THREE BOATS IN
SERIOUS COLLISION
One Sinks; Only One Life Is
Lost; Accidents in Har-
Dor of Seattle

Seattle, Wash. Dec. 15.-One life was
lost and tne Sound steamer Kitsap and
the launch Columbia were sunk as g
result of two collisions in the Seattle
harbor late yesterday. involving the Co.
lumbia, the Kitsap and the steel steam
ship Indianapolis The man who lost
his life was A P. Yemen, nephew OF
Charles V. Piper. the distinguished bot
anist of the department of agriculture
al Washington. None OF the so passen-
gers on the Kitsap was injured
The accidents are attributed TO the
heavy fog which has hung over the en-
tire sound country for two days The
first accident occurred just as the Kit
sap left her berth. The fog was so
thick that objects could not be distin-
guished boatlength away.
Before the Kitsap could be stopped,
the Columbia, which suddenly appeared.
was run down Yemen was lost. The
only other person on the Columbia was
Capt Eustis, her owner. He was picked
up by the Kitsap. After the Kitsap
landed Eustis. she again put out into
the stream and started across the bay
She was barely 500 yards from the
wharf when the steel steamship Indi-
annapolis from Tacoma bore down upon
her port bow. The Indianapolis poked
her sharp Prov into the side of the Kit
sap's wooden hull a little forward of
amidships- The hundreds of passen-
gers on the Indianapolis were thrown
into panic, but were soon quoted.
The boats were together several min
utes. and the paSSenGe and crew of
the Kitsap were transferred directly
from her deck to the Indianapolis.
Twenty minutes after the collision the
Kitsap pulled away from the Indianap-
oils. gave a lurch and went down in $50
feet of water.
While the Indianapolis was creeping
to ner dock with the Kitsap's passen-
gers. the West Seattle ferry doomed out
of the fog just ahead, and only by a
hairs breadth did she avoid a collision

FoT tile future of the electric light busi-
ness in Omaha there is just one element
that will develop rapidly and change to a
certain extent the whole system. For
many years after the invention OF tho
ordinary electric incandescent light the
inventors were literally too busy with the
commercial details OF their business to
have any time for improving mechanically
their invention. The ordinary bulb Is q
poor device, when possibilities are con-
sidered as 1t uses only about per cent
Of the power that goes through 1t In maxi
ing light Ninety-eight per cent goes into
heat and other waste
Only recently improvements have been
tried and already lamp is on the market
that uses 4 per cent Of the electric energy.
The Tungsten light gives more than twice
as much light and uses much less power.
The dealers expect immediate advances
upon this new lamp and In very short
time electricity will be very much cheaper
and give very much better satisfaction In

SERUM FOR BLOOD POISONING
Reported Discovery of Cure sought
by Medical Men for Five
Hundred Xenrs. ,

DR.. Julius /. Meltzer of the staff of the
Rockefeller Institute, New York City, an
announces that positive cure has been
discovered by Dr. Paul Ehrlich, head of the
Institute for Experimental Therapeutics Of
Frankfort. Germany. for one of the most
virulent forms OF blood poisoning that is
known to continue into the second and
third generations, and for which a cure has
been sought for more Thanh 500 years. The
serum has been used successfully in the
Rockefeller Institute, DR.. Meltzer said to-
night:
The nearest cure that we could find was
of a mercurial nature, and positive cures
have never been known, but here comes a
dis covery where positive cures have been
effected in one injection of the serum ard
cure begun inside OF three hours and
completed in fourteen days. And, most
wonderful of all, not single case has
failed TO respond to the treatment, and not
once have i'll effects been the result of the
treatment
The name of this great discovery is dia-
midoarsenobenzol, or No. Cos" meaning
Dr. EhrIich's 6O6th discovery. According
to DR.. Meltzer new disease was recently
detected among the soldiers in the Philip
pines Two Of the men were broughht TO
the Rockefeller Institute, where under the
direction of Captain Henry ]. Nichols ex-
periments were made
1t was found that this disease has GER
tain similar blood organism to the other
disease for which the cure was designed.
Tests were made by inoculating monkeys
and rabbits and then treatment was given
by the serum, a quantity Of which DR..
Enrich had sent to the institute. To the
surprise Of the scientists the animals thus
treated entirely recovered.
"Dr Ehrlch has given to the world rem
edies for sleeping sickness and for remit
tent fever. These were wonderful, but he
did not stop here. About four years ago
he realized he was on the right track.
said DR.. Meltzer.
The disease which the new serum cures
/ is responsible for paresis locomotor ataxia
valyular disease OF the heart. etc.
Instances are recorded where cases OF
long standing have been cured in two
weeks. Three hours after the injection OF
the serum all the germs have been killed
and driven out of the system and the sores
have begun to heal Immediately. and the

BAR HAS MANY BRIGHT LIGHTS
As Omaha Grows, Legal Talent from
All Parts of the Country Join
the Long List for secur-
ing Justice for All.

Away back In 1889, twenty-one years ago,
when Omaha was just beginning TO grow,
a little company of about twenty-five men
banded themselves into an organization
known as the Omaha Bar association. The
object OF the association was ito main
tain the honor and dignity of the profess
sion OF the law, to promote a fellow feeling
among the members of the bar and to aid
in the due and expeditions dispatch OF the
business Of the courts of Justice"
That has been the end and aim of the
association from its inception down to the
present time; and II can easily be said
that the association has never failed to live
up to the standard set by that little band
of Omaha's earliest attorneys. Many times,
when concerted action on the part of
Omaha's legal talent was the only method.
the lawyers have worked together and have
brought about Improvements in the laws
OF both city and state.
Andrew ]. Poppleton, whose name will
live as long as there remains a city of
Omaha, was the first president and one of
the leaders in the Organization. His vice
president was Herbert j. Davis; Frank Ir-
vine was secretary and James w. Savage
was treasurer. Tho first executive council
\ consisted Of the following men; Joheph r.
Lake. Howard b. smith and Herbert ],
Davis.
For the first few years OF Its existence
the association worked no wonderful re-
forms; 1t was content TO bide it's time and
grow little larger. II continued to grow,
new members were added each year, and its
usefulness increased as the city grew and
prospered. end as the cIty's lawyers grew
and prospered likewise.
Then there came lull. For several years
the association remained inactive. Although
regular meetings were held and Officers
were annually elected, the organization did
little real work, But this state OF affairs
did not last.
