NEW GRADE FOR THE SCHOOLS Utmber Rbrt Smith Propom a Departure in Practice WILL EXTEND THE GRAMMAR COURSE Blovr la I lit end fit to llcllevr the IIIkIi KvIkmiI ntiil Aid the Ornilcn ll- HIvllIK I'UlilU Met ier I'liellltlu. At last nlRht's meeting of the school board Itoberl Smith Introduced ft reto liition providing for the creation of n ninth grade nt four of the grado school buildings In Omaha, the buildings to be selected prpbnbly being tho Cass, tho I.o throp, tho Park and Comonlus. It Is the object of tho creation of this additional grade In these four buildings to bring to the patrons of the school a form of educa tion which they cannot receive short of tho High school nnd to provide In n man ner for these chlldron who ennnot take a course at the High school. It will be different from the regular ninth grade Ht tho High school In that It will bo nn Attempt to equip the chlldrou for practical work rather to lay the foundation for further study. The course will bo elective, tho children leaving tho eighth pradc at the grnmmar school to havo the prlvllego of taking the ninth grade at that school or entering the High school for the four-year course. As outlined by Its author, tho branches to bo taught In this additional grnde will bo bookkeeping, commercial arithmetic, elementary geom etry and algebra, which studies will bo continued for tho full year of the course. Half-year courses will be maintained In rhetoric, English lltornturc, general his tory and civil government. Incrcnxe Cost of gcliunla. It Is estimated that tho additional cost of this course will be In the neighborhood of $3,000 annually, requiring tho services of four additional teachers at those build ings, but possibly resulting In tho dropping of one of the tcachera at tho High school who may be assigned to work In the new grade. The framor ot tho resolution be lloves that such a grado would greatly In crease the attendance In tho public schools of pupils who have now completed the grammar school course nnd (fro unable to enter tho High school and that this grade which may bo known as the commercial grado will become one of the popular fea tures of the Omaha school system. Tho resolution was roforred to Superin tendent Pearse and tho commlttco on boundaries. Rev. John Albert Williams and other representative colored citizens presented a communication to tho board asking that an Investigation bo made of statements which Miss Ivy need, teacher In tho eighth grade at tho Cass school, Is snld to havo ruado concerning negroes. Tho communication was referred to tho committee on teachers. Tho architect for tho board was in structed to prepare preliminary plans for an eight-room brick building to bo erectod on tho Monmouth park site nt a cost of $25,000. Teachers were allowed pay for day's va cation granted tho schools nn account of tho death of President McKlnley. A brick walk was ordered along the cast nnd south sides of tho Pacific school build ing. Tho cost of tho Improvement will be $400. Members of the commlttco on buildings and property agreed to pay visits Thurs day afternoon to tho Vinton school and the High school. At tho Vinton slto ad Joining lots, which have been offered for sale, will bo Inspected and nt tho High school tho commlttco will discuss plans for restoring tho grounds, which havo boon torn up during the construction ot the new building.

It you feel tired try a bottle of Cook's Imperial Extra Dry Champagne; boquet unrivalled. "rain in ttie head nnd back " is a form of suffering with which so many women ire familiar. Often this pain is asso ciated with nervousness, sleeplessness und loss of appetite. The cause of such Buffering is generally to be. traced to derangement of the womanly function, or a diseased condition of the lelicate womanly organs. In such cases the action of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is marvelous in the prompt reliel of pain and permanent cure of disease. It regulates the peri odic function, dries disagreeable drains, heals inflammation and ulceration, and cures female weakness. It cures when all other means have been tried in vain.

"The politi cal campaign Is warmer In Holt countr this season than In any other part ot the state," said he. "All sort of charges are brought against nearly all of the candi dates and from being a campaign of princi ple It Is one of distinctly personality. The reception we gave Senator Kerns of Montana up at O'Neill last week was one of the most enthusiastic receptions ever Ac corded any one In the county. Mr. Kerns at one time resided with his parents In the county and was well known to many of the old residents." Mr. Dcavcr says that In both Holt and fioyd counties there Is an abundant crop ot hay and small grain, and that In the latter county corn was also of large yield and high grnde. He Insists that Tloyd county got the best corn crop In the state, saying that the average yield was from flfty-flvo to sixty-five bushels an acre and that In many places It showed seventy-five bushels. The price of feed Is high there, as every where, but people are so generally prosper ous that they do not feel downcast about this Item.

Woman's Work in Club and Charity In compliance with the recommendation of the executive board of the state federa tion that each club of the federation set aside ono day each year for reports and work for tho advancement of the state or ganization, the Omaha Woman's club cel ebrated Its federation day yesterday aft ernoon. In addition to the presence of thi great majority of Its own members, the club was fortunate In having present rive of the stato officers, Mcsdames Draper Smith, state president: C. S. Loblngler, corrctpondlng secretary: Coras of Falrbury, treasurer; Bushnell of Lincoln, auditor,-ana Miss McCarn of Fremont, recording secre- ary, Mrs. Durland of Norfolk, vice presi dent, and Mrs. Stoutenborough of Platts- mouth being unable to attend. The meeting was held In the auditorium f tho First' Congregational church and the first business was tho report of tho rooms committee, to the offect that It had been thought best for the club to rent only the lecture rooms this year, at $500 per an num, and when the occasion demands the use of the auditorium to rent It at $12.50 for each time. Iast year tho club paid $800 for tho use of the church and, owing to the philanthropic work that It Is to carry on this year, it was deemed advisable to reduce th rent na ono of the means of adding to the ccessary funds. Tho meeting was held In the lecture rooniH last time and so much dissatisfaction was expressed that when the report was made few were In favor of Its adoption. A long discussion followed In which the majority of the women expressed themselves In favor ot retaining the wholo church and If more funds were required for the philanthropic work of raising them as the club has frequently raised money for thcr purposes In the past. Accordingly the recommendation was not adopted and the committee was Instructed to confer with the trustees of tho church to try to secure hotter terms. Mrs. W. II. Wither next gave the report of the philanthropic committee, Tho women havo canvassed the First ward and decided that the Chapel ot the Carpenter at Third and William streets afford the best open ing for tho proposed auxiliary club for women and girls. Miss Magce nnd Mite Arnout, who have had charge of the Indus trial work there, were both present and spoke of tho conditions of the district. Miss Magcp said that for lack ot funds tho In dustrial work there bad had to be dropped and that at present there are about 100 girls and women rc&dy to go on with the advanced clare.es In sewing and cooking. She made an earnest plea that these girls be trained In domestic affairs rather than be allowed to drift Into the stores and shops tor lack of qualification tor other service. Tho matter was left with the committee to decide. Mrs. C. C. Delden, on behalf of the edu cational committee, urged tho women to post themselves regarding the school board election nnd to votj wher. tho time ontno. The report of the mirrbcrshlp committee showed twenty-ana members to have quali fied since the last meeting and thirteen now names to have been proposed. This concluded the afternoon's business and ... . .. 1 ft tho program .as then taken up. Mrs. J. H. ..

The work will bo experimental at first and It It Is found that too many of tho spawn and fry of the game fish arc being harmed and killed 4by the dragging It will be discontinued and the plan abandoned permanently. State- Deputy Oame Warden Slmpklns traversed the waters of Cut-Off lake last Tuesday and pronounced It the best place for tho propagation of fish and later for tho hooking of them In tho state. He promised his every assistance toward pro tecting these waters and Improving them. Hi slated that ho would at once furnish the Douglas County Fish Protective associa tion with a permit giving them leave to seine or net tho lake to remove the prey ing fish. This permit la dally expected to arrive and a committee of Ave, appointed espe cially for that purpose, will at once pro ceed with tho work on Its receipt. Uy n unanimous vote of the fishermen who at tended last night's meeting A. C. Harte, the chairman, was empowered to appoint such a committee, he to be ono member of It. Mr. Harte will determine upon his fel low committeemen today and notify them In person. One of the conditions existent upon tho legal performance of this dragging Is that tho fish removed must be given to stato In stitutions, such as the different homes and asylums and institution!) of education for those crippled In the different senses. Warden Slmpklns said, however, thnt suffi cient ndi might be sold to defray tho ox pcnEO of the seining. Seiner Kimle tlir liitir. A long discussion concerning tho differ ent feasible methods of Improving this property and at tho same time protecting It occurred last night.

To the Editor ot The Bee: The ninth annual convention of the National Household Economics' asso ciation opened under unfavorable condi tions, both as to weather and attendance. Many of the prominent speakers on the program failed to put In an appearance and the counter attractions of an exposi tion city were very much In evidence. The Now York state meeting on Monday did not materialize on account ot the state president's Illness. Tuesday morning an executive session of the national was held In the Woman's In dustrial building, 86 Dolawaro avenue, Mrs. Linda Hull Lamed, president ot the asso ciation. In the chair, at which a vast amount of uslness was transacted. The ruling In which western women will be most Interested Is that of making stato vice presidents and all affiliated societies responsible to tho national for $5 annual dues, to be collected from local depatt mcnts. The Pbolps Publishing company, through their editor, Mr. Lower, mado tho association a generous offer regarding tho printing of leaflets and reports, which, after much discussion and un earneat plea from their seines at the time and more of them In their boats. They woro recognized, but no action has yet .been begun against them. Tho advUablllty of this was discussed, but It was determined to do nothing at present the association deciding to start zealously to work against all such law breakers first and show them that It meant business, then to prosecute right nnd left. The difficulty In this, arising from tl fact that tho lako Is between two states, was discussed. Those arrested by Ne braska officials Insist that they were on the Iowa side and vice versa. One of two schemes will be adopted to circumvent such people. Either tho watcher on each side will be sworn In under the laws ot both states or both will be present In the courts on cither side at trials to give testi mony under the laws of either state. WOMAN WANDERS IN DELIRIUM Mm, Kinney l,enve Home nnd (iltes llrr rnnilly Unit n Son re. Mrs. Li. A. Finney, C3 years old. left her home at 617 Pierce street shortly beforo noon Sunday under circumstances which led the family to believe she has com mitted suicide by leaping Into the Mis souri river. August 14 she fell from a itreet car and sustained an Injury to the head. Ever since then she has been mel ancholy and has frequently threatened to drown herself. Late Sunday afternoon some fishermen In a boat near Lone Tree, a short distance north ot Olbson station, saw a woman wad ing Into the water. As she was then near a dangerous eddy they shouted a warn ing to her nnd she turned back, disappear ing in n clump of willows. Thev pulled to the river bank and cnught sight of her crouching under the foliage, ns If trying to hide. They then rode away, dismissing the Incident from their minds. About midnight of Sunday the woman's husband, a mall carrier, reported his wife's disappearance to the police and nn officer was sent down the river to Investigate. Ho found the fishermen who had seen her In the river Hnd they conducted him to tin spot where she had crouched under the willows. H y aid of a lantern they found shoo prints lending both to and from tho copse; those leading away pointed toward the river and disappeared In tho sand at Its margin. "I 3aw my mother leaving the house about 11 o'clock Sunday forenoon." said tho son, "but thought nothing of It. I supposed she wns going to the store to mako n purchase. When night came nnd she didn't return wc began to got worried and made Inquiries about her among the neighbors, but none of them know nnvthlng about, her." LaBt evening she returned home shortly nftcr dark. She had been wondering about nil night and all day nnd was completely exhausted as the result of exposure. She Is as yet unable to give any account of her wanderings. the vice president, was accepted. The welcomes and responses were of the regulation order, the annual address brief nnd the convention proceeded to make the most of spenkcrs present, nmong them being Prof. W. O. Atwntcr. who In a clearly defined manner gavo the members of the National Household Economics' association a definite outline of the work they might do, a concise, logical argument In favor of woman's training for scientific homo making. Miss Martha Van' Rensselaer, ed itor of Woman's Reading-Course of Cornell university, gavo a report of her work among the farmers' wives of New York. The ex penses) of this course arc paid by an ap propriation from the state for university extension of agriculture. Wednesday the convention was tho guest nf tho Pan-American and the meeting was held In tho New York stato building, at which Mr. Melvillo Dewey of Lako Placid conference nnd Mrs, Lyng of New York City were the speakers. A reception and 5 o'clock tea were given In tho Woman's building, but a pouring rain prevented a large attendance. Thursday morning, by Invitation nf Mr. Perky, u trip to tho "Natural Food con servatory" and Niagara Falls was enjoyed. Thursday nftcrnoon tho annual election of ofllcerb wns held, resulting In the presi dent, vice president nnd recording sccru tary'.a re-olcctlon, and Mrs. Burroughs of Erie, Pa., to fill the office of corresponding secretary. Four new directors Mrs. Nel lie Hedzlo Jones of Kentucky, Mrs. Arthur B. Novllle of Wisconsin, Miss Isabel Dul lard of Chicago and Mrs, Stewart of In diana were chosen to serve for a term of four years, Several new committees were formed, among them that of press and publicity, with Mrs. MaoMurphy of Omaha, chairman. Mrs. Evans of Chicago was ono of tho most forceful speakers present nnd It Is said Is In line for tho presidency another year. Prof. Hughes of Toronto, Canada, wns tho star speaker for Thursday evening, but the plea of Mrs. Hunt of Lewis In stitute, Chicago, for simpler living and decorations met n cordial reception from her hearers. . This closed the ninth annual meeting of an organization which was bcrn In the west and, while for n season Its center hns moved eastward, wo feel sure will re turn to Its own ere long. It was a recog nized fact that Texas and Nebraska were the banner stntrs for work actually ac complished nnd for enthusiasm. We missed many of the old familiar faces those of Mrs. Henrotln, Dr, Mnry E. Green, Mes dames Gone, Gates nnd Whitney, to sny nothing nf our former secretary, Miss Marshall of Chicago. We, wero consoled by hearing Mrs. Helen Campbell of Bos ton, the grandmother of the association, as she styles herself, a woman of rare culture and broad-minded views, whose address was as interesting as It was Instructive nnd by all present conceded to bo the gem of the convention.

Neola was reached forty-five minutes ahead of tho time of tho westbound train and while waiting for the arrival of that train the party visited tho town and chatted on the depot platforms. Surprise Inr Hie Count. It was I o'clock when tho train bear ing the distinguished party arrived at Neola. On that train every member of tho party was nwaro ot tho reception which wns to bo given Mr. Creighton ex cept that person himself, who was kept In prqfound Ignorance that anything un usual was Intended. As the train drew Into tho station tho band began to play "Home, Swot Home," and 100 voices took up the refrain.
