BISHOP NICHOLS
MAY Come AGAIN

Bishop William Ford Nichols Of the
diocese of California will probably be
a visitor here next year for the If
tieth anniversary of the founding Of
the Episcopal Church in the islands.
Bishop Nichols came here ten years
ago when the church in the islands
was transferred from Anglican to
American authority. He passed
through again yesterday, a passenger
on the Tenyo Maru, returning from
Europe via the Orient.
A special committee Of Episcopal
churchmen waited on him here and
invited him to come down next year
He declared he would do 50 II possible
and intimated that he might be able
to do so. The committee was compos-
ed of James Wakefield, l.. Tenney
Peck and Robert Cation. and was in
dorsed in its efforts by the church
organizations generally.

Darwin never for one moment con-
cedes that there may be another point
OF view equally right with his own.
His requests to his wife are really
commands she Is well provided for.
but provided for as he dictates: her
Iriends, her occupations. must be Of
his choosing: his interests must be
hers. no matter what old time associa-
tons and friendships hold her back.
He feels she Is married to- q coed. to
an upright. man. and, pulled up In his
self conccit, he tries to improve her to
bring her up to his level, to make al.
other self out of her.
When not engaged In educating her
up to his standards or In bullying her
to do his viii he leaves her alone. She
can read or she can yawn or she can
reflect on his greatness. The fact that
h is working to advance himself in
the world ought to be enough to keep
her heart warm. to keep her contented
as she sits hour after hour alone in
/ the evening listening to the tickin. of
the clock.
How many good" men there are like
Darwin. No wonder women leave them
for the bad ones.
Aid the women In the audience do
some tall thinking. After all. the word
good" is relative tcrm-at least 1t
seems SO to some wives.

AUTOISTS ARE
ANGRY ABOUT IT

Some of the autoists who were nab
bed for speeding by Motorcycle Of
ficer Chiffon are very angry. In each

just fraction over twenty miles an
hour and two of them couldn't go
much faster If they tried, ...
They think they have legitimate
KICK because they. were nailed on a
quiet street In daylight. whereas the
city is full Of speedersN after night
who are never apprehended.
"If the police would pay more at
tention to the drunken chauffeurs who
speed around the business streets at
night. knocking down people and get
scot-free. instead of catching bust
ness men who are on little ssed
streets and going jtst over the limit,
their efforts would be of more real
value" was the declaration of one Of
the victims of Chilton's watch this
morning.

Passes Cut Off for
Railroad Employees

The Interstate Commerce commission Is
out with a ruling that makes 1t pretty
hard for even railroad people to get
transportation on lines other than their
own.
In the past most any person connected
with most any railroad In the country
could go to an official of most any other
railroad and upon making a showing of
employment secure a pass to any point
on that line. After the first of the year
this is all 10 be changed. From that
time on, IL any official or employee of one
road desires to travel over some other
road, that person must make application
through the general passenger agent of
the road for which that employe works.
Then the general passenger agent will
make the request upon some person con-
nected with the road from which the pass
is desired. This person must be one con-
nected with the passenger department and
designated by the Interstate Commerce
commission. Railroad people, especially
those who are not far enough up TO carry
titles, are grieved over the ruling, as they
see in it curtailing of their vacation
and other trips, contending that their SUI
per.or officers will not want TO be an
noyed by being asked to make requests
upon other roads for transportation.

Joseph Dodge Drops
Dead at Noon While
on Way to Lunch

Joseph c. Dodge dropped dead of heart
disease at 1906 o'clock yesterday at
Fourteenth and Farnam streets. He was
Al years old, and was a department man
ager and buyer for Allen Bros His home
was at 2OS3 Maple street At the time OF
his death he was on his way to lunch
with r. b. Comstock. also OF Allen Bros.
Fifteen minutes before he expired Mr.
Dodge called his wife over the telephone
and inquired after the health Of his o.
month-old baby. When told that the
child was doing nicely he expressed his
qualification and said that he would be
home early in the afternoon. When he
dropped he was carried to the Union Pa
cific ticket office, and DR.. Tyler and DR..
Porter called. He was dead when they
arrived. His body was moved to the Gen

When Mr.. Dodge left home in the morn
health and remarked on how well he felt.
All morning while at the office he was
livelier than usual and was joking with
his fellow employees,
He has been in the employ of Allen
Bros. for twenty-eight years. starting
when he was 10 years old as an office
boy. He was born in Omaha, and at the
age OF 2s married Minnie Carey, whose
father died one month ago today. He
was a member of the Travellers associa-

STORES TO OPEN EVENINGS
Early Shopping Move Has Had a
Most Wonderful Effect.
HOLIDAY TRADE IS ENORMOUS
Merchants Say Business IL Far
Ahead of Last Year and An
other Big Week is EK-
peeted This Week.

Omaha stores win be open evenings all
this week to take care Of the Christmas
shoppers.
More early shopping has been done than
in any previous year, say the merchants.
but the holiday trade Is proving enormous
and this week will be a hard one, both
for shoppers and the salespeople. The
merchants desire to have as many people
do their buying in the forenoOns as posi-
bly, can and the street car company re-
quests all afternoon shoppers who can
to start home by 8 o'clock, as after that
hour the cars are likely 70 be crowded to
the limit.
The company is arranging 10 put in
service all the extra cars available dur
ing the busiest hours OF the day. but even
at that the cars will be crowded.
The proposal to close the stores at 8
O'Clock instead Of 10 on Saturday even
ings after the first Of the year, has not
yet assumed definite form, but the retail
trade committee OF the Commercial club
contemplates taking the matter up 10 see
what can be done. The committee
worked on the scheme last summer. but
was blocked by the refusal Of one big
department store to agree on the closing
hour.
The main argument used for earlier
Saturday night closing is that Saturday
Is hard day on saiespeople and they
should be allowed 70 go home by o'clock
az the latest
