The storm of yesterday drove all ot
tho Moose of eastern Nebraska Into
Omaha and last night they herded In the
big lodge (and club rooms at 41R South
seventeenth street, where they will re
main until after Wednesday of next
week.
I.at night thcro were some COO Mooso
In tho corral, and flvo or 'six times as
many men and women went to the place
to look In on them and make merry.
The Mooro in Omaha nt this time are
not of tho variety known as bull moosers,
nor aro they the kind that once ran
rampant through, the forests ot the
wilderness, They are members of the
Loyal Order of Moose, an organization
along tho lines of the Odd Fellows nnd
the Klks.
Tho Omaha Moose lodge Is compara
tively new, but It' already hns DUO mem
bers, and the Intention Is to Increnso this
membership Just tenfold before tho end
of the present year. The Omaha lodgo
has taken a long lease on the building
formerly occupied by the Uacqut ""lub.
Just south ot the Young Men Christian
association building. The building has
been renovated, remodeled and refur
nished and now, though not as large as
some, It Is one of the finest appointed
club hbuscs In tho city.
Tho Moose lodgo has a splendid' lodge
room on the first floor, besides club, re
ception and reading rooms. In tho base
ment thcro Is a cafe, buffet and billiard
rooms.
It Is a fair that Is bringing so many
Nebraska nnd Omaha Moose .to the club
rooms, right nt this time, and though the
weather was against It there was a
crowd In attendance last night. There
wore men, women nnd'chlldrcn, and they
all had tho time ot their lives. Omaha
merchants have donated liberally.
Pretty girls are everywhere present to
Induce visitors to Invest In tho many
articles for sale In tho booths, and there
Is no excuse for ono to go away cmpty
handed unless tho pocketbook has been
forgotten and left nt home.
That perfect rdcr may be maintained, a
Jail has been located In tho big ball room,
half a dozen policemen stationed about
tho hall and a Judgo over present to Im
pose a fine or a life sentence In the
dungeon upon conviction of any lnfrao
tlon of the laws governing the fair.
Ijit night there were a number of
arrests and fines Imposed. One man
was fined $23 and costs for simply re
marking that ho was glad It snowed.
Another wan fined $10 because ho pub
licly nhnounced that he was a mooser
but not a Mooso. In no caso was ball
accepted. Tho culprits wcro kept In Jail
until the fines were paid.

THOMPSON SAFE AT HOME
AFTER TRIP FROM MEXICO
1.INCOUN, Neb., Feb. 22, David IS,

sador to Mexico, arrived, tn Lincoln to
night direct from Mexico City. When Mr,
Thompson left the capital tho fight be
tween the soldiers ot Madero and Felix
DJas was still In progress,
The residence of Mr. Thompson, 400
feet from the United States embassy.
was In tho' direct lino ot fire, nnd ho
believes tho house was struck by not less
than a thousand bullets and one shell
Ho found departure from the battle
swept city a difficult matter, and once
outside tho city Itself progress was dlfft
cult as rebel b controlled most of the
trains nnd would not allow them to be
operated for passenger traffic. Part of
tho trip was by ox team wagon,
'When he reached Matamoras .lie found
tho rebels held the rallroaa from there
north. A wagon carried him to Wo
Grande and at that point ho was able to
secure an automobile to take him to the
American line.
Mr, Thompson Is unwilling to discuss
the political nspects of the country or Its
future. He served as ambassador during
the presidency ot Porflrlo Diaz, and his
acquaintance with Francisco Madero Is
limited. Qenornl Huerta, Mr- Thompson
said, he regarded as a strong man, prob
ably Inclined to policies similar to Por-
" "
maey.
Huerta, he believed, had a strong fol
lowing. Tho business element ot tho
country, said Mr. Thompson, demands
peace, and will probably be loyal to the
leader who can bring It about.

How to live decently with threo small
children and her husband, who as a roust
about In one of the packing houses makes
13 cents an hour, proved too big a prob
lem for Mrs. Mabel Casey, 2 years old,
So she drank carbolic acid and killed her
self last evening at 6:30 o'clock In a room
ing houso at 333 North Twenty-fourth
street, South Omahu.
Tho dead woman had been despondent
for some days, according to neighbors.
Her husband, Ed Casey, a hard-working
laboring man, had Just returned from
work.
"Smile," ho said to the despondent wife
and mother. Thon he stepped out In the
hall for a minute.
"Oood-bye, Ed," came n voice trom the
room, and when Casey rushed back his
wife was beyond tho reach ot aid. Dr.
A. H. Koenlg waa called, but arrived
after death had taken place.
vUndcrslied and Ill-nourished, Kd Casey,
the husband of tho dead woman, an
swerod the probing questions jot the police
in regard to the motlvo that caused his
wife to commit suicide. He sold It" was
awful hard to get along and that ho had
many debts which he thought worried his
wife. Ho said ho made JU.W a week on
full time. The couple had three children.
The eldest la 4 years ot age and the
youngest Is 3 months.
While Casey told his story to the police,
a woman neighbor, standing near the
body, said! "Ed, she's dead now. Hat
she loved another man. Bh'e got' a let
ter yesterday."
Casey's humped shoulders straightens!
as under a blow.
"It aha got a letter last night," he
said, "it was the first that I ever know
her to keep from me."
He seemed to think that the woman
I could not be blamed for being tempted
I away from a home where the struggle
for life was so hard.
Casey's eyes seem haunted and look
out from a fate that Is almost gaunt-
He said he had been brought up In nn
orphan asylum since the age ot 6 years.
'I've had a hurd time," he said in a
weary sort ot voice to Chief ot Po.'.ce
Brlggs.
'I work hard always and bring .l.e
money home, but somehow It don't seem
to go round.
"I always try to bo a man, ho con
tinued, "even though I am poor. But If
you have to take my children from rno
I hope you won t send them tc an
asylum or to a public Institution."
Chief ot Police Brlggs said he wculd
