OPEN DEALING IN PAINT.

Buying paint used to be like tho
proverbial buying Of a "pig in a
poke" Mixtures in which chalk.
ground rock, ETC., predcminated were
marked and sold as Pure White
Lead" the deception not being an
parent until the paint and the paint
ing were paid for. This deception is
still practiced, but we have learned to
expose it easily.
National Lead Company, the larg-
est makers OF genuine Pure White
Lead, realizing the injustice that was
being done to both property owners
and honest paint manufacturers. set
about to make paint buying safe.
They first adopted a trade mark. the
now famous "Dutch-Boy Painter" and
put this trademark, as a guaranty of
purity, on every package Of their
White Lead. They then set about
familiarizing the public with the
blow-pipe test by which the purity
and g%enuineness of White Lead may
be determined, and furnished a blow
pipe free to every one who would
write them for it. This action was in
itself a guaranty Of the purity of Ma
tlonal Lead Company's White Lead.
AS the result of this open dealing
the paint buyer to-day has only him
self to blame If he is %defrauded. For
test outfit and valuable booklet on
painting, address National Lead Com
pany, Woodbridge Bldg, New York.

LYDIA E. PINKHAM

Nature and a woman's work COM
bined have produced the grandest
remedy for Woman's ills that the
world has ever known.
In the good old-fashioned days Of
our grandmothers they. relied upon
the roots and herbs of the field to
cure disease and mitigate suffering.
The Indians on our Western
Plains to-day can produce roots and
herbs for every ailment, and cure
diseases that battle the most skilled
physicians who have spent years in
the study of drugs.
From the roots and herbs of the
field Lydia E. Pinkham more than
thirty years ago gave to the women
of the world a remedy for their Pc
culiar ills, more potent and efica-
cious than any combination ofdrugs.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is now recognized as the
standard remedy for woman's ills.
Mrs. Bertha Muff, of SIS NC. St..
Louisiana, Mo-, writes:
IeSCOTdCIOu 10 Qo61CO
can so much to mt that for the sake
of other suffering women 1 am willing
to make my troubles public.
"For twelve years I had been suffer-
ing with the worst forms of female ills.
During that time I had eleven different
physicians without help. No tongue
can tell what I suffered, and at times I
could hardly walk. About two years
ago l wrote Mrs: Pinkham for advice.
I followed it, and can truly say that
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound and Mrs. Pinkham's advice re-
stored health and strength. It is
worth mountains of gold to suffering
women"
What Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound did for Mrs. Muf,
it will do for other suffering women.

CONTRACTS LET FOR PAVING
Awarding of Work is End of Dispute
Between County Board and
Contractors.

The end of the fight over paving con-
tracts between the county board and the
paving contractors came Wednesday morn
ing. when the board adopted a resolution
letting contracts for the Briggs road, the
Forest Lawn cemetery road and the Center
road 70 Willard, the specifications being
changed so the cost of the paving will be
somewhat reduced.
The Briggs road contract went to the
Katz-Craig Contracting company at $50
per linesI foot. The original hid was $2.23
a foot. After the bids were received the
board decided to cut the width of the road
from sixteen to twelve feet and this caused
a reduction OF o per cent in the bid. A
further reduction was made in the cost OF
taivia with which the road will be coated,
TIE board specifying that a half gallon
should be used 10 each square yard.
The contract for the Center street road
was let to f. d. Van Cour at A.67 a
lineal foot on revised specifications similar
to those for the Briggs road. Van Courts
original bid was &.31. On this road some
cement paving will be laid probably al
intersections and this work will be done at
the price OF the original bid for that kind
of paving. Van court also secured the
contract for the Forest Lawn cemetery
road at SECS a foot, a reduction OF 10 cents
a foot owing 10 the change in the tarvia
specifications.
The board Will continue 10 advertise for
outside bidders for the rest OF the paving
TO be done this summer.

MYSTERIOUS BURGLAR sHoT
Criminal Long Sought by Police is
wounded, but Is stnl at
Large.

Detective Hank Elsfeider shot a burglar
early Wednesday morning. After the shoot
ing. however, the wounded man escaped b.
running through the alley and hiding for
a time in A. II. Murdock's barn.
The South Omaha police have been BAT
fled by the exploits of this man for two
years. He has been so solitary in his hab-
its and so wary Of pursuit that no police
officer has ever had a glimpse OF him
During the last six months nearly twenty
houses have been broken into on the north
side OF the city. Most Of the jobs we're
kept dark by the police, with the hope
that the man would become bold enough
to grow careless. During the last three
weeks the police have been especially Wig
liant.
Esfelder was on duty in that neighbour
hood and was Just starting for the station
down Twenty-fifth street when he met the
man face TO face. It was then 3 a. m.
and the hour naturally reused suspicion
Of the officer. The man was about 10 feet
away when first seen and he walked up 10
1.-THE front porch of a house as II he lived
there. The officer followed to make sure,
and the man did not care for a close in
vestigation. He jumped off the porch and
ran toward the alley. Elsfelder opened
fire instantly and fired five shots. Three
bullets were located in the buildings, bu
two were not discovered. The man rar
through the alley and hid in A. II. Muir
docks barn, where he left a dozen ring
and brooches and a gold watch belonging
to ]. ]. Pumping, who lives IN the neigh
borhood. In the barn and along the allie!
was plenty OF blood staining the course h,
took. A newspaper was found in the bari
which was smeared with blood where tn.
burglar had wiped It off. Elsfelder said h
aimed at the mans body, intending to xii

The Omaha police have been notified an,
a fairly good description was given. l
the wound is as serious as the blood woul

The fact Of his hiding in the barn wa

police station.

COMMISSION PLAN IN OMAHA
Reform of City government Has
Reached Stage of Public
Discussion.

John w. Robbins. c. F. Harrison and H.
B. Payne discussed the Des Moires COM
missioner plan OF city government before
the Real Estate exchange Wednesday.
Mr.. Harrison read q carefully prepared
letter from Lawrence Minot of Boston,
owner of four or five of the largest build
ings in the business district of Omaha and
a large owner of Boston property. Mr..
Minot is a student Of municipal govern
ments and has been the power behind sew
eral good things which have been done for
Boston. While in Omaha recently he
looked the city over carefully and wrote
the letter giving his ideas of city govern
ment ir response to a request Of Mr.. Har-
rison.
IF I were to be given the responsibility
of writing a charter for a city, l would
first make up my mind what sort Of a
man or what sort of men should hold the
Offices said Mr.. Minot. Then when |
had picked the highest type Of citizen
ship, l would go to these men and find
what II would take as an inducement to
get them to enter public office and manage
the affairs Of the city. When l had learned
this / would write the charter and make
provisions for getting such men into the
offices"
Mr.. Harrison agreed with Mr.. Minot and
believed the salaries or mayor and com,
missioners. If Omaha ever has the commits,
sioner plan, should be large enough and tn,
powers sufficient to induce the best men t
accept the offices.
Mr.. Payne wants a city run by one man
who will he as big a man as the genera
manager OF any $1,000 600 corporation an,
he said he would make that one man.
power absolute.
Mr.. Robbins described the Des Nome
commissioner plan in detail, objecting onl!
TO the cumbersome recall measure Of tn
plan, which requires that % per cent .
the voters at the last city election, mus
sign a petition requesting a special election
before the people are even given an op

Wednesday morning the 800 delegates and
their friends were taken on a trolley ride
to Florence and to places Of interest IN
Omaha and Wednesday afternoon another
executive session was held in Barlshts
hail, Nineteenth and Farnam streets.
These district meetings which are being
held in different parts of the country are
purely social and for the purpose OF dis
cussing brotherhood affairs and the general
condition OF the organization said J. j.
Hannahan of Peoria. Ill, grand master Of
the brotherhood. Meetings of similar ma
ture have been held all over the country.
The national organization will meet at Co

year probably will be held in the west
That was as strong as Mr.. Hannahan would
go for Omaha, but other officials present
said that Omaha has the best chance Of
any city to get the meetings next year.
This brotherhood meeting IN quite an ex-
tensive affair, as the sessions will last at
least three weeks and there will be 1000
delegates in attendance.
Purely Labor Body.
This is purely a labor organization with
the insurance feature, organized thirty
seven years ago, with a membership at the
present time of over 10000 men. Some Idea
of the way we are growing may be gained
from the statement as to the increase In
membership during the last fourteen
months. 1t seems scarcely credible,
but the fact remains that during the last
fourteen months, from January, 1907, 2l,4sl
men were admitted into membership.
THE organization has 1903, 2S9 in its treas
ury and in the protective FUND alone We
have 1924, O64.S7. which shows that the pro
tectlve fund is rather a peace fund and II
used more as a guarantee Of peace than t
fight.
THE laboring men Will not submit u
any reduction of wages. but on the othet
hand a condition will be forced which ma,
cause more or less friction to prevent
reduction. We want to stop this inter
ference with the railroads and II will b
