"The existence of great wraith In the world It of vastly more Importance than the distribution of It. and after all. wealth la the. great thing of any civilised com munity," vii one of tbe statements made by Chancellor Fl Benjamin Andrews before the Men's Fellowship league at the First Baptist church last evening. The meeting, which was the first' of a series of Ave to be held on live topics, wan largely attend ed and thoroughly appreciated. C. G. Lyon, president of the league, presided. Refresh ments were served after the chancellor's address. In part Chancellor Andrews said: The existence of great wealth Is the thing human beings should strive for, rather than to quibble over Its distribu tion. Were I certain that enough and plenty of wealth could be produced for all of humanity for all time to come then I would agree that we get together and reason over the distribution. If there Is wealth in a community, the majority of the people will be fairly well off. Go to any civilized community today, destroy all the wealth and you will have no civiliza tion tintll new wealth can be created. It Is a good thing to remind ourselves from time to time that wealth la the greatest good we have. Our good things In the way of education, religion, art, etc., could not exlRt without wealth. God planted In the heart of man the accumulation of wealth. Motive the Important Thing;. Now for another consideration: Wealth can be put to bud uses, but we should not destroy the strtictnre because of a few ' flaws tn the foundation. The pursuit of wealth is consistent with the Christian mo tiveto love God and man and to benefit the race. 1 maintain we can devote our lives to the accumulation of wealth and yet be Christians. It Is the motive wh oh rotints Borne go forward with only a selfish motive and should be condemned. It is not liard to get rich; Just pay the appropriate f.rlce and you can accumulate wealth, but f the wealth Is accumulated with selfish motives the possessor win gain me of neither God nor man. I can easily conceive that many accumu late wealth with the Idea of being a bene factor to humanity, but the men who pile vtp wealth as a shylocK should not be up held as an example, nor their methods be patterned after. While wealth stands at the bottom of all things of civilization, it is not the top and will not of itself save "It "is a 'confusion of Ideas to say that the concentration of wealth Into the hands of a few necessarily means the concentra tion of the benefits of wealth. While today there are more millionaires and multi millionaires than ever before In this coun try, yet It Is also true that never before in the history of the country have the In dustries had such opportunities for the accumulation of wealth. It la entirely er roneous to say that one man getting rich has. the effect of taking away the wealth from the masses. The only way such a thing could be done would be for a man to accumulate, say two millions in gold, and then dump It into the sea. Division ot Wealth. Of the Immensely wealthy classes I would make three divisions: Those who earn nothing, and thereby contribute nothing to the storehouse of society; those who place their money in the hands of men who make wise Investments of their wealth, and those who, by their great minds, have ac cumulated much wealth. The rich man Is powerless to use his wealth without as aistlng In some manner you and me. The rich man Is guilty before God if he uses his wealth In a foolish way. While there Is no excuse for the expenditure of Idle wealth, we must be charitable In what we term "Idle wealth." The chancellor, said he favors a, progres siva Income tax and a doath tax, and stated that wealth should be a new creation to be honestly held.' - Railway Nates and Personals, Track laying on the Ashland cut off Is proceeding at the rate of about three miles r day, at which rate the rails should all be down by December 15. J. J. Vallery, general agent of the Bur lington at Denver, Is In the city. He Is enthusiastic over the business which the railroads did during the summer to Den ver, especially during the Grand Army of the Republic encampment. He said: "Den ver and all Colorado are now engaged in booming the mountains as winter resorts and the railroads have taken up the spirit ui me tiling oy putting in especially low rates." . C. K. Spena. general freight agent of the Burlington lines west of the Missouri river. Is In Chicago figuring on a freight tariff sheet for the Ashland line to filoux City. This is a very difficult problem, as the Ploux City Jobbers are demanding that they be put on the same basis as Omaha. The Burlington has announced that it will not accede to these demands and will do noth ing to Injure the Omaha Jobbers In their territori'. Grain rates will be restored to their for mer status after January 1. Th rate prior to August 1 was 12 cents for wheat and 11 cents for corn. This was changed August 1 to 1V oewts for wheat and (H, cents for corn, and was raised Vi cent on each Octo ber 1. at which point il now stands.

He Is enthusiastic over the Lincoln team and said the people nf fit. Joseph were very wrathy because they lost their franchise. He looks for an eight team league and he believes that Topeka and Rt. Joseph will furnish the other two teams, as lie thinks the Missouri Valley leigue cannot exist. Should St. Joseph get Into the league that town will have to get new players and a new manuger.

The scores of both teams were lower than usual, as brand-new and heavier pins were used.

IOWA i CITY. Nov. 6. (Special.)-Last week's games demonstrated conclusively that, there are but two teams In the stale this year who will be the real contestants for the championship of Iowa, and these two teams are tne btate university and the State Agricultural college. Grtnnell'a hopes of figuring in the final result were thor oughly shattered after the Iowa game, and those who had been following the work of the scarlet and black team during the en tire season knew after the Penn game that It was only a question of how big the Hawkeyes would run up the score. As pre dicted two weeks ago Grtnnell took a se vere slump following the Drake game. The me.i had been coached up to that point anil having won the game the reaction was enough to disorganize the play of the sqad. Kealon Signs with Ptttsbara. PITTSBURG. Pa., Nov. 6.

The Nebraska foot ball championship will be decided Saturday at Bellevue. when Doaue and Bellevue meet. Neither team has lost a game In the championship sched ule and both are being keyed to do the battle of their rareer. Arrangements have been made to take ISO rooters from Crete to neiievue and the fun will be fast and furious. The disbanding of the Crelghton foot hall team la regretted. Crelghton was the only hope left for some large games. The teaiii was not what It should have been. Creich t'Ui tins plenty of money to secure a firs rlusa coach, and to eciulp a first-class foot lutll team. There are plenty of men la Crelghton university from which a top notch foot ball team could be picked. College undergraduates will laugh when they read that a font ball' game was post poned because of rain, but there were sev eral sides to the question. Both teams need th revenue which the Omuha-Council ' Bluffs game will give, and as there was an ! opt ii date the managers concluded it would ' he the part of prudence to play the game I when there would be some srs'Cta'ors Iti ' h.hii of in tne blinding rain wnen no tpeetatora would be present.

Before this mass was said In St. John's church as part of the services of the day, which partook of the nature of a holiday to the faculty and students. The auditorium was well filled with stu dents and frlsnds of the institution. Includ ing Count John A. Crelghton. On the stage hung a large oil portrait of Edward Crelghton, whose aspirations and finances started the school. To the left and right were large American flags. In the memorial address Mr. McNally aid: "Thirty-one years ago today our city was saddened by the report that one of Its earliest pioneers and most beloved citizens had ended an honored and useful life, but the fame of his name was destined to sur-, vlve. The students of this university are gathered here In a spirit of love and rever- ence to commemorate the name of Edward j Crelghton. Proud we may be ir we emu late his virtues and follow his example. He was a worthy model, whom all Chris tian young men should strive to emulate. Loved and Admired by All. "HoneBt. open-hearted and liberal, sym pathetic and kindly to all, he was loved and admired by all who were fortunate enough to form his acquaintance. He came to Omaha In its Infancy and nourished Its growtlf. He accomplished one of the great est undertakings of his life by stretching the first telegraph line across the conti nent. In all his achievements he felt keenly the lack of education. He knew o com plete education would have been a great strength to him. He intended to found a great Institution, but died before his project had been put Into execution. Through his wife provisions were made for what has grown to be one of the great universities of the middle west. "In honoring the founder we are unable to disassociate tne name of another whose purpose has been closely allied; a man whose deeds of Christian charity are too many to be named, one whoee life has been an Inspiration to a great many Count John A. Crelghton. The alms and objects of this gentleman nre the same as those of his illustrious brother, and God has given him more years to curry them out. One was the guardian of the university's birth, the other the protector of Its life." President Donlluu'i Address. President Dowllng congratulated the stu dents on organizing a band In his absence, sympathized about tl. dlslMtndlug of the foot ball team and urged the students to make up for this loss of prestige by re doubled efforts In scholastic and religtous lines. He assured them learning could be acquired only by hard work and the sacri fice of pleasures. The president reminded his hearers that while the founder desired the. school to be one of higher education and the formation of good character, yet he did not overlook the placing of religion In the foundation of the. edlAoe. and -that the studenu would not be carrying forward the Intentions of Edward Crelghton unless they built up firm, strong. Christian char acters. For the program the university band played several selections, John Jamleson and Ray Corrigan gave a Latin dialogue, Charles McGrath and William Young con tributed declamations and Fred Borghoff two violin solos. Vice President O'Connor made the awards of honors for September and October and read the standing of the members of the classes. ELECTRIC LINES AND TRADE One in Kansas and One In Nebraska Promised to Give Good Hosalts. O. J. Collman of Lincoln, general man ager ot the Kansas, Southern & Gulf rail road, with headquarters at Westmoreland, Kan., is an Omaha visitor. "Our road is yet a rather small affair," he said, "but it is capable of big possibili ties. It now extends from Westmoreland, Pottawattamie county, Kan., to Blaine, and is doing a fair business. Wo will build thirty-five miles more of track from Omega to Alma by spring. I see the Omaha, Lin coln A Beatrice Interurban line is moving along encouragingly. They are now build ing from Lincoln to Bethany, with the prospect of doing some extensive work In the spring. The road will be a big thing for Omaha In drawing trade from the southern Nebraska territory. It is a road that should have been built long ago." Last Supreme Effort.

It was decided to engage Miss Mary McDowell of Chicago University Settlement 'to Speak before the club at the open meeting February 15. Whtle her sub ject Is not yet known, It will be along the sociological lines of work thst have made Miss McDowell a national authority. Following the action of the department two weeks ago In Its resolution asking the Board of Education to seriously consider the establishment of a school for children who could not be retained in the regular graded public schools, a committee was ap pointed consisting of Mrs. Draper Smith, Mrs. E. G. McGilton and Miss M. E. Mc Cartney to formulate some more definite plan and present it to the board. If the program as outlined is carried out, and there is every assurance that it will lie, the social science department will afford a liberal education in local socio logical problems this winter. The local Associated Charities will afTord the topic for the next meeting, Superintendent S P. Morris to speak on the dependent women and children and the system In general. The labor law of Nebraska for women and children will be presented at the next meeting by State Labor Commissioner Bert Bush. The women have taken an active interest in the application of this law and its enforcement, especially In the large department and other stores and fac tories of Omaha, and through their efforts violations have been discovered In several local establishments. The work of the Consumers' league, the use of Its "white label" and the labels of the -arious trades unions will be considered at another meet ing directly after the holidays. Chelgh ton college will furnish a speaker on some sociological subject at another meeting; Superintendent Hayward of the Kearney Industrial school has promised another day; two meetings will be given to a con sideration of property rights for women members, Apperson and Cady of the last legislature, who Introduced the club women's bill in the house and the senate, to be the speakers; two meetings will be given over to civic .questions, another to educational topics and another to civic service. Besides these, several other sup plementary subjects will be considered, and all will be presented by authorities. This outline was announced yesterday afternoon. Mrs. Alone Shane Devln of Washington, D. C, formerly a prominent Chicago club woman and newspaper correspondent, was a guest and spoke briefly of the progress of the women of China. Considering the strides toward education and general en lightenment being made by the women of China, she expressed the opinion that the lime is not far distant when that country will begin, through its women as well as its men. to take its' place among the na tions. She said further that the education of Chinese women In American Institutions was materially limited, owing to our Immi gration laws. ' '', Mrs. Harriet ' Heller, superintendent of the Douglas County Detention home for Juveniles, also spoke of the duty of the community toward Its delinquent children. She said there were two great reasons why Juvenile delinquents should have expert at tention from a, .community; first because It is society's right to protect Itself with common-sense" 'measures of prevention against futurenf rlmlnals, and secondly be cause It. Is tifi right of the child to be intelligently,, corrected at the expense of the community .that has contributed, even though unconsciously, to It need of cor rection. She ,w'ent upon the theory that the bad boy Is very likely to make a bad man, but if the fault -of the child could bo corrected society owed it to Itself and to the child to afford that correction. Something over 150 new names were added to the membership roll of the local Young Women's Christian association by the "get one" banquet 1 served Monday evening by the young women of the First Presbyterian church. Over 300 women sat down at the long tables arranged In the association dining room, which was hung with yellow and white bunting and decorated with chrysanthemums. Following the banquet. V'ss Esther Anderson of Chicago, one of the national secretaries, spoke of the ne-i cesslty of a properly equipped building to meet the demands of city association work. Miss Andersoa recently resigned the gen eral secretaryship of the Detroit associa tion, which had the model building of the American associations, and having had an active part In the campaign for that build ing was tn a '-position to advise the local organization. ' Miss Susan Paxson, also a national secretary, spoke of the student work, national and state. i Two more districts In the Iowa Federation of Women's Clubs have held tbelr annual conventions during the past fortnight, the Eighth district at Garner, October 2t, and tho Sixteenth district at Keokuk, Novem ber 1. Both meetings were largely at tended and their programs excellent. The convention of the Fifth district, to be held Wednesday of this week at Glenwood, will be an Important gathering, and a generous representation from Council Bluffs is prom ised. The names of three Council Bluffs women appear on the program Mrs. F. A. Bixby to speak on "The Leadership of De partments;" Mrs. Page Morrison will give a paper on "The Study of Domestic Science." and Mrs. Wslter I. Smith will demonstrate the serving of a dinner.

WASHINGTON. Nov. .-The sentiment among naval offlclnls In fiivor of larger warships with Increased gun power will, It Is expected, result In an appeal to congress to Incrense the tonnage of the two battle ships authorized by the act of March last to 1S.0OO tons. The general board of the navy, of which Admiral Dewey is at the head, has submitted to Secretary Bona parte a recommendation for a naval In crease program. The secretary has the subject under consideration. In addition to the recommendation of the general board ho will hav before hltn the views of the naval board on construction, which Is com posed of bureau chiefs of the department. It Is understood thst the general board has recommended the construction of bat tleships of greater tonnage than any yet projected for the American navy. One of the principal objects aimed at by the ad vocates of bigger battleships is the Installa tion of a greater number of the largest sized guns carried by American men-of-war. Consideration already hns been given to the possibility of installing ten twelve-Inch guns on a battleship, and If congress favors an increase of the Michigan and South Carolina, the two battleships authorized last March, from 16. "00 to 18.0O0 tons, one of the problems to be solved will be the disposition of the large number of twelve inch guns which It is desired to mount. The mounting of an increased number of the largest-sized guns, it Is said, would mean the doing away with those of smaller caliber In the main battery, which would give greater uniformity in the size of guns of the main battery. The biggest battleships now building for the navy carry but four twelve-Inch guns, supplemented by a number of eight and seven-Inch guns. peed Ifot so Important. In discussing the question of armament for battleships today one expert expressed the opinion that the speed of the vessels Is not so Important a consideration, for, he said, battleships are made to fight and not to run. With a battery of tho biggest guns pouring forth shells of the greatest size from every quarter, lie said. It would not be necessary to develop such great speed except In pursuit of an enemy. There are now building for the American navy six battleships of 16,000 tons each. The Michigan and South Carolina, author ized at the last session, are to ba of the same size, unless congress can be Induced to increase their tonnage to 18.000 tons. The recommendations which Secretary Bonaparte will make in the matter of in creases for the navy are awaited with much interest. The fact that so many new ships will be added to the navy during the com ing year makes the question of an adequate personnel one of serious consideration. If the present policy of keeping all the ships of the navy in condition for Immediate service is to be maintained. When the battleships and armored cruisers now un der construction are placed In commission a much larger number of enlisted men will be required, as well as several hundred additional officers. If the present rate of construction is carried out, it Is estimated at the department thut six or seven bat- tleshlps and four big armored cruisers and two protected cruisers will be ready for commission within the next twelve or fif teen months. The new battleships call for something like 282 officers and 5,190 enlisted men, while the four armored cruisers call for an aggregate of 162 officers and 2,20t men. TOTS TURN 0UTF0R BUSTER Children Delighted with Meeting- of Man Who Dwells Warmly la Their Henrts. The man who Is responsible for Buster Brown and Tlge told an audience at the Boyd yesterday afternoon all about the two old ruiln nnit a 11 1 tl nttnnt nuntn-'. heart, Mary Jane. Mr. R. F. Outcault, whose famous pictures have been known to read ers ot 'i ne eunday Bee and many other big papers, this long while, la quite as entertaining In the person as he Is In the colored supplement. He has an easy and charming way of telling stories and he puts the subjects of his yarns before you quickly and clearly by means of black and colored crayon. Mr. Outcault pitches his talk mostly for children and the little ones made up fully one-ha,lf of those who went to the theater to see7 and hear him. The humor the artist gets rid of. however, is of a kind that auditors of any age appreciate, besides being fresh and clean. Some of it has to do with types In little towns, a lot of It is about animals and a good share pertains to' Buster Brown. Mr. Outcault shows up Buster's good traits and his foibles; his courage and his mischief.. He takes one back to the ftme when both Buster and Tige were mostly "head, ears and paws." and explains how they became acquainted and learned "to trust each other and grow Into Inseparable companions. The pictures and stories about Buster and Tige excited the most laughter and ap plause. The other bits were popular, too. Several of the stories required character acting and Mr. Outcault responded with all that was necessary as though to the stage born and trained.
