Bohemian Historian
Tells of Visit and
Reception in Omaha
An account of his visit and reception In
Omahn Is contained In a brochure which
has been published recently by Count
Luetzow, tho famous Bohemian hl.itorian,
who was entertained by the Bohemian
of Omaha last year. The title of the
pamphlet Is "My Impressions ot
America," and the reference to Omaha
comes immediately alter nn account ot
his visit to Lincoln, nnd reads as follows:
"We hud Intended to go toMlnucsotn and
to spend but a couple of hours In Omaha,
whcTO a few countrymen wished to brltiir
us a greeting. But nt the last moment
our plans hnd to bo changed. At tho
station in Omaha we met a large number
of Bohemians, who greeted us most
heartily and, who Informed me that A ban
quet had been prepared in our honor at
tho largest hotel In tho city. Such hearty
hospitality as this could not he refused,
and wo betook ourselves In our traveling
clothes our baggage had already been
sent to Minneapolis to the dining room
of the hotel, which had been decoruted
with Bohemian and American flags. As
always, many speeches were held, and I
expressed my thankfulness, as I must
confess, much overcome 6y my feelings
and I emphasized once, more tho promi
nent portion which the Bohemians of
Nebraska had won for themselves by
their Industry, endurance and energy.
"On the following day I had my single
unpleasant experience on my American
trip. As we hart remained In Omaha
longer than had been arranged for, on
account ot the hospitality of the Bo-
hemians there, we had to continue our
Journey as early as 5 o'clock the follow
ing morning. On leaving1 tho hotel I had
the misfortune of slipping- on the lc
which had been covcrod by the last
snow, and spraining1 my foot. In splto of
It I continued my Journey, though with
much pain, to Minneapolis, where we ar
rived In the evening considerable 6ehlud
time."
