THE person who seems to be attracting
more attention than any one else in
Omaha at present is the celebrated NINE.
GYLMER.
Her parlors are crowded daily with people
who are eager to obtain advice and she
is about the busiest person in town. The
fact that she has been in Omaha years
and her business is increasing daily
demonstrates her wonderful ability as a
Palmst; no one could remain so long and
continue to do business unless they were
just what they represent themselves to
be.
NINE. GYLMER gives advice on all affairs
of life She tells you how to be success
full in love, business or speculation; she
unites the separated; she locates lost or
stolen articles. NINE. GYLMER'S advice
regarding lawsuits is simply invaluable
Don't fail to see NINE. GYLMIIR, you
will be more than repaid for your visit

Atlanta, Ca, May 1.-The Baptist Taber-
nacle. at the corner of Harris and Lrcl!e
streets. presided over by Rev. l.. G.
Broughton, was broken into during last
night and considerably damaged. A door
leading into the Sunday-school room from
an alley was wrenched from its hinges, a
large tank in a toilet room torn from its

on the floor and walls. Several chairs

MINISTER'S DISCUSS LYNcHIne.
Atlanta Lawyer Proposes to Call Conven.
tion q Deal with the Subject.

Special TO The Post
Atlanta. Ga. May 1.-The Methodist
ministers OF the city for the second time,
this morning refused 10 pass resolutions
eondemning lynching. The first -esolu-
tions were offered by Rev. J. T. Dawes.
declaring that the crime OF Hose was in
exeusable, and that no punishment could
outweigh IL. but at the same time -efus-
ing 10 approve lynching The other set
condemned the crime but added nothing
either cOndemnatOry or in favor of mob
violence. The ministers discussed these
two pa 9ers until they were all excited
and sOTely wrought up, but compromised,
or at east decided not to commit them
selves. by tabling both.
Judge George Hillyer. prominent bar
rister of this city, has inaugurared a
movement 10 hold a convention in ATTAIN
ia shortly. TO be attended by delegates
from every county in the State. at which
the various phases OF the lynching prob
lem, and remedies therefor, will be dis
cussed. Judge Hillyer expresses himself
very strongly on the matter. he declares
as a basic principle that ANY one who
thinks assaults on women should b per-
mitted and nothing done about it has no
place in such a CO 1vention." He follows up
this remark by declaring that. while there
can be no palliation of mob violence. at the
same time such legislation should be sug-
gested as will render the infractlOn Of law
less probable or possible. The press has
favorably commented on the scheme.

Director General of Posts f. G. Rath-
bone, of Cuba. had a conference with
Postmaster General Emory Smith yester-
day, in which he reported a substantial
improvement in every channel. Later,
Mr. Rathbone in an interview. said;
From the crude. disrupted old autono-
mist Spanish postal scheme We have built
up a completely equipped Americanized
system, with the same domestic service
enjoyed in this country, with similar
policy of modern methods and facilities.
While we have 80 Americans as acting
postmasters to train the natives along
modern lines, We are retaining the Old
employees very largely, and are making
removals only for cause. We are now
equipping the service with distinctive uni
forms, and ali carriers at all delivery

HAYES MAY BEAT MASTER

Special 70 The Post
Baltimore, Md, MAY 1.-For the first
time In its history as a municipality. Bal
tlmore tomorrow will hold the local cleo
uons In the spring of the year The cleo
ton is a noteworthy event for several
other reasons. 1t marks the inauguratio
or new charter, which to a great extent
practically revolutionizes the form of CITY
government. The battle has been waged
in manner that TO great extent has
obliterated party lines.
The present administration is Republi-
can, and the Mayor William T. Malster.
is the second Of that political faith TO
hold the position in a quarter of a CEN
tury. LIS predecessor. Alcaeus Hooper be-
ing the first. The last-named was elected
Oh good government platform and re-
ceived the votes of Democrats as well as
Republicans. He gave The city an excel
lent administrat ation. but refused q re-non-
ination. The choice of his party fell upon
Mr.. Malster, and the latter went In on
the free silver landslide. His administra-
ton did not satisfy the business men, and
this year they brought out Mr. Hooper in
the primaries. He was defeated, however.
and the good government people selected
Thomas G. Hayes. one of the trainers Of
the new charter. and a leading lawyer, as
their standard bearer. The independent
Republicans united with the Democrats
in his favor. and tonight Indications are
that he will be elected by safe majority
Both sides have been working like
beavers. and the excitement throughout
the city tonight is intense.
Roger M. Gull, Chairman of the Reform
League, says it was learned to-day from
a Republican poll list that the Malster
people had been engaging white and col
ored men, many of the former being Dem
ocrats, who were being carried on
the city pay rolls and yet are not
actively employed. Chairman Gull charges
that the men who are put on the roll are
compelled to return some of the money 10
the party for campaign purposes.
The Malster people claim they will carry
the city by not less than s.000 while the
Democrats claim they will have over 10000
A number of Republicans openly an
nounce their intention to vote the Demo
cratic ticket.
