Ramie-Fibre Health Underwear. It Is produced from the. wonderful Ramie plant growing In Asia, which fiber haa In itself combined all the good qualities of silk wool, linen and cotton, but nono of their bad ones. The Ramie texture Is very porous and supple and penetratablo to the air. The person wearing Ramie Tnderclothlng never feels chilly or damp after perspira tion. Unlike any other fibre, Ramie pos sesses great solidity, because of this our underclothing texture allows space between the skin and outer garments for circulation of air, for ventilation, evaporation and ra diation, giving therefore the greateast amount of comfort and protection to health at any season of the year.

"AS YOU LIKEJT AT THE PARK AI Fresco Production of the Shakes - perean Comedy Promises Much for rieasore. The novel event of the week la the open air production of "As Tou L4ke It," under the direction of Miss IJlllan fitch, at Hanscom park, on Thursday evening. In this sprightly comedy Shakespeare's Idea seems to have been to preserve a breexy sylvan atmosphere throughout. Even the first scenes, before we come to the world famed Forest of Arden are out-of-doors Oliver's orchard and a lawn before the duke's palace. Once we enter the Forest of Arden we are In a land of dancing leaves and glinting sunshine. Thla play, transplanted to the stage of a theater, loses much of this at mosphere, and so It has had Ha most suc cessful presentations out-of-doors. A year or two ago the Ben Greet company came from England to give it so, and some of the eastern colleges have made it a fea ture of commencement, but this is the first time Omaha has had an opportunity o see Rosalind and Orlandp.on the green un or me r-orest or Araen witn tne blue sky overhead. The audience will be seated on the slope at the south end of Hanscom park, about ,600 chairs and cushions being provided for that purpose. The musical features will prove particularly Interesting. Besides Miss Allen's orchestra of thirty, the forest music will be furnished by the foresters' utes. Mr. Jessen, who plays Amiens, will sing the "As You Like It" songs which Mr. Kelly has recently sot to music. The affair promises to be a social event as well, the patronesses being the leaders of Omaha's social set, and the debutantes will lend their graceful presence as the attendants of Hymen. The sale of seats has been most satisfactory and should yield A liberal sum to the public play grouads.

McCullough' addressed a deeply Interested audience at Crelghton hall Wednesday evening on "Collective Bargaining and the Joint Agreement." The paper presented wan, as Mr. Hichnrd 1 Metcalfe, the chairman, said at Its con clusion, "Worthy to be placed In the hands of every business mnn and every worklngman In Omahn. and It should be." Colonel McCullough laid down the propo sition that individual action In wage bar gaining Is governed by necessity, not by ability or equity "The present discussion of the open shop is not a new thing," he s(dd. "It has been presented In one form or another since the world began," and on this line of thought he traced man's rise In Industrial power to the arrival of steam-driven machinery and the develop ment of the present doy conditions, when the Independent workman saw himself re duced from the condition of a possible moster workman to a mere worker for wages all his life; where, a doxen men with machines do the work it formerly took a whole county the same time to do by hand. The condition of Independence had given way to one of Interdependence. 'Out of this development the trade union as we know It was born, to counteract conditions which were worse than slavery." The. legal effort against the trade union In Kngland up to the first quarter of the nineteenth century and the decisions of courts In this country holding unions to be conspiracies were referred to, as well as the modern application of the Injunction. Extreme caution has kept the unions be hind the general movement of the world, but they have always stuck to the de mand for an Increasing share of the product of their labor. They have, how ever, had the saving grace to adjust them selves to conditions and have labored to make a success with the materials at hand until they could get better. Authorities Support I'nlon. The report of the Anthracite Coal Strike Arbitration committee was used with sharp effect, especially some very pertinent points which tho Parryltes have wilfully over looked. The part of the report which Colonel McCullough quoted pays high tribute to the trade union as representing and giving life to tho community of in terest which was lost when personal con tact between employer and employed be came no longer possible In the old sense. As pointed out by the men who drew up that report, the right of the trade union to exist Is too thoroughly well founded to be any longer open to argument. The senlal of this contention must Inevitably force the radicals and unsafe men to the front. The Investigations and conclusions of such men as Walter Wyckoff of Cornell, Dr. Ross of Nebraska university. Dr. Urooks of Boston and other noted stu dents of economics were pithily presented In support of trade union merit as against ancient and obsolete theories. All of these eminent gentlemen, all noted economists, were quoted literally as on record that without the labor union the worker must be at a very great disadvantage as a bar gainer. Their argument for the protec tion given the ordinary, average man by the trade union was also dwelt on, and the fact-emphasized that If the open shop will break up unions then they are against It. Colonel McCullough was strong In his presentation of the thought that the unions must be strong In order to be useful, but also because they carry the responsibility to make their membership live up to con tracts entered Into. Their power to enforce their wage scale Is underlying, undeniable strength for the competing manufacturers, who are thus assured that they are paying all alike for the same work and have a stable basis to figure from. They are a re straining influence to protect the employer as well as the men. Dansrer In Open Shop. Warning against the lnsldlousness of the open shop proposition Colonel McCullough said: "The open shop and Individual bar gaining will tend to lower wages Just as surely as water runs down hill. The in auguration of such a condition would dan gerously weaken or disrupt the unions. The nonunion man Is always and everywhere the greatest danger to the wage scale. He Is willing to start in at any wage, thus enabling the employer to play him against the minimum and bother tho fairly paid men to death. "Those who oppose the closed shop as antagonistic to good public policy are laboring under a misunderstanding of the matter. Nor are the union contracts In re striction of trade. The danger of the ex clusive contract is more apparent than real." Recent court decisions In Massa chusetts, In New York, In Iowa and in Omaha In the beer Injunction cases were cited In connection with the matter of ex clusive contracts. Passing to the moral argument purely, Colonel McCullough made the assertion that the trade unions are as purely philan thropic ns missionary societies or as the churches themselves. In treating of or with them the moral obligations of human deal ings should have more weight and the exact legal phases much less. A strike breuker Is not doing the honnrnhlo thing, the moral thing, when he sacrifices others. He may bo doing a legal act, but ho Is doing more to Injure society at large. Is more of a menace, his act la more subtle and dan gerous than the passionate violation of a legal enactment pure and simple. Salvation for the Workers. Further along this line of moral obliga tion to men as such Colonel McCullough asked: "Why deny to the trade unions their own code of ethics, when all pro fessions have their own codes and Insist on having them lived up to? The enforce ment of the code of the unions haa In creased the Investments and earnings of capital many fold. The statistics of the last T'nlted States census, available to every one, will convince the Investigator of this. The spectre of high wages and Indus trial stagnation is proved to be very un substantial by those etatistlca. The good men among the employers and In the unions are In a big majority on their re spective sides. The only salvation of the worker Is In his union. We cannot evade the conclusion or deny the application. Organisation is necessary to both parties, 59 Everybody Says "20th Century Soap Is the Best Soap for all Purposes It is numbered among the household necessities and making new friends every d,ay.

The unions must be virile and potential, for the survival of the fittest means the survival of the fighter, strong and with the capacity to utilize his strength." The speaker closed with an earnest ad monition to union men to keep ever In mind their responsibilities, not only to grasp opportunities, but to elevate the membership and compel the respect of all people. "Reform of the trade unions can not come from without. It must come from within. And let as keep In mind that the true optimistic doctrine la on, on, ever on." SUIT AGAINST HIGHLANDERS Injunction Proceedings Started by Dr. Gooden to Keep from Being; Ousted. Dr. William F. Gooden of Denver, who claims to hold the office of chief physical examiner of the Order of Royal Highland ers, is preparing to bring suit In the United States circuit court asking that the Royal Highlanders, William E. Sharp, Frank J. Sharp, Augustus 'Slekmun, Charles A. Sharp, L. J. Sleknwui, Frederiok Hankoy, M. B. Treat and l.iaiah W. Haughey be en Joined from ousting him from his office as chief physical examiner of the Royal High landers, and that the action of tho execu tive committee of the executive castle of that order In deposing him from office bo declared void and of no effect. He also asks the court to declare as void and of no effect the presumed appointment of Isaiah W. Haughey as chief physical ex aminer of the order, made to displace the plaintiff as such officer. The papers In the case are being filed this afternoon by E. E. Brown, editor of the Hastings Observer, against whom W. E. Sharp filed a criminal libel suit In Lincoln.

True Scholarly Spirit. But of course what counts Infinitely more than any possible outside reward Is the spirit of the worker himself. The primo need Is to Instill Into the minds ot me scholars themselves a true apprecia tion of real as distinguished from sham success. In productive scholarship, in the scholarship which adds by its work to the sum of substantial achievement with which the country Is to be credited, It is only tlrst class work that counts. In this Held the smallest amount of really tlrst-claas work Is worth all the second-class wbrk that can possibly be produced: and to have dona such toork-i is In itsalf the fullest and amplest reward to the man producing It. We outsiders should, according to our ability, aid him in every way to produce it. let an tnat we can no is out little corn pared to what he himself can and must do. The fcrl'lt of the scholar is the vital factor In the productive scholarship ot the coun try. bo much tor the nrst function of the university, the sending forth of a small number of scholars of the highest rank who will do productive work of the tlrst class. Now turn to the second, and what may be called the normul, function of tho college, the function of turning out each year many hundreds of men who shall pos sess me traineu intelligence, anil especially the character, that will enable them to bold high the renown of this ancient seat of learning by doing useful service for the nation. It Is not my purpose to discuss at lengtli what should be done In Harvard to produce the right spirit among the men who go out of Harvard, but rather to speak of what this spirit should be. Nor shall I speak of the exceptions, the men to whom college ine is a oisaovaniage. Kandoloh of Koanolte. he of the biting tongue, once remarked of an opponent that he reminded inm or certain tracts ot lanu which were almost worthless by nature, and became entirely so by cultivation." Of course, if in any individual univeisity training produces a taste for refined Idle ness, a distaste for sustained effort, a barren lrftel ectual arrogance, or a sense of supercilious aloofness from the world of real men who do the world's real work, then It has harmed that Individual; but In such case there remains the abiding com fort that he would not have amouniea to much anyway. Neither a college training nor anvthlng else can do much good to the man of weak liber or to the man with a twist in his moral or intellectual maKcup. lint the nverase undergraduate haa enough robustness of nature, enough capacity for enthusiasm ana aspiration, to maae n worth while to turn to account the stuff that Is In him. Sport and the University. It is a had thing for any college man to grow to regard sport as the serious busi ness of life. It Is a bad thing to permit sensationalism and hysteria to shape tho development of our sisirts. And finally It Is a much worse thing to permit college sport to become in any shai or way tainted bv professionalism, or by so much as the slightest suspicion of money-maklngi and this is especially true ii ine proies sionallsm Is furtive, If the boy or man vio lates the spirit of the rule while striving to keep within the letter. Professional eport is all right In Its way. 1 am glad to say that among my friends I number profes sional boxers and wrestlers, oarsmen and base ball men, whose regard I value and whom In turn I regard as thoroughly good citizens. But the college undergraduate who, In furtive fashion, becomes a seml nr,.feioiinl is an unmitigated curse, and that not alone to university life und to the cause of amateur sport; for the college graduate ought In after years to take the leaa in putting tne ousuiesH iiioiiimy ui this country on a proper plane, anu ne can ,in it if In his own rolleicu career Ills code of conduct has been warped and twisted. Moreover, the spirit which puts so excessive a value upon his work as to produce this seml-protessionai is useir un healthy. I wish to see Harvard win a reasonable proportion of the contests In l,i,.. it enters, and I should be heartily ashamed of every Harvard athlete who did not spend every ounce mere was in mm in the effort to win, provided only he does It In honorable and manly fashion. Hut I think our effort should be to minimize rather than to Increase that kind of love of athletics which manifests Itself, not In Joining In the athletic sports, but In crowd ing by tens of thousands to see other peo ple Indulge in them. It is a fur better thing for our colleges to have the average student Interested In some form of athletics than to have them all gather In a muss to see other people do their athletics for them. Attitude Wholly Kvll. The very rich man who conducts his busi ness as If he believed that lie were a law unto himself, thereby Immensely Increases the difficulty of the task of upholding order when the disorder Is a menace to men of property; for If the community feels that rich men disregard the law where It affects themselves, then the community is apt to assume the dangerous ami unwholesome attitude of condoning crimes of vlulenia committed against the Interests which in the nonular mind these rich men represent. This last attitude is wholly evil; but so is the attitude which produces it. We have a right to appeal to the alumni of Harvard, and to the alumni of every Institution of learning In this land, to do their part in creating a public sentiment wmcn snail ne mand of all men of means, and especially of the men of vast fortune, t;iat they t.et an example to their less fortunate brethren, bv navinii scrupulous hwd not only to the letter, but to the spirit of the laws, and by scknowledglng In the heartiest fashion the moral obligations which cannot be ex prtat 1 la law. aui wblch alJi4 tavok of and above all laws. It Is fnr more Impor tant that they should conduct their business affairs decently than that they should spend the surplus of their fortunes In philan thropy. Much hns been given to these men and we have a right to demand much of them In return. Kvery man of great wealth who runs his business with cynical con tempt for those prohibitions of the law which by hired cunning he can escape or evade la a menace to our community; and the community Is not to be excused If It does not develop a spirit which actively frowns on nnd discountenances him. Kvlls llred In I.avr. The groat profession of the law should be that whose members ought to take tho lead In the creation of Just such a spirit. We all know that, as things actually ate, many of the most Influential and most highly remunerated members of the bar In every center of wealth make It their special task to work out bold and Ingenious schemes by which their very wealthy cli ents, individual or corporate, can evade the laws which are made to regulate In the interest of the public the use of great wealth. Now, the great lawyer who em ploys his talent and his learning In the highly remunerative task of enabling a very wealthy client to override r circumvent the law Is doing all that in him lies to en courage the growth in. this country of a spirit of dumb anger against all laws and of disbelief in their efficacy. Such a spirit may breed the demand that laws shall be made even more drastic against the rich, or else It may manifest Itself In hostility to all laws. Surely Harvard has the right to expect from her sons a high standard of applied morality, whether their paths lend them Into public life, into bus iness, or Into, the great profession of the law, whose members are so potent In shap ing the growth of the national soul.

BROWN MAKES TAHIFF TUB 1SSIE Democratic Candidate Addresses the Voters at Plattamonth. PLATTSMOUTII, Neb., June 28. (Spe cial.) F. W. Brown, democratic candidal for congress in the First district, addressed the voters of Plattsmouth this evening. He said in part: In my address at Nebraska City I said that I would support President Roosevelt in what Is known as the "Taft Order," which order Is to the effect that Panama canal supplies shall he purchased In other markets providing such a course be neces sary to protect the government from ex tortionate prices placed by the tariff barons. You will remember that 1 also said at Nebraska City that I would go farther and would demand for tho Individual con sumers of the country the same privilege which Mr. Roosevelt demands for the gov ernment. To that end I would favor a law giving the president authority to re move the tariff from any article which, after proper inquiry, Is found to be the subject of trust agreement or the product of a combination coming under the defini tion of "conspiracy In restraint or iraue. I notice that Mr. Pollard, my opponent. and Senator Btirkett had considerable to sav In their speeches at Tecumsen con cerning the panic of 1893. And the fair In ference from their remarks would be that In the event this government followed the "Taft Order" to its logical conclusion hard times would result. These gentlemen have fnrirotten that the so-called panic of lKii3 originated under a republican administra tion and reached its lielgnt unoer a re publican tsrlff law. I i.,,iirn ttmt In him sneech at Tecumson. Senator Uurkett said that experience should have tauirht me something on the tariff, and he calld attention to the difference be tween our condition in isst mm in iwn. it is not necessary to call upon a Vnlted States senntor to explain the difference In the conditions occurring In one year after six years of panlo occurring under repub lican administration and flourishing under republican legislation, with the three years of no crops and nine years In which nature had been goon to us ana tne pnnn nan yielded abundantly. 1 hope Messrs. PolKrd and Rurkett do not claim that the republi can partv Is entitled to credit for the good rrnni of corn and wheat without which every school hoy knows that adversity would have befallen us.

Two masked men entered tha Northwestern depot last night about 10 o'clock and covering Agent Nlles and Op erator Van Druskl with revolvers through, the ticket office window forced their way Uito the depot office and made an Inef fectual attempt to rob the safe. The cool ness of the railroad men enabled them to gain time for the agent to make his es cape through a rear door and give tha alarm as he could not get to his gun, which was near tho robbers. A bullet from ono of the holdup's revolvers passed within a few Inches of Mr. Nlles head and went through the building.
