Ths third annual Riffling of the feflpr
atd clubs of tha Second dlctiiot of th
Nebraska Federation of Woipen's i'lubs,
held yesterday at Dlnlr, , 'from an edu
cational and every other standpoint, one
of the most Kurcfflfful women's meeting
that has been held. In the state slnre the
organisation of tlii federation. Of the
twelve federated' and three unfedornted
clubs In the district only four the Omaha
Woman's rlub, Muslgma Woman's club,
Cellevue Woman's club and the Ulalr Mon
day Afternoon rlub were represented.
Omaha sent the largest delegation, which
Included: Mmrs. M. J. Monnette, Kdward
Johnson, C. 8. Glover, Draper Smith, W.
H. Wilbur. R. V. Elliott, W. U. Taylor,
Frank 1 teller, Cadet Taylor, J. Douglas,
A. L. eheels, Moorheud, Chandler,- F. R.
Straight and J.. O. Heller. Mrs. H. M.
Iiushncll of Lincoln, president of the Ne
braska Federation, was the guest of the
meeting. Owing to the early arrival of the
train the visiting women were served
breakfast In the homes of their hostesses,
but the drive about the city planned for
the afternoon had to be abandoned because
of the rain.
Proceedings of the Morning;.
The convention was held In the First
Methodist church, Mrs. M. J. Monnette
presiding. Mrs. 11. H. Hnhn, president of
the Blair club, welcomed the visiting
women and Mr. Frank Heller of Omaha
responded. In her address Mrs. M. J.
Monnette, district vice president, ably set
forth the purpose, alms and work of
women's clubs.
"It Is not a fnd, but part of the world's
great work," she said. "Tho club Is to
women the great world education that
business contact is to men. It has broken
down sectarianism among church women
and taught a good fellowship that has
broadened and strengthened ' us all. It
keeps women young by stimulating an In
terest In things beyond self."
. New clubs were reported at Arlington
and Bellevue. Reports of the clubs came
next, written reports being sent by. most
of the clubs unable to send representa
tives. The new Juvenile court law was presented
In brief and explained by County Judge
Marshall. While he approved the law, he
said that Washington county had during
his three years In that office had little If
any need of It; that while In a few oases
It had been necessary for the court to ap
point guardians for children, there had
been no cases of Juveniles being brought
up as offenders. He admitted that the
fenders had, perhaps, prevented their pros
ecution. The morning program was Interspersed
with muslo by Prof. Johnson of Blair and
Mrs. A. L. Sheets of Omaha.
In the Afternoon.
Mrs. C. 8. Glover opened the afternoon
session with a talk on "Rome of the Causes
of Prejudice Against Women's Clubs." She
pointed out that the aggressive woman was
known long before cluljs were ever heard
of and that, because she had come Into
the club, too, she was too often held up
as a sample by which all club women were
Judged.
"The Profession of Home Making" was
the subject of an able paper by Mrs. W.
H. Wilbur. Taking a profession a an oc
cupation that Involves a liberal training,
she pointed nut many places wherein the
education of girls, though supposedly
broad, still failed to ' Include adequate
preparation for their highest profession,
that of being a homemaker, a companion
able wife and mother. "Why not know
aomethlng about what to do for children
In case of accident, when a doctor Is un
available? I .earn to understand base bnll
With your boys. It pays enough better In
the end than teas and recitations. Don't
let l yourself become a drudge and don't
make sacrifices that "will belittle you In
the eyes of your husband and children,"
were some of the bits of advice she gave.
Old llome and the New.'
Mrs. Frank Heller of Omaha talked of
"Old. Homes and New." "Necessity gave
to the old home many occupations for the
children that was most valuable train
ing," she said, "and the women of today
should recognise the value of these things
and, though the necessity Is now removed,
continue them in the homes for the bene
fit and education of tha children. Let
your girls come Into the kitchen and every
place else and do things with you. Do
things for the sake of showing your chil
dren how, whether It Is necessary or not."
A paper on "The Evolution Of Education
During the Nineteenth Century" was read
by Superintendent W. M. Davidson of the
Omaha schools. The presentation of so
scholarly an essay proved Mr. Davidson's
recognition and appreciation of the work
of the Woman's club. A reading by Miss
Palmer, music by the Mystic Male quartet
and songs by Miss Oladya Chandler of
Omaha concluded the program. A social
hour followed in the Masonic lodge rooms.

DICK LITTLE HOME FROM WAR
Chlcaa-o Newspaper Man Who Was
. Captnred Twice Finally Retarna
to America.
George Ade, the humorist, "Dick" Little,
the well known war correspondent from
Chicago, who was captured by the Rus
sians at New Chwnng- and the Japanese at
Mukden, nnd Captain W. R. Judson, until
recently one of the United States military
attaches with the Russian army In Man
churia, were passengers arriving yesterday
afternoon on the belated Union Pacific
overland limited train No. 2, which ar
rived at the Union station at 2:30 p. . m
Messrs. Ade and Little left at 2:66 over tha
Milwaukee for Chicago. Captain Judson
remained in Omaha a few hours and pro
ceeded to St. Louis. The party arrived
at San Francisco lHst Thursday on the
Korea and reached the scene of the land
slide on the Union Pacific, near the Ed son
tunnel, Sunday morning.
Richard II. Little, or "Dlok," as he Is bet
ter known by his associates, was sent by
the Chicago News to the seat of the war
as a special correspondent. He was with
the Japanese army at New Chwang when
the mikado's troops were captured there,
nnd was taken with the Russian force's.
At Mukden, when General Kouropatkin's
army retreated, Little was captured back
by the Japanese and held at Toklo over
a month. With Little at the time of the
capture were Captain W. R. Judson, who
arrived here yesterday; Colonel Harvard of
the United States army medical depart
ment. Captain AyerS of the British army,
J. McCullough, a war correspondent, M,
Nadau, a French newspaper man , and
Baron Krelglsey.
Mr. Little maintains he 1b none the
worse for wear In being twice a prisoner
of war. He says he was treated well nnd
kindly by both belligerants, particularly
by the Russians, which has been the re
port of others going through the same ex
perienoe.
"And so far as getting the accounts of
conflicts was concerned, the Japanese
woull He to us until the cows went to
roost," said Mr. Little. "They kept us at
Toklo until 1 nearly ate the mikado out
of house and home and then they ordered
me out on the first steamer."
As to the number of soldiers Kouropat
kin had at Mukden. Mr. Little said he
believed he had 400.000. Asked what both
ered the general, the correspondent said the
Russian leader was handlcappM. as the
Japanese had nearly 500,000.
George Ade left New York City last Jan
uary on s pleasure trip and to strengthen
his failing appetite. He visited the Ber
mudas. West Indies and sailed on the
Korea for Japan and China, returning on
tne same steamer mm

When the Board of Fire and Police Com
missioners met In the council chamber Inst
night a delegation from the South Omaha
Ministerial assnrlaton presented a request
for Sunday closng of salocns. T. C. Marsh,
secretary of the loral Tcung Men's Chris
tian association, presented the request and
spoke briefly. Rev. Andrew Rnnwlck, pas
tor of the United Presbyttrlan church, rep
resented the association and requested that
something be done toward keeping the sa-
oons closed, et least during churrh service
ours. Rev. Renwlck complimented the
bonrd on he reforms It had accomplished
and then asked that the board go a little
further. "If It Is not deemed wise at this
time to keep the saloons closed all day on
Sunday the ministers of South Omaha
would like to see places where liquor Is
old closed during the hours services are
being held."
Mr. Nolan, speaking for. the board, said
that he feared that the business men might
object to such action, and that the closing
of Raloons on Sunday would tend to send
people elsewhrre on Sundays. He also
stated that If the board - attempted to
strictly enforce the Sunday closing law
nfluence might be brought to bear on the
next leglsl-iture with the resnlt that the
bonrd might be wiped out of existence.
We are anxious," snid Mr. Nolan, "to m
ust as far as public sentiment will support
us." The delegation ten wun ine unu.r-
standlng that th board would carefully
consider the petition at some later date.
Officer Jacob Small was granted a ten
days' leave of absence, to commence on
May 1.
Secretary Bergqulst reported that a com
mittee from the board and from the coun
cil visited several fire engine houses In
Omaha yesterday for the purpose of getting
on Idea of What Is wanted In the shape or
a building for fire department headquarters
here. The board recommended to the coun
cil that the engine house at Twenty-seventh
nnd Jones streets, Omaha, would bo
about the right thing. It was further rec
ommended that a Are hall to cost about
$15,000 be built at Twenty-fifth and L streets

Mayor Considering; Ordinance.
Monday night the city council passed an
ordinance prohibiting expectorating on the
sidewalks, In, public places and In street
cars. Mayor Koutsky has not signed the
ordlqance and very likely he will not. In
talking about this ordinance yesterday the
major said that he cannot see any neces
sity for such an ordinance at this time,
Very few idle men are to De round on
the streets now," said the mayor, "and Jf
I should sign the ordinance it would merely
mean that 1 Would be called upon day and
night to remit the fine. There t no neces
sity for such an ordinance at this time,
will take the matter under considera
tion." This ordinance was Introduced by
Councilman Klewlt and was passed without
any opposition. 1

"The Mikado."
There ought to be a large and enthusi
astic audience at the Boyd tonight to wit
ness "The Mikado," offered by tho Omaha
Guards for the benefit of their armory fund
with the Omaha Operatic association under
the direction of W. H. Kinross In the cast
and chorus. The latter will number about
seventy voices. The rehearsals have been
frequent, long and arduous and an excep
tional degree of proficiency has been at
tained which will place the present pro
duction on a par with the best professional
renditions of the opera ever given In
Omaha. Apart , from the positive" attrac
tion of the bill and the Interest which al
ways centers upon home talent produc
tions, the object of the entertainment
ought to commend Itself to all. The Omaha
Guards, composed of our very best young
men. Is always ready for duty and willing
to assist. In all public ceremonials without
compensation. Their armory sadly needs
refurnishing, which, with the meagre as
sistance rendered by the state, is beyond
their present finances and Is at present Im
possible. The Bee hopes the company will
realise more than enough for this purpose.

Nervoas Prostration, Drought on by
Overwork and Dread ot Being
Thrown Ont of Employ
meat Proves Fatal.
Three of her friends at the city hall say
that the sudden death of Miss Gertrude
Smith, stenographer In the city treasurer's
office, early Tuesday morning, was 'caused
by worry for fear she would lose her
position through the merger of the city
and county treasury departments under
the new charter. Miss Smith died about 4
o'clock from a hemorrhage of tb brain.
Induced by nervous prostration and a worn
out condition. She worked at the city
hall up to Friday night, when she In
formed City Treasurer Hennlngs that she
was feeling badly and wished to take a
vacation., of several days over Easter and
visit her family at Rrownvllle, Neb. Noth
ing more was heard from her at the office
until the announcement of her death.
Miss Smith helped to support her family,
which consisted of her father, who Is a
carpenter, her Invalid mother, and a sister
named Grace. She had lived and workejj
in Omaha for about seven years, having
been employed by the Qermanla Life In
surance company and In the offices of an
attorney before securing her place In the
treasurer's office about two years ago.
With the first money saved from her
Wages from the city. Miss Smith bought
a wheeled chair for her mother, who has
been la bad health and helpless for years.
Retrenchment Talk 'Worried Her.
The confidants of Miss Smith at the city
hall declare that when there was talk of
retrenchment and cutting down the force
In the treasurer's office previous to the
making of the last annual levy for taxes,
that Miss Smith whs much worried and
burst Into tears while telling her fear that
she might lose her position. Later, when
the charter bill providing for the doing
Away with the city treasury department
was dlscusred and Introduced, she actel
the same way. The matter weighed on
her mind until the bill became a law, and
despite the belief of Treasurer Hennlngs
and others that arrangements for the
merger were defective and that It could
not take place, she grieved herself almost.
Into a state of collapse, her friends say.
Recently Miss Smith was engaged In copy
ing the charter for Mr. Hennlngs, and
she had Just finished it to the merger
provision when she asked for a vacation.
She was a woman of very nervous temper
ament and no great physical strength.
Worry and Overwork.
C. W. Miller, 3418 Lafayette avenue, at
whose homo Miss Smith resided during
most of her residence in Omaha, said:
"Miss Smith was attended by Dr. W. O,
Henry, who said that she was suffering
from nervous prostration, due to overwork
and worry, and that she should have been
placed In a hospital a month ago. He
advised that she could not safely return
to work for a long time. No one had
any dea that her condition was as dan
gerous as it was until about 10 o'clock
Monday night when she began to sink
rapidly. About midnight she became un
ftconsclous and remained so until she passed
away. Miss Smith was a woman whose
devotion to her family made her life a
beautiful one. Her relatives at Brown
vllle have been Informed, but the funeral
arrangements have not been made."
