STUDENTS OF THE
UNIVERSITY HAVE
JOLLY TIME HERE
Five Hundred Come Up to Spend Day
in Omaha, and They Keep Busy
Kcjrardless of Kain That
Poured Down.
TAKE TIME FOR SEEING TOWN
Festivities End With a Dance at the
Auditorium, Following the
Lap Lunch.
BOWLING MATCH WITH ORANGES
I lie climax of a big day's enter
tainment came last night when the
visiting htudents of the University of
Nebraska enjoyed the lap supper, fol
lowed by entertainments and a dance
at the Auditorium.
Although the rain kept many away
from Omaha, so that only .lot) stu
dents came on the special train, it
proved that many had eoine over on
lluiisday evening, and Mill others
came on afternoon trains Friday when
the rains ceased. Thus when the
crowds were all gathered at the Audi
torium in the evening fully 500 were
present.
For an hour the students feasted
on the big supper prepared by the
manufacturers and jobbers of Omaha
and handled by the merchants' market
v.-eek committee.
MareiV colored orchestra struck up
taglime and even before the tables
were chared a score of couples were
dancing.
And the Dance Is On.
Noon the tables were cleared and
.hutitlcd out. Then dancing became
general. Joe Kelley, chairman of the
merchants' market week committee,
stepped upon the platform and made
an announcement. No matter what
he said, no one Jieard him, for there
was lots of noise, and, anyway, Kelley
had not finished his supper. He had
his mouth full of ice cream which he
uas getting in big bites from an ice
cream brick in his hand. Following
the announcement, the program went
on in good shape, so it was assumed
that he had announced its continua
tion. Scores of students had pocketed
('ranges from the table and they be
gan to roll them across the open
space on the Auditorium floor. One
Mopped in the middle. The students
then began to roll at the one for a
target. The snort developed into a
big game of bowling with oranges.
"I 'op, squash," and i two of them
came together in a head-on collision
in the center of the floor. Others
struck the wreckage, arid in a moment
broken oranges were scattered over
the floor. v . ,
Engberg Restores Dignity.
Dean Fngbcrg walked with charac
teristic dignity out upon the floor. He
began to kick the oranges out of sight
and to clear the floor in general.
It was wonderful how soon the
orange rolling stopped. Dean ,Eng
hcrg is the man who signs all the blue
envelopes that "can" the hoys out of
school.
So there was silence and the orange
howling stopped.
The Knights of Columbus Glee club
rendered some lively selections. Ga
latea danced some of "her" noted
writhings and Henry Cox's Omaha
Symphony Study orchestra rendered a
number of selections that were highly
appreciated by the students.
U. S. Ilarkson, a student, leaped
upon a table in the center of the room
and led the college yells until the big
Auditorium walls fairly bulged with
the pressure of the shouting.
The dance started and continued
until shortly before 9 o'clock, when
the students hurried from the Audi
torium down to the Burlington depot
and boarded the train for Lincoln,
pretty well pleased with the day's out
ing, even it it did rain most of the
time during their stay in Omaha,
Met By High School Band.
When the Burlington train carry
ing the students arrived it was met at
the depot by Vincent C. Miscall, Dr.

Hcese, jr., Amos Thomas, Frank

MUCH SPECULATION
OYER NEWU.P HEAD
Calvin, Tark, Scott and Farrell Are
Suggested as Possible Successors
to A, L, Mohler,
HARRIMAN MAN S EXPECTED
Speculation as to the identity of
the successor of A. L, Mohler, presi
dent of the Union Pacific, who re
signed Thursday, 5s rife in Omaha
railroad circles.
It is purely . speculation, however,
as to who this successor will be, it
being -asserted that if any person
.iiiows, "the one pernou. is Judge Lov
elt of Nvw York, the chairman of the
executive committee of the road and
also chairman of the board of direc
tors of the Harriman system of roads
The board of directors will hold
its meeting in New York next week
and immediately thereafter the an
nouncement of the appointment of a
president is expected to come from
the executive committee.
For years it has been the policy of
the Union Pacific management and
the management of the Harriman
lines of road to make promotions to
important positions from the family.
In fact this has been the policy ever
since the Harriman interests, ob
tained control of the properties. Tak
ing this view of the situation many
railroad men arc of the opinion h.
E. Calvin, vice president of the Ore
gon Short line will be the next presi
dent of the Union Pacific.
May Be W. L. Park.
Vr. L. Park, vice president of the
Illinois Central, is looked upon as
another possibility as a successor to
Mr. Mohler, Mr. Park was with the
Union Pacific for many years and
left it at the instance of the Harri
man interests to take charge of Illi
nois Central affairs, f
Another possibility, it is asserted,
is Y. L. Scott, president of the
Texas lines of the Southern Pacific.
Mr. Scott for a number of years was
general manager of the Union Pa
cific, being succeeded by Charles
Ware, It is asserted he went to the
Southern Pacific fr the nuiuosc of
bulking after the I l.ni iiiian interests
in that property.
! Farrell is Suggested,
J. !. Farrell, Portland, (lie., presi
dent of the Oregon W ashington Kail
way and Naviatiiin ninpanv, our of
the subsidiary propeitit-s of the Har
riman system, n suggested a another
man who may be dicidnl upon as
president fur the Unn-i Panne. He
is not known intiuuitty here, but it
is said that he is a thmuiiKh tjilit,4'

Mitchel Accuses
George Thompson
In Big Wire Plot
New York, May 19, Mayor
Mitchel, in a statement issued from
his office today, accused Senator
George F. Thompson, chairman of
the legislative conmrittee which has
been investigating wire tapping acti
vities ot the police, "of treachery to
the United States" because of bis at
tempt to investigate ihe tapping of
the telephone of the munitions-dealing
firm of Seymour & Seymour.
Mayor Mitchell in his statement
demanded that Police Commissioner
Woods be given an opportunity to
explain publicly before the commit
tee Ihe activities of the police in tap
ping telephone wires "so far as they
relate to the local situation."
"Treason to the government" read
the statement, "is defined in the law
as giving aid and comfort to the ene
mies of a government or a nation. To
deliberately destroy one of the most
powerful weapons in the hands of
the government to detect and prevent
the operations of public enemies; 1
brand as treachery, Every repetition
of these attempts to disclose the op
erations of the city police force made
in the interest of self-advertisement
constitutes a cumulative act of
treachery toward the United States."
This statement was issued after
Chairman Thompson had announced
that the inquiry into the wire tap
ping would be continued at today's
session, although in executive scs-,
sion. Thompson told Corporation
Counsel Lamar Hardy, representing
Mayor Mitchel, that "there is not
now and never was a question of in
ternational interest involved in the
case." This was after Hardy had pro-
i tested against further inquiry into
I the Seymour case on the ground that
the national interests were at stake if
publicity were given 10 the case.

AUSTRIAN TROOPS
TAKE. COSTABELLO
Official Report Says Army of Dual

Across Luan Valley.
LOSSES OF ITALIANS HEAVY
Berlin, May IV (By Wireless to

Italian front, the official statement
of May 18 says, althotigh Ihe Italians
are undertaking vigorous counter
strokes, The Austriatts i rossed the
Luan valley and captured Costabella. j
Today's official Austrian report
says:
"Italian fronC In the coastal re

artillery operations were impeded by
fog. Southeast of Monfalcone the
Italians attempted to recapture posi
tions near Nagni, which they lodt re
cently, but they were repulsed.
"In the Col. Di Lana district re
peated hostile attacks were made
without succes. In the southern
Tyrol, Austro-llungarian troops at
tacked and captured the frontier
ridge of Maggio, between the Astico
and Leno valley, crossed the Luan

hostile attacks souttr ot juosciierc on

''Yesterday we captured more than
900 Italians, among whom were
twelve officers and took eighteen can
nons and machine guns.
"The official Italian reports of May
16 and 17 state that the Austro-Jfun-garian
losses in these engagements
were enormous. These reports were
invented in order to diminish the im
pression made by the Italian retreat.
J he losses of the enemy can be es
timated only by those who hold the
battle field. The Italians are not in
that position. The Austro-Hunga-riafls.
while appreciating at its full
value the sacrifice of every brave sol
dier, are able to declare that the
Austro-Hungariaii losses have been
exceedingly small, thanks to the
ability of the infantry, the powerful
protection given by the artillery and
the experience in war of the com
manders." Cotner University
