MILITARY SCHOOLS HELPFUL.
BETTER Fits YOuns Men for All walks
of Life.

OF Life.
General Frederick Dent Grant, com
mander Of the Department Of the Lakes and
a son Of the late U. S. Grant, expresses
himself as decidedly in favor OF the mill
tary schools, which he says are not only
helpful in the teaching of patriotism. but
in better fitting young men for all the
ak Of life.
you know he said, while talking to a
representative Of a Chicago paper, that
patriotism is largely a matter OF senti-
ment, but not so with discipline OF bust
ness. Patriotism is like religion. 1t lie in
herent. according to the surroundings and
the communities in which the children
are born and raised. Environment has
much to do with patriotism as it has with
religion.
Il tell you why 1 believe In the military
school as a eclde aid in the education
OF the youth Of our land. Military edu-
cation means the incubation Of proper dis
clpllne. The young man is twice equipped
for business who understands the value of
proper discipline. The employers instruc-
tlons or directions to such a man are car
ried out as far as they can be by the man
occupying them.
You see,' continued General Grant, ''the
practice in discipline one has received fits
him in seth mind and body. The dsclplin-
ing of the mind and body OF the student
gives him a better control over himself,
The very fact that he has received this
training enable those that employ him tc
nave more confide noe in him, because he
can be relied on to carry out the orders
that are given to him. Such a man alb
serbs the best thoughts and ideas Of the
men who may be over him and benefit
accordingly. ,

Good Work IL Has Accomplished for
More Than Fourth of Century.

More Than Fourth of Century.
For twenty-five years or more the Young
Mems Christian Association of Omaha
has maintained educational work. During
this time It has been a boon to many
young men. Many names could be given
Of young men and boys who have been
helped to gain an education which resulted
In promotion and higher wages. Men now
prominent in business affairs Of Omaha
nave gained much or nearly all Of their
education at the Y. NJ. c. A. night school,.
Foreign born young men have learned
the language, institutions and American
| customs in such a way that now they are
genuine Americans.
This is the work the educational depart
ment seeks to do with all young men.
II seeks to give an opportunity to every
| ambitious young man to increase his
knowledge along any line that he is in
clined. During the year closing last May,
296 different men and boys took advantage
Of this opportunity. Most of them made
good. Some received promotion; others
we're made more secure in the positions
which they held.
Monday, September 18th, the third year
of night schoo in the new building will
open. Larger plans have been made than
any ANA ESA 49,
requires more than sixteen teachers. These
men are among the best business and pro-
fessional men OF Omaha. They are thor
oughly practical as we'll as interested IN
their work and in young men. Last year
the increase in enrolment over the year
before was g per cent. A large increase
Is expected this year.
The opening night, September 18th, will
be a rally night; all the old students and
those wishing to take work are invited TO
come to the assembly room on the second
floor where they will meet the teachers
and be entertained with music and speeches
by prominent business men. Among the
new classes this year are craftsmanship,
free hand drawing and water colors. Mr..
Albert Rothery, well known as an artist
in Omaha, will give instruction in free
hand drawing, sketching. and water colors.
The class in salesmanship will begin on

Several younE men wish to learn Spanish
and arrangements have been made for a
class to begin Thursday, September 9Th.
This Is not intended Tor a thorough study
OF the language, but for practical, con-
versational study. 1t is Intended to III
a man in . few months so that he may

A financial writer for an eastern paper,
in discussing the usefulness and accom-
~plishments of public service and railroad
commissions, calls attention to the many
duties of such bodies and incidentally
comments upon tho demands OF the New
York Commission for punctuality records
of passenger trains.
"This Innovation continues the writer,
has brought about some surprises. 1t is
perhaps invidious and unpleasant at times
to make comparisons, but in this case, a
proper and honest credit should be given,
because It has been honestly earned. The
writer confesses that he had not always
been favorably disposed toward the Erie.
being unable at times to divorce capital
ization from operation, but a spirit OF fair
ness compels the statement that the Of
ficial records give to the Erie undisputed
first place for punctuality and safety.
This statement to some may seem ex-
aggerated, but it is true nevertheless, de-
spite the jocks and jibs Of the past. Per
haps the humorist did not know the facts
The six months record of the Erie. as
shown by the reports, shows a total OF
43, ia passenger trains, OF which 95 per
cent reached terminals on time. n next
best record is tina OF a competitor which
operated 500 trains, with a punctuality
record of 90 per cent. The Erie is 1 per
cent behind the other road. but operated
eight times more trains.
But the most favorable and agreeable
statement that can be made abou the Erie,
is the fact that 1t has operated more than
100000 passenger trains without a single
fatality to a passenger.
Both records impress the student OF
railroad, operations and finances with thu
fact that the working force is not only
extremely competent and capable. bu
exceedingly careful. as well. of the lives Of

CATHOLIC BISHOP FROM AFRICA
DOUBTS IF ALL PARTY

New York.-Bishop Hugh MacSher-

| Africa. who Is visiting in Brooklyn, is
Of the opinion that not all of the Roose-
welt hunting party will return to this
country alive. and that MIR. Roosevelt
himself Is running a great risk. He
says:
THE sort of places that the party
must go through to get at the game is
against Col. Roosevelt The climate
itself constitutes a danger. There are
swamps. breeding malaria, and low
lying places generally. There is dan
ger Of fever. He may get the sleeping
sickness. Then he will never come
back. This lays hold Of whites as well
as the blacks.
The natives are treacherous and
they are Indispensable as carriers and
guides. They have been known to de-
sert their parties and run away. The
cause OF this is superstitious fear.
What would happen to Mr. Roosevelt
and his companions II they were thus
treated? They would not know their
route In a wild country. ana they would
be unable to carry alone their camping
outfits and food"
Mr.. Roosevelt is just the sort of a
robust man that would succumb among
the first.
Il would not like to predict any
mans death. but fully concur with
the opinion OF Prof. Frederick Starr.
Of the University of Chicago. that 1t is
highly probable not all the party will
return alive" continued the bishop.

stitute n very considerable element of

Miss Greene watched him a mo-

though 1t had its disadvantages; II
did not allow Vernan to remain with

pamphlets on equal suffrage.

said. You sit here and hold court"
He rose and his eyes swept the
chamber. They lighted on Burns, and
an idea suddenly came to him. He
would revenge himself on Burns for
all the Sights of the session.
"Of course you'll have to see Sam

Vernon went over to Burns seat and
touched him on the shoulder.
Come on" he said in a tone of
command. speaking for once from the
altitude of his social superiority. And
for once he was successful. The burly
fellow from the First district stood up
and looked inquiringly.
Come with me-" Vernon said;
there's a Chicago lawyer back here

Burns followed and an instant later
