to the mass mooting of the Mothers' con-
Cress at the First Congregational church
yesterday afternoon.

lowed by the reading of chapter xvlll o
( Matthew and n prayer tor the little one :
and their mothers by Rev , Huboct C. Her-
Ting.
Ting..Mrs.
.Mrs. Blrney , president of the Natlona
Mothers' congress , spoke of the pleasure 11
'Xttve .her to say a tow words for a causi
'Which ' was so near to all our hearts and U
mankind , regardless of color , creed or na <
tlonallty. She said that children should bi
the first care of parents and state , for tin
children would grow up to bo the man3ta ! ;
cf the country. In forming their charade
the greatest care should > be taken. That th
-mothers' love throughout the country ha
'been aroused the letters she has receive
Clearly Indicated. While the world acknowl
edges Its obligation to children It shout
make greater sacrifices.
Though millions recognize the -work nn
"worth of the congress many mothers ohjec
to It on the ground that It takes them fror
their children and Interferes with their car
of them. Yet they never allowed their chll
drcn to Interfere with a morning's shoppln
tour nor criticized these who spent hours a
A tlmo at the sewing machines , or at cuchr
or whist clubs , leaving their children t
their own devices. These mothers ofte
Txilong to ten or twelve different clubs , yt
they had not any tlmo to give to th
Mothers' congress. And then she told of tli
practical results of the congress.
More day nurseries have been establlshec
where children can be lett and amused an
"kept .out of mischief. Free kindergarten
ennblo poor mothers to have their chlldrc
Instructed Intelligently before they are cage
ago to go to school. But the greatest wor
ot the congress has been In starting clut
Among the Ignorant nnd Illiterate mothei
to teach them how to bring up their chll
dren. Mrs. Birney ended her remarks wit
A glowing tribute to the spiritual mother ;
the kindergarten teachers and a plea fc

Mlas Hoper , the next speaker , Is the edltc
f the Kindergarten Magazine and a direct !
In the Chicago Kindergarten Institute. Hi
.pet and particular thcmo Is the study i
child nurture Instead ot child study.
After citing several Instances of ml :
placed confidence Miss Hoper showed ho
they all had their being In faulty tratnli
In the early days. To remedy this It Is hi
Idea to establish the scientific courses '
Tilgh schools and colleges for the fundi
icontal knowledge of what constitutes chi
nurture. Then have the best methoi
brought homo to the teachers In norm
colleges so that they may regard chlldn
ws works of the Dlvlno Creator , not as mo
.animals. Miss Hoper urged that some gel
oral rules for the welfare of children 1
"handed down from generation to gcneratli
and that people of mature years who ha'
Ideas about the way they should have bei
"brought up In tangible form for the bene
of others.
Another director of the Chicago Klndo
jiartcn Institute , .Miss Newton , made an ol
quent plea for the professional ktnderga
tener. She said that people oftcntlm
asked what business kindergarten ieachc
had In a mothers' congress and to the
she always replied that the fundament
prlclplcs of the being of their children w
-xs Interesting to her ns to them. For 1
dally contact with the children she h
como to learn the mother's love and trutl
For while the mother Is Interested onfy
the phase of the problem as shown In h
child , the kindergarten teacher often h
flfty or 100 auch problems.
As Indicative of her profession's right
consult and advise with mothers , Miss No
ton spoke of the specialists' Intercourse wl
mothers. An anatomist went to n moll
* nd told her that If her child sat In au
and such B kind of n chair It would bo 1
Jured 'for lite. The mother did not nsk h
what business he had to advise her , I
"hastened to comply with his directions.
It Is the kindergarten teacher's aim to h <
and advise her by pointing out dangers a
remedies which she , by her varied exp (
lences with children , perceives. For as t
"kindergarten teacher has something to gl'
let her give H without fear of rebuke to t
mother.

In the name of the Bureau of Education

-ford thanked the officers of the Natloi
Mothers' Congress for the benefit and plei
lire they are giving the citizens , men a
-women alike , ot Omaha.
Mrs. Heller spoke upon "Tho Value ot I
Flrat Three Years of Children's Educatloi
She said that In the struggle for more pi
feet after lives parentfc wore throwing nw
precious years If they desired to make th
children what they themselves would 1
to have been. To this end the care bcf >
they arc ot ago to go to school Is most 1
tiortant. The first tlireo years Is devoted
the physical development of the child , wh
Is now almost perfectly understood. 1
second nnd third years should bo devoted
tlio spiritual development of the child ,
this Is done nil the many heartaches n
bo spared the mother , nnd when the cl
Is ready to go to school there Is less dan
of its perversion than If It Is left to wo
Along from the period when It Is physics

Mrs. Heller spoke strongly against
customof scaring or worrying the child
this later stage and hoped that ere li
mothers would bo as fully able to guide tl
children through this second stage
through the first.

.AMUSEMENTS.
Primrose & Dockstadcr's minstrels occu-
led the lloyd's for a dor and night pcr-
ormanco yesterday. They have mounted
heir performance moro elaborately than has
eretofore been attempted , The setting for
he first act Is a series ot marble steps sur
rounded by a balcony , the entire scene sur
mounted by n vaulted celling , producing a
cry pretty effect. The setting of George
'rlmroso's "Watermelon Song" was also a
holco conceit the half of a hugo water
melon with a slice of the favorite fruit ol
.he colored man In the foreground , the
eeds painted to represent negro faces. The
long Itself was not one , however , which will
set the town going llko his "Hot Time. " In
'act ' , Mr. Primrose In this respect Is some
what of a disappointment. He Is the same
dainty , dandy "coon , " but his new songs are
not particularly catchy. Lew Dockstadci
hns not favored Omaha with a visit for sev
eral years , but ho Is Just as entertaining a :
ot yore. His monologues are not so brlghl
as some things ho has done In this line
though not bad , but his rendition of tlplca
'coon" songs Is In a class by Itself. Jlmmj
Wall Is also Just as sprightly and happy ai
ever and Just as good a mirth provokcr
Low Sully sings some clever songs and doei
some entertaining comedy work and a coupli
of ballads \yell rendered by W. H. Thompsoi
and Manuel 'Remain , with a quintet li
snatches of late opera , complete the firs
part. The Quaker City quartet renders so in
good musical selections and some clever Iml
tatlons , and these with a musical corned ;
trio by Howe , Wall and Sully complete th
musical part of the program. The Dconz
brothers conclude the performance with
really wonderful athletic exhibition , turnln ;
somersaults Into and out of barrels wit !
their feet tied , and winding up with a slra
liar act with the feet tied and eyes blind
folded. The performance Is an Intcrestln
one , but candor compels the statement tha
both of the sl'ars , Primrose and Dockstadei
have In times past given n better and mor
original one , and particularly Is this true c
Gcorgo Primrose , who does not appear t
have any superlative ambition to conquc
now worlds.
A packed house saw the presentation c
the romantic naval drama , "Tho Whll
Squadron , " nt the Crelghton laut night. Th
production of James W. Harklns , Jr. , Is on
that appeals strongly to Ins patriotic Instlm
hut It has a great many moro merits tha
that. There Is n very Intuiting plot fu
of startling situation and climaxes , and th
attention Is held closely from the openln
sccno to the denouement. The scene Is lal
In the harbor of Rio de Janeiro , where tt
battleship "Chicago" Is at close anchor ail
where a congress of navies of various powei
Is to be held to compel the Biazlllan goA
ornment to put a check to brigandage. Tt
commander of the American ship , Vlctc
Staunton , Is the primary hero of the pU
and a captain In the Brazilian army , Pau
do Sllverla , Is the secondary hero. Thei
are also two villains , General Do Romacl
commnndor of the Brazilian army , and h
ncphow , Francisco , who are the real brlgai
leaders though ostensibly loyal. As Vlcti
Staunton Is In love with the sister of Co ]
tain Do Sllverla , and the captain Ilkowli
with the general's daughter , 'the ' tender pai
slon figures strongly In Its particular eli
ment. The heroic and the coincident tea
urcs are blended and there Is also enout
of comedy In the piece to produce many
twitter nnd afford sufficient contrast. <
course , the general Is finally "discovered
bo a traitor , the grand climax being rejoin
when President Fonseca of the republic , ;
the gulso of a priest , makes this dtscovei
face to face. The American command ,
comes In for all the glory. The cast Is
very large one and the piece Is well stage
The characters are nicely balan&ad , tc
Frederick Montague as Victor Staunton , I
Witt Clinton as Captain Do Sllverla , Walt
D. Greene ns General Do Romaclo , Bert !
3relghton as Onesta de Sllveria , and In
MaeAuley as the general's daughter , carrl
through their respective roles admirably. :
In the minor characters did Will Davis
President Fonseca , Frank K , LInden as Sa
tea , a Moorish slave , and Wilson Enos
the general's nephew. These all were t
strikingly dramatic tragic parts. Comedy v ,
supplied very -effectively
by Hal Davis as
newspaper kodak fiend , Emma Dunn
Hope Staunton and Gertrude Berkeley
Hope's aunt , quaker women susceptible
male charms. A pretty part also was th
of Harry C. Long as a nervy naval cadet.

President J. M. Brlnker , Treasurer P. C

curing Information regarding the op < : ratlot
of the Transmlsslsslppl Exposition likely ti
provo beneficial In the conduct ot their en
tcrprlsc. They express themselves as bclni
highly gratified at the many courtesies ex
tended Vo them In Omalia , Captain BrlnXo
said : "I am very pleased with my visit am
am very agreeably disappointed at the size
Importance and completeness ot the cxhlbi

Bco , wo have received great encouragcmeu
and have become Inspired with now zeal to
the Panamerican exposition by what w
have seen and learned , Omaha has cer
talnly done wonders. "
Mr. Laufz , treasurer ot the Panamcrlca

facturers In western New York and nn Im
poriant representative of the thriving clt
ot Bulfalo , said ho was highly pleased wit
his experiences In Omaha.S'c nnv
learned some most valuable lessons and tiue
we shall profit by them In 1001. "
Secretary R. C. Hill , who Is a ntwspape
man of long experience nnd who has fc
many'years ' made a careful tH'udy of exposl
tlons , was a visitor to Ths Bee office las
evening. He said : "I will not attempt t
express all the complimentary Ideas I ha\
In mind In regard to the Omaha cxposltloi
When the history of all the great evpos :
tlons of this country Is written the < hapt <
devoted to Omaha In 13fS must bo an Intel
cstlng nnd Imptaut one. "
Speaking of the Pannmerlcan cxposltU
project ho explained , "It has been alluded
as the Panamerican congress , but that Is t
erroneous title. The leading Idea of the e :
position will bo to Illustrate the marveloi
progress of the present century In the wes
ern hemisphere. This Idea was emphatlcal
stated in tlio enabling act passed by bo
housss In congress and approved by Pres
dent McKtnley , and the act stated that tl
purpose of the Panamerican exposition ,
be held on Cayuga island , between the cltl
of Buffalo and Niagara Falls , In the state
New York , in the year 1901 , needs the ci
courngemcnt and approval of congress ai
of the people of the United States. The e
position Is Intended to fittingly Illustra
the marvelous development of the Weste
hemisphere during the Nineteenth centu
by the demonstration of the reciprocal r
latlons existing between the American r
publics and colonies.
3 Colelirntvn a HrmlNitlierc'n Growth
r "This Idea of an exposition reviewing t
f < achievements of the New World during t
> Nineteenth century Is certainly In harmo
B with that patriotic spirit long vigorous
existent on this hemisphere , but made 1
finitely more expansive nnd emphatic by t
remarkable events of the last few months
Cuba , Porto Rico , Hawaii and the Phlll
pines. The New World has fairly outrival
the Old World during the Nineteenth ce
tury In many Important fields of hum
competition. A purely New World's c
position will bo an essential departure I
the International character of prcTlc
great expositions.
"I bellevo that geographically , hlsto :
J catty , commercially and scientifically
would bo difficult to find a moro deslral
location than that which has been select
for the Panamorlcan exposition. Thls'loc
tlon is not at the city of Buffalo , as h
been stated , but within a short distance
the great cataract of the Nlaraga river. T
opportunities for a great electrical dlspl
are remarkable. The power generated
r
the current of the Niagara river Is now t
Ing delivered along the frontier to Buffa
twenty miles away , and the supply of el <
trlcaf power for the exposition purposes w
bo practically unlimited. The Nlaga
Frontier teenis with historic Interest ,
was the 'Dark and Bloody Grounds' of t
revolutionary war , and along Its river bn
were fought many of the famous battles
the war of 1812. It was also there that m <
than three centuries ago the Intrepid m
slonarles from Franco planted the dlvlm
illumined cross which shed upon the unt
tored red men of the picturesque region t
first gleam of Christian faith. It was
Cayuga Island , which Is close to the Amc
can mainland that Sleur de La Sallo bu
and launched In 1607 the 'Griffon , ' the ft
vessel which sailed the Inland seas a
pioneered the watery pathway to the Miss
slppl and the great northwest.
"Tho Niagara frontier Is the center of I
largest mass of population on the weste
hemisphere. Within a day's ride , onclrcfl
t n radius ot less than 500miles are E
o 000,000 people , a fact of great slgnlflcai
Isle In weighing the Importance of the Panami
lo lean enterprise. With the experiences
loT. Chicago , Atlanta , Nashvliro and Omaha
[ T. would seem that such an exposition ns tl
proposed for 1901 can be made highly s
ccsstu ? . "

the White Man.
While In a talkative mood yesterday Gcr
onlmo , the old Apache chief , who Is ono ot
the attractions ot the Indian congress , un
bosomed himself and talked quite freely ot
the Indian uprising In and around the vicin
ity of Leech Lake , Minn. The old man has
epctit more years In war than In following
the pursuits ot peace and as all of his warfare -
faro has been waged against the whites by
all of the older Indians ho Is looked upon as
a great man and what he says consequently
carries n good deal of weight.
Speaking of the Minnesota troubles Gor-
j onlmo through nn Interpreter said : "I have
I heard something ot the fight up In the north
j and some of my friends have told me some
things , so that I have quite nn Idea ot the
situation. I don't know where Leech Lake
is , but 1 suppose It Is way out In the woods
or somewnys out from the big towns. I
have not traveled up that way , so I don't
know much about the country , only from
what I have been told. I want to say that
the Indians are n lot of red fools for going
Into this fight against the white men. They
will get the worst of It In the end and then
they will bo sorry.
"Years ago , " continued the old chief , "I
thought that I could whip the whole United
States , but since I have been around the
country I have changed my mind. There Is
no country thai can whip the United States
nnd what Is the use ot a few hundred In
dians starting In to undertake the Job.
Since coming to Omaha I have learned that
the whlto men are moro numerous than the
leaves on the trees or the blades of grass on
Ilia prairies. Coming up from my homo In
the south I saw moro white men than there
are Indians In existence and I am told that
there nre only a few down there as compared
with the number up In Minnesota , where n
few fools are making war. Right hero at
the exposition there nro enough people com
ing every day to put nn end to every Indian
In the world If they saw fit to do so. Then ,
besides this , the white men have all of the
guns , powder and bullets. They have all of
the big guns and they are the ones that
count. Down at the government building
the other day I saw a gun that shoots more
bullets In A minute than all of the Minnesota
seta Indians could shoot In a year. The
United States has hundreds and thousands
of these guns nnd I am told that the coun
try has big houses filled with powder and
bullets aud can make as many more every
day In the year , so , ns I said before , what
Is the use of a few hundred Indians going
out on .tho war path trying to clean out the
i
government ?
"When I was a young man and a fool , I
lived down along the south border of the
Q
United States where there were only a few
B
whlto people. Some of my old friends told
mo that these people were the only whites
In the country nnd I believed what they
said. I went to war and Buffered. My men
were killed and I was made a prisoner. 01
course that made mo mad , but It was the
best thing that over happened to me , for It
taught me a lesson and convinced mo that
_ I was not the only person In the world. Now
n 11 am satisfied to settle down and be a geode
o citizen. My days of fighting are over , ex
o cept to fight for the stars and stripes , which
'I ' would be glad to do If 'I had a chance. 01
couuu If I should be called to go out tc
fight Indians , I would do so , but I am
through shooting nt white men. When the
president comes here this week , I want tc
meet him and tell him I am a friend of the
whlto man. Some of the white men havt
wronged me , but they were bad men nnd
I don't blame all because a few are bad.
"I nm an old man now and I want to sec
my people learn the ways of the whites. 1
want to see them ralso corn and cattle and
llvo In houses and I believe that the presi
dent and the big men nt Washington will
help my people If they will try to help thorn-
selves. "
