MAYOR GETS OLD CITY MAP
Was Made when Lots In Present
Business Center We're
Given Away.

Judge ]. II. Blair presented Mayor
Moores with a curiosity Friday morning in
the form OF the first map ever made Of
Omaha. It is dated September /, 1854. 1t
was resurrected Thursday from an old chest
In the garnet of a house on Cass street,
near Judge Biair's home. An interesting
feature of the map is a notation in one
corner, which reads as follows:
Lots will be given to persons who will
improve them. A newspaper, the Omaha
Arrow, is published weekly at this place.
A brick building suitable for the terri
torial legislature is IN process OF con5truG;
ton and a steam mill and brick hotel Will
be completed in a few weeks.
In another corner appeared the names Of
the three men who at that time owned
Omaha, Enos Lowe. James r. Jackson and
Samuel s. Bayliss.
The founders evidently intended that a
park should be at Sixteenth and Farnam
streets, for the block on which stands the
Paxton building is marked washington
Square" The corner on which the Board
Of Trade now stands would have been pre-
scented to any one at that time who would
build a shanty on 1t.
The map takes in all west of the Mis-
souri, river to Twenty-third street, and the
plated section extends as far north as
Swan caldwell street) end as far south as
Scott (Poppleton avenue), The streets south
of Swan street are named as follows: Eagle,
otter, Elk, Buffalo, Badger, Antelope Web
ster, etc. Since then it has been thought
expedient to eliminate natural history from
the street nomenclature, and the fore
I going th~oroughfares are now named: Cald.
well, Indiana. Nict olss, Michigan, Cunning
and Burt.
Mayor Moores will ave this dogeared old
relic framed and hung up in his ONCE.

Apology from Bridge Mag
nate t. in order.

"Since my return to Omaha yesterday
said Victor Rosewater, L have had my
attention called to the assertion made by
John r. Webster of the Omaha Bridge &
Termina company. to the effect that The
Bees protest against his company's evasion
Of their taxes is prompted by my failure
to secure from him a contribution to the
campaign fund to promote my fathers cam
didacy for the United States senate.
mr.. Webster has a Jog in his memory
as well as his veracity. l never solicited
from him, or from any one else, any con-
tributions to help defray the expenses
either Of my fathers candidacy for United
States senator, or Of the candidates on the
legislative delegation. pledged to his sup
port. In 1900 l was not on any finance
committee for the campaign and had moth
ing to do with the finances.
THE only time l ever approached Mr..
Webster for a campaign contribution was
In 1899, when in company with f. ]. Cor
nish, who was at that time chairman OF
the executive committee Of the republican
county committee, / canvassed among re-
publican business men for assistance for
the county ticket, which included among
the candidates Judge Vinsonhaler, County
Clerk Haverly, County Surveyor Mcbride,
Councilman Burmester, who was running
for sheriff; Mr.. Baright, running for clerk
Of the court; Mr.. Bryant running for county
treasurer. Mr.. Cornish and l called on
Mr.. Webster in his office and told him
our mission. He replied that his com
pany was not in politics and could not
contribute to any political campaign. l
suggested that as he was a republican he
might make a personal contribution and
he declined. l have not spoken to MIR. Web
ster since on that subject or any other. II
he were disposed to be truthful he would
correct his statement and apologize"

TOO Great n It1sE.

In almost every neighborhood someone
has died from an attack OF collie or cholera
morbus, often before medicine could Se
procured or a physician summoned. A re-
liable remedy for these diseases should be
kept at hand. The risk is too great for
anyone to take. Chamberlsin's Colo.
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy has un-
doubtedly saved the lives Of more people
and relieved more pain and suffering than
any other medicine in use. 1t can always

TO YOUNG WOMEN.
Letter from Miss George Bryan, Sec
rotary of the Social Economic Wo-
mans Club of Memphis, Tenn.

How many beautiful young girls develop into worn, nsttess and hopeless
women simply because sufficient tten ton has no been paid to their physical
development. No woman is exempt from physical weakness and periodic
pain, and young girls just budding into womanhood should be carefully
guided physically IS well IS morally.
If you know of any young lady who Is sick and needs mOtherly
advice ask her to write to Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass who will
give her advice free from n source of knowledge which is un-
equalled in the country. Do not hesitate about stating details
which one may not like to talk about, and which re essential
for a full understanding of the case.

MOB WAS DEFEATED
BY DEATH Of
VICTIM
NEGRO MURDERER DIED MONDAY
NIGHT AS THE MOB WAS PRE-
PAIRING TO STORM THE JAIL
AND Lynch PRISONER.

OSCEOLA, Ark, Sept. 1O.-Death robbed
a mob of victim Monday night when
Badly Taylor, a negro, died in the
county Jail at o'clock.
Sunday afternoon when the train of the
Deckerville, LuXora and Great Northern
railroad pulled into Luxora Taylor enter
ed the coach for white passengers and
upon being told that he was in the wrong
coach, the negro pulled a revolver and be-
gan firing at random. Eugene r. Hughes,
a prominent lumberman and planter, OF
Rosa Ark, was mortally wounded; II. G..
Fisher, inspector for the Three States
Lumber company, received a fatal wound,
and E. w. Study, also a lumberman, was
slightly wounded.
Taylor was shot in the breast and it
was thought only slightly wounded. He
was arrested and taken to Osceola Jail.
while the three white men were cared for
by local physicians. During the night
mob formed with the avowed purpose of
lynching the negro. Sheriff Sam Bowen
and a guard of deputies stood guard at
the Jail and refused to deliver the negro
to the mob. The latter dispersed uatil
this morning, when it was said reinforce
ments would arrive, and an attack upon
the Jail begun.
At 8 a. m. 1t was announced that Hughes
had died from his injuries and that Fisher
could not live twenty-four hours. This
announcement caused more excitement
and late yesterday the mob again formed
to intercept Sheriff Bowen in an attempt
to spirit the negro away TO Little Rock.
Later, DR.. Collier was seen to hastily en-
ter the jail and in a few minutes he
emerged with the statement that Taylor
had died from his wound. The mob i'm
mediately dispersed and all is again quiet.
Fisher is in a desperate condition, and 1t
Is not thought he will survive the night.
