RAIN IN TUBERCULOSIS WARD
Water Floods the Patients at the
County Hospital, Forcing
Them to Flee.

Patients at the tuberculosis ward at the
county hospital were flooded Monday even
ing during the driving rain and they had
to be moved beds and all from the sleeping
pavilion to the sitting room of the new
building.
The high wind tore loose the fastenlngs
that hold the canvas roof down and several
times during the storm an attendant had to
reanchor the roof. When the driving rain
came the water beat in around the open
sides and threatened to drench the beds.
The eight men and one woman in the ward
were moved into the sitting room, which
has boarded walls and roof. and they spent
the night there.
As a result of the experience Superin-
tendent Ferrer is of the opinion a shingle
roof will have to be placed on the sleeping
pavilion and some provision made for
closing up the sides during storms.

PiOneer In Boosting King of Cereals
Promises to Attend National

Corn" Murphy, the man who taught the
German and French people how to eat corn
mullins; the Dutch to love mush, saved
hundreds OF lives in furnishing Russia by
introducing Indian corn, and increased the
exports of the United States from 24.OOO, 900
bushels In 1855 to 100000 a few years

willingness to attend the exposition in
Omaha, do whatever he can to make IL q

fifteen days in Jail on the charge of failing

Some time ago the family was found living
In an old building that was at one time

B.. Carver ard the other authorities.
The judge made a lightning calculation
when told of the case by the friends of

that the sum left by the man for his
family's support was equal to about 3
cents a day for each member of the family,
he decided to let Klonski think it over in

ADVERTISE CHEAP LIVING

GOOD NEWS FOR CONVENTIONS
Many Meetings Are Turned Away
ecaus of AvarIce of Hotel
Men, but Omaha IL Not
Guilty.

Come to Omaha where hotel bills will
be reasonable and many first-class restau-
rants sell a feast for a song"
The convention committee Of the Com
mercial club is to advertise Omaha be-
cause the price of meals has been slowly
descending until it is cheaper to eat at
the restaurants than to pay board and
a cook at home,
When cities insist that conventions meet
lin their midst" the great question is:
"Will the hotel and restaurant keepers rob
us?"
houses prepare to reap a harvest when a
crowd is coming to town. They remove
the club breakfasts" from the menu cards
and almost everything which looks familiar
to visitors is quickly removed until the
convention has come and gone.
Omaha restaurant and hotel men have
never carried ~sandbags for visitors, but
complaint has been received when con-
v~entions contemplated coming to Omaha
that living is too high in the city and some
delegates cannot get a square meal for 25
or IS cents.
But the opening OF a few new restaurants
has caused the old ones to take notice and
they have put the prices down to a point
below that in college towns" where liv-
ing is said to be the cheapest.
AS a result the Commercial club will lose
no time In making the fact known that at
last the most saving delegate will be glad
10 come to Omaha where a full meal at a
high-class restaurant can be secured for
less money than STEAK an can be bought
for at the restaurants in small towns.
Take old plantation vegetable soup. Nc
one ever sold the dish for less than %
cents, and It is worth all of Is cents, be-
cause 1t contains a lot OF beef stock and
almost a peck of assorted vegetables. 1t
now sells at first-class restaurants for 10
cents. coney Island clam chowder has
gone from 20 and rs cents to 10 cents, while
a dish known as hot chicken sandwich, >
which consists of a piece OF chicken,
dumping, bread and butter. mashed pota-
Toes and rolls thrown In. costs 10 cents.
And it is just as filling as a chicken pot
pie church supper.
Coffee, rolls, breakfast food, butter" Is
cents; that don't look much like a Chicago
price or the usual rate charged on dining
cars, but the portions and the quality is
the same as that served in the restaurants
OF other cities.
I'VE are not going to overlook this OPP
portunity." said Commissioned j. NJ. Guild
of the Commercial club, land visitors need
not fear they will be fleeced by our hotel
keepers and restaurants during the Ma
tional Corn exposition and the conventions
scheduled TO meet IN Omaha.
During the corn show one restaurant
keeper is to serve a meal entirely of corn
dishes. 1t will cost about IS cents. and
though the drinks OF corn will be served
near. they will not be included IN the
corn meal" Here is the corn meal menu.

Bryan Defined.

OMAHA. oct. 1s.-To the Editor Of Thu
Bee: Dear Sir-As one who listened to MIR
Bryan Saturday evening last l was forced
to recall the meaning OF one word as given
to the world by Dr. William Dwight Whit
ney, who in his life was the greatest OF
philologists. He defines the word as fol-
lows: AN unprincipled popular orator or
leader. who endeavors to curry favor witt
some portion Of the people by pandering to
their preiudices or wishes, or by playing
on their ignorance or passions; one who
seeks to obtain political power by pander-
Ing to the ignorance or prejudices Of the
populsce."
South in commenting on rhe same word
says: "A plausible, insignificant word In
the mouth of an expert oemagogue is a
dangerous and deceltful weapon without
mentioning a name all men recognize the
person described. N. X. VAN HUSEN.

what Happened 60 Jones.

OMAHA, oct. ITO the Editor of The
Bee: Will you please lend me a few lines
in your most estimable paper that I may
as much as Is in my power right an injus-
tice to a fellow taxpayer? Returning home
Saturday night on a late car l saw our
good friend Jones waving a small flag and
talking very loudly to a meek looking chap
with him. My natural deduction was that
he wal about three sheets in" / mem
toned It to my wife when I got home, and
she, OF course, passed It on to our neigh
bors, and they to theirs, and so on.
Therefore, l am the one cause OF its being
circulated about town that Jones was
"soused' Saturday night. 1 now wish to
retract.
I find he had only been down to hear
Bryan and was carrying a Bryan flag.
The loud talk was only part of Bryan's
address, which he was repeating from
memory for the benefit of his friend, who
had not heard it. This friend, who is a
prohibitionist, tells me there was not the
slightest trace of liquor in his breath.
In view OF the above I ask your in
diligence in helping me set Jones back on
the pedestal Of his good reputation.

The Curious Cassowary.

Every explorer who visits the Aus
tralasian islands discovers q new kind
Of cassowary. None Of these birds pos
sesses any wings to speak Of, and their
bodies are clothed with dense masses
of curious, hairiike feathers. Accord
ing to a traveller, these feathers are put
to very remarkable use. When q
cassowary feels hungry, SO the legend
runs, it wades out into a stream until
only its head and neck are above wa
ter and spread out its long plumes on
either side. Numbers of unsophisticat-
ed little fishes immediately mistake
these for a new kind of water weed
and nestle confdingly up to the mo-
tionless cassowary for shelter; then that
artful bird suddenly presses his feath-
ers close against his body, walks ashore
and shakes out his prisoners on the
bank. so that he not only enjoys a de-
lightful bath, but obtains an excellent
meal into the bargain.
