Mrs. Stevens is frank to confess there was method in the selection of Omaha the meeting place of the convention this year. Milwaukee and Baltimore both worked hard for it, but prospects for results were brightest in Nebraska, so its invitation was accepted. | Mra. Stevens counts prohibition in Ten- leu«- the signal victory for the cause the last year and claims for the Women's Christian Temperance union a share in bringing It about. “The national convention was held at Naghville two years ago and its educative force was felt throughout the state,” she sald. Mrs. Stevens laughed at the cry a the & o'clock closing law. “It is & step In advanc she sald, “and we believe that where there is the senti- ment to enact such laws there will be senthiient enough to enforce them. Such regulation is right, and if it does not work out well make a change in your officials instead of the law and see what that will do for you Like the Kmnox Bill, Mrs, Stevens and Miss Gordon count the Knox bill the most effective national legislation that has been projected in the interest of temperance and while it is still far from what they hope ultimately, it 1s & vast improvement and will materially strengthen the work in prohibition states. “We expect the Omaha convention will be the largest ever held,” Mrs. Stevens sald, “The Women's Christian Temperance union s the largest woman's organization in the world and every delegate at its con- ventions represents a constituency of 500, There will be at least 800 delegates at the Omaha meeting and at least 1,00 visitors are being planned for besides. Ex-Governor Glenn of North Carolina will be one of the speakers. The meeting of the executive board of the union will im- mediately precede the convention. This body has 130 members and carries an im- Portant part of the work." Mrs. Frances B.

E. F. Felda and J. C. French, repre- eenting the interests of the South Omaha national banks, expect to go to Washing- ton to walt on the eomptroller of the cur- rency on the matter of the application of the South Omaha banks to make Bouth Omaha a reserve city, It is understood that some of the Omaha banks protest against this action and urge the comp- troller to withhold approval of the peti- tion of SBouth Omaha pn the ground that the two cities are practically one and make use of the same clearing house. The comptrolier, according to dipatches, has decided to give a hearing as soon as the South Omaha representatives can ar- range the date pf the same. Until that time no action on the application will be taken. J. C. French of the South Omaha Na tional bank said, in explanation yesterday afternoon: ‘““The advantage of making Bouth Omaha a reserve city Is this: Na tional banks in cities of less than 25,000 population are required to keep a 15 per cent reserve of thelr deposits. Of this sum three-fifths is kept in the vault of the bank and two-fifths, at the option of the bank, may be deposited In a reserve city. Any city which has the consent of three- fourths of the national banks may apply for the privilege pf becoming a reserve city, provided the population is over 2,000 It may be readily seen from the large busi- ness done in the state, from South Omaha | as a center, it would be to the advantage of country banks to deposit their reserve in South Omaha to meet conditions of the live stock market Protest Comes as Surprise. We applied for the privilege some time ago and had no Idea that any of the Omaha banks would enter Most of the South Omaha banks are affill- ated with national banks in Omaha. The point to the objection seems to be thal South Omaha and Omaha are under the same clearing house assoclation. Undoubt- edly, if South Omaha becomes a reserve city, it will draw off some of the reserve now enjoyed exclusively by the Omaha banks. “Mr. Folda and myself expect to start for Washington as s0on as we hear defi- nitely of the date set for the hearing. I presume this date will be about Saturday.” F. W. Clark, cashier of the Union Stock Yards National bank, spent part of the day Wednesday in the office pf the ci clerk preparing data for use before the comptroller to show the volume of bus ness done in South Omaha, revealed by the clerk’s record, and the claim whicl the banks of the city advance for recogn! tion, Lighting Blds Paszlers, The city councll is to have a special meeting as « committee of the whole some time before the close of the week to investigate the lighting proposition. The new company has apparently the ad- vantage of the bid for the city lighting by $5, having placed a bid for the public light at $70 per arc. ' It I8 unknown, however, whether the #ew company in- tends to enter the field of commerciul lighting. If not, the-Omaha Electric Light and Power: comiphfiy comes for- ward with the argimen{ that the royaity now pald on privaté lighting would amount to $7 per lamp for each public light. This would make the bid $§ cheaper than the bid of the new company, to say nothing of the taxes to be pail by the company which has o large a system of private distributing lines. The new company offers to produce commercial current for 12 cents per Kkilowatt hour and 6 cents excess, while the Omaha Flectric Light and Power company offers the current at cents and 6 cents. If it 1s the intent of the new company to produce commerclal current In com- petition with the old company It will be obliged to pay of its gross rnings. It is likely that the new company will make it clear to the council before the matter is taken up in the committee of the whoie just how far it will seek to supply commercial current. If the new company gets the contract the old company will be relleved from paying the royalty and will be able with- out loss to reduce about '3 of a cent the price to the consumer. But with the advantage of an established system the Omaha company would doubtless meet any price proposed. Adair in South Omaha, Lou Adatr was lodged in the Souti Omaha jall yesterday.

He was found in a crit- ical condition and unconsclous at 7 o'clock Thureday morning by Night Clerk W. H. Jester. The man was removed In the po- lice patrol to St. Joseph's hospital, where he died.

Parents who have weak, puny, delicate children will be interested in the story of little Arthur Hartmann, Jr., of Houston, Texas, which was recently brought public notice. He is the son of A. R. Hartmann, a steam engineer, who for- merly lived at 219 Hutchins street, Hous- ton, Texas, but has since removed outside the city limits and lives on one of the rural routes. Regarding his little boy's illness and sub- sequent recovery, Mr. Hartmann says: “My baby boy was sick for two years. He had an attack of inflammation of the stomach and intestines, and later suffered from fin- digestion. I consulted several doctors, but they could prescribe nothing in the way of food that would agree with him, and although 1 spent hundreds of dollars for drugs, tonics, patent foods, etc. there scemed to be no hope of pulling him through. “I was not a believer in advertised rem- edies, especially for children, but when so many doctors had failed to help him, I d cided to try Coper's New Discovery, which had been highly recommended by respon- sible persons. 1 make no exaggeration when 1 say his condition changed for the better the very first day we gave him the Copper medicine, and his rapld improvement was a delight to see. “His bowels were thoroughly cleansed, his appetite increased, he gained strength and soon began to play and show signs of life and health. We gave him the New Dis- covery about ten weeks, by which time he was entirely recovered. He Is now three years old and weighs forty pounds, or, in other words he gained nineteen pounds while taking the Cooper medicine, “We feel deeply-gratetut for what Coop- er's New Discovery has done for our little boy—in fact, I do not belleve he would have been with us now were it not for this splendid medicin, ‘ooper's New Discovery is now on by ail druggists everywhere.
