Chasfs oa Northwestern.
The resignation of Henry C. Mahanna,
fllatiict auperlntendent of the Nebraska
and Wyoming division of the Northwestern
at Fremont,, has, been accepted by General
Manajrer si dwell, to be effective at once.
Mr, Mahanna gave lt as his Intention to
retire from active railroad work and to
take up . hi residence in Reading, Pa.,
where he lived prior to coming west to
take aoryloe with the Northwestern. Mr.
Mahanna has been in the railroad buslnees
(or about thirty-seven years, and Is said
to be one of the beat superintendents In
this part of the country. It Is understood
bis ' opinions and those of General Man
ager Bldwell differed on many, points and
that there has been friction between the
two men for some time- Mr. Mahanna was
a great admirer of Horace O. Burt, "who
was at one time general manager of the
western lines of the Northwestern, and at
no time tried to conceal his admiration of
the Burt methods of conducting a railroad.
The district presided over by Mr.
Mahanna 'was the largest of the North
western system went of the Missouri river,
both In point of mileage and business. It
extended fr6m Fremont to Missouri Valley,
Omaha, South Omaha, Lincoln, Hastings,
Superior and Norfolk.
- The official announcement come from
Norfolk that, effective today, the eastern j
dlvlnlon, over which Mr. Mahanna has had
charge,, is abolished, and that C. H. Rey
nolds, superintendent In charge at Nor
folk, will have supervision over this dis
trict. In addition to the mileage be has
been looking; .'after. The merging of the
two district makes the largest division
In the Northwestern system, with 60 miles
of tract. The change, It la said, saves
tnlleage for a number, of. .crews and lets
out several.

WCUX II CLL'S A83 CHARITY
Accrdlng to the report of the correspond
ing secretary, at clubs have withdrawn
from the General Federation since the Los
Angeles meeting. OT these, ninety-some
have disbanded. To offset this, however,
six state federations, five city federations,
one district federation and. 221 clubs have
come into the national body, which now
Include forty-five state federations em
bracing about 300.000 members; four district
federations averaging forty-two clubs eachf
six city federations of about 100 cluba each,
and two national societies, embracing 0,000
members.
If finances will only permit, through the
efforts and action of the Nebraska delega
tion at a meeting held In St. Louie during
the convention, the Nebraska federation
will afford some especially attractive fea
tures at Ita annual convention to be held at
Seward next October. First, Mre. Sarah
Piatt Decker of Denver, the General Feder
ation's new president, will be invited to
be the guest of the convention and next
Mrs. Nellie Kedxle Jones of Michigan will
be secured If possible, to speak on the
household economics program. Mrs. Jones
stands among the foremost teachers of
domestic science and her theory of supple
menting the teaching of the "Three Rs"
with that of the "Three lis," the heart to
will, the head to plan and the hands to
execute, has become generally popular.
At a special meeting of the directory of
the Omaha Woman's club the annual meet
ing announced for May 80 was postponed
until Monday, June (. The original date
of the meeting was May 28, but aa both the
retiring and Incoming officers are expected
to report at this meeting and several of
these. Including both presidents, were at
tending the St. Louis biennial, the meeting
was put off until their return.
The Iowa Federation paid more member
ship dues to the General Federation last
year than any other state organisation.
Ohio came second and Illinois third.
Invitation has been extended by the city
of Bt Paul to the General Federation of
Women's Clubs to hold its next biennial
convention In that city. The women's cluba.
the mayor, the Commercial club. Governor
VanSant and the Minnesota Federation of
Cluba united .in the Invitation, which was
preaented at the closing business seealon of
the Bt. Louis convention.
Two years ago an Invitation came from
Minneapolis, but it seemed advisable to
hold the meeting at St. Louis and that In
vitation was accepted accordingly. While
the invitation was not extended at the con
vention, It la understood that Baton will
extend a almilar courtesy, and In that case
It Is very probable that Its Invitation will
be accepted, as the far west and middle
west have had all the biennials and the
eastern women now feel that It Is their
turn. Tills Is oonceded, too, by club women
generally, particularly as more than half
of the present officers of the General Fed
eration are representatives of western
states. Five of the seven executive offloers
and four of the eight directors are western
women, eight of them residing west of the
Mississippi river. There are many who feel
that this distribution of offices Is bad policy
because the eastern clubs and federations
are lees dependent upon the west than the
western organisations are upon thm, and
while there is little anticipation of the
withdrawal of eastern elubs to any extent,
experience Indicates that a working- Interest
is a more binding: Interest and. that an
even distribution of office works a corre
sponding evenness of Interest. "

Trivial salt that Baa Oeewle the
Attention of Many Federal
Judaea.
There Is now tn the United States su
preme court tor the second time a suit
that has become famous because ot the
persistence of the parties concerned and
the small sum Involved. . Eleven years ago
a young man In the employ of the Wabash
Railroad company resigned, and his resig
nation was accepted. His month's wages
were not paid, and be brought suit for
them In the court of a St Louis Justice of
the peace. He was given Judgment for
$81.98. The company took an appeal to
the circuit court of the city, but was again
defeated. Then It carried the case to the
supreme court of the state of Missouri,
which affirmed' the decisions of the lower
courts. Then, rn the contention of the
company that the courts ot Missouri bad
failed to recognise the acts ot the courts
of a slater stats. It was taken to the su
preme court of the United States. Other
complications came in through attachment
proceedings by a creditor of the plaintiff
agalnat the road.
After the case had been on the docket of
the supreme court for a year a decision
was handed down affirming the decisions of
the Missouri courts. Then a Mil of Inter
pleader was put In by the company and a
demurrer to the bill of the attorney for
the plaintiff. For a second time the case
came before the St. Louis court of ap
peals, to still be decided against the com
pany. Another motion for a hearing1 in
the state supreme court was denied, but
an application to Justice Brewer to have
the case certified to the United States su
preme court was granted, and there It la
now for the second time awaiting adjudi
cation. This was the first case of a young
Missouri lawyer, and It has been the mak
ing, of him. Aa he bas won In every con
tention, the coats have fallen on the com
pany, which has thus far paid out over
$3,000 to save t&i-N.

Cheers.
The observance of Memorial day In
Omaha was almost universal, though the
city had no official demonstration. The day
was a delightful one and flags were at
half mast over publio building and a great
many of the buslnesa houses and schools,
At the postofflce building two handsome
new flags were unfurled at half mast, one
from the north and the other from the
south wing. Many of the business houses
where operations were suspended, espe
cially along the line of march, had their
display windows beautifully decorated with
flags and flowera, and from numerous prl
vate residences patriotic evidences were
manifest In the display of flags.
The streets were thronged early with
vlsltora from adjacent localities, to be tn
readiness for the parade of the afternoon,
The Grand Army button was strictly In
evidence and special Memorial day badges
were conspicuous on the breasts of hosts
of veterans.
During the forenoon the artillery firing
detail from Port Crook arrived and pro
ceeded to Forest Lawn cemetery, where
the national salute of twenty-one guns was
nred in memory of the day.
Third Battalion Participates.
The Third battalion of the Thirtieth
United States Infantry and the band of
that regiment from Port Crook, under
command of Captain Frank Wilcox, ar
rived In the city at noon to participate In
the ceremonies of the afternoon.
From the noon hour until the parade
started the streets were decked with the
several handsomely uniformed organisa
tions, military and civic, that were to par
ticipate In the parade and presented an
extremely martial appearance.
It was found necessary to chang-e the
order of the parade somewhat In order
that the United States troops and band
might occupy the place Immediately pre
ceding the Veterans' Drum Corps and the
Grand Army of the Republic. With thla
exception the parade moved In the order
Indicated by the published program.
Notwithstanding the long march out
lined, all of the Grand Army poets were
well represented in the parade and the
veterans kept excellent step to the musio
of the march, and particularly when the
Veterans' Drum Corps gave them the
cadence of the step.
Order of Parage.
The parade formed at Sixteenth and Cap

they represented that particular paper and

which claimed that the solicitor was given

tallies with the descrlptloned mentioned
soliciting furnished room advertisements
which brands the "high reputation" notice
as a rank fake.
The facts are, a Bee solicitor, who la

positively that there was not a word said
as to which paper he represented, and If

Beperts that Ouy C Barton bas resigned
from the Beard of Water OBanmleslotien
are confirmed by the chairman. James K.
Boyd, who says that Mr. Barton's realgna
tton was placed tn his bands about a week
ago. It will be acted upon by the board
at tbe regular monthly meeting Wednes

by the ether members of tbe beard, but
whether thegr will eo this at once baa not
been determined. Mr. Barton's aniiinr

WHERE HE GOT HIS START
How the Flnattna; Editor A ea I red a
Reputation as a Hervy
. Scrapper.
Several years ago Ben Wilde was known
throughout 'what was then the northwest
as "the fighting editor." I believe the true
story of how he gained his reputation as
a scrapper has never been told In print,
though he himself has often confessed In
private that he did not deserve any part
of that reputation.
It seems that there was a private detec
tive In St. Paul named Cleveland a gigan
tic man of whose strength and courage
there was no end of proof. He was known
throughout Minnesota, Wisconsin and the
Teritory of Dakota aa one ' who never
flinched from arresting the most desperate
criminal and who. In many a battle with
him, had shown the most marvelous physi
cal power.
Well, one day Cleveland, who was usu
ally well In control of his temper, became
so angered at a society reporter named
Hanson that he seised htm In a sort of
frentled bear hug and would have killed
him had not Wilde Interfered by bending
one of Cleveland's Angers so far back as
almost to break It.
Stung with the pain, Cleveland released
Hanson and made a rush at Wilde. Han
son immediately, ran out to the street,
shouting for assistance, leaving Wilde to
contend alone against, the Infuriated giant.
As Cleveland came-at Wilde the latter,
believing his end had come, struck at the
big man with all the power of desperation
and fortunately landed fairly on his cheek.
stopping his mad rush for an Instant. In
that Instant Wilde scooted for the back
door, leaped down the four or five steps.
ran up the alley and. finding that he was
not pursued, soon gained courage to go
around to the . front door of the office.
There he found a great crowd that Han
son's cries had- assembled.
Wilde, feeling pretty secure In euch an
assembly, stepped to the glass door and
looked inside. There eat Cleveland at a
table, with a handkerchief to his cheek,
sopping up . the blood that flowed from a
gash made by Wilde's ring. '
Just then a reporter for the Evening Dis
patch, which was soon to go to press, came
running across the street and asked Wilde
what had happened.
"Ask Hanson," said Wilde. ,
Hanson knew only that he had left Wilde
alone with Cleveland.
"Very well," said Wilde; "ask Cleve
land."
So the Dispatch reporter went In and
asked the big man.'
"Young Wilde hit me a beautiful blow,"
was all the detective would say.
So, the Dlspntch thai day had a story
of how Ben Wilde, a young fellow weigh
ing 140 pounds, had taken Hanson's fight
off his hands, whipped the gigantic Cleve
land to a finish and calmly walked out at
the front door to see what the world
thought about It.
Cleveland, who was heartily ashamed of
having lost his temper, was really grateful
to Wilde for preventing him from killing
Hanson; so he' never denied the story, but
let Wilde have and enjoy his undisputed
reputation as 4 wonderful fighter. Brook

REUNION IN OLD IRELAND

Mrs. Lynch Tlslts Her Mother, Who
is Ninety-One, In Conaty Clare,
the Town of Bally
ana na n
After spending more than a year visiting
every country on the globe with the ex
ception of China, Michael Lynch, a young
Omaha blacksmith, and brother to City
Oas Inspector John C. Lynch, met his
mother In the little town of Ballyvaughan,
Couhty Clare, Ireland. Mrs. Lynch did
not know her son-was to meet her and
the reunion was filled with happy surprise.
She was on a visit to her mother, who
Is more than 91 years old. but still hale
and hearty.
Mrs. Lynch, who lives at 1050 South
Twenty-second street, returned from her
trip to the "Ould Sod" Sunday morning, ac
companied by the globe-trotting eon, and
her 12-year-old aon, Philip, who was with
her on the journey. She was gone three
months and returned happy In the thought
that she had been able to pay last respects
to her mother and view the scenes of her
childhood again. She, herself, la 49 years
old. .
Michael Lynch Is but 20 years old and had
established himself In the blacksmith busi
ness , in Omaha after learning the trade.
The wandering fever, however, seized him
a year ago last March and he aet out to
see the world. His family heard from him
only occasionally, once from Chile and next
from Scotland.
Beats Hie Mother There.
It was Just after Mrs. Lynch had started
for the old country when the gas In
spector heard from Michael in Scotland.
He wrote to him Immediately about his
mother's trip to County Clare and the lad
succeeded In beating her to Ballyvaughan.
The Lynches brought back with them a
flne collection of Irish curios and mementos,
among them telng a flne blackthorn stick,
which has been presented to Mayor Moores.
The stick was prepared by an old Irishman
for three drams of wine. They say the
highest wages paid to laborers In Ireland Is
equivalent to only tl.26 a week. The
ancient Celtic habit of ever and anon tap,
ping your neighbor on the head with your
stick Just to show hlra that you love him
still prevails with pristine vigor and fresh
ness in County Clare, where young Michael
found he had a, string of cousins big
