Water Plant Change
May Cause Shortage
Ttie water commissioners have given

economy practiced today In the use of
city water to prevent a possmie snonage
in the Fairmount psrk reservoir. Con
nections will be made today with the
battery of boilers in the new bolle rooms
and It will be necessary to shut down the
pumps while the work Is In progress. It
v will require from nine to twelve hours.
The upper storage reservoir was filled
during the night before the pumps were
shut down, but the supply of approxi
mately 5.00C.OCO gallons' will not last more
than one day. If much water Is used
during the day the pressure will be re
duced so it will not flow at some of the

Fire Does Damage
to Planing Mill
Fire losses to the amount of $4,500, with
Insurance of only $2,000, were Inflicted
upon the planing mill property of P. H.
Wind & Sons, Thirteenth street, between
Broadway and First avenue, yesterday.
Two small cottages owned by the estate,
and located very close to the warehouse
on First avenue, and the warehouse It
self were totally destroyed.
The fire started at the noon hour In
the cottage occupied by Mrs.. William
Walker, a negro woman, when the. tank
on a gasoline stove she was using ex
ploded. The burning fluid spread over
the floor and quickly set fire to, the
house. H. P. Wind, manager of the
plant, was sitting In his office when the
screams of the woman, who had Just
barely time to snatch up her baby and
get out of the house, attracted hie at
tention. He turned In a fire alarm and
then kept the fire under control 'for ten
minutes by the use of hand grenades.. It
was at the , noon hour for the firemen
also, and when No. . 2 company arrived
the wagon bore only two men. The fire
men from No. 3 station . were laid out
several minutes by a passenger train
that was backing across Broadway, and
as the only available hydrant was at
Broadway and Thirteenth street, a block
away, no advantage could have . been
gained by the firemen taking another
street. Before the first streams were
turned on the fire had spread from the
cottage to the warehouse and it was a
mass of flames. The - warehouse was
filled with mill grade seasoned oak and
western lumber, and burned with great
fierceness. Two lines of hose were laid
from one hydrant on Broadway, and al
though the water pressure was supplied
by a twenty-four-inch main, and up to
the maximum, the firemen were unable
to prevent total destruction of the build
ing and Its .contents. The destruction
involved considerable manufactured stuff
of a Valuable character, none of which
could be saved. One of the cottages was
totally 'destroyed and another adjoining,
occupied by Mrs. Jane Peoples, was badly
damaged. . A third was slightly scorched.

IMPROVE LIBRARY SERVICE
Librarian Miss Edith Tobitt Gathers
Ideas at Convention.
TRAINING CLASS TO BE PAID
Training- Period Lengthened; and
Number of Hoars Per Day Be
- dared Jien Books Pore-hated
la East.
Plans for bettering the service and
broadening the scope of the public li
brary are to be put Into effect In the
early 'autumn, according to Miss Edith
Tobitt, librarian, who has returned from
the American Library association conven
tion in Ottawa, Canada, full of Ideas for
the local Institution. .
'The principal change will be In the
method of conducting the training class,"
said Miss Tobitt. "Heretofore cadets
have received their instruction amS prac
tice in the library in a general way.
Beginning with this year's class, which
starts September 16. apprentices will be
given more thorough training in every
department under the supervision of an
expert chosen from the library force for
that purpose.
"The course will include study and ac
tive work In circulation department,
reference room, reading room and chil
dren's department, and in methods of
cataloguing and caring for public docu
ments. Instead of the student working
four hours a day for seven months be
fore . being taken on tbe regular staff
she will work five hours a day for nine
months. Cadets have received - no re
muneration In the past. Hereafter they
will receive 10 a month."
Miss Tobitt says the Omaha library now
Is In the class of libraries which have
college men and women on their staffs
and It will need employes with broader
education and larger experience from
now on.
The entrance examination will be held
at the library Wednesday morning. Sep
tember 4, at 9 o'clock. Already more
than ' a dozen women of Omaha and
nearby towns have applied. The three
with the highest standing will be selected
to enter the training class.
Make Library More Inviting;.
, "We are going to aim from now on to
advertise the library more; to make It
more Inviting, convenient and accessible,"
said the librarian. "We cannot afford
to have some one specially to direct
patrons, but we are going to devise some
way of gtving Information and service
more quickly and efficiently.
"We are trying to evolve a way of get
ting books to people who cannot come
to the library. We reach many through
factories, the social settlement and other
Institutions. We have 1,500 borrowers,
which is the average according to the
population for libraries in other cities,
but we want more."
Miss Tobitt read a paper on "Types of
Assistants" at the convention; She visited
New York City dealers In second-hand
books and "remainders" books left over
from editions and arranged to secure
from them volumes which cannot be
bought In Omaha. She also visited li
braries !n New York City, Philadelphia,
Pittsburgh, Newark, Boston and Chicago.

FOR PASSENGERS ON OCEAN
WASHINGTON, Aug. U.-The house
today, eager for adjournment passed
thirty-five private claims bills, adopted a
half score resolutions, sent the Panama
canal bill to conference and passed three
measures of general Importance.
Two of the measures passed referred
to the same subject and grew out of the
agitation for ; greater safeguards for
human life at sea following the Titanic
disaster. One was 'introduced by Chair
man Alexander of the merchant marine
committee, providing in general terms
that every passenger-carrying vessel must
hereafter be equipped with enough life
belts for every passenger and member of
the crew and with life boats sufficient to
remove from a stricken ship all human
beings at one time.
It extends the inspection of ocean-going
steamers to those flying foreign flags,
but which touch at United States ports.
The other measure was introduced by
Representative Hardy of Texas, demo
crat, and made more inflexible the clear
ance for vessels not manned according
to law.

sult from unmarried men coming to the

EFFICIENCY BROW THE AIM
Henry Kieser Declares Church Must
Dea1. with This Problem. ,
CHUBCE IS Wi.J, ORGANIZED
Manners Mart Indlvtdaallr Become
More Efficient If They Would
Help In the Vsthnlldlns
of the Church.
"Efficient Is the keyword of the age
Invention and perfection of machinery
has occupied the attention of men in the
last few decades. Today man Is being
analised. Man can perform from two to
three times whet he Is producing on the
average under right conditions. In the
world of Industry the principles of scien
tific management Is being applied. Men
are taught to find themselves. They are
educated as their efficiency grows."
These are extracts from a lay sermon
preached yesterday at the Dundee Pres.
byterlan church by Henry F, Klser.
"The great educators of the country
are aiming at a more efficient system
of education to make more efficient' men.
I do not agree altogether with the article
appearing In the Ladles' Home Journal
written by a teacher, that the public
school sustem is a fallurs.. We are rea
lizing that every boy and girl Is not
shaped for a philosophical or scientific
course. Some are Inclined towards tech
nical training. The establishment of tech
nical schools In every community Is not
far off. Not until then are we educatlnc
for efficiency in every boy and girl.
Omaha has already taken a step towards
this direction in the establishment of the
high school of commerce and Its manual
training and domestic science depart
ments. ...
"The church must deal with this same
question of efficiency. Meredith Nichol
son charges t'he church with being In
efficient and asserts that is the reason
Smith does not go to church. I cannot
agree with Mr. Nicholson. The church
than It ever was. It Is better equipped
as an organisation is more efficient today
and better organized than In any other
age. If t'he , charge pf Inefficiency Is
true then It must be laid to the Individual
who makes up the membership of the
church.
"The average member of the church
must become more efficient In the service
of the ctturch. Common sense must di
rect his every action In that service. The
church cannot stoop down td all of
Smith's Ideas. The doctrines and creeds
which Mr. Nicholson would eliminate are
essentially the backbone of the church,
primary function of the church Is to
Upon those the church Is built. The
worship God. However, the individual
member of the cburch must touch the
people outside of the church in a manner
which will bring the church In closer con
tact with the mass of humanity and thufc
make Its efficiency felt."

Sandhill Country
Raises Plenty of
Big Fat Turkeys
"I notice by the papers that the com
mission men art predicting 4i-eent tur
keys for Thanksgiving. This prediction,
If it amounts to anything. Is something
that will fill the hearts of many of eur
people with glee." raid T. H. Norton of
Merrlman, Neb.
"While we do not claim to have a
corner on turkeys, we do claim to hve
enough so that the marketing of them
will prove quite an Industry this fall..
There are a great many of the people In
the sand hills country to the south of us
who during the last two or three years
have turned their attention to poultry
raising, featuring turkeys to- quite an
extent, so much so that I guess that I
know of fifteen to twenty men who this
fall will have from fifty to 10O birds to
turn off.
"To be successful In the raising of tur
keys with us all you have got to do Is
to caro for the birds while they are
young and protect them from the coyotes
hen they get older. They will do the
rest.
"C. H. Walworth, living down In the

seed, they take on flesh much faster
than when given rations of corn."
