It Omaha docs not present a cool appeir-
nnco the coming summer It will not bo because -
cause the painters , carpenters and decorators
of the city have not given their best efforts
toward that end. At this time of the- year
there Is ordinarily little activity among the
dealers In paints and wall pipers. Their pea-
eon usually commences about nix wceka
later , but this year Is an exception. For
moro than a month the demand for paper
hangers and palntera has been eo great that
many workmen arc working extra hours
and still cannot begin to do all the work
which li offered to them.
All over the city dwelling houses nre being
beautified by now porches and other Im
provements , nnd fresh paint Is adding an
nlr of cleanliness. Business blocks are being
painted and hotels and stores are frescoing
nnd paper hanging In preparation for the
summer visitors. Dealers In all parts of the
city tell the ( same ntory about the sale of
lialnta , oils and wall paper. Their Biles for
the month of March so far are twice as
great as they were in March of 1897 , and
three times as great as the sales for 1896.
"I'eoplo come to us for this kind of work
with a sort of a downcast look In their eyes , "
said ono dealer , "and ask If they are too Ute
to have BOIIIO work done. The answer to most
of thtfio has to bo that they arc , for there
are not half enough workmen In the city to
do contracts which people are anxious to lot.
Workmen In these trades arc flocking to the
city qulto rapidly at present , however , and
wo hope to meet the deminds In a ohort
time. I could contract for three times as
much work as I am able to complete. "
Another dealer said : "If I had force enough
to do all ] the contracts which are offered to1
me , I am confident that my business for
March of 1898 would run $20,000 ahead of
that of March , 1897. "
Not only Is the demand for supplies great ,
but better materiils are being sold. Cheap
work and cheap materials are nol sought as
Ifarmerly. Contrastore find that lirst class
work Is In demand and patrons are ready
and willing to pay accordingly. Much of the
prosperity In thcno lines Is attributed to
the fact that property owners are receiving
fair reittals for the first tlmo In several
years and feel that they are Justified In
making much needed repairs.
Improvements are not confined to any ono
clat of property , nor to any limited section
of the city. High and low-priced properties
alike are shaclng the prosperity. Such a
general manifestation of pride In thecity's
appearance assures that ovcithlng possible
will ba done to leivo a favorable Impression

Some ? very Interesting things concerning
the Turks and their mistreatment of Ar
menians and other Christians are told by
Mlhran Atcshlan , native of Asia Minor , who
Is in the city on business. "The only way to
prevent Mohammendans from killing Chris
tians , or infidels as they call them , Is to
exterminate Mohammedans. The funda
mental belief of the followers ot Mohammed
Is that anything done to advance their re
ligion Is Justifiable. All murder nnd rob
bery committed for the church will be i > ar-
doncd and Is encouraged. Mohammedans
are the greatest hypocrites on earth. Mo
hammed himself was a hypocrite of the
worst kind and the sultans follow closely In
the lead of their great predecessor. They
think nothing of lying to a Christian ; in
fact , they do not think It possible to lie to
an Infidel , because ho la no one. All others
besides Mohammendans , In their belief , are
mcpo brutes , unworthy of the name of man.
The sultan assures European monarchs that
reports of atrocities in Armenia are untrue.
In fact , ho will do anything to advance his
cause , yet many people credit his woid as
they would the \\ord of any gentleman. The
Turks arc extreme religious fanatics and
people who do not know them Intimately
cannot understand how blindly they follow
the directions of church leaders. They are
born to their religion and no power seems
capable of converting them to any other be
lief. The Armenians are the life of the
Turkish empire. They are the great com
mercial people of Asia .Minor . and without
them the empire would be very weak. All
treaties and promises of the sultan to pro
tect these people are of no a oJl. His word
given to an infidel amounts to nothing and
a complete overthrow of the empire Is all
that can afford protection to Christians who
arc now under bin power. "

HIS LIFE'S WORK.
It may be of Interest at this time for the
readers of The Bee 'to ' know something of
the very remarkable career of President
Schurman. Ho was born at Freetown , Prince
Edward's Island , May 22 , 1851. He comes
of English stock on the maternal side and
on the paternal Is descended from the Dutch
Schurmans who settled In New Rochelle , N.
Y. , In the early part of the eighteenth cen
tury.
Jacob Gould Schurman received his col-
leglato education In the provinces and then
studied three years at London and Edin
burgh. Ho there obtained prizes and schol
arships In Greek , English literature , political
economy and philosophy and at his gradua
tion from the University of London In 1S77
ho was awarded the university scholarship
in philosophy.
IHeslJes the degrees of B. A. and M. A. ,
which he tcok in London , he received the
degree of D. So. from Edinburgh univer
sity , being the only successful candidate
In 1878. Ho was at once elected by the Hlb-
bard trustees to fill their traveling fellow
ship , probably the best In the world , which
was open 16 graduates of any university In
Great Britain or Ireland. As he had already
passed some months In Paris , he proceeded
at once to Germany , where as Hlbbard Fel
low ho spent two years at the University
ot Heidelberg , Berlin and Gottlngen , spend
ing his holidays In Italy and Switzerland.
His special study was German philosophy ,
and ho became personally acquainted with
Its foremost living exponents. . Ho alto , at
tended lectures on literature and science.
From 1880 to 18S6 ho was professor in
Acadla college. Nova Scotia , teaching liter
ature. political economy and other subjects
In 1SSG ho was appointed professor of phll-
ospohy aLCornell. In 1890 he was made dean
of the newly created School of Philosophy
In that Instltulon. The School of Philosophy
was founded by a gift of $200,000 from
Henry W. Sago and a supplementary ap
propriation of nearly the same amount bj
the university.
In 1S92 the trustees of Cornell university
selected Dr. Schurman for the presidency of
the university , although ho was but 38 years
of age at the time. In October , 1893 , Cor
nell celebrated the twenty-fifth anniversary
of Its foundation , having at that date an
enrollment ot over l.COO students , a faculty o
140 members and a library of 112,000 volumes
and more than COO free scholarships.
Dr. Schurman Is editor of the Phllosophlca
Review and has contributed to phllosophr
cal and miscellaneous magazines. His pub
lislicd works ore : "Tho Ethics of Evolu
} . " ; ' , ' . "T" ° Eltnlcal Import ot Darwinism , '
Belief In God. " Ho Is a popular lecturer
and has been commencement orator on many
occasions. In 1890 ho gave a series of theo
logical lectures at Andover Theological seml-
CoiiRli.
I have a little boy who was nearly dead
from an attack of whooping cough. My
neighbors recommended Chamberlain's Couch
Remedy. I did not think that any medlclm.
would help him , but after giving him a few
doses of that remedy I notlceJ an Improve
ment , and ono bottle cured him entirely. It
Is the best cough medicine I ever had In the
house. J. L. Moore , South Burgettstown

ANOTHER VALUABLE INDORSEMENT OF
Ridpath's History of the World.
In what seems to the rising generation "the Ictig ago , " or , to bo precise , In 1832 ,
there wao born In Tuscaloosa , Ala. , a boy whew was destined to be loved for his good
works. John H. Vincent Is his name. Since 1888 the title of Bishop is his , by the grace
ot the Methodist Episcopal Church.
For years ho was'secretary of the M. E. Sunday School Union and editor of Its publi
cations. He was ons of the founders of the Normal and International Sunday School
Lessen System. But great as has been his work along church lines , he will bo longest
remembered as the ch'ief organizer of Chautauqua reading clrclca and summer schools
busy people's universities. The text books of the Chautauqua Reading Circles have been
qulto wide In scope books as a rule prepared by well-equipped people for this Inductive
syivtcm of education. Bishop Vincent's directing hand has guided well. HE KNOWS
HELPFUL READING ; ho does not endorse things carelessly could not do and maintain
his rank as a great educator. So this word of his regarding IM lpntIi' Hixtory IB
weighty :
"Prof. Rldpath has put 'the world' Into shape for carrying , using and enjoying.
Any men can be the mythological Atlas now. In clear and agreeable style , by compre
hensive and compact treatment , with readable type and admirable plctoral Illustrations ,
he bos made it possible for Atlas to appreciate and take delight In the burden he tears.
This book Is a permanent college chair of genjral history In one's own house.

Not every clothing store enjoys the reputation for
straight advertising that The Nebraska does. We
have earned this reputation by agreeing to do certain
things in the newspapers and by doing just those
things in the store. When wo advertise that our
children's suits at $1.25 , $1.50 , § 1.75 and § 2.00 are
better than other stores sell at $1.39 , § 1.07 , § 1.98
and § 2.89 , you can depend that they arp better , be
cause we have investigated and we know. We want
you to investigate. We want your children's trade ,
not so much for the little profit we make on a suit at
§ 1.25 or § 1.75 but because wo want the children to
get in the habit of coming here and in the habit of
putting full confidence in whatever they see over our
signature in print. For Saturday wo will be able to
offer you a new and very complete line of boys' shirt
waists and blouses at prices commencing at fifteen
cents for a good cotton waist , well made and well lil
ting , and running as high as § 1.25 for the very fin
est blouses in zephyrs and fine cambrics such goods
as cost you two dollars in other stores. These shirt
waists are a new department with us but we mean to
make it the shirt waist department of Omaha by giv
ing values such as can't be duplicated elsewhere.
See the waists in our window but don't stop at that.
Come in and criticize the quality , the fit , the Avork-
manship ; we want you to commence advertising for
us , You will as soon as you know.
Come substantial savings in prices and
