Omaha, Neb.--Secret service men, post-office inspectors, Union Pacific detectives und the police and sheriff's deputies of Omaha are following every clew that may lend to the capture of the bandits who held up and robbed the limited train three miles west of the city late Saturday night Two empty mail pouches taken from the train were found some dis­ tance from the point wh<?re the rob­ bery occurred. They had been cut open and their contents removed, the outlaws overlooking only one pack­ age. One report says the robbers got $200,000. The empty mail pouches were found near Forty-third and* Jackson streets, which leads the police to believe that the robbers came to the city after holding up the train. AH four of the men wore long rain coats and their features were entirely masked, giving no opportunity for members of the train crew to identify them. Every town in the country has been notified and sheriffs of surrounding counties have been keeping a lookout for strangers. The post-office depart­ ment has also taken steps to aid in the search. What means of escape the robbers selected is indefinite, but the authori­ ties believe they had either an auto­ mobile or a fast horse. The robbers evidently got on the train at some town west of here. The hold-up occurred in a deep cut along the recently constructed Lane cut-off. The robbers climbed over the tank and forced the engineer to* stop his train and then proceeded to the mail car. The clerks were forced to open the door and hand out a number of pouches of registered mail. Having secured the bags, they hurried away in a southerly direction and permitted the train to proceed. The passengers were not •molested, and as soon as the robbers left the scene of the hold-up the train pro­ ceeded to this city. A big squad of police hurried to the scene and quick­ ly started in pursuit of the bandits. There were eight clerks on the mail car, and they were forced to open the door. The chief clerk was singled out and asked to point out the regis­ tered mail. This he did, and the robbers gath­ ered up seven pouches and the leader then remarked: "This is all we can get into our au­ tomobile." A continuous fusillade of shooting was kept up during the robbery, evi­ dently to intimidate passengers and crew. The train w$s detained but 15 min­ utes and left Omaha for Chicago on time. ' DICKINSON BACK FROM CANAL : , . ! V ^ I / WAR SECRETARY ILL BUT SHOWS 1 IMPROVEMENT. Says Mi it Well Pleased with Prof of Construction on the . "Big Ditch." 'J- -V; LEAVES FAMILY FOR DOG. One of the scientists announces that overeating as well as excessive drink­ ing will produce a red, bulbous nose, ftat that doesn't help much. It is about as foolish to overeat as to drink to excess. New York is to have a 31-story hotel. The builders probably cling to the theory that it will not hurt any more, in ease of fire, to jump from the thirty-first story than it would to leap from the seventeenth floor. " Children are so unpopular with land­ lords that an Illinois legislator has introduced a bill which provides that It shall be unlawful and to be against public policy for any landlord to dis­ criminate against families where there •re children under 14 years old. It is also declared to be equally reprehen­ sible for any landlord to insert a Clause forfeiting a lease in case a baby is born to the tenant family or a child is adopted. It is a safe bet that this man is a father and is not a, landlord. Illinois Farmer Abandons Wife and Children After Quarrel Over a Flopeared Hound. Fairfield, 111.--Choosing between his wife, the mother of his three children, and a worthless hound, dog, with pendant ears, Henry H. Traue, a farmer five miles north of this city, has chosen to cleave unto the latter and forsake the former. As a result a divorce suit was filed in the circuit court here, also asking alimony. The Traues quarreled over the dog, the wife insisting that it was a useless member of the household. Agreeing to sell the animal, Mr. and Mrs. Traue came to this city and Mrs. Traue was left at a dental office While a pur­ chaser for the dog was sought. Immediately starting back home, Traue is said to have loaded up some of the best of the furniture and driven in a wagon back to Straussburg, their former home. A suit was first filed for wife and child abandonment. New Bedford is again restored to the map by the report of the master of a whaling ship that was fitted out in that port and has returned with a record. The ship -has brought back to New Bedford more than 2,000 bar­ rels of whale oil of a value of more than $40,000. This means probably that Capt. Hagerty's crew captured 4p, or 50 "leviathans of the deep," which is pretty good business when one con­ siders that the whale oil fishing has been regarded as largely a thing of the past.

New York.--Although proposing to discuss nothing more revolutionary than the "Modern Drama as a Dis seminator of Radical Thought," Emma Goldman was prevented by the police from addressing a crowd of several hundred persons who assembled in hall in Harlem to hear her. The police had difficulty in dispers­ ing those who ha,d paid for admission to the hall, and in one instance, least, had to resort to blows. Two ar rests were made. . Washington. -- Forced to cut short his inspection .of the Panama canal by illness, Secretary of War Dick­ inson has returned to Washing­ ton. Although weak from his illness, he is improving. On the voyage home he was unable to leave his berth In the yacht Mayflower The secretary was standing on the bridge of the Mayflower with Mrs. Dickinson and the other members of the party, which included Brig. Gen. J. Franklin Bell, Dr. and Mrs. W. O.. Ewlng, James Ross Todd, Henry D. Lindsley, Mrs. Owsley and Lincoln R. Clark, when the little vessel arrived at the navy yard. He was first ashore and while showing signs of his illness, he appeared to be improved. He as­ sured the waiting reporters that he would be all right as soon as he had regained his lost strength. Mr. Dickinson expressed pleasure at the progress being made in the con­ struction of the Panama canal, but when asked regarding conditions in Cuba, the Mayflower having touched there on the return trip from the canal zone, he laughingly replied: "I only saw Cuba through a porthole." Entering a carriage, the secretary and Mrs. Dickinson were driven at once to Fort Myer, where they were the guests of (Jen. Bell. The trip to Panama which Mr. Dickinson has just completed was made in consonance with President Taft's policy of having the members of his cabinet become personally fa­ miliar with the various projects under their direction. CONSERVATION WORK URGED. Joint Committee Proposes a Plan to the Commissions in the Va­ rious States. Washington.--Inventories of the nat- i^ral resources of every state and ter­ ritory are proposed in a plan just an­ nounced by the joint committee of conservation in this city. The joint committee is national headquarters for the conservation movement, and has offices in the Wyatt building. All of the 48 big national organizations now working with the joint commit­ tee through their conservation com­ mittees are to be asked to help, each in its own special field. The plan contemplates the practi­ cal application by the states and na­ tional organizations of the conserva­ tion principles declared by the gov­ ernors and presidents of the great national organizations in their notable conference at the White House a year ago. Letters explaining the plan have been sent out to the chairmen of the official conservation commissions which the governors of 38 states have appointed, and letters to the national organizations will follow. The joint committee suggests early meetings of the state conservation commissions to take up, first, the most pressing conservation problems in the respective states. For instance, in Louisiana it is the terrific waste of natural gas which the state conserve* tion commission is already trying to stop. In Oregon a pressing question has been water power, which is also a leading issue just now in Michigan and Wisconsin. In many states it is the forest question. The question of the conservation of water power takes a front rank in a great many states, and it is becoming more and more of a general issue. R00SEVELTS SLAY BISON. Ex-President Bags One Alone and He and Kermit Kill Another Together. Nairobi, British East Africa.-- Theodore Roosevelt and his son Kermit are continuing their hunting excursions from their camp on the Heatley ranch on the Nairobi river. Two bull buffaloes have fallen before their guns. One, the bigger of the two, was brought down by Mr. Roose­ velt alone, while the other was bagged by Mr. Roosevelt and Kermit together. Nairobi, British East Africa. -- Theodore Roosevelt has begun his hunting expedition from the Ju Ja ranch of George McMillan, whose guest he is. He went out and bagged a female rhinoceros. The fi^st shot wounded her in the shoulder and the animal fled to the bushes. Mr. Roose­ velt followed on horseback and six more shots were required to bring her down. The head and skin weighed 532 pounds. t.: tt?** ' -71^ - < W:XX ft ;•? *h,i &• nBBBOaa m fTvn-rt A Mexican aeronaut invented an airhsip that went up fine. .But, when It came time to come down, he found he had no mbchanism for descend­ ing, and stuck aloft.

London. -- The earl of Ronald- shay's apology to the countess of Granard (who was Miss Beatrice Mills of New York) for publicly calling her "a dumped American heiress who has been fortunate enough to secure a title," has not even the merit of spon­ taneity. The apology was made in deference to the king's express wish. Were it -not for the American peer­ ess and the American "millionairess" that luxurious circle of English so­ ciety patronized by the king could not exist a month. So King Edward frowns on anything that might dis­ courage English peers from marrying wealthy American women, or any­ thing likely to render English society distasteful to American women. Lord Ronaldshay, eldest son and heir of the marquis of Zetland, be­ longs to an influential family. Ronald­ shay is the unionist member of the house of commons for the Hornsey division of Middlesex. Thither went the countess of Granard and opened a bazar organized by Lord Ronald- shay's Liberal opponent. The count­ ess, who has been active on behalf of her husband's party, spent money lav­ ishly at the bazar, and consequently made a deep impression on the voters. Lord RonaldsJiay, much irritated, made his insulting remarks about the countess speaking in a North London suburb. DECISION AGAINST NEGRO.

George Rogers Clark, the revolution­ ary soldier and explorer, an heroic bronze statue, was unveiled Saturday in the presence of an immense con­ course of people. Gov.

New York. -- A negro and a white man do not suffer equal humilia­ tion in the eyes of law for false arrest, according to the appellate division of the supreme court, which sustained an order of Justice Dugro of the supreme court, reducing the amount of dam­ ages awarded George Griffin, a Pull­ man porter, from $2,500 to $300. The negro was arrested In Montreal, charged with stealing a pocketbook, but the charge was not substantiated and he was released. He brought suit against Daniel H. Brady, a New York manufacturer, who caused his arrest. In his order, Justice Dugro said: "While in some senses the negro un­ der the law is just as good as a man as the president of the United States, it would be a bad argument to say that he is just as good in some re­ spects. The damages in a case of this kind depend on a man's standing and circumstances. If he is colored, that fact should be considered." An experienced bartender testified" In court that the man who plays the slot machines "loses oftener than he wins." To establish the truth of this theory in a practical way !b the only purpose the slot machine has in ex­ isting. Band* Robbed of $3,500. Lisbon, N.

Mr. Mulligan and Mr. Zimmerman were both present at the unveiling. Standing on the bro* of a hill from which may be seen the expanse of the Mississippi, the statue depicts the American leader in a pose which is thoughtful, gentle and yet heroic. It represents him as clad in the uniform of a continental general, as he was when he captured Kaskaskia in 1778. SHERMAN FOR GOOD ROADS Vice-President in Address to National Congress Favors Improvement of Public Highways. Baltimore, Md. -- With a speech by Vice-President James S. Sher­ man, the National Good Roads Con­ gress held its final session. "I am interested in any meeting," said Mr. Sherman, "which has for its object the promotion of good roads, good streets and good highways in general. It is the ability to transport our goods which makes our country so prosperous. "We should devote our time and en­ ergies to our commercial industries and our internal improvements. Our highways have not been developed. The roads of England, France and Switzerland put our roads to shame.*' Memorial to Brave Explore#.'
