RANDALL URGES NEBRASKANS
TO HAVE SANE FOURTH
Fire Commissioner Says Time Is Now
to Think of Character of
Celebration.
CFrom a staff Correspondent

LINCOLN, June ESPECIAL. Fire Com
missioner Charles A. Randall today issued
a bulletin relating to a sane Fourth of
July celebration for Nebraskans In IL the
fire commissioner calls attention to the
casualties of the old-fashioned celebration
and urges the people TO spend less for
powder and more for less dangerous things
The bulletin in part reads as follows:
ION July 4. 1910, there were 2,98 per-
sons injured, of whom 131 died; 81 deaths
were due to tetanus and 10 were caused
outright by firearms; Ii by explosion OF
powder bombs or torpedoes; 8 by cannon or
similar contrivances; there were 70 cases OF
lockjaw; 20 people lost their sight; 26 lost
arms. legs or hands; al lost fingers. while
2s, mostly little girls, were burned to
death by fire from fireworks. This is a
startling showing. but II has been mater
tally reduced since 1908. when there were
nearly double the number injured and four
times as many lives lost. The reduction in
injuries and fatalities has largely been
brought about by the calling of the atten-
ton OF mothers and fathers and Of the
dealers in these deadly explosives to the
results that attend them when placed In
the hands of inexperienced persons.
THE officers and business men Of every
town In this state should see TO It that
everything Of an inflammabls nature Il re-
moved to prevent conflagration and the
destruction Of property by careless use
Of fireworks and explosives. In several
states city and village councils have passed
ordinances forbidding the use OF explosives
within the city or village limits. 1t is not
too late for councils to enact ordinances
that will prevent the sale and use OF these
dangerous articles at the coming Fourth
OF July and l urgently ask that you give
this matter careful attention. as 1t will
not only save thousands OF dollars WORT
OF property. but will prevent the loss O.
life and limb In the state"

Something to Read and Think About

After many provoking delays South
10th is paved past our store. The new paw
ing is smooth and nearly noiseless. 1t is
moisture retaining and consequently cool.
South 10th is now the finest retail street
in Omaha.
Three years have brought wonderful
improvements on South 10th street. This
store stands in the heart of the newer re-
tail section. Three years ago this store
was at the southern edge. Comparatively
nothing below this big building and
vacant lot above us.
Today large, enterprising firm is do
ing handsome business full block below
u.s. The City National Bank Building
stands on the site that was vacant when we
opened this store Many hundred business
and professional people occupy its office
rooms. Five representative mercantile es-
Establishments occupy its ground floor space.
While this growth has been making
this store has not stood still. Building OPP
erations and street improvements have not
interfered with its advancement. It's prog
ress can be attributed to but one thing
its policies.
So called Especial Sales" have not
been factor. We have maintained that
the Special sale-used in such profusion by
most Omaha clothiers-was an imposition
on the public. The time honored reason
given for sales have long since become OBJ
solete. Some clothiers, however, don't
know it, The public does.
Through all this bombardment of
Especial" sales-through all the inconven-
fences of public improvements-this stores
business shows a handsome increase each
day, each week and each month. We make
this statement knowing it will be criticized.
Merchants of the hip-hp-h Murray, some
thing for-nothing kind will question it.

HARD SEASON
FACES YALE
Blue Will Row Cornell, Prince
ton and Pennsylvania in Ad-
ditiOn to Harvard.

Yale crews have hard schedule of
races ahead of them this season. In
addition to the annual spring regatta,
the Blue Will meet Princeton and Cor
nell on Carnegie Lake, the University
of Pennsylvania and Harvard. The
last event, the most important on the
program, viii finish up the season.
Rowing experts will watch the Cor
nell Yale Princeton races with consid-
cradle interest. Not only will the con-
test mark Princeton's debut in inter
collegiate aquatics after an absence of
many years, but II will furnish a stan
dard by which to judge the relative
merits of the New London and Pough-
keepsie crews.
Cornell has long been mistress of the
Hudson, and the Ithacans look for an
other victory this year. Should this be
the case and should Yale defeat Har-
vard the victor in the Carnegie Lake
regatta would have something tangible
upon which to base Il claim as the best
college crew of the year.
"Oid Man" Courtney aroused great
interest In the Cornell student body
with his system of intercollege races.
All the schools of the university are
represented In a big regatta planned by
the Ithacan rowing authorities. This
Ii one of Courtnev's methods for
bringing out material for his crews.
Coach Ten Eyck of Syracuse is not
having an easy time getting his crews
In shape this season. Latest reports
from Syracuse state that many of the
men Of the varsity caliber are inell-
glble to row on account of scholarship,
Ten Eyck has made an earnest appeal
to the men to make up their dencien-
cies that they may keep their seats in
the boats.

TALK TO BOYS

pearing at one of the local theaters
as strong men, held reception ut
Baron's gymnasium yesterday after
noon to meet the juvenile class under
Instructor George Duncan.
From ten to twelve are the ages OF
the boys In the class, and each week
they have a race of some kind, walnut,
which Is like n potato race, or relay.
or something of the sort, and the win
ner Is presented with some sort of
trophy by the instructor, last week II
being pair Of plated dumb bells.
Yesterday there was "A dumb bell
race on and the prize was won by +.

making the presentation Of a book in

with the strong men, and watched all
they did with interest.
Jack Younger showed the juniors
what could be accomplished by syste-
matte training and careful habits, and
his display of muscular power was
greeted with many cheers. ..
Harry Younger entertained them
with some balancing work, which they
were talking about when they left the
class and which they probably dream
ed about last night after they went to
bed.
This class of youngsters IL the most
interesting of any ut Baron's school,
for they take keen interest In their
work, even IL they are boisterous and
full of fun part of the time.
1t Is the whole life of the place to
see the Riddles go through their work.
II Is the plan to have some strong
men or well-known athlete up to talk
to the boys occasionally outside of
their instructor and Professor Baron
This gives the boys a chance to see
what they are working at, and the re-
suits which can be accomplished, maxi
ing stronger impression on them

The Younger brothers We're surprised
at the clean work the boys put up,
and said many complimentary things
to them about II.
