THE Q|DAHY k|DNAP[RS.
One of the Three Implicated in tho
kidnapping Of Edward Cudahy,
IT,, Under Arrest.
HAS Been IDENTIFIED BY HIS VICTIM.
The Man Has Been Under Surveii-
lance for Some Time, and was
Finally Arrested Last Saturday
and Lodged in the Omaha JAIL
His Identity Revealed.

Omaha, Neb., Feb. 20.-One OF the
three men implicated in the kidnap-
ing of Edward Cudahy, Jr, has been
arrested and is now in the city Jail.
The man was arrested Saturday night,
but the news was suppressed by the
police until ROW.
When the suspect was brought into
She presence Of young Cudahy for
Identification the young man said
This is the man who asked me to
get into the wagon, There is no doubt
about it; he is the man."
The Police Reticent.
The police thus far refuse to d.
vulge the identity of the prisoner,
but it is known that he was arrested
by two local officers. He has. been
under surveillance for some time, as
il has been known that he had been
writing letters concerning the Cudahy
case, and this fact brought suspicion
upon him.
Has Been Identified.
Edward Cudahy told press repre-
sentative that the man under arrest
had been identified by his son as the
man who accosted him in front of the
Cudahy residence, and who kept him
company in the house to which he was
driven on the night of the abduction.
Mr.. Cudahy said the man had also
been identified by the servant of the
Partridge household who rented the
house to the two men.
II Is James Callahan.
The name Of the man under arrest
is James Callahan, and he is an en-
convict. He has recently been living
with sister, named Mrs. Kelley, at
Fifty-third street and Woolworth ave-
nue. which is in the vicinity of Ru-
ser's park, and not a great distance
from the location of the house in
which young Edward was held pris-
oner pending negotiations for the pay
ment of the ransom. He has been an
associate Of Pat Grove for several
years, and has lived in Omaha most Of
that time.
Description TalIies.
His description talies with that Of
the dark-compleNioned man who ne
gotiated for and bought the horse and
buggy with which the abduction was
procured The servant of the Par
fridge household Is the woman Of
whom the man made inquiries with
regard to renting the house, and she
says there is no doubt as to the idcn-
tity Of Callahan as the man with
whom she talked.

tached to the motor the armature cur rent will be more than approximately increased, for the work Is being done at a greater rate. The same principle can be illustrated by a generator. If the field magnets are strong the arrla- ture may require only a low speed, but If the magnets be weakened and the same e. m. f. desired the armature must be driven correspondingly faster.
 The field of a series motor Is depen- dent upon the current in the arma- tue. If the motor Is on constant potential circuit and the load is light u., a small current will be required The field will consequently be weak and ] very high speed of armature will be necessary to generate the requisite c. Q. m. f. A shunt motor. having its field of constant strength, independent of the armature. is subject to no such variation of speed. For conditions of full load and sparkless communication the brushes of a motor need to be set a little back of the neutral line: In a generator little forward of that posi- ton. Since a shunt motor to generate must be rotated in the same direction 1t will act as a generator for a few moments after the switch Is opened until the speed has fallen below that required to maintain the field magnet ism. What was c. e. m. f. imme- diately becomes a working e. m. f. sending current around the field coils. Since the brushes are not adjusted for a generator some sparkling will result at the commutator.

the torQue of the motor would be properly reduced Such motors were shut down by short circuiting them. no rheostat needed in starting. For use as a generator a series machine must be rotated in the opposite direction. It will generate at any speed if the exterior resistance is low enough.
 On a constant potential system the current is unlimited, .and starting from a position of rest. when an armature Is not generating any (. c. m. f. a re- sistance must be inserted in the arma- ture circuit and gradually removed as the speed increases. When fully under way the C. e. m. f. Is the controlling element. Suppose the motor. just illustrated, was started without rheostat; armature resistance is one ohm then by Ohm's law the current from a l10-volt circuit would momen- tarily be 1lO amperes. This amount ought to melt the safety fuses; if not. the armature wires would be melted.
 If the motor has a series field the rheostat is, of course, put anywhere in the circuit.
 one principle that at first is rather surprising, and to many we'll informed persons mysterious, is that if a motor is running on d constant potential cir cult the speed will be increased by weakening the field magnet Just the opposite case Is expected, for in the case of the series motor on the arc circuit the reduction was actually realized. In this case the amount of current is purely dependent on the c. e. m. f. A certain c. e. m f. must be generated equaling-except for the volts lost in armature resistance-the applied 2. m. f.

The sou,rre1 Hunters weapon

The cream of squirrel hunting is en-
joyed by the man who uses a light rifle
Of small caliber and medium power
The 800 long" as now turned out by
our leading makers Is an excellent
weapon-in fact. the best in the world
for the purpose. Though not of sufi-
cient range to be dangerous to people
or stock at distance, 1t throws lead
with surprising accuracy to the tops of
the tallest trees. Good rife shots al
ways aim for the squirrels head both
to add to the difficulty of the sport and
to avoid spelling meat. And be it
known that squirrels head at range
Of 40 or so yards is no easy mark. If
a reader doubts this, let him go to the
woods for a day, keep all empty shells,
and at the end of the day let him try
to make the dead squirrels and the
empty shells tally.-E. W. Sandys in

was quiet child, little younger than

brimming over with mischief. After
awhile, finding the game dull, Bessie

and Margery looked uncomfortable

and on one occasion nearly struck by

owl grew less and less frequent. the,
swishing of the waters fainter and
fainter, the pain in his back easier.
He must have slept some time. Sud-

too weak to move. His voice was al
most gone, but as the horse and rider
approached he cried out with all the
strength he could summon. "Marse

Mr.. Aiken drew rein quickly and
turned his big lantern in the direction
Of the voice.
"Who is it, and where are you?" he
asked, dismounting.
"It's me, boss" answered the boy.
"What the mischief are you doing

into the boys begrimed face. why,

the boy answered. II seed the leyee er

"Yessir; but hurry. boss" answered
the boy.
AS Aiken turned to remount he heard
the sound of boat wheels around the
curve and the whistle sounded out
hoarsely.
"By Georgew exclaimed Aiken.
''Theres boat. and three more inches
Of water will top the leyee here and
then all is lost"
In few moments the boat rounded
the curve and the big lights shone out
across the water.

saw the two smokestacks, with Nor

So saying, he picked up his gun from

out when the boat was in hailing dis
tance.
'I'm running this machine" respond
ed the coarse voice of Morton. "and
guess the river is free!"
Aiken could see the little tongues of
water as they overlapped the bank
above. If the boat did not turn, she
would send the water over the levee
lower down where the boy was, and he
and the whole embarrassment would be
sucked in. There was no time to be
lost
Swinging the lantern above his head
so that Morton might see him. he flung
his rifle to his shoulder and called back.
''Come another foot nearer to this
shore and you are dead man!'
Morton knew what manner of man he
had to deal with The wheel reversed,
the boat tackled and grazed the opposite
shore, which was already submerged.
"All right now. Pete" said Aiken
gently, patting the boys muddy pate.
''I'll go on and be back In few mo-

When they came by and put sand
bags in the hole Pete had been cover

speak or to stand, and Mr.. Aiken took
him up in his arms and himself car
ried him to the house.
And now Pete does nothing but ride
