LB HISTORY WRITTEN DATLY ON STREETS Life’s Tragedies Lurk in Com. monest Happenings Which Get Little Attention. GRIEF IN PIGEON FAMILY By A. R. GROH, Today we will contemplate a few strange sights observed in the down- town streets of Omaha within the last few days. I saw an elderly man with long ey hair and a sadly solemn serious He wore a long, blue, army coat and he bore aloft in his hand a square board on which was painted the legend, “Have Faith in God,” and on the reverse side, “God 1s Love.” He looked neither to the right nor to the left, but walked slowly along the sidewalk near the curb, Sorrow Among Birds. Scattered straw and twigs and sev- eral little broken eggs lay on the side- walk at the corner of the Saunders- Kennedy building, Eighteenth and Douglas streets. It marked a tragedy among the feathered people of the city. High up on the ledge of the build- ing two pigeons walked back and forth in great excitement. Evidently they were father and mother of the ies, which shed on the side- What th re saying to each in pigeon English or what gricf agitated their little breasts I can only imagine. The broom of a janitor or the shovel of a roofer may have pre- cipiated the tragedy. That also 1 know not. Passers-by only saw the crushed eggs and the shattered nest. A man drove a one-horse wagon past Seventeenth and Farnam streets. The wagon was loaded with potatoes, about twenty-five bushels of them. It was without guard, though, for all I know, the driver may have had a brace of fistols under his coat. The priceless vegetables ‘were so exposed that anyone might have easily sneaked up behind and stolen several of them. Boys and Indians. The apparent owner of all these potatoes was poorly dressed. But then, our richest people are often the most modest in their appearances, I don’t know whither he was taking them. Maybe to a safety deposit vault, Two Indians wearing their full re- galia of feathers and beads, walked north on Sixteenth street, trailed by a gang of excited boys. The big bucks stopped suddenly and the boys, startled, scattered in at least three di- rection, Then the stolid red men con- tinued their progress and the small boy army quickly recovered its “morale” and hurried after them. Trained Bear, A big Italian with a full-sized cin- namon bear was in our city a few days ago. Bruin was muzzled and led by a chain. His master carried a long pole and a tambourine. He would stop, gather a crowd and then take a collection of nickels after which Bruin would stand up on his hind legs, stick his nose up in the air and moyi WAR AND THE COST Boys’ Shoes The fact that millions of shoemakers in Europe have laid down the awl to take up the sword has overtaxed American shoe factories. The result is higher prices, but TEEL HOD HOES remain the same price to you, in spite of the in- creased cost to us.

He would also shake hands with those that wished this honor. (The bear shook hands, not the [talian). A “strange sight” which I observed about three weeks ago, may be of in- terest to candidates. Two boys were going along distributing the cards of some political aspirant. They paused at a sewer manhole and consulted a moment. Then they dropped a couple of hundred cards down. But there was no water to wash them out of sight. So the resourceful youths re- paired to the opposite corner where, behind a bill board, they built a bon= fire and fed the flames with hundreds of political cards from their canvas bags, thus saving much walking and littering up of the streets. Sultan Has Photo Taken; Will Be at Pet Stock Show “Sultan,” a Persian cat owned by Mrs. Agnes Gover, came up to The Bee office to have his picture taken. He was brought up in his royal equip- age, a market basket, “Sultan” speaks nothing but the cat language and so his life is shrouded in the mystery of the orient. Mrs. Gover simply knows that he came hither from Los Angeles. Where he aboded before that or at the feet of what Persian kings his ancestors basked and blinked their eyes throughout unnumbered «centuries only “Sultan” knows and he tells not, He blinks calmly in the bustle of western civilization and seems to look with disapproval upon the folly of the dollar-mad, rushing occident. “Sultan” did not submit without protest to the camera. Just when Herman Schenfeld would get him nicely posed he would jump down and run under a chair or a developing tank or back of a cabinet of negatives. He weighs fifteen pounds, includ- ing his big tail. He bears himself with imperial pride, a haughty aloof- ness, like a prince held captive in some foreign land. He submits to the caresses of the “unbelicvers,” but in his eyes seems to dwell a memory of the plains of Khorassan and Irak-Ajemi, and he seems to linger with pensive sadness on the glories of his ancestors in the reign of Feth-Ali, of Darius, of Xerxes and of Cyrus, “Sultan” is to be exhibited at the pet show next week. % Smell of Garlic is Rich Man's Perfume‘ Horrors! The last straw is the high cost of living has been reached. Gate lic, the national dish of Italy, has increased more than 100 per cent and there is every indication that it will go higher. Commission men attribute the increase to declines in garlic im- ports from Italy. In fact it is next to impossible to buy Italian garlic on the market. An inferior grade of garlic is grown in Louisiana, but dealers claim that there is little de- mand for the homie-grown vnriet{ because it hasn’t near the strengtl of the Italian product, Home-grown garlic is retailing at 15/ cents a pound, while the foreign vegetable is selling at 30 and 40 cents. Mrs. Léwis Comes to the South Social Settlement Mrs, Elizabeth Lewis, a social work- er from Kansas City, has come to take charge of the Social Settlement in its new South Side location at Twenty- ninth and Q streets. Mrs. John W, Robbins, the president, announces the opening of activities at the setttle- ment Sunday afternoon. There will be a flag-raising; Miss Jo Redfield will tell stories and musical numbera will be given, Until recently the Social Settle- ment was operated on south Thir- teenth street, but the need was de- clared greater in the South Side, so the institution was moved.
