Herbert Knox Smith of Washington, D. C, commissioner of corporations, and Mrs. Smith left Omaha for their home after spending Sunday and Monday in Omaha, where Mrs. Smith's father, former Senator C. H. Dietrich, Is ill at the Methodist hos pital. Mrs. Dietrich, who came from Has tings with Mr. and Mrs. Smith, is still In the city and expccLa to remain for a day or two. There Is very little change In Mr. Die trich' condition. At the hospital. It is said, he remains about the same, although a day or two ago there was a slight change for the better. The departure of the daughter from the sick man's bedside leads to the belief the senator has a chance of recovery.

PANIC AT THE PALACE Cloaluar of the Gates at 3 - O'clock Castes Riot in TVhlcn Several nre Injnred Arrangements for Funeral. BRUSSELS, Dec. 21. Baroness Vaushan, whom Leopold made his queen in fact, 11 not In name, quietly left Belgium today, her reign ended, her power collupsed, ac cepting the hlrtt of the government thru If she did not depart voluntarily she would te expelled from the country" The baroness packed up those magnlfl :ent furnishings of her chateau, which were the personal gifts of King Leopold, and forwurded thern across the frontier. She herself took a train for Franco. To the Belgians this good-looking young woman, with brovin hair and gleaming black eyes, was always a great mystery, but they accepted her like they have the other whims of the determined, and self willed king. They have thought for years of her residence beside the king's, of the famous floral bridge Unking the two domi ciles. They have discussed with uncon cern her absolute dominion over the king's private Ufa. Yet, now, with the king dead, they have been driven to deep resentmeM that, as the king's .body was borne through tha streets and was lying In state at tne palace, her photograph was exhibited and sold in the Brussels thoroughfares and her name shouted out by hawkers as "Caro line, the queen." Ia spite of ths dispatches from Italy and other countries asserting that King Leo pold and Baroneas Vaughan had been mar ried according to the rites of the churoh. the king's personal friends persist In their disbelief of this, while they characterise the stories of a civil unhm as pure non sense.

The" semi-official Twentieth Century points out that the Belgian code stipulates that the rightsof succession to the throne pass to direct descendants of legitimate birth. If there was a civil marriage in Italy, It might create potential rights, but, it Is argued, the absence of all records, all publication of such a ceremony, and espe cially the fact that Leopold never pro claimed Baroness Vaughan his legitimate wife, effectually disposes of the question. Prince Albert's happy plan to ri-unlto the eeparated family was fulfilled today. As Baroness Vaughan parsed out forever from Bolglan life, Princess Louise triumphantly entered the city and was officially greeted at the station and acclaimed by the peo ple. She was conducted with royal honors to the Chateau Belvedere, which hunca fprth will be her official home. Panic nt the Palace. Again today a vaat crowd visited th. body of the late king.

Jontz, secretary of the local Associated Charities, has Inaugurated a system of Christmas giving that deserves the attention and co-operation of all In terested In restoring to the Christmas gift something more of its real significance, With the Christmas day reunion, an In centive to all coming to the attention of the organization to do their best for their families and themselves, Miss Jontz has dcslsed a plan that will enable unfortunate parents to provide Christmas gifts for their children and that will prolong the child's confidence In his parents and spare him the painful consciousness that his gifts are a charity. Many things, toys and useful things, have been sent to tho As sociated Charities to be given to children who are likely to be overlooked and It is Miss Jontz's plan to send these gifts to the homes and let the parents give them to their children. By this plan the pleas ure Is twofold and Christina's Is cele brated In the home. It Is Miss Jontz's theory that this plan will stimulate par ents to do their best for their children and will avert the child's taking It for granted that others than those to whom he should look for It, will provide him with Christmas gifts. It Is beginning to be doubted by those who have had most experience whether wholesale Christmas giving among children Is In reality a kind ness. In many cases this is the child's first Introduction to charity and learning that It comes so easily ho is lncouraged to make less effort for himself when It comes to the substantial things. "Lucretla Borgia Is not dead. She la presiding over the American kitchen," says Dr. Harvey W. Wiley, chief of the' bureau of chemistry of the Department of Agri culture. "It Is the duty of every woman, whether she Is a housewife or not, to in form herself on the laws of hygiene. The average Icebox Is a charnel house which spreads death, and too many housekeepers allow uncleanllness to prevail In their kitchens. They'd rather pick out a Beet hoven sonata, read an Ibsen play, or mem orize a bridge rule than trace a ptomaine to its lair and destroy It. ' If th.-y will personally supervise their marketing and lardeYs, the present as well as the" future citizen will be more .useful to the commun ity. - Too many households do not know what they are being served.

One of the unusual programs of the win ter has been arranged by the Ideal club of Council Bluffs. It la a study and com parison of the women of the Bible and the women of history.

Mark Twain Hedges on Euchre Game Does Not Say Whether or Not He Will Accept Challenge of Mayor Gonter.
