In the enterprise have been centered not
only patriotism and state pride , but indi-
\idual public eplrit and tbe private deter
mination of the managers not to be behind In

of like scone and purpose The project Is
notable for the harmonious co-operation of

of the site was there any acrlmlnloui coi-

The managers of the Tennessee Centen
nial exposition call attention with prcat
satisfaction to the fact that they have un
dertaken no part of the work without first

Its share of attractions for the visitor.
Most interesting it the state house , whose
construction dates from back in 1B4R , and
coat 11,500,000. It Is of severe classical
design perched high upon the most promi
nent hill in the city , and visible for miles
around. It i * handsomely finished in the
interior and filled with \be usual relics
bearing upon the history of the state. There
are pictures of Jackson and Polk and other
prominent Tcnneaseeans and a queer portrait
trait of a fat. chubby old woman labeled
"Mrs Andrew JacUoon " Out on the cam
pus it the famous bronze equestrian statue
of Old Hickory , the huge piece of metal
balanced to a nicety on the hind legs of the
rearing animal. A little further on is the
marble canopy monument ever the remains
nf President James K Poll , and his wife.
The inscriptions recite how Polk had been
honored with almost every public position
within the gift of the people , and had died
ID 1S4 beloved and mourned by alt He
was burled by special permit of the Nash
ville city council in the front yard of his
own residence , and the monument wns first
erected there The story of its removal Il
lustrates how some great men mius great
opportunities and precipitate great quar
rels among their sun-Ivors.
Tennessee it scorns , provides no official
residence for its governor , and does not
evct. make an appropriation to reimburse
him for lite house rent. Polk was child
less. and had no relatives except his wife
dependent on him. He had been governor
of Tennessee Hen- was his opportunity to
leave his hoinr to the Hate for use as an
executive mansion , and then if he waited
to IIH burlfd in his front yard ho would
bo sure of having a resting place on pub
lic ground cared for by the state. But ho
did nothing of thr kind. He made a will. OT
rather tried to make a will. He left the
property to his wife during her lifetime , and
then for occupancy ( luring their Ihes by
the most meritorious person in the Pollt
family bearing the name of Polk , the ques
tion of murit to be decided by the legisla
ture. Mrs. Poll ; did not die until 1BI > 1 The
holrs Immediately objected to the will , and
took It Into court with the result that It
was suiashod to smithereens. The property
will soon have to be hold for the benefit
of the estate , and the proceeds divided
among some fifty of the Polk kith and kin
The remains of the ex-president and bin
wife had to be removed to the capital
grounds and the beautiful monument torn
down and rebuilt No one knows into
whoso hands the Poll : house may fall , or
for what purpose It may be used , and the
state of Tennessee Is still without an execu
tive mansion , and Its governor , on that ac
count , usually absent from the capital

an exhaustive document , in which tht

recommended a further reduction of ex

and declared against any reduction in the
salaries of the teachers.
Superintendent J'earbe reported that a

warrants amounting to $ VU,4U.7ii wwo out-

This opened the barb , and was followed up
by R report from the committee on salaries
by which the Jat.ttor at the Par ) : school
was allowed an equal amount pur month for
attending to the ventilating fan. Tht mi

how much extra work this fan produced.
It developed that this enl ) amounted to
starting and stopping the motor tvvico a
day and oiling Uu * fan once a week. The
report was llnally referred to the iteming

On the convening of coun in the after

B. S. Dundy. At that time there wee
gathered within the bar of the court & large
number of the leading lawyers , both from
Omaha and throughout tbe state , who bad
practiced before tbe court.
In opening. Mr. Webster called attention
to the fact that the deceased had presided
over this court for tbe district of Nebraska

three years of service being among the
longest terms In the history of the govern
ment In touching upon the Judicial char

n. F. Hall of tute city paid a brief and

prefacing IIP rottdtn * with the statement
ihat ho felt that on thin creation his tongue

C. E. Macoon of Lincoln spoke of tbe in
timate relations which the deceased had
maintained to the formation period of the
young atatp and of tbe impress he had left
upon it. Of his private character he aaiu
h WCK e man in whom tbe beat element *
of civilization and barbarism met in tbe
formation of an Admirable character.

In conclusion Judge Bhiras stated that It
was hardly necessary for him to state that
he heartily concurred in the tribute * of the
numbers of tbe bar. It was a tribute from
men whcae Ircuwlectge of tbe subject enti
tled them to know of v hat- they spoil e. The
long service of tbe judge , lasting from tbe
formation of tbe t'.itt to tbe time of hit
death , entitled him to Uie amplest recogni

The Woman's club tn at the rooms on
rourtefnth and r > otiRl * yesterday afternoon.
Nine m * * name * were propoevd to swell the
membership towarfi the rapidly approachlne
600 mark.
Tbe principal dlBCUMlon of the eB lon
was tbe change of the mttrtlus hour. Tbe
BchnrJ beard this year extended the school
hour to 4 o'clock As a goodly per cent of
tbe public school teacher * are members at
the club tlt old hour of 8 was changed
to 8.80 This hour Allows thp teacher * to
gci in in time for thr program , which twually
begin * at 4 15. Tht business and literary
features of the club's program occupy two
hours , hence the plain little housmuotber ,
who Is her own domestic help , cannot get
home qultr early enough to have dinner on
the table at the utroke of C So tbe dis
cussion was animated and pointed. Mrs
Tcwue proposed tbe compromise of 8.1ft. but
thin amendment was lost and the original
motion carried A motion WHS at once
madt and found a icady Bpcrnid that U
club mrmbers. by * hl * action deprived of the
general meeting , be allowed to withdraw and
have the fee * of this year refunded. The
chair held the motion out nf tir < 1ar.
Mrs. tielden then rose and gave notice that
four weeks from today ebe would offer an
i i ' amendment to the constitution , providing
, for the change of the club's day of meeting
i from Monday to Saturday. So tbe real quo * .
' tlon will br nettled .n tbe fate of thlt amend
ment.
' The literary program of the day was pre-
i sided over b. lrs Crelgh. lender of the cur
rent topic departmrnl Mis * Hoagland
' charmed tbe club with her sojo. "For all
Eternity : " Miss Mllard ! rrndered a violin
obligate accompaniment. Miss Conn read an
earnest paper upon "The Bible in tbe Public
, School " Her presentation wet a reasonable
and fair-minded argument en the neca.lvp
'
side of the question. Mrs. C S. Jnynes
j i gave a bright little paper upon "Our bebt
I
I I to tbe French. " She handled tbe subject
I lightly , considering our debt mainly from
the commercial , fashionable and social
I standpoint
Mrs Clara S. Hosewator'n subject was
"What Can Women Do to Help Take Our
Public Schools Out ef Politics. " Tbe club
has never listened to a trcnger attack upon
existing evils in school management than
Mrs. Rosewater gave. She made no saving
clause * nor paliatlng "with few exceptions. "
She set some very plain unpleasant nnnu-p
opposite thp name of the man who goce on
the school board that his name may become
kncwn to the public , and the me who says
"if you do not promote m ; friends I will
block everything you try to do , " In case
be happened to hold tbe deciding vote. She
advoca'tt * a salary for members of the
hoard and that men above political trickery
be installed , supporting her position with
tbe statement that "they wield thp mighteat
Implement eter forged by fats the educa
tion of the children " The writer desired
that "tbe teacher be raised to nobility in
the public mind and respectability In the
social world. " To reach this desired con
dition they murt be well paid and un-
hampered by the restrictions of incompetent
and Ignorant Buperloni in the persona of
supci intendents and boards If tbe women
who are by frrce of circumstances moro
kftnly interested in these things than tbe
mm. do not rise and through ell avenue *
open to them strive to bring results "our
, school will soon degenerate into one large
i political scneme. "
I Miss Bow-en then sang a eolo which re
ceived much applause. Miss Lida Wilson
I
presented us witty a paper as the club hsn
.
i ever listened to , on "The Bicycle Woman"
the "cycledonna" she called her. She told
graphically of an open air school of instrur-
' tion held lust summer in Denver , where
I 1 the professor of "Bykoology" and his inot-
I ley crew of pupils reminded her of a
nest of fledglings learning to fly. There
i ' was tbe timidity , tbe tremblings , the falls
, and bawls till at length they spread their
I w ings and flew far. far away. Miss Wilson
I thinks st.-.ce the bicycle woman has emergea
tram a Joke to a "sensible fact" and since
"the bicycle road traveled with modera
tion surely leads to the mantel of health. '
we should wish her good luck end god
speed. MIBE llowen sang the closing solo ,
and the club adjourned.
