In the game Friday night the teams played excellently. On the junior fresh men team, Inis Everett played in her usual form and no higher praise can be given. Ethel Ames made a remarkable goal from the field, and by some clever paesing with Miss Everett, scored a second goal at the last of the game. Edith Monigan whb a credit to the freshman class, for her guarding and team work were superb. Ruth Bell had a most difficult place, being guarded by Edith Burlingame's tall form, and did not have a chance to throw goals,, though in team work she was as goo! as ever. Inez Crow is a comparatively new player, and the manner of her guarding had much to do with keeping down the score of the other side. The senior sophomore team was composed of excellent players, and Pearl Archi bald and Nellie Stevenson did as well as possible acainst their opponents close' guarding. (I'm s junior and can't help baing prejudiced.) Margaret Pillsbury needs no comment and no praise, for her reputation as a player is established and always maintained. Edna King ard Edith Burliname are rather the' ehort and the long of the team, but they can guard. On Monday morning Dr. Davenport met the cIpbs during tbe first period to discuss the difficulty of Friday after noon, and the larger questions of class interference, responsibility and self, government. Dr. Davenport took the chair and a frank, good-natured discus sion followed, in which most of the class; took part. At the end of the period the meeting adjourned, to re-assemble, by Dr. Davenport's advice, after school. The president being absent, the meet ing went into a committee of the whole, with George Woods as chairman. After & long and spirited debate, the class de cided that class rivalry and interference, if rightly carried out, are justifiable and desirable, and that, with the consent of the principal, they will continue in future, the class to be responsible for any general damage, and individuals to be responsible for individual breaches of courtesy or discipline, except when the class organization is willing to bear the blame. At this meeting also, the report of the program committee was heard and accepted. The committee, especially Holland Bonnell, has done careful and efficient work, and there is no doubt that the programs will be unusually neat and attractive. Monday evening an anxious, trem Ibling committee of three entered the lion's den (otherwise the board of edu cation's rooms) and eat down to wail. For some time they sat in silence, grow ing a little reassured by the evident human nature of the august personages around the table. When Mr. Wood presented the case of the senior class in a brief but eloquent plea. A Uw sharp questions were asked; 1125 was voted for graduating expenses; and the com mittee fled thankfully. "By Gee Whiz!" remarked George outside, "I never was no giad to get through in all my life. But wasn't it a nap though?-' The Advocate. Omaha Notes. Fort Cook is once more regimental 'headquarters vith a corps of officers, tBtaff and line, and a band of forty-eicht men. Company E of the Second bat talion of the Tenth, has arrived from Cuba, where for two years it has been on duty. With it came Colonel E. P. Ewers, regimental commander, Capt. Henry Kirby, adjutant, Capt. J. A. Sballenberger, quartermaster, Lieut. Romulus Walton, commissary officer, and Acting Assistant Surgeon Wheate. The other three companies of the bat talion went directly through to Fort Mackenzie, Fort Robinson and Fort Niobrara, while the Third battalion un der Major Guggan, which has been at Crook for the past year, left Tuesday morning for San Francisco, whence it will sail with tbe First battalion already there, for the Filipines about the 15th. The balmy and springlike air of last Saturday and Sunday put a little life in to the Country Club and the links were dotted with red and green jackets which moved about to tbe usual chorus of polite objurgations. Messrs. Lsmist, Drake, Cartan, Foye, Cummings, Peck, Stevens, Maul, Cudaby, Wattles, Brady, Guiou and Low wero all there, besides a number of women and a party of young people. Of course tbe links are in a rough condition after tbe winter snows and frosts, but with the added water supply another well will yield and pipes laid to the greens (to say nothing of the increased dues) the course should be much improved this season. If the weather is favorable the club house will be reopened the lBt of April. On the recent trip of Governor Diet rich and his staff to Washington, Col. J. Cameron Anderson, surgeon general, of Omaha, wa3 tried en route by court martial, charged with having appro priated shoes belonging to Col. William Hay ward, commanding the Second regi ment. Full trial was accorded the ac cused, the court being made up of Brig adier General Barry, Col. Bills and Judge Advocate Brown. The court found against Col. Anderson and fined him an oyster supper for the whole party, which fine was paid handsomely after arriving in Washington. Tbe banquet to General Lee, which had been contemplated ever since his arrival here as commander of this de partment, was an accomplished fact on Monday evening at the Commercial club and proved to be an occasinp of farewell to the honored guest, who by bis recent retirement soon leaves Omaha, not, how ever, before he had, as ToastmasterGur ley said, "proved that he spoke the lan guage of the tribe." The Commercial club rooniB were filled by more than a hundred of "the best people," who were received by General Lee and Dr. Miller, after which the banquet begun. Three long tables extended the lengtb of the room from the table of honor and flowers and plants lent their aid toward making them attractive. The plate cards were tied in ribbons of the national colore and under a Bag on the front page was an inscription to General Lee. On the first page was an excellent picture of the guest o: the evening, followed by pages containing the menu and program of toasts and a poem written for the oc casion by Mr. J. H. Daniels. Mr. Eu clid Martin, in the absence of President P.ckens, introduced Mr. W. F. Gurley as tohs'master. He presented the speak ers of the evening. A dinner was given at the Shoreham in Washington on Tuesday evening to Senatoi Thurston and some others of the retiring senators by their friends. It iB said that Senator Thurston is to re ceive an appointment from President McKinley. General Lee was relieved from com mand of the Department of the Mis souri on tbe second of March and Gen. H. 0. Merriam, who happened to be in the city at the time, was placed in com mand. Both generals expected the
