The acceptance of Nebraska's invitation
to hold the next annual convention of the
National Women's Christian Temperance
union In Omaha has placed a big responsi
bility upon the shoulders of the women of
the state as well as of Omaha. The con
vention Is big; one of the largest gatherings
of women held In this country. Its voting
strength averaslng 1.000. and besides the
delegates hundreds of other visiting women
and men also attend Its session. Naturally
such a meeting does not wane for places
of entertainment, nnd there are always
several invitations from the larger cities
with heated contests for tho award.
Omaha women have been trying to get
the convention for three years, but had
hardly expected recognition before 1M0, be'
cause the last two meetings have been held
In the middle west and Milwaukee had i
strong claim. Mrs. Stevens, national presi
dent, and some of the other national off!

weeks ago and Mrs. Whltmore had been
visiting in New York City and In Dunkirk,
N. Y., as the guest of Mrs. Henrietta Scott,
and In Tipton, Ind., where Miss Eugenie
Whltmore Is visiting Mrs. Shirk.
Mr. and Mrs. H. S. Weller are at the Col

The comparative severity with which the
changing fashions In headgear aro accepted
Inclines one to believe that the general
public has cultivated its bump of philoso
phy at the expense of Its qense of humor.
To be sure, there la always a little mild
protest, a good natured ridicule when a
radical change occurs In the millinery of
fashion, but even that soon dies out. The
woman who Insisted that she never would
no, never gives another illustration of the
"first endure, then pity, then embrace"
formula and makes up for lost time by
being a bit more radical than her sisters
In her acceptance rf the new mode.

All of which is not a prelude to the asser
tion that the hats of the new season are
hideous. Oni the contrary, they are more
charming hats than usual, but some of
them are amusing, and many of them are
extreme.
But all of the autumn millinery is not
calculated to Increase the fund of public
gayety, and even the most spectacular of
the new hats when well worn by the right
woman has Its merits. Generally speaking,
the hats favored in Paris are bigger than
ever, enormousy wide of brim, low and
large of crown, guiltless of bandeau, and
often but slightly ti'lmmed, though there
are plenty of exceptions to this last rule.

more convincing than
official reports of the active work being
done in Nebraska for temperance by the
unions. At that time Mrs. Stevens sug
gested that If an Invitation came from the
entire state to the Denver meeting It would
probably be accepted. The invitation was
sent and was seconded by all the women's
organisations of Omaha, the Commercial
club, Ministerial union and other assocla
tlons of men.
The entertainment of such a gathering
Is a big undertaking, however, and a local
committee will be formed soon to make the
preliminary arrangements.
Both the Omaha and Frances Wlllard
Unions held educational meetings Wednes
day afternoon, the former at the home of
Mrs. John Dale in the Hanscom Park dis
trict, and the latter at the home of Mrs.
George Covell, In Kountie Place. Both
programs were" followed by social hours.
The unions have grown In membership and
strength during the last year and there Is
a growing sentiment to hold the educational
meetings In different parts of the city. In
the homes of members, and so to work out
On the neighborhood plan.
Suffragists Reorganise.
The Omaha Equality club Is being reor
ganised and will contribute Its part to the
treasury of the Nebraska Woman Suffrage
association at its annual convention to be
held at Lincoln November S and (. Mrs,
Mary O. Andrews, 3431 Hawthorn avenue,
Is a delegate from the state and Is acting
as temporary treasurer. The annual mem
bershlp fee of 60 cents will be continued
and will be received by Mrs. Andrews from
all former or new members. . For the pres
ent, at least, the Omaha association will be
auxiliary to the state and will not Actively
carry the work of the association. Thl
plan Is deemed advisable, as both the
Woman's club and the Women's Christian
Temperance union are doing the same work
aa the suffrage association, and local
women are too busy to duplicate their
work.
Rev. Anna Howard Shaw, president of the
National Woman Suffrage association, will
attend the Lincoln meeting next week, and
if It can be arranged, she may speak In
Omaha. Miss Shaw Is recognized as one
of the most brilliant women on the lecture
platform, and having Just returned from
tour of Europe, where she attended the
International Council of Women and in
vestlgated the conditions of women In all
the countries, she will have much to tell

Eugene M. Bellar Addresses German
Voters in Native Tongue.
CAMPAIGN ISSUES DISCUSSED
Republican Meetings flrheduled for
Friday, Saturday and Sunday
Bis; Roll to Bet on Taft's
Election.
Sixty German-Americans were out last
night to hear Kugene M. Bellar of Chicago.
The fact that the speech was advertised
as in the German tongue restricted the
crowd to the Germans almost exclusively.
The various local candidates, headed hy
A. W. Jefferls, were present and all made
short addresses. Wappleh, Koutsky, Best,
Harvey and Silas A. Barton all had some
thing to say on the merits of their candi
dacy and the party they represented.
The speaker of the evening said that he
was one of the volunteer speakers and had
been on the road for five weeks making
German Kpeeches dally and was pretty
tired. He spent much time in explaining
the tariff and the result of the democratic
experiments under Cleveland's administra
tion which resulted In hard times In which
he had many personal experiences in Chi
cago and Milwaukee. He then took up the
promises of Bryanlsm, allowing how tho
paramount Issues hud changed regularly
from year to year as soon as they became
the liust shop worn, lln said lie had no
doubt that ubout the next great Issue of
the party would be a me-ns of providing
airships for each hnnil of a family as a
substitute for the government ownership
of railroads.
Bryan had a fine, plausible statement
of the need and as good a story of the
cure as any patent medicine fakir, but the
trouble was bound to follow with the
taking. We have had plenty of airships
which made a fair start, but most of them
met with considerable difficulty in alight
ing.
He said the principles of the democrats
had changed so wonderfully since Jefferson
that that rugged patriot would never recog
r.'xe his party. On one point the party
favors stHte rights and in tlie next breath
demands a federal supervision of private
business such us would put the hardest
headed whig of the olden days to shams.
The usual democratic picket was In evi
dence, but when he was invited to come
forward and make a speech ho declined and
left the hall. His interruptions were taken
good r.aturedly as a tiling characterlsllj
of tlie democratic party that could not be
helped.
o Labor Meeting.
Kxhaustive Inquiry yesterday failed to
show w in to there had. been any meeting of
the employed or unemployed laborers
Wednesday ni(,ht to whom were credited
certain r.-solutlons Ik tho World-Herald
signed "Committee." No ono could be
found who knew of a call for a laborer's
mass meeting. No one saw any laborers
In a mans meeting. No laborer could bn
found who knew anything of thu origin
of tlie resolutions. Suspicion points to
Jerry Howard alone as ths able repre
sentative of the unemployed. The other
wing, the employed laborer. Is the person
who wrote the article as it appears. These
two adopted the resolution unanimously and
signed themselves tiie full "committee."
The object i a vain hope of offsetting the
effect of the big successes of A. W. Jef
ferls and George L. Sheldon at tho pack
ing houses and the South Omaha Live Stock
exchange.
Mad ta Bet on Taft.
According to Jay I.averty and other
prominent live stock commisalon men, a
great wad of Taft money arrived at ths
exchange yesterday In the pockets of an
Idaho sheepman. He had plenty of money,
and it was all his own. It was money ha
mado under republican prosperity. Theis
was no bluster about It. He had tlie money
right In his hands and promised to cover
any bet on general results up to flO.OuO. In
less than ten minutes he hsd all ths dem.
ocrats up a tree looking on wistfully, but
not daring to wager any large amount.
After much coaxing ha placed $200 In small
bets on the results, and the democratic
sporting blood was cooled down below the
normal. Since the big meeting at Madison
Square, Wednesday night, republican stock
has risen like a rocket. Bets are confined
almost entirely to the state, whether Bryan
will carry Nebraska or not. Deluded dem
ocrats are still risking a little money on
that score.
Plattsmonth Man Captured.
Chief John Briggs arrested Charles
Hlckson of Flattsmouth last night. He
was taken off the train by the chief nt
o'clock. It is reported that the man
Is charged with assault In Plattsmouth
which may develops Into a murder
charge. He Is said to have got Into a
fight and struck a man. Inflicting seri
ous, If not fatal, Injury. The police in
South Omaha were warned that Hlckson
was trying to make his escape, but none
of the details of his alleged crime were
known to the police last night.
Dinner for King's Daughters.
Mrs. William Berry, assisted by the
women of the third division of the Pres
byterian King's Daughters, entertained
nearly 150 guests at dinner last even
ing at the residence of Mrs. Berry. Tlie
object wax to raise funds for tho char

was a most pronounced success In every
way. The women worked for. the enter

bringing it to so happy a conclusion.
