Digesting food alone does not

cures constipation--is temporary
relief only. But digesting the food,
healing and cleansing the stomach

way a permanent cure can be
made. Powell's Stomach Remedy
does this. 1t is the only product
that will do this; it relieves the
first dose, and is very pleasant to
take. Powell's Stomach Remedy
can be depended upon; it does
make permanent cures. Do not &C.

GOING AFTER CITY'S DRAW
City Comptroller Wants ALI Coming
on Occupation Tax.
WILL CONSULT OTHER CITIES
Segregation of Income Outside Limits
of Omaha Likely to he Some Of
Contention by the Corr
pO~ratiOnH.

The CITY comptroller and his staff are
anticipating no easy task in ascertaining
Just what the public service corporations
are to pay into the city treasury under the
occupation tax ordinance. The tax began
TO run September /, and the first payment
will be due December 1.
I'VE propose to avail ourselves Of the
experience of other cities,' said Deputy
Comptroller COsgrove. We win get from
the cities having similar Jaws any blanks
or forms they may have On use, and also
learn their methods OF computing n seq
regating. In Omaha we are entitled to 3
per cent on all business, but we cannot get
anything from business originating in Ben
son or Dundee or South Omaha on the
lines Of the street car company. Then the
gas company has a suboffice in South
Omaha, but all gas goes from the receiv-
ers located in this city. So with the cleo
trio light and the telephone and water com
panies-there are various details to be
given consideration.
80 far as possible, we want to be pre-
pared to go about the work i'm the right
way when We start It. Perhaps we should
nave started action earlier, but the council
men were up against a new thing, just as
we were in this office. I believe we can get
in shape to handle the matter right with
out very much trouble.
Former Councilman Zimman, who faith
cred the occupation tax ordinance, with
Councilman Bridges, believes the city
should employ a high priced expert ac-
countant by the year, at a salary of some
thing like 5000, to devote his attention
exclusively to the collection of occupation
and royalties that the city may be en-
titled to from various companies.

Loud c~lapplng OF hands by Mrs. A. II.
Hunt over a statement made by Mrs.
Nellie Paul startled Judge Troup's court
room yesterday and drew down on Mrs.
Hunt the wrath OF the court,
Mrs. Paul was undergoing cross-examina-
ton in her divorce suit, and A. w Jefferis
had just asked her II she did not know
that Mr.. Paul had a good deal Of property
when She married him.
Il married him for love alone retorted
Mrs. Paul 'If he had not a dollar in the
world It would have made no difference.
ia have married him Just the same"
Then the sound Of applause broke the
stiffness Of the court room. 1t was en-
thusiastic applause, too, and was main
tained for several seconds until Judge
Troup pounded with Indignation upon the
bench and cried:
Mrs. Hunt, let no occurrence OF this
sort ever happen in this court again, 1t is
unpardonable.'
Thought She Was at w. C.. IT,. 4.
General Gown rose and suggested that
Mrs. Hunt forgot and thought she was at
the Women's Christian Temperance union
o at a vaudeville show" replied Judge
Troup with much sarcasm.
Mrs. Hunt has been an attendant at the
trial since Tuesday morning and has beer
in frequent conference with Mrs, Paul,
Her interest in the proceedings is such
that she has taken private notes upon
part Of the testimony. Both she and her
husband. who Is superintendent of the
Omaha Water company, will be witnesses
for Mrs. Pau.
Mrs. Paul finished her direct testimony
about 1890. Her attorney squared himself
for a last question and asked with all the
impressiveness he could muster:
Mrs. Paul, nave you ever in your whole
married life been unfaithfui or cruel tc
your h~usband7"
mo, sir" said Mrs. Paul. mo sirl"
The action was given as impressively as
the question.
Mr.. Pauls counsel began with questions
as to Mrs. Paul's age at the time Of her
first marriage and her age now which the
witness said was SS years. Then he passed
to the subject Of that quarrel with Paul
In which his wife says he struck her and
tore her night robe off,
What did you do when he tore your
gown?"
IT just looked into his face and smiled -
"Oh. you just smiled?' asked Jefferis
with irony. what did you do next?"
Il went into the parlor and sat in the
moonlight for a long. lon time"
The next questions were full OF reference

I'VE NEED The MONEY"

News reports from Washington
on the new tariff schedule indicate
that the committee will recommend adj
ditional revenue Of $350,o0o,o0 annually
and that fifty millions Of this sum is
expected to be derived from the adj
vance on coffee, on which a duty Of I
cents will be recommended.
further along in the newspaper re-
port appears this significant para
graph:
''whisky and beer will remain as
they are at present, IL the subcomrnit-
tee recommendations are enacted into
law. It was felt that whisky was al
ready carrying all the tax 1t could
stand, while in the case Of beer the
prohibition movement turnout the
country. it was explained, had cut
down the consumption Of beer, and it
was felt that it would be a hardship
to impose any further tax"
The statement that $50,000,000 rev.
enue will be derived from an increase
Of 1 cents duty on coffee doubtless is
not exaggerated. Coffee is used in
practically every household in the
United States. It is q commodity as
staple as flour. 1t is no longer reck-
oned among the Injuries. Whisky and
beer win scarcely be classed among
