Chapter v. Lewis and Clark Expedi'

Chapter v. Lewis and Clark Expedi-
ton.
The year 1904 was happy one for
many of the Indians in Nebraska.
William Clark (see foot note) and
Meriwether Lewis, two United States
army captains, who looked like Henry
Clay, took q government expedition
to the Pacific coast.
The Indians didn't have any partic-
ular interest in the expedition, but
they did in the whisky which they
received from the "palefaces." Oh,
that this terrible curse should have
been fastened upon the trusting red
men!
The party consisted of nine young
Kentucky men, fourteen soldiers, two
French water men, an interpreter and
hunter and colored servant. All OF
these received large land grants from

while he was gyrating in the air, but
this may be mere error of percep-
ton.
When he was dozen years old
he became an apprentice in his
fathers picture frame shop in Gin
cinnati. There he made picture
frames, molding the gold faces by
hand. Then he sold picture frames
and later assisted in the sale Of
pianos. He did some work on the
farms, too, but found he was not
strong enough to enjoy pitching hay
into the loft or lifting the hayrack on
and off the wagon trucks.
He went back to his picture frames
and his gold gliding. After working
all week he would sally out and fiddle
for the dances all night.
Always his musical father was

there was no national board OF CEN
sorship i'll those days.
The expedition camped on the pres
ent site OF Omaha. Also where Fort
Calhoun now is, and at various other
Nebraska points.
They arrived back in St. Louis in
September, 1906, after two years and
three months in the wilderness.
Lewis and Clark were both given
easy government jobs. Lewis was
appointed governor Jof Louisiana ter

Long distance hiking trips are Tay-
lor Belcher's pet hobby, and almost
every Sunday finds him starting out
for some long tramp in the country.
He began the cultivation Of the art
several years ago, going usually alone,
and once in a while accompanied by
some fair damsel who was athletically
inclined.
However, the scarcity of long
distance-walking maidens necesstated
that the popular young bachelor in
dulge in his pet dissipation alone
until this year, when he has been
rescued from his solitary rambles by
one of Omaha's most attractive young
women, Miss Helen Scobie, who is at
present in Florida enjoying the out
door life of the tropics.
Miss Scobie, who is lover Of the
great out doors and is particularly
fond OF walking, accompanied Taylor
on several long tramps early in the
winter. They would. don sensible
English walking shoes and start early.
having some near by village for their
destination, usually dining at some
farm house at noon, and returning to
Omaha by train late in the day.
The last tramping excursion by
these pedestrians was not long before
Miss Seobie left for the south. They
took the train to Blair and then
walked to Herman, Neb., for one of
Mrs. Lloyd Burdic's Formerly Miss
Ida barlow Of this city, famous
chicken dinners. 81
! Taylor was one OF the Omaha boys
who went to the Plattsburg training
camp last summer, where he had
abundant training in hiking, so you
may be sure that he goes about it in
diligently and Systematically, deriv-
ing great deal Of benefit from the
exercise.
| While he does not claim that his
hobby is that Of being philosopher,
it goes without saying that August
Larson, proprietor Of Cunning street
thirst quencherie, is one. August is
full of realization of the fact that
within three months Omaha, and Ne
braska as well, is to be as dry as a
powder horn. Instead Of mourning
over the coming Of the new condition
August is making the best of it. and
in doing so is where he demonstrates
that he is aNphilosopher.

Asked if on his sign he had not
mixed his dates, August informs Wis
itors at his place that there is no mis-
take; that the law passed by the pres
ent legislature and the vote of the
people Of the state last November
has disposed Of the whole matter and
that MAY first will be the last of Au-

arguing the proposition.
Mrs. F. H. Cole, chairman OF the
civil service reform department of the
General Federation of Woman's clubs,
has a hobby and she admits 1t. Her
hobby is to promote interest in chem
istry in schools and colleges of the
country. She is endeavoring to have
another year Of chemistry added to
the Omaha High school course OF
study and would have this branch EN-
phasized in the seventh and eighth
grades Of the elementary schools. She
regards chemistry as one of the most
essential features of human knowl-
edge. She believes that chemistry
enters so closely into the everyday
life of the individual, that its general
knowledge should be promoted
Chemistry, she maintains, goes hand
in hand with high ideals and patriot
ism and for those who expect to enter
public service its value is inestimable

lays Of Yesterday.
Do you remember some Of the
)lays we attended in days gone by!
Remember the thrillers-the train
wrecks, the steamboat explosions, the
hero rescued by the heroine from the
track to which he had been tied by
the william Do you recall the stir
ring linesl
There was one play in which the
william accosted the hero with this
query: by what right do you inter-
fere?" The hero struck a defiant pose
and replied; The right Of any man
to protect woman in peril!' Where
upon the audience cheered Justify and
the william sneered CONTEMPORARY,
Here is one that almost knocked
us out of our seats: "At last, I've
got you, Jack Daltonp That~was a
big scene,swherein Jack was brought
to taw after series of escapades. 1t
was something OF relief when Jack
was brought to his knees. II we re-
member correctly, Jack was SO APP
preciative Of the fitness OF things that
he instinctiveH held out his hands
while the sheriff adjusted the hand
cuffs.
II won't sit by that city chap; he
wasn't good 10 our NelI,' was line
that won popular approval. This
bucholic youth who spurned the
favors Of the city chap never failed
TO nut one over"
Another line that evoked general
applause was: rags are royal raiment
when worn for virtues sake
a familiar scene in the days of the
thrillers was accompanied by the line.
Sign the papersp That was in the
days when every farm had mort
gage. Just as the old man, with
trembling hand, was about TO append
his Signature to "the papers, the

the distance. The hero rushes in just
in time to thwart the william and win

and Heaven will protect the working
girl" may be remembered as having
been identified with the thrillers OF
yesterday.
And do you recall how the hero and
heroine were called before the cur
tain and cheered and how we Kissed

close Of an act?
Him clazy."
Here is another bon mot from the
police departments recent safety

Your automobile may be under
control; but how about the other fell
low! He may be crazy man. You
don't know"
That sounds simple enough, but
what we would like to know is: In
the case OF two motorists travelling
toward each other, which one is to
think that the other may be crazy?
And suppose each one should think
the other to be crazy? And Just sup
posin each should be crazy and ncith-
er should know it,
