If there is an extra session OF con-
gress next fall Congressman Walter l.
smith will not likely be able to assist
the state in the Tom Dennison case
The next term of the Montgomery
county court opens October 10 which
is also about the date that has been
discussed as the most likely time for q
special session of congress. In case
he should be called to Washington by
his duties as congressman, however,
the state would secure some other able
lawyer to assist in the case. 1t was al
first the common opinion seemingly
that the winning of the suit would
greatly strengthen Dennison in Oma-
ha Now that the Omaha Commercial
Club has taken action by resolution
that feeling is not so common. "A 70
cent report from Washington stated
the president had decided to not call
the extra session until after the Mo-
vember elections.-Ed.]

Dick Pray, of Decatur county, has
been given a parole by Governor Cum
minis with the usual good behavior
clause, and is now living on an eighty
acre farm west of Van Vert. Pray is
one Of the Frank Greenland gang of
that county and his case is one OF the
greatest cures effected by a peniten-
tiary term that has ever been brought
about. Pray was convicted for setting
fire to rival livery barn to that of
Greenland or of having a guilty knowl-
edge of it's burning and was sentenced
to one year in the penitentiary. He
served three months and sthen got out
on bond on securing a rehearing from
the supreme court. Yesterday he was
given a parole. Pray had not been in
the penitentiary but a couple of weeks
before he wrote letter to his wife,
telling her to fix up the children and
send them to Sunday school, that he
had seen enough of prison life, that
he didn't want any of his children to
follow in his footsteps. Immediately
after. he got out on bond he bought
an eighty-acre farm and settled on it
and began farming Now he can't speak
of the penitentiary without crying and
is most completely cured of leading q
criminal life. He has turned against
the Greenland gang and his testimony
against them has led to insurance
companies getting suits set aside
where money has been paid to Green
land Every one Of his neighbors. the
county attorney and the judge recon-
mended his parole.

SWEATSHOPS IN FIFTH AV.
Cloak and Garment Makers Invade New
York's Once Exclusive Thorofare.
New York Press

New York Press. -
Within brief period Of two years
the western side Of Fifth avenue, be-
tween Fourteenth street and Twenty
third street, has undergone a more re-
markable change than any other ,por-
ton Of. that once exclusive thorofare
has witnessed in it's history. From BE-
ing the site Of the residences Of some
Of the oldest families in New York it
has been given over to sweatshops'
Of the better class. And it is conser-
vative estimate to say that every morn
ing from the teeming East Side there
are from 5000 to 10000 cloak and gar
ment makers who come to work in this
section Of the city that only a few
years ago was the scene OF the most
exclusive life and social entertainment
in the town.
| So pronounced is this change that
only four private dwellings now remain
in those nine blocks-one at the south
west corner Of Seventeenth street and
Sthree on the block between Twenty
first and Twenty second streets: Gone
| is the Nielsen house, at Fifteenth
street; gone is the Breese house, around
the corner to the west, where a little
coterie Of bohemians used to give par
/ ties that were the talk Of the town.
The Union club, with it's solid citizens
looking out Of the big windows at the
passing show of smartly dressed men
i and women, is now but memory. The
afternoon g procession of elderly dowa,
gers in aristocratic old barouches that
4 were the outward signs Of the family &
social elevation and age, has given way
