"Boosters' Choir"
Getting in Trim
Three Directors Are Chosen to Lead
Other Son; Birds No
Long Hair,
Paul Beaton, Pen Gallagher and N. J.
IlnhUng are functioning in a new role,
fvtieee three prominent members of the
Commercial club have been appointed
directors of a picked chorus of twenty
voices known as the "Bookers Choir,"
which will hold forth on "Boosters' Night"
at the Auditorium.
There are three directors because three
are needed. Rumor that the directorate la
showing a tendenoy to wear long hair,
frock coats or other appanages of mascu
line musical art Is declared to be false.
Although arrangements for supplies have
not yet been announced by the commissary
committee, already those who were donors
to the "good fellowship dinner" in March
are being heard from and they want to do
the same thing again, realising that to
occupy s place In the list of contributors
to Boosters' night s a good advertisement.
An even better dinner ia promised than the
last, as the committee learned a whole lot
from experience.
Vigorous views on conditions of the drug
trade marked the first day of tho con
vention of the Nebraska rUate Pharma
ceutical association. Delegates heard Pres
ident D. J. Fink of Holdrrge condemn pro
prietary medicines masquerading as "eth
ical" which are nothing, according to the
speaker, bi patent medicines. Delegates,
too, heard denunciation of lliiuor selling by
druggists and heard defects In the national
drug law pointed out by Prof ,C. S. N.
HallHbcrg of Chicago.
The convention got down to brass tacks
Thursday. Preliminary pleasantries had
been cleared away the night before and
business became the order of the day. First
came the annual address by President
Fink. s
After an introduction dealing with ths
history ot the association, President Fink
said:
"One of the evils which ths drug trade
haa to contend with la the so-called 'ele
gant pharmaceuticals,' with a copyrighted
name and a label has a ready-made diag
nosis, but whose formula you do not know.
These should ba classed where they belong
with patent medicines.
"Together with patent medicines these
elegant pharmaceuticals' should be bought
sparingly, Just to supply the demand and
should bs sold without recomendation,
"As to the dispensing physician there has
been so much talk with so little real result,
there seems not much mors to say. Some of
our medical friends presume upon their
medical dlplomar to be doctor, dentist,
pharmacist, and Xord only knows what.
"Physicians Justly complain of druggist,
refilling prescriptions without order. The
remedy is that the prescription should be
come tho property of ths pharmacist by
law."
President Fink also talked of the increas
ing growth of Itinerant medical vendors,
saying that In Iowa figures showed there
are three of these working In every county.
llaUsberg on For Medicine,
Prof. Hallsberg spoke in the morning
Instead of the afternoon because B. L.
Mains, Nebraska tate food commissioner,
who was billed for an address, did not ap
pear. Prof. Hallsberg is one of the most
eminent men 'in pharmacy In the country.
Me is a resident of Chicago and Is editor
of the American Pharmaceutical associa
tion "Bulletin."
Prof. Hallsberg showed how defective
the national food and drug law haa been
because of the exception allowed at the
demand of manufacturera that drugs "In'
tended for mechanical uses" need not be
chemically pure.
"The great trouble haa been," said the
speaker," that state laws have been pat
terned after the national act, and when
argument against this exception is begun
legislators shake their heads and utter
twaddle to the effect, 'What Is good
enough for Uncle gammy Is good enough
for us.' "
Prof. Hallsberg gave Illustration after
illustration as to how this exception has
been utilised to adulterate drugs not used
In the arts but for medical purposes. .
. Liquor selling by druggists came up at
ths afternoon session' in the round table
vigorously led by A. V. Pearas of Fair
bury. He and other speakers led an on
slaught against the practise, or more
strictly ths abuses ot ths practise and
urged that the convention do Us utmost
to discourage sales of liquor not honestly
intended lor medicinal purposes, earlier
closing was another theme speakers urged
upon delegates.
No politics has yet crept into the con
vention though many men declared that
there would be a lively fight for the
presidency the ensuing year. But only one
man ia yet talked of for the place. This
is George B. Chrlstoff of Norfolk, whose
friends are active in his behalf.
Women delegates attended the Boyd
theater during the afternoon. The main
social event of the convention is a dinner
and ball this evening at the Home hotel.
Why Lady Brought
Injunction Suit
Director Fairfield Explains Action of
Late Secretary of Common
wealth Company.
"With reference to the injunction suit
brought by Van B. Lady to restrain the
directors ot the Commonwealth Life Insur
ance company from 'Interfering' with him,
I have only to ray that it s chief character
istic Is a flavor of amusing Impudence in
that It represents an effort on the part of
ft single director to control the discretion
of the other seven," says Mr. K. M. Fair
field. "Mr. Lady waa secretary of the
company up to June 1, but on that data the
directors removed him from office, because
they, had for some time been dissatisfied
with hla work and were convinced of hla
unfitness for the position. This action
was considered necessary In order to safe
guard the interests of the stockholders and
It need scarcely be said that the directors
nui oniy aciea in good raitn but were
wholly within their authority. In styling
himself manager of the company Mr. Lady
has assumed a title and authority which
he never had.
A stockholders' meeting has already
been called to consider the matter of the
proposed merger with the ltoyal Indemnity
company, and since the stockholders possess
ultimate authority In the premises any
talk of 'conspiracy to their prejudice is
rot."

Mayor Dahlman Delivers Address and
Dan Kltlrn Answers.
Delegates to the convention and all
other victors In ths city in con
nectlon with ths meeting were ten
dered a reception and enterttain
ment last night at the Commercial club.
Nearly 200 were present, representing every
important town and city in the state. The
reception was given as a welcome on the
part ot the citizens ot Omaha and in an
address of welcome Mayor Dahlman turned
over the key to tb City.
With Mayor Dahlman and Dan KUlen ot
Adams as the first two speakers on
program, for ths few minutes It appei
aa if the leading question was to bs on
things political. Ths mayor had spoken
scarcely a dozen words before he referred
to his candidacy for governor and how he
was going to defeat the Adams man. Mr.
Killen replied in kind, saying It was "char
acteristic of the mayor's party to bs very
optimistic before results," with special
emphasis on the "before." C. R. Sherman,
third speaker, said; "Rather than a meet
ing ot harmless pharmacists. It looks as it
this Is a coming out party for gubernatorial
candidates."
Mayor Dahlman extended the visitors a
hsarty welcome on behalf ot the city and
Its citizens. He said In part: "The citizens
ot the city of Omaha have authorized me,
as their chief executive, to welcome visitors
to our great city, and the welcome comes
from the bottom of their hearts. They have
authorized ms to turn over to you ths key
to our city, and I do so, knowing that it
will be returned without stain and without
blemish. I know the committee in charge
will show you a royal good time."
Dan Killen responded to the welcome,
thanking the mayor tor his hearty and
sincere words of welcome. He named over
a few ot the reasons why visitors Ilk to
come to Omaha. First, because they are
invariably given a cordial reception.
Second, because the city ia representative
ot the greatest men and the greatest busi
ness industries of the west,
"In your city is representated every line
of business," said Mr Killen. "Tour whole
sal business houses are able to meet every
demand mod upon them, and your In
stitution of learning, your churches snd
your hospitals, are without parallel west
of ths Mississippi."
C. H. Sherman spoke for the Omaha
members of the association. He seconded
ths welcome ot the mayor and expressed
his pleasure at one more seeing the
member of the association in Omaha. An
Impromptu talk was made by Prof. C. 8. N.
Hallberg, of Chicago, who compared Oma
ha of today with Omaha when he was last
here, about fifteen years ago. Then the
streets looked ragged and were poorly kept
up, be said, and now they are not excelled
even by those of Chicago. Hs closed by
congratulating Omaha upon Its prosperity.
Following the program cam the recep
tion. Punch and ice cream was served and
ths remainder of the svsnlng spent la get
ting acquainted.

Present arms! Starting with this com
mand, Captain Catvln Davis of Company II
of the Omaha High school cadet reaimcnt
carried his company through the 1910 an
nual competitive drill ot the high school to
first place for th best military drill out
ot nine competing companies, at Fort
Omaha yesterday.
Major George Gelb was awarded the
Davidson silver trophy tor having the best
drill combined with th best record made
at th annual encampment at Harlan this
year. The Third battalion performed the
best drilling on the grounds on a percentage
basis, but its record at ths camp waa not
as good as that of the lads of tbe First,
and the cup did not go to it.
In th Individual drill five boys were
entered from each company, making a total
of forty-five boys competing to show who
eould keep th clearest head and go through
all of tb many commands fired. . Norman
Potter of Company I, one ot the smallest
youths in the entire regiment, proved him
self to be the best driller ot them all In
spit of bis size, and won the gold medal
for first place and th flag presented by
the .United States Daughters of the War of
1811. Potter la a corporal and a member ot
the sophomore class. Quartermaster Ser
geant Paul Bradley of Company F won
second medal and First Sergeant Eml Wll
rodt ot Company F won the silver medal
for third place. Wllrodt Is a junior, but
Bradley, although he has only been at tho
high school three and a half years, will
graduate Friday with th class of 1910.
Company II, Yosng,
Th lads of H company are especially
proud of themselves in winning first
honors, the right to carry the regimental
colors next year and to hold the silver
trophy cup which goes to th winning
company, - because this year is only the
second one In which th company has
been in existence. It was formed last
year by Commander Oury, a short time
before ho handed over the command ot th
high school cadets to Lieutenant Haskell,
who now has it. It was placed under
the command ot Joseph Noone as cap
tain. Last year it took fourth place in
competition. Miss Beulah Besslra is sponsor
ot the company this year.
Company C merely1 added another honor
to its list by its second place. The com
pany has taken mora firsts and seconds
In the annual competitive drills than any
other company In the organization. Miss
Nellie Elgutter Is sponsor of the company
and Milton Weeks the captain.
Company I is justly proud of tbe record
it made yesterday, as it took not only
third plac out of nine places, but had
the winner of the Individual competition
as ft representatv of that comoanv it
a new organization thl,ear. It surprised
all i the companies when It stepped In
ahead ot almost all , tb ones who had
laughed at It the whole year. Besides
being, a new company, I -company is the
refuge ot what are known as the "babies,"
the smallest boys. Captain Robert lie
Cague has the distinction of having de
clined to appoint any young lady from ths
many high school lassies to act as
sponsor, even If all tb other companies
had sponsors.
Little Boys Spring Surprise,
All the companies which managed to
take the first three places in the drill
were of the Third batallion, that .com
manded by Major Charles Hoffert. and
all three of them are composed of th
small boys of the regiment. From the re
sults of the event it appears that the little
ones were able to march themselves mtr
correctly even though they had to stretch
considerably to make their legs cover a
regulation step.
Th contest betwen the three batalllons
followed that ot the companies and con
slated of movements that the cadets had
practiced while at camp. Th First bat
talion, consisting of Companies A, F and
B, won out, their credit marks obtained
at camp being th mean ot their salva
tlon. Major Gelb 1b th commander of the
battalion and Miss Ruth Sheldon the
sponsor.
After th drills were all over th flags
and cups and medals won by th boys
were presented by Lieutenant Haskell and
Prof. Graff, principal of th Jilgti school.
Th lost event of ths afternoon was a
dress parade and retreat by the high
school regiment, in which the signal gun
of th fort played an important part
Then came the rush tor th cars and the
celebrating of each company at some drug
store.
