Action of the EpwOrth Assembly
Puts Him in n Rage and He De-
flies Them 70 Take the
Threatened Action.
"ARE A LOT OF FoUR-FLUsHERs'

Mayor Dahlman defies former Senator
Patrick and the Epworth assembly and
dares Governor shanenberger TO institute
custer proceedings against himself and the
Omaha Board of Fire and Police Commits
sioners, composed of w. ]. Hoye. c. J..
Karbach, w. ]. Hunter and w. F. wap-
pich.
Il am ready any time they are and If
they want to file charges my advice to
them is to get busy" said the mayor.
The trouble is they are all a bunch Of
four-flushers, who grabbed at the bait held
out by that fellow Patrick and adopted this
resolution without knowing the first thing
about it or the conditions In Omaha. I am
not saying anything about former Cover
nor Sheldon and do not know why he
voted for the resolution, but 1 have no
time for the rest of the bunch and am
ready for them any time they want to act.
Il am mayor of this city and 1 intend
to show these four-flushers that am
mayor. have been here in this chair now
nearly four years. have always upheld the
law and always intend TO. dare the
governor to begin custer proceedings and !
dare the whole bunch.
Il am chairman of the Board of Fire
and Police Commissioners and the board
has never refused to revoke the saloon
license of this man Dinuzzo. We have
taken the matter up with the city attorney
and are waiting an opinion from him.
I'VE may be moving slow, but l will
move slow or just as fast as please. and
no man down at Lincoln can make me go
slower or faster. 1 believe in being sure
you are right before going ahead"

tion by Bolivia would be Of great advantage
TO IT,
Chilrs probable attitude in the event OF
hostilities between Bolivia and Peru is also
being discussed with much animation. With
chilrs assistance Bolivia would have a
decided advantage and from the military
standpoint, It is believed, could more easily
effect the prior occupation OF the disputed
tract because OF the practical impos-
sibility OF Perus transporting men and
munitions Of war over the Andes.

What is "Whiskey?"

The definition of the word whisky"
was given.Sunday when President Taft
rendered the final decision on the sub
ject, in connection with the construc-
tion of the pure food law, with refer
epce to labelling.
The President held that whisky
made of neutral species is whisky
when reduced to potable strength.
The President covered other details
in his decision and gave directions for
the proper brand of various varieties of
liquor. holding among other things,
thai whisky made from mixture of
straight whisky and neutral
species may be called blend.
y According to the instructions under
this decision straight whiskies will
hereafter be branded as such, but the
brand may be accompanied by the
legend 'aged in wood, and whisky
made from rectified. distilled or neu-
tral species may be branded SO as to
make the principal ingredient. In addi-
ton, if they so desire, manufacturers
of straight whisky may also use the
word bourbon. - rye" as the facts
may warrant.
The definition of "blends" is not
made broad enough to include neutral
species, this being made from molasses
and reduced to potable strength. This

THEATRICAL.
4sTHE BLUE MOUSE. .

What il said to be the one en-
phatic hit of the metropolitan season
in theatricaIs is 1.-The Blue Mouse"
Clyde Fitch's adaptation from the
German. which. with the largest cast
ever seen in a farce, comes TO the
Paris Grand next Tuesday, January A.
The play was intended for an antidote
10 melancholy. which purposes it is
said 10 serve so well, that the Lyric
Theatre. where the Messrs. Shubert
are showing the play, is packed night
ly. Novelty is the keynote of every
Fitch comedy and into "'The Blue
Mouse" he has injected not only char
acters you seldom meet yer know are
true to .hfe. but many situations that
are far away from anything ever be-
fore attempted.
''The Blue Mouse is really charm
ing dancer who ''Salomes" at a New
York variety theatre. Yet there is no
attempt To make the audience step into
her life, as it were, or swallow dis
agreeable pills cf suggestiveness. Like
The Blue Mouse, although she nib
bles at Goals without being burnt, the
play is clean and at no time is the au-
dience asked to solve a problem or
even think seriously. 1t is the purpose
of the author to create laughter and he
is said to have succeeded IN a way that
is sure to make his latest play the
most phenomenal fare America has
ever seen.
The piece ran tor over a year in
Germany and is still holding the boards
there as well as in France. 1t has als(
been presented in Austria, Sweden anC
Denmark and it bids fair to continue
at the Lyric in New York the remain
der of the present season.

According 10 expert government reports

wise would require double the quantity OF
