Which Deserve Attention.
We have received from the University
Publishing company at Lincoln, a text book
for public schools entitled "New Elemen
tary Agriculture." Thin book la compiled
by Profs. Bessey, Bruner and Bweiey of
the University of Nebraska. It contains
1M pages and Is Intended to cover most of
the natural phenomena found In dally Ufa
on the farm. It begins with plant growth
nd takee up the principal crops grown on
the farm and In the garden, gives hints on
cultivating the noil, rotation of crops,
treats of fungus growths and varieties
of the common farm crops like wheat and
corn. Prof. Bruner contributes some of
the most Important chapters on Insects,
useful and Injurious. Me gives the life
history of the honey bee and the silk
worm. His chapter on the birds that are
common In this country would alone be
worth the price of the book. From It
the children can recognize the birds that
fly around them. lie does not forget to
tell how useful they are In keeping the
Insects In check and counsels the children
to preserve rather than to destroy them.
Prof. Swezev has cnnfrlhuted several rhnn.
tore on the weather on the farm. H tells
what makes the wind blow and the cause
of the wind's changing from one point
of the compass to another, why south
winds, bring warm and north winds cold
weather, cold waves and blizzards. Another
chapter Is devoted to cloudy and rainy
weather and their cause. Snow and hall
come In for their share of- attention.
Thunder storms, tornadoes and weather
predictions are explained. The different
breeds of all domestlo animals are taken
MP and thetr good and bad qualities ex
plained. TV. K. Kowlef, state superin
tendent of Instruction, gives the work his
endorsement In the following manner:
"The book Is well written and admirably
well adapted to the higher . grammar
grades of village and rural schools. I
believe teaching elementary agriculture
will Increase Interest and Improve Instruc
tion In elementary science and vice versa.
A closer relation between home and school
may be established by teaching In the
school tho Interests and duties of life on
the farm and in the home. We cannot
teach In the school room the "how" of
farming, but we may teach the "why."
Instruction In agriculture may assist the
teacher In showing the 'pupil the relation
of school to his dally life; may assist In
connecting the practical In life with the
theoretical In school."
The charmingly colored eover Illustrating
a spirited foot ball soene prepares House
keeper readers for the many good things
In this month's magazine. One of the more
notable artistic features Is the full page

traying the end of summer days. '.'A Ro

an interesting Incident In the family of the
Chinese commissioner to the St. Louis ex

Is the new department, "His Royal High

In the Review of Reviews for October are
two articles on the problem of the country
sohool which deserve special attention.
Prof. Hays of the University of Minnesota
writes on "Our Farmer Youth and the
Publlo Schools,", showing what Is being
done In many parts of the country, through
school consolidation and the development
Of agricultural high schools, to give the
country boy and girl the advantages of a
connected, well adjusted and rational sys
tem of publlo Instruction, while Superin
tendent Kern of Rock ford. 111., in a brief
Illustrated article, gives the results of prac
tical efforts among farmer boys In his
country In the direction of interesting the
boya in the business of farming and In
teaahlng them the things worth knowing

the title of a lively article in tne ociomr
Booklovers Magazine, describes minutely
the wonderful and vastly expensive sys
tem now prevailing In a first-rate telephone
exchange, with numerous photographic
illustrations from actual scenes. Every
step In the process Is made clear, as well
as the severe framing which "the telephone
girl" undergoes to tit her for swift and
almost automatic action, and the oppor
tunities given her for rest and recreation.
With the October number The World
Today appears under the editorial dlreo
tlon of Prof. Bhaller Mathews of the Uni
versity of Chicago. No magazine of the
month can show more timely articles or
more distinguished contribute. Among
them are Israel Zangwill. on "The Future
of the Jews;" Governor Aycock of North
Carolina, on "The Disfranchisement of the
Negro;" President Oilman of the Carnegie
Institution, on "Bible Lessons in the Ele
mentary Schools;" Prof. Judson of the
University of Chicago, on the "Balkan
States and the Powers;" Mrs. Ellen M.
Henrotln, on "Women's Clubs;" Arthur H.
Smith, on the "Outlook In China." An
article by Dr. Edmund Buckley upon
rhlcairo at the End of a Century,", sets
forth the pre-eminence of the western
metropolis In an exceedingly vivid fashion.
The number Is profusely Illustrated. An
especially Interesting department Is "The
Making of Tomorrow," in which Is gath
ered together an extraordinary amount of
Information concerning progress all over
the world. Other new departments are,
"Men of the Month," "The World's
Thought" and "Books' and Reading," vln
which, by the way, is a delightful little
essay on "Books I Have Met," by Martha
Baker Dunn. It appears that Chicago has
at last a monthly magazine of the first
rank.
The- October Atlantic contains among
other papers two articles of marked value
and national importance; Representative
McCall contributes to the Atlantic a power
ful political article, "The Power of the
Senate" meaning its usurpations taking
for his text the startling valedictory words
of Speaker (to be) Cannon at the close of
the last session. He arraigns the undemo
cratic characteristics of the senate and
forecasts a conflict to come between the
houses, which he predicts will be decided
"In favor of those great principles of popu
lar government which underlie the Amer
ican commonwealth." Booker T. Washing
ton contributes "The Future of Industrial
Training," in which he describes the evo
lution through which the south and the
negro have been passing since the rebel
lion, believing, as he always has, that
there is no color line in commerce and that
in Industrial training lies the solution of
our national race problem and the salva
tion of his race.
The October number of the National
Magazine of Boston Is high-water mark
for that periodical. Among the contrlbu
ters of special articles and current com
ment are Poultney Blgelow, Senator Till
man, Dallas Lore Sharp, Charles Fergu
son, Dr. Felix Oswald, Major R. S. Porter,
Colonel James Matlack Scovel, George T.

Also on the tenth day of this seventh

Lord. I-evlUcus xxlll, 25.
The Jews count the beginning of their
holidays from the time the stars appear in
the evening, and consequently the first ser
vices In celebration of the day of atone
ment were held at Temple Israel Wednes
day and continued throughout yesterday.
The character of these services is grave and.
solemn. The service Wednesday night was
practically repeated yesterday from :30
until 1. It Included an eloquent address
by Rabbi Simon on the subject, "Be a
Man," and some excellent singing. At 8
o'clock the afternoon service began, at
which the rabbi delivers another addresa
on "The Destiny of Man." Prayers are
selected from the prayer book. A memorial
service begins later In the afternoon, when
the destiny of human life Is discussed.
Longfellow's poem. "The Day la Done,"
furnishes th rubject for this memorial ser
vice. Miss Minnie Meyer sings a solo.
David as an Illustration.
David had committed a great sin, said
the rabbi In his address last night, and the
prophet reproached him. The prophet first
presented an allegorical story . of a rich
man with many sheep, and a poor man,
his neighbor, with only one pet lamb. In
order to prepare a feast for guests he took
the single lamb of the poor man and
killed It. The prophet then asked David
what the punishment should be In such
a case, and David replied, "He deserves
death." The prophet then answered him,
"Thou art the man."
Rabbi Simon said there are few among
us whom the prophet could not ap
proach in the same way and with the
same result, and he asked that every man
on this day if on no other day In the year,
look down Into his heart and ask him
self the question, 'What sin have I com
mitted?" and request God to tell htm in
what way he should atone. He said there
is no man among us but who may find
himself guilty. If not of this crime, of
some other, and he appealed to everyone
When they went home before allowing
their head to rest upon their pillow to
spend a few minutes In silent meditation,
asking themselves the question, "What
have I done?" In part the address was as
follows:
The story of the world's progress Is the
story of man's rise from sin, and through
sin. You mav never have robbed a man
of his land, but do you walk In sheep's
clothing? You may not have stabbed Inno
cence or robbed virginity. Think of the
worm wnere there are Iambs alauchtered.
human lambs. Think of the women who
have been thrown out Into the cold to
suffer with no word of kindness to sustain
them. Are you guilty? Whether you are
strong or weak, the prerogative of sin is
yours. Have you used it? Come tonight
and be honest with yourself, delve deeply
Into the recesses of your heart and cast out
me sin.
Bin and Self.
We all have our eveiine. Rome will mv
"I was born with a constitution which re
quires stimulants," but Is that an excuse
for drinking to excess? How many men
who will try to find an excuse for their
own conduct will attempt to find one for
their neighbor? You cry out to heaven
against your neighbor Who-, might do the
same and show you what an apt pupil of
yours he Is.
Sin Is not universal because It belongs to
each man. You cannot say, "I raise my
children for my own Dleasure." If vou
violate the law in raising them It will step
In and take them awny from you. You
cannot throw a stone with the Intention of
Its going twenty feet and hit some one ten
feet distant, and excuse yourself' by say
ing, "I did not mean to do It." No man
has ever sinned unto himself alone In all
the world's history. Often your family has
to bear the brunt, and again your children
inhorlt the odium. Remember, there are
thousands of consciences Just as sensitive
hs yours. You people of Jewish faith know
better than anyone living how Israel has
suffered because of the sin, the rascality,
the weakness of one man. You must not
only be as oL you must be better than
your enow man. That la tne standard to
set for yourself. Each and everyone of us
should feel that this day comes home to us
especially. I bring you this message to
night, think It over. Ask God what you
have done of sin, of hypocrisy, of decep
tion to rob you of peace and happiness, or
the peace and happiness of some friend.
Spend a few moments In such serious
thought.
CARPENTER'S BACK IS BROKEN
Fall from Low Roof Resalts la Se
rlons Injary to Albert F,
Qross.
While working on the roof of a house
at 1830 North Seventeenth street yesterday
afternoon, Albert F. Gross, who resides at
1217 South Fifteenth street, lost hla balance
and fell to the ground, a distance of about
ten feet. He was picked up unconscious
and removed to the Wise Memorial hos
pital, where an examination developed the
fact that he had sustained a fracture of
the backbone at the second vertebra. Hj
also had a severe gash on the side of his
head, and the third rib on the right aide
was broken.
A more thorough examination was made
last night by Drs. Allison and MocDlarmld,
and It was decided to postpone the opera

today. At the second examination it was
found that Gross Is completely paralyzed
from his chest downward, and that he
has lost all sense of feeling In the lower
part of his body. Similar cases are Bald
by the attending physicians to be very
rare, and it is seldom that the patients

Last July Frank Rogers, . son of J. F.
Rogers, 4340 Maple street. Instructor' fn
painting and art at the Deaf and Dumb in
stitute, bade adieu to the home circle and
went west to seek his fortune. Frank is
only 17, but possessed of the proper spirit
and pluck landed In Wyoming and soon
found employ mes-t on a ranch. Wl n he
left home he had not taken all his money
with him, and while at Cheyenne sent home
for funds, which were forwarded, two
drafts for IS each being sent him, drawn
in his brother's name. J. A. Rogers, his
elder brother, is a bookkeeper at the Omaha
National bank, and it Is merely a coincident
that one of the directors of the bank bears
the same name and Initials as J. F. Rogers,
Frank's father.

How the Negro Worked.
The Rogers' first heard from Sylvester
Ages early in August. He wrote them a
letter in whloh he evinced a great interest
In Frank and promised to take care of him,
but the family now learn that Frank
Rogers never knew him. From Cheyenne,
Wyo., Frank Rogers went to Ogden, Utah,
and was followed by the negro, who ar
riving there and not finding the young man
telegraphed Mrs. Rogers that her boy had
met with an accident, but that he would

great hopes for the future.
On September IS laat Mrs. Rogers re
ceived two telegrams from Ages In one
night. In one of which he asked for a re
mittance of tS to help him find her boy
Frank. She became thoroughly alarmed
and presented the case to Chief Donahue.
She knew that her boy waa at Woodland,
Cal., working on a fruit farm, for he had
written her from there. As a result Ages'
search for Frank Rogers came to an abrupt
end at Wlnnemueca, Nev., whither he had
gone from Carson City, believing he would
find young Rogers there. Chief Donahue
had Mrs. Rogers answer Ages' telegram
and gave the sherif of Wlnnemueca due
notice, which resulted In the negro's appre

EXPLAINS THE. GAS CONTRACT
Councilman. Huntington Telia Pros.
peet Hill Improvers Wlr .Fran
chise Was Extended.
Prospect Hill Improvers were out In small
number last evening, but an interesting
meeting was held, and an explanation of
why the city cpuncll extended i the gas
company's lighting franchise! was asked
for and granted by . Councilman C. P.
Huntington, who was present.
Mr. Huntington said the prime' reason for
granting the extension was to place both
lighting companies on an equal, footing.
The electric lighting franchise had yet two
and a half years of life and two years had
been added to the gas franchise.. This waa
to pave the way for municipal mnershlp
of all lighting plants, or to secure the best
terms in granting a new franqbiae, provid
ing for both gas and electrio Ughta.
Messrs.. Hurst .and Dally, vrqembera of
the club, were t)Ot pleased with the action
of . . j council, and did not hesitate to
say so In terms meant to ooAvew their die-
pleasure. They considered the action hasty
and unwarranted, and Mr. Hurst said: "I
would not expect to get asked for, two bids
from two parties and then award the con
tract to one of them without -consulting
the other or giving him a chance to com
pete." , .
Mr. Huntington replied to the aggrieved
Improvers by telling them that under an
agreement entered Into by and between the
electric lighting company and the gas com
pany no bids .were to be submitted to the
council until Mr. Nash returned . from a
trip abroad. This seemed to modify the
pent up feelings of the two' residents of
the hill, and Mr. Huntington told the Im
provers -a few facts regarding, the city's
finances and about, the street and side
walk repairs under contemplation. He
said: , '
"The $200,000 bonds we understand from
the city attorney are not available for
current expenses, and we . are - facing a
crisis because we have , not ,been able to
collect a matter of $260,000 or $300,000 from
tho railroads. All city funds are short
and we will have to -wait until another
levy la made unless this $200,000 may bi
used. It would cost $60,000 to put th
streets of Omaha In proper condition. Wi
are extending the work In the1' outlying
wards as fast a possible and will keep on
doing so."
In conclusion Mr. Huntington,, told the
club to select representatives to ' attend
each and all council meetings and take
note of all there Is flone. -' These repre
sentatives could also . present their, wanU
to the council. The club tendered a voU
of thanks to the street commissioner, an
the Board of Public works for the. mannel
