DR. MAYHARD MAKES AN ADDRESS Sara If Omaha Raises $200,000 In Kest Sixty Days He Can Guaran tee fllOO.OOO Iron the Kal. Vli-p President If. H. Maynard of the T'nlversity of Omaha mado an address be fore the OniAh.i MlnlNterial union Monday morning. Hie. result pf which was that the. union, by an unanimous vote, ' extended a hearty approval of the enterprise and prom ised Its cu-oprratlon. The lettor from the Omaha Typographical union, asking; the Ministerial union to give Its endorsement tp the "union", label was discussed. U was finally decided that the request was not within the scope of action of Hie Ministerial union and that the union had no power to take special cognizance of It. 'The Ministerial union did desire to go D!i record as being the friend of labor and all efforts for the betterment of the conditions of laboring men, but Its functions were not such as to permit the union to mako the endorsement requested. The co-operation of the Ministerial union was promised In the missionary meetings to be held In Omaha March 25 and 26. Dr. Maynnrd of the I'nlvrrslty of Omaha In his brief address upon that institution said . 1)1 r'rt:. "While the Omaha university Is a con ception, It Is now very near a realization. It la an institution that will he far-reaching in Its influence. It cannot be created In a day, nor would we have It s It Is lo be absolutely without ecclesiastical con liol. It Is to be a university In the broad est sense of the word, with Its equipment of colleges of the liberal art and every fea turo of the most advanced Ideas of the highest types of libera; education. It Is not to be in conflict with any existing insti tutions in Omaha or vicinity, but Is simply to become a great Protestant university, to which other institutions may become the feeders. , "If we go about it In Omaha to raise 1200.000 within tho next sixty days I have positive assurances that endowments of another Mo.ouo will be added, and we can begin work on some of the new buildings this jrwr. I'llvat) individuals will also put up luiil cr"' colleges. V have reason to feel that jvu shall receive a part of the iii.wi or I3,)0.0U0 that Mr. Rockefeller ' has ti-t aside ror university extension. t believe, too, that since Mr. Carnegie has gone Into the college endowment business that wa shall get help from him. I dare not divulge the hopeful result of a confer ence I had recently with the friends of edu cation , III New York. I believe that the University of Omaha Is destined to become one of tlte greatest Institutions of learning In th tountry. It has ceased to be a Iream or a vision, but is rapidly approach ing the stage of an absolute reality." Early Decision in Connor Case sa i J Ruling by Judge Leslie in Suit Over Will Looked For in a Few Days. A decision on the Connor will case may be looked for earlier than was expected. County Judge Leslie intimated Monday morning that he would be ready to decide the case toward the end rX the week. The attorneys Interested on either side believe th verdict will be In accord with their respective desires, but except for them no person who followed the case will hazard an opinion as to Its decision.
