intendent under Colonel Dickey, Mr.. Nell
son had opportunities to learn the business.
He remained assistant superintendent under
the late Charles r. Horton. and a week
ago, when Superintendent S, e. Leonard
went to Denver, Mr.. Nelson was called 10
the superintendency and was ready He
had been preparing for It for eighteen
years.
Superintendent Nelson is one Of those
kind OF men who make haste slowly; he Is
deliberate and thorough. He is pleasing to
meet and is extremely modest about talk
ing OF his rise from a messenger boy to
superintendent. He said he had ambitions
when he started in as messenger boy. but
when asked how II all came about he was
at a loss to answer more than to say he
worked hard and diligently.
Going back to Mr.. Nelson's early life,
before he was even messenger boy, II was
learned that the boy always managed to
earn and save something from the time he
was years of age. Even at tender age
he became imbued with a high regard for
time and money, not In a misery sense, but
in that splendid healthy sense which stood
him in stead all along in after years.

Not safe to Kick.

These Moors are like no Mohammedans I
have yet met. They know but little of the
Christian world, and they think themselves
far superior 20 us, In many other Moslem
countries the people are servile and they
bow down to the Christian. An English
man thinks nothing of kicking a Moham-
medan East Indian out of his way and the
Frenchman does much the same in Algeria.
l should not like to risk kicking the fat
bare legs of one Of these Moors or even OF
looking at his yelled women as they pass
through the streets I have been in Santa
Sophia, the famed mosque of Constanti-
nopIe. where 10000 Mohammedans were
praying there, during one night in Rama

go through their antics in the alabaster
mosque in Cairo, and have put my hands

lations 10 heaven, and which now stands
in the mosque OF Omar in Jerusalem. In

A Religion. PennIe.

At the same time one cannot help re-
speCting these Moors for the way they
observe their religion. They read their
Korans in their stores while at their bust
ness and when the time comes for prayer
they drop everything else and attend to
that l am awakened every morning by
the shrill loud voice of the muezzn on the
tower of a mosque near my hotel, calling
the people to get up and worship He
says In Arabic:
Prayer is better than sleepl Come to
prayer! Come to prayer!"
And adds to 1t, God is great, and Mo-
manned is His prophet This cry is
heard five times day all over Tangier,
and at such times one sees the men pre-
pairing for their devotions. Many go TO
the mosques, carrying prayer rugs under
their arms as they walk through the street.
They take off their shoes before they en-
ter, and wash their hands, feet and faces
before going in. Nearly every mosque has
a well or fountain connected with 1t, and
a common sight is to see a long-bearded
man sitting over a basin and splashng
or primping preparatory to praying.
These Mohammedans think that they
have the only true religion on earth. They
believe that we are already damned, and
a sheik who had formed a great friend
ship for one of our American consuls illus
trated his idea of our future by once say
ing to him in plying tones
Indeed, 1t seems sad that so good fell
low as you must go to hell"

whose troops fought the English 80 brayely

is an unsettled feeling just now in the
whole MohAmmedan world and that many
of their saints are advocating the inaugu-
ration Of holy war. This is 80 not only
in Morocco, but also in Egypt and in Ara
bia, and. II It occurs, 1t will make the lives
of Christians everywhere unsafe. At the
present time, of all the people in the world,
more than II per cent are Mohammedans,
and there are Just about one-third as many
Mohammedans all told as there are Chris
tians. Christians number little over 50o,-
100000 and the Mohammedans more than
AZ, 0o0. In such a war the Mohammedans
would tight to the death. and they would
rather welcome martyrdom. as to be killed
killing Christians would give them top
seats in the gallery Of heaven and a choice
pick OF the beautiful maidens who are sup
piled for every one OF the faithful upon his
entrance into paradise.

Two Mohammedan suitans.

There is a radical difference between the
Mohammedans here and those of other
parts OF the world. The 50.000OO0 Moham-
medans of India bow down to the sultan of
Turkey, and our Moros do the same. The
Arabians. the Egyptians and the Turks
all acknowledge allegiance to him, and this
is so OF a large part OF the other Moham-
medans in Africa. The Mohammedans of
Morocco think that their sultan is far SUI
perior TO any other, and they say that he
is the only one that has the blood of the
prophet in him. They will not allow the
Turkish sultan to have a representative
here. and they recognize him neither re-
ligiously nor politically They revere their
own monarch only because he comes Of
the family of Mohammed. and for that
reason he can give them blessing. II
this were not so he would be dethroned
tomorrow; and, as 1t is, they dislike him
because he is favoring the Europeans and
modern improvements. This feeling is even
stronger in the wild tribes of the noun
tains than among the people of the city
The Berbers as well as the Moors want
to get rid Of the Christians, and they
would be glad to have them ousted at once
and forever

Attends Grammar schools.

He received his grammar school educa-
ton in the Omaha schools. During the
summer vacation he would always earn
something. at least enough for new suit
of clothes for the opening of school, and
sometimes more than that One summer
vacation he drove cows to and from pasture
for neighbors. That money gave him an
independence that made his eyes sparkle
and his step lighter. Before he was lS he
was beginning his life work.
Superintendent Nelson has another side
to his life that Is pleasing. He has a son
2 years Of age. a son that is the apple of
his mammals and papa's eye. Any modesty
Mr.. Nelson may have about his own
achievements he makes up for when talk
ing about Master Nelson. Assistant Super
intendent Nelson is the FIRST in command
az the Nelson home. Whatever authority
Mr.. Nelson may have over the Western
Union Telegraph company's interests IN
Omaha and this district. he has to step
around when he reaches home and re-
ceives his marching orders from Master
Nelson. The Nelson home IL In the Field

Moorish people he can do so in the hig
market on the edge Of this city. Not far
from the American legation there is a
space covering ten or more acres which
on two or three days Of each week is filled
with people buying and selling. There are
hooded men in from the country. moving
about on bare legs There are dignihed
Moorish merchants, in turbans and gowns
There are peasant women with great hats
and yelled Mohammedan women, all mixed
together in one Of the queerest crowds to
be seen anywhere in the world. You must

bound up in bright colored handkerchiefs.

selling water from goatskin he.Gs on their
shoulders TO those with sweet cakes and

are bread peddlers and vegetable peddlers

Army Expenditures Large

The growing importance OF Omaha as a
military headquarters and discussing point
for army supplies is no better demon
strated than in the office OF the chief quar-
termaster of the Department Of the Mis-
souri, az Omaha. III the further view Of
the fact that practically all Of these sup
plies and payments for transportation are
purchased and made in Omaha adds adj
ditional interest 10 the matter Tho to'al
amount of money expended during 'Nn
year 1906 up to December %, was T.7...-
bSSOL
These expenditures were extended over
the several months Of the year as follows:
January. S159lsO4S: February. y12S OSi0l:
March, S166,s2s.Ol; April sl5S.49 .a6; May.

October, 3169 1886; November, Si9O, 5000.
December, slOs,995.H.
These expenditures do not include about
$4,000 expended by the constructing qunr-
termasters in the rebuilding Of Fort
Omaha. and the improvements made at
Fort Crook during the year 1906.
The figures above given include the pur-
chase OF every character Of quartermaster
supplies excepting horses, and cover the
expenses OF running the department. trans
portation. the purchase OF clothing and
camp and garrison eduipage.
During the current year there has been
expended also for commissary supplies
nearly $4,000 through the oflco OF the
purchasing commissary OF subsistence,
Captain T. 3. Hacker. : very large pro-
portion OF these supplies were bought OF
Omaha jobbeTs and embrace food pur-
chases not alone for the troops Of the de-
partment, but for meats and miscellaneous
supplies for the United States srmy iu ne

Strong Light Hurts Eyes

One occasionally meets people whose VI
sion Is affected but who speak with pride
u the fact that their eyes have been so
Ttrong that they could look at the sun for
several minutes at time. Such people
have no conception OF the danger there is
in such a practice and not only TO them,
but 10 all, the following Instances may be
OF beneht.
Prof Nader, while working In a rather
dark corner OF his laboratory last year,
broke low resistance circuit in which an
electic current at n voltage OF 600 was
flowing The arc formed was about a foot
from his eye and appeared like ball OF
fre more than six inches in diameter. Inn
mediRtely there was a feeling as II s0me-
thing had given way in his right eye,
though no pain was experienced. Shortly
afterward he noticed that a part OF the
retina was permanently affected, the injured
portion being In the form Of a square,
with the center OF vision In one corner.
The sharp outlines OF the neld could be
easily distinguished and upon closing the
eye fRn-shaped flashes OF a violet color
spread out from one corner at equal in
tervals OF several seconds. the recurrence
being entirely involuntary. After being FOR
some time In the dark the flashes OF light
ceased.
The oculist who attended 70 the profess
mentions a second case, where an eminent
astronomer who had been imprudently OBJ
serving a partial eclipse OF the sun in tbs
east. with his eyes unprotected IN any way
found late In the day that on looking over
hillside he saw apparently flock OF eigh
or ten redbiTds, whose movements wer'
erratic. Since the birds appeared whereve
he looked he carefully examined the ne,
OF vision and discovered that the sun ha,
formed crescent image on the center o
the retina OF the left eye. The color o
the image was FrCen, with narrow re,
border The iajrred area seemed TO E.
quite blind and parallel lines d.yergeS
around H. this effect being just the OPPOSITE
OF the previous case. The injury is stu
noticeable and annoying. especially In read

It is against the law of the Koran to
have ones picture taken, and find it dan
gerous to use the camera. These Moham-
medans scowl whenever they see one
pointed at them, and many Of them would
fight rather than be photographed. Just
yesterday for instance, my son Jack, a
husky young fellow of q, who is making
this trip with me, tried to enter a fondak,
or Mohammedan hotel and stable COM
bined. The place was near the market,
and he had his camera open at the time.
There was a crowd OF Mohammedans
within, largely made up of men from the
interior. They caught sight of the camera
and thought he intended to take their
photographs. They rose in a body and
jumped for him and our dragoman Hadi
Mohammed. Both fought them back with
their sticks, and after a time we made our
way off.

cognizance of the fact that Nelson was I'M

Colonel Dickey called Nelson into his office
one morning and said he wanted an office
boy. lie said he wanted an office boy
whose grandmother or grandfather would
not die every time there was base ball
game in town, and he wanted an office boy
that would tend to business. Nelson said
he was that boy and he proved It, His
