Mrs. Fredericks was in Omaha at the time, but similarity of the names caused the error. v Waits for Recount——''Bob" Druese- dow is waiting for a recount in Cali- fornia and several other places in the country before he pays his election bet of $5 to his office girl, Miss Marie Spellman, whose political judgment on the relative strength of Hughes and Wilson was better than his.

F. Goodrich Rubber company, The rubber company re- ported the theft of several hundred. dollars’ worth of merchandise and a valuable watch stolen from the desk of an employe. Buford came in to make a purchase, while detectives were on the way up, and he was told about it, Suspicion was directed toward Ben- nett, and Buford questioned him and learned that he had been gambling. The sermon commenced immediately, and soon Bennett confessed to steal- ing the watch and told where he had pawned it. He stood pat on the thef! of the merchandise, however. By t time the detectives came, he was will- ing to accompany the officers to the |} |¢ 2 ) in police court and sentenced to thirty days| pawnshop, where the watch was sub- sequently found. 3 ! Bennett was arraigned in in the workhouse. Unable to Tell Who Put Bullet in Jaw How Eric Fredrickson of Archer, Neb., came to be shot through the| fleshy part of his jaw last night is a ! mystery which even he cannot solve, | he says, i He walked into a cigar store at 1402 | Farnam street last night and asked for | a doctor, When Police Surgeon Kully | came, he exhibited a small caliber bui- let hole in his cheek. He says he was standing in front of a saloon near | the postoffice when a man came up to him and shot him, and then ran away. He said he did not get a good enough look at his assailant to give a descrip- tion. He is being detained at head-| quarters for investigation, Mail Carriers io Give Concert for the Charities The mail carriers’ concert will he given at the Auditorium Sunday aft-| ernoon for the benefit of the Associat- ed Charities.

MecDanlel, alleged wife murderer, Pensions amounting to $672,000 wers pald to 331 college and university professors and 127 widows of professors, during the last year by the Carnegle Foundation, ac- cording to annual reports of the president and treasurer, Dr. Henry S. Pritchett and Robert A. Franks, at the annual meeting of the trustees at New York. Formation of the Natlonal Industrial Con- ference board with twelve of the most im- portant industrial organizations of the coun- try in its membership, as a ‘clearing house of information” in the proposed study of problems confronting manufacturers of the United States, was announced at New York at a meeting of the National Founders association, an organization of iron manu- facturers. A. B. Cowan, district commercial superin- tendent of the Western Union Telegraph company in charge of Illinols and lowa, was appointed general manager of the Mountain division, comprising elght states, with headquarters at Denver.

An- | table and managed the evening's en- Hustlers Spend Day in Scout Work. GOOD HAUL THE RESULT| The ninety-five men who hustled yesterday afternoon dragged them- selves into the club rooms at 6:30 faces and brushed their hair for the ner. H. O. Wilhelm, captain of the crew that set out to drag in the 100 new members in a single Gay, headed the A little hot coffee, a good steak brought new life to the faded comrades, | Many of the men who signed up | for membership during yesterday's | campaign were at the tables, Every man signed was invited to attend the | dinner and get acquainted and be ini- | tiated, The band played ragtime, the col- ored boys danced southern plantation clogs and the workers delivered im- promptu speeches. few weeks ago Wilhelm and his hosts attacked the city with a view to bringing in 100 members in a, three-day campaign. This time they | went out determined to bring in 100 in one day. The task was almost too much for them, but they came with a good day’s kill just the same. Now that the work of the various teams hustling Commercial club membership yesterday has been checked up, it is found the committee brought sixty-seven memberships actually in the game bag in the eve- ning of ‘a single day’s work, and that some fifteen others promised to send their checks in by mail at once. Others are contingent upon this or that so that it looks as lflough the 100 mark for the single day, which was the goal set, will probably be practically reached when all the results of yes- terday’s work are finally in, Concert at Gretna by | Creighton Glee Club Last Saturday evening Prof. Henry Bock, musical director at Creighton university, and sixteen members of the Glee club went to Gretna, where they helped make up a program ar- ranged in honor of Father Wallace of that piace. A home talent play was the main feature, yet the club successfull entertained between the acts, ]oscpg Ostdick gave a violin solo. John Fer- ris rendered a well received violin solo, while two numbers which will be used in this year's concert, to be staged some time in February, were rendered by the club. It is planned to stage a light opera as part of this season's concert and i the Wilson majority already practice is being held each Backed Candidate Addressed by F. 8. Howell. AMERICANS BE FIRST Thirty-nine young high school Hughes workers who helped reduce in Nebraska held a banquet at the Rome hotel last evening. F. S. Howell, chairman of the re- publican county central committee, gave them a short talk. “T regret that the latest returns from our recent election have some- what cooled the ardor of the pre-elec- tion republican spirit,” said Mr Howell, “but a lesson Is to be learned from one of these campaigns. After the heat of the battle has passed we settle back into an American spirit. “The campaign was a partisan one where we chose our would-be stand- ard bearer and followed the best fight that we could to take him to ‘victory. “We have in this room a type of the American citizen and when you are grown to manhood the future of the United States will rest in you. “We sometimes lose dignity in po- litical discussion, but when the elec- tion is over and our president is chosen it is the duty of every patri- otic_citizen, regardless of preference or for whom he may have worked, to assist that president so far as it is in his power so to do. If he then does not measure up to your ideal, cross swords with the party that put him there, four years hence.” The boys showed their appreciation and republican spirit by giving Mr, Howell three cheers, followed by their high school yell. The following were in attendance: Fred Hummell, Wesley Runpnel, Robert E, Hanna, Ralph Kohn, Gren Porter, Weber Oslson, Edward Munvoe, Milton A, Nelson, L. M.
