DAVIES FENCE MAY REMAIN
Iron Enclosure, Against which Pro-
tests Were Filled, Allowed to
stand for Preaenf.

Residents in the vicinity of Twenty-sixth
and Charles streets objected strongly when
James A. Davies started in to build an
iron fence four feet tall around his lots
at the northeast corner Of the intersection
and took in all the space outside OF the
property lines within one foot Of the side
walk They declared the fence would ruin
the appearance OF the streets which are
not now encumbered by fences running out
beyond the lot boundaries So intense did
their objection become they had Mr.
Davies. who runs an employment agency.
arrested. He protested he had been given
authority to build the fence in the street
by the council but was taken to the city
hall to make good his claim. He made II
| good and Chief Donahue ordered his i'm
mediate release.
The resolution authorizing the fence was
adopted by the council at the last meet
ing and was introduced by Councilman
Schroeder. 1t provides the fence may re-
main until the council orders 1t removed.
AS many interested residents have called

is not unlikely that the removal will be

woman OF evident refinement and education,
went to work in local box factory until her
tender hands bled and she was compelled
TO quit the work. Then she spent what
few dollars she had left and, with more
false pride than discretion, slept two
nights in a boxcar in the railroad yards
before she mustered up enough courage to
confide her troubles to anyone.
The woman was taken to the matron's
department at the city Jail, cared for by
Matron Gibbons several days and secured
employment through Superintendent Nor
ris OF the Associated Charities. Mrs. Clancy
is now working In the home Of a, prominent
| Omaha man and her intentions are to work
until she can accumulate enough money
| so she may return to her parents without
being dependent on them.
Mr. and Mrs Clancy lived some weeks al
the Union hotel after coming to Omaha.
/ 1t is said Clancy was without work most o.

he was going out to find work. That was

STRANGER ATTEMPTS SUICIDE
Found in semi-COnsciOus Condition
with Several Gashes I'm His
Throat.

Patrick McKenna was found under the
Burlington viaduct at Third and Hickory at
7 o'clock last night In a semi-conseious
state, with nearly a dozen cuts on his
throat. His hands were swollen and bruised
and IL appeared that he had fallen from
the approaches Of the viaduct, alighting on
his hands Near the place was found a
razor with blood stains upon 1t and a tuft
of gray hair II is thought that the man
had tried to commit suicide while seated on
the edge OF the viaduct or while leaning
against the rail. 1t appeared that his
courage failed him when he felt the keen
edge for none OF the cuts are very deep
though one extends almost from ear to ear
McKenna is a man of 80 or more and has
the appearance OF a laborer. According to
his ineoheTent talk when brought to the
police station he came here from Chicago
last Monday. He was seen in the vicinity
OF the Willow Springs brewery during the
afternoon. Nothing OF value was found In
his effects, and there is nothing to give any
clue to his life In Chicago. He looks like a
man who had endured much exposure and
! hard work. His injuries were attended at
the police station and he was given a cot TO
! sleep on. 1t IL thought he is suffering from
some ailment other than his wounds, but In
his comatose state little can be done until
more definite symptoms develop.

ONE MAN ALREADY ENLISTED
First Naval Recruit IL Sent to Re-
ceivinE Ship Yards at
Norfolk.

The permanent naval recruiting depot in
the postofice building place is developing
into busy establishment The recruiting
party is now complete, with the exception
OF the hospital steward, and consists OF
Lieutenant Commander II. NJ. Signor, As
sistant Surgeon c. X. winn, Chief Boat
Swain's mate s. Caravan and Chief Yoe-
man w. B. Wood.
One man already has enlisted and sent
to the receiving ship at Norfolk navy yard,
Va. Another passed his final examination
and will be sent there Saturday. The
first enlistment is that of c. A. Southland
OF Omaha, as apprentice seaman.
Lieutenant Commander Signor said Thurs
day morning:
I'VE are particularly anxious to obtain
| re-enlistments in order to get and continue
! experienced men in the navy. Excellent
| inducements are offered for establishments
the parties receiving extra pay for re-en-
| listing, and are at liberty to re-enlist within
| four months from their discharge and will
| get back pay for that period. 1t is the
! rule in the navy to give men thirty days
leave each year, with pay and the man
| who serves his entire enlistment of four
years without availing of his leave gets
four months credit and pay on re-enlisting
With the new ships now coming into COM
| mission and building there are about 1900
more men needed. Young men, p years and
even under, are preferred, as they are more
susceptible to training into good seamen.
We, Of course, take older men, up to Sc
A., years, and especially want good mechanics.
The pay is excellent, and opportunities for
promotion were never better than now"
Chief Yoeman Wood was asked relative
to the treatment of men in the navy. He
| said:
II have been in the navy for a number
of years as an enlisted man, and can say,
! advisedly, that the treatment of all classes
of seamen is excellent, and 1 certainly
have nothing 20 complain of. The naval
recruit is given every consideration that
discipline and merit will warrant, and II
lies with the man himself as to what his
treatment may be. II he becomes dissi
pated and unreliable he is vigorously dis.
ciplined and every effort will be made tC
make man of him. II he aspires tC
learn. devotes himself to his duties AND
observes the rules OF the ship, he will find
his berth an easy and pleasant one. Pro
motion comes readily and a good man 1:

NO CALL FOR TIE JNGRApEp
superintendent Davidson Thinks bet
ter Not Attempt such schools
Until Demand Arises.

Superintendent Davidson has not made up
his mind as to the wisdom of establishing
an ''unclassifed' or "ungraded" school as
recommended by the womans club He
says:
Il gather the idea is to have a separate
school that would occupy a position half
way between the ordinary public schools
and the detention home OF the juvenile
court. 1t would. in reality, be sort Of
probation school for delinquent pupils Of
all characters. 1t may be conditions de-
mand such an institution in Omaha and 1t
may not be the case.I h,Eio not think any
such school should be undertaken unless a
necessity exists for it There Is always the
danger in such institutions Of the stigma
attached to things of the, kind. Could this
stigma and the sense Of isolation be over
come?
Il should not attempt to express an
opinion for or against the resolution until
had devoted considerable study to the
question"

OMAHA BETTER THAN DENVER
McVain Thinks Commercial Bodies
and Newspapers of Colorado
City Take Second Place.

E. J. ,aMcVann. who returned Thursday
morning from the annual convention of the
Colorado Association of Commercial clubs.
says the Nebraska commercial organiza-
tions are superior to those OF the Centen-
NAL state This is particularly true in
making comparison between those of
Denver and Omaha. In Denver there are
four organizations which work for the
same end, but do not pull together, the
Chamber of Commerce, the Convention
league, the Hotel and Restaurant Keepers
association, and the Real Estate exchange
In Omaha the place of three of these Is
taken by the Commercial club, and much
more is accomplished than II there were
other organizations with the same Par-
poses In view.
AT the same time" said Mr.. Mcvann,
Colorado is thoroughly alive on the ques-
ton of advertising and the state is ahead
of Nebraska in this. 1 made a point to
pick up advertising pamphlets at the con-
vention and / brought home forty or fifty,
exclusive of railroad advertisements. Every
county, every irrigated district, almost
every town of any size, is advertised In
an admirable manner. The Colorado As
ISOLATION of Commercial clubs has in Den
yer, where the central office is located.

where all the products of the state are
displayed and the state advertised a
whole. No advertisement pertaining ia
Denver in particular is allowed"
While Mr.. McVann was in Denver, a
business mems league was organized. It's
object is to take up matters not already
handled extensively by the other organiza-
/ lions. among other things to secure winter

Davidson. But at the Kellom school /

ONLY A SUGGESTION
But it Has Proven of Interest and
Value to Thousands.

Common sense would suggest that II one
wishes to become heshy and plump II can
only result from the food we eat and digest
and that food should be albuminous OF
fesh-forming food, like eggs, beefsteak.
and cereals; in other words the kinds OF
food that make flesh are the foods which
form the greater part OF our daily bills OF
fare.
But the trouble is that while we eat
enough, and generally too much, the stom-
ach from abuse and oveFwork, does not
properly digest and assimilate IL, which Is
the reason so many people remain thin and
under weight; the digestive organs do not
completely digest the hesh-forming beef
steak, eggs and similar wholesome food.
There are thousands OF such who are
really confirmed dyspeptics, although they
may have no particular pain or inconvenl-
ence from their stomachs.
II such persons would lay their prejudices
aside and make a regular practice OF tax
ing after each meal one or two Of Stuarts
Dyspepsia Tablets the food would be
quickly and thoroughly digested, because
these tablets contain the natural peptOnes
and diastase which every weak stomach
lacks. and by supplying this want the

Postoffice department is anxious to AFFORD

with rural free delivery service is that we

All observing people must have
noticed a growing sentiment in this
! country in favor OF using only put-up
foods and medicines Of known COM
position. IL is but natural that one
should have some interest in the com
position Of that which he is expected
70 swallow, whether il be food, drink
or medicine. This sentiment has re-
suited in the introduction in the legis-
latures OF many of the States, as also
in the Congress of the United States,
bills providing for the publication Of
formula or ingredients on wrappers
! and labels Of medicines and foods put
up for general consumption.
Recognizing this growing disposition
on the part Of the public generally,
and satisfied that the fullest publicity

Prescription" for weak over-worked,

valid women.
This bold and out-spoken movement
on the part of DR.. Pierce, has, by
showing exactly what his well-known
medicines are composed of, completely
disarmed all harping critics who have
heretofore unjustly attacked them. A
little pamphlet has been compiled
from the standard medical authorities
of all the several schools of practice
showing the strongest endorsements by
leading medical writers of the severa
ingredients which enter into Doctor
Pierce's medicines and recommending
these ingredients for the. cure of the
diseases for which DR.. Pierce's medi
cines are advised. A copy of this littl'
booklet is mailed free to any one desiring
