OMAHA, Jan. 22.-To the Editor OF The
Rec: My attention has been called to an
editorial in your evening edition of Janu-
airy 2l, predicated upon a personal COM
munlcation to you by some one who asserts
that he Is an ardent republican, making
very serious charges against the Normal
school dormitory at Peru. / will not take
issue with him as to his self-characteriza-
tion, yet it may be questioned that an ar
dent republican, living within a stone-throw
of this institution twenty years, know
ing its vile character as asserted by him
yet smothering it in his immaculate breast
without bringing 1t to the attention OF his
brother republicans constituting the mana
ging board of that institution during its en-
tire existence with the single exception of
the writer
The appointees to the Board of Education
during the quarter OF a century that the
writer has been honored as one of its seven
members are we'll known citizens, always
alert to the interests and good repute of
the school; are above reproach, and need
no defense by me.
Touching the charges preferred by this
ardent republican, | denOunce each and
every charge and innuendo made by him
against the dormitory of the State Normal
school as absolutely without foundation, and
false in toto. | challenge Mr.. Ardent Repub-
lican to remove his mask, show his face and
true name and accept an invitation to come
into court and make good his malicious as
sertions and insinuatiOns or retract them.

OMAHA, Jan. 22.-To the Editor of The

out successfully in connection with the

ban Exposition. r.l.
much more important thing to know
than what determined this or that product,
whether it be the book of Judges, or the
Cuban episode, is what they themselves
determined: what followed because of their
existence; and. although this is reasoning
in dizzy circle, l cling to the remark as a
not inapt way to introduce my subject
"Fame's Tribute to Children" The reve-
lation is worthy of the name; of this you
may be sure and what contributes to all
this? The general, and natural way the
great doors of the Columbian exposition
opened, through the channel of the Board
of Lady managers, to attract the attention,
and merit the gratitude of the thinking
world
To Mr.. f. H. Lord of Chicago, general
passenger agent of the Chicago & Great
Western railway, are 1--WE indebted for a
copy of this book which Is both rare and
valuable, containing the sentiments and au-
tographs of the most famous men and
women of the day. A few words as to its
origin l herewith transcribe, trusting IT
may not be without interest, especially as
Nebraska is entitled to one small niche In
this temple of fame.
When it was decided to erect a children's
building on the exposition grounds, the
Board Of Lady Managers called for assist
ance in raising the necessary funds to carry
out the project. Among the many ways
and means to this end, the idea presented
itself that a volume might be compiled of
sentiments dedicated to little children by
famous men and women, and that an addi-
tional interest might be given it by printing
these sentiments in fac smile. Acting upon
this idea, a circular containing the follow
ing paragraph was printed, with the sane
tion and official recognition of Mrs. Pal
mer, president of the Board of Lady Man
agens:
We appeal to the laurel-crowned of all
countries. whose subjects will be partakers
of the benefits to be derived from the sue
cess of this undertaking, to aid 1t by con
line; a sketch, be 1t ever so SMALL a dash
of the pencil or brush; some thoughts in
music, If only n few chords.
This circular, accompanied by one de
5criptive Of the children's building, was
sent to those whose contributions were de
sired. The generous response which it re-
oeived has made this volume possible.
AS a slight token of my keen appreciation
Not the voices of nature or the quickened
sense,
Appeal with such startling eloquence,
AS that sound which seems through
Fame" to sing
Of the dimpIes and laughter of these
Vikings.
