John Howard Day
Slips By UnnOticed
in Jails of Omaha

Just what would be done in a prison to
show that it is a legal holiday for the
particular benefit OF prisoners would be
hard to guess. At any rate, there was no
notice in any of the institutions in Omaha
Of the new legal holiday. which received
its first celebration, or neglect Saturday.
John Howard" day was fixed by the last
legislature for September 2, in honor of the
great reformer. who bettered penal condi-
tions in England and all over the world.
1t was deemed fitting by the legislature
that prisoners in every institution in the
state should know something OF this great
man and that TO this end they should be
allowed to observe his birthday. The law
has gone into effect, but as far as Omaha
is concerned John Howard might have
never lived or done his noble work.
At the city and county jalls the prisoners
who are expected to work did the same
work, those that loaf did the same loaf
ing. They had their regular two meals
a day and the pleasant routine of prison
existence was not disturbed in the least.
The prisoners observed the life OF John
Howard by the fact that they were warm
and fairly clean, did not have to fight the
rats for their food or do any OF the other
things that were their lot before John

DR.. 0. 0. Smith Gets
Unanimous Request
to Go to Pierre
Pastor of Congregational Church Here
Receives Flattering Offer from
South Dakota Capital

There is a strong probability that Coun-
Gil Bluffs will lose Rev. DIR. o. o. Smith,
the popular pastor OF the First Congrega-
tional church. A unanimous call has been
extended to him by the First Congre-
gational church at Pierre, S. D., which has
such attractive features that the friends
Of DR.. Smith will feel 10th to urge him to
let II pass. The matter was informally
discussed at an impromptu meeting of the
official board Of the church here after the
services yesterday and DIR. Smith was
urged to let the matter rest for the
present.
The call was wholly unexpected and un-
solicited and grew out of several Incl
dents in addition 70 the wide publicity Dr.
Smith has acquired on the lecture plat
form. When DR.. Riggs and Mr.. Quacken-
bosh, appointed by Masonic lodges of
Pierre to act as the knights Templar escort
for the body of DIR. John Askin. the pastor
OF the Pierre church, who died suddenly
there came here they met Dr. Smith and
exacted a promise that IL he ever came
near Pierre in his platform work he would
consent to occupy the pulpit of their
church for a day. A week ago last Sun
day the Council Bluffs clergyman was able
to fulfill his promise. The congregation
the members was held Thursday evening
and unanimous call was extended, which
reached Dr. Smith Saturday evening
The Pierre church is the strongest in the
state and occupies the same relation to
the other Congregational churches that the
Plymouth church at Des Moines does to
the other Congregational churches of Iowa,
and located at the capital. it gives its pas
tor commanding position among the 200
churches of the state. new ten-room par
sonage, surrounded by beautiful acreage
lawn, cared for by the church sexton, has
just been completed. Arrangements have
also been perfected for the construction Of
a new church building modelled after the
new structure here.
The congregation Of the church includes
all Of the wealthiest men of Pierre. The
five supreme judges OF the state are mem
bers OF the church and congregation, as
we'll as other state officials and the church
feels that above all other things it must
have strong preacher in the pulpit The
salary and perquisites approximate 81 900
per year with unlimited opportunities on
the lecture platform. The months of July
and August are given to the pastor as
vacation months, with the understanding
that he supplies his own pulpit during the
month of July. 1t is but fair to say the
good women of Pierre have heard of the
ideal pastors wife who occupies the par
sonage in Council Bluffs and because Of
this they are especially eager to have the
doctor accept their call.
Every attraction which a church could
hold out has been presented to induce DR..
Smith to consider the call and when in
terviewed yesterday the doctor admitted
that the call makes a strong appeal to
him.
The Pierre church has only had two
pastors and both have died on the field
DR.. Smith has been pastor here for six and
one-half years.
