DENTAL COLLEGE GRADUATES
Class of Thirty-Three Sent Oat from the
Omaha School.
BANQUET TURNS INTO A REUNION
Alumni, Faculty . anil t nderclassmen
I'nlte with Guests In a Most
Enjoyable Rtrnlng at
the Table.
Twenty-two young men and one young
woman received degrees of doctor of den
tal surgery and the accompany diplomas
from President Abner N. Nason of the
Omaha Dental college at Boyd's theater
yesterday afternoon. The commencement
exercises were simple but full of dignity
and the spirit of professional life. It was
the tenth commencement of the flourish
ing Omaha school and was attended by a
large number of friends and relatives of
the graduates. The members of the class
wore caps and gowns and were the re
cipients of many flowers and other gifts,
which were handed to them on the stage,
Besides the class on the stage were the
members of the faculty and the trustees
of the college, also capped and gowned.
Rev. Robert H. Yost of St. Mary's Ave
nue Congregational church made the ad
dress, holding up Wendell Phillips as a
model for the doctors. "
Truth the Great Need.
"I take this man," said Rev. Yost, "be
cause ho so well represents the Idea that
I wish to Impress upon you the spirit of
truthfulness of character. I do not know
as there Is anything that needs to be
pushed to the front more today than vig
orous, absolute truthfulness. It Is the
duty of professional men to represent this
kind of character. I know little of your
line of work, except that I have never
found a calling In the world that does
not afford an opportunity to do more or
less sham work. If your life is to be
worth remembering or mentioning after
y-ou are gone It will be because you put
sham work out and truth and courage and
fair dealing Into It. The tendency towards
dealing in sham goods, In veneers of va
rious kinds, In articles that are not alto
gether what they seem Is much stronger
In the present day than It should be. But
the honest things you put Into your life
are the only ones that will remain the
only ones that will return satisfaction to
you. You will encounter, your full share
of temptations and discouragements, but
If I were to give you a recipe for success
I should tell you to find out the hardest
thing that presents itself first and do It.
Character that is worth everything else In
the world Is that which grows out of ob
stacles. Don't fear work, hindrances and
obstacles. Show that you are of the stuff
that knows no quitting."
List of the Unas.
The stage was tastefully decorated with
flowers for the occasion and the theater
orchestra rendered appropriate music. Dr.
Edwin Hart Jenks of the First Presbyte
rian church made the invocation and the

LEWIS A. CROSSETT, I ncorporatad,
North Ablngton, Mass.
had found dentists very effective, par
ticularly In the case of a certain Northern
Indiana toothache, which ceased suddenly
after a seven-mile walk, on the very thresh
old of tho doctor's office. He said that
the first university was the world's con
ditions and that this state of affairs as a
training school for men had continued up
to this very day. He praised the Omaha
Dental college and said that It Is one of
those Institutions that are enabled to put
an actual stimulus in the work It per
forms because It fits Its students directly
to earn their livings.
Sandy F. Woodbrldge, city editor of the
World-Herald, In lieu of a toast on "The
Professions," told a funny story regarding
grand opera, the tiling of teeth and a
certain similarity on the nerves.
Dr. II. E. King hail some pointed things
to say regarding the new graduate, admit
ting that he, as well us some of tho
others present, hud still an Immense
amount to leurn.
To De a, Han.
"We all have our own place In life,"
said Dr. Edwin Hart Jenks. "It does not
make any difference what that place is,
but it makes a good deal of difference how
we fill that place. You young men have
now some definite thing to do. You are
dentists. That is the one thing that you
have to do above all others. I am satls
lled that It is a general law that to suc
ceed anywhere you must have singleness
of purpose. However, the real vocation in
life is to pluy the part of a man and play
It well."
Dr. W. N. Dorward's subject was "The
Board of Dental Examiners," but he
handled a number of others In his talk. He
said among other things that the state
board is powerless to accomplish anything
without the co-operation of every reputable
dentist und that It Is their duty to prop
erly report irregular practitioners; thut only
by doing this thing and working In har
mony with the authorities could the stand
ard of the profession be maintained and
the public protected. He also handed the
young doctors a bit of plain speech re
garding the littleness of their real knowl
edge. U. W. Williams spoke for the class of
1106, alternating between shafts of satire
ui wie gruuuutes and faculty and a general
bouquet of praise and compliments all
around. Dr. L G. Van Slyke talked on be
hull of the alumni, of class ties and sen
timent and the hard race that lay before
the new doctors. He urged more gather
ings and a closer cementing of the pro
fession. J. E. Davis spoke for the class
I of 1!X7 and told a few funny ones that got
...in uigKt-Bi iihuu vi me evening.
For the Faculty.
Dean Hunt mude the lust response on
behalf of the faculty. He declared it would
not be long before the college alumni
would have difficulty In getting a banquet
room in Omaha large enough to hold It.
Ho. said tho college would always be
"home" for its children and he urged
them to come back often and stay long,
dwelling upon the Importance of reunions
and the necessity of Interest in the school
by the old graduates. He went back to
his own college days and dealt for a time
In happy reminiscence and then painted a
bright picture of the prospect of the
Omaha Dental college.
The Alumni association elected the fol
lowing officers: President, G. U Van
Slyko of South Omaha; vice president,
Herbert E. King of Fremont; seoond vice
president, L, E. Gurney of Council Bluffs;
secretary, J. C. Soakup of Omaha; treas
urer, A. R. Ivers of Crawford, Neb. It
was voted to assess small dues to each mem
ber und a vote of tuauka was tenederd to
Dr. E. H. Bruening, the retiring secretary.

Between fifty and sixty members of the
North Sixteenth Street Improvement club
met in the dining room at the Midland
hotel lust night to talk over street Im
provement matters In that district. A
number of city officials were present by
invitation and the proceedings were of the
liveliest Interest. The club which
started less than two months ago with a
membership of twenty, now has nearly 300

ing. Chairman Young of' the building and
improvement committee submitted a brief
report regarding tho work of that com
mittee, giving encouraging assurances of
the early erection of a three-story brick
business block on Sixteenth street not far
from the Midland hotel to take the place
of some dilapidated structures, and hope
ful prospects of ' other buildings in the
near future. The building spirit was In
the air and the committee felt assurod
that It would have some good things to
report at the next meeting in the building
line.
Jefferson Square's Condition.
Mr. Swift of the park committee made
a verbal report in reference to Jefferson
Square and suggested a number of im
provements. These contemplate the plant
ing of flower beds, the trimming of the
trees and shrubbery and the procuring of
new seats and the fastening down of the
seats and benches already In the park to
prevent their removal; also that the seats
should be painted. He thought that a
light should be placed In the center of tho
park and that a policeman should be
stationed there and the park given the
same police protection that Is guaranteed
to Hanscom park.
Condemnation of a number of frame
buildings Is asked of the city council and
building inspector and that condemnation
should mean their removal or repair.

certed movement will be undertaken to
restrict those obstructions.
More LiKhts Wanted.
Mr. Crane of the light committee urged
that the street should be given more light.
He urged- that at least six additional lights
should be placed on the streets from Dodge
to Nicholas street.
City Engineer Rosewater talked briefly
upon tho need of improvements along the
street and expressed himself as In hearty
accord with the efforts of the club.
Building Inspector vlthnell concurred In
the proposition for the condemnation of
certain structures along the street and
promised to aid tho club In bringing pro
ceedings about. Ho asked the backing of
tho club.
City Electrician Mlchaelson strongly fa
vored more street lights for North Six

largest taxpaying districts should have
Improvements In accord with their tax con
tributions for city Improvements.
Councilmen Nicholson and Dyball as
sured the club that their sympathies and
Interests were with the district, and that
they would do all in their power to bring
ubout the requested Improvements.
A vote of thanks was tendered the visit

Platform at Ninth and Jackson.
MAN EVIDENTLY DIED MONTHS AGO
Xothina: on Corpse to Indicate Name,
but He Is Recalled as Looking;
for Work In Omaha
Last Fall.
The body of a innn was found Friday
morning under a platform at the building
of tlu Omaha Implement and Transfer
company, Ninth and Jackson streets. Threo
employes of the company, A. "i. Strayer,
David Brock and Fred Hartman, were
working on the platform and decided to
investigate an unpleasant odor wnich they
had noticed all the duy previous. In a
dark corner under the platform they found
the body lying. Without disturbing it they
notified tho toroner and police officers.
When tho body was taken out it was
found to be in an advanced stage of
decomposition, having lain there perhaps
several months. It was evidently cold
weather wh-n the man crawled Into the
hole, for his feet were thickly wrapped
in gunny sacks. Ho had taken off his
coat and spread It over his breast as a
covering.
Nothing was found In the man's pockets,
but two memorandum books, accounts In
which showed him to be a bricklayer. On
the front page of one of the books the name
of E. Woodard, 3227 Franklin street, was
found. Investigation proved this person to
be N. E. Woodard, who lives now at Thirty
third and California streets. He remem
bered that a man answering the description
of the dead man came to him last fall
and asked him for work. He could not
remember the stranger's name, but said he
came from near Oakland, la. This agrees
with entries In the man's book, showing
that he had been In Oakland. In addition,
there was the name of John Spalta, Oak
land. John Etrlnger was the name found
on a card In one of the books.
The body was taken to the coroner's
office and an Investigation was begun for
the purpose of learning the man'B Identity.

50 and fiO years of age, and 5 feet 7 Inches
In height. He hnd gray hair and mustache,
