Seek Money for the

fity Attorney Saya He Cannot See
Where an Emergency Eiiiti at
Tb-ii Time.
If the city council deslree to corer tha
city hall building and Its contents with in
surance to tha amount of $230,000. it will
have ta look to other sources than an
emergency ordinance to get money to pay
he premium of V ' Purh opinion hag
been reached by , City Attorney Rlne, to
whom . wnj referred' a resolution, directing
that an emergency ordinance be passed.
According, to Rlne. the premium will
have to be paid out of tha city hall main
tenance) fund . or some similar fund, else
there will be no insurance written this
year. Rlne states that under no condition
can h aea the request from an emergency
angle.
Recently bida war aaked for tha fur
nishing of Insurance. The first advertise
ment brought no response, but a second
one developed five agents who were willing
to write one-fifth the amount at the rate
of tXTiO tor a five-year contract.
The contract was awarded to the five.
who are paid to be a committee appointed
by tha koal agents, and who are to ap

Y.W.C.A.Building Served
a Double Useful Purpose
By Mri. Harriet A. Dahlman.
The Young Women's Christian as
sociation building has certainly
served a double purpose and btten an
o.i.Wc-t le son to every one. Its
beauty Is gradually transforming
one of the most unsightly localities
In the heart of the city.
The beautiful architecture of this
building seemed almost grotesque at
first, placed amid dilapidated, dirty
surroundings, but already the future
nelghburnuou Is being Improved.
Possibly they are unconsciously liv
ing up to this Ideal.
There la no question of the use
fulness of the association. I only
hope the time will come when homes
or aorniiturtes will be bulit In differ
ent parts of ths city by some enter
insing business tlrm and Omaha's
Young Women's Christian associa
tion Instead of being a club for a
few hundred as It la In many east
ern cities, will be a center of In
struction, amusement and help to
thousands of workers Instead of
hundreds. Thia work la not merely
- for the benefit of a few tor a pass
ing season, but for all the-people of
a great city for all time to coma.

All arrangements for the water ceremony

te launched at 1:80 o'clock at the foot of
Douglas street. Fully 6,000 people are ex
pected, among whom will be city and state
officials.
The launching of the battleahip Is a
yearly ceremony participated In by the
naval veterans, Grand Army of the Re
public and Spanish-American war veterans.
This year tha cercghontes will be In charge
of the ladles' auxiliaries of the various or
ganisations. The battleship which has been
secured for the occasion consists of a float
boat, which la to be fully rigged, with
regulation guns as used on the United
States battleships.
Schools Famish Flowers.
Three schools In the city will furnish the
flowers whloh will be used In decorating the
cruiser, which will be launched and fired
upon when It has reached midstream. At
present It .la not known what schools will
fumlau the flowers as this matter has been
left In tha hands of tha women. Invitations
wars sent out to every city and state of
ficial to be preaeat at tha annual cere
monies and soma have signified their in
tentions of being present.
The naval ' veterans consist of every
honorably discharged member of tha United
6tates navy who resides In Omaha and the
navy members tn the recultlng station. The
ceremonies ara la honor of Memorial day
which: falls oa May SO. However, It Is the

At the launching of the battleship last

and the naval veterans. Tha ship will be
launched exactly tha same as a modern

Method of Teaching
German at the High
- School is to Change
Suggestions of Dr. Fossler of the
University of Nebraska to
Be Followed.
The movement for the revision of the
methods of teaching Grrman in the high
school has reached a point where It has
been decided to add another teaoher to the
German staff .this fall.
The new teache will replace one of the
present staff of seven, who wilt be trans
ferred to some other department.
A modification of the present method
has also been determined. Instead
of using either the grammar or conversa
tional method, a combination of these two
will prevail, with the stress placed on the
grammar course.
The school board wants a German trained
English teacher an American of German
parentage-Ho take up tne work, and be
fore another school year opens, such an
instructor will have been employed.
A revision of the methods of teaching
German were decided upon after the
change was urged by Dr. E. Holovtchlner,
a member of the board. Dr. Holovtchtner
oontended that the present system waa not
broad enough and that the use of the
conversational method would tend to Im
prove the course.
Dr. Laurence Foinler. head of the de
partment of German of the University of
Nebraska, was called Into conference with
members of the board and Superintendent
Davidson last Saturday. Dr. Fossler sug
gested a combination of the two methods
and his advice Is being heeded by the
school authorities.
R. W. Craig Will Be at the Wheel
hoete Lies Along This Ride at
the River All the Way
Thraaah.
In an effort to establish a record for
motorlMa between Omaha and Kansas City
over the route of the proposed 'Uee" line
the fomous "Red Wing" E-M-F car, with
R. W. Craig at the wheel, will shoot away
from the Bee building promptly at 7 o'clock
Wednesday morning.
Mr. Craig will carry a message from the
edltcr of The Bee to the editor of the Kan
Fas City Star,' extending congratulations
over the fact that at last a road has been
found which will answer the demands of
tourists between the two metropolises of
the middle west and form the connecting
link between the two divisions of the
"ocean to ocean" highway.
The route to be covered by Mr. Craig In
"Red Wing" runs directly south from
Omaha on the Nebraska side of the
river. The first lap of the 2Ti0-mlle dash
will tie to Mlirord, Neb., over macadamized
roads. Thence the route will pass through
Louisville, Nebraska City and Falls City,
Neb.; Atqhlson and Leavenworth, Kan.
The last lap of the run will be on the
famous brick road over the Sante Fe Trail
from Leavenworth to Kansas City.
Having been over portions of the route
in the past Mr. Craig Is confident that the
run ran be made uader favorable conditions
In ten hours. MaAy stretches of straight
and Improved road abound to overcome
the difficulties occasioned by the hills
along the river. While the rains of the
last three days will make the going some
what slow at times. It Is believed that a
mark can be hung up which will prove In
teresting competition for the reliability run
to be given later In the season under the
ausplcea of The Bee.
When the word la given for "Red Wing"
to start Its dash through Nebraska and
Kansas, the time of the start will be im
mediately flashed to the offices of the Star
In Kansas City. At different points along
the route word will be received as to the
progress of the record-maker. At the fin
ish, which probably will be about 5 or S
o'clock In the afternoon, the time of the
arrival of the car will be wired to Omaha.
That Interest In the run and the estab
lishment of the "Bee" line has been aroused
Is apparent from the number of Inquiries
which have been received relative to the
route which will be taken. Residents of
the towns located along several possible
routes have shown much Interest tn the
project to provide a road for motorists be
tween Omaha and Kansas City and have
promised demonstrations when the route
finding car passes through.
To make the results of the trip o more
than passing moment It Is intended that
the "Bee" line shall be marked along the
route with suitable signs for tourists. As
announced previously the line probably
will be dedicated with a reliability contest
for stock cars. This will be held later In
the summer, when a suitably Inscribed
trophy will be hung up. '
Boy is Given to Navy ,
as Birthday Present
Mother Gives Her Permission on the
Day that He is Seventeen
Yean Old.
A unique birthday present was given
to Edward Hershlser of Onawa, la.. Tues
day when his mother brought him to
Omaha and gave him permission to Join
the United States navy, which the boy
had been wanting to do for several months.
He passed all examlnatlona and was sent
to Ban Francisco last night
Hershlser appeared at the recruiting
station a month ago and applied for enlist
ment In the navy, but was not 17 years
old, and although having the consent of
his mother, could not he admitted. Tues
day he was 17 and his mother accompanied
her boy to the recruiting station and, re
mained with him until he left the city.
Council Combine
Follows Long Laid
Scheme of Action
Election of Berka is but the Arrange
ment Made Two Years Ago
by Members.
"Tour story about council organisation
Is all right so far as It goes, only It doesn't
go far enough." said a city hall rounder
leaning up against the hand-ra'.l at the en
trance steps. "To understand why the
democrats are willing to' have a republican
elected president of the council when they
could, jiiet as well keep the place for them
selves, you have to go back to the original
organisation. Don't you remember how
folks were kept guessing two years ago
when the new council came In. divided six
and six, as to whether It would be repub
lican or democratic, and how a pretended
compromise was reached by which the
presidency was to alternate each year
from one party to another? That waa the
result of one of the neatest Jobs ever
pulled off. It was done by forming three
separate combines, the first of which Is the
key to the others, consisting of three re
publican councllmen, Burmester, Berka
and Hummel, and tha second, consisting
of three democratic councllmen. Sheldon
Brucker and Johnson. Each of these two
groups agreed to keep solid on all vital
questions and also to work together.
Burmester, Berka and Hummel then
got the other three republicans-
Davis, Schroeder and Kugel to enter
a compact with them to . vote as a
unit on everything for which four of them
should vote. Tou can see how this, left
Burmester, Berka and Hummel with the
whip-hand, because they could work with
the three democrats or with the other
three republicans, and control ono way
or the other. The result was that Bur
mester was made president the first year
with the distinct agreement that Brucker
should succeed him the second year, and
Berka the third. All talk about the
presidency of the council being In doubt
at any time since the combine made Its
original slate Is pure poppycock, just as
all talk about breaking the combination.
There are too many things at stake, and
too many Interests Involved, to let this
combination fall to pieces at this stage
of the game. It has been running things
without a hitch for two years, and It will
run things as long as the present council
continues."

Miller, wife of Elmer Miller, former en

own request was sent to the Douglas county
hospital.
After living In hopes that her husband,
who had departed for parts unknown and
taken with him another woman, would re
turn and provide for her wants, Mrs. Miller
has at last bowed to the Inevitable. Her
funds ran out and try as she did to provide
for herself, she waa unable to meet the
exacting requirements of the landlord and
the grocer.
Between sobs, she repeated the story of
how her husband had become Infatuated
with other women, had neglected her and
refused to provide for her, and at last,
when his duplicity was discovered, he had
quit Omaha for more congenial climes.
