OMAHA AS A BUSINESS TOWN
Advantages of Employment IT Offers
to Those who Get Their Com
merciaI Education Here.

why should young people preparing to
go into business prefer Omaha as the best
place in the west in which to get their
commercial education2 I'll tell you," said
a member OF the faculty of-one of our big
business colleges.
1T is the part of wisdom to get your ed
ucation in a city Offering you unbounded
opportunities for employment when your
course is completed, rather than in a small
place which has but very limited num-
Der of industries cistern is all right in
its way, but is not ideal fishing resort.
So with the small towns. They offer lit
tie chance for employment as compared
with Omaha, the metropolis of the state
and the business center of the west The
young person not acquainted with Omaha
should recall that Omaha has $4,000 people,
S9.4 miles of streets, 10 parks, 16 railroads,
81 public schools, S. publications, 125 job
bling houses and 500 factories.
ITO these figures we might just add the
city Of South Omaha, TO say nothing OF
Council Bluffs. South Omaha has a popu-
lation of Sl,3S3 Omaha and South Omaha
combined contain about one-hfth of all
the business houses in the entire state and
about four and one-third times as many as
Lincoln. its nearest competitor. Omaha has
Omaha is the second greatest stock market
in the world. while its packing Industries
take third rank. The packing houses alone
employ over 5000 hands. They employ a
large army of bookkeepers and clerks,
whose wages run from $3.50 to 81 per day
The railroad Offices located In this city en-
ploy hundreds of bookkeepers. stenogra-
pliers, clerks and telegraph operators.
I'm addition TO the above lines Of bust
ness, not to be found in the ordinary city,
Omaha has its great department stores,
wholesale houses and commission houses
besides hundreds OF the ordinary retail
houses and smaller industries. II can read
lily be seen that although Omaha is pre-
eminently an educational center. having In
addition TO its public schools a university,
medical colleges, dental colleges, business
colleges, law schools, etc. it's greatest at
traction to the business student lies in the
fact that 1t is the place Of all places in the
west to furnish him remunerative employ
ment when his school days are over"

WHIT OPPOSES MARRIAGES
Says Misery Certain to Ensue when
Private Takes wife on His
Meager Salary.

Brigadiep General T. ]. Whit, command
ing the Department of the Missouri, in his
annual report to the War department is
rather disposed to discourage the marriage
of soldiers by army chaplains without the
express sanction OF the commanding on
GERS of the posts. He takes this position
on the ground that under paragraph S6i,
army regulations, an army chaplain ex-
ceeds his authority in performing indis-
eliminate marriages of enlisted men with
out the authority Of the post commander.
The marriage of a soldier drter his en-
listment destroys his status" said General
Whit. while the army regulations do
not prohibit the marriage of enlisted men
absolutely, IT distinctly discourages the
practice. Exception is made in the case
OF the noncommissloned stan and senior
noncommissloned officers who are perma-
nent fixtures at army posts. For in such
cases some provision is made for quarters
for that class of married soldiers. But
it is not so with the average enlisted
man. The commanding officer of a post
therefore is the only panty In a position
to grant quarters 10 enlisted men for their
wives and families and he must, OF. ne
cessity, be the best Judge Of the advis-
ability of such marriages.
"A soldier who marries outside the post
or without the consent of his post com
mander or commanding officer does so at
his own risk and cannot be given quarters
Tor his wife at the post His meager pay
Is not sufficient to maintain a family and
consequent misery is certain TO ensue. A
soldier who states at hrs enlistment that
he is not married and It afterwards turns
out that he is married, is amenable to a
general court-martial for fraudulent enlist
ment."

DR.. GRAY HAS THE EAST FADED
Great Horse show Booster Causes
ListIess DevOtees of Fashion TO
Sit Up and Look.

There is only one Atlantic City, state OF
New Jersey L. s. A. But pish tush. CAD
zooksl There is only one DIT. Celestno De
Garno Gray. Yes, the doctor is at Atlantic
City, where the wealth. fashion and beauty
go, and the sea breezes waited inland as
far as Omaha say that the only horse show
director in the world has made all Atlantic
City sit up and take interest. The glory
of the Boardwalk at Atlantic CITY stops
at nothing short Of the circumference OF the
globe and for the last few days DIT. Gray
has been the glory of the Boardwalk He
and his eighty-seven trunks-count 'en.
eighty at Atlantic City and
the spine of every equine in the place
stffened, while tails and heads were ele-
waited just that much higher. For from
New York to san Francisco the Inhabitants,
four and two-footed, know well enough
that It takes the jolly, rotund Celestino to
make a horse show. Celestino is a new one
that blew in with the turban hats and the
year OF the great peace at Portsmouth. It
used to be plain DR.. c. DeGarno Gray out
here. But let's go back to Atlantic City.
Saieth the scribe:
"Dr, Gray makes 1t q rule to change his
attire In it's entirety four times 10 every
twenty-four hours, ranging from an i'm
maculate white flannel yachting suit for the
dinner stroll He is at the Dunlop and finds
the whirl OF .he maddening throng quite
fascinating"
1t is only fair to Omaha to say that this
record of quick sartorial changes was
beaten every day the doctor tarried here
last fall. 1t is nice to think, however, that
Atlantic City is getting the merest trihe
of the good things. Those eighty-seven
trunks are eagerly waited for In Omaha
and the walters will be cheered by this
special article written by DR.. Celestino
specially for The Sunday Bee:
Hope to see you all soon. VIII be with
you September l."
Note the freshness and genial charm of
the doctors voluntary association of him
self with a date. You tear off the August
page from the calendar and behold, you
have September l and DR.. Celestino De
Garno Gray and his eghty-seven trunks
Who is there 10 say that everybody in

TWO MEN CLAIMING ONE NAME
One Under Arrest on the Charge
of ImpersOnRtinR the
other.

A man giving the name of William Law
renee was arrested at the Her Grand last
night by Detectives Mcdonald and Heit-
teldt on charge of being a suspicious
character.
1t is alleged that Lawrence has been
watching the mail addressed to w. ]. Law
renee, travelling salesman for the CONT
mental Bag company of Minneapolis, at
various hotels throughout the west. He
has waited for a time when the real Law
renee was in another part of the country.
and would then go to a hotel and register
under his name, get the letters addressed
to him from the house he represented and
use the letters as an Identification for the
cashing OF checks.
The Lawrence under arrest has been in
Omaha for several days and stopped at the
Drexel, the Paxton, the Murray and the
Her Grand. Friday afternoon he presented
check to Manager Hastings of the Muir
ray for SIS, signed by w. ]. Lawrence, tell
ing Hastings that he represented the Con-
tinental Bag company OF Minneapolis Mr..
Hastings. being well acquainted with the
genuine Lawrence, was suspicious and re-
fused to honor the check. The self-assuned
Lawrence then went to the Her Grand and
yesterday evening tried to get the same
check cashed there. The manager Of the
latter hotel is also acquainted with the
travelling salesman for the bag company
and refused to honor the check and notified
the police. Before leaving the Murray the
man presented a letter from the CONT
mental Bag company addressed to w. ].
Lawrence at hotel In Kansas City as IN
Identification. For this reason the police
believe that the man has been watching
the movements Of the commercial traveller
The real w. J. Lawrence arrived In
Omaha last night from Portland. Ore. and
went TO the Murray hotel. Manager Hast
ings had just written a letter to the bag
company's representative when he came
into the ONCE. Mr.. Lawrence Immediately
went to the police station and his alleged
namesake was vigorously questioned by
Captain Haze. He stoutly denied having
taken any mail other than his own, but
had nothing to say when asked about the
letter from the Continental Bag company
which he presented at the Murray hotel as
an identification.
