the church. and when the ll.linlng
flashed il showed everything leaking
drencIled and fri Shtened. 1t was ter
ribie 70 see. Bat Zita knew nothing
L, ali about it. She never wakened nor
stirred IL her dreamless, tired sleep.
And when she woke in the morning
the candle was still burning in her
hand. For the angels had spread their
wings over her all the night, and had
sheltered her from the wind and rain,
and had kept the little candle from
going out. Zita rose wonderingly in
the rosy morning light. Then she
glanced down at her gown and felt
her braids Of long black hair. There
was not a rain drop upon them. And
she smiled softly to herself, and in
her heart thanked the good friends
who we're watching around her. she
knew, though she could nct see them.
This is how St. Zita made poetry
for herself amid life Of pans and
kettles, Of brooms and dish-waShlng.
And when she died a beautiful star
appeared in the sky over Bozzanello.
And it may be that this was the very
candle Of st. Zita which her angels
had set there to burn forever, in
spite of storm and rain, just as it did
that night. At all events, through all
these years, it has shed a CLEAN of
light for rs to read her charity and
pious faith, and it is just as bright
today as it was six hundred years ago.

him. He was taken TO the hospital at the
expense OF the smelling company and Is
being given every attention, but he has an

MORRIS THINKS ROOT LOSER
Believes BiIl in Legislature to Abolish
Charity board WIN he
Defeated.

General Secretary Morris Of the Asso-
ciated Charities has returned from Lin
coin, where he appeared before the COM
mittee on constitutional amendments and
federal relations to protest against Senator
Roots bill to abolish the State Board OF
Charity.
~ am hopeful Senator Roots bill will be
defeated and am inclined to think II will
be, as the real needs Of the State Board OF
Charity were presented to the committee
in a way that gave us encouragement q"
Mr.. Morris said.
The present attempt to abolish the board
arose from the state auditors interpre-
tatlon OF the law under which the board is
governed. It was reported. The omission
OF a semi-colon in the law made It impossi-
BILE for the state auditor to honor warrants
for expenses for the four advisory secre-
taries of the board. Mr. Harris maintains
that a slight change in that law will
straighten the whole matter. All members
OF the board except the secretary. who is
allowed 1890 year, serve without salary
but should. they contend. receive travelling
expenses for at least the four advisory
secretaries in visiting the various state
institutions.
Mr.. Morris maintains that to abolish the
board would be to place Nebraska out Of
the list of the twenty-five foremost states
having such boards. He also notes
the sum OF $1,6oi,000 for various state in
situations and in view Of the fact that there
$500 wards being, cared for by the state.
the needs for the board are real.

COLONEL JIM WAITS WINGS
MAYOR wishes He Could Fly Away
from Gas Tanks and Orr
dinances.


Mayor Dahlnian is beginning to wish ne
could fly to some land where gas tanks and
gas tank ordinances are not known. The
gas tank ordinance now on his desk await
ing his signature or veto is giving him more
anxiety than any measure he has had to do
with since he donned the mayors toga last
spring. All other questions just now are
but circumstances compared with the gas
tank question.
Friday afternoon the mayor went to
Twentieth and Center streets to make a
personal investigation of conditions there,
Sunday afternoon he will address a mass
meeting of south side citizens at Seven
teenth and Center streets on the gas tank
question.
Friday night the mayor dreamed he saw
100000 gas tanks in front of the city hall
The mayor will not act on the ordinance
until next Monday.
Petitions from citizens protesting against
the location of third gas tank at Twen-
tieth and Center streets are pouring into
the mayors Office, together with counter
petitions from citizens who believe the pub
lie interests would be conserved by allowing
the gas company TO enlarge its present
plant and thus preclude the possibility of
a shortage of gas supply. Committees are
waiting on the mayor the ONCE having
some one in waiting nearly all the time.
Councilman Bridges, whose gas tank ordi-
nance was defeated. walked into the may
or's ONCE Friday morning with a large roll
of paper.
Here. Mr.. Mayor. is a petition from 4os
bona fide property owners protesting
against the Brucker ordinance and hoping
you will veto It," Mr. Bridges said. Larger
netitiona from citizens all over fha ctfv
have been received urging that the gas
company be allowed TO proceed with pro-
posed improvements at Twentieth and Cen
ter streets.
The mayor is wearing a worried look.

LOSES EARNINGS Of A uFE-TI

W. q. Blvens Of Pottawattamie county,
Iowa, was in Omaha Friday morning con-
sultinR with the United States authorities
with q view to attempting to recover 1900
cold cash out OF which he alleges he has
been swindied through a real estate trans
action.
Mr. Bivens says in February, 1906. he was
caioled by three individuals In Council
Blunfs into depositing with them 500 in
cash--his hard-earned savings for several
years--for the northeast quarter of section
8, township 80 range is, in Haskell county,
Kansas
The consideration was TO be 81. 200 and the
proposition looked pretty good to Mr.. Blv-
ems so he innocenty gave up 500 cash
and his note for 500. secured by mortgage
on the premises. He was given contract
for deed signed by one Mel r. Richards
Of saiina, Kan, and though he was shown
a deed for the premises he did not receive
the deed, as II was told him that it would
have to be recorded. So Mr.. Biyens paid
down the cash for the recording fees in
addition 70 his 5000 cash and the $40 note.
After he had paid the cash Mr.. Richards.
SO Bivens alleges, had occasion to go into
another room and has not shown up since.
The cash was paid to Richards through an
alleged real estate agent at Council Bluffs,
but he did not receive any further receipts
than the contract for the deed signed by
Mel II. Richards.
After waiting about year for the re
turn Of the deed, Mr.. Bivens wrote to Santa
Fe the county seat OF Haskell county,
making inquiry as to the land and was ia
formed by the county clerk Of that county
that no such described land in that county
was ever held in the name OF Mel e.
Richards Neither could any one at saiina,
Kan. give Mr.. Bivens any Information Of
Mel q. Richards in that vicinity
Agent Rubs Il In.
Then Mr.. Biveus went to the real estate
agent at Council Bluffs who brought him
ana Mel e. Richards together, and who
figured in the transaction all the way
through, and insisted upon an explanation.
This agent expressed great surprise over
the outcome of the transaction and sug
gested that Mr.. Bivens cough up another
800 to employ a detective to hunt up Mr..
Richards and make him disgorge the $500
and the note for 500. Mr.. Blvens gave the
agent so cash at that time and during the
last summer succeeded in saving enough
OF his earnings to pay the other $50. but
still Mr.. Richards has not been heard from
nor has the $500 or the note.
Bivens is a teamster, about 60 years old
and has sacrificed all his savings in the
deal, and now comes to the United States
authorities asking them to help him out
under the present land fraud investigations
conducted in this state. Unfortunately he
| had to be informed that he would have to
tell his troubles to the United States courts
of Iowa or Kansas. as Nebraska has no.
| jurisdiction in the case. fs
