over his left arm.
1t seems that when the waiter takes
down the hat and overcoat, rubs the
hat with a velvet(pad, brushes the coat,
holds the garment. and then reaches for
his tip ii is not his money altogether,
but part of il is the head walters
After much computation II has been
learned that S14 is missing, this making

A FAT WOMAN
HATES SOCIETY

Fat people have to get into clothes that are
designed for people of normal physique. The
men wear dress suits and look like comic
pictures. The women wear low necked
dresses to their evident humiliation. This
Is why II is often said that a fat woman
hates society. Fat is as much the mistake
Of poor health anything else. The
things that make fat should be making good
blood bone and nerves The secret Is that
the digestive machinery is out Of gear. The
juices make fat in too large quantities. This
fat impedes circulation, cramps the heart,
suppresses the liver, crowds the lungs and
interferes with the stomach. Marmola Tab
lets are harmless. They are taken after each
meal. They help digest that meal nature
intended 1t should be digested. They re-
move the fat already made at the rate Of
from II to Is ounces day and they leave
no iabby skin or wrinkles. They are sold
wherever drugs are sold. or in the same cat
egory with harmful patent fat reducers.
They contain Marmola. Cascara Aromatic
and Peppermint water. II you do not care
to call upon your druggist, send 70 cents to
The Marmola Co., 81, Farmer Bldg, De-
troit. Mich. and they will send you a large,
full size case by return mail in plain pack

.GAYNOR AND DIX TO
SEEK DELEGATION
FROM new YORK
New York Mayor Still Nurs-
ing His Ambitions for
Presidency.

That Mayor William ]. Gaynor, Of
New York, has by no means abandoned
his Presidential ambitions and that he
is still showing symptoms of having
designs on the White House, is the in
teresting political gossip that is float
ing about the Capitol. 1t Is asserted on
refusing to release New York Demo-
cratic politicians from their pledges to
support him for the Presidency.
Prior to the Rochester convention last
year and the shooting of the mayor, he
and his friends had framed up a pro-
gram that was intended to elevate him
to the governorship, and then to the
White House. Certain pledges were Sc
cured in support of this program. The
physical condition of Mayor Gaynor
about the time of the Rochester con-
vention prevented him from entering
the governorship race. But the story
goes he has never resigned his hopes
of somehow landing in the White
House, and is still keeping the wires
laid to endeavor to get the delegation
from New York for the next Democratic
pational convention if il promises to be
of any use to him.
On the other hand. Governor Dix and
his friends would like to get a Dix
delegation from New York. Under the
circumstances, strong movement in
the State may be expected to get the
delegation for New York man and not
let 1t go to Wilson, Clark or Harmon.
Leader Murphy, of Tammany, and other
Democratic politicians are said to be
convinced that 1t will be best to have a
delegation named for some New York
man, and then to trade 1t to the man
who is going to win the nomination in
the national convention at the opportune
time.

officially take up his duties on July
/, is expected to arrive in Washing

Franklin School building tomorrow
afternoon.
DR.. Davidson has notified Capt.
James F. Oyster, president of the
board, that he would; endeavor to
leave Omaha in time to reach WASH
ington tomorrow morning.
Because of the fact that a number
of teachers already have left the

for DR.. Davidson until the schools
open again in the fall At that time
the board probably will arrange for
a reception which will give the teach
ers an opportunity to meet the new
superintendent.
The meeting of the Board of Edu-
cation tomorrow has been called for
the purpose of disposing Of unfinished
business left over from the other
meetings of the year.

Fight for Title.
The Home railway and the Jarvis
road both needed a certain piece of
ground. Jarvis determined to fight for
it. One day the two construction parties
came to the inevitable clash; there was
pitched battle which cost two lives
and In which several people were in
tured. The Jarvis gang came of VIC

River roads monopoly secure
As already told, nothing ever came
or the EFFORT to prosecute for those
murders. Political influence has been
charged; corruption OF grand juries, and
the like.
Whether the lid can be kept down any
longer, IN view OF the sensational death
Of Jarvis, nobody is yet able to guess.
1t Is expected that early this week the
House will adopt resolutions calling on
the Attorney General and the Secretary
of War for information concerning the
charges against Jarvis and others. 1t
has been charged that for a year
detailed information has been in pos
session Of the Department of Justice
concerning one of Jarvis transactions
collusive and fraudulent deal in coal
for forts in Alaska-and that the de-
partment has failed to proceed until
the statute of limitations has operated

The death of Jarvis, il was explained
today, will not end the matter. 1t ends
the troubles Of Jarvis only. Why the
Administration has failed so many times

Jarvis were still alive. Alaskans today
