~ RANGES IN milling processes are re.
II sponsible for Appendicitis, according
TO physician who has been In the

and who has observed the spread OF the
disease. This physician, Or. IL. c. Howard
of Champaign. ILL.,, asserts that until the
trade demand for exceedingly white -four
changed the methods OF grinding wheat there
was no appendicitis,
TO provo this assertion the physician points
10 the fact that where coarse breads are used
The disease Is unknown, but that as soon
as the fne breadsauffs are introduced APP
peudicitis comes along as a sequence.
BY this reasoning II Is shown that the PEG.
Pile OF agricultural communities who secured
their -four from small mills did not have the
disease until the small mills were crowded
out by the large ones and fine white fiour
supplanted the coarse.
Then the negroes OF the south SO lorg as
they ate corn bread were free from The dis.
ease, but when the new process flour began
to be used the disease came among them.

STEALS BURLINGTON COAL
Joshua Hays Downs Policeman, but
voI Turns Tables and
Lands Him In Cell.

A sack OF Burlington coal and an In
quisitive policeman landed Joshua Hays OF
$40 woolworth avenue in the police station
last night somewhat the worse for a rough
and tumble fight with the oficer and minus
the coal.
One Of Chief Donahue's young men. by
name Moore. saw Hays coming out Of the
Burlington yards at Sixth and Pierce
streets with a load on his back and stepped
up TO make inquiries. BY way OF answer
Hays laid down his sack. lit out with his
fist and knocked in one OF the officers
teeth, Then he grabbed his club, threw II
away. downed the policeman with a we'll
directed left from the shoulder. and pro-
ceeded TO wipe the road with his adver-
sary.
Moore was momentarily disconnected. but
recovering himself he managed TO grasp his
revolver and used the butt with such good
effect as to turn the tables and arrest his
vanquished victor.
when Hays finally landed in the station
his nose was broken, one of his fingers
damaged and he had fifteen small cuts on
his head.

TEAM OF HORSES IS FOUND
Animals Taken by waterloo Bank
Robbers Turn Up at
Calhoun.

The team OF black horses which was
stolen from Menkind's farm the night Of
the Waterloo bank robbery has been found
ten miles north of the village In which the
burglary occurred. The horses were found
by a hunter. running loose in the woods
near that place. The team was first seen
IN the woods last Wednesday, but only
passing notice was made Of the discovery.
The discovery is supposed to show that the
robbers unhitched the team from the car
riage in which they were escaping.
1t is the opinion OF the Omaha police that
the robbers did not come to Omaha at all.
but sought safety in flight to low from the
village Of Calhoun, which could easily be
accomplished. as two trains a day stop at
that place. The officers believe the rob-
bers made their way rapidly to Sioux City
and are either in hiding there or have
journeyed further eastward.
As far as can be determined no passen-
gers answering the description Of the rob-
bers have been seen to board any train at
Calhoun.

MOTHER BERCHMAN'S JUBILEE
sisters Of Mercy Celebrate the Twen-
ty-Finh Anniversary Of Her
Leadership.

The Sisters OF Mercy yesterday morning
c-ommemorated the silver jubilee OF Mother
Berchman OF their order. Solemn high
mass was celebrated by Father McGovern.
Father Jeanette being deacon and Father
Moriarty suhdeacon. Father Dowhns OF
Creighton college delivered a cuiogy on the
Sisters Of Mercy as an order and the char
ecter OF Mother BERGMAN in particular.
His acquaintance with Mother Berchman
dates back to the time when Bishop O'Con-
nor held jurisdiction over the Catholic
clergy Of Omaha. and Father Dowlihg re-
calls the high regard Bishop O'Connor ex-
pressed for the work OF Neither Berchnan
and her order. In those days conditions
here were such as TO render work for the
sisters very dificult. indeed, and the crude
quarters they were forced to occupy re-
qulred great and heroic sacrifice from the
refined women who had relinQuished home
comforts for the purpose Of devoting them
selves TO the education Of the young in
this city. Mother Berchman has had charge
Of the musical department OF the Convent
Of Mercy since coming here, and many OF
the young matrons OF this city have at some
time received instruction from her.
The following poem. written for the oc-
casion by Mrs. Charles Moriarty. one of her
pupils. was read in the convent refectory;
who bides his time. he tastes the sweet
OF honey In the safest tear.
God called her long ago. when life was
Upon the path OF hopeful beckonings.
She had not tasted failure in the things
Youth deems the best. So when her choice
was seen.
They even, who had graver steps i'm
periled,

She chose the lonely way but few MAJ
So near to Christ they almost touch Hts
So dear TO Christ that no one understands
Who dreams apart from them How can

Seeks only those who kneel in prayer and
praise.
But We. though far in grace, are near in
And learn much from her dignity of
mind,
And this: that 1t is better to be kind
II seems she Away knew usA always strove

Il was automatically announced yester-
day that arrangements for the establish
ment OF a large tannery in Omaha have
been completed. the company having been
organized. the building purchased and the
machinery ordered. z. B. Thaw Of Rich
mond, Va. who has been the promoter Of
the enterprise. said to The Bee man yes
terday morning
Il wish FIRST OF all TO correct the articles
published In the other papers Saturday. for
they we're false in nearly every particular.
Mr.. Holcombe has not gone to Atlanta to
interest capital there in the Omaha under
taking, the deal for the Boyd packing house
property is not hanging FIRE. my name is
not ]. II. Thaw. do not live on Douglas
street and l am not sick. I cant under
stand how the reporters made so many mis-
statements unless they merely guessed at
everything.
The plans for the establishment OF the
tsnnery in Omaha are completed, the Boyd
packing house property has been purchased.
the company is composed principally Of
Omaha men. Mr.. Holcombe has gone to At
lanta to engage expert help. the installa-
tion Of the machinery here will begin
within thirty days and the plant will be in
operation three months later. The concern
will be known as the Nebraska Tanning and
Manufacturing company and the capital
stock will be $4,000.
Eliminates Use of Bark.
The plant will be operated under the
Run tanoline process. which eliminates the
use Of bark and bark extracts. without
this process tanning could not be probably
carried on in this section Of the country,
for the cost Of shipping bark from the east
and south would be too great. b. the Run
process hides and pelts are tanned in one
third the time and at one-half the cost OF
the old process. This is no experiment. for
the Run process has been in successful
operation at Atlanta for nearly three years.
will begin operations here with from
thirty to forty employees, but expect 20 in
crease the force rapidly. as the capacity OF
the plant will be about 1000 hides and pelts
per day. and this will require about $50
w~orkmen."
P. f. Her is al the head Of the tannery
company and j. H.. Holcombe. an expert
tanner from Atlanta, will be the manager
OF the plant. Mr.. Thaw controls the Run
process in this and other countries.

THREATEN TO TIE UP CARS
santa Fe and other Western Train
men Vote on Strike Prop
osttion.

TOPEKA, Kan. Feb. 1.-The conductors
and trainmen on the western lines. among
them the Santa Fe. are voting on a propo-
sition for a general strike unless the rail-
roads accede to their demand for a read
iustment OF the wage schedule.
So far as can be learned the sentiment
appears to be favorable to a strike. al
though this is largely conjecture. as the
men keep their business pretty closely to
themselves.
The roads have all refused to meet a de-
mand for a 20 per cent increase, although
quite a number have offered to compro-
mise on a smaller percentage.
