THE BEE: OMAHA. WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 8. lpnn. i .1 Aw?J Ji No eace for tHe Warring' World ADMIRAL, SIR EDWARD SEYMOUR lilt UST now, while the King and Kaiser are eyeing each other suspi iously, while feverishly preparing for war and denying its possi bility (just as Japan did), any expression from one of their chief fighters is of tremendous moment. In the Holiday COSMOPOLITAN Admiral Seymour discusses the problem in all its possibilities and prospects, incidentally, throwing; new light on the blunder of Dreadnought construction itsMimited capacity, docking- demands, heavy salvage, etc., and between the submarine below and the airship above, he sees the big shipl doom. He treats the development of the superior British Navy from its establishment in the Dutch and French wars'to its present jeopardized su premacy. ' He dismisses the aeroplane, but sees dire possibilities in the Zeppelin Dreadnought of the air. With great acumen he goes into the question of disarmament, etc., in the light of "human nature and its innate savagery," and thinks one more great war will not bring universal peace. This is an article every one should read who keeps in touch with the liistory-naking crises of the world, and is only one of the many exceptional articles which make Holi day Cosmopolitan the leader of the season.

Fay Mill, talked of prison condi tion before the Industrial conference of the Woman'! club Monday afternoon and advocated a number of theories which, he aid. have been successfully worked out tn other statea. Mr. Mills especially ad vocated the parole system and. expressed the opinion that In a few yers"Mt would take many convicts out of the peniten tiaries of the country. He believes In the "golden rule" system employed In seme cf the eastern cities aad advocates kind ness as a substitute for brutality and gen eral Inefficiency, which he claims Is the general order among Jail and prison at tendants. He especially criticised the prison chaplains as superannuated. Ineffi cient and even insincere, and advocated that manly, energetic 'men be placed In that office and not persona who had a '"pull" and nee Jed the position. He also criticised the lack of employment or the libelees trades taught prisoners as a role, nd advocated that they be taught some useful trade that they might tarn to ac count when they were discharged. Every yea interest has Increased In the work of the as.-ociation promoting play and playgrounds for the children cf this country, and the mee'.lng next June prom ires to be much larger than those of the fast.

Mrs. William Heller and Miss EUth Patrick. General Orenvllle M. Dodge of Council Bluffs was the speaker of the .afternoon, giving a reminiscent talk of his experiences on the western plains. A musical program was given by Mrs. N. P. Dodge, Jr., who played a violin solo. Miss Kdith Patrick contrlb ' utlng a piano solo and Miss Alice Win spear a vocal solo. Mrs. Montgomery and Mrs. Thomas Metcalf of Council Bluffs were guests of the afternoon. Jacob Rils has Issued the following Christmas wish: "So long aa there la a child in our land who tolls In shop or tenement when he should be out at play, whose school Is without a playground and whose out-ef-doera ia bounded by the gut ters of the public street, with never tree or shrub or flower, so long the masses will hate the classes, the policeman be to the boy an enemy Instead of a friend, and the republic ias not had a square deal. Te give a boy back his childhood is more than Justice and common sense It ts sane government. This Is my Christmas wish for your rsuse and for us all, that abundant com mon sense may corns with ths season of gooci will." If a bride Is to be married In a travel ing dreem the maid of honor, should wear a light thin silk, or other dressy frock. Both may carry bouquets and vresr hats. The bride's mother will find a velvet cr heavy silk or light cloth dress smart. choosing gray or heliotrope for the color. The brother who gives .his sister awsy should have a frock coat, double brewated waistcoat, light striped trousers, and white asoot tie. The bridegroom and best man wear the sams style clothes.

At ths tabls ths bride's mother sits on the right ef the bridegroom, and his father at the left of the bride. It Is perfectly proper to have music during ths breakfast, and It would, be well to have champagne, even though ths girl's family do not drink It. Their glasses are filled and they make a pretence of taking It. On entering the church the maid ef honor precedes the bride, following her, with the best man, en leaving. Some mem ber of the bride's family must meet ths maid of honor at the station when she ar rives. It would not be good form for the best man to be asked to do so. tie acts only for the bridegroom. If, for any res son, none of the family can go to the train, an intimate friend should be asktd to do to. Milk Ordinance Upheld by Troup Another Step in the HoTtment for fnre Llilk Gsiatd, Bo Ca&ntll Ferc.j Affirm. Winter Care of Plants. Now thst the house reating has com menced, it should be borne in mind that house plants will require extra care if they are expected to flourish. Palms, rjbt-er plants, etc.. should have their leaves gently sponged quite frequently with equal parts rt milk and lukewarm water or soapsuds during ths winter. Afterward they may be watered. Fach leaf must be supported by ths hand while being cleansed. Ths best way to water plants during cjli weather Is to place the pets In a ve-sl containing mater coming an Inch atovt the pots. This should be dons every two or three days for t-vo hours. Efforts of fifty Omaha dairymen and milk dealers ts defeat ths milk-sales ordi nances were kt.oeked ints the proverbial cocked hat by Judge Troup in dls'rict court. The court refused to gran, the In junction prayed for by Anton Grohbeck and ferty-nina other dsalers against the city of Omaha and Health Commissioner Cennell front enforcing the ordinances. Inasmuch aa ns prsof as offered In the hearing sf the case that Dr. Connell has a financial Interest, as was charged, in a pasteuria.ng company, and because of the way the decision went. Dr. Cenneli's friends are hailing ths ruling ss a big personal victory for him, and as another step forward In the fight for purs milk in Omaha. The srdinaneea, said the petition for in junction, were unconstitutional, contrary ts public policy and class legislation. On no point did ths court agree with ths petitioners.

LOO AX, la., Dec. 7. (Special. )-The pre liminary hearing for Henry Mariey, Uuy Marlay and Ira Srundridge, heid for the alleged offense ef an assault upon Mrs. Mariey with Intent to commit murder, was postponed this morning until December 2. Ths three man are new In Jail at Loan.

TTlth her arm hanging by a few shreds of flesh, she fled to a neighbors, vihere a surgeon was called ar.d her arm amputated, and the effi-ere notified at both Logan and Missouri Valley. Henry Mariey and Ira Brundrldge admit they heard the shot fired, but affirm that (hey were not in ths room when the shoot ing occurred, 'and consequently did not see who shot Mrs. Mariey. Though Guy Maney. the stepson, told the officers of Missouri Valley when first arreted and Censtabls reckenpaugh when bremght to Logan, that h knew absolutely nothing aoout the shooting of his stepmother, yet the young man has since admitted to Sheriff Rock and Attorney Smith that a shotgun na i accidentally discharged while in his hands Thursday afternoon, but he emphatically asserts that his stepmother was neither In the room r.or In sight when the accident occurred. Notrf ithstanding the alleged Innocence on the part of the three men in jail, Sheriff Rook and Attorney Smith, after a personal Investigation, say that Mrs. Marley's story is corroborated In that the household furni ture and dishes are not only broken to pieces In the Mariey house, but that the wall of the hsuee Is ..il spattered with bleed an. shreds of fieut and tern pieces sf eleth'.ng and punctured with shot evi dently fired at elsss range, as asserted by Mra. Marlay. It is also alleged that Mr. Mariey Is a mason by trade, but that he spends his earnings In dissipation ar.d that his wife has for seme time supported ths family at hard work ever the washboard and that shs has often been compelled to take the children and gs -to the neighbors for protection.

The major is seriously thinking of start ing out on his 'physical test" hike afoot. Just to escape the book agents for a few days.
