The talk of a passenger rate war , credited
to the transiiilssouri territory by the Chicago
cage papers , "which promises to bo the live
liest In the history of western railroads , "
seems to ho imperfectly understood , in view
of the fact that the Onion i'aeille is credited
with inaugurating the cut in rates.
It is true that a cut on second class business
I/iko to the Missouri
ness , from Ogden and Salt /
souri river is beliii ? made and has been made
for a fortnight past , but the Inauguration of
the reduction In rates is directly traceable to
the Kto Grande Western's connections , the
scalping being done In Denver , where largo
blocks' of Mo Oraudo Western tickets have
l > eeii put in the hands of scalpers.
The regular rate from Ogdcn and Salt
I > ake to the Missouri river on second class
business Is J'- . " ) , which has been cut to $17 by
the boycott lines antagonistic to the conservative
vative policy of the Union Pacific. Kather
than see all the business diverted to the
lines Inaugurating the boycott the Union
Pacillc , whllo not meeting the full extent of
the cut , reduced the rate enough to protect
themselves.
Chicago papers , however , make a great
mistake when they assert that the cut was
made on llrst class business , as only second
oluss business Is affected by the new rate
offered by western roads.
Hut the Hio ClranUo Western is getting
very tlrrd of making a haul of 700 or SOO
miles for $ . " > . the r.mouut which it gets after
the exorbitant commissions are pa'la. and
already shows signs of crying "enough. "
U is a fact that larger commissions are be
ing paid coupon agents for rastbuund busi
ness than ever before in th history of railroading
reading in the west and should the present
condition continue indefinitely the coupon
agents and scalpers would own the rail
roads.
In order that the situation may bo more
effectually met Mr K. U Ixtimix has gone to
meet Colonel Dodge at Salt I ake.and within
u very short time a new and more pro
nounced policy may ho expected on the part
of the Union I'aeille people.

The recent action of the Union Pacific in
closing the trausmlssouri gateways , except
at Omaha , and the southern gateways at
Kort Worth Is to the mind of experienced
railroad manipulators a straw showing in
what direction the wind is blowing in Union
Pacific affairs. And the concensus of belief
is that the Vanderbllts have secured pos
session of enough of the stock to give them a
majority when the annual meeting occurs on
the last Wednesday in April.
The policy with reference to the long haul
has been a decided feature If no4. the one
characteristic of the Vamlerliilt Hues every
where in the country. They demano the
long haul , and it looks to tlie man familiar
with the situation that Mr. Clark is simply
making It easy for his friends to keep at the
helm when the Vanderhllts show their
hands , which it Is claimed they will do be
fore a great whllo. Tlio contradistinction ot
the new order of things shows .a power be
hind the throne in Union PaclfUratTalrs.
( There is a growing feeling of uneasiness
about Union Pacillc headquarters that Mr.
Clark has decided to leave the presidency ol
the road for a like position on the Missouri
Pacillc. And not without reason' , the indi
cations at least pointing In that direction.
It Is well known that the Vandorbllts de
sired control of the Union Pacific a year ago
when the Gould interests executed their
celebrated , coup and captured the manage
ment of the road and secured the election ol
Mr. Clark. Hut Mr. Gould's death has
materially changed the situation and thu
very interests that were defeated a year agn
may bo now in a position to dictate terms.
It is well known that notwithstanding the
defeat of the Vandcrbilt interests a year ape
In the annual election they have never aban
doned the hope that some day tTioy would
have a line reaching from Now York to San
Francisco , and present movements on thu
railroad chess board would seem to indicate
that they are likely to realize their desires ,
There are many speculations heard as to
what the future may have in store for tin
Union Pacillc , but none seem more plausible
than that Mr. Dickinson will bo general
manager under the now regime with a presi
dent either In Boston or Now York. Ilul
should the Vanderbllts succeed to the con
trol , then an active man will bo made prcsl
dent with headquarters in Omaha , Mr
Dickinson remaining as general manager.

There Is no denying the fact that Jim I 111
of the Great Northern is making n monkoj

in Denver recently between Mr. Clarlr. Mr
Manvcl of the Santa Fc , Mr. Jeffrey of tin

Mr. Jeffrey , occupying its time dlscnsslni

A Union Pacific member of the confercnc >
openly asserted a day or so ago , on the eve o
the adjournment of the controversy , that 1
Jim Hill adheres ( o his policy as outlined ii
his circular , making a rate of 2.75 per him
dred on all classes of rates nnd refusing ti
rocosrnizo commodity rates , it would roduci
the Union 1'acilie's annual earnings at leas

making power of a railway company is the
highest of Its corporate functions. This
power is universally conferred upon the
boards of directors. U should have been
treated with seriousness , as representing
the most Important duty of the several
boards. But instead of this , the directors
of every corporation have practically abdi

There pervaded the annual commctvc-
mcnt exercises of the Omntm Normal Train
ing school , liulil at Hoyd's Opera house last
evening , that spirit of devotion to country ,
an 1 Has that caused a liberty-loving public to
llrst inaugurate that grandest of American In
stitutions the public nclmol. 1'atrlotlsni was
everywhere prevalent. A big banner of tlio
roil , \vlilto and blue was gracefully sus
pended from the side wings on the stage and
there was breathed in the utterances of all ,
loyalty to the great bulwark of America's
independence the schools which more
llrmly rooted in the hearts and minds of all
present the veneration for the land giving to
rich and poor alike the opportunities to
develop the faculties of the mind and the
good impulses of the heart.
The auditorium of the theater was well
niled , while the balcony held a fair number.
The second annual commencement will bo an
event long to bo remembered In the after
life of the seventeen young ladies and
the one young man who were
given diplomas last evening. The
affair was a success in every particular ,
the exercises of a character both pleasing
and instructive. The stage was occupied by
the graduates , Mrs. T. K. Sudborough , Dr.
Duryea , and Vice President Alken of the
Hoard of Education , who presided. The
floral tributes wcro many , and beau
tiful , the ono presented Mrs. Sud
borough , principal of the school , being
a particularly exquisite design of the
florist's art and the gift of the graduates.
The seventeen young ladles wcro attract
ively attired in white and cream tinted
gowns , several dccollctte. Dr. Duryoa of
fered prayer , Invoicing the divine blessing on
all present and on the pathway of those in
whoso honor the exercises were being hold.
Miss Hose J. O'Connor's recitation , ' 'The
American Flag , " was the opening number ot
the program , in which the young lady had
ample scope for the display of the excellent
powers of elocution she possesses : "Lc
Dcsir , " by Cramer , a piano solo , by Miss
Minnie M. Oliver , followed.
Talked Aliollt Trulnlnp.
"Training of Teachers in the United
States , " Miss Jessie Byrne's essay , follow
ing the piano solo , was an interesting re
capitulation of the work of training
teachers since the Inception of the first
normal school. Beginning at a period when
the United States was recovering from the
efl'ccts of the struggle with the mother coun
try. the essayist carried down to its present
state of perfection the difllcultles attendant
upon the permanent establishment of the
normal schools.
After the shock had passed the question
arose as to how to educate the masses to fit
thorn for the new order of things and thcii
new duties. Primary schools wcro first es-
tabllshed. In 1823 Sam Hall opened the first
training school for teachers , and almost
without interruption th' training of teacher.
has been ono to which much attention has
been given. Miss Byrne spoke of the great
good resulting from the work of fitting the
minds of the instructors to study the minds
of the children.
The essay was clear and logical and its delivery
livery good.
The graduating class in a part song , " ! M
the Morn is Breaking- Cherubine , ami
an exhibition of.ealcsthenies by the class
wercUhe succeeding numbers. In the lattei
exercise the class was led by Miss Bradley
instructor of the institute , , and the gracofif
'movements of the class allowed an earncsi
application to the study in this department
Ono of the most pleasing features of the
program was the rendition by Miss .Margaret
Lchmer of Jean Ingelow's bedutiful | > ocm
"Echo and1 the Ferry. " The well modulated
tones of the young lady , together with the
expression in its delivery , gave evidence o !
her ability as an elocutionist of no meat
merit. She was warmly applauded. A so
prano solo , Bluinenthal's "Venetian Bo : !
Song , " by Miss Blanche Doherty , closed th <
first half of the program.
On "Tho New duration. "
The last half was opened by an essay b.i
Miss Stella V. Hlco , unquestionably tin
feature of the evening. In "Tlio New Edu
cation" she gave expression to many wel
chosen truisms viid read a delightfully re
freshing paper on Vtople at once interesting
and well worthy o : the hearty applausi
with which it was greeted at the finish
Miss Rico's reading in itself wai
not the least pleasing feature of the essay
as her deliver ' was almost faultless. Slu
spoke in a clear forcible manner , and in hei
essay said :
"Tho new education , so vigorously and si
eloquently preached by Uousscau , take :
cognizance of the great part childrci
play iti the world's activity. Physi
cal training , which , for so low
a time , "had been entirely neglected
is again found worthy of attention , for it ii
at once seen that a sound iuind finds its bes
expression in a sound body : The now. theory
of education begins' ' with a young'chlld uuc
takes account of that spontaneous activity
or in other words , rent lessncss , which is char
acteristie of childhood. Activity and knowl
edge are closely related. At this ago tin
child's observing faculties- arc constant ! ;
busy , its mind is being stored , with valuabli
knowledge. Allithat is'iieedcdis ' the dlreetioi
of Its activity into the right channels , and ti
aid this purpose attraction is the thini
sought for. M'ho attention given by tin
child is wholly spontaneous. It gives it t <
whatever has the greatest degree of at
traction.
"By constant repetition of language fron
object lessons it is unconsciously formulatini
the rules of grammar and acquires a com
inand over the language which can bo ac
quired in no other way. Children have i
natural bent or inclination of mind , whicl
should bo followed as far as possible In the !
education. "
Uses or Kln
Miss Hlco then referred to the kindergai
ten methods as well calculated to train th
senses. She spoke of the great usefulness o
illustrating by objects the indeas desired ti
bo conveyed to the pupils' minds In fractions
geography and other studies. Speaking o
the latter , which she said once conveyed bu
two ideas to children that the earth was i
round thing made of plaster and that Par !
was a dot in the small space allotted ti
Franco it is now recognised as a study mos
productive of interest.
A fundamental principle of natural educa
tion is that there is a certain sequence ii
which the faculties spontaneously develop
that a new perception must enter into eertaii
relations with the knowledge already in th
mind and bo assimilated before it is undei
stood. It must become part of the mini
itself. Let the children have a bright
cheery room anil appliances for dlrectini
their self-activity aright. It helps do\elo
nil the powers of the mind , csjiceulaU ;
the reason , fur that Is the one factor tlia
will enable them to learn long after th
school books arc laid aside.
The essay was followed by another cxhl
bltlon of calisthenics in which the graccin
posturiugs of Delsark were shown. An Ii :

MAYOR CQSHING'S HOME.
I'lro Piij-in I ) < ttructlvo Visit to mi
The elegant residence of ex-Mayor H. C.
Gushing , 123 South Twenty-fifth avenue ,
was almost totally ruined by llro and water
last evening.
About a half hour before the flro was dis
covered Mrs. Cushing had been up in the
attic dry room , and it is supiwscd that the
bla/o started from a lighted match which
she might have dropped. The flames wcro
confined to the attic story , and the roof and
this floor will bo a total loss and
will have to bo rebuilt. On the
first and second floors the loss by water will
bo heavy , and $0,000 will hardly repair the
damage. Water in great sheets poured
down through the floors , ruining carpets ,
furniture , books , pictures and brie-a-brae.
It was a hard llro to fight , as the hose and
chemical lines had to be carried through the
house and up two flights of stairs , the upper
stairway being winding and quite steep.
The dense smoke in the top story made It all
the harder for thcT firemen , but after the
lines were up and the water turned on the
effect was soon felt and it wasn't long until
the roof had been reduced to a smoldering
mass of charred timbers.
The residence cosl&M.OOO and the furnish
ings were worth fully $10,000 , all fully cov

Is also In Jail , will bo held as a witness ,
there heiuc no cliarpo ng.ilnst him.
At 10 o'clock yesterday iimrniup Haley
accompanied by Deputy Sheriff Druell of
Crete walked into the police station and vol
untarily cave himself up. lie said that as
snon as he heard of his belnu wanted by the
officers hero , ho started for Omaha , even
( 'oiiiR so far as to pay the expenses of the
deputy who accompanied him.
Haley was arrested at Crete Wednesday
Jildht about 10 o'clock on u dispatch scut
from this city. That the vomit ; man was
surprised only faintly expresses the aston
ishment shown by him on being taken into
custody. Chief Detective Haze , who left on
THE Uin : special at " o'clock yesterday morn-
IiifT , returned during the day to find his man
safely behind the bars at the central sta
tion.
tion.Haley entered a plea of not puilty in court ,
and in talking with a Hii : : reporter after
being arraigned , denied the charges made by
the negroes in toto. When asked concerning
the letters shown by Heady ho admitted
writing the ono in which reference is made
to keeping the lloor clean. The second let
ter Haley declared was a forgery from begin
ning to end. The druggist claimed to have
had trouble with Heady when the latter was
porter at the Farnam street store and dis
charged him. The negro , so italoy states.
to " . "
swore get "even.
Deputy Druell , who came in with the
prisoner , siid : that he had known him for
years and believed him to bo an honest
young man. Haley had been anxious to come
to Oimilm and see what the authorities had
against him ami , had paid Dnieft's expenses
to bring him on the llrst train this morning
rather than to wait for Sergeant H.ue , who
consequently has his trip for nothing.
The stock hi the place burned was owned
by Haley's father , K. V. Haley , a
prominent ami respected citi/en of Crete
who. with a man named llulllugcr , purchased -
chased it of the Kiusler Drug company
some time last summer. The store was then
located at 1807 Faruam street , ami after a
time llulllugcr withdrew from the llrm and
young Haley conducted the business for his
father.
Notwithstanding Haley's denial the two
negroes stick to their original story mid Cal-
loway said he was hired to do the work as
bo claims Haley said ho was short of money
and needed about . * 500. The druggist is a
youmr man about 21 years of age and rather
good looking and is said to bo a "halo fellow'
well met"aniQng the young bloods of the city. .

iouvenir Coins
The Official Souvenir
of the Great Exposition
5,000,000 of which were donated to the World's Columbian Exposition by the
Government , are being rapidly taken by an enthusiastically patriotic people.
As there early promised to be a demand for these Souvenirs that
would render them very valuable in the hands of speculators , the Exposition
Authorities decided to place the price at
and sell them direct to the people , thus realizing 5,000,000 , and using lh
additional money for the further development of the Fair.
Considering the fact that there were butjr , < w , < w of these coins to ba
distributed amomg 65,000,000 people , in this country alone ( to say nothing
of the foreign demand , ) and that many have already been taken , those wish
ing to purchase these mementoes of our Country's Discovery and of the
grandest Exposition ever held , should secure as many as they desire at once.
Realizing that every patriotic American
will want one or more of these coins ,
and in order to make it convenient for
him to get them , we have made arrange
ments to have them sold throughout
the country by all the leading Merchants
and Banks. If not for sale in your town , send $1.00 each for not less than
five coins , by Post-oflice or Express Money-order , Registered Letter or Bank
Draft , with instructions how to send them to you , all charges prepaid , to
