Al tu OMAHA NOW HAS AERO CLUB| Takes First Step Toward Going After Intérnational Balloon Meet. WILL FOLLOW IT UP WITH OTHERS Project Is Organized at Commereial Club and Will Have the Active Backing of the Business Interests. Omaha—rather Nebraska—was placed on the aerial map and an aerial club was launched at the Commerclal club by sev- erai local business men Friday. They ap- pointed a committee to draw up papers of incorporation and proceed with the perfec- tion of the organization, Among thoss projecting the movement [and present at this Initial meeting were David Cole, Edgar Allen, J. M. Gulla, H. E. Fredrickson, Clarke Powell, J. J. Deright, J. T. Stewart, jr., and Colonel W. A. Glassford of Fort Omaha ¢ An etfort will be made to affillate Omaha Wwith the national body and receive the #ame recognition as any other club. The committee on incorporation consists of J. J. Deright, Clarke G. Powell and J. M. Guild, Omaha is still after the big balloon meet | o be held and the new club will make a, strong bld for it on the ground that | Omaha's location Is unsurpassed. State-Wide Organizatio: The name of this club will be the Aero Club of Nebraska. It is designed to take in all in the state experimenting along this line. The Commercial club has been investi- gating the conditions for landing the next blg balloon meet for a long time and found the organization of a club to be one of the essentials. David Cole was chair- man of & committee to pursue this Investi- gation. With this organization the Com merclal club belleves the city may fairly enter the contest. Colonel Glasstord, in command of Fort Omaha, where the signal corps Is stationed, is expert In aeronautics and Lieutenant W. N. Haskell is an adept sky pllot, so here is another bLig asset upon which Omaha can draw While Omaha has the biggest hydrogsn &8s plant In the country and possibly in the world, it Is not available for private balloon enterprises at this time. Unele Sam has no provision for selling or giving away hydrogen and untll congress recog- nizes the value of having outsiders con- duct extensive experiments, all of which will be to the benefit of the War depart- ment, there is nn prospect of that plant gogog) BLO tho outward symptoms is not all that is nocessary to cure The virulent germs which produce those extor- completely driven from the blood before a rocl The least taint left in the lator cause a fresh outbreak of the trouble, with Remov] Oontaglous Blood Poison, nal manifestations must be cure can be effected. of ulcerated mouth and throat, o ulcers, etg, Only a blood pur Mediclnes Which merely chec o1 mineral nature, and leave the broug) such-treatment, r the Men's WOMEN'S SHOES™ and High shoes and low shoes, in newest 1910 ideas—patent colt, gun metal and velours, vici kid, lace, button and blucher styles—welt or hand rned soles.

It is solely for Uncle Sam's signal corps. Omaha has, however, during the last year landed an industry that will be Invaluable in time. That 1s the Prest-O-Lite company, of which Carl G. Fisher of Indianapolis is president. Mr. Fisher is one of the leading aeronauts of the country and one of the committee of three of the Aero club of America to arrange an aeronautical racing calendar for 1910. Applications for Events. Application for balloon events for the coming year must be made to this com- mittee before March 1. The time is short and it Is doubtful if Omaha will get in on the home events, but It is the International contest it 1s after particularly, on account of having the proper etevation and being best located to insure & long flight. Should balloons start from an elevation such as Denver, a mile above sea level, the pres- pect of & long flight 1s seriously impaired They cannot carry sufficlent ballast to per- mit of raising from time to time, as the gas condenses, etc., whereas the elevation from Omaha is such that the gas has greater lifting power and a lower altitude can be maintained in the afr. The Omaha Gas company has assured the committee of a plentiful supply of gas, the amount required being 80,000 cubic feet each for ten balloons, making the minimum 500,000 cuble feet.

BIC TIME FOR WRESTLERS Zbyszko and Westergaard Coming March Four. | PAVES WAY FOR GOTCH MATCH Winner of Bout Will Be Entitled to Championship Match with the Husky lowan-—Fast Pre- liminaries. Now for the big noise. As soon as Manager Gillan gets his Auditorfum cleared of the auto show and its appurtenances he will begin to put it In shape for the big wrestle of the season between Jess Westergaard and Zbysako, March 4. This match will be the sensation of the wrestling season and Mr. Gillan is anxious to leave no stone unturned that will con- duce to the seating and the comfort of the crowd that will pour into the big bullding that night. On the outcome of that match depends much in the wrestling world. Should Westergaard throw the big Pole, it will mark him as one of the thres men en- titled to a go with Champlon Gotch, and if the Pole wins, It makes him all the more a_candidate for this honor. Bill Hokuf and Policeman McOabe, the glant %iller, will go on In the preliminaries and they ought to make a. fast match. McCabe Is the fellow who threw Police- man Jensen and «s he Is a little heavier than Hokuf he U expected to make Big Bill go some. Another fast prelininary match will be between Jack Tolliver, the barber bull dog, |and George Ruby, a protege of Farmer | Burns. This will be the most scientific of any except the main event.

The motion will be based on several paragraphs in Judge Estelle’s instructions to the jury, notably the sentences relating to insanity. “You will understand,” the court told the jury, “that nervousness, eccentrieity, odditles of manner and hypochondria are not insanity nor evidences of insanity." “Where was there any hypochondria in this case” ask counsel for the prisoner. Refer- ences to this portion of the charge as *‘a Chautapqua lecture” have been made by disrespectful friends of the convicted man.
