The probibition and anti-probibition elements have come together for the ono great object of giviog their party ono of its old time ma- Jorities in this state. Chairman Mack of the stato cominittes has rewurned from Minneap- olis and says that Minueapolis has ampiy rovided for tne convention by building a all which will hold about 13,000 peoplo. Jowa will send 400 republicans to the convon- tion, and they have organized into a large political club. The delegates to this conven- tion from lowa report that in their districts there is the greatest enthusiasm, and that Towa will no longer be classed as doubtful by opposing partics. ¥ s Has Made Enemles. The democrats of this state will soon hold their state convontion in Council Bluffs and from present indications it is hard to tell Just where the lightmng will strike. Itis known that the Iowa delegation will go to the national_convention instructed for Boies for president with Cleveland as second choice. But there has been developed an antagonism to Boies sinco tho election last fall and even his warmest admirors are froo to confess that ho has made enomies in quarters whero heshould have raade friends, Hill and Cleveland both have ardeut ad- mircra, buy the ex-president is tho choice Wi it comes down to uctual facts. Of course the democrats will push Boies, bnt they concede that ho will bo fortunate if he receives the sccond post of honor on the presigential ticket, This feeling 1 coused by the way Palmer of Iilinois is coming to the front. In sport. g parlance Palmer looms up to the Towa democrats like a four-time winner.” 1f this should be the case Boies will not be in it. However, the Hawkeyve democrats aro all patriotic enough to want an Iowa man on the ticket and will work hard for Boies, ‘Tho fact of the mattor is that outside of tho stato tickot last full and during the muni- cival elections this spring, the democrats have presented a badly disorzanized front and were easy ¢amo to the ropublicans, Weaver's Presidontial Anticipations, Tno third party still lives and Woaver and Donnelly-are united.

Jim has been in almost every political party that has beon organized during the past thirty-five years. Des Moines is rapidly developing into a city of scunsations.

F. W, Foster., Toxt, Luke 12, 19-20, **‘And I will say to my soul—Soul: Thou hast much goods laid up for many years, tako thine case, eat, drink and be merry.” But God said uunto him **T'hou fool,” this night thy soul shall be r quired of the; then whose shall theso things e which thou hast providea " Covetousness appears to bo the unnatural growth, 110 & moustrosity, of oue of the most necessary and beneficial traits of the buman mind or heart, Prudence, independ- ence, seif-esteem and self-support, the provi- dent caro of oue's family, or those depeadent upon one, must bo considered as among tho virtues of o people. 1f these virtues grow in toe soil whero there is genuine love for men, thers is no danger that there will' "bo any monstrous growth. But, if thero is no such love, self-esteem is likely to develop into selfish- ness, and independence is liablo to develop iuto impudence, and pruderce and providenco will becoine covetousness. The great danger dics not €0 much in the simple wish to have wealth for tho benefits and common com- forts (hat it brings, as in the thirst for i, because of tho gratification of pride aund lusts, and ambition, which becomes possible 10 those who have great wealth. A thirst for wealth seems to he as con- taglous as tho yellow fever, and more de- structive, So common is this moral and spiritual disease that when auy one does ally get over it, and becomes wholly un- lfish, it is o maiter which attracts a great deal of attention, both in the business world and i circles of Christian pecple. Covetousness, in its various manifesta- tions, is” in & peoulisr sonse & most promi- ment wrait in the Auglo Saxon race, (reat Britmin is the richest nation in Europe, and our wealth in this country exceeds hers by probably half a billion dollarss In 1534 our wenlth was §70,000,000 greater than Kng- land’s, We, of this country, are the young- est of the natious, and vel' we are many times tho riches! Less than forty years ago for our astonistiuent, that *some Kunglish fortunes excecded a million dollars @ year.” But now, in this conntry, there are” more than one or two whose income exceods & mil- liou dollars a month, In Europe, genorations havo been required to build up ‘the private fortuncs, but hcre, many and wost of the mililonaires bave accumulated their wealth o a few years und during theirown life time. 1f wo face the history of tho nations that have lived, but have passed away; and if we liston to the testimony of those who have tried to feed thoir souls on the “‘much goods that they had laid up for many years,” we will find that Christ's discription of the rich fool 15 very true to real life. kis lucreasing wealth suggested o his mind, all shriveled up aud sorded, no avenno for blessing his fellows, us God had blessed bim with the abundant harvests; he saw no way to get any satisfaction out of tne great harvest ex- cept by storiog it up in onlarged barns for bis soul to feast upon, and so bo calls upon bis soul: “Soul, take thine ease, vat, drick aod be werry, for, soul, thou shdlt teed upon corn for many years, thou shait feed upon Lhe corn as the fattening bog, as the swine in the mire, so sbalt thou take thine ease and et fat!

Can we for a moment doubt what the duty of tne church is respecting the work of the Lord when we know the enormous wealth that God 1 pouring into her lap every year! What opportunities are presented to us by the possession of this wealth? God seems to_expect that we will hasten the appearing of the Lord, that with the resources at our command will do for the world in ten years more than tas been dono sometimes in'a thousand years. Money has been sometimes called tho modern miracle worker. No matter of sur- prise, then, that Satan desires to have such complote coutrol of this modern gigantio power. Yeos; Satan wants to completely control this modern miracie worker; and it seems that God is giving His church just enough of tho wealth of the world to show the world that we are going to have all *his immense power used for the glory of God, Money is a mighty power in the world in tho hands of the church, Lf every one of us would use it for the glory of our God, who shall say how soon the millenium would dnwn upon tho carth, There wasa poor factory hand in Lowell, Sarah Hosmer, who, Yhough very poor, supported a student in tho Nestorian seminary who bocamoa_preacher of Jesus Christ. Five times she gave #50 to support a native foreign missionary. When mcere than 50 vears old she still longed to furnish one more preachor for the foreign field, nud sho took 1n sewlng ano deniod hersolf until sho bad accomplished her ov- ject. Oh! my brethren, sho was wiso! How her crown will sparkle, resplendantly, with the stars sho will have in it. How poor and empty some of our crowns will seem in com- parison when we remom b how much reater have been our, opportunities. Dear God, our Father, dear Jesus our Savior, we pray Theo to deliver us from tho folly of these who hang all their hopes of happiness upon the things of this world. Help us, wn pray Theo, to_escape the folly of the rich man who talked to his soul as he might talk to a swine. Help every one of us t0 be rich toward God.

Suggestions to Parchasers of Homes on the Partial Payment Plan. A week ago Tur B called attention to tho growing practice among people of moder- ate means of buying homes on tho partial paymout plan, and J. B. Beanctt of Bloome field, Nob., communicates the following on tho same subject: “In your issue of the 18th you have an articlo on reul estate, tho buying and selling of homes on tho easy payment plan. As I have given this matier some attention of late I feel that a few suggestions now might be benelicial to buyers and sellers. Wage earn- ers who attempt to purchase homes on . the monthly paymeat plan have boen in many in- stances handicapped by oxcessive payments falling due once or twice a year, as interest, taxes, etc., that they aro unable to meet and with 10 clause it their contract for the pro- tection of tho purchaser. Should be fail to make a paymeut promptly be must at once lose his interest in tho property. While wo are al! desirous of selling our proverty and looking out for our own pro- tection as to the profit of tho investment, iuterest, possession, etc., we must look equelly well 1o tne protection of the interests of tho purchaser, 1o seo that he has a fair show. For instance, vou con- sider for him the olements of investment and rent; for the purchaser, profits in ac- cumulative interest, ‘hese eclements, if properly considered, ure almost identical with the general principles of life insurance, and to further prove my loyaliy to this theory 1 have formulated a certificate of salo on this basis. I take a note for 1 per cent of tho consideration each wonth for 166 months without interest. This allows S por cont per annum on the sale, as any mathematician can rendily figure out. This certilicate and notes are deposited in somo bank or trust company for collection and safo keeping, time after twelye payments have be should tbhe purchaser feel dissatisfied with his bargain and wish to give up immediute possession (if the property is in as good re- pair us whon he found it), I agree to pay him i cash 1% per cent of all money paid by him, and atany time he way wish to pay any or all of tho notes before due he shall ba entitled to a discount of 8par cent perannum. At any time after one-tnird of these notes have been paid 1 agree to make a warrantee deed and take a mortzage due in five years at 8 ver cent per anuum for the remaining uotes, after first deducting 8 per cent interest per annum for the time they run, Kor example a house sold for §3,000 would make a monthly pa, ment of #50. Any time after twelve monthly paymonts this would entitle the purchaser to § n month rebate if ke wished to quit, or its equivalent jn extended time, After paying one-third of llla notes he would owe net principal *after deducting the interest, ‘This 18 o slow process, it is true, but within the reach of every tenant and a safe salo for the owner. Shoiild the tenant fail by any means to matuve this certificate ho is only out a nominal rent. The original owner has his proverty and hus haa his interest monthly. I believe this method to be equally fair with buyer and seller, and expect to adoptit where similar terms are required. Should uny reader feel intercsted enough to write me I will gladly mail a printed form of one of these certificates.” — Knlghts of tho Maccabees, Omaha tent No. 3, of the Knights of the Maccabees, was duly oreasized and officers wstalled last Friday evening at Walnut Hill by Deputy Supreme Commander James Me- Kim of Sterling, 111, : Past Commander, John Hoffman; commander, k.

Funeral April 24 THE WORK OF KLEPTOMANIACS How Merchants' Profits Are Reduced by Raids of Hightoned Shoplifters., SOME NOTABLE OMAHA INSTANCES Peculinr Excuses Given by Women Who Attempt te Cloak Thelr Petty Pilterings ~Floor Walke Thieves o 's Experience with Kleptomanines. Apropos to the young Mrs, Willoughby kleptomania case, in which the pretiy young woman was fined tho other day in police court §850 for having a morbid desire to steal articles from dry goods stores, briugs to mind many similar kieptomania stories and facts as related by floor walkers of the lurgest re- tail stores and 1n police courts, Thousands of dollars’ worth of rich silks and fancy zoods are stolen annually by shop- lifters, Ouo Sixteenth street merchant alone claims that his yearly loss from those who have an irresistible impulse to steal is some- thing Liko §5,000 or 6,000, A working girl or poor woman has no business being a shop-lifter. Sho will suc- cend only in gotting into jail, But the most feared of all shopliftors is tho woman who calls herseif a kleptomaniac, There are few male kleptomaniacs. Tho well dressea woman is subject to little or no espionage In a crowded store, bat the woman shabbily attired is under sur- veillance wherever she makes ner way. It is this immunity from inspection that makes casy the kleptomaniac's work. She is alway carofully dressed and ladyliko in appoar ance, and indeed, in all other respects than that of her crazo for pilfering, her lifo is usually an exomplary oue. Women with a propensity to thievishne: who politely call themselves kleptomania as a cover for their name as well as the goods thoey steal, are rarely prosecuted by the owner or manager of a dry goods house, If tho woman is known she 1s at timos al- lowed to retain ber plunder, a bill of which is sent to her husband or family. If she bo unkpown, ana_the value of the goods which sho has taken is £o small as to prove that she 1s nota professional shoplifter, she is sometimes ailowed to go her way, the ends of justice being of less account in'the shop- keeper's eyes than the trouble to which a prosecution would put him. So thero aro now in several well-to-do homes in Omaha women who bave been de- tected in stealing many and many a time, vet who have nover figured in the polics court and as a matter of fuct never will. Society in_both this_city and incil Bluffs, as well as in all cities throughout the ountry, have their kleptomaniacs. A floor alker in a large Sixteenth street bazaar told his experiences with them to a reporter for Tug 13ie when the Willoughby case was veing discussed, “Holiday time the kloptomaniac's son,” said he. *‘Our floors are fairly jam- d with people, and the clerksaro worried /s m beyond belief, Stealirrg, is then ve easy. Look at this lace scarf, its worth yet'it cau bo folded so small as to fit nicéiy in your vest pocket. Imagine how nicely a woman’'s cloak or skirt would hide it. “Speuking of laco scarfs,” he went on, “remiuds mo of an occurrence last winter. A finely dressed woman came in here. I was standing over by the ribbon counter and her appearance struck mo as being rather pecul- iar. She was looking out of tho corners of her eyes all the time, as if ske wero afraid of being followed. If [ was gréen in the busi- ness 1I'd have put her down at ouce for a shoplifter, but I've had a longer training and Isaw that this was a kleptomania “Yot she acted almighty queer. I got be- hind that pillar and kept an eyeon her. She asked tho salesman to show her some real luce fichus. He got down a couplo of boxes of them. They didn’t suit her and sho asked to see somo more. Byeand bye the counter was covered with our costliest scarfs. Still she was not sauisfiea. Tho salesman went to the further end of the counter and bent down to pick out somo boxes of lace. Quick as a flash the wowan slipped two scarfs into her muff, The salesman returned. Says she: *‘Nover mind, I won't buy today,’ and away she walked.” The floor walker said he knew then that she was not a professionul pilferer, for her face was red as fire and she trembled likeo a leaf, 'When he touched her on the shoulder sho fairly wilted. She didn’t offer any re- sistanco ‘when he told ner that she must be searched. “And what do you think?” he continued. ‘‘She bad at least §00 worth of laces hidden away. They came from about every store in Omaha for 1 could tell them by taeir tags.” What was her excuset'* *“The queorest I ever heard. She said that her husband forced her to go out and steal. Tasked for bis namo, She wouldn’t give it. I hela up her card case, which we had taken from her with the otber things, and said, *Aren’t you Mrs. So-and-Sof’ She began to cry at that, and I saw that I was right, [ sent for her husband ut once. He is quite a prowinent busiaess mau, and when I told him all about 1t he broke dc and blub- bered like a baby. He suid that his wife was always getting 1nto trouble by stealing from stores; the desire was born in her, and reformation was impossible, “*Well,” conciuded the floor walker, “he paid for'the goods taken from our store and the affair was hushed up. But if the guests who visit this lacy only knew the sort of fiugers that their bostess has, I'll bet they would leave their wraps in their carriages or keep them on,” Generally a talkative storekeoper of a large dry goods bouse has a rich fund of stories about well-to-do women kleptomaniacs, Oue of the stories ran in this wis Just_before last Christmas, a young girl went into one of the leading stores and strolled about, apparently with no other desire than to look on. Her idleness at- tracted the arteation of a floor walker, and be followed her, After snuntering about in a leisurely man- nersbio went to tho glove counter, took a pair of gloves from an open box and co waiked away. The floor whiker did not séizo hor, preforring to see if sho would steal anything else, She walked about the store, touching nothing, and then to his surprise returaed to the glove counter and repeated her first oper- ation, Again she strolled to the farther end of the store and again she returned to steal third pair of gloves, Sho had six pairs hid- den when the tloor walker whisperea 1 ber the manager of the storo would like 10 sen her, he tried to brazen out of the affair, deolaring that it was an outrago, tout she would not go to see bim, and that sho would su the storekeeper for camages. But the floor walker merely laughed and took her by the arm. She went with him unwillingly. " for Mr, —-," commauded th e floor walkerjto u cash boy, naming the proprie- tor's son. The girl gave a shrick of terror, “No! No! Not he!” she cried. *I am guilty. I admit it, But do uot sead for him,” she fairly begged, Her pleadings were in vain. The floor walker paid no beed to ber outery, and in a short time the young man came into the oftico where the girl stood. *'1 shall never forget the look on his face,” saidyTue Bee's informant. **He looked as if something had struck bhimin the ey e was dumbfounded.” “ ‘Kate, is this you? he askea, *Sbe hung down her head and wouldn't npf;ln He turned to tne floor walser and suid : **‘Let this woman go,’ and there was the most woeful sound in_ his yoice that 1 ever beard, She went away without saying an- other word, but whén they put ber in a carriage at the door she fainted dead aw: “Who was she! you ask. I'hav will never do to make public, but at any rate thero was OMAHA DAILY BEE *Tree,’”” Selma Anares told of tho ple: MONDAY something voryitdese between them. They wre no longer friomls." Kleptomanines iave many excuses for thelr irresistivle impulse to steal. Absent-mind- edness 18 the most common excuse of the kieptomaniac. 1The tone of horror with which sho can ulate, *‘Good heavens! Were those hamtkerchiefs in my muffi” would do credit to the averago actross. One of the strongest excuses eve: given by an amateurs shoobiftor was offered in a Sixteenth streot storo not many weeks ago. A# certain young woman, whose identity was subsequently learned, made large purehases in a Faroam stroet store and ordared the goods charged to another well known lady. Tho latter donied having given the orders and the voung luoy was about to get into police court. She made good the purchase and explained that she was a victim of hypnotism; that when She mot & certain man, whose name she did not know ba had but to look ut her and straightw®y sho was compelled to steal. She was complétely in bis power. Ho had mos- merized he The shrovdness of these well-to-do pilfer- ers is shown 1n the fact that they nover give poverty as an_excvse for stealing. If they did 80 they would be given up to the polica atonce. Being fashionable kleptomaniacs, they ran no greater risk than that of having to pay for the goods which they have stalen. i ARBOR DAY EXERCISES.
