THE RAILROAD WORKERS. VIEW

The railroad men of Nebraska, the
men who operate the trains and do
the toll, have issued pamphlet in
protest against proposed legislation
in that state for rate reductions. In
their pamphlet they set forth some
very salient points and advance some
new idea which are worthy the con-
sideration of every citizen Good
sound sense dominates their state
ment of conditions and so highly
is the presentation of the
views of these representative labor
ing men that the News finds pleas
ure in giving below the principal
points of their argument, with rec
ommendation that every railroad
man, every laboring man and every
citizen give the little time necessary
to carefully read and digest what
they have to say, as follows:

AFFAIRS At SOUTH OMAHA
Youthful Burglar is Captured While
in the Cressey Shoe Store.
WORKS ON THE SAFE ALL NIGHT
Tools Are Crude for Such IA Job and
He Had Made Little Progress
Toward Getting at the
Cash Box.

F. A. Cressey and Chief John Briggs
succeeded in capturing a burglar sunday
morning in the Cressey shoe store at
24O7 n street. The burglar, a young man
not quite p years old, gave his name as
Harry Summers Of st. Joseph, but who is
George NJ. Gillian Of Peoria, Ill. He had a
partner in St. Joseph, he confessed a
young man named ]. e.. Faltys, who
worked a year or more for Mr.. Cressey
and lived while in the city at 1916 NJ street.
About six months he left the service, and
went to st. Joseph. He gave Harry Sum
mers the combination of the safe and told
him OF the LAY out" as Summer eX-
pressed 1t. There was $500 in the safe and
only for the fact that Mr.. Cressey
changed the combination within the last
week he would probably have been a
heavy loser.
The young man came up from st. Joseph
last Thursday and located in Council
Bluffs. 1t is said he has a sweetheart
there whom he brought with him. He
came to South Omaha Saturday evening
and entered the store about s o'clock. He
asked the way TO the closet and was
directed TO the basement. He remained In
conceaIment in the basement until the
store was closed for the night. Then he at
tempted to work the combination and fail
ing in this he attempted to cut into the
safe with a hammer and chisel. He worked
all night on the safe which was partly hid
den from the front windows. The watch
man turned on the lights twice during the
night but failed to discover him. Evidently
h had been told that no one ever visited
the store on Sunday. for he kept at his
work until broad daylight. At 9 a, m. Mr..
Cressey entered the store and as he did so
saw someone dart foT the stairway to the
basement. When he reached the safe he
saw the tools and the attempt at break
ing In. He Immediately went out, locking
the door and telephoned the police from the

The trustees of the First Congregational

erect. At the service yesterday morning

The cost of the proposed new, church
edifice will be in the neighborhood Of

about 5000, so reducing the amount neces-

The trustees, who have been empowered
to secure options on a site, nave under
consideration the Phelps property at the

A Lazy Liver

Nay DO only a tired liver, or q starved
liver. 1t would be q stupid as well as
savage thing TO beat a weary or starved
man because he Jagged in his work. So
in treating the tagging, torpid liver It is
a great mistake TO lash 1t with strong
drastic drugs. A torpid liver is but an
indication Of an ill-nourished, enfcebled
body whose organs are weary with over
work. Start with tho stomach and allied
organs OF digestion and nutrition. Put
them in working order and see how
quickly your liver will become active.
