Featares of the Reception.
Across the hall tbe dining room had been
converted Into a most attractive reception
room by a clever employment of the as
sociation colors, green and white. Ropes
of Christmas greens and yards of whits
bunting wound the posts or hung In fes
toons, while a scattering of rugs and
chairs contributed an Inviting feature.
Just Inside the door the members of tha
board, together with the secretaries, re
ceived, while beyond three handsome
trlmrned tables afforded refreshments of
coffee, caka and confections. Presiding
here were: Mrs. Frank Colpetxer and Mrs.
B. F. Crummer. At another, Mrs. O. W.
Wattles and Mrs. Charles Johannes, and
at the third Mra Frank Haller, Mrs. J. B.
Berry, Mrs. Euclid Martin and Mrs. H. S.
Jaynes, and assisting them were a score
cf young women. In another corner a
stringed orchestra played throughout the
evening.
In no department was the fact that the
young women have outgrown their quar
ters more evident than In the gymnasium,
where a game of basket ball was played.
The few chairs of which the limited floor
space admitted were crowded, and In the
room adjoining the guests stood on chairs
or beocI.eSjto watch the game through the
double (Jours. Another attractive feature,
and one peculiarly Illustrative of the In
genuity of determined women, waa a poster
show, .displayed In the audience room. By
a series of clever posters made from large
advertising pictures or painted, drawn or
sketched by some of the members, each of
the several departments of educational
work or committee Illustrated its work
and Its aim, but Invariably concluded with
the need of a new building or some clever
suggN'Um as to how the orfeerver might
help thvut secure It.
EVEMSO FOH. THE YOISO MEX
Association Rooms Thronged by Mem
bers suid Visitors,
Members of the Toung Men s Christian
association outdid themselves last evening
at tbelr annu .' New Year's reception to
the citizens of Omaha. On entering the
building one was at oncj struck by the
simple splendor of the decorations. The
stairway was covered with small Christ
mas trees on each side of the wall and
strings of evergreens were hung in fes
toons from post to poet and along the
walls. On reaching the main floor the
visitor was greeted by the reception com
mittee, composed of the Board of Directors.
From there the visitor passed to the game
room, where rnusla was furnished by
Knock' orchestra. In this room Waa
the ec'ucatlor.Al exhibit, showing the
work done by the students of the Toung
Men's Christian association night school.
In this exhibit were to be seen a few re
markably fine drawings and color sketches;
one especially that attracted considerable
attention was a charcoal sketch of a wo
man's head.
In the game room a typical college cory
corner was ta be found. This room was
festooned and the occupants protected from
the too close ' observance by a multitude
of college pennants and flags. Refresh
ments were served in the reading room.
In the parlor was the art . exhibit.
Raphael's "Madonna Delia Pedla," a copy
of the original painting and frame, was
loaned for the occasion by H. P. Whit
more. There .'were also several originals
by Howard Chandler Christy, and a few
by his pupil. Miss Marian Reed, loaned
by Mathews. The Bennett company
loaned several, water colors by Hugo
Fisher, W. 8. Russell and others. A. Hospe
Company also loaned a collection of Inter
esting art subjects.
A basket ball game was played in the
gymnasium between the High School
alumni and the Young Men's Christian as
sociation first team, resulting In a victory
for the Young Men's Christian association
team. The score waa "i to U. A number
of special gymnastic stunts were gone
thVough by some of the Young Men's
Christian association young men. The best
of these stunts was the bar. work shown
by Out Bettach and Charles Jennings,
whose work was of a high class. The fea
ture of the evening In this line and the
one that drew the aretest applause was
the hand balancing done by Fred Hurley
Mr. Hurley's work was of very high class.
It Is estimated thst about 2.V9 persons
were present at the reception between the
hours of 7 and 10 p. m.
FIRE AT THE HAUrTED HOUSE
Third of Isjeeadlarr Origin at Old
Dwelling with a Roman! le
lllatnry.
A two-story dwelling structure, facing
the alley between Dodge, and Capitol ave
nue, and Twenty. first and Twenty-second
strerts, and known In the community as the
"haunted house," was the scene of another
incendiary fire at o'clock last evening.
The fire was discovered In time to pre
vent any serious damage to the building.
The blaze originated in a corner near one
of the tntrancea on the ground floor. Miss
Caroline Johnson Is the present owner of
the house.
The story of the building, as told by the
neighbors, is that a number of years ago
Mrs. Johnson, then a widow, died In the
house, leaving two daughters, who locked
and tialled the building up and did not take
kindly to the Idea of occupying the house
any lonr:r. When the firemen broke the
door open last evening and made their way
Into the buiidlng, they found the kitchen
table set In a manner that Indicated the
eating of a recent meal, although It la
said the meal was ate years ago on the re
turn of some of the mourners from the
funeral. The doorstep of the building has
for years beep the rendezvous for the small
boys of the neighborhood. Many weird
tales of spooks and goblins and eus and
other creatures of the Juvenile mind have
been Incubated on the doorstep, until riot
a few really believe the place Inhabited by
tbe denlsens of another world. When Chief
Baiter was about to enter last evening two
small boys held their hands with fear and
trembling and warned the chief to have
a care lest some spook would blow the
light out of hi lantern, but the chief went
boldly in and heeded not the advice of his
young friends. "Gee, wlsht I was a fire
man," remarked one of the boys when the
chief emerged from the house whole and as
one person.
The building has been fired three times In
the last few years.
SOLDIER HOME FROM THE WAR

fever in one of the military hospitals at
Manila, John E. Stringer of Company D,

If he could withstand any ordinary changes
of climate that a military life might sub

however, as out of the ordinary.
"Tropical climates are all right to dream
about." he said, "but me for the land of

I thought I was a pretty husky lad and
that I could stand anything, but I was

President Christie accepted the honor
placed on him with a neat little speech, re

his colleagues and expressing his opinion
that 1t Is the best policy In the long run to

our schools In making honorable men and
women cannot be estimated In dollars and
cents." said President Christie, After

presidency, the preference being divided be
tween Members Detweller, McCague and
Rioe until the sixth ballot, when Member

then made unanimous. Vice President-elect
Detweller then injected a little humor into
the proceedings by saying the day had
been fraught with great happenings. In that
Port Arthur had fallen and he had been
elected vice president.
After the resignation of H. L. KreJder
had been accepted the roll was called and
every member responded with the name of
David Cole as candidate for the vacancy.

CHARTER -REVISION PLANS
Committee Decides to Cat Oat the
Advisory Board from City's
Consfltatloa.
After a vast amount . of talk yesterday
afternoon the charter revision contmittee
decided to abolish the Advisory board and
arranged for a committee to investigate
fhe expediency of Increasing councilmen's
salaries and whether the number should be
enlarged or diminished. A resolution was
put before the house to cut out tl.e Board
of Public Works altogether and have the
city engineer replace It hut certain mem
bers were afraid the action would have a
"political tinge" and a vote on the matter
was postponed.
Almost every section of the charter re
ceived some gratuitous advice, a4l eyes
seemingly being fixed on the point of econ
omy regardless of efficiency.
It was announced that the "committee of
safety," which grew out of the Thomao
bomb Incident, would send a representation
of three on the revision committee and
that the Commercial club also would ap
point delegates.

at the east end of the room were threo
arches formed with palms.. The back

and flowers. Beautifully draped American
flags were stretched along the walls the
entire length of the hall, and at one end

candelabra and cut flowers. Illuminated
