Savidge celebrated yes- terday the thirty-elghth anniversary of his graduation from the University ot Minnesota. “I went right to preaching then.” he sald, “and have had charge of a church ever since. I have had over 4,000 funerals. 1 have never heen sick in that time, and for sixty vears | haven't taken a drop of medicine.” Mr. Savidge is organizing a funeral | benefit fund in connection with his church. He has noted the many who die and leave no funds At all for burial of | their bodies. The fund will be acoumu- | lated by means of dues of 15 cents | month, Every member will receive a! without any difficulty. Weather Clear and | Railroads Back on Their Schedules | The railroads all report clear and rather cool weather over the entire area of country between the Rocky mountains and the Missouri river. Apparently the woather has cleared. However, Sunday rain visited so any localities that it Was pretty nearly general over Nebraska. In the west and southweatern portions it was heavy, the precipitation ranging from one-half to two Inches In the southwest the Republican river again got out of itsa banks, but is now rapldly running down. U'p around Neligh the Elkhorn rose rapidly, following a rain that appears to have beon almost a cloudburat. Wagon bridges wore washed ' out and much of the land along the bot- toms flooded. DR.

Genera] Attack Ordered. ““On the morning ot June 4 Sir lan Hamilton ordered a general attack on the Turkish trenches in the southern area of the Gallipoll peninsula, preceded by a heavy bombardment by all guns, assisted by battleships, cruisers and de- | stroyers, | “At a glven signal the troops rushed | forward with the bayonet. They were | immediately successful all along the line, except in one spot, where the heavy wire | entanglements were not destroyed by the | bombardment. India Do Well. “Indian troops on our extreme left made a magnificent advance. They cap- tured two lines of trenches, but, owing to the fact that the troops on their right were hung ™§ by the wire entanglement, | they were ®bliged to retire to their orig- inal line. The regular division made good progress on the left center, cap- turing a strong redoubt and two lines of trenches beyvond it, about &0 yards in advance of their original line. “The territorial division of our center did brillantly, advancing 600 yards and capturing three lines »f trenches, but, though the advanced captured trench was held all day and half of the ensuing night, they had to be ordered back in the moming to the second captured line, as both their flanks were exposed. ““The naval division on our right center captured a redoubt and a (orn'\ldnhle line of trenches constructed in three tiers 300 | vards to their front, but they, too, had to be ordered back, owing to the heavy enfllading fire. French in Gallant Attack. *“The French second division advanced with great gallantry. They retook for the fourth time that deadly redoubt they call Le Haricot, but, unfortunately, the Turks developed heavy counter attacks through parallel communication trenches, and under cover of an accurate shell fire were able to recapture it. “On the French extreme right the French captured a strong line of trenches, which, though heavily counter attacked twice during the night, they | still oceupy. ‘ “We captured 400 prisoners, Including ten officers. Amongst the prisoners were five Germans, the remains of a volun- teer gun detachment from the Goeben (the Turkish crufser Sultan Zelim). Thelr officer was killed and the machine gun was destroyed. Make Night Attack. “During the night information was re- celved that enemy reinforcements were advancing from the direction of Maidcs toward Krithla. Thereupon Lieutenant General Birdwood arranged to attack the trenches in front of Quinn's post at 10 o'clock, which was succeasfully carried cut and the captured trenches held throughout the night. The Turkish cas- ualties were very heavy. “At 6:30 a. m. the enemy heavily coun- ter attacked, and, by means of heavy bombs, forced our men out of the most forward trench, though we still held communication trenches made during the night, *“The result of these operations is that we have made an advance of 50 yards, which includes five lines of Turkish trenches along & front of nearly three sfles, We are now consolidating our new positions and strengthening the lines.” Traveling Men to Have a Busy Time Local members of the Travelers’ Pro- tective association are laying their plans for the entertalnment of the delegates who come to the convention to be held in Omaha June 16-18.

DRUNKARD LANDS IN THE BOTTOM OF GARBAGE WAGON Jack Kowski, who drives a garbage wagon, drew up In front of police head- quarters this morning and asked assist-| ance In getting a drunken man out of his | refuse bus. He did not know how the | fellow got in the vehicle. | When Kowski drove away from the river bank after getting rid of his load the wagon was empty. At Tenth and Juckson streets he looked around and| saw & men peacefully sleeping in the | bottom of his craft. Patro! Conductor Burchard, Desk BSer- geant Marshall and Officer Francl :- wvited the gent into the station house. He sat up and told !hlm'oulhllo'l.' and wallowing contentedly in the fiith | the wagon, he proceeded to turn over | §0 to sleep. After deliberating how extract the stranger from the mess, an onlooker asked why they didn't the patent bottom. Willing hands the crank, the bottom of the wagon the passenger was spilled in street. He refused to talk when up and was booked as John Doe. Ei trance, His face wore a stern look Horror fixed every young face motion less with its mouth open. Silence as in tense as that of death ensued. Then some lad sighed. The boy nearest the door turned as if to leave. Run fellers,” yelled someone and twen- four small boys broke madly for the open air. The tremendous laugh of the ‘barker’”” intensified the panic. The lads arrived at their respective school rooms with tongues hanging out and sides hehv- ing and their teachers wondered as to the reason. The boys didn’t tell the story. Carver, upon calling at the circus grounds had seen some of the urchins and arranged the rest of the events with the clrcus man.

Howard Declares Crops Best Ever 8. B, Howard of the Burlington's land department, s back from an extended tour over Wyoming and Nebraska and asserts that during his thirty years' residence in this state, he has never seen crop prospects 5o good as now. Sald Mr. Howard: “There are some localities Where the recent heavy rains have damaged the crops, but the area is eo small, com- pared with that benefited that the dam- age 18 insignificant. “Small grain never looked so well. The cool weather and the rain has killed the insects and at this time it looks as if & bumper crop is sbsolutely certain. Corn is a little late, but the stand is $00d and the plant has rooted thoroughly during the cool weather. With warm sun- |shine from now on, this late corn will s00n make up for lost Lime and the crop ought to be most bountiful.” CITY DADS WILL DECIDE ON REPAVING THURSDAY Protests of citizens against the proposed repaving of Tenth street, Willlam to Mason streets, prompted C. E. Fanning. paving contractor, to tel] the city eoun- cll coramittee of the whole that the pres- ent execrahle condition of this streetw is due to care'essness of public service cor- porations in replacing street outs and negligence of city officiale for not having required proper replacement of cuts. Superintendent Jardine of the public improvement deartment is endeavoring to have the sandstone surface of this street relaid under the new paving law. The commissioners will look over the street and decide the matter Thursday. PR ———— To Sleep Woll in Summer.
