April 28. ( Special Tele
pram. ) Hut a short session of the conferee *
ou the Indian bill wan held thli afternoon ,
Uo conference adjourning about 3 o'clock
to meet again tomorrow at 10:30. : It was
found that many ot the confcrencea between
the senate and house could be adjusted
without much friction. At the morning sei
Ion of the conference committee the minor
amendments were considered and agreed
upon and In tbo afternoon trivial matters
were taken up. Assurances were given to
tiny that the senate amendment appropri
ating $45,000 would bo taken care of by the
conference committee.
The senate committee on Indian affairs
today reported adversely on the nomination
of Narren S. Hand of 'Michigan to be Indian
occnt at Cheyenne , S. D. The nomination
was a complete surprise to the republican
patronage committee and will be vigorously
opposed by Senator Kyle. The senate com
mittee based the rejection of the nomination
of Hand on the ground that ho is a non
resident of South Dakota. The patronage
committee candidate for thin place la Sena
tor Hatch of Mound City , S. D. It will bo
remembered that a vigorous fight was made
by. Mr. Klttrcdgo and his friends against C.
( L. McCoy , who was named for this posl'-
tlon. McCov w'as confirmed , but was after
ward Induced to accept a place as postoMlco
Inspector.
QporEO II. Colton of David City , Neb. , re
ccntly appointed bank examiner , was today
granted permission by the comptroller of the
currency to .volunteer with state troops.
'Kxamlner ' John IJ. Cunningham of Kansas
has been placed In charge of the territory
covered by Mr. Colton.
HUSH FOK COMMISSIONS.
Telegrams innumerable have been pourIng -
Ing In upon Assistant Secretary of War
Molkle'ohn asking that Hrlgadlcr General
iTJllls bo pushed for a like position In the
volunteer service. So formidable have these
telegrams become that Mr. Mclklcjohn staled
today that Nebraska was not entitled ot
right to a brigadier general , but two regi
ments of Infantry being called from that
Btnte. nnd that as under the new bill three
re-lm ntB constitute a brigade , three No-
brnska regiments would be united with some
other regiments from South Dakota and would
then be entitled to a brigadier general. Ho
stated that L. W. Colby of Beatrice had
been recommended for a brigadier general-
Bhlp. The government does not recognize
Nebraska as entitled to a brigadier except
through the nomination of the president.
Omaha , It was stated today at the War dc-
TMrtm nt , had been Bclectcd as the rendez
vous for the volunteer regiments because of
its close proximity to the two military reser
vations , an the headquarters of the Depart
ment of the Missouri and Its nearness to the
commUwary < ind quartermaster's depots. Im
mediately after Lieutenant Stotzenberg has
completed the mustering In ot the men the
rendezvous will bo changed from Lincoln to
Omaha and the troops will go Into camp in
that city. Until the muster Is complete the
governor has a perfect right to assemble the
National Guard wherever ho sees fit , but the
moment the troopa become a part of the
army they cease to be members of tlje Na
tional Guard and become subject to the
orders of the War department as authorized
by the president. It will be of especial In
terest to Mioae now being mustered Into the
ecrvlco of the United States to know that
pay will commence , subsistence and furnish
ing of quartermaster's stores will be fur
nished by tha government when they be-corao
a part of the United States' ' army and that
transportation and everything obtaining to
camp life are dependent upon the above con
sideration.
J. L. Torrey of Wyoming , Melvln Grlgsby
of South Dakota and Dr. Leonard Wood of
Iowa were today commissioned as colonels
and bvo been authorized to organize three
regiments of cavalry , to bo known oa First ,
Second and Third United States volunteer
cavalry. The regiments will be composed of
7SO men each and are independent of .he
general call for 125,000 volunteers made by
the president. Colonels Grlgsby and Torrey
will ralao their quota In South Dakota and
Wyoming and the neighboring states , while
Colonel Wood will cecure his prospective cav
alrymen in the southwest. From the large
number of letters and telegrams being re
ceived by the newly made colonels a full
quota ot troops will be assembled in a very
short time. The new commanders will leave
for the west this week and Colonel Torrey
will arrive In Cheyenne on Monday. Colonel
Grlgsby will reach Sioux Falls on the name
day.
il'Vom present indications It is not probable
that the question of the removal of the land
office from Hapld City , S. D. , to Deadwood
will be settled for some time. Inspector
Green has notified the land commissioner that
the present detail in Montana requires his
* attention for several days.

O. wT3i7i k ir"iFirtiiro.
It Is reported. In Union Pacific circles that
Oliver W. Mink will bo connected with the
road but a short tlmo after May 1 and
that be will soon become the comptroller
of a big eastern corporation. He is ono c'
the receivers of the Union Pacific railway
and will continue to exercise the duties of
that ofllce until discharged by the court.
"Tho reorganized Union "Pacific , " said a
prominent official of that road yesterday ,
"does not make room for any comptroller ,
tno work , that would bo done by such a de
partment now being handled by the audit
ing department. The work of the comptroller
was especially necessary during the recolv-
irshlp of the Union Pacific and Its branch
lues , but now that th ; comnany Is on an
independent basts again there is no need
for such a department. I do not know
whether thcro Is any truth In the report
that Mr. Mink has never accepted the first
vice presidency of the Union Pacific , but I
do not expect him to remain with the Union
Pacific very long. "
Mohlcr to SiicirodiMvmnn. .
It Is currently reported that A. L. Mohlcr ,
now president of the Oregon Railway and
Navigation company , has been slated for the
position ot vice president ot the Great North
ern , to succeed W. H. Newman , who resigns
to become president ot the Lake Shore &
Michigan .Southern. Mr. Mohler Is an old
official of the Great Northern , the general
managership of which he rcilgncJ to accept
bis present position. Ho was at one time
general freight agent of the line and as the
vice president will take charge of trafflc
he is welt suited for the position. Since he
ook the presidency of the Oregon Hallway
and Navigation company that line has lost
much of Its Importance on account of Its
segregation from the Union Pacific. It Is
thought , therefore , that Mr. Mohler would
accept the vice presidency on a line like the
Ureal Nortnurn.

LISBON , April 28. The Official Gazette
today announces that the Portuguese govern.
ment has , so far as the public is concerned ,
topped tbo dispatch of telegraphic Informa.
tlon regarding the movements ot warships
on the seaboard , or in the harbors of Portu
gal.
gal.The
The Spanish ship Pelayo , together with
evcral first-class Spanish cruisers , has been
at St. Vincent , Cape Verde Islands , a Portuguese -
gueso port , for some time past. Dally bulle.
tins have been received from there by the
Associated Press , but the action of the Portu.
gueso government apparently closes this
source of Information regarding the move
ments and whereabouts of the Spanish fleet.
The action ot Portugal in prohibiting the
trans-mission ot news dispatches regarding
war ships has caused a sensation , as revealIng -
Ing it is doing everything possible to aid
Spain.
The decision ot the Portuguese government
today is undoubtedly in response to the
pressure brought to bear by Spain and the
sole object of tbo order , it Is believed , Is to
prevent news of the departure of the Span
ish fleet from being cabled from St. Vincent ,
Cape Verde Islands.
A dispatch received here from Lisbon this
morning , in reiterating the denial made In
the Portuguese House ot Peers yesterday
that President 'McKInley had called upon
Portugal to obtain the departure of the Span
ish squadron from St. Vincent , Cape Verde
islands , adds : "President McKlnley'e notifi
cation Is understood to have threatened un
less the Spaniards were ordered to leave
St. Vincent that the United States would
regard Portugal as an ally of Spain and treat
her accordingly. "

An oven dozen of young physicians worn
added to the fold of tbc medical profession
aet evening by the commencement exercises
ot ttie Crelgtiton Medical college. It was
the first complete clasa that had taken the
full four years' course to be graduated from1
the Crclghton Medical college. In the grad
uating clam of 1897 there was one who had
taken this course , while the rest were grad
uates after three years ot Instruction. But
this year all had finished , with no tittle
credit , all the courses contained In tour
years of study before lUoy received their
diplomas. This fact , combined with the
equally noteworthy Incident that the com
mencement cxerclaes were the first held In
the handsome new building ot the college
made the occasion one that will bo set down
In thecnnals ot the college as a red-letter
event.
ride following ore the names of the young
men and women who were graduated : A.

and Clement D. Little.
The exercises wore held In the auditorium
of the now home of the college , and were
presided over by Dr. D. C. Bryant , John A.
Crelghton , founder of the college ; Father
Patils , president ot Crclghton university ,
and Dr. T. 11. L icey of Couucll Uluff.i , pco-
fccsor of surgery. After a few well ren
dered selections by a string orchestra Dean
Ilryjnt called tbc assemblage- order and
Introduced the first speaker.
DIl. LACEVS ADDRESS.
Dr. Lacey delivered an admirable address
to the graduates. It abounded In timely
suggestions to the future practitioners
couched In plain , straightforward language ,
and was well delivered. Among other things
he said : "Four years ago you decided to
enter on a course of medical study here.
Through diligence and perseverance you have
gained the right to practice In your cbcsen
profession os certified In the diplomas you
( Java earned. For thin boner you have
worked hard. Your examination papers ore
proof of this. In going out to practice you
will moot with discouragements. You will
not be able to conquer all disease. You will
find that your studies here constitute but
the ground work ot your medical knowledge.
As phjslcans ! you will lose none of the du
ties as citizens , but will have added those of
your profession. You will probably go to
different cities and towns to eettle. Wher
ever you go.you will go to bind up ttie
wounds of the Injured and heal the Ilia of
the sick. In tills you must be charitable , not
because cfiarlty covers a multitude of elna ,
but became It's humanity. Your re-nponul-
bllltlea In charitable work will be greater an
physicians because your power fcr good Is
greater.
"Many otherwise good iphyalclans arc
spoiled by their greed. I do net say that It
Is not proper that you should receive re
muneration for your services , but never turn
a deaf ear to suffering children , to the wants
of the aged and Infirm , 'to ' mothers In d''i- '
tress , to the real needy who appeal to yru
In the name of humanity. Hemembsr nlwn > n
that the boner of the wives , the tnolhfrs
and the daughters of the community .you
practice In Is In your hands. Mo matttr
what may happen , there arc family ' -wets
that can never be spoken of outside of the
family. IThoro Is a eacredness about this
trust that must be respected and no court
will make you testify concerning such mat-
tera.
"Sometimes one hears It said ttat a man
would rather have such and such a physi
cian drunk than another physlcttn sober.
But the tlmo has gene when Intemperance
and the practice of medicine can exist side
by side. If you're going to bo a geol phy
sician you must let whisky alone. Compe
tition In the medical profession Is entirely
too keen nowadays to admit of an/thtns like
Intemperance among thost who wlah to
maintain their reputations as good physi
cians or keep any practice t all.
"I should also advise you to keep out r.f
politics. You should be tnforuiad of what Is
going on and Inquire EUtllclently of the plat-
forma and the candidates to enable you to
vote Intelligently. But tbl9 tar.d no fur
ther would I go. Do right at all tlme.3 , not
for any fear of punishment In ! he ippften-
tlary , but solely on the manhooi or the
womanhood that b In vou. There are Jui'ra ' ,
too. that you owe your brother doctors and
you must not overlook tncss. You will ne-.er
have fear of manly competition. A'oove all
do not forget the John A. Cralghton Medical
college , your alma mater , and the philan
thropist who founded It. "
DR. PINTO'S VALEDICTORY.
Dr. A. S. Pinto of the class of T'S then fol
lowed with the valedictory to the graduating
class. It was a meet felicitous address and
was heartily applauded. He ald tb.it .al
though the graduates would say fir.jvill to
tholr college with deep regret and profound
reluctance , they- realized that they -vero
standing on .the edge of the most Important
epoch In their lives and were eager that their
best hopes might bo realized. Ho pild an
eloquent 'compliment ' to John A. Crelghton ,
saying that there were times when the
patriot ( became merged Into the plillinthr -
plst and that he was a true patriot who
helped the poor , founded hospitals , estab
lished schools and built onllegm. He declared
clared that the name of Crelgtiton would long
be remembered among the E"0\'ent of Ameil-
can philanthropists and said that as Ion , ; an
charity was needed the name of Crelghton
would occupy a high place In the esteem and
the affection of the people of this com
munity.
Father Pahls , president of Crelghton uni
verslty , then read the d'ploma ' o > vtrded to
the graduates , translating the text of the
diploma Into the vernacular. He .iftenvird
presented to each graduate Ms diploma. The
following prizes were announced by Dean
Bryant and then awarded : A battery for th
beat'work In general medical study , \o \ I'OKS"
T. Conlan ; a surgical case , for ih ; beat work
In surgery , to Frederick J. Weirne. nd second
end prlzo to Peter Conan ; ; a ; onu : ng ophthal.
mascope. for the best work In ophthal
mology , to Joseph Ball ; a gold medal of the
value of $25 for the best work In surreal
pathology , to Peter Conlan. The firm of Aloe
& Penfold presented a gift to each member
of the graduating class. All the fffiduaten
were well remembered with florrirs and other
presents by their friends.
It was announced by Dean Bryaat that
Frederick J. A\'earno would receive th > first
appointment as Interne at St. Joseph' ho3-
pltal and Peter Conlan the second apno'nt- '
monit , based on the work of these young
physicians In their college course.
DANQLIEtT.
The commencement exercises were pleas
antly followed by a banquet to the graduat
ing class given at the 'Commercial club. It
was attended by forty male and three women
banqtictters. lA menu of a dozen courses was
served. The tables were brightened by largo
bunches of red an. } of pink decorations , ami
from an adjokilng room came the strains ol
orchestral music throughout the banquet.
"Yield Not to Misfortune" was the motto
to the embryo physlcla-rs. emblazoned on the
outsldo cover of an attractive menu card
and from the start they made last evenln ;
It would not appear that they were going to
yield to anything of that nature. Dean
'Bryant ' of the college faculty was toastinastcr
and ccnjueted the post prandial exercises In
a happy manner. Dr. > B. F. Crummor re
sponded to the first itoast , "Keep Cool. " He
gave same wholesome advlco to the young
docton'told ; | them to work hard , to pend all
the time they could spare In study tnd par
ticularly urge ! upon them the value ot keepIng -
Ing up a good working library. < Ho told them
how to keep cool under trying clrcuuutaoccx
and how to avoid having cold feet when
other peopto were badly scared. ,
Dr. B. C. Henry made a most felicitous
reply to the toast announced by Dean Bryant.

.AMUSEMENTS
. . . .
The recital that \MsVKlven at the Flrot
; ongregatlonal churetrtast night by Mr.
Joseph Qahm asabtedjjlr Mr. Hans Albert
Is justly entitled torqnk as one of the
rnwt notable musical -rnts ot the season.
Bold artists were at their best and the
ludlence that filled the large auditorium
tad the pleasure of listening to a perform
ance that they will long remember. It Is
ncldentilly a matter _ of self-congratuatlca !
hat Omaha has musicians who are capable
of giving ouch an evening's entertainment.
The program was quite long and It was
nterpolated with encorrs the audience In
sisted on until It stretched far beycad the
usual length ot similar recitals. But so
superior was the music that no one counUd
ho mlnutca and the audience listened from
first to lai't with an appreciation that devel
oped Into genuine enthusiasm. The Ruben-
stein sonata In O minor for piano and violin
vas the first number cmd It served to aptly
orccast the pleasure that was In store. It
wa.j executed with that rare combination of
irllll-iticy and feeling that Is seldom com-
ilnsJ tn the same artist and tha end ot each
movement was greeted with approbation that
\us enthusiastic to a degree In which an
Omaha audience oetdom Indulges. Mr. G-ihm
ilayed an Adanto with variations aivi the
uneral march of Beethoven , the "Bourree"
m B minor by Bach-Saint Saens , "The
itiifllc Box" by Lladovv , an Adante from
. .ucla Dl Lammermoor for His left handa-
one , a berceuse by Grieg and a mazurka ,
nocturne acid waltz by Chopin , Both his
echnlque and Interpretation were decidedly
superior to his performance at the previous
ecltat and at times his work wa a revela-
lon even to hU friends. ThlaVas partlcu-
arly true of the selection from "Lucia"
ind In response tea - well sustained encore
10 played the Scrcnata by Moskowsky.
Mr. Albert wao also hi magnificent form
and he treated the audience to such violin
ilaylng as has been seldom heard. His pcr-
ormance In tbo scmta with Mr. Gahm and
ils rendition of Vlcuxlcmrs' concerto In D
nlnor reached a pohit of artistic brilliancy
hat could scarcely bo Improved upon. He
Mo played the "Albumblatt" by Wagner and
he Carmen Fantasia by Blzer Sarasate after
each of which he wa.3 compelled to respond
o an encore. After the Fantaslo he played
Schubert's serenade with an Intensity and
powar that few violinists command. It Is
doubtful If either of the performera ever ap-
> eared to better advantage than last even-
ng trad these who neglected to hear them
missed an opportunity that comes but cwl-
iom.
James A. Heroe's successful play of Amcr-
can home- life , "Shore Acres , " will be the
attraction at Boyd's on Monday , Tuesday
and Wednesday of next week , has ohown
Thti charming pastoral play hao re

a tremendous amount or hard work

It Is when the nerve tissues and brain

SOUTH OMAHA NEWS.
Quito . number of the suggestions made
by Mayor 'Enscr hi Ills annual message arc
to receive the sei-lous consideration of the
city lawmakera. One thing suggested by the i
executive and favoroi by a majority of the
council Is the voting of bonds for a city hall.
The mayor figures that a suitable site could
be purchased and a building erected at a
cent ot not more than $14,000. At this cost
the building would soo.i pay for Itself , as
the city now pays out ifor rent for ofllces ,
Jail civl Hre hall nearly $1,500 a year. Some
of the members of the council do not think j
that It would be advisable to erect a cheap
building and are Inclined to favor a proposi
tion to vote at least $23,000 In bonds and
erect a substantial structure and one that
the city would not bo ashamed of. The-
liTMent offices are unfit for occupancy and although -
, though the owners of the property have been
! notified to clean up nothing has so far been
' done. A alto on a good downtown corner 1
'
could. It Is claimed , be purchased for from
? 4,000 to $3,000 , and with $25,000 to spend an
attractive city hall , Including jail , pollco
court , council chamber , flre icTepartment headquarters -
quarters , etc. , could be ereoted wlt-h the bal
ance left after the purchase of the land. The
Interest In this matter Is growing and while
It Is not probable that a special election will
bo held to vote on the question of bonds
many are known to bo 4n favor of auch
action. On account of the expense , however.
It Is moro than likely that the bond .proposi
tion will be held back until the regular
election In the fall. If other quarters were
available for city offices the desire to build
a city hall woull not be so strong , but the
present quarteie are the only available ones
In the city and It would mol be helping mat-
ters-rfny to move- back Into the Plvonka
block.
Xunie * T - Jallern.
Ono of the Innovations Introduced by
Mayor Enson la the appointing of two per
manent jailers. Heretofore a policeman has
been detailed to look after the Jail and walk
a short beat. This was never entirely satis
factory , and a number of escapes ocairred
wlillo 'the ' officer on duty was out on his
boat. The mayor decided to put a rtop to
this sort of thing and In order to flx the
responsibility he has named a day and night
Jailer -whoso sole duty will be to guard the
Jail and attend < o the wants of the prison
erg. Officer Martin Tlghe IMS been assigned
as day Jailer and Officer Patrick Morrlsoa'
will look after' tha prison at night , in addi
tion to the day Jailer ta officer has been
detailed to act aa court officer during the
hours Judge Babcock holds court. This Is
another much needed Improvement and ono"
that Is appreciated by those having business
with the police judge.
