STAMPS OATHS AS RUBBISH Oity Olork Elbeurn Refuses te Aeospt Depuments from Qorden. SPECIAL GUARDS EJECTED BY POLICE Lawyer Eller Endeavors to Make Sure /That Proferred Ontha Are Not signed to Wante Basket During Night. Another effort was made late Friday afternoon by Judge Gordon and his attor- mey, J. W. Eller, to corral the police court bench, but the move was promptly checks mated, and the coveted seat seems as far out of bis reach now us at any time during the last elghteen daye. At b o'clock Attorney Eller entered City Clérk Elbourn's office with four typewritten document, which he asked to have filed a8 parts of Judge Gordon's four officlal bonds already in the city archives. The documents wore coustitutional oaths, duly slgned, witnessed and attested, each pre- ceded by an explanation to the effect that he (Gordon) had- inadvertently taken the wrong onth, and that he wanted now to make good the oversight, These Attorney Eller’ spread out tipon the clerk’s counter and, calling Mr. Elbourn's attention to them, asked that they be made matter of public record. Clerk Elbourn declined to receive them. “Your client, Judge Gordon, I not an off- cer of this city,”” he said, “‘and so there is no_reason why he should file an oath ot office. These papers are only so much rub- bish, and if they are left here they will be treated as waste paper. 1 shall not be re- sponsible for them." The four oaths of office, with their at- tached explanations, are still spread out on tho clerk’s desk. Put Out by the Police, Until midnight last night five men, two of them Judge Gordon's sons, guarded the entrances of Clerk Elbourn's office, but at that hour two policemen entered the city hall and put, them out. They had to be ejected by, torce, as they declined to obey the officers’ orders to leave the building. In explaining the necessity for the guards Attorney Eller sald: “Clerk Elbourn #ald he would not be responsible for the locuments and hinted that it they were left there they might flad. their way into the wasto basket. Now, i that ls to be thetr fate, we want to know by what agency they fncur it. We don't want to put the city elerk or the employes of his office in a posi- tion to contend that they were lost through @ccldent, or through the carelessness of some outsider pushing them upon the floor, 80 the guards were- instructed to notify everyone who by any chance entered that office during the night or early morning as to the true state of affairs, so they could be careful not to molest those papers.” The rald by the police at midnight, how- ever, frustrated this plan, and the four precious doouments lay unguarded from that hour until the office opened for busi- ness this morning. Attorney Eller says he will mandamus the clerk to file them some time today. ‘This action of Gordon and Eller was made necessary by the discovery January 18 that Judge Gordon"had signed the statutory In- stead of the constitutional oath, which, it is ssperted, invalidated his claim to the office of police judge. ANOTHER SUIT BY GORDON Asks Damages from City Offic Bondsnjey for Walne Im- As an echo of the stirring acenes at- tending the ascendency of Judge Berka to the police court bench January 7, during which Judge Gordon was forcibly ejected from the room by an officer, the deposed magistrate {s now preparing for revenge. Bome time today his counsel, J. W, Eller, will file sult agalnst Mayor Moores, J. J. Ponahue, chief of police, Michael Whelan, pergeant of police, and at least one mem- ber of the city council yet to be determined, In which he will seek legal redress from their bondsmen for the alleged false im- prisoament of Judge Gordon. ‘It isn't mecessary, in making a valld charge of false Imprisonment, that the in- red pereon should have been actually be- nd the bars,” sald Attorney Eller. “‘Just the moment a man is deprived of his liberty be 18 a prisoner, and Judge Gordon was Geprivad of his liberty when an officer took bim by the shoulder and pushed him out of the courtroom.’ MR BRANDEIS IN NEW YORK Weat Was Never Better Than Now.

The dreamer, however, is fitst of all. The poet is a dreamer and after him comes the sclentist and the ones who derive good from the dreamer.'’ Civilization he defined as trylng to get near the dreams of the world. The speaker stated thai Columbus was a_dreamer, Wash- ington, Lincoln, Henry George were dream- ers. People laughed when Marconi thought of wireless telegraphy. Whether in sci- ence or religlon dreams come first. Jesus was a dreamer, and the people of toddy are realizing these dreams. The speaker stated that of all people the Jews were first as dreamers—"they live on dreams, feed on dreams and are trylng to realize dreams. Mosea nursed a dream for forty years.' In speaking of Zangwill's “Dreamers of the Ghetto,” Dr. Simon sald: “Men of marvelous bralns came out of these ghet- tos. But doubtless the greatest dreamer of them all is Zangwill himself."” In speaking of the Zion movement the speaker sald: “I may say the Zion move- ment Is impractical and a dream. It is a beautiful dream, and the only dream for centuries that has brought together mil- lons of Jews under one family. Whatever we say against {t, it has done much for us in seeing visions, and om our dreams depends the future of the Jew." A beautiful song service preceded the lecture. Amusements At the Boyd— For the third time within a Illllu more than a year “'Way Down B fered at the Boyd theater Fi the largest audiente of the week. Severul changes have been made in the cast #ince the piece was last seen here. Almost all of them being for the better. Last night's audience seemed to find plenty to applaud, much to laugh at and a little to weep ower. The scenle effects are good and well car- rled out, even to minute detalls. The en gagement continues this afternoon, closing with tonight's performance. CHILDREN HURT IN COLLISION Flying Sled Runs Inte Trolley Car with Disastrous Results to Consters, As a result of a collision between a sled and a motor car at 4 o'tlock yesterday afternoon, at Sixth and Plerce streets, Harry Peterson rec!lde a broken leg, Otto Frederick a sprained’ and badly cut hip, Elsle Lomatch a badly cut nose and face and Bertle Wade a cut on the head. Altred Loebers and Willle Frederick, the other oc- cupants of the sled, were uninjured. The injured children reside in the neighborhood of the accident and were taken to their hom nd attended by Drs. 8. H. SmMh and City Physician Coffman. None is over 16 yoars of age. Since the snow the children of this neigh- borhood have been spending théir time in coasting on “travelers’” from Hickory street down Sixth to Plerce. At Sixth and Plerce streets the Harney street car line ends and the company has in a Y on which the cars turn and stand until time for them to begin thelr return trip to town. At the time of the accident the car had just stopped after making the turn on the Y. The coasters were unable to turn the ‘““traveler,”” which was golng at terrific speed, and dashed into the rear end of the car. Sled and children all went over In a heap. Residents of the neighborhood rushed to the assistance of the conductor and motorman of the car, and the little folks were carried into nearby houses and cared for until the arrival of the police ambu- lance and Drs. Coffman and Smith, when they were removed to their.homes. Peterson’s right leg was broken in two places below the knee, about four inches apart, and otherwise bruised. He resides at 808 South Elghth street with his parents and was resting well last night. Otto Frederick recelved a severe sprain of the right hip and was cut on the leg. He was taken to his home, 1019 Leavenworth, in the police ambulance. The two girls were not so badly ln!urefl Bessie Wade receiving several cuts on tho face and a cut across the nose, and Elsie Lomatch a gash of several Inches on the head. DAIRYMEN FIGHT THE CITY They Decide to Test Lemality of Ordl Members of the Omaha Dairy assoclation have decided to ignore the city ordinance requiring each cperator of a dalry wagon to pay an annual license fee of $10. Notices that the license fee must be pald without further delay have been ignored and the dairymen stand ready to resist payment in the courts, The fallure of the council to pass ordi- nances which would drive small hand dafr- les out of existence provoked the fight the dalrymen who have wagons are making. All told there are about 140 Omaha milk dealers who deliver thelr products from wagons. The hand dairles, ‘conducted by people who have only a few cows, have proved to be hard competition for the larger dealers and the Omaha Dairy assoclation attempted to stamp out these small datries by proposing an ordinance compelling every milk dealer to pay an annual license fee of $10, the sum which the city ordinance fixes as the license fee of wagon dairies. Vigorcus protests against such an ordi- nance were filed by persons who keep only a few cow emall dalries are required to pay $1 a year tor each'cow.

Skire of Pipes Leads off Program | READY TO BUILD A MARKET Devoted to Praise of Dear Poet ot Plain Lengue Offers to Put Up Dullding i People. Its Own Expense — Plans for G- Scotch music, Scotish costumes and the wildwood notes of the voices of Scotch matrons, lassies and men filled Creighton hall last night when Clan Gordon of the Order of Scottish Clans met ' to celebrate the 143d anniversary of the birth of Robert Burns. The audience was large. Clan Gordon has about 150 members and with their friends at least 6500 people were present, one of the largest crowds ever assembled in Omaha on such an occaslon. The program opened with an introduction by the pipes, the pipers being J. C. Buchanan, piper of the clan, apd George McDougall. Following this was an overture by the orchestra, in which many of the popular melodies of Auld Scotla were introduced. On behalt of the clan James Cameron, the chief, made a brief address of welcome and A. Jamieson then sang “We Are a’ Scottish Here." This called for an encore and the last verse of the same song was repeated The next number was one of the best of the evening, Mrs. 8. D, Lees singing “Jes- ste’s Dream.”” There are few voices any- where better fitted for Scotch songs than that of Mrs. Lees, and with her voice she combines a full understanding ot the dla- lect and an appreciation of the force of the sentiment. In responso to an encore she showed that she not only understood the pathos, but well knew the humor, the song “I'm Glad Ma Hairt's Ma Ain” being a fine example of the humorous in Scotch dia- lect songs. Address by Vice Co A. A. Covalt then rendered a cornet solo and this was followed by the principal ad- dress of the evening, “Memory of Burns, by M. A. Hall, British vice consul at Omaha. The memory of Burns, in the mind of the speaker, called up the gifted plow- man, born to poverty, suffering from its pangs all his lite, but giving to the world a wealth of sentiment which nothing could replace. Burns, sald the speaker, pre- served the characteristics of the people of Scotland In a manner not equaled by the representative of any other race; he crys- talized its language and placed its tradl- tions, its legends and its superstitions in form which will preserve them forever. No other poet ever touched the commonplace and lifted it into the sublime as has the singer of Ayr. Following the address came the next mu- sical hit of the evening, when Mrs. H. W. Fitt sang ““Jessle, the Flower of Dumblane.” She divided honors of handling the words to thelr best effect with Mrs. Lees and her power of expression was something well worth the visit to the concert. In response to an encore she sang ‘‘Comin’ Through the Rye.” . “The Courtin’ of T'Nowhead's Bell” was a neat bit of Scottish recitation, which was admirably handled by Miss Mary Wal- Ince. As a comic singer Sam Morris brought down the house, and was called updn for a second appearance before the audience. Dancing Wins Appl In dancing the Highland fling Miss Jeanie Falconer showed skill which only ex- celled when, in response to calls, she, with George McDougall, danced the sword dance to the music of the pipes, This dance brought the enthusiasm of the audience to its height. Miss Blanch Sorenson sang ‘“Banks o Loch Lomond” in a manner highly pleasing and was called upon for a second song. A quartet consisting of Mts. Fitt, Mrs. Lees and Mr, Jamieson and Mr. Morrison, sang “‘Duncan Gray” and “Such a Wife as Willie Had" as only Scotch people can sing Scotch songs. Mrs. A. D. Edwards sang “Angus Mc- Gregor'' excellently, but when, in response to an encore, she sang an English song, her voice was heard to much better effect. “The Land We Left and This" gave J. L. Kennedy an opportunity to eulogize the Anglo-S8axon race and draw a parallel be- tween the work of Great Britain in South Africa and the United States in the Phil- ippines, saying that the race was destined to rule the world, bringing freedom and liberty to the oppressed. Mre. George Shields, in the character of an Irish emi- grant, brought down the house. Then Mrs. Donald McQuiston sang a Gaellc song in &« manner highly pleasing to the audience and for its benefit she sang the Englwsh translation. Preceding the last song, “A Man's a Man for a' That,” by Mr. Dempster, James Lindsay, the secretary, explained the ob- ject and character of the Order of Scot- tish Clans, Following the program the hall was cleared for dancing, which was continued until an early hour. The persons in charge of the anniversary celebration this year were: Reception Committee—Thomas Meldrum, Thomas Falconer, John Trench, W. R. Adams, Floor Committee—Willlam Hampton, P. T. Anderson, J. C. Taylor, Thomas Fal- coner, jr., Thomas Meldrum, jr. Arrangement Committee — Clansmen ot amusement committee.

According to the re- port, Mr. Caulfield dropped dead yesterday morning {n the Illinols Central depot while waiting for a train. His body was removed from the depot to the morgue. Mr. ‘Caulfield was for twenty years the proprietor of a book store in -this city, which four years ago he dlsposed of to the Megeath ationery company.

Plans for the building have been prepared and the members of the league stand ready to build the atructure and recoive their pay for the bullding in rentals collected from the stalls. The Taxpayers' league consists o Alfred Millard, C. F. Manderson, Harry T. MeCormick, Joseph Goldsmith, L. Morse, Cady Lumber company and other persons who have property in the vicinity of the proposed site in Capitol ave- nue between Twelfth and Fourteenth streets. Many wholesalers who oppose the market site location used for the last few years are also active in their support of the proposition made by the Taxpayers' league, Under the direction of the league plans and specifications for the proposed building were drawn by W.

NOW COMES PRUNING TIME Retrenekment ’ro‘um on at Cennty Com- | missioners’ Mesting Today. CONNOLLY AND HOFELDT MAY BACK DOWN O'Keefr, romises Vote the Schedule Presented by Ostrom Which Can Go Through with Harte's Vote, to tor When it comes time this morning to make good the unanimous promise of the Board of County Commissioners that there shall be retrenchment expenses 1t will devolve upon Richard O'Keeffe, Henry E. Ostrom and A. C. Harte to push the matter through The pruning knife that James P. Con- nelly brandished over his head so terribly and relontlessly a week ago has been re- turned to its scabbard, untainted by one drop of blood, and Peter Hofeldt, another commissioner of democratic faith and ex- treme caution, who had been announced in 36-point Gothic as “standing pat for re- trenchment,” has been Ciscovered to have no pruning blade at all, but just a lady's penknife with which he might be willing to whittle off the salary ol u janitor or two, but nothing more. In committee of the whole the board members voted on the schedule of em- ployes presented by Ostrom and amended to festore a farmer at the county farm and exchange a cost clerk for a stenogra- pher in the district court clerk’s office, and on this revised list, which means to the county & saving of about $12,000 per year, Connolly and Hofeldt voted nay. O'Keefle Stands a building of brick amd fron, forty-elght teet wide and In two sections, each of which is 264 feet long. Each section of the bulld- ing has doors at the ends aud doors in the center of the sides. A tower stands in the center of each part of the building. The market house is to be only one story in helght, but will be quite high, o that the ventilation may be good. The sides of the building will be provided with large windows only a few inches apart. Above these large windows will be seml-circular windows extending almost ta the roof. Through the center of the building there 1s to be a double row of stalls elght feet wide, and there will be a row of similar stalls along each side wall, Wide alsles will separate these rows. At intervals of twenty-four feet there are to bo passage- ways through the center stalls connecting the two main aisles. Cost About Forty Thousand. It s estimated by the league that such a market house as is shown in its plans will cost between $35,000 and §40,000. No figures have been prepared to show what the in- come from such a building would be, but the members of the league express the opinion that the rentals from such a build- ing for a limited number of years would meet the cost and glve the city a market without cost. Capitol ¢venue {8 120 feet wide. At pres- ent the sidewalks along the avenue are twenty feet wide. It is suggested that these could well be narrowed to ten feet. Granting that a market house forty-elght feet wide. is erected, this change in the width of the walks would leave a driveway twenty-six feet wide on each side of the house. Councllman C. O. Lobeck examined the plans prepared under the direction of the lcague and expressed his approval.. He sald that he belleved such market - house would be equal to any hesaw-during his recent visit to eastern eftfes. The Taxpayers’ league 'has secured a waiver of damage from neafly all the ow: ers of property along the séction of Capitol avenue where it desires to have the market house located.

Commissioner O'Keeffe opined that his democratic contemporaries might be satis- fled with their own explanations of their change of front, but he wasn't, and he voted with the republican members for the first real measuro of retrenchment that the present board is able to undertake. Last night he said that he still belleves as he did when he voted in committee and that he would stick by the scheduls in the meeting this morning, which seeme to make certain its adoption. County Clerk Miller encountered some more unpleasantness yesterday, when the committee of two, which he had selected to “Investigate the real nceds of the office,” and tell the commissioners in two hours time more than they had been able to dis- cover in several years, received from that committee a polite refusal to serve. Al- fred Millard and Fred H. Davis had pre- viously turned down his request, and yes- terday it was John 8. Knox and S. A. Me- Whorter, upon whom devolved the same unpleasant duty. They were humane about it, but they let him know that his fight for more clerks and more salary than the board wished to allow was really no affair ot thelrs, as they are not and have no desire to be in politics—at least not in Mr. Mil- ler's politics. Talk About Mi| Time. From the room next to Miller's there has also commenced to come some plainly audible suggestions that the work of his force would be lightened if the clerk him- self would take off his hat and stay awhile every day or two. Even the extremely discreet Hofeldt remarked yesterday, quite emphatically, that he didn't know how much longer it would take Mr. Miller to straighten up his private business affairs preparatory to giving his full time to the office for which he Is now drawing full pay. . Charles Unitt yesterday !ndicated his de- termination to carry to the higher courts his contest for the offica Miller holds, by filing a transcript of the county court pro- ceedings with the clerk of the district court, but the incumbent has quite lost sight of that in his larger and more immediate per- lexities, DOUGLAS HAS MORE TROUBLE Tries to Go Swimming in Hotel Lobby and Lands In City Jall, J. F. Douglas, the insane man who cre- ated a sensation some months ago by jump- ing through the second-story window of his Cass street home, caused another furor of excitement by endeavoring to undress and go swimming in the lobby of the Iler Grand hotel. The man had most of his clothes oft be- fore his disrobing was interrupted. He was taken to jail and yesterday was dis- charged. Ho immediately began another uproar about $57 which he said the police bad taken from him and failed to return. A search revealed the money pinned in an envelopo fuside his clothing. Douglas aow lives at 710 South Seven- teenth street. At the time of the Cass street episode he ran five blocks after he bad struck the ground before the police could overtake him.

Sailer, Prosident German Relief Association, Los Angeles, Cal Owing to modern methods of living, not one woman in a thousand ape proaches this perfectly natural change without experiencing a train of very annoying and sometimes painful symptoms, Those dreadful hot flashes, sending the blood surging to the heart until it seems ready to burst, and the faint feeling that follows, sometimes with chills, ns if the heart were going to stop for good, are only a few of the symptoms of a dangerous nervous troubl The nerves are crying out for assistance.

MRS. E. SAILER. “Dear Mrs. Pingnasm:— When I passed throngh what is kmown as ‘change of life,” I had two years’ suffering, — suc den heat, and as quick chills would pass over me; my appetite was variable and I never could tell for a day at a time how I would feel the next day. Five bottles of Lydia E.

You have my hearty endorse- ment, for you have proven yourself a true friend to suffering women.” —Mns, E. SAILER, 7368 Hill St., Los Angeles, Cal. When one stops to think about the good Mrs. Sailer derived from Mrs, Pinkham's advice and medicine, it seems almost beyond belief yet it is all true as stated in her letter published above at her own request. No other medicine in the world has received such widespread and unqualified endorsement. Refuse all substitutes. As a matter of positive fact Mrs. Pinkham has on file thousands of letters from women who have bpen safely carried through that danger period “Change of Life.” Mrs, Sailer's cure is not an unusual one for Mrs. Pink- ham'’s medicine to accomplish. No other person can give such helping advice to women who are sick as can Mrs. Pinkham, for none have had such a great experience —her address is Lynn, Mass., and her advice free—if you are sick write her—you are foolish if you don’t. $5000 REWARD. — Wo have deposited with the National City Bank of Lynn, $5000, which will be paid to any berton who can find that the above mumunl.f lettor i not genuine, or was publ before obtalning tho writer's wpecial por- mission, Lydia E.
