occur because those great organs OF
the body. the kidneys, are out OF order"
More men and women are troubled with
imperfect kidneys than with any other
known form of disease. The unfortunate
| thing about it is that they do not know
| that this is their trouble.
"Why? Because all difficulties, derange-
ments and diseases of the kidneys which
come to both men and women are usually
| symptoms whatever. and this proves just
! what | said at first namely. that "A cold
! is q symptom -
There was look Of amazement upon the
| faces of his hearers.
| Indeed" continued the doctor, most de-
| liberatey and earnestly. 81 assert that the

has brought so much trouble into the world.
| would never had had it's run il the kidneys
| of those who tad suffered from 1t had been
in perfect condition. These great organs.
| il unclogged, would have thrown the dis
| ease from the system so that the grip would
have been unknown.
| "Now there is but one great discovery
! for the prevention and cure of all kidney
difficultics-that grand remedy, Warmers
Safe Cure No class of people know or rea-
lize this better than the medical profession.
and no class is more ready to acknowledge

Take my word. anyone who is careful
upon the first approach Of a cold or grip
and goes right to the seat of all colds-the
| kidneys-will not suffer long from cold; (;
| will not be oppressed by the grip and need
have no fear of pneumonia. because the kid
neys, unclogged, will open up the system
and throw the germs of disease out of the
body. You can depend upon this"

| HEARD ABOUT TOWN.


Charles White Of Aurora Neb.. known to
a number as "Buckskin Charley" is in the
city and will remain a couple OF days to as
sist in a series of entertainments given
by the Red Men of Omaha. Mr.. White is
a member Of the order and his long years
on the frontier and with the Indians en-
able him to add specially interesting feat
ures to q program, particularly when 1t is
prepared under the auspices of the Red
Men.
Mr. White says the sobriquet OF "Buckskin
Charley" was given him in report Of
the fight between the trappers and set
| lers on one side and the Indians on the
other on the Loup river in this state in
1878. The account Of the battle was tele-
graphed from Grand Island and in 1t this
term was used, (which has stuck by Mr..
White closer than a poor relation since.
He Is a native OF Ohio SO years old, and
crossed the plains thirty years ago. He
came to Omaha in 1861 when. he says
there was only one street in the town. UP
to 1885 he spent most of his time hunting
and trapping on tn. plains, but after that
year game became so scarce that he aban-
doned the occupation. He has made his
home in this state for many years. During
| the earlier years of his western life he
associated a great deal with the Indians
| and Is familiar with their life, habits and
| traditions and Is able to tell many inter-
esting stories upon these subjects. This eX-
| perience also enabled him to accumulate q
number Of interesting relics and his Sc
lection in this line is superior to any other
although not so large as some in existence
In the entertainments which he will give
for the Red Men he illustrates the use OF
| the tomahawk throwing knives, shooting
with bow and arrow and many other
things peculiar to Indian existence He
also explains the work OF the medicine
men which he has improved by some worl
OF his own until it makes the real featur
Of the entertainment. The medicine men
be says, practice a large degree of decep
tion through a species of rough sleight- of
hand. He shows these tricks, explaining
why the medicine men did them and ther
proceeds to do the same thing In hin owl
way, which he has acquired by long prac.
tice.
