The board of alder men has appropriated $100,000 for the entertainment of General Persh ing on his arrival from France next Wednesday, but balked at voting anything for the reception of the prince of Wales on his visit to the city. Opposition to the entertainment of the prince at the expense of the city came from three republican members, Bruce M. Fatconer, Wil liam F. Quinn and Clifford S. Bost wick. Mr. Falconer said he would oppose use of any part of the appro priation for the reception of the ?rince and that the Americans of rish descent on the board would do likewise. One of the members of the board said after the meet ing: "There is not a chance that the board will appropriate a dollar for the entertainment of the prince of Wales and I doubt whether any re publican or democrat member would have the temerity to move for such an appropriation. Possibly one of the socialists might do so, but the man who makes a motion of that sort, whether in jest, or to get an f - : - 1:1.-1.. i. expression ui 1 miuu, nivtiji w be thrown through a window."

The delightful light rooms and sccom-. moda'lons in the new quarters of the Omaha Business college in the Lyric bulldtnjr are putting; new pep Into every body connected with the school. Much encouragement la felt by tha fact that former pupils who dropped out on account of the flu epidemic last year or because of removal from the city, are coming back to renew their studies, taking up the work where they had stopped and are now going ahead to finish the course. The fact that busy business and pro fessional men have taken the interest to Investigate the college and its courses and then to have recommended and, in some cases, brought personally students for enrolment is appreciated and grate fully acknowledged. The fall term Is now opened and both old and new students are getting Into the full swing of regular studies with a vim and eagerness that bespeaks splendid re sults.

Why We Teach Mosher Shorthand Mr. Mosher introduced the Gregg system of shorthand to this section of the country. He saw where it could bt improved. By adding twelve little ' shortening principles to the Gregg alphabet he has secured to Mosher writers briefer outlines and positive legibility. At the same time he has eliminated a great volume of memory work. Mosher is far briefer. Mosher has fewer angles and is easier to write. In Mosher every word is written in full and is always the same. It is easily read when the notes are "cold." All Mosher writers write their words alike and can read each other's notes. Mosher Shorthand is used alike by both Court Reporters and Stenographers. It is endorsed by experts throughout the United States. Thousands are writing it. The best shorthand speed record, 804 words a minute, was made by a Mosher write There is a satisfaction in teaching it, because we get better results than with any other system of which we know. It is quicker learned and more accurate in use. Our students are making good. In chooosing YOUR Shorthand course, take Mosher. Become a rapid and accurate writer and stenog rapher. If you have learned the Gregg system and want to speed up, let us help you. Mosher writers command good positions. Come if 3?ou can. If not, let us leach you by our "Home Stud)" methods.
