HACilAMENTO, Cal., May 25. Aftor
leaving Ban Francisco this morning the
president's trnln ran through crowds nt all
(stations. Mtnuto stops were made nt Tort
Cpsta and Tracy, at each of which places
the president shoolc hands with a number of
people.
At Htocliton, through some mlsunler
standing, tho Inhabitants thought the train
would stop thirty minutes. The entire
Imputation wan at tho station nnd si stand
had been erected along one slds of the
track. Dut tho train only halted for two
minuted. The president appeared upon the
rear platform nnd bowed his acknowledg
ments to tho vaet assemblage. Ho alio
shook hands with some of thosa who '
crowded about tho platform. Since tho
routo of tha return Innrnpv to Washlneton i
has been published telegrams havo poured !
In on tho president asking him to stop at
almost every city and town. Secretary
Cortelyou has responded to these appeals
by tho statement that the president will
return to Washington by tho most direct
route and that only such stops ns the
necessities of tho railroad required would
bo made. The president desires to go back
to Washington as quietly ns possible. It
Is believed that tho train would arrive
there Thursday morning, but tho hour has
not been fixed, as tho transportation ar
rangements beyond Chicago have not been
completed.
Mrs. McKlnlcy showed no 111 effects from
hur Journey up to tho tlmo Sacramento was
reached and Dr. Rlxey believes she will be
nblo to stand the trip to Washington with
out stopping for rest along the route.
Captain Stowart M. Iirlce of Now York,
a son of thu late United States Senator
llrlcc, who camo to San Francisco to bo
present at tho last public appcaranco of
General Shatter, upon whoso staff he served
during tho Spanish war, Is roturnlng cast
on the president's- train.
BAN FKANCI8C0, May 23. Tho presi
dential party, after a sojourn of nearly two
weeks In this city, left for Washington a
few moments after 10 o'clock this morning.
Tho physicians In attendance on Mrs. Mc
Klnlcy held their last consultation yester
day, and after they had announced their
decision that Mrs. McKlnley was strong
enough to endure tho transcontinental Jour
ney preparations for departure were rap
Idly made. Mrs. McKlnley enjoyed a re
freshing night's rest and seemed elated at
tho prospect of soon being at homo. She
was conveyed from the Scott residence to
the Oakland ferry In a closed carriage over
a circuitous route, which was chosen so
that tho Invalid might paBS over only
smoothly paved streets, tho Jarring basalt
blocks, which arc laid on many streets, be
ing avoided. Sho was accompanied by tbo
president, Dr. Hlxey and the trained nurse,
tho rest of tho party proceeding to tho
starting point In a more direct way.
Immense Crotvil Is (lathered.
An Immense crowd bad assembled at the
ferry depot of the Southern Pacific, the
wide expanse afforded by tho Junction of
Market and East streets being a solid mass
of humanity through which the police with
difficulty kept open a passageway for tho
president and his party. Heads were un
covered as the carriage In which Mrs. Mc
Klnley roflo approached and thero was a
visible effort to restrain an outburst of
applattso as the carriage with drawn cur
tains drovo slowly through tho throng.
All respected the frail condition of the
Woman's Work in Club and Charity
Mu Sigma club hcl.l Us last meeting of
tile year on Wcdnesdny morning nt the
home of Mrs. Hurrctt nnd elected as Its
ofllcora for the coming year: Mrs. Patrick,
president; Mr. Damon, vlco president:
Mrs. Wright, secretary, -and Mrs. Hohr
baugh, treasurer. Tho reading of tho sec
retary's annual roport was one of tho In
teresting features of tho business session
and showed a year of most profitable work.
The annual social of the club followed,
during which somo tlmo was given to dis
cussing plans for next year. Tho meeting
closed with a luncheon.
It was decided that thu work for tho com
ing year should Include curront topics, art,
music, papers nnd general discussion, and
as a result of the annual election tho now
officers are: President, Mrs. II. V. I'lum
mcr; vlco president, Mrs. H. U. Craig;
recording secretary, Mrs. William Metcalf;
corresponding secretary, Miss Luclnda
Gamble; chairman of tho program commit
tee, Mrs. (1. Peterson; chnlrman of tho
hq'qio and homo committee, Mrs. 0. Clen
lans; treasurer, Mrs, 0. Wise.
The club will continue Its meetings during-
the summer.
The North Omaha Woman's club met on
Tuesday afternoon at tho homo of Mrs. II.
V. Plummcr on Uurdctto street, when tho
chief matter for the attention of tho mem
bers was tho reconsideration of the re
cently tendered withdrawal from tho Ne
braska Federation of Women's clubs. Since
tho announcement of this withdrawal two
weeks ago a number of the prominent mem
bers of the state organization have urgod
tho colored women to reconsider their de
rision and feeling that they had many
friends In tho federation that wore
willing to extend them the help they so
much needed, tho North Omaha club de
cided to withdraw Kb resignation and In
structed tho secretary to notify the state
corresponding secretary to that effect.
Mrs. II. V. I'lummer was chosen the
club's delegate to the convention of tbo
National Association of Colored Women,
which convenes In Buffalo In July, tho club
deciding to pay all of their expenses.
Wcdensday, Juno S, has been decided
upon as tho Visiting Nurses' day at the
Ilsaton-McOlnn soda fountnln, when the
members of that organization will be In
charge and recelvo all of the proceeds,
which aro to be dovotcd to their work.
and spoke briefly of tho object of tho meet
ing. Itev. E. K. Trefi made tho address of
the afternoon, tnklng as his RUbJect, "Tho
Public School nnd Good Citizenship." He
said that he observed with pleasure that
tho gathering was so largely composed
of mothers insteud of tho young girls and
old matdri that usually constituted the
largo part of tho audience of tho averago
so-called "mothers' " meeting nnd ho be
lieved that much benefit to all concerned
must be derived from such gatherings of
mothers. Ho expressed It as his opinion
that tho nation's futuro depended upon tho
mothers of tho mlddlo class and said that
In tho raising of their boys these mothers
might dictate tho nation's futuro as thoy
would, Ho urged the women to realize
their duty to their children aside from
their physical wants, to visit the school
nnd become acquainted with tho teacher to
wham they trusted their child and then
supplement her work with the right kind
of home training.
Thero wero also several musical numbers,
a plono solo by Mrs. Porter Garrett and
a song by Miss Pearl Ktlcy, after which
came the social hour, during which Iced
lemonade was served by the teachers.
Tho Omaha Woman's club will hold Its
annual meeting tomorrow, when nn unusual
amount of business will como up for con
sideration, tho list Including twenty-six
separate matters. With this meeting the
club will adjourn for the summer to meet
again In October?
Tho last meeting of tho kindergarten
directors will bo held at tho city hall on
Tuesday evening, when there will be a
general discussion of plans for next year's
procram. Tho Odyssy class held its last
meeting last week, tho work proving so
profltablo and Interesting that many of
tbo members were In favor of continuing
tho some study next y.ar.
Tho Uit of the sorlos of co-operative
meetings given by tho educational depart
ment of tho Woman's club and tho teach
ers and mothers of tho various schools
was held at Vinton school on Friday oven
lng nt 3 o'clock, which was attended by a
large representation of tho roothors of tho
district and members of the club. The
school was prettily trimmed with flowers
In nddltlon to Its pictures nnd permanent
wall decorations and an Interesting pro
gram had boen arranged by the teachers,
the first number of which was a song by
tho sixth grado, followed by a quartot of
second grado pupils. Mrs. E. 0. McOllton
of tho Woman's club was the first speaker
The national convention of the Woman's
Suffrago association will open In Minne
apolis on Thursday morning. May 30, and
continue In session until Wednesday even
ing, Juno r., and whllo many of tho meet
ings scheduled for the summer will be moro
largely nttended, owing to the fact that
they will bo held In Buffalo, It Is doubtful
If any of them will attract as widespread
Interest as the Minneapolis meeting. First
of all, tho convention Is u working body and
for this reason as the organization haR
grown tho representation In the national
meeting has been decreased to prevent Its
ever becoming unwieldy, for while the work
of tho executlvo coramttteo Is most effective
It Is upon tho floor of the convention that
tho real questions of tho organization aro
settled. In addition to the brilliant women
found among tho national officers, tho state
delegates, being appointed, as they ar, by
tho stato executive committee, aro com
posed of the strongest women of tho as
sociation, nnd this fact, combined with tho
convention's method of working, has al
ways attracted a large representation of
the press, This representation will bo larger
than usual this year and will Include women
from nearly every state In the union.
The meeting this year Is of unusual In
terest to Nebraska women as It Is to this
state that tho association has been di
recting special attention of late, nnd be
cause they stand for suffrage pure and slm
plu some of tho largest and strongest
woman's clubs of the state havo declined to
federato with tho stato organization of
woman's clubs.
This year New York has tho largest rep
resentation of any of tho states, it having
twonty-nlno delegates. Iowa has twenty-six
and Nebraska comes third with eleven; Col
orado, Illinois and Wisconsin each havo ten
and Kansas, Missouri nnd Minnesota soven
each and North Dakota five. Nino of the
eleven from Nebraska havo boen appointed,
they being Mesdames Clara A. Young, stato
president, of Broken Dow; Ida L. Dcnney,
G. C, Latta and 0. B, Bowers of Tcknmnh,
A. J. Marblo and C. F. Norrls of Tabls
Hock, H. M. Pendleton and M. J. Warner of
Nebraska City, Myrtlo Marble of Humboldt,
Lizzie M. Powers of Chadron and Miss
Laura A. Gregg of Omaha, the first nnd
last being delegates by virtue of their office,
In nddltlon to these, thero will be a good

MR. M CLELLAND RECOVERING
former Oiunlin lltmliira Mnn t'on
vnlrnrrnt After Operntlnn
for Apiiondlrltlii,
Robert McClelland, now of Tabor, la.,
but formerly a well known business man
of Omaha, Is at the Presbyterian hospital
recovering from an operation for appendi
citis. Two years ago he had the aamo
ailment and recovered without an opera
tion, but since then has had a recurrence
of the symptoms, which made nn operation
advlcnblc.
Tho many friends of Mr. McClelland will
be pleased to know that he Is now out of
dangor. It is largely through his efforts
that the Presbyterian hospital Is In exist
ence, for during the yenrs of business de
pression ho never relaxed his efforts while
others were compelled to wlthdrnw their
support.
South Omaha News
Two or three matters of importance are
now before the Commercial club nnd It is
expected thnt from this tlmo on the meet
ings will grow In Interest. A proposition
has heen made to open Archer avenue from
Thirteenth to Fifteenth streets. The owners
of tho property hold a tax title and the
desire Is that they be permitted to da
their own grading and use the dirt taken
from the street to fill lots abutting. After
tho grading of these two blocks Is com
pleted tho street Is to be dedicated to the
city. In this way the owners will escape
assessment when It comes to creating a
gr.idlng district for tho opening of N street.
With the wny the land lays now tho grad
ing of these two blocks on Archer avenuo
would not assist In tho least the approach
to the river, neither will It help to any
extent tho opening of a direct route to
Thirteenth street.
Itcsldents In tho eastern portion of the
city aro greatly pleased over statements
mnde by ofllcers of the Omaha Street Hall
way company In connection with tho ex
tension of tho Thirteenth street car lino
to Missouri avenuo nnd thence west to
Twenty-fourth street. It Is understood
thnt work on this extension will be com
menced as soon as President Murphy re
turns from his eastern trip. The lino will,
It Is stated, run west on Missouri avenuo,
where It will make a Jog and continue
westward on L street to Twonty-fourth
street. When this work is completed tnore
will bo two transportation lines out of
South Omaha nnd the congested trafflc on
the Twenty-fourth Btrcet line will bo
greatly relieved.
Tho entertainment of about 600 freight
agents In the early part of June Is occupy
ing the 'nttcntlon of the officers of tho
Commercial club Just now. Arrangements
will bo made to serve luncheon to the
visitors after on Inspection of the stock
yards and packing plants. On account of
the large number to bo entertained the
club will nrrango to divide tho party at
lunch time, immediately after luncheon
tho party will bo returned to Omaha on
special trains.
For the work of the club to bo conducted
during the coming year, President Freltog

To Prove what Swamp-Root will do for YOU, Every
Reader of The Bee May Have a Sample Bottle
Sent Free by Mail.
It used to bo considered that only urin
ary and bladder troubles were to bo traced
to tho kidneys, but now modern science
proves that nearly all diseases have their
beginning In tho disorder of theso most
Important organs.
Tho kidneys filter and purify tho blood
that Is their work.
Thcrofore, when your kidneys are wenlt
or out of order, you can understand how
quickly your entire body Is allected .and
how every organ seems to fall to do Its
duty.
If you aro sick or "feci badly," begin
taking tho famous new discovery, Dr.
Kilmer's Swamp-Root, becauso as soon as
your kidneys are well they will help all
the other organs to health. A trial will
convince anyone.
Among the many famous cjres of Swamp
Root Investigated ny The Bee, tho ono
which we publish this week for the benefit
of our readers speaks In tho highest terms
of the wonderful curative properties of this
great remedy. Mr, Robert Herner, 14 West
llith St . New York City, writes: i had
been suffering severely from kidney trouble.
All symptoms wero on band; my former
strength und power hnd left me, I could
hardly drag myself along. Even my mentul
capacity was giving out, and often 1
wished to die. it was then I saw nn ad
vertisement of vours In n New York paper,
but wuuld not have paid any attention to
it, had It noi promised a sworn guarantee
with every bottle of your mcdlclui', assert
ing that your Swamp-Hoot Is purely vege
tunic, und noes not contain nuy harmful
drugs, 1 am seventy years anil lour
mouths old, and with a gootl conscience 1
call recommend Swamp-Root to all sulfer
ers from kidney trmililcs. Four members
of my family have been using Swamp-Root
for four different kidney diseases, with tho
tame good results."
Truly yours, ROBERT BURNER.
Weak and unhealthy kidneys are re
sponsible for mauy kinds of diseases, and
If permitted to continue much suffering
with fatal results arc sure to follow. Kid
ney trouble Irritates the nerves, makes you
dizzy, restless, sleepless ond Irritable.

nnd obliges you to get up many times dur

rheumatism, gravel, catarrh of the bladder,
pain or dull ache lu the back, Joints and
