AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA| President Ousningham of Rural Delivery Arsociaticn Busy in Office, MAY GO TO WASHINGTON LATER IN YEAR Says Number of Bi in ¢ but 1 Are Intro wrews, Assocl Its Own F. H. Cunningham, president of the Rural Free Dellvery Carriers’ assoclation, sald yesterday afternoon that he was rapidly getting his office in working order and that his correspondence was increasing dafly, In speaking of the legislation now before congress. President Cunningham stated that five bills had aiready been in- troduced by congressmen from different states for an increase in the pay of the rural carriers. “This movement seems to be general," | said Mr. Cunningham, “and we do not ex- pect any opposition to our request for more pay. It is the Intention of the assoctation to present its own bill to congress when the regular session convencs. 14 the mean- time 1 have written Senator M. ilard asking him to forward to me a copy of the bills already presented.” In response to a question Mr. Cunning- ham sald that he could not say at this time who wouid present the assoclation Dill to congress, Mr. Cunningham staid that he was rather anxious to get coples of the bills already presented in order to look them over before the assoclation presented Its bill. The rural letter carriers, he said, are dolng good work and more men are being aded to the rolls almost every day. He asserts that the men want to make the best possible showing, but insists that they are entitled to more money on account of the expense they are compelled to go to in getting a start. The pay Is $0 a| month and each carrier Is supposed to furnish his own horses and wagons and travel in all ktads of weather. When the regular session of congress opens it is more than likely that President Cunningham will ask for a leave of absence and go ! to Washington in order to look after the interests of the bill the assoclation pro- | poses to present. Harry Cohn Resigns. Harry L. Cohn, for some time assistant city attorney, has tendered his resignation to city attorney Murdock. This resigna- tion has been accepted. B. R. Lelgh is to |be named by the city attorney for the place made vacant by the resignation of Mr. Cohn. It is understood that Cohn | 18 to be court stenographer for Judge-elect Sutton. Mr. Lelgh is a well known South Omaha attorney and has many friends here | who will congratulate him on his appoint- ment. Mr. Cohn leaves the service of the eity at once and Mr. Leigh will assume the duties of assistant city attorney on Mon- day morning. New Directory Coming. Three men fn the employ of the Omaha Directory company are taking the names of adults for the 1904 city directory. This work has been started a little earlier than usual for the reason that the publishers expect to have the South Omaha edition out about January 1. Next month more men will be put on and the work of com- piling names and addresses will be pushed #0 that the copy can be sent to the printers about the middle of December. Those who are doing the work seem to think that the results will show quite an increase in popu- lation over tho government census of 1900, Celebrate Anniversary, The eighth anniversary of the Presby- terian Circle of Kings Daughters was cele- brated Friday afternoon at the home of Mrs. R. L. Wheeler. Mrs. C. W. Wright, superintendent of the third ten had charge of the meeting. About fifty women were present and enjoyed the program which had been arranged. There was a brief ad- dress by Dr. Wheeler and plans for the tuture work of the order were alked over.

Be- fore adjourning the soclety pledged $100, for a new church building. Squatters Plead Gullty. Three squatters appeared before Police Judge King yesterday and pleaded gullty to occupying public streets without au- thority. The gullty parties were fined the costs In the case, the payment of the fines being suspended for ten days in order to give an opportunity for moving the build- ings. In case the buildings are not moved in this time the fines will stand. It Is un- derstood that this policy will be pursued with other squatters against whom com- plaints have been file Decision Comes Monday. A great many South Omaha people were dlsappointed yesterday over the fact that Judge Dickineon did not hand down a de- cision in the street vacating ordinance case. It was expected that the declsion would be given out yesterday, but the Judge announced that he would get around to the matter on Monday. Only & few days ago the judge and & party of attorneys made a thorough inspection of the ground proposed to be vacated. Those interested in the viaduct proposition are very anxious that a decision be given as It is thought that the decision will have a great deal to do with the locating of & viaduct across the tracks.

FUN THEY HAD WHEN IN LIBBY Bishop McUabe Says Life in the Rich- mond Was Merry in a Degree. will meet in the afternoon. ting of the First Chri be held at the church A large audience gathered at the First church Saturday night to hear Bishop C. C. McCabe's lecture on the “Bright Side of Libby Prison.” The meeting was presided over by Rev. D. K. Tindall, pastor of Trinity Methodist Epis- copal church. Before beginning his lecture Bishop Me- Cabe sang several songs which were popu- lar during the clvil war; muslc was also turnished by the Yo#hg Men's Christian assoclation quartet. The speaker prefaced his remarks by teliing his audience the way In which the lecture originated. “I was in Philadelphia in 1864, he sald, “and was asked to deliver a lecture to some children on the war. As I did not wish to harrow their young minds by describing the gloomy sldes of war, I choose the humorous slde that I found in Libby prison. Since then 1 have delivered this lecture often, and at least six times in Omaha." \ Continuing, the bishop sald In part: *I was appointed chaplain of the One Hundred and Twenty-second Ohfo volunteer regi- ment under the command of Robert H. Millroy, and was along with that regi- ment when captured at Winchester. Being a noncombatant I expected to be released, but the confederates had dlfferent views and I was forced to march to Richmond with the rest of the men. Now, I had always expected Libby prison to be a ter- rible place, and expected to find the pris- oners heart-broken through long confine- ment; instead I found them as merry as schoolboys and ever ready for some kind of a joke. Indeed,” sald the speaker, “I would like to see a band of 600 Yankees Who could not scrape up some sort of fun. “The guards took all the money I had, but they paid it back to me—in confederate money. They also took any of our posses- slons which took thelr fancy. It was no uncommon thing to see confederate soldlers wearing the uniform of the northerners. There were about forty lawyers with us—a £00d many to be in one house—and to pass away the time they took a hand in training & young man named Bldir for the legal profession. He Is now practicing in New York and is the only man who has gradu- ated from the University of Libby Prison. ‘We passed a Fourth of July in prison and ushered it in with all its old-time rowdlness. There was one man who had a blue shirt and another who boasted a red one. These we took away from them and then hunted around for a white one. But we couldn't find any—washing was a luxury there. However, we patched up a unfon flag and hung it up from the beams, The guards saw It and pulled it down. But the strange part of it was that at the time the confederate guards were pulling down this flag of three shirts thelr own flag was being hauled down at Vicksburg. Bishop MoCabe closed his remarks with a word to the old soldiers. “We are a vanishing host,” he sald, “Every year sees our ranks thinner than the preceding one. My great desire is to meet you all in heaven.” CORTELYOU .MAY SEND MAN Secretary of New Cabinet Portfollo May Place Immigration In- spector in Omaha. Through the efforts of Senator Millard it s sald that Secretary Cortelyou has de- clded to create a new office, and appoint an official to take charge of it, in Omaha's tederal bullding. The officer will be known as an inspector of Immigration. Word has been received that the decision to appoint such an oficer has been reached and that his appointment will shortly take place. It is sald that Chinese residents who de- sire to return to their homes across the Paclfic have experienced a great deal of trouble in securing the papers which would permit them to leave andl return to this country and it is to straighten this matter out more than for any other reason that the office has been created. It is under- stood that some nearby towns will also be included in the territory over which the Omaha officer will have jurisdiction. MISS LEARN ON THE STAGE ot One of the several vivacious and pretty girls, Millle James, has assoclated with her in the Little Princess is Miss Lottie Learn, niece of the late Judge Learn, who was one of Omaha's police magiatrates and who held the office until he dropped dead in police court about three years ago.

Several months ago they separated and recently Mrs. Pallister started divoros proceedings. Of late Pal- lister has made efforts to patch up a truce. On Friday evening two cousins came to visit her and Pallister came to her rooms and saw her talking to one of the cousins in the hall, whereupon he started to In- jure her, but was prevented.

HEN Richard Baxter, noted in England in 1638, lost his wife he published a broadsheet headed : “The Last Words of Mrs. Baxter,” ,which reached an immense sale. His printer seeing the profit in it brought out a broadsheet entitled: “More Last Words of Mrs. Baxter.”, To which Mr. Baxter replied that “Mrs. Baxter didn’t say anything else.” If Mrs. Baxter she would, like were living today us, have a lot of *Jast words” to say about Uneeda Biscui They are ever growing better and better; there will ever be a few more good words to say for them.

FEATURES OF HER UNIQUE VOCATION | ficial Picture-Taker of the White House Relates Some of Her Fau- cinating Experiences with the Camera. Western women are always interested in other women who are “doing things.” and they have been especlally privicged this fall in meeting & number of such who have come out from the east, many of them for the first time. Last Monday Miss Fran- ces Benjamin Johnston was \a- guest in the city, she and her mother being enroute from a trip through the west to their home in Washington, D. C., Mrs, ¥. P. Dickey of 1909 Binney street, being their hostess. Miss Johnston is frequently called the “pioneer woman photographer,” afd is among the best known members of the profession in this country. through her mag- azine {Mustrations and her exclusive p.c- tures of persons of prominence. She has probably made more pictures of celebrities than any other and iIn so doing has had & variety of experiences that are most in- teresting and prove what is pcsible to a womanly woman with purpose, energy, and ability. It is these qua.ities that have Miss Johnston her success and stimulated by her example many other women have within the past few years attained suc- cess in the same lne. It was just at the close of the Spanish-American war that Miss Johnston accomplished a commission that won her a reputation and prestige. Admiral Dewey was returning from Man- fla and while the papers of America were devoting columns to him, there was noth- ing In the way of a recent picture of the hero or even of his ship to be had. Going into the office of a New York syndicate | one day Mr. George Granhan Bain sug- gested that she go to Naples and meet Ad- miral Dewey and get his plcture. Miss Johnston had planned an ocean voyage for recreation having just completed an especially heavy work, and so considered the proposition. The ship was to sail In two days later and on this short notice she undertook not only the commission but the task of obtaining some sort of creden- tials that would insure her an audien: with the admiral when she reached Naples. A letter of introduction from Governor Roosevelt was decided upon and she went down to Oyster Bay to request it. Upon her arrival she found Mr. Roosevelt had #one in bathing and as time was valuable proceeded to the beach and sent out her request for an interview, which was soon after granted on the veranda of the house This is the introduction he wrote her: Note that Co “My dear Admiral Dewey: Miss John- ston is a lady whom I personally know and can vouch for. Any promise she may make she will keep.” And armed with this Miss Johnston set out the following day, arriving at Naples the. same day as Olympla. Tt was after recelving hours, however, but she sent her note to the ad- miral and was immediately granted an interview which resulted in & promise for the pictures next morning, ‘and- when these had been obtained she salled for home with the first authorized pictures of the admiral and his flagship On another occasion when the protocol was signed at Washington for the sus- pension of hostilities and arrangement for treaty of peace with Bpain, Miss Johnston was given an opportunity of photograph- ing Becretary Hay and M. Cambon, who took part in the preparation of the docu- ment and signed it. The original of the document was also photographed by her. When the original draft of the treaty of peace was signed Miss Johnston was given & similar opportunity and again when rati- to that instrument. and was permitted to photograph the original document. Still another experience she had when the Unlited §tates warrants for $20,000,000, in | four warrants of $,000,000 each, were de- livered by Seeretary Hay to M. Cambon, representing Spain. She was not only al- lowed to photograph the transaction, but afterward the four warrants were pinned up and she photographed them, then re- turning the negatives to her studio to be developed while she went to dinner.” She was soon Interrupted by the appearance of one of the service men who requested that the plates be delivered to Jim as it | was illegal to make any reproduction of such government obligations. With much regret the plates were turned over, still wet, with the request that they be allowed to dry and when they did the negatives developed four fine plates. Last year when Miss Alice Roosevelt was introduced there were no good pictures | of her and after some persuasion the presi- | dent finally sent for Miss Johnston, who made the pictures used so widely in the papers and magazines at that time. Never but once has she been absolutely refused and then by Attorney General Gar- land, but Miss Johnston consoles herself by remembering that during his official career in Washington he never once wore a dress suit, which may be taken as evi- dence of his pecullarity. In speaking of the people she has taken Miss Johnston says that the great m Jority like to be photographed, especially the men. Finds Ring in Her Hat. Two colored men, a heating stove, a woman and a valuable diamond ring oc- cupled the center of the stage in a well known Omaha home on Friday afternoon and Saturday morning. The woman in the case hired the men to pui up the stove and while the work was being done placed her ring on a mantel. A few hours later she had occasion to put her hat on the same sheif. When the stove was up she cleared the disarranged room, moving her hat to ther room. Then' she thought of the ring. It was not on the shelf. No one but the men had been in the room since she placed the ring on the mantel. Sus- | piclon natuarally pointed them. Shs then put detectives on the case. Baturday morning she looked over her hat and found the ring hanging to the under part of her headdress, NEW ADJUTANT GENERAL HERE Colonel Henry 0. 8. Heistand Graduate of West Point and Has Busy Career. Colonel Henry v. 8. Helstand, assistant adjutant general U. 8. A., who is announced in the press dispatches as being ordered to Omaha for duty as adjutant general of the Department of the Missourl, has just arrived from the Philippines at San Fran- cisco. Colonel Helstand is a graduate of the West Point military academy. He was commissioned a second Illeutemant of the Eleventh United States Infantry June 14, 1878; first lleutemant, June 1, 188; captain, March 19, 1891; major and assistant adjutant general, September 11, 1897; lleutenant colonel and assistant adjutant general, April 28, 1500, and colonel in August, 1903, The officlal notification of Colonel Heis- tand's appointment as adjutant general of the Department of the Missourl had not been received at department headquar‘srs Saturday evening, hence It s not known at this time what changes the appoint- ment will effect in the personnel of the adjutant general's office here. STANDS WARMLY BY DIETRICH Senmator Millard Does Not Tolerate Alleged Scandal Colle “There is nothing new in the postmaster- ship in Omaha,” said Senator Millard thirty minutes before he and Miss Millard were driven to the Union station to take an eastbound train enroute for Washington. In reference to the United Statés district attorneyship, the senator said: “There has been no change so far as I know and possibly no change will be made. The present incumbent, W. 8. Summers, is acceptable to me. He is now holding over, hid term of office having expired a year ago." The faintest trace of a smile was de- picted on the senator's genlal countenance as he continued: “Senator Dietrich is against the reap- volving His .. every My signature on properties of a food product. kage. pointment of SBummers; he is back of Harry Lindeay for the place. All idis I hear about Summers and Dietrich, "graad Juries and the rest does not impress me a3 belng well founded. I have been asked all sorts of questions and told all sorts of things about the affaif, but have replied that I don't want to hear about it and as a colleague of Mr. Dietrich, who I -per- sonally highly esteem, it would be unfair for me to listen to these improbable stor- fes. ““There are several applicants for the po- sition of United States marshal, but as Mr. Mathews, the present incumbent holds of- fice until the middie of December. I have nothing to ofter regarding who will be [sclected for the place. 1 might tell you the names of the applicants. Mr. Low of the western part of the state, is one; Mathews is another and Mr. Newell of Cass county has presented his claim; Mr. Jenal of Cedar county Is also an appli- cant.” The senator and Miss Millard left at 4:20 over the Milwauke for Chicago, where they expect to arrive early this morning, and at 10:30 depart over the Pennsylvania for Washington and should arrive there Wy Monday noon. Senator Millard expressed the belief that the next regular session of congress, while of vast importance to the nation at large, would be eminently 50 to the west where irrigation and the reclama fon of arid land was rendered practicable by the bullding of great storage tanks, which mat- ter would come before both house and senate.
