"Dave Mercer has accompliohed work dur-
hog the presCllt session cf congress that I
thought was Impossible , " said It. S. Berlin
of the Miseaurl River eOlnmie3lon yesterday -
day wion : asked lila opinion of th additional
$30,000 that was tacked on the river and
ilarbor bill lassed Monday by the houee of
I epresentatives.
'Of course , we silould like more money ,
but when the general appropriation was cut
down from $750,000 to $250,000 , I did not
think we should secure so large a share as
we hare , Congressman Mercer has secured
for Omaha and Council Bluffs the expedl-
tOre of $80,000 , ro this community's share
of the approprIation has not suffered a proportional -
portional reduction.
"The plan of the commission has always
bpen to Improve the river so as to make It
navigable. beginning the improvements at
the mouth and continuing thorn up-stream.
dora adherence to this syeitematic and continuous -
tinuous improvement of the river from the
mouth up would force Omaha and CouncIl
Bluffs to wait a long time before any part
of tile appropriation should be expended in
tills immediate vicinity. I have urged
rovctrneots at Olnahla and Council Bluffs for
theproteetlon of the channel and the banks ,
asserting that at no other point along tile
entire river wore there two such large and
Important citiec situated opposite each
other. Our plan contemplates , cxtensive tin-
provements aiqng the river bank from the
Unithi Pacific bridge on the south , up to and
including the water works station on the
north. "

day afternoon as they received their
( liplOilla ! bearing witness to their tilreo
years of faithful study and conferring upon
( item tuG degree of doctors of medicine. It
was tile fifteenth annual commencement of
the college. The exercises were held in
Iloyd'sp theater. The house was well fihiil
With the friends of tile alumni , graduates and
undergraduates. On the stage were seated a
number of local physicians and the trustees
of tue college. The program was opened with
an overture by tIle orchestra , after which
Rev , W. V. hiarsha , D. D. , offered a fervent
prayer for tile spiritual as well as for the
worldly success of the young Illell and women
who were about to be ilonored.
\Villianl F , Milroy , M. D. , presIdent -
Ident of tile board of , trustEes -
tEes of tile college , delivered a short
address to the graduates before..conferring
tile degrees upozi thom. lie spoke of the
vows taken by the father of medicine , who is
supposed to have dwelt on an island In thb
Aegean sea 500 years before tile dawn of tile
Christian era. "With holiness anti purity
viil I practice my art. " was his eaioinn vow
and from all those vi1o etudied of him did he
( lemand this vow. Ills original Investigations
help to lay a successful foundation for a
rational study of inetilcine , but. as important
as was his wonderful progress , it Old not
compare 'Will ) . tite value of the vows of Itoh-
ness 1111(1 purity. Dr. Mllroy strongly urged
upon the graduates a close qbuarvaneo ol
this principles. lie said it was true that
there was no flunishlnent for tranagressing
the principles mentioned , save dIsgrace , bat
there should be a higher motive than fear
which would compel adherence to them , Ho
declared that physicIans Ia the garb were
many , but those in reality were too few.
"I anprehend that thee who practice the
art of medicine simply lot the dollars that
may bo In it , " caid lie , "shoot very far wide
of the mak. " I'm aware that physicians are
the laughing stock of the commercial world
which worships only the ahidIgiity dollar.
Every well equipped physician may feel as-
cured of a good livelihood , but should , ho
roach only after the dollar mark he will fall
to attaIn the best results.
"Tue profession Is often spoken of as one
of the liberal professions. So it Is. Occa-
elonally you meet a narrow-minded phys-
iclan , Wile stumbles through a career of some
kind. His sln are rather of omission than
of commission. The practice of medicine
demands the highest faculties to be employed
by tue mind , keen and aCcurate observation ,
the most cultured tastes and the best judg-
iiient. Tiilnk for yourself , ' is a motto I
was once given , and I can think of none
that will better earvo yea Ia the careo that
you have before you. historical facts are
of mere passIng interest.
hANDED THEIR SHEEPSKINS. .
"It is now my pleasure to hand to you the
( uiplornas awarded to you by the Omaha Mcd-
icai college for your completion of a required -
quired course of study and to confer upon
you the degrees of doctors of medicine. I
heartily congratulate every one of you , and
wish you every success thoughoit your
career. It. is my warmest wish that when
you have completed your work on this earh
that you may find the silent boatman of
the golden stream waiting to coavey you
through open gates to the honor and tue
glory that await them Who .have nobly filled
their mission here , "
President Mllroy called the graduates to
the front of the stage , and as each one cc-
sponded to lila name , he was presented with
a diploma by the presIdent , and a round of
applause by tue audience. . The names of tile
graduates , together with the names of the
towns In which they wIll settle and commence -
menco tue practice of medicine , are as fol-

After the degrees had been conferred. the
ushers began to distrIbute ti'e ' various prea-
eats sent to the newly-made doctors by
their admiring frIends , .It..vas a task of
no mean dimensions. There were enough
floral designs brought up lp the stage to
establish a fine conservatory in tile home
of each graduate. Almost every member of
the graduating class received one or more
handsome bouquets ; others received books.
ADDRESS DY TIFl CHANCELLOR.
After another selection by tile orchestra.
Chancellor George Edwin MacLoan of the
University of Nebraska was introduced and
received wIth hearty applause. He said that
with considerable Illeasure he had accepted
the invitation to speak again in Omaha. The
flrut time lie addressed an audience In this
city Itwas in the act of performing a marriage -
riage ceremany between Lincoln and Omaha.

count of a lovers' quarrel. lie believed that

on tue tiation'v foreign relations. But he
conaldered this occasion tue crowning event
of all ills appearances in Omaha. and op tilat
account ho was glad to be present.
lie spoke brieiiy on "Tile Modern. Ainer-
ican PhyLician , " saying : 'In tile first place
tile modern American physician is a gentle-
man. lIe is a gentleman , historically con-
sidered. Back In tile times of Good Quehn
Bose the physician ranked as one of the
nobility , and of tue royalty , " lie was glad
that there were no classes In America tilat
tile gentleman was not a title to lie bestowed
because of noble blood , but was an honor that
could be earned by oven the iiumb'est IeEant.
"You have before you a noble profession ,
a great vocation. We , WllO are members
of any profession , profess belief in certain
principles , A profersion nmy Include an
art or a craft , but no lrotession is designed
as a money-making enterpriSe.t. In these
days whlen the science of medicine is so rapidly -
idly rising It. may be your good fortune to
be discoverers of some important medical
fact , That would indeed be a greet honor.
But It you arc looking for wealth , and that
only , you llad best leave the professions
alone.

Greater Suits ( Mcii's )
c _ That's just what they arc-gi'cater suits , Coni-
niencing at $4.25 and 4'cnding up" at $2i.OO , we are
L showing I i 6 distinct patterns of Men's Suits that arc
2t. greater for the money than any you ever saw in your
life0 For. fear you may think this is simply an adver-
want to it more-they
&i & ( tising expression we repeat once
arc greater suits for the money than any you ever saw
in your life. When "The Nebraska" makes that asser-
a , ( tion it comes pretty near being the absolute truth. The
t _ $425 suits are pretty , and honest , and well made , and ' -
all wool. The S.OO and $5.75 suits arc still better and f
1 , ( handsomer and there arc more of them to pick from , and
the $6.00 and $6.50 suits arc as good looking , as well -
made , as well finished and will wear as well as any ten
I ( dollar suit ever sold. For $7.50 we arc showing suits
t. ' _ that are astonishing people who think they know all - -
about clothing , and our Ten , ELeven and Twelve dollar M
L ( suits arc made-to-order suits in every respect except
i. price. We want people who complain of the hard times -
c _ to look at these greater suits. Perhaps it won't hurt to
remind you that '
