The school teachers who swarmed
in Omaha last week should feel that
their presence here was appreciated,
and their return early and often is
desired. II affords Just as much
qualification to Omaha to have a big
convention held here pronounced an
unqualified success as It does to the
responsible officers OF the organlza-
ton in charge. and If meeting In
Omaha helps to success. that fact
should be recognised.

Men hurry past him in the street
And yield him no regard at all;
Where those whose pride is great compete
He has a place obscure and small;
He humbly serves as best he may
Where giants battle for success,
But at the end of every day
He hurries home to happiness.
Where traffic roars and walls are high
He earns the pittance he receives,
And few men would be gladdened by
The little trtumphs he achieves.
Denied the talents Of the great,
He hurrles home when night arrives
To be a blissful potentate
Among the ones for whom he strives
Men wonder why his look is glad,
Since he Is poor and underpaid.
Obscure, hard-pressed and cheaply clad
He goes to duty, undismayed;
With common gifts, he envles none
The glorieB of supreme success,
For when the days hard work is done
He hurries home to happiness.

OMAHA, Nov. 10--To the Editor Oh
The Bee-Dear Sir: when the Fremont
Herald published an article condemning
the Omaha Land Show, 1 think very
little attention was paid to the criticism
there was a reason for this criticism, and
That Is why little or no attention was
paid to IL: but when a resident OF Omaha
approves OF the sentiment expressed in
THIS article, that reason Is not apparent;
ana do not mean by that, that simply
because q man lives In Omaha. he should
endorse the Omaha Land Show.
most heartily endorse the Omaha
Land Show and hope II may become an
annual exhibit OF the products OF Nc.
braska and other western states. 1 have
selfish interest. l am selling Nebraska
land. want Nebraska advertised in a
practical way. and know OF no better
way than by bringing TO Omaha the
products OF the soil of Nebraska, where
those residing In Omaha and other parts
OF the country may see what Nebraska
land Is producing. Nebraska needs
advertising In Omaha, as well as In New
YORK, and Nebraska need not hesitate to
exhibit alongside OF any other western
state or, for that matter. any state in the
United States, No advertising is as eff
fective as that OF showing actual results,
and when Nebraska wakes up and takes
advantage OF this exceedingly favorable
opportunity to advertise it's products
there need not be any further criticism
about the Omaha Land Show.

any possible uprising on the part OF the

sitlon manifested by the election officers
in the second precinct Of the Fourth ward
where Mrs. Vincent voted-and TO keep
the public record straight. wish to state
that Mrs. Vincent was only asked one
question, and tAat was: did she desire
to voter She expressing that to be her
desire, /, as a member OF the board,
propounded to her the oath prescribed
by the laws Of Nebraska as the same are
printed on card along with other
pertinent information and furnished to

which rendered her ballot. Here Mrs.

dishes and pastry. Mrs. Lawrece has
suggested that lecture on meat would
be better appreciated by the majority
Of women. To carry out the idea Il
would be necessary TO have a butcher
with half carcass present and have
the beef dissected in order TO famil-
iarize those present with the various
cuts to be had at any market. and the
most advantageous method Of treating
the same will be discussed. If the
majority of those present so desire
they viii be given the opportunity
next Saturday to express their opinion
on the matter, after the lecture Be
sides the lecture on meats or frozen
dishes on the afternoon of November 4,
there will be the Bachelor Lecture at
eight 0 clock sharp, also. Mrs. Law
renee will discuss the various dishes
which men are often called upon,

The Shelling of the San Marcos,

film gives a spectacular portrayal of
the destruction of the old battleship.
riddled and sunk by the new sea fighters
in the interest of science and naval
experiment, on the lower Chesapeake
Bay March 22 Every detail of load
ing, reloading and spotting on the
warship New Hampshire, which did
such effective ravage under the effect
i've firing of the gunners, is shown.
Every shot is distinctly seen as it
strikes the water, throwing spray four
hundred feet high. The audience is
thrilled when the shells are distinctly
seen penetrating the sides of the old
warrior, which careens and sinks with
a tremor to the bottom of the gisten-
ing Chesapeake.
The firing of the guns affords a view
Of the most perfect photography ever
taken. The instantaneous discharge
and the belching fire of the cannon
have been caught. A close view is
had of the Texas, showing the gaping
wounds in her decks where the shells
plowed through the steel and iron
work. tearing and tangling everything
into weblike mass. The features of
life and practice of the sailors shown
on the battleship New Hampshire give
the audience general idea of the
service of our Jack rars and naval
heroes.
