Son of & bricklayer and stonemason. Harry Olson worged hard and energetically from, the time he was 12 yeara old. As a young | man he began ta practice law in an office in the Chamber of Commerce bulld- Ing In Chicago. He became assistant state’s attorney under Governor Denecen at a salary of $,600 per year. At that time he could have had a much more remnuerative position, but chose to accept the assistant state’s attorneyship for the sake of the wide experience it would af- ford him. During the next ten years as assistant state's attorney he engaged in almost all the important cases handled by the state attorney's office The city central suffrage committee has arranged for Judge Olson to address a mass meeting in the council chamber of the city hall Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock.

DES MOINES, April 2.—(Special Tele- gram.)—Fifty-six members of the Inside Electrical Workers' union, who walked out of the shops of the eight members of the Electrical Contractors' assoclation last Wednesday on a strike, in which they demanded union shop oconditions, will go back to work tomorrow morning, according to an agreement reached in a meeting between representatives of the union and the association. The men | go back to work under open shop con- ditlons as before. The contractors have refused to meet their demands in that respect, but will increase their wages 2 cents per day. The strike has been a quiet one, al- Lectures on Evolutlon—A course of three weekly lectures on “The Meaning of Evolution” is planned for Thursday even-' ings at the City National bank assembly hall, beginning April 2.

Stringer's class of boy students of fundamental ag- slculture, The girls' gardening club of Central High school will be affiliated, but ‘the high school students wjll not compete for the prizes, because they are older than the average garden club mem- bers. Women Go Upon Home Excursion Under the guldance of G. W. Clabaugh, a large party of the members of the Omaha Manufacturers’ assoclation, ac- companied by their wives, went out yes- terday afternoon on the first Home Trade excursion of the year, visiting the Ala- mito Sanitary Dairy plant and the Iten Biscut company's factory. The excur- sion started from the Woodmen of the World buliding, the party going in one of the large cars of the street rallway company, chattered for the occasion. At the Alamito plant the bottling of milk, making butter and fermilac was in full blast. Members of the party went through the plant from basement to top and marveied at the cleanliness that was everywhere apparent. The cooling rooms and fce plant came in for a share of at- tention, as did the bottle washing and ster{lizing machine. Before leaving the visitors were served with a lunch of crackers, butter and milk. There were cigars for the men and souvenirs for the ‘womien. Then the car was boarded and the trip to the Iten Biscult factory was made. Few of the visitors had ever been through a modern baking establishment and that of the Iten company proved most interesting. Every department was inspected and every department was found as clean a8 the rooms of a well regulated home. ‘The excursionists were taken to the top floor and from there they followed the raw material through its devious ways, seeing the ingredients of cakes, cookies, crackers and bread mixed, baked, packed and made ready for shipment. All of the intricacies of the business were thor- oughly explained and all wondered when they saw dough go into the mixing ma- chines and a few moments later come ut of the ovens, cooked to & turn and ready for the table. At the Iten plant the visitors upon leav- ing, were presented with boxes of Alpine reams and cheese wafers as souvenirs, High School Show Will Be Repeated The vaudeville show given by the Cen- tral High school puplls last week was so great a success that a demand was made fur another performance. Another per- formance was decided upon, provided the pupils would sell as many as 300 tickets. A list of the number of tickets desired Ly high school puplls obtained Wednes- day showed that more than 40 wanted to see the show again. The show will be given at the high school auditorium on Saturdi evening and the public is invited. The auditorium will comfortably seat 7% people. The show will be given, with the eption of a few slight changes, the same way as before Phillp Chase, who took the part of the college professor in the sketel, will be out of town. ox though the contractors have been im- porting men from other cities to do the work already contracted for at the time of the walk out. Admits Killing Wife, Joseph = Heathcote, the 26-year-old miner, who killed his bride of less than a year, two weeks ago, pleaded gulity to the charge in district court today. He pleaded to second degrees murder. He ‘Wil be sentenced Sattirday. New “Bluesky” Law is Satisfactory. The new “bluesky” law just passed by the general assembly is declared to be very satisfactory to the officials of the state, thuugh it is known that the organization of brokers and bond sellers which fought the former law off thoe books will also oppose this one in the courts and attempt to completely defeat it. The new law is strictly a statute against fraud and does not aim at any- thing except where there is evidence of fraud or what may work out as a fraud. For that reason it is declared that the dealers in legitimate securities will not oppose it in any way. The direction of the law will be left with the secretary nf| state and it will be handled as the for- mer law was. There were eighty-one permits granted under the old law for the sale of stocks and securities before the law was annulled. There were three brokers’ permits granted. Plan for Industries at Farm. The state board of control is arranging for a large brick plant on the state cus- todial farm, which is located near Des Moines, when it is opened. In fact, the brick plant may be started very soon. Excellent material is found on the farm and it was to some extent for this rea- son that the farm was bought. The leg- islature authorized the utilization of the labor of the prison and reformatory in any public works anywhere; and it is thought the board will have the right to open a brick plant on the custodial farm, making use of convict labor, maintained open air camps during the summer. Halt of the farm has been leased for agricul- tural purposes, but the remainder will be used by the state, and there s very great need of starting industries to kcep the prisoners busy this year. Prepare for New Sheep Barn. The State Board of Agriculture will commence at once the erection of a new | $25,000 sheep barn or pavilion on the state fair grounds with the money ap- propriated for that purpose by the leg- Islature. The new barn will resemble the swine pavilion, but not be as large It will meet the wishes of the shecp breeders and exhibitors of the state and be a great incentive to wool growing in Towa. The state board is also advertis- ing this week for offers on the con- struction of a new sewer system on the state fair grounds with over two wiles of sewers. Will Not Join Federal Reserve. It is regarded as extremely doubtful if a single bank organized under the laws of the state of Iowa will undertake to become a member of the federal reserve system. The legislature passed a law permitting Iowa banks to join the re serve if they so desired. It was felt that no legal obstacle should be placed in fheir way. A year ago several of the banks were anxious to join the system, but since it has been in operation it is stated they have decided it would be just as well to stay out. Only sixteen banks organized under state laws, in all the states of tie unlon, have thus far joined the fedcial reserve, so the state banking department reports, Two lowa banks have this year become national banks &nd since the first of the year three other state organized banks have dissolved be cause of consolidations, Hut been about twenty new s ganized, The state auditor for banks there t banks v statement from the as of Miss Hoffman may have another new song and Miss Sinclair and Elmer Camp- Lell will change their dances a little. ind cottages | ! cheaply by a ‘For Rent Bee RLEGTRIC WORKERS RETURN|METHODISTS URGED T0 RELIGIOUS WORK Bishop Henderson Proposes Quarter | Million New Members in Coming Year. NON-PRODUCER GETS SCORED “Two hundred and fifty thousand new Methodists between May 23, 1915, and Easter Sunday, April 23, 1916,” was thg slogan suggested by Bishop Theodore Henderson, chair- man of the Methodist National Com- mission on Evangelism, at a large mass meeting held at the First Methodist church last evening. He urged overy Methodist between the dates mentioned to put forth every ctfort in the work and marshal the forces of good in such a manner “that when the tabulation of the results is made the fig- ures will show the most epochal year of Christian progress In fifty years.'” His appeal was received with great en- thusiasm by the meeting, especially when he declared that “the greatest tragedy in Omaha or any other city is the social, moral and religious non-producer.” Systematic Religlous Work. In furtherance of the coming campaign he asked that loyal Methodists devote at least two hours a month exclusively to re- liglous work for the next year, each in- dividual's activities during this period to be outlined by his pastor. At least 500,000 Methodists are expected to respond te this call. The bishop gave statistics to show how the church each year Is increasing its membership and works by gigantic strides and that, chronic pessimists to the con- trary, the progress of Methodism has been great in every branch. Bishop Henderson spoke briefly on the coming of Billy Sunday to Omaha and praised the latter’s accomplishments in Philadelphia and other cities. He further declared that “No state needs prohibition more than Nebraska,” and expressed his earnest hope that the people of Omaha would rally to Sunday's campalgn to ef- fect prohibition throughout the state.
