Of New York. "A Supreme Grace of Char
Roter," was his subject.
Following the receipt and discussion OF
the commission report on the Relation Of
the Association to Young Men and Boys in
and from the Country" resolutions were
adopted by tho directors and secretaries
embracing the following:
More attention to the careful housing
and handling Of country men and boys
who come to the city; organization of civic
betterment clubs to study city government
and 10 interest in It young men from the
country; closer study OF rural conditions
pertaining to the intellectual, social, phys
ical and religious life OF young men, and
the taking OF such steps deemed advisable
to meet country men on their arrival and
to guide and guard them especially during
their first few months In the city.
The commission reported that 90 per cent
OF the men and boys on the continent live
on farms, in rural communities and VII
lagos. ~Seventy-five per cent of these young
men and boys from the farm go to the
city to make their home. From childhood
they have lived In an atmosphere OF free
dom, unschooled in the ways of the city,
ignorant OF the workings OF the munic
ipaiity and as yet unaware, many OF them,
OF any responsibility" read the report.
We, therefore. believe they challenge our
best thought and endeaVor."

FARM IN COLORADO
Proposition Enlists Cooperation Of
Y. N. @. A. Officers.
CORPORATION TO BE FORMED
Conference Urges Need of Giving
Greater Attention to the Men
and Boys In Town from
the Country.

Following a lively discussion. In which
delegates from every section of the cOnti-
nent took part, the Association OF EN-
plOyed Officers OF the Young Mems Chris
tian association at the Saturday morning
session Of the thlrty-fifth conference finally
adopted a resolution recommending the
formation of a corporation to secure build
ings and proper support for q health farm
in Colorado.
The Denver association has been con-
Quoting this health farm for some time
and the president OF the Colorado assocIa-
ton asked for endorsement OF the propo-
sition, The undertaking was now under
aheadway, he said. and It's SUCCESS depends
upon the approval OF the enterprise from
the association. An appropriation OF 500, =
900 was talked Of, but the Colorado people
did not ask for It and no action was taken.
Eastern Representatives were inclined to
oppose the proposition as not being a part
Of the association work, one suggesting
that II the health farm project was en-
dorsed applications would be received from
every section OF the country for the estab-
lishment of similar enterprises. Several
dNatOry amendments were offered. but the
original resolution Of endorsement finally
prevailed, a standing vote being required
/ 20 settle the matter.
The address Of the morning was deliv-
bred by Rev. Clarence A. Barbour, who
was until recently pastor Of the largest
Baptist church In Buffalo, but who now

new U. P. TRAIN TO SEATTLE
Limited Will Enter Gateway Re-
Gently Opened, Says Lomax.
ALL PLANS ARE NOW COMPLETE
General Passenger Agent of Union
Paeihc from Chicago,
Where He Arranges to In
wade Hill Territory.

The Portland gateway is now open and
the Union Pacific is preparing to install
one of the finest limited trains in the
country to run direct from Chicago to
Portland through Omaha" said E. L.
Lomax, general passenger agent of the
Union Pacific, W h returned Saturday
morning from Chicago where he, with
other Hartman officials has been arrang-
ing foI the new service which will admit
the Union Pacific INTO the Puget sound
territory.
A week g A. L. Mohler, general man
ager and vice president of the Union
Pacific. announced hat an agreement had
been reached whereby the Union Pacific,
the Great Northern and the Northern
Pacific were Jointly to use the Northern
Pacific tracks from Vancouver across the
river from Portland to Tacoma. This an.
nouncement meant that the long drawn
out fight between Hartman and Hill over
the Portland gateway had been settled by
these magnates and that the Union Pacific
would henceforth have an equal chance
at the business of the Puget sound country
with the Hill lines.
The agreement includes freight as well
as passenger business. For years the Hill
lines have had a monopoly of the business
of the Puget Sound country and held on to
that business to the exclusion Of the Har-
riman lines, All sorts Of schemes were
tried to force an entrance into that country,
but all failed until Hartman started out
to build his own line. The Milwaukee also
built from Tacoma to Seattle and as Hill
evidently feared some sort Of a combine
between the Hartman and the milwaukee,
forces and as there was a chance OF his
losing out in the courts anyway, he decided
to settle on the outside and permit stht

DIR. Geo. Heimrod
Loses Sight of
Both Eyes in East
Result Of Explosion While Conducting
Chemical Experiment is To-
tai Blindness.

DR.. George Heimrod, jr., son Of the con-
sui to Switzerland, has lost the sight Of
both eyes through an explosion while con-
Quoting a emil experiment. The in
jury is now believed to be permanent and
lifelong blindness will ensue.
The accident to Dr. Heimrod happened
two weeks ago in New York City, where
he has been an associate in the Rookie
Teller Institute Of Medical Research. The
news has been kept quiet in the hope that,
before his father heard Of II. oculists
might save at least one eye, az for q time
they hoped to do. This now has been
given up.
The tragedy bears the more heavily upon
the Heimrod family, well known as Omaha
residents for many years. because Mrs.
Heimrod. mother Of the blinded man,
died only q few weeks ago. George Helm
rod, jr., and his brother. Alfred, had
planned to sail for Europe. May q, to join
the father in Switzerland and spend the
summer with him. Alfred Heimrod is a
n brother and a college student in
the EAST.
DR.. George Heimrod was born and reared
n Omaha and attended the University OF
Nebraska for two years. Then he went
o Harvard and was graduated with I'M
lsusl distinction. He won a European
fellowship and going abroad continued his
shemical researches and received the de-
yree OF doctor of philosophy.
Returning to this country he became an
instructor for a time in the university at
Lincoln and then was called to New York
to engage in research work exclusively at
the Rockefeller institute.
The accident which has blinded him.
from scientific research a mind which
had already won recognition for unusual
ability.

while it will take considerable time
to prepare this train of luxury for the
