af Ixwe Avenue Presbyterian ihurch. For
tieth and Nlcholna streets, will preach hla
flrat termon aa shepherd of hla flock Sun
day morning. He and Mra. McGlffln and
their three children arrived In Omnha from
Holdrege Thursday afternoon. They were
met at tho Burlington depot by a delega
tion from the church. Their new home
will be, at 4107 Isard street.
Mr. VcGlffln' succeeds Rev. A. 8. C.
Clarr. D. D., who resigned the pulpit here
to accept a call to the Second Fresby
terlan church of Kvanaton last November.
Since that time the pulpit has been aun
jjlled by other mlnlstere. The church )a
in active working order and greats Ita new
paator and family with a jealous welcome.
Dr. McOiffln waa born near Wheeling,
W. Va., July 11. .1S8. He received hla
early education In C'aienovla seminary, N
graduating In VW. From that nchnol
i went to Hamilton college, jCllnton, N.
T., receiving hla degree In 19f. For two
yeara he waa the profesaor of oratory In
the Brooklyn polytechnic school,- going
then te the Auburn Theological seminary,
and continuing hla Instruction In oratory
for five yeara, graduating In 1W.
He had hla flrat church at New Haven,
Conn.; waa called from there to the church
of North Bast, Pa., "with a membership of
ISO- Hla health failed and he came to Ne
braska, accepting a call to the church of
Holdrege,- 1908. He found It with 100 mem
bers and left It with 200. He haa been an
ardent friend of Haatlnga college, which
haa conferred the degree of Doctor of
Divinity upon him. He not only becomes
the successor of Dr. Clarke In the pulpit,
but waa named aa chairman of the home
mlaalonary committee of the aynod of Ne
braska, which place waa held by Dr.
Clarke. Mr. McGlffln '.a considered one of
the atrongeat Presbyterian preachera of
the atate.
Mr. McGlffln's father and brother were
distinguished military men. His father
erved In both the Mexican and civil ware
and became a colonel. He also held aev
eral publlo offlcee. Hls brother, as stu
dents of current history know, waa en
gaged by the Chlneao government before
the outbreak of the Chinese-Japanese war
to aaaume an advisory control of the army.
A graduate of West Point, he knew the art
of war, and acvere crltlclam hue been
heaped on hla own country for not provid
ing him against the aeemlng necessity of
accepting a commission at the hands of a
foreign power. He advised against tho
war with Japan on the ground China was
111 prepared for It. But the dynasty waa
' mora powerful and the war ensued. In
' command of the Chinese forces at the bat-
tie of Talu, McGlffln waa wounded aeven
tlmea and the Japaneae triumphed. Pur
auant to a tradition and custom of the
heathen nation that a commander of a los
ing army ahould take hla own life, China
Importuned the American to commit sui
cide. He refused. He sailed for San Fran
cisco and underwent aurgical treatment
for hla terrible wounds. He was practically
hot to plecea. In the treatment at the
hospital he waa aaturated with opiates
Until the weakened body could not subsist
without them. From San Francisco he
went to New Tork, and the same treatment
waa continued in vain there. Ultimately
Ma Ufa did go out by hla own hand, but
It waa the hand, not of the etrong Com
mander McGlffln, it waa the hand of a
dying hero. And then China, believing Ita
legendary custom had been vindicated,
erected a tablet to the memory of the man
How to Stop
Plmplos
la Five Days You Can Get Rid of
- AM Skin Eruptions by the New
Calcium Sulphide- Wafers.
Trtal Vaokajr To row It Vent frsa.
Any man or woman gets awfully tlrod
going around with a pimply face day after
iay; and other people get awfully tired,
too, seeing them go around with facea full
of dlsguatlng pimples.
If you are one of tho unfortunates who
can't get away from your pimples and you
have tried aln-oat everything under heaven
to get rid of them, take a few of Stuart's
Calcium Wafers every day. Do that atead
. tly for a few days and In leas than a week
look at yourself in the mirror.
You .will then say that Stuart's Calcium
Wafers are a wonder In getting rid of akin
eruptions.
' These wonderful little workers contain
the most affective blood purifier ever dis
covered, calcium sulphide.
No matter what your trouble la, whether
pimples, blotchea. biackheada, rash, tetter,
ecsema or (cabby crusts, you can solemnly
depend upon Stuart's Calcium Wafers as
sever falling.
Stuart's Calcium Wafers have cured bolls
In three days and the worst cases of akin
dlaeaaea In a week. Every particle of Im
purity ta driven eut of your system com
pletely, never to return, and It is done with'
out deranging your system In the slightest
Most treatmenta for the blood and for
skin eruptions are miserably alow In their
results, and besides many of them are
polsonoua. Stuart's Calcium Wafers con
tain no polaon or drug of any kind; they
are absolutely harmless and yet do work
which cannot fall to aurprlae you.
Don't go around with a humiliating, dis
gusting maas of plmplea and biackheada
on your face. A face covered over with
these disgusting things makes people turn
away from you and breed failure In your
life work, Stop It. Read what an Iowa
man said when be woke up ona morning
and found be had a new race:
"By George, I never aaw anything like
1L There I've been for three years trying
to get rid of plmplea and biackheada and
guees I used everything under the sun.
uacd your Calcium Wafera for Just aeven
daye. Thla morning every bleaaed pimple Is
gone and I can't find a blackhead. I could
write you a volume or. manse, i am ao
grateful to you."
Juat aend ua your name and addreas In
full today and we will send you a trial
package of Stuart's Calcium Wafera free
to teat. After you have tried the sample
and been convinced that all we say la true
you will go to your nearest druggist and
get a i0o bos and be cured of your facial
trouble. They are In tablet form and a
trouble whatever to take. You go about
your work aa uaual ana mere you are
' cured and happy.
Seud ua your name and addresa today and

COST
OF
SUBMARINE
BOATS
Mr.
I.llley Babmlts Evidence to Show
Coatraot Frlces Too High.
WASHINGTON, March 21.-In support of
his assertion that more than 81,000,000 of un
necessary profit had been paid by the
United States government to the Electric
Boat company in the purchase of subma
rine torpedo boats, and that similar high
profits were contemplated ln pending con
tracts proposed to be swarded to that corn
company, Representative Lllley (Conn.) has
prepared for submission to the special sub
marine Investigation committee of the house
certain statements, comparisons and con
clusions. The statements Include extracts from the
hearings before the house naval affairs
committee In 1901 and 1902, when Rear Ad
mirals Melville, O'Nell and Bowles were
examined as to the cost of construction of
submarine torpedo boats. In his statement
Admiral O'Nell said that, from his own ob
servation, he thought 8100,000 each would
be a very liberal price for the Holland
boats. The contracts of which Mr, Lllley
complains call for a purchase price of $2X8,-
000 per boat.
Admiral Melville testified that the prob
able cost of the manufacture of a Holland
boat was between $50,000 and 870,000. This
statement was made In 1901, when the Hol
land was fifty-four feet long, and It waa
proposed to Increase thla length to eighty
feet. These new boats, said Admiral Mel
ville, would also have a greater storage
battery and would naturally cost more
money, probably as much as 190,000. Ad
miral Bowlea explained that the department
had estimated 8125,000 per boat aa a proper
appropriation, on account of probable coat
of conducting experiments to satisfy the
government of the expediency of the boats
before acceptance.
In a note accompanying these quotations
Mr. Lllley says:
"At the time Rear Admiral Bowles made
the foregoing statements he was chief of
the bureau of construction and repairs of
the Navy department, and necessarily had
much to do with the construction of craft
of thla character."
Continuing, Mr. Lllley says: "Therefore,
basing calculations upon the figures of Ad
miral Bowles, which he says would give a
handsome profit to the builders of the Hoi
land boats namely, 889,459 for a 21 J-ton boat
or 8745.45 per ton, It will readily be seen by
comparative statements that there has been
an, extra handsome profit of 11,519,738 since
the first Holland boat waa constructed in
March 1S99, and it Will" be seen that the ex
cessive profits to be made on the eight
boats, which It Is now proposed to buy
from the Electric Boat company, would bs
81,471,620.

Schoolmasters' Club Listens to Two
Addresses on the Subject.
ESSENTIAL PAST OF EDUCATION
rats Health and Visor Into Both Mind
and Body What Other Cities
Are Dolngr Along; This
Line.
Canon Robert B. H. Bell of the Church
of the Good Shepherd and Superintendent
W. M. Davidson of the Omaha schools
were the two leading speakers Friday night
before the Schoolmasters' club of Ne
braska at a banquet at the Toung Men's
Christian association building. Prominent
educators' from all over the state, Includ
ing J. I McBrlen, state superintendent of
Instruction, and several from other states,
were present. Superintendent C. G. Pearse
of the Milwaukee schools, formerly of
Omaha, was one of the guests. Nearly a
hundred educators were present and the
meeting was an enthusiastic one.
Give the lads and lasses wholesome play
and you will clear your city of crime in
a generation," declared Canon Robert B.
H. Bell, whose subject was "The Child at
Play," and bis address met with much
commendation from his hearers.
The most important Influence ln the
child's life Is play." said Canon Bell. "Play
Is his vocation, his all absorbing tempter.
He must play or be narrow ln soul as well J
in chest. He must lump ana laugn ana .
scream or he will become morose and sad
minded. His liver works better, his lungs
grow, and his head Is clearer through the
capers of the hour. Play is gleams ot sun
shine on a gloomy day. It Is the jam on
the bread of the hard and practical Issues
of life. Play moulds the child's desires
snd carves his destiny.
Cnrsed Is Bach City.
"Cursed is the city thst does not provide
playgrounds. Cursed Is the officer or tne
law who drives from the open, clean streets
and vacant lots a group of playing chil
dren for commerce's' sake, for commerce
should yield to the child, not the child to
commerce. Cursed is the law that makes
it a crime for laughing children to play
on the streets and provides no place for
childhood to express Itself."
The speaker declared that he could tell
a child's character by 'seeing him ln play.
by ..paying attention to the arames he
chooses, and that hard, wholesome play
ought to be encouraged, for It glvaa the
child a broader view of work, for play is
but another name for work. ,
Following the address by Canon Bell.
Prof. W. M. Davidaon, superintendent of
the Omaha schools, addreaaed the as
sembled Instructors on "The Mission 01
the Play Ground." his talk being largely
statistical, ths professor quoting figures to
show the amount of money spent by other
cities for buying and maintaining school
pla grounds.
Prof. Davidaon quoted figures 10 snow
that New Tork alone had spent 820,000,000
and Chicago within a period of the last
three years has expended $11,000,000 for
play grounds. Three years ago congress
appropriated 875,000 for the purchase of
play grounds for ths children of the na
tional capital and a year ago President
Roosevelt advocated the appropriation ot
8188,000 additional. Seven hundred and
forty-one thousand dollars was spent oy
San Francisco last year. 830,000 by Philadel
phia, 880,000 by penver, 113.000 by Bostcn,
$110,000 by Los Angeles. $100,000 by Roch
ester and $50,000 by New Haven for the pur
chase of play grounds and their equipment.
and Berkeley. Cel., Is now preparing a
bond issue ot $460,000 for play ground.
Vital Element , la Education.
"TWplay ground bears an Important and
vital' relation to the all around educational
development of our children a relation
which has been little understood snd but
little emphasised ln connection with the
publlo school work ot America." said Su
perintendent Davidson. "Even that relation
Is even now but dimly recognised and
vaguely underatood, atlll ths great impor
tance of play as an element in the physical,
social, moral and mental life of the child
Is forging to the front as one of the sduca-.
Uonal questions of the present day. second
to no question which now occupies theat
tentlon of the educational publlo."
The educator called attention to the new
Massachusetts law providing for public
play grounds in all cities ot mora than 10,
000 Inhabitants and declared that men of
wealth are beginning to believe that it is
ss much a mark of sense and of honor to
give a fully equipped play ground to a city
as to present It with a library or an en
dowed educational Institution.
In addition there were addresses by Car
rol G. Pearse, former superintendent of
the Omaha schools. State Superintendent

Fishworms Are Ripe Those who have
been doing preliminary spading In their
garden patches have made the discovery
that the fishworms have awakened from
their long winter nap and have crawled
up near the surface of the ec-th. They are
the long, round, wlggly kind that are so
tempting to the succulent chsnnel cat, and
the fishermen take it as a sign that the
worms are awake and ready for business
so early In the season. The game and fish
law, however, protects the worms until the
first of April, and that may account for
their boldness. Nemaha Republican.

The Editor Regrets Notice to owners of
vagrant town cows snd calves: The editor
regrets very much to state that his plls
of hay haa diminished to such an extent
that It will be impossible to feed a certain
black and white yearling calf, a big de
horned cow, red and white, and several
other enterprising cows, any longer. In
fact, the hay is "ail In" the cows and calf.
We are extremely sorry to make this an
nouncement, principally because the afore
said vagrants will go hungry. Our fence
is in bad condition, too, owing to the fact
that these animals havs crawled through,
jumped over and rode It down repeatedly.
We will have to buy baled hay from now
on and really we must keep it tn tlie barn,
owing to its great cost. Wa believe these
animals have got their share of our hay,
ao no onej can complain that we have not
done our duty by them. Frequently the
dog loosened! up their hides and now and
then the boys have used the pitchfork so
they would be able to hold more. The hay
is gone anyway and our own stock will

have obeyed Its mandates, but the ordi
