city, and on account of 1 1t clear
lay and sunshine the persons in

was n current put on until the
repular hours. While perhaps
there was no jrreat demand for
the use of the elect rieity during
the day, when the matter had
leen hroiipht the attention of
the public through the paper, it
was only natural for the public
to expect, thai they would be al
lowed lo use the current, and
such actions do not tend to make
anyone have more confidence in
the intentions of the company,
and ir they expect to have the
support of the general public
they will have to produce the
ponds as promised.

TASTILY ARRANGED SHOW
WINDOW AT THE JOE
FETZER SHOE STORE
A very neat and tastily ar
ranged show window is that of
the JVIzer shoe store, where
both windows hae been tilled up
with the latest things in the shoe
line, including a display of slip
pers for Christmas, and these
articles have been placed most
attractively in the windows,
which have been trimmed with
the decorations of the Christmas
season in profusion, and it
makes a sight very . pleasing to
the eye and one that makes a
person leel like entering the
store and investing iu the at
tractive footwear. This store
makes a policy of carrying tin
best and latest styles in shoes,
and they always strive to give
their patrons the best that can
possibly be procured in their
line from the markets of the
country, and the display in the
window is only a hint of the
possibilities that lie within the
store.

M. S0ENN1CHSEN
H
The toaslmaster made a very
clever inl roducl ion of Hew V. M.
Iruliner, who, for I he first time,
was heard by the -public, of Iho
city outside of his pulpit, and his
eloquent address, while, brief, was
tilled with deep thought and
showed a wonderfully clear mind
that saw the best things lhal life
could possibly hold. Jlev. Iru
liner hail as his subject, "Tin;
Strength of Yielding." He re
marked he was more than pleased
to be present at Hie banquet,
where so many of the young men
of the city had assembled, and
he was thrilled with the pos
sibilities that lay in such
gathering, lie said he had work
ed in small towns and had studied
the question of the man closely
and was uf the opinion that when
this question was solved, that of
the boy and girl question would
soon be settled, lie in following
out his subject told of several
cases where the persons yielding
in the conlest had shown great
er strength and courage than
those who had won. and by Iheir
courageous actions, had become
stronger in defeat than the vic
tors. He asked for more earnest
work for Ihe men in the churches
and was glad that the trend of the
times was toward Ibis way, as
for too long the women had been
compelled to carry the burden of
npporling the churches, but the
awakening spirit of the twentieth
century was for a man's church.
He pleaded with the young men
preset n to lay their life work
ilong the big things of life and
not be content with Ihe little
mailers and petty things that
make up existence. He said each
day the demand for clean-cul
Christian young men was becom
ing more pronounced, and
everywhere there was a call for
men of this kind lo take up posi
tions of responsibilities. lie
closed with a most, eloquent plea
for belter living and purer Jives
of the people, and his address was
one that deeply impressed every
one with its force and feeling-.
The Young Men's 5lee club
was next on the program and
gave two very pleasing numbers,
the first being "The Sailor's
Iream." and in response, they
favored Ihe gathering with a
comic selection, "The flood
Looking .Maid," which simply
brought down the house, and the
young men belonging lo Ihe club
can well feel proud of the show
ing I hat they have made since
their organization, and they now
possess a very able organization
of young vocalists.
The speaker of I he evening, J.
Iean Ringer, of South Omaha,
who is himself a '-omparal ively
young man. was introduced in a
very pleasing manner by the
loastniasler, and afler coin,
plimenling the ladies, for Ihe
splendid treat afforded, launched
forth into his subject, that of
"The Triangle." and he slated
lhal. the triangle could be perfect
or imperfect with one part longer
than another, marring the per
fection of the whole, and he took
up Ihe triangle, comparing it to
the three things entering .into
Ihe human body, that of body,
mind and soul. He called the at
tenlion of Ihe banqueters to the
fact that it was necessary for a
good strong body to make a good
strong character, to sustain the
other functions of the human
system, and he urged the young
men to care for their physical
health. and not to allow I his
wonderful piece of machinery lo
be run down. He then took up
Ihe subject of the mind ami
pointed out that in this organ of
the system was the battleground
between right and wrong, and
lhal. by the cultivation of lofty
and pure thinking the mind could
cast, out all evil and degrading
thoughts. He also pointed out
the need for direct and positive
thought that would enable a per
son lo grasp the problems pre
sented to them and deal with
them. It is this that gives Ihe
college man an advantage over
his fellows, that he has been
trained to this direct thought
and is enabled lo deal with quos
lions as they -are presented to
him. -The speaker also pointed
out Ihe needs of the spiritual
side of Ihe human being, without
which all else is of little avail,
and his preceding remarks led up
to this,' that of the better living
and better citizenship of the
country, which was of suctrTve
eessily to. make the communities
better, and he urged Ihe young
men lo take hold of Ihe problems
and make the community in
which they lived better by taking
part in public affairs. and exer
cising Iheir best and purest judg
ment, not, for the dollar, bul for
principal. To illustrate his plan
for action on the part, of the
young man, he told several
stories of the warfare that has
been waged in South Omaha lo
free that, cily-froni the conditions
that exist there now and have ex
isted there , for years, and he
slated as long as Hij men of Ihe
community allowed themselves to
be corrupted and placed Ihe value
of money greater than Ihe needs
of their fellow-men, these condi
tions would continue. The ad
dress was delivered in a straight
forward way lhal lefl no doubt as
to where Ihe speaker slood on Ihe
questions he discussed, and it is
lo be regretted that, everyone in
Hie cily was nol given an oppor
tunity to hear this excellent plea
for the heller things of life.
Following Mr. Hinger, Ihe
toaslmasler called upon E. II.
Wescott. for a few remarks, and
this gentleman thanked Ihe gathering-
for having" been present as
guests of the class on Ibis oc
casion, and his own appreciation
of the kind words Ihe different
speakers had given the class.
Hey. I). L. . Dunkleberger and
Rev. J. H. Sieger were called upon
for a few remarks, and while they
were nol on (he toast list, Ihey
very kindly gave a few minutes
to expressing their pleasure at
being present and for Ihe spirit
shown by all Ihe gathering for
the uplifling of themselves and
Ihe community.
The very enjoyable gathering
was closed by a splendid solo by
pull C. York, and be responded
gracefully to the. encore by sing
ing that always beautiful song,
"Annie Laurie." being accom
panied by E. H. "Wescott on Ihe
piano. This hvought the close lo
a most inspiring meeting.
THE SUFFRAGESTS OF
LIBERTY ORGANIZE AND
ELECT THEIR OFFICERS
, (Union1 Ledger.)
A meeting wiis held in Wood
man hall last Saturday afternoon,
having' for its object Ihe promo
tion of the cause of "the ballot
for women," and the meeting was
attended by quite a number who
desired to hear (he matter discus
sed by Mrs. . M. Hall of Lincoln.
Miss Jessie Todd of this village
presided, and I. W. Foster made
a few remarks upon the subject,
after which The Ledger editor
was railed upon lo explain the
nature of the .little election that
is hemg conuucieq at ni.s omce.
Mrs. Hall was then introduced,
ami for about forty minutes she
spoke of Ihe conditions that will
be changed and improved when
women vote, laying some stress
upon the fact lhat giving Ihe bal
lot to women is only doing them
Ihe justice lhat rightfully belongs
to Ihem. Mrs. Hall is a very
pleasant speaker, and her argu
ments were presented in a very
fair and courteous manner and
presented sound logic from her
point of view.
After the speaking those pres
ent, proceeded to organize a
league, the name adopted being,
"Union Equal "Franchise. League,"
membership cards having been
passed around and many signed
and placed on file. A constitu
tion was adopted, after which
