Llndsey as the toaBtmlstrcES. Mrs. Llndsey was very fiappy In this position. She first Introduced Mi * . Henrotln , who spoke of the great power of state and general federations. Every state must work out Its own prob lems , under its own peculiar conditions , and the general federatlcn thriven only as the twenfy lne state bodies tributary to It grow In strength and efficiency. Mrs. Henrotln trusts In power , not In force , and BhL ' llevcs this great power of organized women , for U.o enrichment of social life , for the co ordinating proccrs which must go on In edu In the community ction , for tiio constructive work munity , must make for the uplifting of the n < Mrsn' Stoutenbsrough spoke with her tisual "Union the Dona eloquence upon the topic , of Strength. " She explained how , though wo are all one at the mention of Lexlngtcm or Gettysburg , we are also one In our Icno of Independence.

She mcntlo cd two life club elements necessary to successful as follows : Adhesion , or the Ringing to gether of the club ; and cohesion the clinging of the club to the community life. She pal'l ' tribute to Mr * . Henrotln. to whom more than to any other is due the formation of state 'fl subject was "Women Young acid Old , " and she referred It to Solomon announced the now woman- mon , who lint " houses and lands.

"Tho now woman , " said the speaker , uses the material and the perishable to enhance the spiritual and eternal. MRS. SAWYER'S WIT. the fourth speaker and Mrs. Sawyer was her topic , "Women and the Expos tion. gave opportunity for a brilliant display of f wit. The six days of creation were the model for the six departments of the exposi tion. "Let there bo light" see the ways and means and the almighty dollar ; the expanse - panso of the firmament and the gathering of the waters-Boo the Publicity department and Mr. Roswater. The third day with plant llfo covering the earth , so came the Department of Concessions with space at TJ dollar a square foot and a percentage of gross receipts. The Department of Exhibits decorates the firmament with sun , moon and stars on the fourth day. The fifth day's work , when the leviathan and whale glide through the encircling waters , suggests the Buildings and Grounds department In its encircling of the lagoon ; and the Department of Transpor tation derives Its arch types of locomotion from the slow , majestic tread of the masto don , or the flying wings of the sixth day. Then , the six departments being formed , the creators thereof saw that It was very good and they rested , but In their dreams strange visions came and went , of lace handkerchiefs , pn ! cushions , paper flowers , fans and fancy articles without number , names or use. And out of that unrest they averred that "It IB not good for man to bo alone. " Then , how ever , they chose to follow a Grecian classic rather than a Hebrew , and so not an Eve , but a Pandora , came to the exposition tc dwell among men , and woman In the exposi tion appears not aa a "rib , " an arch support- Ins the mechanical structure , but as > "bureau. " As soon as Mrs. Sawyer could be heard otter this sally she proceeded to discuss , thoughtfully , "The Total Eclipse of Womar as a Phenomenon" in * the Transtulsslsslppl ] Exposition , after which she gave a compre hensive resume of what the exposition will offer to women and what It will expect from them , Mrs. C , W. Dawson spoke of Clara Barter nnd the Red Cross movement , giving It : genesis and evolution and closing with c itrong word In favor of aid to Cuba. Miss Llda Wilson drew a humorous picture of "Tho Old-Fashioned Girl , " as illustrated In the "timid Angelina , she ot the Ion ; tresses and splmlley waist , " and also In Mia Warner's tearful heroines. Then she hcli up the old-fashioned girl of Miss Alcott 01 the typo of the truest and best and denlec Charles Dudley Warner's assertion that th < rose has been supplanted by the chrysanthe. mum. "Tho rose has only spread Its rooti and moved a little further from the shadov of the home. " said she. Mrs. F. II. Neelcy respmded briefly to thi toast , "Mothers and Daughters.

" She brought to the memory of every woman her feeling when she pofficescd her first diamond , that cpcclal cue unlike every other , euggeetlve of rosy dreams and eacred relations , but she said. "Diamonds of cryttal are Inconsistent and burdensome. They have to bo provided with suitable environments of velvets and laces. Diamonds of thought raako their own Bet ting , and , " eho continued , "what la the giddy world of focloty with all Its glitter compared with the Intellectual stimulus of a club like this ? " Mrs. C. C. Bcldcn followed Mrs. Dickey with a bright speech on the "Genus Homo. " She thought Pope had fn mind the coedu cation of the sexes when be penned his Im mortal words concerning the "proper study of mankind , " and she felt sure that there- was no more Interesting study If proper to womankind.

Ruth , a former wife of a soldier of the rebellion , IMS been bound over to the grand Jury In the sum of $500 by United States Commissioner Anderson on the charge of presenting fraudulent pension claims to the government agent at Desl Molnes , Charles H. Robinson. The woman is a resident of this city , living on North Twenty-third street. The woman ban been drawing a pension 'raudulently ever since 1882 and has received In , that tlmo about $600. Sht was formerly wlfo of Edward A. Ruth , a soldier , but was divorced from him. About six months after the divorce was granted the soldier died and his former wlfo made application 'or a pension and was granted one. On her rearing the woman alleged that she "did not know that as a dlvorqed wife "of a soldier she had 10 right to a pension , although the application papera specifically put the ques tion of whether she .had been divorced or lot. The woman said that she had made out the papers on the advice ot friends , some of whom may bo arrested for complicity In the offense. Champagne as a restorer has no equal.

Wo do not think that Bolln's actual shortage - ago amounted to more than that , " said Mr. Metz yesterday. "The fact of the matter la that Bolln used about one-half of the al leged shcrtage to make up a. deficit In the school fund , and If that Is lost the bmdri- men of Dolln as school treasurer should be held responsible for that. We are ready to make good whatever the city Is entitled teen on our bond , but wo do not think that that Is more than $25.000 or $30,000.

BEHIND SCENES WITH THE BOYS' BAND Military Training of the YonnK tcm Who Have Entertained Omnha Au- UlencoM with Their Mnnlonl AtilUt- During ; Week. ( Forty little Austro-Hungarlans dressed In the gay red military uniform of their native land , deporting themselves Hko grown-up soldiers and ploying horns and drums with a great deal more skill than many men a pcore of years older , hove been the attraction thla week at the Boyd. This band Is o bit of Europe brought to America. The leader , Herr Mlkel Scbll- zonyl , Is an officer In the Austrian army and speaks very llttlo English. The boys' tutor , Herr Nucssbaum , speaks only a few words' of English and none of the boys can con verse In English. Ono of the little fellows slng.s English words to the tune of "There'll Bo a Hot Time In the Old Town Tonight , " and this unusual accomplishment excites the envy of all his less precocious companions. These boys arc from a school which Is maintained by the Austro-Hungarian govern ment at Billed , a Saxon settlement 500 miles south ot Buda i'cst. Into this school nil boys Who show unusual talent for music are put with the intention of training them for musicians In the Austro-Hunffarlan army. The forty boys who make up the Knaben- Kapello were chosen from this school , and the consent of the government and the boys' parents had to be secured before they could bo removed from the school and brought to tour America. The youngest of the boys , Mlkel Braun , the llttlo drummer , 'la only 6 , end the oldest , Magyar Knaben Mlkel Bonn , Is 14. So complete and thorough Is the musical education of this band that the play ers orchestrate their own parts and play 300 different selections. When they first came to America- they played only classical music , but the manager thought popular airs should bo Intermingled with the classical and In a very short tlmo the leader was ready to play selections varying from Sousa's marches to rag songs. UNDER MILITARY RULE. Herr Schllzonyl exercises the strictest mil itary discipline over these boys and they never give him any trouble. Obedience has been taught to them from the day they en tered the school at Billed and they deport themselves like men In contrast to the con duct 'which might be. expected from such young boys. Each day they rise at 0:30 : , have prayers , eat breakfast at 7:30 : , attend practice from 9:30 : till 11 , have dinner at 12 and school In reading , writing.and arithmetic under Herr Nuessbaum from 2 till 3:30. : After school they spend the remainder of the after noon In walking and riding to places ot In terest. At 6:30 : supper Is eaten and they are taken to the theater. Immediately after their concerts they are sent to bed to dream of the mother country far across the sea. The welfare of these little sons of Franz Josct Is carefully looked after by Mrs. Bray , wife of the troupe's manager. Her greatest trouble Is to get things cooked so that the boys will eat. American cooking Is not to their taste and they will go hungry rather than eat the dishes Yankees relish. Beef steak does not appeal to them In the least and they will not taste white bread. They spurn pie , cake and candy and will not touch Ice cream because they say It burns their stomachs. 'Boiled ' beef , rye bread , vegetables cooked with sugar and vinegar , beer , pepp- rika and all kinds of fruits and nuts are the thliiES that suit these llttlo epicures. Mrs. Bray says that occasionally one of the little fellows gets homesick when ho receives a letter from homo , but the other boys talk him out of It nd they go on with their play as If America were their home. This Interesting band of little folks has been In the United States only a few months and will remain for two years. They opened their engagement In San Francisco. After playing the cities on the Pacific coast they came to Denver , Omaha and Kansas City From hero they go to St. Louis and Milwau kee and then start for a tour of eastern cities.

A domestic happened upon a couple of burglars while they were rifling the resi dence of Matthew A. McGinn at 1910 Ca s street , last night , end frightened them away. The "crooks" nevertheless succeeded In get ting away with spoils consisting of at least a couple of watches , a diamond ring , a gold necklace , other Jewelry and $5 In money , all being valued at about $150. The burglary was committed while the oc cupants of the house were away. Shortly after 10 o'clock the domestic , Mlsa Stett , re turned to the house. The burglars were In the building at the time end as she opened a door they fled downstairs from the second story and but of the rear door.

To the Editor of The Bee : Enclosed please find statement relative to the Nebraska Cuban Relief commission , which covers work done to the present time. The amount of food products subscribed by our citizens and forwarded by our commis sion Is considered as show'ng the liberality of our citizens , and as constituting Important acquisitions by the commltteo appointed by Mr. McKlnley In 'charge of the work nt New York City. Ono of the cars of corn , compris ing 700 bushels , was specially coca-signed by the citizens of Wajno township , Cuater county , to Consul Barker , Sagua La Grande , and wo have advices from the central com mltteo that It was so forwarded , and It is possible that at the tlmo ot Mrs. ThurstonTs visit at said port thla relief was there or near said place. Our commission has asked for the appoint ment of subcommittees through the press anil by circulars , by mayors of cities , county boards and ministers throughout the state. That contributions have not been more is probably due to the lack of general knowl edge of the exact condition of the sufferers In the various provinces of Cuba , and In some Instances there possibly may have existed a suspicion that supplies might not go to the actual relief of destitute Cubans ; but It ought to be understood that our committee 1,5 , acting under a central committee , the president of which Is Hon. Stephen E. Bar ton of Now York , which committee Is com missioned by President McKlnley , arxl con tributions go through the consuls of the "five provinces , assisted by the accredited agents of the central committee. By the report you will ECO that we have forwarded some days ago five carloads of coin did cine- carload ot flour , and recently have fihlppcd a carload comprising about 30,000 pounds of flour , and have on track to go forward now one carload of corn.
