AMERICAN VOLUNTEERS LEAD THE LIST Ulnnrr n( th linrrnck Our of the Most Snrrrfnl rtinctlnn ut the Sort Brer Carried Ont. Twelve o'clock, hist noon, of Thanksgiving day, was the hour set for the free din ner atr tho American Volunteer headquarter; 117 North Fifteenth stroot, but scores of those who had been bidden to the feast were forehanded nnd before Lieutenant Vlolot Bpono and her corps of assistants had begun to peal tho potatoes there wan an argregatlod of clamerous young appe tltea banked up against tho front door. From that time on the crowd took on accretions.

It was easily soon that the Afro-Americana predominated, for It had been given out that turkey would bo nerved, and tf there's anything a little negro boy likes better than 'possum, sweet potatoes and chlttllns, It's turkey. Then, aa the momenta dragged by fumes of the roast meat and aago dressing were wafted out over the transom and ho throng outside surged tumultously. Those who chmo first took up their stand on the threshold, and remained thero until pulled away by bigger boy. On the outskirts little girls romped, becaus. It wasn't ladylike to mingle with the rude boys In tbo crush.

Hnld on the Tables, At last an Incautious Volunteer on the Inside unlocked tho door, and tho next In-etant was almost born off his feet by the flying wedgo of "newsies" and bootblacks that pourod In from tho street. Thero was not a caso of dyspepsia In the crowd. Not ono of them needed a tonto or an nppettzer. It tho most ravenous company that ever fluttered tho handicraft of a cook, and tho way they charged tho brenstworka of that Volunteer turkey "would have won Waterloo for Napoleon. Tbo aontlncl nt the entrance called for reinforcements and with their nld forced tho door shut In tho face of a disappointed rabble.

all full!" ho shouted at them. "Your turn next!" Then Lloutonant E. S. McCoy said a blessing, mercifully brief, and tho feast wan on. For a halt hour tho big room teemed with Itisclothf odors, sounds of munching and pungent bit's of conversation.

Tedrow! I'nss th' stufflnl" piped small voice, Just after Lieutenant C. V. Btrayer had murmured, "They're off!" Then enmo such ejaculations aa these: "Wowl Petto'a ot nil tho plcgles!" "Say, mister, don't I git no applcsass?" "Nettle's' found two wishbones! No fair!" "Humph! Who wants spuds! Wo got ta-tera to hornet'' "Bay, Is your namo Jna? Well, then lay over and don't lean?" "A cut o' th' dnrk meat, pleaso." "I'nund hl back! llo'a chokln'l" "No fair throwln th' drumsticks!" "HoyJ Break away doro! (this from the pulNldo the door opened procarlous nix' Inches) youao goln to ohew all uayi Too tinny for Thank. And so It went, throughout the entlro llrsl "relay." There was' no doubt but that tho "guests" were ShanCltil.vbut-they" were too busy to know It. it was" very evident hIso that they wero all city ihlldren, be-caimo tho big bowl, of thick gravy that sot about wcro mystfcrlcs to them.

Most of them vouchsafed only a susrlclous glanci and passed thorn by, putting piipper and salt on tholr potatoes Instead, but ono little lad called "Dago" was not to bu cheated out of anything 'lhat was going simply because he didn't -understand It. "When tho bowl camo hla way he deposited It on his plate, cruramod bread It and nto It for noup. And ho said It was "bully." About this time tho mandolin and guitar quartet struck up "Tho Irish Washor Woman," nnd tho maxlllarles of the diners bad to movo faster to keep time to It. "Hey, pass do cheese!" shouted a little epicure named Sammlo fllmon, as ho contemplated his cut of npplo pie. "Ilalnt no cheese," was tho retort of hla neighbor.

"Humph! Who ever heard of plo without cheeso!" and ho shoved tho pastry contemptuously away. Another lad, less particular, ato tho dainty and Just as tho last mouthful disappeared the cheoso came along, and then Sammlo told tho lad ho would meet him In tbo alley after dinner. A little negro lad who answers to the pround patronymic of Clyde Clifton Taylor, leaned back In his chair with languid luxuriance and beckoned to Alde-de-Camp qeorge W. Andrlck to approach. He spoko not a' word as tho officer bent over him, but went through a pantomime that told tho story.

Pointing with ono hand to tho pllo ot turkey bones on his plato, ho mado a caressing motion with tho other over his stouiapb, which' was bowed out Ilko an alderman's. The look of "seraphlo satisfac tion nnd contentment on the lad's face at that moment was a Study for a painter. Then another relay of appetites was ad mitted, followed by another and another. Ijite'r In the day a great many old peopto wero 'fed. It Is estimated that altogether fully 200 persons partook of tho hospitality of the Volunteers.

Here Is tho bill ot fare Turkoy with sage dressing and gravy, bread and butter, roast beef, noston baked beans, prunes, apple, apple pie, pickles, mashed potatoes, cheese, apple sauce, coffeo with milk and sugar, IlCHldes this feast tbo volunteers cent out 130 baskots containing dressed Chickens, bread, vegetables and fruit, each Invoicing Jl." These were dispatched by messenger to the. homes ot the city's poorest poor, names aud addresses ot whom had been furnlshod by. committees ot church and charity work Is estimated that 1,509 persons were fed by this means, TONY GIVES THE BOYS A FEED Italian Fruit Vender Take (lanv Crippled "Xewslea" Into Ills 111 llcnrt. "Tony" Is an Italian who wears ear' rings nd sells fruit on a Fqrnaui street corner He Is swarthy, and ho wears a red girdle Just a bit suggestive ot tho comlo opera brigand, but his Instincts aro apparently ntitln lifinl. Ami Vt tntttrAilMn pie's physical needs slucere.

For Tony did bis share la making this Thanksgiving day what It wis Intended to bo. Ho cave a dinner; not a scven-courie affair, but very substantial meal, and he had tor hla Invited guests nearly a dozen boys ot the street, with awesome appetite and tow opportunities to fully gratify them. There was "Trilby," a lad with pitifully distorted ankle and feet, and "Wingless," v. ho lost aa arm In a street car accident three years ago, and "Spots," 'the wonderfully freckled little ron of the old sod; and "Shorty" and "Pete" and "Muggins," and Jusl "de kids." Theywent to Tony's home as soon as tho demand -for morning papers and chrysanthemums was; supplied and Tony was his owp butler and his own receiving committee, as well as host. Mrs.

Tony was In the lean-to kitchen with her sleoves up and her hair down, nnd she had been there so long and had been so Industrious while she was there that dinner was ready early. Tony took the head of the table and the crippled boys got the two choirs next to him. Tho other boys balanced themselves on upturned fruit boxes. Mrs. Tony stood up to watch tho boiling pots and the dog.

No ono but Tony and Tony's wlto may ever know all that was served at that meal, for "Muggins," whom the boys appointed to "tell the polpers" about It, couldn't name a single article on tho blll-of-fare. He could only describe them as "some long stringy stuff with cheese In it," or as "the hottest soup whatever or as "some kind ot soft meat with onions enough over it to flag a dray." At the last, Tony served each boy with a very little ot tho contents of, a long, dark bottle and then ho made a npeech thirteen words long, and "Muggins" made a speech almost halt that long and was so frustrated when ho sat down that he tipped over his box and the dog barked at him and tho dinner broke up. For obvious reasoos Tony couldn't lead his guests Into the con servatory or the music room, so he took them over to his frnlf stand and gave each an orango as a parting favor. Tony doesn't know It, but "de gang" met fifteen minutes later on another corner and thero made plans for a certain society event of Importance, to transpire Christmas day CITV CllAHITIKS It A VIS A IH'SV TIME. Their Distribution of Provision.

Makes the Morning Fairly f.tvely. Owing to the Imperative condition ot tho Associated Charities, It remained for Dean Fair, Mrs. Pear man nnd a few others to form a substitute organization, which they styled the City Charities, to provide Thanksgiving dinners for the several hun dred of tho city's poor, who, but for tho efforts ot such friends, would know little dlfferenco between Thanksgiving and any other day. For a fortnight past they have solicited clothing and provisions, all ot which were gathered In yesterday and gotten ready for the distribution, which occurred trom ono of tho store rooms In tho lower part of the building formerly occupied by the Child Saving Institute at eighteenth and St. Mary'a avenue.

Klght o'clock was the tlmo announced for the doora to open, hut long before that hour a motley assembly ot a hundred or more men, women and children, chiefly tho two last named, earh with a basket, had arrived, and stood fthlv-erlng about tho entrance, if possible, they were llttlo more thinly clad than usual and there was a noticeable presence of tod dlers. When tho doors were at last opened thero wan a rush for tho long counter which stood across tho rear of tho room, and a lively skirmish for places In the front row, In which the dodging propcnsltlCB of the children were woll matched with the su perlor strength of their oltJers, and when tho crowd hart been restored to some semblance of order tho counter line positions were about equally divided between them. Then began tho process 'of ascer taining Bomethlntr of Hi, anollcantn that Justice might bo dono all, each basket tielng filled with chicken, potatoes, bread, coffee, sugar and the customary components ot the Thanksgiving; dinner, nnd ns It was handed to Its owner ho passed out to make room tor the next one. All morning this continued, tho steady arrival of children from all quarters of tho city maintaining nn averngfl of fifty or sixty endeavoring to push to the front or see aomo friend do so. In tho mcnntlmo many of the early ar rivals had Hot down their backets to wait for aomo less punctual trleud still vorklnk for ward and It was out of this thut tho only troublo of tho morning arose.

Tho holiday occasion and prospect of dinner had added somewhat tn tho natural cheerfulness of tho street urchins, and being relieved of all anxiety regarding the securing of their shore, some of tho waltlnc ones with their smaller brothers becamo hilarious and for a few minutes tholr effervesconco threatened to create troublo by arousing ill feeling among those who wero still tin provided ror, and whoso chances were momentarily growing Ices. Troublo wan averted, howover, by an experienced worker who called out that It was about tlmo for thoso who wanted any of the Volunteers dinner, to bo gottlng down thero. The effect was Instantaneous. "Where's It at" camo In a cborus'trom tho waiting ones and tho reply, "Flftocnth and Dodge" had scarcely been given beforo tho young sters went tearing out of tbo door and rellovcd the room of Its surplus crowd It was almost noon before tho supply of provisions was exhausted and tho workers estimated that about 150 families had been provided for.

Tho night men are wroth becauso tho day tldo served big turkey dinner to tho prisoners nnd left them to administer to tho over-fed men lat night. One of tho ofllcers said: "Christmas day wo will get oven with them. We'll set up a dinner that will remilt In ft concert for tho night shift, which will make tho performance tonight seem like Undo Tom's Cabin parddo compared to Caesar's triumphant entry Into Rome.

During the Intermission the Cadet band paraded the gridiron, playing a lively air, but the audlenco was gloomy and qulcj. The rooters maintained silence and tho peo ple began to wonder how It all hud happened.

Tho teams were taken Into secludjd spots for a little private drill and Instruction by their coaches. In the second halt the teams changed goals, thus giving the Cornhuskers the advantage ot the wind the Indiana had lit the first, which was by no means small. The Irdluns kicked off aud Drain caught tho ball and advanced with It twenty yards, gracefully dodging tho Indians, who wero close upon him. The Nebraska men seemed to have regained their spirits, for thoy played with somethng like tholr old-time effectiveness. On the first down Drain took the ball aud punted Into the Indian territory nnd fumblo by nn Indian kopt the ball still In Nebraska's possession.

Then by swift, terrific work the ball was carried gradually and steadily nearer tho goal, until It wns lost one foot from tho lino on the third down. Only a few Inches more would havo scored a touchdown, but the distance was too great to be overcome. It was a critical point and the crowds awaited with breathless Interest the outcome ot this play, In which Nebraska had an opportunity to cross the much coveted coal. Nebraska' Lost Opportunity. Dut the swarthy Indians rallied at the opportune moment and prevented that which would havo cheered the hearts of the 3,000 loyal Nebraska supporters who crowded the stands.

Tho Indians attempted to work out Into the field, but wero held back nnd forced to punt, which gavo Nebraska tho ball out of bounds, opposlto tho twenty-yard line. Again Nebraska spirits soared upward. Tho ball wus twenty yards almost directly In front ot the goal and In Nebraska's possession and tho first down had not been ronde. Tho Cornhuskers nroso to tho emergency nnd on two downs advanced flvo yards. Repeated gains brought tho ball to within two ynrds ot tho goal line.

Hut tho spirits dropped as suddenly ns they bad risen, for tho ball wos lost onco more within two feet ot tho goal lino on the third down. With easy but email gains tbo Indians brought tho ball bark to tho contcr of tho field, where It was recovered by Nebraska and punted to the Indians' 23-ynrd line. Tho Indians returned with a punt and tho Cornhtiokcrs repealed tho play, sending tho hall back to tho Indlnns! 33-yard line, where It was caught by Kingsbury after It had been mlssotl by one of tho dusky Itcdmcn. Archlquottc's braves for tho tlmo seemed demoralized and tho pnlc-faces gained slowly but steadily on lino bucking. Nearer and nearer tho ball was pushed towards tho goali The band struck up "There's" be a.hot tlmo" and the rooters Joined In tile refrain.

Tho In dians kicked off Into Ncbrnska torrltoryl but tho boll was returned on tlownB, each play gaining soverol yards.

Again Piooth's douhlo pass was used anil Drain went around tho left end for twenty- flvo yards. It was a great run nnd eheer after cheer went up as tho ball was carried nearer the goal. The run brought the ball to tho- twenty-yard lino nnd tho remaining distance wns easy. A touchdown by Dell and a clear goal by Drain mado tho score 12 to iu. ranacmonium was supreme.

Hnts went Into tho air. Substitutes and spectators out on tbo sldo lines pranced In their enthusiasm ana tho rooters sont forth yell after yell. Tho day had been saved for Nebraska and everybody rose In a riot of gladness. Tho ball was again kicked oft by tho Indians and downed by Nebraska on tho twenty-yard lino. It was quickly brought Into play and given to Ucndcr, who, by a mighty effort dashed through nn opening nt loft guard and ran clear on down tho ontlro length of tho field for ninety yards and scored a touchdown.

If Nebraska's supporters were glad beforo thoy wero now overjoyed. They wcro wild with enthusiasm. Whirlwind of Hurrahs. Never In this season and seldom In seasons past had thero been such a demon stration ns greeted Nebraska's llttlo right halt as ho made this sensational play. Tho ten Nebraska players gathered about their champion, lifted him high above their heads and carried him triumphantly out on tho field amid deafening applauso from the benches.

The run was a spectacular performanco and It stirred every person In tho assemblage, Drain llftc1 the hall prettily over tho goal and the store was 18 to 10. The remaining minutes ot the game were full of sensational plays, Tho Indians kicked off, but wcro unable to stand against tho whirlwind that came upon them. Drain, Damage Sale ends for big gains aud Shedd, by a run ot forty yarda around tho Indians' left end carried tho ball dangerously near the goal. where It died when time was called.

For obvious reasons It Is not wise to mention names in such a case, For the facts of tliU life story arts so common that otiv woman could relate them to some of her married friends, and probably might do so, if the name happened to fit. Therefore, real atory is printed under a wrong name, 'Vhen Mrs. Brown married she was what every one called a remarkably fine girl. She was the very picture of health. She knew nothing about headaches or nerves, but enjoyed life thoroughly working or playing.

Hvcrybcxly called Urown a luckv man, and Ilrown thought so himself. After the first baby came, Mrs. Brown began to feci tired sometimes at the end of the day, Then there come another little guest, and the mother used to feel tired before the end of the day came, She knew now that she had nerves, nnd also had learned the meaning of headache. About tills time people used to speak of Mrs. Brown's falling off in looks.

Her figure lost iu graceful lines, her checks their rosy plumpness. Mr. Brown wasn't losing Anything, by the way. He was putting on flesh, nnd showed in every way the comfortable ease of a man who has a good home aud good wife to manage it. Mr.

Brown believed in large families, lvvery visit of the stork waa to him a cause of happiness. No man could have been more proud of his family. He didn't realise either his own selfishness or his wife's sacrifices. If he had seen a true picture of hio family life it would have shown him in a cart surrounded by a happy family and his wife in the shafts wearily, but willingly, drawing ths heavy load. They got just one too many on the load at lost, nnd after that the neighbors spoke of the late Mrs.

Brown. WOMBN. It is not only the women who turn night day and sacrifice health to pleasure who live fast. The wife and mother who in household duties nnd maternal cares exhausts vitality more rapidly than" it can be supplied, is also living fast, and fast living does not mean long living. 1n a normal condition of health a woman is equal to all proper womanly obligations.

She can guide the house and rear A family, and at a grandmother still show the signs of womanly beauty and strength. But so few women arc normally healthy. Their vitality is often lessened by unhealthy drains, by disease of the delicate womanly organs, while the household cares increase-as the family grows. Every child gets its strength from its mother. As a fact, the prospective mother should be relieved from every possible burden and anxiety, instead of which she carries the household burden to the.

last. Is it any wonder that under these circumstances her strength fails, Prickly Ash Bitters CURES SALLOW COMPLEXION.
