More Money for Entomolory.

Macon. Ga, March IA committee
was appointed to ask the next Legis-
lature for $1,000 more money each year
to carry on the work of the board Of
entomology. The committee on legisla-
ton appointed by the Horticultural So
ciety at its last meeting was delegated
to attend to this. The meeting was one
of the most largely attended ever held
in Macon, and it was agreed that only
by the most compact organization can
the growers make their business profit
able. Another meeting will be held here
on April 10 to sign the agreement which
binds the fruit growers to patronize
only such commission men as are
known to be responsible. The state
board of entomology will hold a pri-
vate meeting this morning to go over
the report of State Entomologist Scott
for the past year. Messrs. BercknIans,
Hughs and Stevens are here.

POWER CANAL MASS MEETING
bate the Franchise Asked
For

The Platte river power canal project,
which in one feature is now before the
city council, will meet it's FIRST battle at
the mass meeting in the council chamber
In the city hall this evening. Inasmuch
as this new project, II completed, will
mean the reduction OF the city's arc light
bill 81 per cent from the present rates and
to consumers a reduction of 300 per cent
for lighting purposes, the proposed fran
chise has an enemy in the Thomson-Hous-
ton corporation which is directly interested
and which will naturally bring all its
forces to bear in an effort to stihe so dan
gerous a competitor. The means by which
they hope to do this is to secure the pass
age Of the Hsscall substitute ordinance,
which is so hedged about by restrictions
and clauses as to make II an entirely
worthless proposition and one which no
one will find 1t to advantage to accept.
It is expected that with so much at
stake the Thomson Houston company will
be we'll represented at the mass meeting
tonight. An example of what may be looked
for in this direction was afforded by a
meeting Of the South Side Improvement
club Saturday night. where City Engineer
Rosewater was present to speak on the
subject Of his proposed franchise and Coun-
Gilman Hascall answered him, at times the
debate becoming so exciting that four men
we're talking at once.
At the meeting tonight City Engineer
Rosewater will explain in detail the plans
Of the proposed power plant and will tell
the methods he will adopt to bring to-
gether the waters Of two rivers, the Platte
and Elkhorn, to form a lake larger than
any now in the vicinity Of Omaha, for the
storing Of water. He intends to take up
clause by clause both his own proposition
and the substitute offered by Councilman
Hascall. He will ask the people, not that
they give him unusual privileges, but that
they allow him to enjoy the same privileges
as the present electric light company, while
in return he binds himself to furnish the
city light and power at greatly reduced
rates.

At the CreiEhton-Orpheum.

or the program at the Orpheum this
week it may most justly be said that Il is
uniformly good, for there is no number
which stands out conspicuously, and that is
due only to the fact that all are merito-
rious. Morris Alburtus and Jessie Millar
open the entertainment with a rather I'M
usual combination of accomplishments, he
giving an exhibition OF club Juggling and
she playing in a musicianly manner on
the cornet. Baby Lund, who is not a
stranger In Omaha, sings as prettily as
ever and has added several of the new
songs to her repertoire. Kelly and Vio-
lette, who are announced as the fashion
plates" Of vaudeville, do a singing and
dancing speciality which serves to demon
strate that Violette possesses an extensive
and costly wardrobe. Berol and Berol
display great ingenuity In fashioning pieces
OF cloth of various sizes, shapes and hues
into very natural looking pictures, and
have improved upon this act as 1t was pre-
sented in this city last season. Carver
and Pollard are two young women, whose
speciality certainly possesses novelty, and
except for the fact that at one or two
points their comedy is rather startling, as
coming from women, although 1t is very
funny and up-to-date. The Athos family
Of six male members present a thoroughly
enjoyable acrobatlc act, in which the young
est Of their company, a small boy, plays
the most conspicuous part and acQuits
himself with credit. Mark Sullivan con-
tributes a monologue, consisting chiefly
Of representations of we'll known actors, and
in most cases his mimicry is very lifelike.

ADoRATIoN OF VIRGIN MARY
NOvena Auspiciously Begun at the
Church of the sacred Heart
Last Night.

At the Sacred Heart church Sunday even
ing was begun a novena in honor OF the
immaculate conception. the chapel Of that
church having been dedicated last Sunday
to Our Lady Of the Immaculate Concep-
ton. The novena will continue for eight
days, there being rosary. benediction and
instruction each evening at 7:45 o'clock.
The initial sermon Of the service was
preached by Father Theobald Kalimaji.
who took as his theme, The Devotion Of
the Blessed Virgin Mary" his text being:
Beloved, from henceforth all Of the ma
tions shall call Me blessed"
Catholics have been reproached,' he
said, for devotion to the Blessed Virgin
Mary, and 1t is charged that we, by this
devotion, obscure the glory Of Jesus and
derogate the honor and glory Of God by
worship of the mother Of God. These
charges are made in spite Of all explana-
ton Of the Catholic position. While We
most earnestly repel the charge Of adorlng
the Blessed Virgin, we plead guilty to the
greatest generation for her. We pray to
her for her intercession for us In life and
in death. The Blessed Virgin is the most
exalted lady on earth or in heaven. II
saints on earth and in heaven have power
with God; IL sinners may have their prayers
for others answered, why should not the
Blessed Virgin, the mother Of God, have
more power than others? She was without
the stain Of original sin and sin came not
near her. She had the fullest measure OF
sanctifying grace, and as the lowest meas
ure of this grace lifts man above the an
gels, what must be the position Of one who
has the full measured She was possessed
OF all the Christian virtues. II we honor
wisdom and virtue in men, why should we
not venerate the Blessed Virgin Mary?
Mary is as truly the mother Of Jesus
as our mothers are mothers of each of us.
Jesus is our God-the God Of might by
whom all things were made, Is there an
honor more exalted than that Of being the
mother Of such a God? God could not
create a greater mother than Mary. As
she was never separated from Jesus in life,
let her name ever be united with His in
our prayers. In honoring her you only
honor Him who has adorned her heart"
Next Sunday evening the sermon will be
preached by Father Blackmore, S. j., OF
Creighton college, who will take as his
subject, 9TH Immaculate Conception"
The service was well attended and gives
promise Of creating much interest among
the members of the parish and others who
are attracted by this beautiful devotion.

prepare them for the American climate.
