THE OMAHA AFFAIRS: AT SOUTH OMAHA Bernard Maslousky is Held Up in| y Store and Robbed. DR. A. H. KOENIG BADLY HURT Numerous Petitions Filed with City Council Des ting Material Wanted for Paving—— Koniak Stabbed. Bernard Maslowsky, jr., was held up last evening in his father's grocery store and lost over $40 from the cash drawer. The holdup was the work of two negroes, ac- cording to the story of Maslowsky. He was alone In the store and was just getting ready to closo for the night about 7:30, when the highwaymen entered. They cov- ered him with revolvers and searched the place, taking from the store a revolver and & number of pocketknives, as well as (he cash. Maslowsky is about 21 years old and often has charge of the store. He was able to give the police a good description and said the negroes were young fellows of 24 or less, wearing black caps and coats. He remembered brass buttons on one coat, which was really a working jacket. The police arrested several suspects, but Mittle evidence was found to connect them with the case. Unless young Maslowsky gan identity them they will be dismissed. Dr. A. H. Koenig Hurt. Dr. A. H. Koenig was struck by a coaster on Thirteenth and L streets last night and received injuries which rendered him unconsclous for half an hour and left @ painful cut on his scalp. The coaster was one of the long travelers and was loaded down with Poilsh young people. The doctor | was on & call and was driving west on I, street when the coaster came down at great speed from the top of the hill at thirty-third street. He came near avolding them by turning into the street leading Into the Union stock yards. The runners took both wheels off the buggy on the right side and threw Dr. Koenig out. Several of the occupants of the coaster were in- Sured also, but they were all hurried away and no one would tell who was injured. They feared they might have to pay for the damage done.

Secretary, and Florence Jenks Meet Accident. is visiting He expects Florence Wade, 13-year-old daughter of Secretary B. C. Wade of the Young Men's Christian assoclation, was seriously in- jured and Fiorence Jenks, daughter of Rev. Edwin Hart Jenks, pastor /of the First Presbyterian church, was painfully bruised late Friday afternoon, when a bob- sled on which the girls were coasting crashed Into a light delivery wagon at Twenty-seventh street and Capitol ave- nue. Miss Wade suffered a slight concussion of the brain, according to the attending physiclan, Dr. D. A. Foote, and, although no bones were broken, her face and body le a mass of brulses and lacerations, A lengthy gash on tne forehead, just above the eye, and cuts about the face necessitated fifteen stitches and an Injury to a lower limb in which a gash was cut through to the bone necessitated further surgical work. Despite her painful acel- dent and the shock the little girl did not lose consclousness and late last night was reported as resting comfortably. She | at her parents' home, 124 North Twenty- fourth street. Miss Jonks' injuries are hardly more than a few bodily brulses and contusions, She was taken to her home, 248 Capltol ave- nue, but medical attendance was not neces- sary. The acocldent occurred about 4 o'clock, shortly after school had- closed.

The driver, a youth, stopped his team and assisted the Injured girls in every way possible. He Is in no way blamed by the girls or their parents for the occurrence, as they say the accident was unavoldable. “We do not know whose wagon it was or the name of‘the driver,” sald Mr. Wade, In commenting on the case, “and shall make no effort to learn his name, as we are confident it was not due to his care- lessness and was entirely unavoldable,” Rabbi Cohn's Talk on Beecher Gives Discourse at Temple Israel on Life and Work of Great Brook- lyn Preacher, An Interesting discourse on “The Life and Career of Henry Ward Beecher, Preacher and Author,” was glven last evening by Rabbl Frederick Cohn of Temple Israel. “Henry Ward Beecher, man of God and triend of man,” was the way Rabbi Cohn alluded to the famous pastor of Plymouth church, Brooklyn, the man wha did so much toward the uplifting of the slaves and for humanity in general. After telling of Beocher's early struggle in a small Indiana town, the speaker told how he was called to Brooklyn, where he bullt up the world-famed Plymouth church, ““The secret of his wondertul power,” said Rabbi Cobn, s in his personality. It was the naturalness and sincerity of a man. He was a living man preaching to living men on living 1ssues. ““Broad, liberal and free, he spoke through the orthodox cause. He preached not theology, but pure, essential religion. He contended for liberty and right and his editorials and sermons were read by all the world." The speaker then told of Beecher'’s work |to wipe out slavery on this continent and of his visit to Burope, where, by his great oratory, he transformed the mebs of Lon- don and . Edinburgh from an attitude of hostility to one of sympathy to the United States. In closing, Beecher was alluded to by the speaker as “one of the most prom- inent and the most public figures in America."” Acquire the habit of keeping on hand a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and save anxiety.

OMAHA MEN HAVE PART IN ALASKA COAL CASES Mention of the Mullens, Well Known Here, in Alaska Coal Lands Deals that Have Center of Stage. The Alaska coal land cases, which are at the bottom of the Ballinger-Pinchot con- troversy In Washington, are the subject of an extended review by John E. Lathrop and George Kibbe Turner in the January McClure's. One of the incidents detailed brings the names of Omaha men, P. M. Mullen, receiver of the government land office at Juneau, and his son, Ignatius Muilen, as follows: ‘Now, after the Heyburn law of April 28, 1904, and before the president's message stopping all action in Alaska coal lands in November, 1906, virtually all the Alaskan coal claimants had taken the first action required; that Is, they had located claims under the new law.

It was also stated, in the report of wwe agents Love and Jones, that his father, the land office receiver, said that he himself had ed- vanced the money paio on Ignatius Mullen's claim. This, however, was after- ward denied by Mr. Mullen. “In February, 197, while it was generally belleved that the government would take no money in payment for Alaska coal lands because of President Roosevelt's order, the Cunningham clalmants tendered pay- ment for thelr claims to P. M. Mullen, land recelver at Juneau, with whom they had this close relation, and through him got a special ruling from the land office at Washington. Thelr contention that they could pay their purchase money was right. The land office ruled that, while no more coal could be filed upon In Alaska, those | who had tiled in g0od faith upon land be- | fore the order of November, 106, could | proceed to make ‘purchase’ and ‘entry’ of the land.” motion by Ritchie to grant him (he custody of the boys. “Its bad enough,” said the court, eople who have only been ‘when marrfed two || or three years cannot agree, but when they have been wedded thirty-five it is deplor- able.” BELLEVUE FOOT BALL MEN ARE HONORED AT BANQUET Alumni Are Hosts to Gridiron War- riors at Paxton Hotel—Thirteen Players Present.
