in your paper to voice my sentiments. to-

In the first place. MI Dahlman does not
think It out OF the way for a man to get
drunk. for he Gays when a man IL COM
mitted simply for being drunk, etc. a
fine example for our young men. when
even the mayor, from whom one looks for
a good example, says II is nothing out OF
the way for a man to get drunk. or
course. a mans actions are always justi-
ned in his own eyes but not by long
shot in the eyes OF the citizens Of Omaha
in this case. There Is absolutely no ex-
cuse for a man getting uruux and when
man takes ones part who does he en-
oourages drunkenness, from which most
crimes originate.

voted for. because every one knew the
principles Mr.. Dahlman stood for. and II
Is not surprising that our city AFFAIRS in
regard to crime are such as they are.

BEEMER'S HOUNDS DO WELL
Dogs at Penitentiary Successful in
Running Down Convicts
Who Escape.

In view OF the present agitation favoring
the keeping of bloodhounds by the city for
use In tracing criminals Sheriff Mcdonald
is interested in the experience of Warden
Beemer. who just recently got three hounds
for use at the penitentiary. Though he
has had them only short time they have
assisted in recspturins two negroes who
escaped from the prison and have proven
valuable in some tests made by Mr..
Beemer. '' es'
Shortly after the dogs were secured a
practical test was made. A man was sent
out from the penitentiary with orders to
do what he could to throw the hounds of
the scent A few hours later the dogs
were turned loose on his trail The man
crossed and recrossed the bottom country
around the penitentiary, crossed a creek
several times. doubled back on his trail
and resorted to the usual tricks to beat the
hounds. Finally he climbed a tree, where
the dogs cornered him in a short time
Not long after that they were put to real
use Two negroes who were working with
a gang outside the walls got away and
their absense was not discovered for some
time. Two pups were put on the trail and
they followed II In a zigzag course until
they fell exhausted. Then the old hound
was put on and In a short time 1t came
upon one of the negroes in hiding. Then
the hounds doubled back to where the two
convicts parted company and in a short
time the second was cornered also
The greatest difficulty Warden BeemeI
has had with them Is in keeping them ir
trim for hard run They are very savage
and for this reason are hard to handle
They should be given hard run every day
or two. II they are not exercised regu-
larry they are likely to exhaust themselve,
when they go out on a hard chase.
