After Friday these energetic club women
will tnko a week's rest , preparatory
to the flnaf congress during
the last week of the month. That
session will bo devoted to meetings of the
National Council of Jewish Women , the
National Council of Women , Woman's Suf
frage and the Women's Christian Temperance -
anco tnilon.
In speaking of the effect of so many
clubs and club meetings upon women , Mrs.
Draper Smith said , "Why no , wo do not
overdo It. There are . " ,000 clubwomen In this
state. The only ones who In any way neglect
their homo duties are thoio who devote
their tlmo for the advantage nnd advance
ment of the fi.OOO.
fonsldcr the chle ! benefit of this con-
j. . . comes from the meeting and having
with us these celebrated women , rather than
what they say from the platform. The'
west Is more undeveloped tluin the cast , and
the privilege of meeting distinguished peo-
pie and associating with them furthers our
advancement. The close of the exposition
will see us tar In advance of our condition
at Its opening.
"With so many different conventions , no
woman can fall to find Interest In some
of them. And It Is our' hope that many of
the women will remain until the last ses-
plon. It la perhaps unfortunate that the
Congress Is In session during Jubilee week ,
but those who do not attend It liavo
the opportunity of being present the last
week In October.
MORE SCHOOLCHILDREN COME

There are three Nebraska towns In which
no achool was held yesterday Seward -

of their houses of learning were
closed and the pupils were en-
joying a day's recreation at the exposition.
At H o'clock a special train of ten coaches
drew Into the Durltngton station. Each car
was gaily decorated with flags and bunting ,
while the fluttering handkerchiefs at every
window and the laughter nnd shouting ol
small boys and girls as the train came to u
stop clearly Indicated an excursion of school
children.
The youngsters numbered TOO all told.
| There were 300 from Seward , In charge of

, L. H. Wilson , and 200 each from Aurora and
York , In charge of Superintendents K. \ .
Hyde and W. D. Bower , respectively. They
scrambled down from the earn and up onto

their teachers were capable of to keep them
together and prevent accidents. A doiun

party nnd on these the children were placed
and conveyed to the exposition grounds.

The latest advices at the local office of
the Chicago & Northwestern railway con-
corning the special trains for the preslden-
| tlal party are to the rffert that both Presi
dent McKlnley's and General Miles' trains
will arrive nt the Omaha union depot at
8.110 o'clock on Tuesday evening.
Th3 first train will carry General Miles
and party , who will await the arrival of
President McKlnley and party at the union
depot , both parties then proceeding to the
reviewing stand to witness the grand Ak-
,
j J Sar-Ben parade. The train of President
McKlnley is scheduled to leave Clinton , la. ,
nt 11:20 : a. m. , and a run of nine hours will
bo made from Clinton on to Omaha , the
daylight trip from Chicago to Omaha giv
ing President McKlnley and his party an
opportunity to see the states of Illinois and
Iowa and to make brief stops at towns
i along the line of the Northwestern where
'
crowds may bo assembled to greet the na
tion's chief.
President1 McKlnley Is not ( o bo deprived
of the privilege of viewing the Ak-Sar-Ilim
I pnradcs because he was not In the city this
week The beautiful pageants will be te-
prated next week while the president Is a
i guest of the city , and the grandeur of the
I scenes will bo enhanced by the union of
I the f\\o parades Into one. This will be done
on Tuesday night , the tlmo set for tha arrival -
' rival of the president In the city. This
i much has been decided upon by too hoard
of governors.
The line of march will not bo so extended
as on the two evenings of thfs week , as the
purpose of the parade Is to show vho beauty
of the floats to thu president , and they will
J simply be passed In review before him. The
flo t ] will be assembled along Douglas street ,
with the head of the line resting on Tenth
and Fa m a HI streets , and no lights will be
t'urncd on until the hour arrives tor starting
from that point.
The board of governors will repair to the
depot to receive the presidential party ,
along with the escort provided for the" oc-
I casion , and the reception committee of the
! exposition. When the visitors turn up
j Farnam street the parade will bo started
and fall In behind. When the first of
I the floats rcachoH Fifteenth street the line
will bo halted until the presidential party
, becomes seated In a position to review the
j parade. It Is expected that the visitors will
i bo given places on the stand In front of the
city hall , as It la thought the crowd will be
too great to permit the carriages to take po
sitions In the street.
After these arrangements have been per
fected the parade will move again In grand
review , going west as far as Nineteenth
street , then south to Harney , east to
i Fifteenth , and then north to the den. It
I may bo necessary to go east on Harncy to
j Fourteenth If It Is found that the
1 parade Is too long to permit the head
of the line to cross at Fifteenth street.
There will be between thirty and thirty
1 live floats in line. All of the electric floats
will be used , and most of the Samson Hosts.
Two or three of the latter were spoiled by
the rain thla morning , ni they had not been
put under cover.
It has not yet been decided what arrange
ment shall bo adopted for the placing of
Uie floats. U Is possible the lectrlo and

STILL JHTING ( MCDONALD
Another Injunction IN Sonnlit to
IlfH trill n the ( iiirluiKU Contrac
tor from Controlling.
An Injunction was asked from Judge
Scott yesterday morning on behalf of Henry
Coombs against the city und Garbage Con
tractor Alexander MacDonald , to prevent
them from Interfering with the plaintiff lu
the matter of hauling garbage at will.
| The real object of the petition is to con-
J l test the contract between the city and Mc
Donald , which has a llttlo over five years to
run out of the ten for which It was made.
A full Investigation of the charges against
McDonald of violation of his contract Is
afso asked for and It Is alleged that the
city Is unlawfully paying $1,500 a year.
It Is also * cFalmed that the
garbage ordinance , No. 4,402 , Is unconstitu
tional and practically Inoperative Inasmuch
as It requires the garbage to be * removed for
the proper sanitation of the city and then
makes It a misdemeanor for any private In
dividual to haul any away , even though the
contractor should be derelict In his obliga
tion. Another claim of unconstitutional/ !
is that the giving to McDonald of an exclu
sive contract nnd thereby debarring all
other persons from a right to haul away
from their premises objectloanblc matter Is
special legislation In favor of one Individual1
and against the rights and Interests of the
community In 'general. The matter was
presented by I. J. Dunn , who has been active
In bringing repeated charges against Mac-
Donald. Last October ho went before the Ad-
vltory board of the city and In the February
following secured a resolution from the
board against MacDonald.

A startling Incident , of which Mr. John Oli

Chaunccy M. Dcpew , accompanied by
President S. H. Galloway of the Now York
Central , arrived In Omaha at 5 p. in yester
day after a quick run from Now York. Dr.
Depow will participate In the exercises of
New York day today and will start on the
return trip tonight. I |
The party left Now York at 8:30 : a. m.
Thursday nnd arrived In Chicago at C:1G : a.
m. yesterday , completing the run to the
Mississippi river In twenty-five hours. The
routes taken were the Now York Central ,
the Lake Shore and the Northwestern. The
special train was made up of the finest
equipment and the trip was made so
smoothly that Dr. Dcpew was not In the
least fatigued by his long journey.
The tlmo of the party's arrival was not
generally knonn and had been announced
for one hour later. The prominent repub
licans of this locality , therefore , were unable - '
able to pay their respects In person to their
chief and will take that opportunity at the
hotel or during the exercises at the grounds.
General Manager Clarkson was waiting I i
when the train drew up and tendered Dr. i
i
Depew the welcome of the exposition man- !
agement. He said that President AVattles ' 1
and other olflclals wished to meet the dls- ,
tlngulshcd guest after he had become refreshed - |
freshed from his journey , nnd to conduct '
him to the exposition grounds and later to I I
the Ak-Sar-Den ball. Dr. Dopew accepted
the first Invitation cordially , remarking
that ho had heard the praises of the ex
position at night sung In no measured terms. I
Others who were present to extend an of
ficial welcome to the party were : Hon.
Jacob Amos , ex-mayor of Syracuse , N. Y. ;
I H. B. Hcbert of the Produce Exchange ,
New York , nnd Major A. M. Wheeler , all
members of the New York state commis
sion.
\ot n Stranifcr In Omaha.
Dr. Depow remarked on his way to a car
riage that ho was by no means a stranger
In the city , having made brief stops hereon
on a number of occasions. "Mr. Galloway ,
who Is with me , " he added , "qulto con
siders himself an Omaha citizen , as ho was
resident hero for a number of years at the
ttmo ho was president of the Union Pa
cific. "
He was asked regarding the subject of his
speech today nnd replied with one of his
contagious laughs , "Omaha , nothing but
Omaha , the center of the world. "
Although the special made a direct trip
from Now York there will be less haste on
the return and Monday will be spent In
Chicago. Dr. Depew will make an address
In the afternoon nt the Auditorium under
the auspices of the Hamilton club and In
the evening ho will bo tendered a banquet
by the same organization , which will bo
followed by one of the guest's famous after
dinner speeches.
The main body of the New Yorkers will
arrive this morning. There will be a party
of twelve from the Produce exchange and
a number from the Merchants' association
nnd the Board of Trade , Dr. Depew's party
Is quartered at the Paxtoa and the New
York headquarters will be divided between
that bouse and the Mlllard , where reservn-
tlons have been tnado for the Merchants'
association.
