Baked LORves of stan of Life.

The bread baking contest at the Audi
torium this afternoon has aroused the bread
bakers in the homes of Omaha as no
contest of the kind has ever done before
This is due largely to the fact that the
cash prizes offered for the best loaves of
bread are unusually liberal and because the
starting up of the Updike Touring mill in
Omaha has created a widespread interest
among Omaha people TO show to the
world that -four made in Omaha is as
good II not better than any in this or any
other country. From the number OF tele-
phone calls regarding the particulars of
the contest Manager Gillian said last night
that he would not be at all SURPRISED to
see anywhere from 800 to 500 loaves OF bread
delivered at the Auditorium this afternoon
by ladies who wish to compete for the
prizes.
Next In point OF interest is the baby
show. which takes place on Friday after
noon at 2;3O. A large number of beautiful
babies and proud mothers will be on hand
to claim the cash prizes. Ten dollars in
gold will be given the mother Of the pref
test baby, IS for the second and SO for

sTICKNEY FOR NATIONAL BANK
President OF Great Western Railway
Makes Suggestion to Retrieve
Stringency.

ST. PAUL. Nov. 6. - President A. b.
Stickney Of the Chicago Great Western
railway in published interview advocates
a national bank in which the government
shall deposit its treasury funds He said:
THE official reports OF the United States
treasury shows that on last Thursday.
October 81, there was locked up in the sub
treasures, idle and useless, the enormous
sum of S127.170,O5L64 of actual cash. while
all the banks in all the reserve cities of
the United States had suspended cash
payments and the movement of the crops
had stopped and laborers are compelled to
accept checks for wages instead Of cash,
all for want of currency. which want of
currency the New York banks are trying
to relieve by importing about sSOOOO,OOO of
gold or about one-quaTtep OF the amount
held in the treasury idle and useless.
Can any system of government bank
ing be conceived which would produce
more absurd results?
LET us have a national bank which is
not only good enough for the people to
deposit their money In, but is also good
enough for the government to deposit it's
money in"

Through the encouragement of the raj

larly true of Omaha, with its immense
smelling works, splendid river, great mill
tary posts and the stock yards Many trsv.
elers would be delighted to stop over in
Omaha for a few days could stop-over
privileges be obtained on their tickets. We
have arranged for such a ticket, which Is
known as the coupon ticket, permitting the
traveller to stop over at any point he de-
sires. These constitute q long coupon
ticket and the stop-over destination ticket
Is torn OF just as any ordinary coupon
whereby the traveller can stop at intermedi-
ate stations or cities for any reasonable
length Of time and the ultimate destination
OF his ticket be not impaired. We have
made a great success Of these tickets dur
ing the past season along the Santa Fe
route, and now we are proposing to utilize
the Union Pacific and Northwestern for the
coming season. We shall in the Hotel Bull

and about $50 bars, and Newcastle county,
with population OF about 1900 and about

RAYMOND HITct tcocK APPEARS
Actor Long ThonEt Missing Presents
Himself at Criminal Court
BuildinR.

NEW YORK, Nov. 6-Raymond Hitch
cock, the actor who disappeared several
days ago after he had been indicted on
charges preferredg by several young girls,
appeared at the criminal court building
today and went to the ONCE OF the district
attorney. Hitchcock Is under bond TO ap-
pear in court this afternoon.
Hitchcock was arraigned upon only one
OF the six indictments against him, TO
which he pleaded not guilty and furnished
bail. He was paroled in custody Of his
counsel upon the other five. His counsel
said the actor had not been out of New
York, but had been suffering from nervous
prOstration as q result OF the charges.
This, he said, was the first day he had
been able TO got out.
Hitchcock looked pale and hsggard and
showed signs OF illness. He said he had
decided to face his aecuser and try to win
back the confidence OF his friends and the
public.
II am Innocent he said, land the only
way for mo to prove II is TO stand trial
am prepared 70 fight It out now, and I'll
go through with it.
While Hitchcock was in court his wife
remained I'm the district attorneys office
and in a semi-hystefcai condition,
Since Hitehcock's isappearance the po-
lice of the entire q astern section of the
United States and Canada have been
searching for him. 9ut absolutely nothing
of his whereabouts was known to the pub
lie until he appeared at the Criminal Court
building today. He went directly 10 the
district attorneys once, from whence, ac-
companied by his wife and counsel, he was
taken to the court of general sessions
where bail was fixed at $500.
The first intimation of trouble came sew
eral months ago, when Hitchcock was ap-
pearing in the leading role IN "a Yankee
Tourist" through the publication of a
story in a local newspaper containing prac-
tically the same allegations as those that
led to the indictments. No action of any
kind was taken at that time, however, and
It was not until the opening of the present
theatrical season, which found Hitchcock
again appearing in "A Yankee Tourist, o
that the storm broke. The FIRST real sen
satlon came when the actor caused the
arrest ma charge of blackmail of a
brother of one of the young girls whose
name had been mentioned in the charges
against Hitchcock A few days later
Hitchcock was summoned to the office OF
the district attorney and was arrested on
charge Of criminal assault. Two days
subsequently, while he was at liberty on
BAIL the indictments were returned by the
grand jury and almost simultaneously he

Congressman Burton made considerable
gains over the vote OF two years ago. when
William II. Boyd was the republican can
didate, but the gain was not sufficient to
overcome the strong Johnson lead.
Following the recollection of Mayor john
son, the Cleveland Electric Railway COM
pany again resumed selling tickets at the
old rate of eleven for 80 cents. For a
month prior to the election the company
sold tickets at the rate OF seven for %
cents. upon which basis they asked a
renewal OF their franchises. Mayor John
son was elected upon a straight 3-cent
platform. It is probable that the Cleve-
land Electric railway win keep the higher
rate of fare in force during the remainder
of the life Of their franchises. The question
OF anhexing Coilinwood, suburb, to
Cleveland. was carried by large majority
at yesterdays election.
The chief feature following the an
