BRAIN CONFESSES
TO |NGEND|AR|SM
POINTS OUT TO POLICE PLACES
HE FIRED
Authorities Will Endeavor to Have
Him Punished, Though Insanity
Is Suspected-other Pyro-
maniacs Wanted

Friday night fires, but manifestly coula
not have been concerned IN SUNDAY
nights incendiary fires.
Among the other CONGREGATIONS that
were caused by him, it is alleged, We're
the two fires breaking out i'll one night
at the store of II. Raphael Il Co., on
South Main street and the one on Los
Angeles street that burned the building
occupied by the Standard Woodenware
company and did damage to the overall
factory of Brownstein, Newmark ~
Lewis.
The detectives were much aided in
their investigation by the identification
of Brain by e. B. Russell, druggist at
2314 South Union avenue, where Brain
telephoned to fire headquarters after
setting fire to the tinshop at 1906 Union
avenue. Mr. Russell called at the pu-
lice station and positively identified
Grain as the Wild-eyed fellow who
rushed into his store Thursday night to
telephone news of the fire which he had
set himself.
Caught in Alley
Brain was arrested Friday night in
an alleyway off Fifth street near the
spice and coffee store of G.. w. Stoll
& Co.. where a small fire was dis
covered that night.
officer Hoosick, who made the ar
rset, thought the young man was act
ing suspiciously and had him booked
at the police station as a suspected IN
cendiary.
1t has developed since yesterday
morning that Brain was charged with
setting fires in Chicago and through
the efforts of his father the case was
not prosecuted on the understanding
that the boy would be placed in some
institution. The family claimed that a
blow on the head, received in early
childhood, had made the lad irresponsi-
BILE and a strong effort will be made
to have the fire fiend confined in an
asylum rather than prosecuted for ar
son.
At Venice, Too
The detectives have additional infor-
nation that Brain attempted TO set
several fires at Venice and ever since
he arrived in Los Angeles. the degen-
crate has spent most of his time de-
vising schemes for setting fires all over
the city.
While the detectives have made a
great catch in landing Brain. the pa
trolmen are still on the lookout for
other possible pyromaniacs and several
suspects have been booked a. the GEN.
trail station.
E. T. Bradley, a negro, arrested a 5
a drunk, has been suspected of being
concerned in some of the recent fires
and j. Henderson, arrested yesterday
morning while wandering aimlessly
about Pico street, may also be exam
ined as to his incendiary proclivities.
However, in Brain the police think
they have the real author of the great
er part of the recent fires and while
other insane persons may attempt an
occasional fire, their efforts are sporadic
and lack the insane zeal and energy
of Brain. who rivals the notorious Au-
gust Hansen of Chicago, who set forty
fires in one day.

has also secured a score or more men for

In this connection 81 is worthy OF note
that In transferring the duty OF collating
ana publishing consular reports from the
State department to the Department OF
Commerce and Labor a wise move was
made. That most valuable of government
publications. known as the Daily Consular
Reports, is published under the direct su-
pervision OF Major John NJ. Carson and
Mr.. z. J. Gibson. The former was for a
quarter OF a century the Washington cor
respondent OF the Philadelphia Ledger, and
he was for several years during thot
period clerk to the committee on ways

period the Washington correspondent of
the Philadelphia Press Both gentlemep

and there are none better posted on the

Daily Consular Reports are recognized by
manufacturers and exporters as Of the

LOYALTY WILL BE wATCHwoRD
Motto of Omaha for Baptist Young

Loyalty" the motto displayed on the
banners all over town to welcome the COM
ing of the young people to the meeting
of the Baptist Young Peoples union in
this city this week, was taken as the
theme of a sermon Sunday morning by
Rev. J. w. Conley at the First Baptist
church, the text being whatsoever will
confess me before men him will 1 also
confess before my father which is in
heaven"
This word loyalty will be displayed in
Omaha this week as it never was before"
said DIR. Conley. THE street cars, wagons
and homes will fly the banners bearing
the inscription, Loyalty 10 Christ II
we are ever to become noted for our
loyalty 1t will be loyalty to a person and
that person should be Jesus Christ. Many
things In life we cannot understand, but
we can understand a person such as Jesus
Christ
The word loyalty directs attention to
the very center of Christian life The
power of Christianity can be found in
the person of Jesus Christ and in the true
Christian life is faithfulness to a purpose.
We owe allegiance not to an institution,
not to a creed, not to a form of worship,
not to historic descent, but 10 the person
| of Jesus Christ Loyalty implies inteli-
gence and study of the word of God. 10y
atty must have courage in its makeup.
We must magnify Christ He really is
and put our thoughts on Him as He is.
III we wish to be loyal to Christ we must
recognize the features of His life frst as
a Savior of men, second as a teacher and
| third an interpreter of life. Life is the
riddle of the universe ana He alone car
tell us the causes of lifes disorders. Lastly
we must recognize Him as commander
He is our prophet, priest and king, all are
| combined In Him"

MILL CITY VIEW HILL LINE
Minneapolis Men See in Ashland Cutoff
Biz Feeder Of Grain for Il,
OMAHA DEALERS THINK DIFFERENTLY
Gate city Elevator Men Regard Il as
Another Opportunity 60 Reach
seabOard Markets Via
Duluth.

Grain men OF Minneapolis think they see
in James J. Hilrs new cutoff from Ash
land to Sioux City a great help to the grain
market of Minneapolis. They think they
see In that line an EFFORT on the part OF
Mr. Hill to capture for Minneapolis the inn
mense tonnage OF grain grown in the east
ern part OF Nebraska on the Burlington
and the CUTOFF. They claim that while Mr..
Stickney with his Great Western has been
trying to build up Omaha as a grain mar
ket. the Great Northern has quietly been
at work on the Ashland loop which, by
way OF that otherwise unimportant station,
has connected the Burlington and Great
Northern. opened up a more direct route
to Minneapolis, made possible closer CO.
operation and quicker transfer Of north
bound freight and made the Great North
ern powerful competitor for the Mime
apolis haul on grain that in greater part
has heretofore gone east to Chicago"
That is the way the grain men at Mime
apolis look at the situation, but the grain
men OF Omaha think they see in the
building Of the road another outlet for
Nebraska grain and that is via Duluth,
where Mr.. Hill will get the haul all the
way by means OF his own boats to Buffalo.
To carry out this plan, the Burlington and
Great Northern have announced the same
rates from Duluth 20 Nebraska points as
apply from Chicago and these rates I'M
doubtedly will be reversed.
The Burlington and Great Northern now
own lines from Sioux City to Ashland,
from Sioux City to O'Neill and TO Niobrara
and Sioux City to wllmar and can get a
direct haul of this from Sioux City TO
Minneapolis and Duluth Chicago has con-
trolled this business for some time. OF late
the south has been getting a large share
and now a new outlet has been sprung to
! the north.
Instead OF being Jealous Of Minneap polls
in the new position It will occupy in refer
ence to this grain which undoubtedly will
move to the north in large quantities, the
Omaha dealers have tried to prevail upon
the Burlington to build a connecting link
| with the new CUTOFF that grain from this
market may also seek an outlet to the
| north.

accomplish by preaching the gospel in the
city Of the pagan Nero? The Romans
would make sport Of him. they would feed
him to the beasts, they would light their
arena with his burning body. Did Paul
realize the extent of the work he was to
start? Did he have visions of churches and

name for himself? No, he was inspired by
one divine purpose-he must preach Christ
