' The reorganization of the IJcurd of County
Commlrsloncrs la not going to change the po
litical complexion of thai body , for the rca-
ecti that ono republican will step out and
another will step In , A. C. Harto succeeding
03 , M. Stcnberg. Owing to the fact that the
jolltlc3 of the beard will not change , but
few of the old appointees arc expected to
bo succeeded by now men.
During the last day or two the republican
menlhern of Iho bcurd have Held several
eeoslocs- and It Is glvta out that whtu A.
C. Harto IB Inducted Into office next week
tnosIt not all , of the appointees of the
present board will bo retained. It la pos-
elblo that one Janitor may go , bul the chances
( or Ills being dropped are not o strcag as
ihoy wcro n week ago. At that time the name
of N. Oi Was'iUiglon wao on the Hit of thoao
who wuld have to look for other employ
ment , but elnco that time considerable pres-
euro has been brought to bear and It Is quite
likely that Mr. Washington will stay. Judge
( Baxter took the Initiative and wrote a let-
itcr to the commleslciiers , asking that Mr.
( Washington bo retained. This letter was prc-
coated to the tbor county otllclals and nearly
all of them signed. This letter will be pre
sented to tie ! commissioners. It sets out that
fWushlngtc.il has been ono of the best Janitors
over In1 the employ of the county and that
ills removal at this tlmo would not only bo
A serious detriment , but would bo a failure
to recognize the loyalty of the colored voters.
Four of Uio five commissioners being repub
licans , It Is contended that the endorsement
will carry considerable weight.
County Auditor Tale feels secure In his
place , and while ho has no assurances his
friends say that ho will be ruippolnted. They
Indst that ho has attended strictly to busi
ness and has never cntagonlzcd any of the
ambitions of the leaders of the party and
that there Is every reason why he'ehould
GUccced < hlnisclf.
Mel 'Hocrner ' , clerk to the board. Is one of
the officials who can read u. clear titleto an
other term. Ho has occupied hispresent posi
tion a number of yearo and those who are en
the Inside say that the has a euro thing uuilcr
the new regime. They eay that ho iias ! al
ways been at his pest of duty and IB well
. qualified for the position.
BANK ON THEIR RECORDS.
The position of superintendent of the
county building Is held by Miles D. Hnuck
end aa thcro arc no new candidates for the
place It Is contended 'that ' bo will wl i In a
caater and will be elected by a unanimous
vote of the board.
W. S. Atkwlth stands the best chance foi
appointment as county agent and If the re
publicans do not change their minds , he
will secure the plum. There arc a couple of
other candidates for the position , but as
( the pins are put up nt th's tlmo they arc
Slot In It Cor an : Instant. Askwlth contends
that during his Incumbency ho has saved
the public many thousands , of dollars by
fweodlng out unworthy pensioners upon Doug-
Jos county , and also by compelling con
tractors to furnish supplies that have met
the conditions of the contracts under which
the- bids were made.
George Wright , superintendent at the
county hospital , feels that he Is entitled tr.
another term and the majority of the county
commissioners feel that way , too. They eay
ithat Wright's administration has been a
clean ono , free from scandal , ana that ho
bos , run the Institution In a most eccaomlca"
manner , la addition' ' to taking excellent care
of the \\arda of the county. If Wright Is
roappolntcd , his wife will again secure the
appointment of roilrcn of the place , or at
Boast that Is said to be the plan as 'formiu '
Sated at this UnTe. The other places at the-
county hospital have not been subjected to
consideration but they will bo taken up and
( passed upon some time during the next few
days. There UTan engineer , a couple of fire
men , a witchman , an Interne , several nurses ,
laundreMca and others , but as the salaries
attached to the positions arc not largo , there
He not a very lively scramble for the places ,
The reorganization of the board Is not
( bothering the commissioners to any great
extent. They concede that as four of the
five members are republicans , the lone demo
crat cannot receive very much , unles It Is
toandcd over to i him as a present. How
ever , County Commissioner Hector Is quite
likely to have ono good committee probably
finance and will a'so have a place on several
of the others.
The chairmanship of the board Is settled
. hnd It will go to W. I. Klerstead , the senior
uncmttr. Whllo this may not hiavo1 been
agreed upoa , thcro Is an unwritten rule ot
the board , ono that Is aa old as the board
itself , that the oldest member of the po-
Ultlcal party In power shall bo named as
chairman In the event of a reorganization.
Upon his election , ho names the committees
for the year , who servo until a successor Is
elected.
A CoiupurlMOii.
Now remedies put forth with exaggerated
claims are continually coming up : some
flourish awhile" fashionable novelties , but
P nearly all are forgotten before the end of the

In favor and popularity during the past
twenty-five years. Those who once use It

OAUNIVAti NOTES.
The management was well pleased with
ho large attendance of the little ones at the
agoon yesterday. The "oodles" of fun the
children got out of the Ice and tobogganp
was perfectly satisfactory for the extra trou
ble and worry In looking alter them and to
see that none were Injured Iho Ice was In
beautiful shape at 9 n. m. , nt 3 p. m. It was
different , twt the fun was there and the big
ones and little tots minded It not ; they
oiled , frisked , and chased each other , and
ivhcn tired went to the warming room to
catch their breath , then nt It again. And as
'or the toboggan slide "they didn't do a
hlng" to those poor toboggans. By 11:30 :
a. m , flvte Jwd to bo sent to the toboggan ,
hospltdl for repairs , and the remaining onea
wcro kept whizzing down the slide In quick
succession , until 1 p. m. , nt which time all
or the attendants were given ono hour's
rest as they were almost ready to collapse.
At 2 p. m. the rush for the slide was larger
than over , anJ Manager Love found It nec
essary to weed out a. lot of the larger boys ,
wiio were monopolizing the rides , and gave
the girls chance to have some of the fun.
A day of pleasure for the children , a lot oi
happiness and fun and not a single acci
dent , all of which was remunerative enough
for the Exposition Concession department
and the Ice Carnhal managers , who were
equally Interested In the children's day.
The skating on the lagoon Is better than
over , the Ice Is Hooded nightly and kept In
the best possible condition , and the low1
admission charged at the gates , giving a rldo
on the toboggan and free admission to the
co rink , makes It reasonable enough to suit
all.

NOV L AND ENTERTAINING PROGRAM GIVEN

fur the Club at the i\iionltloii
Other Jlatern ( of
I IlunlncH , , | |
The Department of Philosophy and Ethics
of the Woman's club has devoted itself for
the greater part ot this year to the study ot
Emerson under the guidance ot Mrs. Mary
Garardi Andrewo , and It gave n program
Illustrative ot Us work before the club yes
terday. Miss Edna Williams , accompanied
by Miss McDowell , pang the opening num-
' , er. "The nirthday of a King , " by Neld-
Jlnger , and responded to her encore by
Schubert's song , "Who la Sylvia ? " Mrs.
Andrews then called for quotations from
Emerson's writings and twelve members of
: ho class responded with some very happily
'hoscn selections , after which the first
paper of the day was read by Mrs. Urlon.
This was a carefully written paper , en
titled "Emerson as a Man. " It presented
briefly the circumstances of his childhood
and the character of his early training ondi
paused to note the beginnings ot spiritual
Interest and the season of transition ! which
was followed by the settlement at Concord
and the decades ot growth and fruitage.
The writer then passed to an Interesting1
comparison of Franklin and Emerson ; the
ono standing for the real the other for the
Ideal ; the one Illustrating the prose of
American life , tie other Its poetry ; the
power of the ono limited by the bounds of
: ommon sense , while the appeal of the other
Js to the wider Imagination ; the one ready
with an Improved axle grease , while the
other advises "hitch your wagon to n star. "
Tha other paper of the afternoon was read
by Mrs. VanHorne , and It was a keen and
discriminating analysis of Emerson's power
ns a thinker. The health and vigor of Ms1
thought In combination with a etrlklng sim
plicity and directness of expression ; the
restful temper and the spirit of repose
which awxikcns thought , nnd calms and re
freshes at the same time , were dwelt uponl
and the paper closed with Emerson's state
ment of his belief In Immortality.
MTF. Caldwell's contrlbuton to the program
was of r.n unusual character. It cons'lsted
of the estimates of others regarding Emer
son as a poet and prophet , and the sslcatlons
from his critics were memorised and re- "
cited. .
'Miss ' Edith Dumont closed the program
wlt.h . an arrangement for the violin of two
of MenJelssohn's "Songs Without Words. "
She was accompanied by Miss Ruth Wiley.
Tho. special guest of the afternoon was Mrs.
Bartruff , secretary of the Lincoln Womans'
club. She was Introduced by the president
and spoke a few 'words of congratulation.
During the business hour a discutsiou
upon the advisability of maintaining head
quarters upon the exposition grounds .brought .
out quite a difference of opinion. 'Mrs.
Mat'Murphy ' thought the entire transrals-
slsslppi region should be conceived with such
an enterprise Mrs. Dawson thought the
Omaha Woman's club should be the hostess
upon such an occasion. Miss Falrbrother
offered to unite with the club In maintaining
headquarters which should also accommo
date the Woman's Weekly. Mrs. Ford coun
seled haste , as available space was fast
being contracted for > bjr others , and Mrs.
Belden's motion Instructing Mrs. Draper
Smith , the secretary of the State Federation
of clubs , to lay the matter before that body ,
giving them the first opportunity to estab
lish headquarters If they desired , was passed.
It was voted on motion of iMIss Fair-
brother to continue a work begun last year
and pay for another course of lessons In
cooking , to ibe given by Mrs. MadMurphy ,
to a class of twelve girls.
A letter was read from Mrs. G. M. Lam-
bertson of Lincoln , librarian for the State
Federation of Clubs , thanking the club for a
donation of $50 to the library.
Mra. Herring announced the program to
be given today In Lincoln under the aus
pices of the educational committee of the
State .Federation In connection with the
meeting of the State Teachers' association ,
and gave notice of a special arrangement
for -attendants upou the meeting to visit the
exhibit of the IHaydon Art club now open
In that city. iNotlco '
'wm given of the re
ception to bo given by the club on Saturday
