Electric Show
Unfolds Secrets
to Many People
Thousands Visit Exposition in Audi
forum and Listen to Why's of
Electricity.

They explained things at the electric
show last evening-where the ''glim" goes
from the lamps and where little chickens
Matched in an incubator come from.
And that is not all. An indirect message
was received relating to the Fort Omaha
balloon. The wireless station in the Audi
torium recorded the cliCk-click-click, news
from the wireless station at Fort Omaha
that no word had yet been obtained from
the balloon. This indicated to the expert
in -harge Of the station that it was work
ing satisfactory. This wonderful affair is
the center of constant interest and admira-
ton, and one Of the great features of the
show.
II was a CAV crowd which saw the lights
and took the lessons the big show offered
last evening. 1t promised well for the re-
naming days of the show, which are five
Interest has not abated in the exposition;
I'm fact, it has just been awakened by the
ringing Of the bells and glare Of electric
lights. So perfectly is the show working
that a turn Of the switch to put it in
motion would keep everything going as
long as the current is furnished. Like all
electrical appliances, the show gives people
a chance to r~est-to sit down by the way
side and take It easy without growing
older.

THE QUESTION OF THE DAY
1t Has Never Yet Had "A RcgrctfuI
rmR Answer.

"Is your life insured?' If you should
ask all of your acquaintance this ques-
ton you would unquestiondbly be surprised
10 learn how many of them are carrying
insurane. You would, to he sure, receive
some negative responses, for while there is
none who will deny that life insurance is a
good thing TO have. everybody that ought
to be insured is not so yet. However,
the number Of affirmative replies would
undoubtedly be a revelation Of the pOpu-
larity of life insurance as a permanent, APP
preciated necessity. This is in strong con-
trast TO what would have been the case
even a third of a century ago, when in
surants were comparative %rarities, and few
OF them had any higher incentive in the
idea than might be found in connection
with some speculative investment. The diff
ference between then and now is that the
value of regular, or standard life insurance
Is nc more questioned than the intrinsic
worth Of virgin gold. nor the duty OF being
insured any more debatable than the value
of bodily health or earthly happiness.
Hence II is that so many are now within
the protective fold, and that the multitude
is growing greater. year by year. The in
tegrity Of life insurance and the obligation
TO be insured is so well established that at
no distant time IL can be assumed that the
non-insurant will be such an exception to
the general rule Of sagaciOus men as to
injure his own social and business stand
ing.

Good as Another
Police Station
So Says Captain Mostyn, Talking of
the New Automobile Now
in Service.

Lawrence Morse, an automobile expert
in the employ of the white Steamer com
pany, is in Omaha for the purpose of
giving instruction to members Of the police
force in running the new machine just
received by the department. 1t is prob
able the at least six officers Will be desig-
mated to receive such instruction in order
that there may always be a competent
chauffeur at hand.
The new machine was given its first
night tryout last evening when a party
consisting of Captain Mostyn, Detectives
Heitfeldt and Donahue and Emergency
officer R~eigelman, with Mr.. Morse at the
wheel, made a trip over the west part OF
the city. going as far as the Emergency
hospital.
Captain Mostyn gives it as his opinion
that the addition Of this machine to the
equipment of the department is equal to
the building of an additional police sta
ton, as with it the entire city may be
covered N a minimum time and hurry
calls can be made at a rate which will
practically double the efficiency of the
force.

Anti-Saloon
League Starts
It's Contest
Lysle Abbott Says Illegal Votes Were
Cast at the Late City
Election,

Maintaining that they are rightfullv
elected and that tho republicans declared

counting Illegal votes and rejecting legal
votes, the candidates Of the ~Anti-Saloon
league for the Board Of Fire and Police
commissioners will file their bonds and
will institute contests in the court to Sc
cure for themselves seats on the board.
This announcement was made Tuesday
by Lysle /. Abbott. attorney for and one
OF the candidates OF the league.
There are eight grounds on which a
contest OF election can he based, said Mr..
Abbott. "The paragraph on which we will
base our contest is found Ia section 3,274
Of the compiled statutes Of Nebraska and
reads: When illegal votes have been re-
ceived or legal votes have been rejected .

candidates in brackets at the head Of the
list Of candidates for the board on tho

legal votes were received iuasmuch as these
voters did not have to scan the entire
ballot to find the candidates in question
as did those who voted for the league
candidates. The names Of the league can
didates we're scattered and the voting was
not fair"
The Anti-Saloon league candidates will
file their bonds with the city clerk before
May "a, the date when the new officers
must qualify, and the contests will be in
stituted within twenty days from the time
the official canvass was completed.
This procedure will be taken for the rea-

Professional Men
Give to Corn Show
Doctors, Lawyers and Others Donate
Literally to Support the Ma
tional Exposition.

Professional men are standing up for
Omaha and standing up for Nebraska by
donating literally to the National Corn ex-
position Of 1909.
During the week several hundred dollars
rave been sent to Secretary T. f. Sturgess
by the lawyers, doctors. dentists and other
professional men. Under the present
financial plan it is a straight donation in
most cases and not a stock subscription.
AS soon as the professional men learned
what was wanted they got out their check
books and went to work. The money has
been coming in in various amounts ranging
for so to 500 and a large fund has been
created which will help out materially in
the promotion work.
Work has begun on the catalogue for
next year and the report of the 1905 ex-
position will soon be out.

HUNDRED DOLLAR Birdie
Delicate work of Art Made by Con-
Wet and Sent 10 Farmer
Burns.

Farmer Burns has received a horsehair
bride from Deer Lodge, Mont, that is
valued at 500. Il was made and sent to
him by a convict in the ~penitentiary who
signs himself "Kelley." The bride is a work
of art and three harness men in Omaha
say it would bring at least 500. The deli
cate technique of its manufacture is start
ling. Every particle of it is made of horse
hair. buttons and all. and there is not a
buckle on II. Burns says he knows a
great many men named Kelley. but doesn't
know which one this is, and didn't know
any man of that grand old name who was
in the penitentiary.
ITS too bad for a man who can do such
fine work as that to have TO be put in
the penitentiary," said the Farmer. That's
the strongest bride | ever saw. II the
man who made it had put it on his passion
and held a tight rein when the temptation
came-whatever it was that made him do
bad he wouldn't be in the prison today"

Five are dead at Depew.
The tornado swept over wide

olated points could not be confirmed.
Following the wind came a deluge
Of rain. The floods then added ter
rors to the situation. The wreckage
at Key West was soon swept away
by the rising waters. Practically
nothing was left Of the town of 200

On June the moon will emerge
from the total phase at 8 O'Clock, East

shadow at 1914 p. m. 1t continues

DIR. Briggs Accused of Stealing
Collection BOx-Says Nor.

New York, May 29.-For the sec
ond time within a few weeks George
w. Briggs, once Methodist preacher
in Owensboro, was arrested this after
noon. His first arrest was on the
suspicion of having stolen razor
strops and trinkets from drug store
and attempting to pawn them. He
then said he did not know how he
came by them and was freed in court.
Now he is accused of petty larceny
and has confessed this guilt. Nor
phine, he says. caused his downfall.
Briggs was in julius Klein's drug
store about p. m. The druggist saw
him place the tin collection box of
the Sunshine society under his coat
and walk out. Klein followed and Po-
licemsn Ayers arrested him.
Briggs had thirty pawn tickets run
ming from twenty-eight cents to 81.
One ticket was for crutch. This
collection box contained forty cents.
In the police station briggs told
this story:
Some years ago | suffered a nerv-
Gus breakdown, and went to sani-
tarium in Memphis. The physicians

slave to morphine. l have been pill

Briggs is such mental and physi-
cal wreck that he could scarcely
speak. His son told the police that
the family had arranged 10 send
Briggs to a sanitarium.
