Who Owns This Car?
Owner Is Missing

Whether the owner of the machine
was ashamed to report its loss, or
whether he was glad to get rid of it,
is the battling problem the Omaha
police face in trying to locate the
owner Of a car which was found yes
terday in cornfield near Florence.
The machine was abandoned ten
days ago, according to B.. c. Loner-
gan, who found it, and after watching
over it for several days, he hauled it
under the shelter of his barn. Yester-
day he told the police. The machine
has the Nebraska license number 22o1
painted on it.
81 was afraid to leave it in the corn
field" said Lonergan, "for fear others
might be encouraged to abandon their
cars there"
There has been no complaint made
about the disappearance of the car,
police said, after looking through the
records. s.

MOTHER FIGHTS Big
DOG TO SAVE SON
Plucky Woman Meets Fero-
cious Beast and Finally
Conquers It.
FACE AND ARMS TORN

Desperately. offering herself to the
attack of vicious bulldog, which
clawed and bit her terribly, Mrs. Inez
Haney, wife of an employee of the
Waterloo creamery, living at 5000
Sherman avenue, fought with bare
hands for nearly half an hour yester-
day afternoon to save the life of Yer
non, her 8-year-old son, whom the
ferocious animal had first attacked.
She succeeded finally in choking
the beast into submission and chasing
it from her. Then she tainted.
Police Surgeon Meyers found her,
with her hands and face torn and
shredded, in. pitiful condition. Lit
tie Vernon was in critical shape, too,
as the result of the dogs fierce at
tack, and had it not been for his
mothers heroic interference he would
have literally been torn to pieces.
Screams for Help.
The dog is big English bull, and
had been kept chained in a coal shed
on account of his ferocity. The
Haney home is nearly a hundred
yards in any direction from the near
est neighbor. When little Vernon
went out into the shed the dog
leaped on him, knocking him down.
The boy screamed for help, and
fought with all his puny strength, but
the animal was too strong and bit
and tore at will.
Mrs. Haney heard the screams of
her child and ran to his rescue. The
dog had slipped out of his collar and
growing and biting the boy when she
came up. There was not a weapon
handy, so she met the attack of the
beast with her bare arms, and at the
same time giving the boy a chance
to run into the house. She screamed
repeatedly for help, but her cries were
unheard, and for nearly half an hour
she battled in desperation for her own
life, which she had risked for her
loved one.
Weighs Under Ninety.
Mrs. Haney is a little woman,
weighing less than ninety pounds and
the big dog was more than match
for her strength, but she finally tired
him out and got away from him.
DR.. Meyers pronounced her in criti-
cal shape, and said that the boy, too,
would have hard time before re-
covering from the frightful expert
ence. Both are at their home under
care of physicians.
An effort of police and neighbors to
find the dog proved fruitless, though
the hunt continued for long while.
Police have orders to shoot it on
sight. 1t is massive notified white
beast, weighing about forty pounds.

Horseshoers to York
For Next Convention

Hastings, Neb., Oct. 22.-(Special
Telegram. What is declared by
many of the delegates to have been
the most successful state convention
of the blacksmiths, horseshoers and
wheelwrights of Nebraska ever held
in this state came to close last
night, after York had been chosen
for the next annual gathering and the
old officers had been reelected.
The meeting was especially notable
fot the agreement on the new sched-
ule of prices, which, it is estimated,
will mean about 100000 additional
each year in the receipts of the trade
An officer explained this morning
that this will just about balance the
increase of materials, labor and other
expenses during the last year or so.
The officers reelected are: Presi-
dent, G. S. Fisher, Kenesaw; vice
president, J. Miller, North Bend;
secretary-treasurer, c. c. Good, Au-
burn.

TALKS OF STATES BIRDS

In the wilds of New York City, il is
rumored, there are still individuals
who think of Omaha as trading post,
and that Indians instead of ticket
scalpers are operating in the down.
town district. Among the many visit
ors who attended the first winter
meeting of the Nebraska Audubon So
ciety, held in the public library last
evening, there was more than one who
at the start considered that the birds
of western Nebraska consisted mainly
OF the game specie and that the prairie
land knew little of the songsters.
1t was the beginning of the Audi
bons proposed educational campaign
and DR.. Robert Walcott of the state
university at Lincoln was the speaker
of the evening. DR.. Walcott's sub
Ject was one with which he probably
is more familiar than anv other bird
student in this locality, "The Birds of
Western Nebraska"
Those who thought the western
portion of our state was scarce in the
feathered optimists know different
now. A summer spent in adding new
material to his store of knowledge on
the subject and a collection of SPLEEN
did stereopticon slides made DR.. Wal
colts address most interesting and in
structive.
He covered the ground thoroughly,
enumerating the different birds, their
habits and the particular locations in
which they built their nests, and told
how best to search for and find them.
1t was splendid beginning for the
Audubons and DR.. Walcott was greet
ed by large. attentive and interested
audience.
DR.. Walcott strongly advocated the
establishment of preserves for game
birds, particularly of the web-footed
variety, so that they might be unmo-
Tested in the breeding season. He
stated positively that the number of
game birds that breed in this state is
on the increase, owing to the decrease
of available grounds in neighboring
states.
The Nebraska Audubon society took
up the question and will strive to Sc
cure the preserves.
Two hundred suet boxes will be
purchased by the society to be placed
throughout the parks for the birds to
feed from during the winter.
