High School Notes.
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
