DEYELOPMEHT MDMBER A HIT term's Oet ftnnd Chanrfi aa 4b 4aar V asa "W M VAVfV on the Foot Ball Gridiron Business Men Pleased with Special Number of The Bee. THOUSANDS BEING MAILED OUT Prominent Mem Initiated In Tfcelr Praise and Tell of Value of Park a Publication to Omaha and Xebraska. The Nebraska development number of The Omaha Bee hu excited a great deal of favorable comment from the business inpii of Omaha and South Omaha. The Snrral sentiment expressed Is surprise that an edition of such magnitude and spmpleteness could be produced here, Kverywhere this section Is being read with the keenest interest from cover to covfr. It has proved educational, as It is full of concise Information concerning llie leading business, professional and public men of Omaha and South Omaha, t nd much of interest concerning the de velopment of Nebraska and Nebraska In lus'rirs. Some of the comments heard are as follows: A. i). Brandels: . "The Nebraska Devel opment number of The Omaha Bee is the very best thing that was ever gotten out by a western newspaper. Everybody I have talked with about It boosts the num ber very much and says it ts great." Gerrit Fort, passenger traffic manager (f the Union Pacific: "The Nebraska Dfvelopment number is a most highly creditable and valuable publication. I read it with the greatest Interest It is not only creditable to The Bee on account of what It shows of the artistic posslbllll tles of the plant, but Is highly valuable on account of the contents of the edi tion." Frank R. Manchester, secretary of '?raln exchange: "It was a surprise to most of us that such An edition could be gotten out In this western country. It was a very creditable publication." Evewtt Buckingham, general manager Union Stock Yards company: "The Ne . brafka Development number ot The Omaha Bee cannot help but do good. It Is a creditable production. Our people down here at the stock yards are Im mensely pleased wtih It and all have read It with a great deal of Interest." Police Commissioner Ryder: "This le velopment number appeals to my Judg ment as about the most complete thing in the line of extra newspaper publication that I have ever seen. It is full of live Information that must prove educational It the highest degree, even to Omaha and Nebraska people. I have purchased two dosen copies to send away, and feel sure they will be appreciated by the peopls In various cities and states who are to get them." Thomas J. Qulnlan, manager for Ilay ilen Bros.: "I have read the Development number of The Bee and consider it the mnat nrimtilpto publication of the kind I ever saw." Mayor Dahlman. who sent 100 copies of .the Development number of The Bee to friends In this and other states, said: "f have read the number clear through. It wax fine. There was some good stuff ill it." Rook Is Beaatlf nl. Home Miller: "The development num ber published by The Bee Sunday was one of the best advertising features ever gotten out by an Omaha . newspaper. When copies of that edition are cir culated over the county, as doubtless they will be, thousands of people will be converted to a belief in the greatness of this city and state which they did not realise before. - "It was a beautifully Illustrated .well written and artistically composed book." Thomas A. Fry: "The Bee made a mas ter stroKe wnen jt puousnea we usveiop ment number Sunday. It contained good literature and was gotten up In interest Infg style." . E. V. Fairish: "Such an edition as the development pumber of The Be Sunday In exactly along the line of the Commer cial club atfblldty bureau work, boosting Omaha and Nebraska. It is a beadtiful book and should b a souroa of pride to Omahana to such an extent that they mnd It to all friends outside the city." C. H. Pickens: "King Ak-Sax-Ben Is grateful to The Bee for advertising his rlm in such a handsome manner as it did In the development number. There were, things in that number which made him and Us subjects open their eye to the greatness of the things that are theirs.1' Just when school superintendents, prin cipals and teachers believed they had the disease germ by .the hind legs and were gathering strength to throw it overboard and part company with it forever and a day, ach! shiver me timbers! here Is a practice that shows up at once ' all the brutal Insincerities of science. School teachers first found It out this year at a foot ball game. To their horror a red-headed boy, with dirt on his face and grime on his hands, carried a bucket ful of water around and with a sponge sopped the players' dry palates. 'Heavens!" exclaimed one fair spec tator, "don't they knew that they'll all get full of germs?" Just then the red headed angel of the gridiron mopped a backflelder on the face with the sponge, calmly dipped It In the pall and com pelled another player to suck the sponge dry. "That don't hurt a foot ball player," a third grader explained. "You see he's such a husky guy and rolls around In the dirt so that a little mere dust ain't agon' to hurt him any." But the fair one will never regain her lost respect for the manly sport of foot ball She always associated "manly" sports with sporty spotlessly, clean and the horror of that sponge lingers with her. More Features Are Added to Teacliers' . Meeting Program More educational and entertainment features for the Nebraska Teachers' as sociation convention have been secured, Including a special course of lectures on health and medicine by prominent phy sicians. Dr. 3. P. Lord will deliver a lecture on "Growth and Deformity." Dr. . John B. Potts will discuss "Headache and Lassi tude Due to Nasal Obstruction" and Dr. E. H. Nauman of Columbus pro'jably will start a discussion with his lecture on the question "Should Boards of Edu cation Deduct from Teachers' Salaries When They are Absent Because of Sick ness 7" Dr. H. U Wells of West Point exponent of publicity for prevention of disease, also will be a speaker before the teachers. Announcements of coming delegations of school teachers continue to arrive in the malls at the publicity bureau. C. B. Moores, superintendent of the Osceola schools, wrote a complimentary letter concerning Omaha's hospitality when he announced that twenty teachers from his city would be here for the convention. The Board of Education at Osceola, he said, had allowed the teachers an extra day's pay for expenses at tne convention.

Hanna, Jr., of Bloomlngton, Ind. Hugh Hanna, an other son, was to have sung at both serv ices, but his voice was out ot condition, and this part of the "Hanna day" cele bration was abandoned.

Entrance Into Omaha Territory. BIO CEREAL FREIGHT CENTER Canadlaa Maes, by Gaiatna- Coatrol of Middle West Line, Would Compete for Canadian Pacific Bullae. If the plans of E. J. Cham'oeriain, head of the Grand Trunk railway lines, are carried out, the huge Canadian system will acquire an entrance to Omaha and further increase Omaha's reputation as a railway center. Mr. Chamberlain, who succeeded to the presidency of the Grand Trunk when Charles M. Haya went down with the Titanic, is making a brave at tempt to acquire the controlling interest of the Chicago Great Western Railway company. By gaining control of the Great West ern .the Grand Trunk will tap -a rich cereal freight territory, known as the "Corn Belt Route," lying between Chi cago, Kansas City, Omaha and St Paul and Minneapolis. It will also give the Grand Trunk a strategic position for com petition with the Canadian Pacific). The taking over of the Great Western was one of the chief plans of President Hays, but after his death the plans tem porarily were abandoned and continued so until a few weeks ago, when Mr. Chamberlain began negotiations for the American road. Part of the General Plan. This plan Is only a part of a general Canadian railway fight for connecting the great producing northwest with the con suming and exporting east. It was Presi dent Hays who startled the eastern rail road interests of this country by sud denly getting control of tbe old Central Vermont railway, itself worn out and unprofitable, and thus putting his road In direct competition with the American lines entering New England. Willingness of the controlling interests of the Great Western to consider the Grand Trunk offer Is found In the reports ot the company, which barely has met expenses. The preliminary statement for the year ending June 30 last shows a surplus of .44 of 1 per cent At the same time the management has done much to improve the property and it Is said to have put back about $16,000,000 in the last three or four years. The knowing ones decline to say how far negotiations have gone or whether the big Canadian company intends to absorb or gain control of the stock of the mid dle west system. Official anouncement Is expected from New York. ' List of G. 0. P.
