Effort Being Made to Phillip Wagne, 3 J. Wagner, who resides at 1518 North hteenth street, went to the police station on some very fmportant business last night. He is the father of Phillip Wagner and the matter he is looking up is somewhat com- Recoy L r Land that v plicated. Mr. Wagner, when approached for a version of it, added very little light o it. near as the facts can he ascertalned the story is that last September Phillip Wagner was arrested by Sergeant Sigwart for carrying concealed “weapons. At the time of the arrest or shortly before,” young Wagner was said to have lost his mind artly and was not at all times accounta- ble for what he did, and it is this part of the matter that ha$ the most bearing on the case. When arrested the young man acted rather queer and talked somewhat incoherently, but this was supposed to be the result of the drinking he Is sald to have indulged in, and nothing further was done aboul It at'the time. He was searched by Doc Dibbern and about $1 was found on him, along with a few trinkets of a minor valie. It appears that some time previous to this the elder Wagner gave his son 160 acres of land situated in a good farming country and It was said to be very valua- ble. The son had possession of th only a short time when he was approac by ‘an agent of a land company and tiations made to purchase it. The t was made and it was sald the condition of the youns man mentally wus used to fraudulently take the land from him. price which young Wagner was said to have received was $1,000, and the company a pi to the transfer'is now trying to set up that the young man had this money on him when arrested and that he was of sound mind when the trade was consummated, and therefore responsible for his part in the transaction. It appears the son now clalms he has been swindled out of his land, and that suit s belng brought to re- cover it on the ground that he was of un- sound mind at the time of the transfer and that the amount named in it was not paid to him. Mr. Wagner was taking of police officlals who we positions when the arrest was made and hing gone through with, in order to knock out the claim of the company that the money wa possession of ng Wagner when S G he land company’s office {5 at Albion, Neb., and the suit is being brought theré Mr. Wagner would say nothing beyond that he was in the city taking depositions but the detalls of the aftair he absol y refused to divulge, RO hesapselioly Hay page. en's sales are It will pay to )uuk them up, announced on the STUDY !N THE NUDE. Painting of the Hou hibition In Omaha, Art lovers have a treat in store for them during the next two weeks in being per- mitted to view a fine example of the nude painted by a well known Frenchman of the Bouguereau school, which is now on exhi bition in the vacant store room in the Pat- terson block, Seventeenth and Farnam streets, The canvas, 9x12 feet, represents a woman reclining ¢ couch, covered with a beautiful white fur rug, the accessories of | the room being painted with consummate skill. The figure is finely modelled, with an | atmosphere that will appeal irresistibly to all lovers of the beautiful. The artist, who for personal reasons desires to remain in- cognito, hus painted his subject con amore and treats the.model with all the dignity and charm of the real art enthusi Tho ploture has been placed advantageously, with all the theatrical surroundings to bring out its finer qualities, the subject of the canvas belng “Una,” truth in life. The painting appeals to the fner senses and cannot help belng a help to the art students palnting from life, and particularly those who are sketching from the nude. While the artist has sacrificed values for a panoramic effect, the picture Is finely concelved, the element of suggestion which is so hard to subordinate belng entirely lost sight of in its dignified treatment. It s a painting worthy of inti mate knowledge on the part of all lovers of the beautiful. ———— Hayden's sales are announced on the 3rd page. It will pay to look them up. Taking Evldence.

Famous cafes undoubtedly have their fate, Joseph like books. The Grand Vefour, in the Palals Royal—the rendezvous of the wits and dandies of former days—has been of- fered for sale a second time and has found no purchaser, says the Paris correspondent of the London Telegraph. The place cost its last owner, Mme. Herbomez, £40,000, and is mow offered_at 400, the rent, however, amounting to 50,000 francs, a price which no one seems inclined to give, as the Palais Royal is no longer a center of attrac Vefour was not the founder of the estab- lishment, which was started in 1787, and was called the Cafe de Chartres, in honor of the eldest son of the duke of Orleans, who was afterwards to become the citizen King, Louis Phillippe. It was patronized by the petits maitres, the Incroyables, the lions and other sparks of those days, and was a fayor- ite tavern during the directory, the con- sulate, the empire, the restoration and th July monarchy.

China is perhaps the last place in the world where one would expect to find dudes and mashers, but it appears that in Shanghal the gilded youth among the celestials have adopted the masher costume.

They also ride in forelgn carriages, men and women together, and some of them live In forelgn houses In grand style.

Reportor Exhibits Tils Superla- tive Nerv Another man was held up on that same bridge some years ago, and under circum- stances which makes the incident worth pre- serving, He was a Chieago newspaper man, A Chicago says the Herald, then in the enjoyment of a good salary and a beautiful thirst, now at the head of a prosperous paper in the northwest. But he did like an evening with his friends, and ho did like a warm drink, and he didn't care If the last potation took the last dime, for the world was full of cheer and there was always a tomorrow. Good . & kood shave, a warm breakfas, and as fair after a wild night as after a tame one. So he left the meeting one night practi- cally penniless and started to walk home It was past midnight, but in those days the midnight closing ordinance was looked upon simply as a jest. He went, mechanically, Into three or four saloons, fumbled for the price, then looked apologetically across the bar at an attentive keeper, turned and walked out. On Clark street bridge he was stopped by a footpad who told him to give up his money Now, you're fooling says the journalist. “I'm broke.’ Don't give me no stiff,” says the robber. “Shell out, there, and sheli out blank quick.” Another robber appeared at the ymime, just as the journalist turned to run. So he stopped, leaned against the rail of the bridge, not a whit frightened and tried to argue with his captors. “I tell you I'm broke,” he protested. “I haven't got a dime.” time your away,” like Pantaloon “Show up. Go down Into your pockets, Hurry up.” Down went one hand after another, and up came successively one penny after an- other, till three lay in his extended palm He went on fishing for a moment longer. A belated but s citizen approached, came alongside, passed and went away into the night. He glanced at the three figures there on the bridge, but never suspected two were robbers and ore was robbed, The journalist, a smile of triumph on his face, held the three cents toward the nearest robber and remarked: “There, I told you so.” Is that all you got Yen Why, you pauper, that isn't enough to buy a drink. “Of course not. I would have it “Why—do you w If it was, do you suppose nt a drink?"” “You bet I do. Well, come on, and we'll buy you a drink.” “Go on.” So they three tramped down the incline and entered the first saloon—the last one which the journallst had mechanically en- tered and despondently left. They lined up three abeast at the bar, they poured out a big horn apiece, they drank, they chatted, they got acquainted, they each found many virtues In the others. The journalist told them a story. He sang them a bit of a song. He cracked a particularly felicitous joke at the expense of the barkeeper. He struck the chief robber for half a dollar, bought one round, gave them good-bye at the door and tripped in safety across the bridge. R SLEEP A WASTE OF TIME. Edison Thinks M to Do Wit Dr. J. A. Hornsby, assistant chief of elec- tricity at the World's fair, who has just re- turned from a visit to Edison's laboratory, says the great electrician has evolved a new theory of his cwn on the subject of sleep. “We were In the Lewellyn Park laboratory at Orange, N. J.” he sald to the Chicago Record man, “when some one spoke of Mr dison's marvelous powers of endurance. 1 asked him if he had ever found anybody who could keep up with him day in and day out without breaking down. Mr. Edison smiled a little and said he had just two men with him in the establishment who kept up the galt day and night for years and seemed to be as good as ever physically. Then he an- Wizard nounced his bellef that ultimately there would be no such thing as long sleeping hours for any but invalids. “Why,’ he said, turning to me, ‘when the phonograph had to be finished in a certain numbers of hours to London on time I worked seventy-two hours without a minute of sleep, and so did all the men with me except one or two un- important_assistants, whose places could be filled_easily. “The truth is that this habit of sleeping originated when there was no such thing a good artificial light. People could not they had no way of amusing them- s at night, so when darkness came there was nothing left for them to do but lie down and lose themselves in oblivion. Now that we have the electric light and other means of illumination, the world is slecping less and less all the time. By and by, gradually, of course, but surely, the time will come when an hour or two of rest will be enough. Then people will find that they have been wasting valuable time. Tt is all right for a man to change his work or seek some sort of diversion, but that is very easy to do by changing work and varying the bject of study.” “This theory,” continued Mr. Hornsby, “is discussed considerably among the young men who know Mr. Edison’s habits from personal associatian with him in his laboratory. Mr. Tate, his private secretary, id it was no wonder ‘the old man' thought as he did about rest. ‘He did work seventy-two hours straight,’ explained Mr. Tate, ‘but then he went to ep and :d there for sixty- eight hours without stopping, bt when he waked up long enough to eat. He went for years, working hard all the time, with scarcely any rest at all; but he could drop down anywhere for an hour or for ten minutes and come up again as fresh as it he had been on a month's vacation. —— A MAN OF TIRON NERVE. How Ge lehed o Brag- gart in the Stormy Days of Fra The thistle does not sting if it be firmly grasped, The ghost runs away when one walks straight up to it. When Louls > leon was president of the F the commander at Lyons was Gener lane, an wld soldier whose stern rul pt in check the red republicans of that disorderly . 1t was a time when courage on the part of the people might have spared the French nation from the long humiliation of the se ond empire, Unfortunately for them, the nerve was enlisted ron the side of the man who afterward became emperor, and the re- publicans could hoast much, but do little. One of the most radical and boisterous of the republicans of Lyons was a barber, who openly boasted that he only waited for the opportunity of ridding the city of its stern commander. The general heard of the threat, and one afternoon ordered his coach- man to drive to the barber’s shop. Leaving his carriage, the general, unattende en- tered the shop, took a seat in a vacant ch and desired the barber to shave him. The astonished braggart performed the operation as well as his nervousness would permit. When he had finished, the general, while paying him, quietly said: Monsieur, since you have not availed yourself of the opportunity to cut my throat, which I have given you, would it not be well Tor you to refrain trom uttering threats that you have not the courage to carry out?" hest Honor-s Worlds Fair, DRPRICE'S Baking Powder.

WHY COULD THIS BE SO? 1t Is Clearly Explained, and the Fearoul Danger that Is Hanging Ovor Othes splo Fully Revealod, “Thousands of men and women in N '\'n)k and throughout the land | although they have plenty of | the best of food!" These startling words were recently ut tered by a prominent physician, whose resi denee, situated In one of best parts of Fifth avenue, is daily thronged with fash able patients. He made the above remark able statement to a reporter in the course of an interview “I say,” he continued, “that they are starving to death—slowly, but surely. I the pity of it Is that fow of them realize it Most of them ecat plenty of food, often live in luxury, but still they remain thin_and emaciated, appear to be consumptive. Why 18 it, do you ask? It is simply because the food they cat does them no good. Their systems do not assimllate it, or extract the proper amount of nourishment from i wonder they grow we thin and puny. In plain Englis starving to death exactly as if they we at up a dungeon and given only half the amount of food they need. Nine out of every ten ople you meet are suffering from the most terrible disease of modern times; that is, indigestion and the inability to assimilatc the food which is eaten. I know fnent man who died recently from just this cause.’ “What do you advise such people to do doctor?” the reporter asked “I will tell you what tiey ought to do and what they ought not to do. What poople need {s a flesh-former. Scientific inve gators have proved that a pure starch fool is the only flesh-former which builds up the system and is instantly assimilated by weakened digestive organs. Taking advan tage of this fact one of the greatest scien tists the world has ever known devoted a lifetime to experiment and research, He at last obtained a true flesh-forming food the essence of nourishment, a pure starch food. It is known as Paskola “This wonderful prepar Ing the meals just as it is put up. Its im- mediate effect is to enter the system, di rectly assimilate and enable the food that is eaten to be likewise digested. The re- sult is the extraction of every particle of nourishment from the food eaten, added to that imparted by Paskola. Unlike the liver ofl emulsions and other rancid, fatty mixtures it can be enjoyed by people wlho have the weakest stomachs.’ “You don’t approve of fats, then, doctor By no means. Their use for gaining flesh and strength They give neither strength, flesh nor warmth. Millions of thin, pale, consump- tive persons remember the delusive hopes of recovery they were led to indulge in by the advertisements of these fat and oll com- pounds or emulsions, and how their hopes faded into bitter disappointment. How any one expect to get well and strong taking nauseating, sickening doses of and fats? “I will tell you another remarkable thing is a relic of barbarism. by olls about Pascoln,” remarked the physician “It is artificially digested so that it is ab- sorbed at once. It requires no digesting when it enters the stomach. TIn this way ni Paskola imparts strength to the weak, makes thin, fragile persons plump and bust. There never has been anything like it for promptly relieving exhaustion and tired feelings. People who take vla are advised to weigh themselves when they commence taking it nd observe the won derful effect produced after a short timie. They will find their weight has greatly in- creased aud their general health vastly im- proved. The progress of science is indeed wonderful, and in no way have I been so impressed with this fact as by this great discovery, Paskola, which is ainly th grandest thing for w thin, debilitated people that was ever brought out. 1 urge every one who needs more healthy flesh, more sound vigor and strength, to try Pas kola, and they will be astonished and grati- fled at its wonderful effect upon them.
