Four Men Kill
Horse While in
a Heat Trance
Italians Imagine They Are Hunting
Chamois in the Foothills Of
the Alps.

Tony Tobue, Joe Montofiel. Marine Rip
aula and joe Tierco are four Italian labor
ers who used to work on the Lane CUTOFF
just across the fence from Herman Muen-
ster's pasture lot.
Shoveling dirt is no pleasant occupation
and not very long ago, after having moved
tons during the day. these four expatriates
all went crazy from the heat. From their
bunk house they dug up an old carbine
that had seen service with Cavour and
went cunning.
Once more they were hunting channels in
the foothills OF the Alps. They marched
through the fence and into Muenster's pas
ture. Across the horizon ambled Myrtle,
Muenster's old gray mare. Marine, who
was in the lead, sisnaled the enemy and
the carbine opened fire. Myrtle sank upon
the ground a corpse.
Then the four came out OF their heat
trance and left immediately for Omaha.
County Attorney English found 1t out and
filed a complaint for destruction of prop
erty. They might be sentenced to several
years in the penitentiary.

Reading Novels
is Dissipation,
Says DR.. Bell
As Disastrous to Soul and Home as
the Dissipation of
Drink.

"rhe gobbling down whole Of the popular
novels OF the day is as Injurious as drink
ing, and It is a dissipation Just as dissas-
trous to the home and to the individual
soul as is the dissipation Of drink"
So declared DR.. Sanford Bell of Denver
in an address before the teachers In at
tendance at the Douglas county institute.
People nowadays seek and demand ex-
citing novels. stories that bring new thrills,
just as they demand new amusements at
the summer resorts and new drinks at
the bar. The danger is that genuine mo-
tives and ideals are not given. Every
motive that has a tendency to beget good
in you or your neighbor is good, but mo-
tives that injure are a The poet who
perverts your soul is already damned and
is damning you"

Prof. Ellis U. Graft. principal Of the
high school, likes pie and is of the opinion
it's consumption by the high school boys

from their studies. In addition TO this
liking for pie, the p~edagogue is partial to
ice cream and advises people to eat IT.
AS he believes in pie and Ice cream he
has given permission to Miss Cornelia

coffee or weak tea and eat about what
they please.

STREET PREACHER ATTRACTS
ATTENTION BY LOW TONES
Commands Notice and Holds II by
an Earnest, Emphatic
speech.

A street corner preacher has discovered
a new method and an effective one.
Evening pedestrians passing the corner
OF Sixteenth and Douglas have observed
~wonderingly a little group of men standing
beside the sidewalk and many men have
rushed up under the impression that a
fight was on or Just about to begin.
When they got near they could hear a
quiet voice saying: Now. the wonderful
thing about the prophecies Of the Old Tes-
lament Is that they are absolutely"
Sometimes the men looking for the fight
turned away in disgust and sometimes
they stayed TO see what new manner of
street corner orator this might be.
A block down the street salvation Army
lists and Volunteers were expostulating ana
expounding in no dulcet tones and a few
independent wayfaring gospel shouters
were also holding forth in sonorous tones.
The new man spoke In a low voice, but
with a distinct enunciation that enabled all
to hear I'm. He had q trick OF emphaslz-
ing every word that made all he said
sound terribly important, as perchance, IL
was. Anyhow, he Is a veritable pioneer
among open-air evangelists.

This is according to the official statement
OF City Comptroller Lobeck az TO the con-
dition Of the department funds mp to Au-
gust l. with a few incidental expenses paid
during the first two weeks OF the current
month.
Dividing the street cleaning fund into
twelve equal parts for the twelve months
OF the year, only $500 could be spent a
month. Therefore during the first seven
months OF the year S2s, e42 should have been
spent. leaving $4,000 for tho last five
months OF the year. Instead Of this the de-
partment has spent &S6. 900 already this year
and a balance Of only SlO.56l remains for
the rest Of the year, or only S2111 a month.
1t has generally been the custom to
spend more during the month OF Septem-
Der than during any other one month on
account Of the Ak-Sar-Ben carnival being
held that month and the advtsability OF
having the city clean hen there are
thousands OF visitors within her gates.
Business men have deemed It especially
advisable to rave the city clean the com
ing month because the Eagles will be here
then as well as the Ak-Sar-Ben. But with
only 10000 to run the department through
August, october, November and Decem-
Der, with the SHOWS Of the latter two
months, the street commissioner depart
ment acknowledges the fact that nothing
extra can be done in September. II any
thing. the street cleaning force will have
to be cut down.
Other departments have exceeded their
Appropriations so far during the year, the
excess being based on the average pei
month. On this average the fire depart
ment is 5000 short and the police depart
ment is 1900 short. A balance Of 500, sE
remains in the fire department out Of an
original fund of Slso,S34, while out Of an

partment a balance Of $54, 4S2 remains.

No Milk Famine
and No Cause
to Raise Price
So Assert City Health Commissioner
and Veterinarian Young, Who
Believe in Combine.

There IL no milk famine in Omaha
Further. there is no excuse for the price
OF milk being raised"
These are the statements OF DR.. r. W.
Connell. city commissioner OF health, and
DIT. @. r. Young. city veterinarian.
There lie plenty of milk. as much as
there always is at this time OF the year,
and the only famine 1 know OF is what
1 read about in some Of the papers," said
Dr.. Connell. There is no legitimate rea-
son for boosting the price,
Both these men tax the view that prices
are raised arbitrarily by the creamery and
dairy men, who are in a combine to squeeze
the people.
DR.. Young said that always at this time
Of the year there is something OF q short.
age of milk. but not enough to call IT a
famine or to cause the dairymen to raise
the price Of their product.
1T is too early to put the cows in the
barn and give them dry feed, and Il Il
getting too late to get much green food for
them in the pastures" said the veterinar-
San, 'but I have not seen any famine, and,
as far as 1 know, every man, woman and
child in Omaha is getting all the milk he
or she wants"
Both OF the officials scott at the idea
that the new ordinance requiring all dairtes
to pasteurizs their milk or to nave their
cows subjected to the tuberculin test has
had anything to de with the boost in the
price OF milk.
According to DR.. Conneil, none Of the
dairies has bought p~asteurizing machin-
cry, and DR.. Young says he hopes that
lone OF them WILL The veterinarian said
he had advised several dairymen who in
tended to buy pasteurizing machinery not
to do so, while DR.. Connell is urging that
p~asteurization be adopted.

the old boys in blue will vie witt each
other in relating the struggles. privations,
hardships and adventures Of those event

dance pavilion, and other forms Of amuse-
ment for the young and old rave been ar
ranged.
