L S LA L Magor Acquitted of Charge of Murder 0f Wife's Suitor Batesville, Ark, Now 19.—Gilbert Richardson, mayor of Batesville, was acquitted of murder by a jury in cir- cuit court here late today. The jurors deliberated three hours. As the verdict was read, Richard- son’s 17-year-old wife, the alleged cause of the killing for which he was tried, Yushed into his arms and they wept together, The mayor and his wife left town in an automobile imme- diately and their whereabouts are not known. The trial ended exactly two weeks from the day on which. Mayor Rich- ardson killed young Farrell Padgett. His defense was that Padgett had tried to lure away Mrs. Richardson, had threatened to kill Richardson to accomplish his purpose, and that the mayor believed he was acting in self- defense when he fired the shot that killed the youth. The shooting oc- curred at a dance. Padgett was 23 years old. The mayor is 37. Dry Workers Spend More Than 23,000 There is still $13.90 left in the treas- ury of the Douglas county dry cam- paign, according to a statement filed with ‘Harley G. Moorhead, election commissoiner, by W. T. Graham. The disbursements, are given as $23,322.09 and the receipts $23,335.99. The Hughes Alliance of Nebraska spent $11,395.75, accordin%vto the ex- pense account filed by W. G. Ure, treasurer. The receipts were $13,000— $2,000 from the National Hughes alli- ance and $11,000 from the national re- publican committee. Henry C. Murphy, unsuccessful can- didate for county attorney, spent $560. Additional expense accounts filed in the office of the election commissioner show what the fa"owing candidates spent: Michael L. Endres, county treasurer-elect, $487.92; H. J. Hackett, defeated for state legislature, $64.75; William P. Lynch, defeated for judge of the municipal court, $150.96; Rob- ert Smith, re-elected clerk of the dis- trict court, $327.20; H. W. Reed, de- feated for police judge, $105; Robert W. Patrick, unsuccessful candidate for judfic of the municipal court, $242.62; Arthur S. Churchill, defeated for judge of the district court, $15, Police Judges Toss Coin For Choice of Courts Police Judges-elect Madden and Fitzgerald, carrying out their agree- ment to alternate service uptown and on the South Side, flipped a coin Sat- urday for choice. Fitzgerald won, and will take the court at the central sta- tion for the first three months of the new year. Madden will serve the same time on the South Side, and then they'll change, and each alternate three months will see the same switch. John Norman Guilty 0f Second Degree Murder Fremont, Neb., Nov. 18.—(Special Telegram.)—After being out for less than two hours, the jury returned a verdict finding John Norman guilty of murder in the second degree. Nor- man shot and killed Henry Moore at a rooming house conducted by Nor- man in the south part of Fremont, September 30. Not Quite Down and Out. Many a man feels that he is down and out when as a matter of fact he still has in him many years of good service that can be brought out by proper treatment. Stomach trouble often makes one despondent. It hits him where he lives, saps his strength and energy and makes him feel like giving up. Give him a few doses of Chamberlain’s Tablets to improve his digestion and invigorate his liver and bowels, and in most cases re- covery is prompt and effectual.—Adv.

WHAT'S IN A NAME? | WORKING 10 WIPE PERHAPS A STORY Farnam Street Resurrects Memory of Banker and Doug- las Smacks of ‘‘Stephen A.” HARNEY IS MILITARISTIC By A. R. GROH. Why was Farnam street named Farnam street? And after whom were Dodge, Douglas, Harney, How- ard and other streets named? Listen, and this Well of Wisdom will explain to you. Farnam street was named after Henry Farnam, a wealthy banker of Hartford, Conn. He was one of the principal financiers of the Rock Island railroad, which had reached as far west as Jowa City when Omaha’s first streets were named. He was a friend of Dr. Enos Lowe, who got the street named for him. Thus did Omaha escape having its main thoroughfare named Main street. But suppose this great Rock Island financier's name had been Sznbolowzski! Think of what might have befallen us! Dodge street was named for A. C. })gdge, once a great man in Iowa af- airs. Lincoln’s Opponent. Douglas street was named after Stephen A., “the Little Giant,” whom Abraham Lincoln defeated for the presidency, And right here it is noteworthy that all the streets of the original Omaha that were named aft- er statesmen were named after demo- cratic statesmen. Think of the dense darkness that must have veiled the minds of the people in those days! Just think of -it! Harney street took its name from General Harney, stationed in the west when Omaha was started, Colonel Howatd, the father-in-law of Henry Farnam, was honored in the christening of Howard street. President Andrew Jackson, of course, is responsible for Jackson air- | street. Doubt About Jones. There is a little doubt about Jones street, there being many Joneses. A. D. Jones platted the original town and sotne say he honored himself and the whole Jones family. Others hold that it was named. for George W. Jones, an Iowa public man. General Henry Leavenworth, who gained military distinction in the war of 1812, was recognized in the nam- ing of that street. He founded Fort Leavenworth, Kan. Mason street was named for Judge Mason of the Iowa bench, and Marcy for William L. Marcy, a democratic statesman born in Massa- chusetts in 1812, Pacific street was named for the Pacific Ocean. Pierce street was named for Frank- lin Pierce, who was president in 1854 and signed the enabling act by which Nebraska became a territory. Capitol avenue was so named be- cause the original capitol, later the old high school, stood on that street. Bankers' Sentiment. A firm of bankers who came here from Davenport, Ia, secured the naming of one street after their old home town. Chicago was named for the Windy City. Lewis Cass, secretary of state un- der President Buchanan, was honored in the naming of Cass street. The adventurers en route to Cali- fornia used to land from the river at the foot of what is now California street. Hence its name. Webster street, of course, was named after the great Daniel. Burt, Cuming and Izard streets were named in honor of Nebraska's first three territorial governors, all democrats. Sherman avenue was named after General Sherman, who made a short, terse defirition of war. Automobile Used to Catch Runaway Horse After it had injured several persons who were not quick enough to get out of the way, a runaway horse careening north on Eighteenth street was finally caught by Harry Cannon, 2589 Pratt street, last night. Cannon, in an auto, gave chase, and finally passed it. Then he slowed down in front of it and gradually caused the animal to stop, when ‘it was then put under restraint. J. W. Blackwell, 4111 North Twen- ty-eighth street was driving the ani- mal at Eighteenth and Clark streets, when it suddenly plunged forward, throwing him from his seat. He fell, breaking his right arm and suffering internal injuries. Mike Daly, Flor- ence, was knocked down by the horse, and so was a woman, whose name was not learned. New Head for the Twelve Apostles of Mormon Church Salt Lake City, Utah, Nov. 19.— Through the death of Apostle Francis M. Lyman, early this morning, Apostle Heber J. Grant automatically becomes president of the quorum of the twelve apostles of the Morman church, by virtue of his seniority in ordination. The death of Apostle Ly- man folowed a two days’ illness from pneumonia, contracted Sunday. The vacancy in the quorum will be filled by selection by the remaining members of the council. It is un- likely, however, that the selection will be announced before the April con- ference of the membership of - the church. Students Wash Marred Rival College Walls Denver, Nov. 19.—E. B. McBride, president of the student body at the University of Colorado and a score of volunteers, went to Golden, Colo., to- day and washed the walls of the School of Mines’ building. Yesterday a group of University of Colorado students journed to Golden from Boulder and painted the walls with uncomplimentary phrases. A large crowd of Golden students watched the Boulder men at work to- day, cheering them enthusiastically. Tres Coughs and Colds at Once.

FIGHTING RENEWED QorQQ 0UT THE DEFICIT| ON BANKS OF ANCRE Ewvery Night For Constipation Young Women's Ohristian As- sociation Rapidly Reducing Existing Indebtedness. AIMS OF THE ORGANIZATION Ninety women, working three and a half days last week, brought §4,640 into the Young Women's Christian association fund, the goal for which is $20,000. The secretarial team, cap- tained by the employment secretary, Miss Grace Oddie, brought in $346 as a result of Saturday's efforts. The campaign for funds is an annual event to make up the budget deficit. The Young Women's Christian as- sociation of Omaha has 1,500 young women, mostly employed, coming to the building daily. The needs of the girls are met through the different de- partments—physical, educational, re- ligious, extension, employment bureau, girls' work, social, traveler's aid and the cafeteria. More than 1,000 girls were reached through the physical de- partment last year. Educational Department. The educational department offers classes in cooking, sewing, millinery, first aid, home nursing, practical Eng- lish for foreign girls, Spanish, French, German, literature and current events, These classes give an opportunity to the girl who has had to leave school at an early age to go to work; then there are other girls who want to ad- vance in their work through the voca- tional classes. Extension Work. In Omaha the extension work is carried into four industrial centers and two commercial centers at the noon hour besides two community centers. The girls are formed into clubs and meet at the association building for classes and social affairs. The Many.Centers club of the depart- ment is planning to give some special service at Thlnksgivin% time, The girls' work department, for girls from 12 to 18 years of age, now has six Camp Fire Girls' groups besides a number of other clubs, with a total enrallment of 410. Free Bible classes are offered through the religious work depart- ment in both Old and New Testament history. Vesper services are held every Sunday afternoon at 4:30, open to all girls o{the city. This service is always followed by a social hour. Home-Cooked Food. The cafeteria provides wholesome, home-cooked food to from 700 to 800 a day. A large and comfortable rest room is also provided. Two protective agencies of the Young Women’s Christian assqciation are the traveler's aid and the employ- ment bureau. A third one very much needed is a Young Women's Christian association home for girls, especially for thpse on small salaries. The Young Women's Christian as- sociation traveler's aid secretary at the Union station renders assistance to over 4,000 women annually. The employment department protects the girl who comes to the city seeking work by finding employment for her in the right kind of places. From 100 to 150 are placed in positions each month, New Secretary at Work. Three of the older clubs of the asso- ciation are the Business Women's club, the In His Name circle and the Athletic club, composed of seventy- five girls interested in the physical de- partment and outdoor activities. Miss Etta Pickering, the new gen- eral secretary comes to the city full of enthusiasm for the extension ofithe work and desires, with the co-opera- tion of its citizens, to make the Young Women’s Christian association work meet the needs of every girl in Greater Omaha. Pulmotor Saves Life 0f Gas Heater Victim Only prompt application of the po- lice pulmotor last night, prevented another name being added to the list of gas-heater tragedies in Omaha, when John Anderson, bricklayer, liv- ing @t 2531 Parker street, was found unconscious by the proprietress of the rooming house, Mrs, H. A. Beitel- man. Anderson's room was heated by a gas burning contrivance, which in some way developed a leak in the feed pipe. When found, he was un- conscious already, though he had been in the room only a few mo- ments. Sox Loaded for Soldiers Down Upon Mexican Border Washington, Nov. 19.—Thousands of socks stuffed with Christmas gifts are to be presented to the American| __ troops at the border and in Mexico through the Red Cross.
