BABIES BURNED
Two Little Girls Dead and Third Suf-
fering Agony in Hospital.
MOTHER GOES SEEKING FUEL
Three Children I'm Bed and
House Locked, Fire Breaks Out
and Helpless Little Vic
Tins Perish.

Agnes, 1 year Of age, Annie, 8, daughters
of Joseph and Mary Zidarick, Second and
William streets, burned TO death while
their mother had gone to get fuel to
keep them warm, and Rose. 4 years Of
age, the eldest child, was terribly
burned, as a result of a fire chat broke
out in the home, where the children were
left asleep in their bed by the mother
early Tuesday morning. M baby
died within fifteen minutes after being
taken from the building and the next child
lived hours. She and Rose were taken to
st. Joseph's hospital and Rosie will re-
cover.
All the children were horribly burned
and their piteous walls and helpless strug-
giles to escape their doom were heart
rending.
Joseph Zidarick and his wife are Polish
people. The father works at the smelter
and left his humble home at an early hour.
At about 1880 Mrs. Zidarick put the three
little girls, her only children, to bed partly
dressed. and, locking both doors, started
out in search of wood to replenish the
kitchen woodbox. which was very low.
The family are in poor circumstances and
it is only by the hardest klnd of effort
the wolf has been kept from the door.
In the bedroom where the children slept
was a small heating stove with q wood
fire in 1t. Just how the fire started may
never be known, but shortly before 8
o'clock Jacob Yonosky, a neighbor, saw
smoke issuing from the place. Hastily
sounding an alarm he and Adam Gracer,
who lives across the street from the lid
aricks, ran to the house, only to find the
doors locked. Bursting open windows at
either end of the house the two entered
and rushed into the ~bedchamber where the
bed and wall were a mass Of flames.
ChiIdren Writhe HeIpIessiy.
The three little ones, powerless to aid
themselves, were lying on the bed, with
ing in the agony of their burns. Their pitt
full cries and grOans struck horror to the
hearts Of the men who entered the building
and, in danger of themselves being badly
burned. the two lost no time in removing
the children. They were carried by tender
and eager arms to the Gracer home and
the fire department soon had the BLAZING
building under control.
Fifteen minutes after being rescued
Agnes Zidarick died after excruciating suf-
tering. The police station was notified
and Or. Harris responded. Temporarily
dressing the burns OF the surviving chill
dren, they were hurried to ST. Joseph's
hospital.
1t was a pathetic scene when the mother
Of the babies returned from her wood
hunting expedition. Mrs. Zidarick's condl-
ton makes her case the more serious. The
woman was frantic with grief and it was
with difficulty she could be restrained.
Hundreds Of people were drawn to the
scene of the tragedy and expressions OF
sympathy were heard on all sides. Willing
neighbors have come to the aid Of the
stricken mother and every possible assist
ance will be given the bereaved parents.
Their home is not so badly damaged but
they can continue to occupy It, as a result
Of the quick response Of the fire depart
ment.

Heaven on Earth
Aim of Charity
Prof. Lucille Eaves of Nebraska Uni
versity Tells of Ideals of
Organized Workers.

An unusually able discourse on social
problems was that Of Prof. Lucille Eaves
of the department of sociology and politi-
cal economy of the University Of Nebraska
at the Young Mems Christian association
last evening when there was introduced by
Miss Ida V. Jontz, general secretary of the
Associated Charities Of Omaha, a training
class for social workers. Prof. Eaves came
to Omaha under the auspices of the Associ-
ated Charities bureau and in her address
last evening gave plenty of encouragement
and advice to those affiliated or contem-
plating affiliation with the movement.
In her opening remarks Prof Eaves gave
a summary of the associated charities
movement, showing the conditions that
existed in England which gave rise to it,
and then of its growth in this country. As
a result OF the movement, she said, there
has been brought about social develop
ment and the abolition of social evils.
Prof. Eaves then spoke of the need of
leadership and illustrated how in the past
it was the belief that work along this line
should be with a view to saving people
from hell; now it is possible to make a
heaven upon earth. The matter Of leader
ship, said the noted social worker, was
one of special attraction, in that through
it was afforded a peculiar opportunity for
obtaining education. The movement, said
Prof. Eaves, was a most practical under

Stopover privileges on all one-way tick

ways affiliated with the Western Passen-

that the rule Is ironclad and will remain
in effect forever and ever.
The rule does not apply to round-trip
tickets and in no way applies to tourist
rates or special tickets. Tourist tickets are
sold with stopover privileges included and
so specified on the transportation. Only
single trip tickets are affected upon which
local rates apply.

New Union Pacific Line.
Right-of-way for the Union Pacific from
Northport to Gering has been definitely

it was a question whether to use the north
bank or the south bank of the stream.
The spur will be forty-five miles in length.

wireless instruments, DR.. Millener has a
plan to electrify all the tracks In the
Union Pacific yards. The same idea, If
found successful, could be extended to all
the railroad systems Of the country.
In order to make practical use of the
wireless telephone and the telegraph,
adequate ground connection must be es-
tablished at receiving or dispatching sta
tions to pick out the correct electrical
waves from the atmosphere. Chicken wire
is often used to cover a field or a network
of wires is strung above the station. DR..
Millener proposes to use the network of
tracks about the Union Pacific yards and
tracks as his ground circuit. He will give
the system a trial within the near future.
No Danger in Plan.
There's will be no danger in magnetic
ing the rails states DR.. Millener. we
may pass a heavy current through the
steel, yet a person coming in contact with
the rails would never know that a high
voltage was passing through the steel. That
person would also have a ground connec
ton, so there could be no conduction of
electricity from the rail to the person. 1t
Is a perfectly safe proposition"
DR.. Millener scouts stories from the east
to the effect that the wireless telephone
has been successfully employed on the
Erie railroad. He says they could not have
obtained the proper ground connection I'M
less the rails were used and this is an
entirely new idea.
DR.. Millener will first try his wireless
telephone from a locomotive cab and later
install his instrument on a passenger
coach. His instrument have been com
pleted. If successful he claims that it will
be possible to communicate long distances
from a swiftly moving passenger train.
Work is now being done on his electric
transformer. This will weigh, when com
pleted, 5000 pounds. 800 sheets of iron,
24x24 inches, win be used in the construc-
ton Of the transformer.
