new FEATURE IN SCHOOL WORK
Teachers Trying to Bring Mothers
in Touch with Kinder
garten Methods.

That the mothers of the city may be
brought into closer touch with kindergar
ten work Mrs Oretta Chittenden, super
visor of kindergartens in the public schools,
has adopted the plan Of inviting mothers of
pupils to visit schools on certain days.
The first mothers morning was held at
Lothrop school several weeks ago and was
a great success. Forty-fve children are in
the kindergarten and thirty seven mothers
responded TO the invitation to pay the
school a visit. Similar invitations were
issued by the principals Of Mason, Train,
Omaha View and Central Park schools
ut is not our aim TO invite the mothers
to come some day when show work has
been prepared" said Mrs. Chittenden. I'VE
want to have them see our regular exer-
cses and hope to impart to them the true
kindergarten spirit. Although everything
is taught by us in play, women who watch
the children cannot fail to appreciate the
value OF the training they receive. Where
we have been able to secure the hearty CO.
operation of mothers we have found that
the children yield to discipline more read
lily, and much of the friction between par
ents and teachers Is avoided. During the
year we expect to have mothers visit every
kindergarten in the city at least once"

In the Law and New
Trial Is Denied.

Judge Munger has filed his opinion In the
case of Anna J. Thompson, administratriX,
against the Milwaukee railroad, in which
he denies the motion Of the plaintiff for a
new trial. This case created considerable
interest at the time Of its first trial for the
reason that n rule of law in force In the
state OF Nebraska was applied to the case
which excites the pity and Indignation OF
many persons.
In this case Mrs. Thompson sued the rail-
road company and the Armour Packing com
pany for IS, 900 damages for the death OF her
minor son. The judge In his opinion re-
views the case, saying that 1t was brought
under the state law and came up in the dis
trict court for the reason that the defend
ants were on-residents of the state. The
plaintiff proved that the death OF the boy
was caused by the negligence Of the defend
ant; whereupon the defendant moved for a
dismissal of the case for the reason that
the mother OF the deceased was not the
proper person to bring the suit. the law pro-
viding that such suits should be brought by
the administrator of the estate for the ben
eft of the next OF kin; that the father was
the next of kin and that therefore he would
be the person in whose behalf the suit
should be brought.
The evidence on the trial showed that the
Omaha daily bee., 1900-11-24

father Of the boy had deserted his family
and had been absent from them for period
of more than ten years; that the mother
had supported the children until the dead
boy was able to support her. In his opinion
the Judge holds that the father is the proper
person TO bring the suit and that the com
plant could be amended to bring the case
before the court, but he further decides
that. II such case was brought, the father.
by his desertion Of the family. had lost all
right to the wages OF the son and, therefore.
could not be damaged by his death. For
these reasons the application for new
trial Is denied.

PUEBLoaNs had sutiiciency OF

better profit by our experience and
give Mr., Fries the rand bounce.
He is a plausible peason who preys

AFTER careful consideration OF
the Fries orphan home affair We
cannot but feel that benevolent
people are making mistake in en-
couraging Mr.. Fries to establish
his asylum. His heart is all right
in his desire to aid unfortunate
children. but his head does not
contain the capacity to conduct
such an institution. The Pueblo
