to amend the spelling of certain words
in common use. 1t reported to the
board the following list OF words: Pro-
gram programmed. tho (thoughl. altho
although. thorofare (thoroughfarel.
thru (througb), turnout throughout,
catalog (catalogue). decalog (decalogue),
prolog (prologue), demagog (demagogue).
These changes are certainly suggested
by common sense; but who ever heard
OF common sense overcoming the power
OF usage where the English language is
concerned! Two or three periodicals
have coursgeously undertaken to inaug
urate this reform. The Chicsgo uni
versity announces the adoption of this
spelling of the eleven preceding words.
This will give great impetus co the re-
form. Superintendent E. Benjamin
Andrews of the public schools of CHI
cago also advocated this change in spsll-
ing last fall. 1t will take soma time to
overcome the old habit, but the signs of
the times indicate that the spelling re-
form is ION the way"

Atropos to the mixed clubs. the men
we're very generally included IN the fe--
tiyities attendant upon the uehering in
Of the new year. At the New Year re-
ceptions OF the wouen's clubs in Ne
braska they we've made the guests OF
honor, and epj ,yed the tribute. But it
remained for New York Soroeis to take
a long step ahead and invite the gen.
tlemeu to q luncheon on New Years
day. The beautiful and commodious
ball room of the Waldorf Astor was
transformed into a dining hall, where
three hundred and fifty guests were
seated at email tables while an elaborate
luncheon was served. One charming
feature was the choral blessing song be-
fore the serving began. After lunch
con. the guests whom these club women
delighted to honor were further enter
tanned with an afternoon musical and
philanthropic program at the Astor gal
lery.

The Twentieth Century club OF Mar
shalltown, Iowa. is a mixed club and Is
also an accepted member OF the state
fed ration. But the wives and mothers
of this club claim that they have the
Lords OF creation" under good subjec-
ton. The women plan the business
and do the voting and permit the men
10 pay the bills. There is q similar
club in Lincoln. Nebraska. / think
they call their husbands "the annex"
That very complimentary term was
coined by some of our higher institutions
OF learning.

Lots of Smoke.

Residents in the neighborhood of
Fourth and Washington streets were
somewhat alarmed last evening by the
smokiness OF the atmosphere and the
odor Of something burning.
Those who took the pains to learn
the cause discovered that the smoke
came from one of those odd shaped
boxes on pole bearing incandescant
light wires.
A stream of white smoke poured
from the box for fifteen or twenty min
utes, when with fash Of blue flame,
the smoke stopped. The phenomenon
is only one of those queer things that
happen when electricity is used.
Some OF the residents were still Won
dering what was the matter few min
utes afterward when they turned on
their lights and they failed to shine.

Exciting Runaway.

Pasers by on Green and Front streets
were treated to quite an exhiliarting
bit of excitement last evening about s
o'clock. A team of wildly excited
horses, attached to a two seated rig,
dashed madly down Greene street and
up Front, dispensing the groups of peo-
pie standing on the sidewalk, until the
frightened aEsnals were finally check
ed on Front street, above the Bellevue
hotel
The horses were brought to sudden
stop on Front street by striking tele-
phone pole and coming in contact with
a horse and buggy which was hitched
in front of j F. Ryan's store.
The outfit belonged to Chas. Blume,
and was driven by Mr. Alfred Covey,
who lives east of the city. Mr.. Covey
had secured the rig in the afternoon,
and together with his family, had been
attending the funeral services of the
late Julian Lane. Fortunately he had
taken his family home and was alone
in the rig when the horses became
frightened at the street cars at the in
tersection Of Fifth and Green streets,
and started to run. Mr.. Covey endeav-
ored to check the excited animals, but
one OF the lines broke, and he was
thrown to the ground, but escaped
without injury save several slight
scratches and bruises. The team con-
tinued down Greene and up Front until
stopped at Ryan's store in the manner
recounted above. The horses were not
injured, but the axle Of one buggy
wheel was badly twisted. Excepting
this no damage was done to either the
occupant or the rig itself. The happy
outcome of the runaway was very for
tunate and rather remarkable, as the
streets were more or less filled with
people out driving.
