AN OPEN LETTER TO THE PUBLIC.

1t is bnt just to my patrons that conditions of
vital interest should he made clear.
Two years ago this store instituted the one-prce
polcy-the honest system of doing business and no
is "friend" enough to get much tenth Of one
per cent off the plainly marked prices goods
No one receives an "extra ten" here and frankly
admit that such practice prevails in the iewulry bust
Therefore, it is necessary that insist most
emphaticaly that this is the lowest price iewelry store
in Omaha-that the prices always Teguar-never
special
The Jewelry business really cannot permit of pro
miscuous prce-cutting. 1t is business where goods
should maintain established values prices.
The integrity and wisdom of this system is clear
to every intelligent person and any prospective
toner failing to buy here will please remember this
predction-they will eventually back to MS
We feel that it might be better to exist without
customers than without principles. Very naturally
principles must be accompanied by policy liberal and
fair Courtesy, kindness, agreeable sales all
of these things enter into the selling of goods but the
integrity of house is the quality the public is most
concerned in.
Just more word--in all sincerity-in most
positive tems-we challenge price comparison with
any jewery store in the West or in Chicago or New
York. We building up great ewelry business
for Omaha.
Very truly yours,
ALBERT EDHOLM,
Jeweler Sixteenth and Harvey.

AFTER UNTAGGED DOGS.
Poundmaster Einstein Expects K
Capture Those Not Licensed.

Poundmaster Samuel Einstein is pre-.
pairing to enter upon q vigorous cam
paign for the capture Of all unlicensed
dogs. The new license year began July
l. but. so far. only 1000 licenses have
been issued, as compared with a total OF
1900 that were issued last year. This
has led the poundmaster to conclude thai
there Is lot Of work ahead OF him and
he is mending his nets and making other
arrangements to capture the untagged
CANNES.
Dog tag No. 1 was issued to Charles
c. Rogers. collector OF taxes for the Dis
trict The tag is worn by Mr.. Rogers
brindle bull terrier, Betsy.
There is believed to be but little prob
ability OF the Commissioners deciding to
continue the doz-muzzling order unit
Immediately preceding August IL. which
is the date set for the expiration Of the
order. Commissioner Rudolph will not
return until that time, and 1t is moi
thought that any action will be taken In
the matter during his absence.
The health department, as yet, has
made no recommendation for the contin-
uation of the order, but In view of the
number OF recent mad dog scarce there
is believed to be little doubt that
the Commissioners will be asked to con-
tinue the order for another year.

The receipts OF hard crabs from the
lower Potomac and from Chesapeake

terday the receipts were fairly heavy.
though nothing like as heavy as they
were last July at this time. Where the
crabber last year was able to catch two
or three barrels in a few hours each
morning, reports from the lower river

ting one barrel in the same period. The
crabs this season are small In size but
are good and fat. Soft she'll crabs con-
tinue fairly plentiful and are In good de-
mand at prices ranging from so cents to
10 cents per dozen. wholesale.
Receipts of fresh fish from the Atlantic

tinue good but the receipts from the
nets in the Potomac are light Trout

NEW MYSTERY STORY.
By Gelett Burgess Begins in Our
Sunday Magazine Tomorrow.

The finest connected series Of tales that
have been published in some years are
in all probability those that have been
written for our Sunday Magazine by
Gelett Burgess. which will begin in our
issue tomorrow. They bear the general
title, Who Was Belle Carillon?' and the
subtitle, "A New York Arabian Nights
Entertainment" OF a truth, they are an
Arabian nights entertainment, for they
possess that strange quality that made
those eastern tales immortal, and yet
they are right down to date, and the
strange dramatic, romantic incidents
take place right in New York city. and
all in the space Of twenty-four hours. If
was. to quote the author. you must go
with John Fenton on his quest, hither
and yon, over New York, into strange
houses and through side streets at mid
night a shuttle in the secret loom of
fate. weaving in and out through many
colored threads. until the pattern Of the
mystery is made clear. For the warp
Of his strange, adventurous career-love
and beauty and diamonds. For the wool
some new cross currents of crime and
misery
Fenton was an architects clerk at the
time the tale opens, though he has been
pushed hither and yon through his earlier
years. first with one set of acting par
eQlS, lUcu announcer, not KNOWING VIII MS
father and mother were. But, somehow,
the name Of Belle Carlton and a strange
ruby ornament seemed to be vaguely con-
nected with his career. elusive and yet
SO real at times that he actually saw her,
until finally the great mystery was UNI
raveled.
In the first installment Fenton was hav-
ing his fortune told, when the police
raided the place. In escaping down a fire
escape he was astounded to see a beau
iful octoroon girl frantically picking up
bagful of wonderful precious stones
from the floor Fearing the entry Of the
police, she thrust them into Fenton's
pockets and told him to rush down to a
cafe called 6cheffel Hall, where she
would meet him. Thereby is this strange
tale fairly started off, with it's admix-
ture Of wonderful variations by the va
rious characters from time to time and
the repeated loss and recovery of the
gems, through the Vaccinations Of a
gang Of villains. And the different stories
that are told are SO varied and remark
ably handled that Mr.. Burgess stamps
himself almost a genius.
Various heads In the opening part show
what happened at Tho House Of the
Fortune Teller" and at Scheffel Hall,
with the beginning Of the octoroon's
story OF 1.-THE Dead Fare" The series
will be completed In ten installments.

sonal Appeal.

Jury Fails to Agree.
A few weeks ago Jury before
which she was examined as to her
mental condition failed to agree on q
verdict, and Mrs. Silsby has been In
carcerated awaiting the hearing held
yesterday.
The mother Of the young woman and
several former friends testified to GER
tain actions on her part which in their
opinion evidenced an unbalanced mind.
Expert testimony also declared the
young woman to be insane.
Makes Successful Appeal.
Mrs silsby and her attorney. Walter
P. Plumley. combated this testimony.
The widow for more than an hour test-
fed before the jury and 50 impressed it
that its verdict of sanity was reached
after only few minutes elaboration.
Mrs. Silsby left the courthouse with a
high school teacher, who said the lib
Grated woman would reside with her
temporarily. The plans of Mrs. Silsby
have not been decided on. but she ex-
