The Return.

When Johnnie went away to school
He rigidly comformed to rule.
At first he joined q college frat,
And lost an arm and leg In that.
And then he made the Delta Phis,
Who gouged out one of Johnnis's ayes.
A rush" that launched the college year
Deprived him Of a useful ear.
He was so good, and glad to please,
That Johnnie made the team with ease.
He left hand at Cleveland, c.
A kneecap at st. Louis, Mo;
His strnum cracked at Baltimore
Inferred his nose at Portland, Ore;
At every contest, win or yield.
He left portion on the field.
Thus gradually he was bereft
Till little of the boy was left.
We got his baggage home by rail-
The rest of Johnnie came by mail. j E,

The Eaton town council have refused
a pool room license except upon con-
dition that no liquid refreshments Of
any kind be sold in the pool room. The
council have evidently found trouble in
confining the sale to soft drinks, when
drinks of any kind are permitted. This
is certainly very reasonable way OF
dealing with pool room proprietors who
persist in violating the liquor laws un-
der cover, of their right to sell sof,
drinks.

THANKSGIVING MENUS
Good Things to Eat and How to Pre-.
pare Them.
TIPS FROM SOME CONNo1ssEURs
Dishes sugEested by women who
Know How TO Please the Palate
Of the Most Fastidious
Epfcuren.

There is no menu Of the entire year to
which the housewife devotes the care and
the preliminary attention that she gives
that Of the Thanksgiving dinner. In the
olden days It was the feast day OF the
year and In proportion as the family had
prospered the Thanksgiving dinner was
abundant. Preparation began days before
and the consequences were often felt for
days after. With the advent of scientific
cookery has come a new order Of things
and the table no longer "groans" under a
burden of viands that exceeds even the in
clination Of the family. In place Of this
the modern housewife provides an abund-
ance, but she has a thought for the stom-
achs as well as the palates Of her family,
and the result is a much more satisfac-
tory meal from every standpoint.
There are in Nebraska many organiza-
tions that have for their direct object the
establishment OF better ideals of living.
The departments Of domestic science and
home economies lave come TO be among
the most important in the various educa-
tional institutions Of the state and these
have helped materially to revolutionize the
Thanksgiving dinner.

WICKERSHAM ON COMMERCE
Attorney General Discusses Rate-Mak
ing-Anti- Trust Laws.
AMENDMENTS IN LAW NEEDED
Special Court Should BE treated and
Commission Should Have Power
to Suspend New Rates
for Thirty Days.

KANSAS CITY, Nov. 1e.-Modification of
the interstate commerce act, in order to
secure reasonableness of rates to all and
fairness Of practices in the operation Of
Interstate railroad lines. was suggested by
Attorney General George w. Wlckersham
In an address here tonight at the annual
banquet OF the Commercial club, given in
m Of the signing OF the John
Jay commercial treaty.
Mr.. Wickersham responded to the toast,
The Interstate Commerce Commission"
other guests were Charles S. Deneen,
governor Of Illinois, who spoke on Inland
Waterways" and Rabbi stephen S. Wise
of New York City, who spoke on MUM
cipal Reform"
Mr.. Wickersham said that one Of the
fundamental objections urged to the pres
ent organization and function Of the Inter
state Commerce commission is that it com
hines legislative, administrative and quasi
judicial functions. The present system, he
said, involved constant reversal by the
courts Of orders by the commission, con-
flict Of decisions between the different
courts and much uncertainty in the law.
Other objections which have been made
were mentioned.
The president" said Mr.. Wickersham,
in a speech delivered at Des Moines, Ia,
in September last, enumerated certain sug-
gestions which have been made to meet
these objections. For the purpose Of pre-
venting the conflict Of decisions and the
delays ana uncertainties in the enforce
ment Of the law which now exists 1t is
proposed to create a special tribunal TO be
known as the court, in which
shall be exclusively vested all the jurisdic-
ton now possessed by the circuit and dis
trict courts and the circuit courts Of ap-
peals Of the United states with respect to
the enforcement or review OF orders and
DEGREES Of the Interstate Commerce COM
mission; and that all applications FOR In
functions to restrain orders of the commits
sion be heard by all the judges Of the
court, whose orders and DEGREES shall be
final, except that an appeal may be taken
10 the supreme court Of the United States
from final DEGREES in cases where a con-
stitutIonal question is involved. For the
purpose OF removing the commission from
the position Of prosecutor or litigant 1t is
proposed that all proceedings to enforce
or defend orders Of the Interstate Com
merce commission shall be1 conducted by
the Department OF Justice.
The further suggestions are that the
Interstate act be amended, as
follows:
by providing that the commission be
specifically empowered to review CLASH
ncations, both As to item and grouping.
BY providing that whenever a new rate
or classification shall be filed the commits
sion may by order postpone the date when
Il is to lake effect provided that, within
thirty days alter the date Of such order (a)
a complaint be filed that such rate or
classification is unreasonable or unjust
or 90 the commission itself shall institute
an inquiry into the reasonableness or jus
tee OF such rate or classification.
by providing that the commission may
