a Fall.

Because he obeyed the instructions Of an
elevator boy and got severe fall. Edward
Quinn has begun suit for $4,000 in district
court against James Neville, owner Of the
building at the northeast corner OF Six
teeuth and Harvey streets.
Quinn says he was going down in the els-
vator one night about a year ago when
the machine stopped between floors. The
bottom OF the elevator WAS about two
and a half feet below the top OF the ele-
vatpr door, Quinn started 10 crawl out
through the opening onto a high stool,
when the elevator boy suddenly called TO
him TO let so OF the lever. Quinn said he
did not have hold the lever. but was
grasping the side OF the cage TO steady
himself He let go, however, and fell "a

Hundred Thousand Dollars Will BE
Capital 60 Buy stock in the
Concerns Locating
in Omaha.

Members Of the Commercial club COM
mittee appointed to organize a stock com
pany whose object will be 10 encourage
new industries to locate in Omaha received
formal notification OF their appointment
Thursday. The committee consists Of ]. w.
Carpenter, J. f. Baum. q. T. Lindsay, c.
NJ. Wilhelm and william Hayden, the first
three having constituted the committee
which formulated the plan for the corpora
ton and the other two having been added
at the last meeting of the executive com
mlttee Of the club. Mr.. Carpenter will
leave the city on a vacation In a few days,
but he will ask Mr.. Baum to act as chair
man Of the committee during his absence,
and it s planned to have the FIRST meeting
within a week.
The committee in its report, which was
adopted at the last meetinsNof the execu-
tive committee, declared itself as opposed
to any general plan that involves the Civ
ing Of money or property as bonuses for
the location of new concerns. 1t suggested
that no manufacturing concerns should be
encouraged whose product would not find
ready sale In the locality OF which Omaha
| is the distributing center. The best way ia
encourage desirable enterprises, says the
reports Of the committee, is to subscribe
to a limited amount of preferred stock OF
| special capital in each concern, under such
restrictions as will insure safety to the In
vestors and at the same time put behind
the new manufacturing concern a loca
! interest and influence which will tend Il
! increase its chances Of success.
| The plan is to organize a corporation witt
! 100000 capital, which will buy stock II
new concerns not exceeding 5 per cent Of
| the corporations capital in any one month
in no case more than 10 per cent in The
! aggregate, and never in any case more
| than one-third of the paid up capital o.
| the concern which is to be helped. In re
| turn for the money from the corporation
the other concerns are TO issue preferred
stock, which shall agree to retire at o.
before the end of five years, at par, will
accrued dividends. The corporation lie 4
be given the privilege OF selling its stool
in the other concerns at any time at no
less than par. 1t is figured that this pro
vision will always keep money in the treas
ury.

al alleged circular from the manufac-

the courts, and the Dayton people have
S250,00O libel suits pending against
the attacking concern. Representations
have beon made to Mayor Da1lman That
pending the settlement of the trouble in
Omaha no sales can be made in Ne
brasks, because Of the publicity that has
been produced. One big Omaha grocery
is Withholding an order for twenty-five
scales.
Mayor Dahlman says:
The fault that seems to lie in the
scale under nre is that it weighs in frac-
tons and computes on the side nearest

very charming house Jackets for girls and
one OF the most practical for the home
dressmaker is shown here. II is the es-
sence of simplicity. having no contrasting
ella boration OF any kind save the ribbon
girdling the waist. It consists OF a pointed
yoke from which depends the full gathered
sack. The deep collar is extremely grace
full. being created by tucking the straight
piece OF the material to a depth Of two
or three inches, and allowing the fullness
therefrom TO provide ripple for the edges.
Two narrow tueks on the edge assist the
! fare, and the same is used to construct
| the fril at the wrist. A pretty challis OF

while washing fabrics are also suitable
