i At army headquarters here the recent
appointment of general officers by tbe presi
dent la received with pleasure, not only be
causa the men so advanced are deserving
of every honor which can be conferred upon
them, but because the appointments Indi
cate that the president la doing what ha
caa under adverse laws to reward men who
hava faithfully - and well served the gov
ernment In minor positions, and that, while
restricted In the number of appointments,
be will provide for retirement at higher
rank than at present held by men who are
especially deserving.
This opinion Is based upon the fact that
of th men appointed to ba brigadier gen
erals all will retire under the age limit
within a year, the ona having tha longest
terra to serve being General Simon Snyder,
who will retire next February. General
Bird will be the first to retire, his term of
service expiring by limitation June 17 of tba
present year, while Oeneral Auman will re

especially pleaaed with the appointment of
General Auman, who by many of the offi
cers of the army Is held to be the. hero of
the fight at Ban Juan hill In Cuba. Ha
waa Captain Auman then, commanding a
company in the Thirteenth regiment of
Infantry. In the battle at San Juan everv
regimental officer waa killed or Intured. so
that before the fight was half over tba
command of the regiment aevolved upon
Captain Auman. His subordinates in the
regiment and those who observed closelv
Its operation were loud in tbelr praise
of the vetersn captain and many were very
much disappointed when in the rewards
which came to officers for excellent work
In Cuba the Dam of Auman was not uoon
tha list.
Jaatlce Comes .at Last.
Tha failure ot tha men in higher au
thority to recognize the work of tbe cap
tain called forth many protests and several
letters appeared in army Journals calling
attention to the oversight oa tbe part oV
the government. Mr. Roosevelt was at San
Juan and probably had personal knowl
edge of the work of Captain Auman on
that day, so the friends of that officer look
upon hi present appointment aa in a de
gree removing whatever Injustice may have
been done him previously.

The chief quartermaster of the depart

The officer who have held the position of

well acquainted with the horse and mule
barns at Lathrop, Mo., which ar now said
to be used by the British government lu
defiance of the rights ot neutral nations.
Said one of these officers: "Th mute de
pot at Lathrop is ons of the most complete
In the west. Mr. Guyton, tbe principal
owner of the business, is one of th men
who sell large numbers ot horses and mule
to the American government and to other

to feed the horse and mules brought to
that depot by their purchaalag agents. His
contract calls for the feeding ot 5.000 anl

says that frequently thn art as many as

Woman's Work in Club and Charity
"A prominent club woman," whose ident
ity . Is generally guessed and who is ad
mitted to be from New York, is credited
with the statement that "tbe General Fed
eration has been nearly wrecked by Ineffi
cient handling; It now wants a woman at
tha head who Is known, not merely ss
sumed, to be a skilled hand and a broad
minded leader." This statement sounds
rather awkward coming from " a promi
nent member" of the state federation. that
has supplied the present vice president and
the woman who for one year of the present
term acted as president of the General Fed
eration In th absence of Mrs. Lowe and.
Incidentally, the woman that that same
state federation is bending every effort to
elect as Mrs. Lowe's successor at the Los
Angeles biennial, Mrs. Dlmies T. S. Denl
son, president ot Sorosis.
In a full-pags article in the San Fran
cisco Examiner of April Mrs. Mary I'rqu
hart Lee Is quoted as saying: "Some of
the friends of Mr. Robert J. Burdette, past
president of the California federation, ar
urging her canqMdacy for th presidency of
the General Federation, but probably the
beat-loved woman In th federation today
and the one best fitted to bsrmonlxe all
factions and insure the looking to better
things la Mrs. Sarah Piatt Decker of Den
ver." Mrs. Mary Vrquhart Lee is not
alone in this speculation. There Is a strong
undercurrent of feeling all over the country
In favor of Mrs. Decker, who fulfills all ot
the requirements stipulated by the "promi
nent club woman" from New York and la
sufficiently tar removed from Maasacbusetts
and Georgia and tbe sections lnfiuenced by
them to act unbiased tor ths best Interests
of tbe organization. Her ability to direct
large affairs cannot be questioned, owing to
hsr past valuable service to the General
Federation of Woman's Clubs, snd it seems
especially fitting that this trying period of
sectional differences shoold be embraced to
try what the ability ot th mlddl west can
do for the General Federation.
To be sure Mrs. Burdetts represents a
aection even further removed from the east
and south, but It must be admitted thst
she Is prominent in clubdom for having vis
ited the clubs and federations of twenty
five different states during th last six
months rather than tor any especially
prominent service she has rendered the
General Federation outside of California.
As for Mrs. Alice Bradford Wiles or Chi
cago there la such a diversity of opinion
regsrdlng her ability among Chicago club
women that It Is difficult to estimate her
real strength aa a candidate,
Mrs. Denlaon's service In the exscutlvs
of the General Federatloa ot Woman's Clubs

OMAHA. Nrb., April 17 -Mr. A. Rose
water, City Knglneer, City: Dear Sir
Will you kindly publicly answer the fol
lowing queKtloiiR, In the next Issue of The
Omaha Bee, without equivocation or eva
sion, for. the benetlt of the public:
First Are there nny mortgages, of rec
ord, of any kind whatever, covering block
2, Bemls park, or covering the twenty acres
In the southwest quarter of the southeast
quarter ot section 32, township 16, range 13?
Second Are there any bacK taxes on the
above twenty acres? t
Third As this land Is bounded on the
body, and then she will have the support
of the east, which promises to have a large
representation at Los Angeles.
Mrs. Decker Is not a candidate for the
presidency and is in favor of the election
ot Mrs. DenUon, but Colorado club women
are fairly insisting upon her accepting a
nomination, and if she does she will un
doubtedly receive the support of the middle
west, and probably ot the south as well.
The committee appointed by the art de
partment of the Woman's club has made Its
selection of tour busts and two figures to
be placed In tbe reading room of the High
school. The busts are Minerva. Homer,
Hermes and AJax and the figures Michael
Angelo's Lorenzo de Medici and Glulano de
Medici. Tbey are to occupy the Immovable
windows on two sides of the room and will
be in place about the middle of May.

Townsend, leader; Dr. Mlllen. assistant

treasurer of the philanthropic fund.
It was decided to continue the department
'meetings until May 1 and the committee for
next year's program will meet during the
coming week to decide upon the course for
next season. Several excellent suggestions
were made by members of tbe department,
among them being the study of the model
house, to consist of a series of papers and
discussions on the various rooms, depart

EIGHT-HOUR DAY FOR 1;0lu
Chief Donahue Looks with Favor 00 Three
Shift System.
THINKS IT WOULD IMPROVE SERVICE
May Recommend the Chance to Fire
and Police Board and City
Council After IavestU
statins It Farther.
Chief of Police Donahue Is in favor of
Introducing the three-shift system In the
Omaha police department. Instead of having
the two shifts, as at present. Tbe new
system would mean eight hours a
day work tor the men Instead of twelve, as
at present, and the chief ' believes the
change can be made without increasing the
present force. He ia at present Investi
gating the question more fully, and In a
short time will bring It before the board
and the city council. The tbree-shlft svstem
is In vogue at Denver. Nashville. Milwaukee
and Buffalo and has lately been adopted at
Minneapolis and other cities.
Under the present system the men go to
work at 7 o'clock In the morning and work
until T in the evening, with an hour and a
halt for lunch, the night men going on at
7 in the evening and reporting off, except
Ix men who do dog-watch duty, at 4 In
the morning, these men being allowed forty
minute for lunch. Th chief believes that
by th clght-bour plan mor efficient work
could be done and the men would be In a
much better condition to do the work.
Works Well Elsewhere.
"I advocated such a change two years
ago in my annual report," said the chief,
"and have since written to several chiefs
ot police who have worked under both sys
tems, and all who have tried it seem bet
ter satisfied with the new plan Tbe chief
of police at Denver wrote that the service
under tbe eight-hour system was much bet
ter and th men were in better condition
for work. I received the same reply from
Nashville. I believe It can be done with
the same number of men. Th first shift
would report tor duty at I In th morning
and quit at 4, the second work until 1
and the third until 8 in the morning. Tbe
men would be allowed fifteen or twenty
minutes for lunch. All the men would be
available for emergency duty.
"When a man walks a beat for twelve
hours In tbe hot sun In the summer time
he feels very little like coming back for an
hour'a work in the gymnasium. The new
system would mean another captain and
poaslbly another sergeant, but It could be
done with very little extra expense. I am
goiag to attend the national convention of
chiefs at Louisville. Ky., in Msy, and will
find out more about the efficiency of the
new system. If there are no unfavorable
reports at the convention I shall bring tbe
matter before the board and council."

AND IF YOU HATE IT, SMITH'S
GBEEN MOUNTAIN KEN0YAT0B
WILL CUBE YOU OF IT.
Why be sick vtheii rre gaaruntce this
medicine to help 700!
Some people are nptly described at
"alwayg grunting." Tltey never seem
to feci just right, and if one thing isn't
the matter with them miothcr is. These
are the people that wo always eel like
crossing the street to avoid meeting.
They are always more or Icks ill because
tlicy refuse to adopt a sensible course.
When they feel somo particular symp
tom they dose themselves with various
things which aio supposed to bo good
for what that symptom indicates.
There is no uso in pursuing such a
course as this. Tho only way to get
cured and stay cured is to find the root
of tbe trouble and pull that root out.
Now, everybody knows that weakness
or diseases of the stomach, liver or kid
neys and consequent impure blood it
responsible for more than ninety per
cent of the ills that flesh is heir to.
The only aensible thing to do i to
take Smith's preen Mountain Renova
tor. That doesn't waste any time chas
ing around for this symptom or that
symptom, but coes right to the vital .
organs, cleans tbemout and strengthen!
and upbuilds them, and purifies and en
riches the blood. Just a soon aa this
is done you get well, and just aa long aa
you keep yourself In proper condition
by the use of this famous old medicine
you are going to stay well.
There isn't any guesswork about this.
In its native New England Lome,
where it is the standard household
remedy for old and young, rich and
poor, Smith's Green Mountain Renova
tor has been effecting the most wonder
ful cures for a great many years, and it s
will do for 70a just what It has done for
( others.
