graduated from the collegiate department of
that institution and is regarded as one of
the most successful by the faculty.
The course which these young men have
just finished is designed to mpart liberal
education and in the accomplishment of this
purpose the ancient classics hold the first
place as the nest efficient instrument of
mental discipline. Besides the Latin, Greek
and English classics, the course embraces
mental and moral philosophy the higher
mathematics and astronomy, history, lilera-
ture and the natural sciences.
Particular stress is laiu upon the neces-
sity of the classics and the higher mathe-
mates as the proper foundation for a liberal
education and every effort is made to form
the mind to habits of correct reasoning and
to impart sound principles of mental and
moral philosophy. 1t Is the opinion of the
faculty that such course is better fitted
to develop all the faculties, form a correct
taste and teach the student how to use all
his powers to the best advantage, as well as
prepare him to excel in any pursuit,
whether professional or commercial, than
any special course which tends to develop
only certain faculties and leaves the remain
ing ones dwarfed.
The leader of the class, both a student
and in popularity, is undoubtedly John Il.
Smith, young man from New Haven, Conn,
who carried off the honors of the class and
of the college. In the annual competition
among the eight Jesuit colleges of the Mis-
souri, province, and in which last year there
were 400 competitors, Mr.. Smith was awarded
the first prize for the best English essay
While as yet he has made no definite ar
rangements, the young man has a decided
preference for the study of law, and with
his known ability and capacity for hard
work and perseverance his friends have lit
tie fear for his future success.
Another member of the class who has at
tracted some attention by his literary work
is Joseph b. Egan, the class poet said tc
possess the true poetic instinct. 1t Is un-
derstood that one of his volumes will
shortly appear. In the intercollegiate English
contest for 1899 Mr.. Egan captured the
third place among the eight colleges, having
chosen for his subject, "Tne Catholic Spirit
of the Renaissance Exemplfed in the
Works Of Shakespeare"
William ]. Coad, son Of John f. Coad
of this city, received the gold medal for
Omaha daily bee., 1899-07-09

from day to day in the effort to keep the
favorites at the head of the list.
The popularity of the contest was attested
by the fact that votes were cast for nearly
100 young women whose friends thought
them eligible for the prize and that al
together over 100000 votes were recorded
for the various candidates.
"Who leads the vacation contest today?"
was the familiar morning greeting in nearly
every large mercantile industrial establish
ment in Omaha, because scarcely an insti
tuition of this kind did net have it's repre-
sentative in the list.
A man who recently removed from Boston
to Omaha, talking to a friend, said: when

l look to see is who has the most votes in
the vacation competition. Next turn to
find out whether the Boston base ball team
and then l look for the news" This
is only a typical illustration of the interest
shown.
The close OF the polls brought out a scene
the most hotly contested political campaign
So many people were in line waiting to be
accommodated at the appointed hour that
numbers had to be given out to facilitate
the voting and insure fair treatment to all.
In all probability the relative places of the
successful girls were determined by the
ballots cast during the last hour.
In presenting the portraits of Omaha's
most popular working girls a few words

The Bee Vaca-
ton Contest

Through the generous hospitality of The
Bee the twelve most popular working girls
earning their own living in Omaha will
enjoy two weeks vacation with trips to de-
: lightful summer resorts as the guests of
this paper
Some six weeks ago The Bee offered to
pay the entire expenses of summer vaca-
tions fer the four young women who
should be voted most popular by their as
sociates. The polls were to close at 6 p.
IN, July l. When the returns were counted
the tally sheet showed the following
suit for the four winners:
Miss Eva Phillips, employed by Swift &
Company, ,O36 votes.
Miss Clara Mccain, employed by Thomp-
scn, Belden & Co., 154,533 votes.
Miss Florence Rodgers, employed by the
Richardson Drug Company, 91,59S votes
Miss Jennie Rabinowitz, employed by the
w. R. Bennett Company, 65,22S votes.
The next eight were:
Miss Clara Donner, employed by Kelley,
Stiger G. Co.
Miss Grace E. Gunnell employed by the
Sherman & Mcconnell Drug Company.
Miss Carrie 0cumpaugh, of the Dodge
Street Luncheon.
Miss Ada L. Talmadge, employed by NJ.
E. Smith G. Co.
Miss Pearl Sunderland, employed by the
Postal Telegraph company.
Miss Hanchen Rehfeld teacher in the
Lake school,
Miss Alma Lindquist employed by NJ E.
Smith & Co.
Miss Addie Palmer, employed by w. R.
Bennett Company.
Eighth place was tie between Miss Tai
madge and Miss Sunderland.
So brisk has been the vote in this contest
and so successful the work prosecuted by
the contestants and their friends that The
Bee decided to do more than was agreed
in the original offer, and. besides providing
vacation trips for the four leaders, it will
voluntarily provide additional trips for the
snext eight. The young ladies have selected
their routes, and before another month has
passed will be enjoying themselves at noun
tain or lake and fitting themselves to return
to their work better for the rest and recrea-
tion.
The plan of this novel contest Is familiar
: to all readers of The Bee. Every patron
Of the paper was granted the privilege OF
registering choice upon a coupon printed
in each issue. Subscribers who prepaid
their subscriptions were given the further
privilege OF casting prepaid subscription
ballot, which counted twelve votes for their
favorite for each weeks prepayment.
:, In pursuance of this plan most OF the
principal competitors organized systematic
campaigns. Some of them put themselves
in the hands of campaign managers who
looked after their interests and solicited
coupons and subscriptions for their favor
ite. AS the time for closing the competi-
'tion neared its end interest became more
intense and thousands of votes were cas-
