LOUIS, Jan. 2.-—The finding of the dead body of Rebecea Land in the Me- Lean builling yesterday, the supposed cause of death being cancer, developed today Into a sensation of a tharacter similar to the Denver strangling case. Though the room in which the woman was found showed no evidence of a struggle, today's discoveries indicate murder. An autopsy upon the body was completed this after- noon, and as a result it was announced that’ the woman was strangled, the grip of the murderer being so great 'in its vio- lence that her neck was fractured in two laces, So far no clew to the murderer as been found - police are search ing for a ted as her part in an_empl ney which she c ducted in the office where she was found dead.

All westbound trains from Chicago and the east were several hours late yesterday morning asa result of the blizzard in"Iowa and Illinois yesterday and last night. No. 5, on the Rock Island, was three hours late, while No. 6, from the west, was reported on time. The Milwaukee people also reported their morn- ing train between four and five hours late, the Northwestern making a similar report. The Burlington, which is least affected by the storm got in_at 11:30, an hour and forty min- utes late, Trains from the west were gen- erally on time, although the Southern Pa- cific is experiencing great trouble in making its connections, in some cases trains being as much as twelve hours behind card time. The dificulty on the Iowa lines is encount- ered west of Tama City, where a great deal of snow fell, in some sections the fall being as much as fifteen inches. This, with the high winds, makes running exceedingly aiffi- cult., OfY for the St of War. Judge John M. Thurston, attorney for the Union Pacific receivers, Mrs. Thurston, Gen- cral John C.

Munroe, leave to- day for Portland to be present at the hearing, before Judge Gilbert, on the appli- cation of the American Loan and Trust com- pany for a separate receiver for the Odgen Short Line and Utah Northern, Judge Thurston said he would represent the recelvers of the Unfon Pacific in the ap- plication, and would not take a very active part in the proceedings, except to urge the retention of the present receivers. Judge Cowin will look after the interests of the government, while Mr. Pierce will probably make the main argument why the road should not have a separate r r.

IT WAS THEIR FEET, The Mascot Has at Last Been Found that Draws Trade to 1515-17 Douglas St For many moons there has been an ever Increasing desire to find out just why it is that people will patronize Wilcox & Draper’'s shoe store to such an extent that It some- times becomes alarming. It's thelr feet. The samples of their shoe | wearers as shown in The Bee the past week | and on the 16th page of today's issue, give the snap away. DId you ever see such a beautiful pair of feet? Such elegant pink And look at those big toes. Aln't they “purty?’ And how their feet have grown. Just like their sales. It's the biggest thing in the way of a shoe sale that ever happened In this town, and it will continue this week with renewed vigor, although it will not be necessary to make any further dieplay of their feet to accomplish their purpose of selling $25,000 worth of Frank Wilcox Co.'s shoes before March 1. ITS RESOURCES EXHAUSTED. Assoclated Charities Without Means to Ce Tta Benotactions. ated Charities not only money and supplies, but is nearly $1,000 debt and is in reality much poorer than many of its applicants for relief. While the attention of the charitable public has been attracted to drouth sufferers by people whom citizens regard as being inter- ested largely for advertising purposes, there is need for immediate charity work right here in Omaha. That is the drift of local opinfon on_the streets, and the news that the only large relief organization, out- side of the county, is unable to supply the demands of the destitute creates great sym- pathy. It was discuss The is out ot in 1 at the Commercial club informally by 1 men of charitable im- pulses and it was generally conceded that the time for prompt action had arrived. Investigation revealed that the citizen lief committee which was in existenc year had been abandoned; Dr. Duryea, the boor man's friend, is absent from the eity seeking to recuperate his shattered health the Congregational Ladies Aid society has no supply room this year: Rescue hall, which sheltered so = many homeless and hungry men, is a memory of the past In fact, the one hand between the city's poor and starvation en frappe is the county commissioners. With an overwhelming demand, in conse- quence thereof, the county is compelied be economical in giving out food and fuel. le result is that many people, poor, but proud, feel sensitive over refusal to comply with their full pand for their families and many of victims of destitution are thus suffering in silence, while the ma- Jority of the big-hearted citizens of Omaha who are well fed and live in well heated homes are in ignorance of the suffering of the poor. There are numerous cases of destitution in Omaha, according to the statement of Mr. enery of the Assoclated Charities. Both es, many in rags, apply for food and fuel, and beg piteously for work to prove that they are applicants worthy of assist- ance. Sccretary Laughland of the Associated Charities ‘appealed to Guy C. Barton and others yesterday and plainly told them that he was confronted with a condition and not a theory that something should be donme at once to relieve destitution in Omaha on a dopted in other citie namely, to maintain its leading relicf bureau, the ociated Charities. The various church societies are doing con- siderable service, but their funds are al- most_exhausted. In the meantime, unless something is done, and some of the wealthy persons come to the relief of the Associated Charities, the destitute will be absolutely at the mercy of the county. While “the Associated Charities has not locked its doors and gone out of business it has practically been incapacitated from making disbursements for several days on account of funds being exhausted. ~ Sup- plies and funds will be thankfully received at the old stand and Secretary Laughland has great confidence in the benevolent spirit of Omaha people to properly maintain this institution for the poor. The publication of the distress of the Assoclated Charaties in yesterday's edition of The Bee attracted much attention and the result will doubtless be that a meeting will be called witlin a few days to discuss plans for relief, if individual subscriptions and donations fail to supply the demand for charity. Pe- last to Are Glad They Have Howard. J. H. Howard, one of the men accused of robbing a traveling man of a diamond pin while on a train going into Council Bluffs, was arrested by Detectives Savage and Demp- sey Friday night, It is thought that this is one of the parties who committed a burglary in Des Moines several weeks ago. Friday afternoon the police received word that How- ard and his pal, Fred Crafton, were on their way to this city from the Biuffs. The offi- 5 who went out missed the men, but that night Howard was found in company with some other jail birds and the officers gath- ercd him in for safe keeping. Crafton has not been apprehended, but it is likely that he will make himself scarce hereabouts in the future, Crafton is the man who, it is alleged, Killed Mabel Swartz, the adopted daughter of the ex-mayor of Sioux City, in a Des Moines bagnio a couple of years ago. He was sentenced to seventeen years in_the penitentiary, but through the untiring efforts of his faithful wife he secured a new trial and was sentenced to eighteen months, after pleading guilty to manslaughter. He man- aged to get this sentence shortened consider- ably and since then he has been roaming around in the southwest L Held on Suspiclon, A. Munson is being held at the city Jail on suspicion of being one of the men who tried to blow open the safe in Mohle's pawn- shop last Sunday night. Munson was ar- rested several days ago as a vagrant and was glven a suspended sentence of ten days. He promised to get out of town, but the next night the attempt to break open this safe occurred, and the police gathered him in The would-be burglars left a hammer in the pawnshop and it has since been identified by the wagon maker at the corner of Nineteent and Plerce streets as being one stolen fro his shop between Saturday night and Monday morning. He has also identificd Munson the man who came to his shop on last Satur- day and tried to purchase hammers and drills, saying that he had a job which he wanted to do. The wagon maker refused to sell the tools and the next night they were stolen. 1f the safe blowing job cannot be made to stick against Munson he will be charged with the burglary of the wagon shop. Munson's pal, another suspicious character, has skipped. —_——— fssue a Kansas Paper.

One of the greatest ocal artists of the world today is a young American, now and for a number of years fn Parls, Mr. Charles Holman-Black. He is & son of Prof. J. § Black of Indianapolis, himself a vocalist and teacher of high Tank. The younger Black studied under his father until he went to New York te begin his public work Thence he went to Paris, after having made several Amerfean tours in opera, and he became the spectal pupil of the renowned baritone, M. Faure. ‘Mr. Holman-Black has lived in Paris for about ten years, and has had a phnomenal career there, and in Lon dn, in which city he has an annual season. During this period has several times visited the United ¢ for professional engagements, In a recent number of principal Parisian musfcal journal the fol- lowing noice of Mr. Holman-Black was pub. lished, together with a fine portrait “Fortunate artists are like nations have no history, and their biographies are quickly written. Charles Holman-Black is among the number. The Parisians who ap- plaud him in society or at the concerts though curfous about everything concerning artists, always fnformed of their lives and of their past—do not know anything of him except he comes from New York and that he sin| s no one sings since the never-to-be-forgotten representatives of the Ialian opera, at the Theater Ventadour. “In the atmosphere of strolling players, in the age of advertisement in which we live, it is comforting to find an artist who tries to conceal his life—happy, without doubt, with the successes that have come to him, with the renown connected with his name, but, above all, proud that it is all due to himself and o his talent. Already celebrated for a newcomer, Charles Holman- Dlack has made for himself in Paris a po- sition that is his own and is much envied A singer who has been applauded in New York and in London, Holman-Black has wished to receive the consecration that Paris only can give; and his talent has ripened under the lessons of the great maestro, Faure, who predicts a_ destiny the happiest for him. Sought after by the fashionable world, feted by his compatriots, applauded by that inteligent elite which makes Paris a sort of supreme court in all that pertains to art, Holman-Black has seen all the salons opencd to him, and there is no musical fete that he is not therein rep resented. Endowned with a baritone voice of incomparable timbre, vibrating, but sup- ple in the extreme, full of seduction, this ex- sellent artist possesses more “than 1, that intelligence of art, that understanding of y, that warmth, in fact, all that Sten- When speaking of an Italian canta . whose name eseapes me, said: ‘It fs truly the soul that sings.’ " Prof. Black was the music master Mrs, Jeannette Halford Benedict of th who was an associate pupil with Mr. Cl Black during their residence in Indianapolis.

Unostentatiously the section is bringing for- ward in an historical sense at least many of the great masters, WI even to mu- siclans, are too little known except through their music, their lives and labors being almost sealed books to those who affect musical culture.

Marshall and the choir of All Saints Dr. Antonin Dvorak, who will have an article upon ‘Music in America” in the February number of Harper's Magazine, will say as to music in this country: “The white composers who wrote the Negro | g songs which dimmed Thackeray's spectacles 50 that he exclaimed: ‘Behcld, a vagabond with a corked face and a banjo sings a little song, strikes a wild note, which the whole heart thrilling with happy pity!" had a similarly sympathetic comprehension of the | deep pathos of slave life. If, as T have been informed they were, these songs were adopted by the negroes on the plantations, they thus became true megro songs. Whether the | original songs which must have inspired the composers came from Africa or originated on the plantation matters as little as whether Shakespeare invented his own plots or bor rowed them from others. The thing to re Joice over is that such lovely songs exist and are sung at the present day. I, for one am delighted by them. Just o it matters little whether the inspiration for the coming folk songs cf America is derived from the negro melodies, the songs of the creoles the red man’s chant or the plaintive ditties of the homesick German or Norwegian. Un doubtedly the germs for the best of music lie hidden among all the races that arc commingled in this great country. The music of the people is like a rare and lovely flowe growing amidst encroaching weeds. The sands pass it, while others trample it unde foot, and thus the chances are that it will perish before it is seen by one discriminat ing spirit. The fact that no one has as vet sen to make the most of it does not prove that nothing is ther Mme.

The distin- guished pianist defends himself on the ground that the sum of 10 shillings was paid at his previous concert in the same place for the same seats, and that his acceptanec of half the price would argue that his powers were failing and his reputation diminishing.
