Seventeen young men and one young
Woman, graduating students of the Omaha
Medical college, tlio clinical deportment of
the 1'nlverslty of Nebraska College of
Medicine, were given their parchments at
the fifth annual eommoncen'ent of the
school, held at the First Congregational
Church, Thursday evening, and the degree
f doctor of laws was conferred upon a
member of the profession In recognition
Cf his heroic, self-sacrificing work In the
advancement of knowledge regarding dis
ease, which sacrifice resulted In an Illness
tendering It Impoaslblo for him to be pres
ent. The memberB of tho graduating class who
Were granted diplomas were John Franklin
Allen, Elmer William Arnold, l.'.lear Duvld
lianghart, Matilda Lovlaa Herg, John Buls,
Edgar Christy, John Jacob Kossler, Robert
Anderson Hamlll. John Fay Hyde, John

Etewart Etoakcs, 'Guy Bercival Stokes, Ed
Ward Miller Ware. Merle , Frank Warner,
Charles Henry Willis, James Madison
Woodiird and Merlin B. Wyatt. All of
these marched before Chancellor E. Uonja
mln Andrews of the university and were
banded their diplomas, except Dr. Arnold,
whom illness resulting from overwork ren
Cored unable to be present.
The program opened with music, after
Which Hov. Edwin Hart Jenkn of tho First
Presbyterian church pronounced the Invoca
tion and Dean Henry Baldwin Ward ad
ministered the oath of Hippocrates to the
candidates and then presented them. Tho
degrees were then conferred-by Chancellor
Andrews, when he Introduced Dr. Nicholas
Benn cf Chicago, pronounced the best
known surgeon In the world, who read the
commencement address, the title of which
Was "The Choice of a Profession."
Address o( Dr. Mean.
In beginning his address Dr. Senn rested
for some time on the Importance of care
fully choosing a profession after the evi
dent Inclination of thu subject. The choice,
he said, should be made by the man or
woman personally, and not by a parent or
other person for him or her, as this has
frequently led to failure and worse. When
he arrived at tho point of taking the step,
In his discussion, from among the three
profusions which he characterized the
most useful to mankind, theology, law and
medicine, ho said the most serious and re
sponsible of all la tho last named.
The speaker enjoined the class that now,
before entering on higher study, each mem
ber give the matter of fitness und aptitude
grave consideration. In order that a change
might bo made still early In life. But If
each has determined unqualifiedly to con
tinue In spite of pitfalls and drawbacks, he
urged even greater study and harder work
than ever and wished all godspeed.
In beginning their careers. Dr. Senn men
tlotaed three things that should always be
kept In mind; first, the value of time; sec
ond, to bo honest, and, third, to work hard
and talk little. Time, ho said, Is the most
valuable asset of each and should be well
Invested.
"During the span of our lives," ha con
tinued, "there will be great revolutions In
the practice of medicine, and It will re
quire all the time you can give, to study
and reading to keep up with the Improve
ments. Never sink Into commercialism,"
he admonished with emphasis. "The pro
fession Is too sacred to be used for sordid
pii'P'Mef. I must acknowledge with shame
that there are quacks and dishonest doc
tors, who are as ballust to the sacrificing,
conscientious, well-meaning members of the
profession." . .
Dr. Senn closed with a call for endeavor
from humanitarian Impulses alone, and not
for fame, wealth or social reward, and told
the class to remeiivbor the valuo of united
effort and co-operation In order to gain
ground In medicine and surgery.
Degree for Dr. Carroll.
The desree of doctor of laws was con
ferred on Dr. Ames Carroll, who lies 111
In bed ul Washington as the result of his
heroic Buiriliie. In the cause of the fight
ugainsl ydlow fever, allowing himself to

CURES '
Q)o BLOOD P0IS0H
The first symptom of Contagious Blood Toison 13 usually a little sore or
Ulcer which does not always excite suspicion Ijccause of its iusinificance but
W the poison becomes more firmly rooted in the blood, the mouth and throat
fclcerate, copper-colored snots appear, a ra.sh breaks out on the body the hair
begins to come out, glands in the neck and rroins swell, and often ulceratinjr
fores form on the limbs, hands or face, tut this is not all : if the poison is'
allowed to remain it works down and attacks the bones, causing necrosis or
decay, and makes a complete physical wreck of the sufferer. It will not do to
tamper with a disease so powerful as Contagious Blood Poison, for every dav
the virus remains in the blood the trouble is progress iuS toward a more dan
f erous stage, and may in the end get beyond the reach of any treatment
There is but one certain, reliable cure for Contagious Blood Poison, and that i'i
B. S. S.. the greatest of all blood purifiers. This remedy attacks the disease in
the right way by going down into the blood and forcing out every particle of
th poison. It makes the blood pure and rich, strengthens the different parts
of the body, tones up the system and cures this humiliating and destructive
disorder permanently. The improvement commences as soon as the patient
geU under the influence of S. S. S. and continues until every vestige of the
poison is driven from the blood, and the sufferer completely restored to health
8. S. S. is not an experiment, it is a success and has cured thousands of case9
ot Contagious Blood Poison in every stage, and being entirely free from minerals
is a sale as well as certain treatment. If you are suffering with this debasing
disease get the poison out of your blood with S. S. S. before it does further
damage. Six-cial home treatment book on the disease and medical advice sent

CARPENTER CRAZED BY ACCIDENTAL PLOW
Miss Sarah Enlng Dies as Result of
Shock from Witnessing' Street
Car Wreck Oyer a,
Year Asro.
There has not been a serious acoident
In the South Omaha yards for a long time.
This, considering; the fact that 40,00)
cars are handled monthly, Is thought by
the yardmasters to be n remarkably (rood
record. The great need of the South Omaha
yards Is space for the handling of such an
extensive traffic. A greater breadth Is tho
most necessary feature, and this Is usually
lacking. The Union Pacific Is maklnir all
possible effort to utlllxe more space. This
Is one reason why the road recently pur
chaxed part of a block on lower N street.
As soon as thlB purchase was mad the
road began to prepare for the laying of
more track. A gang of men was at work
yesterday taking up the deep bed of gravel
which has been laid between the passenger
and the freight depots. This bed Is about
eighteen Inches deep. When the gravel Is
removed new tracks will be laid, to be
known as the city tracks The present
fence probably will be moved back to In
clude these tracks also. This Is considered
an advantage, for at present the cars
destined to the local tracks are exposed
and these are often broken open before the
shipments reach their destination. The
fence will make this a much harder task.
It Is also proposed to uttllxe tho space
formerly occupied by the hay shed near
chute house No. I and also the office and
the chute house for trackage purposes.
This will make room for about eight tracks.
These will be of special advantage In the
rapid sorting of cars In mixed trains.
Crased br 4erllenl Blow.
Ray Shamp was taken to the Omaha Gen
eral hospital from his home at Seventeenth
and Monroe streets In a raving condition
from the effects of a blow received at
Swift's packing plant Wednesday morning.
He was working with the carpenters on
the new structure and using a large circle
6d. In some manner the saw kinked and
whirled a 2x4 scantling around, which
struck him on the side of the head. The
blow felled him like a beef and he became
entirely unconscious for a long time. In
fact, he never regained his senses, but
when not entirely oblivious raved and
struggled In a most frantlo manner. The
attacks became so violent that It was de
termined to remove lilm to the hospital,
which was done yesterday evening. He
Is a man of about 24, years and has a wife
dependent on his support.
Death Due to Shock.
Miss Sarah Ewlng died last evening at
the home of her brother, J. P. Ewlng, 1021
North Twenty-sixth street. Her death
came after a protracted Illness which dates
bark to the worst tragedy the city has
known, the Thirteenth street wreck of
March 13, 1906. At that time Miss Ewlng
conducted a bakery at Thirteenth and J
Street and the wreck occurred almost In
front of her door. Kaskuba, the dead man,
wa"s laid on her floor and Freda Hoffman,
the factory girl who died within a day,
was placed In her bed until she could be
removed to the hospital. Several of the
others received first aid In her bakery.
The shock and terror of that occasion
never left her, for she wus of a highly
sensitive nature and sympathetic. From
that day began a decline which boon de
veloped a hopeless cerebral affection. She
has five brothers In and near the city.
J. P. Ewlng, with whom she died. Is a
commission man at the Exchange. There
la ulso a sister. The funeral service will
be held at the residence Friday evening,
May 24, at 8 o'clock. Dr. R. L. Wheeler
will conduct the sorvlces. The body will
be sent Friday morning to Adair for burial.
Ucr slBter Is Mrs. Myer, Twelfth and J
streets.
Working; on Pnvlna; Contract.
H. B. Fleharty stated yesterday that he
expected to have all the details of the
contract for the paving of Missouri avenue
perfected In readiness for tire meeting of
the city council Monday night. He said
he has had several conferences with Mr.
Murphy, who was the lowest bidder, and
he spiared to be very fair In the matter
and wus willing to apply the (7,000 already
paid on the new contract. The only thing
which appears to stick Is the making of a
form of contract which will stand against
any and J1 possible legal attacks. When
tH,.s shall have been discovered and exe-
I cutod the contractor said fa would push
the work to completion at once and on
his own account, even If the treasury were
temporarily enjoined from paying him.
He Insists that the contract shall hold
water In all details.

NO CHANGE IN POLICE HOURS
Commission Discusses the Qaesrtou,
bat Takes No Deflate
Action.
At an adjourned meeting of the Board
of Fire and Police commissioners last night
the questloi of a twelva-hour shift for
patrolmen was discussed pro and con. The
main object desired was to have more pa
trolmen on duty during the hours from 9
p. m. to I a. m. The matter was finally
put over until next Monday night, during
which time Chief Donahue will look Into
tho question and see If some other way
carmot be figured out to accomplish the
deal red end. '
A majority of the board seemed to be of
the opinion that eight hours are enough
to require a patrolman to walk his beat.
Mayor Dahlman expressed himself as be
ing . strongly In favor of the city buying
some bloodhounds and an automobile to
expedite the catching of bad men. The
matter was discussed at length, most of the
board objeetlng to the expense of such an
experiment. The mayor answered this ob
jection by saying that should the experi
ment prove a dismal failure the city could
ell the automobile for nearly as much
as It cost and shoot the hounds.

Helpers.
The May educational meeting of the local
Woman's Christian Temperance union was
held Wednesday afternoon at the home
of Mrs. W. C. Hughes, 2722 Charles street,
and was largely attended. During the
business hour It was decided to send a
communication to tho Board of Fire and
Police commissioners asking the enforce,
ment of the Slocumb law In the removal
of screens from the windows of saloons In
the city. In pursuance of a plan for
scientific temperance Instruction to the
public schools the union will Investigate
a plan for contest essays on temperance
subjects, now employed In the schools of
Kansas, with a view to Introducing It In
the Omaha schools.
A program followed. Including vocal num
bers by Miss Elizabeth Hamllng and Miss
Violet Hughes and a paper on "Mother

originally at the temperance Instltuto at

V. W. C. A. Building for Pittsburg-.
Young Women's Christian associations all
over the country are rejoicing with the
Pittsburg association In the completion of
Its fSO.OOO building fund, accomplished Inst
w eek. In addition to -hls splendid sum tin
Pittsburg association has the substantial
endowment of $200,000. ucli provisions
sound almost like a fairy tale to tho
Omaha and other associations that havi
to struggle for every dollar. The Pittsburg
endowment was offered some time ago by
H. Clay Frlcke on the condition that thi
women raise the $300,000 for the building
The money was slow In coming until re
cently, when Mr. Frlcke announced that
unless It was raised within a certain time
his endowment offer would bo withdrawn.
The recent campaign and the accomplish
ment of the desired goal was the result.
A few years ago John D. Rockefeller made
a conditional gift of 110i,000 to the Cleveland
association, which was said to be the In
spiration of the Pittsburg gift.
A Musical Searchlight.
At the closing meeting of Sorosls, that
New York club often called the first, Mrs.
John L. Chllds gave a talk entitled "A
Musical Searchlight," which appllos to
clubs in general as well as to Sorosls and
which deserves the serious consideration
.of all as a sin of which all clubs are
more or less guilty. She said In part:
I am not about to bring to your con
sideration a startling discovery In the
muslrul world, but to place the professional
musician and his interests In the fore
ground. It has been shown that the best
charity Is In helping people to help them
selves, and the nohlest and truest philan
thropy Is not In giving alms, but In meas
uring out justice. We, as organized club
women, help to work out problems dealing
with women and child labor, free hospitals,
education of the blind, care for the crippled,
and help for the poor, yet as clubwomen
are holding what may be termed an un
to sing or play for lis fori
smiles nnd sweet words, and V
often with bitterness of B
smiling lips, accepts, bee a u ho 1
If she does not Bomo ouo el:;o 1
labor union among such mn- A
are so helplessly Impractical V
matters. But there is the h--
moral attitude towa the musical world;
while this may srtne you as a harsh or
extravagant statement, the fact remains
that the greatest of all eaohors has said
that "the laborer Is worthy of his hire."
Do you think He meant that our brothers
and sisters who minister to -ur Btilrlt.s In
that highest form of spiritual upllftnicnt
and exultation music should be paid in
thanks and appreciation, in smiles nnd
sweet words, in that way !)-? A young
girl musician recently ramo to me with n
tale of privation and suffering which would
wring your hearts: our food would choke
us If we could see behind the smiling faces
of some of our little sisters who sJng to
us after a club luncheon. But they are
brave and sing to us with smiling fucei
and we go homo well pleased with our
World of good fortune. Woim n mean j
well that . two-thirds of their sin is com
mitted through thoughtlessness, and It Is
because of this weakness that we rob mu
sicians of their dally bread. Wo take ad
vantage of their helplessness, their cunr
ambition. Wo have a justification ulways
ready at hand. If the musician plays or
sings for us. we say It will bring her fu
ture engagements and artistic recognition,
everybody says so, and It must bo so, but
dues It? Who of us follow her up to si'"A
actual results Justify nur hopeful reasB
Ing? - So we offer the yound musicians ii
opportunity
nothing but
she, poor soul,
neart, Dut
she knows
will.
There Is no
slrluns; they
In business
palling question of food and a roof arid
clothes, clothes suitable for elegant club
functions. To pay for these we give smiles
and iweet words of praise. We tell our
r'ends that the musician V. is art von ua lwr
services for love, and a chance of recogni
tion; If they remember her ut all, they fc !
that what has been given us should 1,
given them; their club Is as good a social
and artistic endorsement as ours, so the
"engngements" offered our protege arc ik-
ours payable In smiles and words. So
over and over again the musician glv-a
to us without real return tho only tiling
that stands between her and bitter poverty,
and we accept, because we do not think.
Let us have a labor union of clubs th.it
will hnvci no music or other professional
entertainment that wo can not decently
pay for.
