BEFORE THE PEOPLE'S BAR yianrilna-Rooin-Onlr ln la In hjr Jorfae Monday Mornlna. liana Police Magistrate Berks had to hang out the "Standing Room Only" sign Monday morning, as the bill offered before the peo ple's bar was such as to draw a largo crowd. The audience was most cosmopol itan in Its make-up. there being present pen. pie of all nationalities and stations in life. There was a full complement of colored waiters from s. local hotel to answer the charge of gambling and there was a goodly representation of Omaha's musical talent to hear the Syjnons wife abandonment case, which was not heard. The program offered was botli lengthy and varied. F.vldently Charles Mlnimaugh of South Omaha has not learned the lesson that It Is not wise to look a gift cow in the teeth. Sunday evening Mr. Mimniaugh called nt the city Jail and asked for bed and boa id for the night. The Mngic City citizen said he had been caught on the wrong side of the market, had fallen several stories, financially, and was out of that commodity known as cash. So the desk sergeant as signed Mr. Mimmaugh to a bench in the jail hall, lather than place the man with tho prisoners, and then had the Jail cook get something to eat for the wayfarer, al though the time for the regular evening meal had long since past and the Jail dishes i had all been washed. The Jail cook laid down a sofa pillow she was working on to get a meal for Miinmaugli. A few minutes after Mlminuiigh hud been served with the meal a terrible racket was heard in the Jail hall. At first the enpttain thought Boston Green was having a night mare, but on investigation it was learned .' Mint Mltnniniigh was venting his wratl on the Jail attaches In general and the culinary department in particular. Captain Haze walked into the hall in his usual nonchalant manneu and inquired as to the noise. "I say. enp'n, is this de best grub dcy serve here? Dey must tink I'm a horse. I don't like do surroundings nt dls lintel any way," said Mimmaugh to Captain Haze. Mimmaugh emphasized his remarks by throwing his; meal around the hall. "Take this man inside, give him the best room in the house and see he gets a por terhouse steak with miishruoms. ' said Captain Haze to Desk Sergeant Havey. Minuiiaugli was taken inside and charged with drunkenness and disorderly conduct. ; if,, wa() filled J2 and cost in police court Monday morning.

Dough thought he was com manding a herd of pink elephants and bright-hued horses when arrested. He also thought he had been assigned to drive all . the snakes out of Omaha and was about to do so when his anions attracted attention, j At tho city Jail he declared Omaha had I more snakes than any city lie ver visited.

By that I j mean that In looking nt the magnificent I panorama you see the city as it Is truly a home city on tha border of the rolling hills j of beautiful Nebraska. I "The panoiama is wonderfully exact In j technical execution and The Bee deserves great credit for backing such an enterprise. Few cities huve been as well represented by a panorama as Omaha. To those who live in Nebraska and the surrounding states who have never had an opportunity of seeing Omaha this picture will he a revelation." Gold Bracelets. Ed holm. Jeweler.

Miss Magee has given out a great, dml of clothing among the families lepie settled In the mission i Ihshs that has en abled many to attend school regularly and in comfort. The Industrial and temperance elas.'s ate all largely attended and I he mother' meetings attract women from nil ; over the east end of the city. Miss Magee J has as yet been unable tn secure definite support for tills workfl, but has kept ii up ; as best she could. i Mrs. Maty I' Wo.nl, In charge vf the General Federation bureau of Infoi mattnn, makes the following announcement in The Northern: "Some recent additions hnvc been made to the outlines In the office of the bureau of Information. These cover tt large number of literary, scientific and so ciological subjects and are furnished from the most authoritative sources. These new acquisitions give to the bureau upward of tn different outlines for study, covering a wonderful range of choice or for clubs that are seeking programs for another year. The bureau Is also preparing, with the ad vice nf Mrs. Decker, s list of questions which will be sent to each club with a view to collecting more aeonrats statistics regarding tho club women of the country than has hitherto been obtained. The club women are making use of the bureau In a most gratifying ninnner and the enter prise seems to be fast making a place for Itself." A Chicago elulj is ndvocuting a novel plan for overcoming vandalism among boys. It has been estimated that it cost the city over 10.(KiO to replace windows broken In the school houses of Chicago during tho summer vacation by boys. It is estimated that this mischief Is done by boys who generally need t lie attention of the compulsory education department dur ing school months and who, during the summer, free from this restraint, commit nil sorts of depredations. The club women have nuggpstcd that these boys, together with all the boys of the school, be organ ized into brigades with elected officers for the protection of the school and school property. The officers will lie responsible lo the school principals for the preserva tion of school property, and will report to Ihcni at regular intervals. It is thought that this plan will not only afford effective protection to school property, but will de velop a civic pride among the boys that will bear other fruits. It has been sug gested that the organizations bo called civic pride brigades. This same plan, though on a smaller scale, bus been prac ticed lu several Otnuha schools for a num ber of years and with excellent results. Finally the boys of the seventh grade have served as chiefs of lookout committees that have included all the other boys of the school. They have not only guarded the building, but the flower beds and the glass plots in the school yards ns well. An important conference for school im provement was held recently at Knoxvllle. Tenn., at which it was decided to under take the formation of a southern Interstate women's organization for the betterment of the public school.-' of the south. A commit tee was appointed representing each state sending a delegate to the Southern Summer School conference and Mrs. Lindsay Pat terson, president of the North Carolina Fed eration, was elocted president of the organi zation. Each member of the committee becomes president of her own state or ganization and as most of the members are prominent In the club work of their re spective states the working force of the association Is assured. Kaeh state chair man Is responsible for the organization of the work In her dirtrlct und will report back to the central committee. "It may not be all that we want to do," said Mrs. Patterson In her address, "but only what busy women ran find time to do between times." And experlenco has demonstrated that It Is the busy club woman who ac complishes most. Mrs. Patterson's account of the prog ress of this same work in her own state since its establishment In 1902 was en couraging even to those from the most disorganized sections. For the 8.000 chil dren of school nge in one county there were seventy schools; 4.000 were enrolled, and of these less than 3.0o0 attended reg ularly. This wns due to the ignorance of parents or the indifference of com mittee men. Six schools out of the lot had llhraries and three hud insps. "One month," she continued, "we drove 250 miles visiting thlrty-fonr schools, visiting teach ers' Institutes, committee men and talk ing to teachers, pupils and parents, trying to Impress upon .tit the necessity of regular and full attendance, clean school house blackboards, maps, attractive rooms and well kept grounds. Thirty-two of the thirty-four promised Improvement In houses and grounds, thus to win the set of pic tures promised by the Youth's Companion to any school so doing. A great many pet to work to get smnll libraries and en tertainments, lawn parties, errands, chores and anything else that would bring in money became generally popular." And this story is unly a repetition of what is told over and over sgain at state federa tion meetings every year. This Is "club work" and the branch to which club women have been and are slill giving soma of their best effort. American Arrested la Milan. MILAN, Italy, Dec.

AMERICAN FORCE REACHES VAXIYUM With I.IMM Non-Immune K.inplo.i r. Health Hnte Is Mnmsl a lod as thai In the I nlied stnt'. WASHINGTON. Pec. pi. The Vepol t of Colonel o. W. Gorgas of the Panama ohiihI rone for October shows hrep cases of yel low fever during the month, which, be t-as. indicates the early disappearance, of the disease, only one ciiso was an einploj r of the commission. Colonel Goigas states ti nt Panama hm often been free from yellow fever, but the only disappearance was when they had no nonimmunes to contract It. Pining Oc tober, he says, they bed all the natural conditions favorable fur yellow fever and a larger numN-r of nonimmune probably than had ever before been on the isthmus, with a wet and hot month. The American force reached its maximum, about 22,0un, of which number alsnit 4.000 are nonimmunes, among whom was only one case of yellow fever and not a slui.ie death. The report sas thai with 22.'VW men there, the sick rate is twenty-one per thousand. Colonel Gorgas points out thai when the sanitary Improvement in progress, including street paving in Panama and Colon, water works In Panama. Colon and along the line, and comfortable screened buildings lor the employes at all points, are com pleted, the health conditions will be still further improved, but states that lv Is in clined to think that the sanitary question of Panama has been settled, us has been shown, he adds, by the fact that a force of laborers as large as there ever will be can work on the isthmus without suffering from yellow fever, and that the general health of this same force can he kept as good as If they were digging a canal In a healthy part of the Fnlted States proper.

He said: "The sanitary conditions at the canal are all right. I went through five month without prejudices, and In a receptlv condition of mind, with no opinion about sanitary matters, sanitarians or their methods. 1 met conditions as I found them und now believe that the country is good enough for anyone who will live a cleanly life without excess. In fact Just as tit would at home. As fur Hie mosquitoes I belleva there are more in on county In northern Michigan than there are on th whole isthmus. The congestion of freight has been removed and we huve cleared up considerable work between railroads and moving material and this without ad ditional facilities.
