(From a Staff Correspondent.)
WASHINGTON. March 11 (Special Tele
gramsMax Baehr will not be removed.
After a conference with the president, Mr.
Rosewater made this statement. Mr. Rose
water had a conference with the president
this morning, covering a wide range of
subjects, and Incident to that conference
the question of Nebraska's quota for con
aular positions came up. The editor of The
Bee brought forward the recent remoral
of Mr. Baehr, who Is now consul at Clen
fuegos, Cuba, by the appointment of a
man from Illinois. The president, after
hearing Mr. Rosewater, made the state
ment that Mr. Baehr would retain his
place.
In connection with the conference Mr.
Rosewater suggested that much of the
trouble existing between the senate and
the president. If such trouble was definite,
was due to the fact that the senate was
not elected by the people, and he suggested
that article B of the constitution, bearing
directly upon that proposition, should
have greater consideration than was being
paid to It by the several states. Six states
have already, through their legislatures,
declared In favor of electing senators by
direct vote of the people. Should thirty
states, through their legislatures, declare
for an amendment to the constitution In
favor of electing senators by direct vote
It would compel the senate of the United
States to declare that a vote should be
taken upon this proposition.
It is not expected that the senate will
on its own Initiative declare the people
shall vote upon the constitutional amend
ment giving the several states the right
to elect senators by direct vote, but Mr.
Rosewater Is firmly of the opinion there
Is a growing sentiment In favor of the
direct selection by the votes of the electors
instead of by the votes of legislators. Ne
braska, Michigan and several other states
have ranged up In favor of direct election
for senators and Mr. Rosewater believes
that If the president should Issue a proc
lamation In favor of the election of sena
tors by direct vote of the people there are
enough states which believe In the presi
dent to follow his wishes and through their
legislatures pass concurrent resolutions to
that effect.
Change at Winnebago.
The superintendent at the Winnebago
reservation Is to be transferred and the
agent at Pine Ridge is to take his place.
Senators Oppose Dobson.
Iowa senators are temporarily deferring
the confirmation of George L. Dobson of
Des Moines, former secretary of the state,
named to be consul at Nottingham, Eng
land. The entire republican organization of
Iowa Is up In arms over the nomination,
not so much because of anything against
Dobson, as that' he displaces Frank W.
Mahin of Muscatine, the only federal ap
pointee from the Second congressional dis
trict. Just redeemed from democracy. The
senators have sought the names of Dob
son's endorsers, but have been able to
learn only that the president appointed him
for his splendid oratorical services In Mis

ested In the politics of the coming Con'
tlnental congress to be held at Washing
ton, D. C, In April. There Is little doubt
that Mrs. C. S. Langworthy of Seward
will be elected state regent, for she Is so
generally popular that she has little If any
opposition. As for the office of president-
general the "Nebraska chapters are by no
means a unit. The representatives of the
political faction would like to see the con
etttutlon amended and Mrs. Charles Fair
banks re-elected president-general, because
as the wife of the vice president of the
United States che would be In position to
do what aearcely any other woman could
for the organization during the next four
years. Mrs. Fairbanks says she will not
accept a nomination even if the convention
makes It possible, but the rate at which
the "politicals" are planning on her seems
to indicate that they do not take her an
nouncement seriously. On the other hand,
the "anti-politicals'' are for the most part
favorable to Mrs. Donald McLean of New
York, and It Is said that as she gave way
for Mrs. Fairbanks before her supporters
will now require a like courtesy from Mrs.
Fairbanks' supporters, but In the mean
time a half dozen other women have come
up as candidates, which promises ill for
Mrs. McLean. Mrs. Dolllver of Iowa Is
among the mu?h talked of ones and would
of course rece've the support of her own
state, which would otherwise go to Mrs.
McLean. Nebraska has an aspirant for the
vice president-generalship In Mrs. Everett
of Lincoln, but there seem to be few in
the Omaha chapter who are at all assured
of her success If she is nominated, es
pecially as the state is not united In lta
preferences.
While the club columns are having a
great deal to say of late regarding "quar
ter" socials, birthday parties and like de
vices for raising money for benevolent
work, It may not be amiss to call attention
to the fact that for several years past
Omaha has hud several organizations of
women who meet socially, paying a regu
lar fee at each meeting, the proceeds to
be used for some benevolence. Among
these is the household economics depart
ment of the Woman's club, that holds a
dime social each month at the home of
some member. In years past a scholar
ship In domestic science at Bcllcvue col
lege and the maintenance of a cooking
class at the mission have been among
their special objects, and this year their
dimes are going to swell the shoe fund
of the Newsboys' home. Eighteen dollars
has been contributed eo far and that sum
will be considerably Increased before the
close of the club year. But aside from
the financial profits, there have been
other results of value to the department.
The acquaintance and sociability resulting
from the kenslngton afternoons have made
It one of the strongest In the club and
served to extend Its gospel of home
making. .
The following extract from the addTess
of Dr. Felix Adler before the recent meet
ing of the national child labor committee
re-echoes the argument against child labor
that has come from tho club women for
the last few years: "The one great posi
tive reason why child servitude should not
be permitted la a biological and an ethical
one. It is the need for the longer period
of Infancy and youth and the greater
preparation and care in development of the
higher order of human or animal life.
Arrested development means mal-develop-ment.
The child of stunted growth and
stunted mind does not stop short; It
goes wrong."
A recent edition of Charities, in Its re
port on concerted effort to check the
spread of tuberculosis, says: "Interest In
the - tuberculosis movement In Illinois has
been developed rapidly, owing to the work
of the committee of the Chicago Visiting
Nurses' association, and, in the last ten
months, of the State Medical society. A
state organization has been effected, fol
lowing a conference held In Chicago, which
was largely attended and at which a com
mittee representative of various medical
societies and charitable organizations was
appointed to draw up plans."

AN EASY WAY
To Keep Well.
It Is easy to keep well if we would only
observe each day a few simple rules of
health.
The all Important thing Is to keep the
stomach right, and to do this it is not
necessary to diet or to follow a set rule or
bill of fare. Such pampering simply makes
a capricious appetite and a feeling that
certain favorite articles of food must be
avoided.
Pror. Weichold gives pretty good advice
on this subject; he sas: "I am 68 years
old and have never had a serious illness,
and at the same time my life has been
largely an Indoor one, but I early discov
ered that the way to keep healthy was to
keep a healthy stomach, not by eating bran
crackers or dieting of any sort; on the con
trary I always cat what my appetite craves,
but dally for the past eight years I have
made it a practice to take one or two of
Btuart a Dyspepsia Tablets after each meal
and I attribute my robust health for a man
of my age to the regular dally use ot
Stuart's Tablets.
My phyBiclan first advised me to use
them because he said they were perfectly
harmless and were not a secret patent
medicine, but contained only the natural
digestive, peptones and dlustase, and after
using them a few weeka 1 have never
ceased to thank Dim for his advice.
1 honestly believe the habit of taking
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after meals is
the real health habit, because their use
brings health to the sick and ailing and
preserves health to the well and strong."
Men and women past fifty years of age
need a safe digestive after meals to In
sure a perfect digestion and to ward off
disease, and the safest, best known and
ruost widely used la Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets.
They are found In every well regulated
household from Maine to California and In
Great Britain and Australia ure rapidly
pushing their wuy into popular favor.
All drucglate "0" Stuart's D) spepslu Tab
lets, full else packagea at O cents, urd for
a weak stomach a fifty cnt packst't will
often do fifty dollars' wortn ot good.

STRIKERS SEEK FORMER JOBS
Three Thousand Subway Men Seek Eein
statement, but Few Are Accepted.
OLD EMPLOYES MUST BEGIN ANEW
Leaders Give yp the Fight and Tell
Rank and File to Get Rack
Their Positions If
They Cnn.
NEW YORK, March 11. Realising that
their fight against the Interborough com
pany hod been lost, the old employes of
the subway and elevated railway today
crowded the offices of the company Beck
ing their former position. Some 3,000 men
applied for reinstatement, but not more
than BOO were accepted, the officials claim
ing to be snttsfled with the men who had
enabled them to break the si like and an
nouncing that in future tho rules as to
sobriety would be more strictly adhered
to. All applicants were notified that they
would have to pass the physical examina
tion and go to work as new men, whloli
means that those who went on strike
would lose their seniority and the Increased
pay that they had won for length of serv
ice. Lenders Give l'p Fight,
Messrs. Jencks and Pepper, the strike
leaders, admitted that the fight had been
lost and advised the men to get back;
their positions If they could. As for them
selves, the officers said they would not
again work for the company, Mr. Jencks
held the press responsible for the result,
contending that the papers hod aroused
a 'hostile sentiment. The strikers bitterly
denounced their leaders, saying the men
were deceived by them.
Service Is Improving;.
The service on the subway and elevated
systems haa not yet reached the efficiency
that prevailed before the strike, but with
the old men again at work and the Incom
petents among the new men weeded out,
the company promises that regularity and
frequency of trains by Monday morning.
The surface cars were still crowded to
day, the more timorous as yet being un
willing to truBt themselves In trains oper
ated by Inexperienced motormen and
guards, Fewer accidents, and they of a
trivial nature, occurred during the day.
