would Mean Much.
The value OF this electric advertising is APP
parent from the large amount of capital in
vested in the construction and maintenance
of the monster roof signs that are familiar
to every Omahan. But the field has by no
means been covered. A short trip on any
business street will show hundreds Of large
buildings admirably adapted for this class
Of display. Buildings OF this sort are going
up by the score. Nearly all of them over
top the surrounding structures and can be
seen for long distances. Most of these fac
tories display at least their name in huge
painted signs upon their walls.
An electric sign similarly paced would
give tremendous publicity to any business
at time when other signs are dead and
unnoticed Every factory so equipped
would acquire an actual tangible identity
i'm the minds of the public which no amount
of printed advertising could accomplish
alone. Many large concerns realize the
advantage of having their name in their
newspaper advertising and on their pack
ages of goods. They are known as an
| Omaha concern by Omaha people who see
their electric sign, talk about 1t and feel
a sort Of local pride in progressive bust
ness.
It will be the question of only a few
years before the main arteries OF travel
radiating from the heart of Omaha will be
as brilliantly illuminated by electric signs
Las Farnam street Is today Electric signs
viii make Omaha the Electric city Of
the west and give it a brilliancy that will
astound the traveller and at the same time
speak in no uncertain language of the
advantages OF community of progressive
| industries.

Sign Necessity To-day.

Not very long ago an electric sign was
considered a fad; today It is regarded as
p business necessity. Life and light start
with the same letter. Commercially, as
w. c. jenkins points out in a recent ar
ticle in the National Magazine, the words
are synonymous and the same is true of
darkness and business death. The streets
OF a dark city are usually deserted at
night, while well-lighted thoroughfare
attracts thousands who delight in an even
ing stroll and have money to spend.
The ultimate aim Of every advertiser is
to burn his name or that of his wares
into the minds of pedestrians, presumptiv'
shoppers, once their interest has beer
caught. 1t has therefore become one o.
the fundamental rules of successful pub
| licity that advertising shall appeal to thu
eye. With this idea in view nothing coult
succeed in accomplishing this result will
greater force than certain electric signs
which adorn Omahas streets.

One naturally expects the downtown

widespread use of the electric signs for ad-

TESTIMONY SHOWS HE TOLD
CONFLICTING STORIES, AND
THE SHOOTING COULD NOT
HAVE HAPPENED AS HE DE-
SCRIBED.
UNITED PRESS LEASED wrRr.l

Chesterfield, Va, Aug. 25.-Attor-
ney Smith of the defense today argued
that DR.. Munn's testimony yesterday
to the back Of Mrs. Beattie's head was
inadmissible because Beattie's indict-
ment stated that a wound Fin the
/ face" caused his wife's death.
Smiths motion was overruled, as
was his motion that all testimony re-
/ lating to the letter which Beattie
wrote Beulah Binford be excluded.
| Smith based the latter motion on
I the contention that Beattles admission
at the corOner's inquest that he wrote
the letter was privileged, and could
not be used against him
Taking the stand, George FARRELL, a
deputy sheriff, reclted the bearded
man" story which Beattle told just
after his wife was slain. He testified
that Beattie said he thought the man
intended to fire over his wife's head
to friNhten them when their automo-
bile was stopped on the Midlothian
pike.
farrell declared he went to the pike
after the killing and viewed the blood
spots in the road He said Beattie
drove the blood-soaked automobile
back to the scene of the crime, and
/ stopped 1t at the exact spot where he
had declared his wife was killed
During Jarrells cross examination
Beattie grew excited for the first time
since the trial began and talked vol
ubly to his attorneys.
Deputy w, S. Snydor was the next
witness He created a sensation when
he declared he had taken two blood
| hounds to the scene of the crime and
had found two footprints on the south
side of the road opposite the blood
stains. He said Beattie told him the
bearded man" stood at the autos
right side and fired over Beattie's
shoulder This conflicts with the story
Beattie told at the inquest, where he
said the man fired point blank from
( point on the left of the auto. Sny-
| dor added
81 asked him how his wife could
have been shot in the left side of the
face If she was fired at from the
right side. Beattie walked away and
made no reply"
On cross examination the defense
/ failed to weaken Snydor's testimony.
Mary Alexander, a negress, then
identified the gun as the one found
near the scene of Mrs. Beattie's mur-
der.

WOMAN WAS
STRUCK BY
AUTOMOBILE

While endeayOring to dodge a
number Of automobiles on State
street last evening, when the fire
alarm was sounded, a lady from the
country, who was visiting in the city
for the day, but whose name could
not be learned, was struck by ma
chine driven by Mr. Harding, Of
Harding & Wedebee and slightly in
jured.
The accident occurred about 8
o'clock. A fire alarm was sounded,
and it was the signal for every per-
son owning an automobile to leap
aboard and proceed in the direction
of the fire. Up State street they
sped at breakneck speed, and as
thick as the vermin that overspread
the earth at the tinp of Pharaoh, and
as much of an annoyance. The wo-
man was crossing the street from the
university grounds to the state
house. and had succeeded in dodg-
ing three or four machines. She
was keeping a watch for others com
ing up the street, and did not notice
the automobile of Mr. Harding,
which was coming down town, and
which was driven al a slow speed. He
signaled, but she did not hear it, and
then he tried to turn out of the way,
but he did not quite succeed as the
guard and the rear wheel struck the
woman.
She was taken 10 a home Of a
friend, where an examination was
made, and she was found to have sus
tanned only slight injuries.
