Retail merchants already have be gun to call for more boxes to hold the guess cards customers are tilling out. Even though the problems are as per plexing as the age of Ann, thousands of persons are trying to figure them out and many of them are "repeating." Some shoppers are coming down m parties and making stops at each place where there is something to worry about, to register guesses. The retail merchants, who have the windows light at night, say their guess boxes will be filled by Wednesday night and some have turned in orders for more. Armour's display in Browning, King & Co. '8 window Is attracting a great deal of attention. Shoppers seem not to be used to hams, bacons, lard and other products of the packing house In a fur nishing goods store window. The Omaha Hat factory has an odd display in the C. B. Brown Jewelry company window. Hats in course of manufacture and the finished product are there.

Among the largest exhibits made are the Iten Biscuit company, Omaha Furni ture Manufacturing company, L. G. Doup & Co, Loose-Wiles & Co. and the manual training department of the Omaha Higli school. Crowds are standing all day in front of Orchard & Wilhelm's win dows! where demonstrators are showing pullman davenports made by the L. G.

Ad Men Talk Over Eecent Texas Trip The spirit of the national convention of Ad clubs at Dallas was instilled into the members outside the delegation at the last weekly meeting of the Omaha Ad club yesterday at noon. ' Delegates to the convention reviewed some of the experiences of the trip and emphasized that they never had such times In their lives. Frank Bullta an nounced that he had saved newspaper clippings concerning the Omaha delega tion and souvenirs of the trip which he was going to put in a scrap book and turn over to the members for Inspection. The Ad Club Standard, the weekly paper published by the club, was passed around to the members. It contains a full account of the convention as far as the Omaha delegation was concerned and the parodies of popular songs which made such a hit for Omaha in Texas. Higgins Speaks of the Gentler Sex Inspired by the birth of a daughter and her admission Into the Ad club as an hon orary member, E. A. Higgins of the club's board of directors, made an im pressive talk before the weekly gathering yesterday, delivering a eulogy on woman that could not have been Improved upon as a eulogy. He was given his subject, "The In fluence of the Gentler Sex on Advertis ing," and by interpolating poems Into his own words of praise, made of the speech a touching tribute to motherhood and womankind. At the conclusion of his address the club unanimously resolved to draw a set of resolutions and present them to hira framed In appreciation of his talk and as a souvenir for his baby daughter, who has been taken Into the membership.

It was raining when the graduating class of 1912 of Browncll Hall hurried from the school across the street to St. Matthias Episcopal church to the com mencement exercises yesterday, but when the white-robed graduates trooped out at noon proudly carrying their sheepskins the sun was shining.

Neither of the fleeing men fired, al though both were armed. Patrolman Barta appeared In time to see the fast disappearang men and he too fired his weapon, but also without effect Murphy thinks the men were loitering in the alley awaiting a chance to hold-up some one.

A conference between Police Commis sioner Ryder and several city physicians will be held this week to discuss the ad visability of converting the Anna Wilson property, donated to the city, Into a hospital for contagious diseases. Health Commissioner R. W. Conneli has been advocating the desirability of making the Wilson property a hospital for contagious diseases, but there have been objections to this course and the general understanding has been that the property would be used for emergency cases only. Commissioner Ryder will take no step toward converting the property Into a contagious hospital until he has advised with physicians as to the danger of such a course.
