Omaha Preacher. Tell Their Audit,


ors to Wear Them.
Omaha. Neb.. July by preconcerted
action the clergymen of Omaha an
rounced yesterday morning that shirt
waists would be acceptable in their
sight as garment in which to worship.
With the thermometer in the neighbor-
hood of 100 degrees. as it stood Sunday,
1t is the opinion of the Ministerial Union
that church-goers should not be com
pelled to appear in starched shirts and
sober black raiment.
The Rev. E. F. Trefz, of the Kountze
Lutheran church. remarked from the
pulpit that anything decent enough to
wear on the street or in store was fit
garment to Wear to church. The Rev.
L. H. jerks. Of the First Presbyterian
church, expressed the hope that shirt
waists would be the universal garment
during the summer months. The pro-
posal of the clergymen has met with
high favor, and will undoubtedly be ac-
lcepted.
II would esteem 1t highly if men
would come to church in any sort of
garb such weather as this" said the
Rev. c. E. Sargent, of the ST. Mady' $
Avenue Congregational church.

FOR AN ELECTORAL LAW.

n Governments

Cubans Getting Ready to Innugurate
Government.
Havana, July 1.-The project for an
electoral law as drawn up by the corr
nittee appointed for the purpose is es-
tablished. 1t only deals with the cleo
ernors, councillors, mayors and ayunta-
mientos. A law regarding the election
of president and senate is not
outlined as yet
The report says that the election of
provincial councillors is most urgent, as
these councillors, together with double
their number of electors. will together
elect a senate. and the senate and house
OF representatives together will decide
regarding the Legality of the election of
{. president The project, in conformity
with the constitution, recognizes the
representation of minorities.
The constitution says that the house
of representatives shall consist of one
member for every $4,000 inhabitants.
This will give Havana seventeen mem
bers. Santa Clara fourteen. Santiago
thirteen. Matanzas eight, Pinar del Rio
seven and Puerto Principe four. The
electors may vote for eleven members
in Havana, nine in Santa Clara. eight in
Santiago, five in Matanzas. three in
Puetro Principe and four in Plnar del
Rio.
Regarding provincial councillors. the
constitution says that the number in
each province shall not exceed twenty
nor be less than eight. The project gives
Havana twenty, Santa Clara and Santi-
ago seventeen each, Matanzas fifteen,
Pinar del Rio twelve anG Puerto Prn-
cipe eight. The electors can vote for
thirteen councillors In Havana, eleven
each in Santa Clara and Santiago ten in
Matanzas. eight in Pinar del Rio and
five in Puerto Principe.
The commission has taken away all
right of intervention on the part of the
governmental authorities and puts all
election matters in the hands of an cleo
toral commission composed of members
of the different political parties.
Regarding the final decision of the va
lidity of the election of representatives
and provincial. councillors, this rests
with the house of representatives and
the provincial councils respectively.
The granting of the maximum number
of members of provincial councils is
considered to be radical measure.

report Of another disaster to the Brit

a sensation In London, and there is a
feeling that the disaster Is greater
than the dispatches SO far, which are

The Beers in eastern Transvaal
seem to have rushed Colonel Bensons

ten officers including Colonel Benson,
and fifty-four men killed and 100 non
commissioned officers and men wound
ed. Four of the latter have since died
1t Ia believed now that every man
available will be sent to South Africa
Following Is the text Of Lord Kitch-
ener's dispatch:
"I have Just heard of severe at:
tack made on the rear guard Of Colonel
Benson's column when about twenty
miles northwest of Bethel, near Bro.
ken Laagte, during thick mist.
"The strength of the enemy Is re
ported to have been thousand. They
rushed two guns with the rear guard,
but It Is uncertain whether they were
able to remove them.
II fear our casualties are heavy
Colonel Benson was wounded, but not
seriously. A relieving column will
reach him this morning"
Later Lord Kitchener telegraphed as
follows:
"Colonel Barter, who marched from
the constabulary line yesterday,
reached Benson's column early this
morning C'riday) unopposed. He re-
ports that Colonel Benson died Of his
wounds"

COLORADO CHILDREN
AT PASTEUR INSTITUTE

Chicago. Nov. Eight children, ac-
companied by their parents, ended n
1000 mile race for life last evening at
the Chicago Pasteur institute. Another
child will arrive to-day. The young
sters, ranging in age from 4 to 0'years,
came from Colorado Springs, where
they were bitten last Sunday by a
dog afflicted with rabies. Fearing hy-
drophobia, their parents began the
long journey to have the children trent
ed. The victims were met at the in
stitute by DR.. A. Logorio, who admin
istered the first injection of serum. To
insure success DIR. Logorio prefers to
administer the first treatment within
five days Of the time the bite was in
fiicted. II the children had not ar
rived when they did. he says, rabies
probably would have developed and
death might have resulted.
DIR. LogOrio said last night that the
children would recover. His patients
were:
Charles Gregory, Catherine Lamb,
Nellie, Chester and Margaret McAul-
life and Agnes Vanderverter and Hazel
Mech.
The victims are children of mechan-
les employed in Colorado Springs. The
animal which caused the trouble was
a little black and tan dog owned by
Mrs. E. F. McAuliffe.
