mo War;, Says Murphy.

Murphy intimated that the war talk
was all a joke, no matter who may be
elected TO the National League presi-
dency. There was too much at stake,
lie insinuated, for either league to let
personalities disrupt the harmony that
Las existed for the past several years
ard which has made base ball prosperous.
From Murphy's attitude 1t is evident
that the Murphy-Brush-E bbets combine
ton figures on the vote Of Stanley Robi-
son of st. Louis to assure them the
majority. Murphy said he had a con-
ference with the owner of the Cardi-
nails before leaving Chicago. The vote
of Horace Fogel. latest president of the
Phillies, has always been conceded TO
the revolutionists. Murphy emphatically
denied that he was in any way interested
in the Philadelphia club or Fogel But
lie would not deny, in the presence of
August Hermann, that he had offered
to bet the Cincinnati magnate any
:InGunt that Philadelphia would vote
against Heydler. This wager, Mr. Herr
mann declared, was offered before the
news of the transfer of the Phillies was
announced.

OMAHA, Jan. 2-To the Editor of The
Bee: A few days ago / was called to Can
ton, o.. on business. AS l drew near the
handsome city hall on my way up town,
l caught sight Of a large electric device on
top Of that building bearing the motto,
welcome to Canton Being an entire
stranger in the town. this was a most pleas
ing sight. 1t seemed like a personal greet
ing, and a cordial one at that.
Doubtless there may be something Of cal
culation behind such things, but 1 give the
originator OF the idea credit for a kindly
intention. The stranger within our gates
should be made to feel at home when he
comes to town. In my case the little feel
ing helped immensely. 1t was the first inn
preston. and a very good one.
May I suggest that when our welcome
sign is not in use for some special pur-
pose It hall blazon for the motto, "wel-
come to Omaha" Then, perchance. many

Further evidence of Omaha's prosperity

paid in one year by any Omaha or South
corporation. In addition to this the
reserve fund of the association was in
creased to sS5 OOO, and some reduction made
in the cost o fthe association building.
The savings and loan associations of the
city have also assisted very materially in
the city's upbuilding by way OF furnishing
money for new homes. The Conservative
association provided funds for the erection
OF s25 new buildings during the year which
has Just ended. Including building loans,
the Conservative association made over 500
loans the total disbursements in connec-
ton with its real estate loan business
amounting to 81, 1873, 6O7. 40.
The totals OF the Conservative the lst
inst. were So, Sss. ols 10. This is by far the
largest business OF this kim that has ever
been conducted In the middles west.
The officers are particularly pleased with
the fact that the demand for loans was Sc

The action OF the board Of regents OF

age limit for The members of the faculty,
under which all contracts will expire when
the professors become IS years of age. is
probably attributable largely, and Il may
be entirely, to the recent step taken by the
Carnegie Foundation in giving a more rigid
and determinate status to the professors
pensions. All elements Of charity, courtesy
or selection of a type that might en-
barrass the beneficlaries, says the New
York Globe. have been removed by the re-
cent provision that the pension shall be
conferred regardless of the professors
financial condition. whether he is rich,
well-to-do or poor. The pension thus be-
comes In plain effect a deferred salary

instructors and trustees. It should surprise
