rHAwING 0UT-A SPRING P0ME'

Spring is coming. spring is coming!
On you editors, now listen.
Where the icicles hang f1gid
In the sunlight. all a-glisten,
Soon you'll hear n pitter-patter
That will last. perhaps an hopr,
And the caves will be a-dripping
From the first warm April shower.
Spring Is coming, yes its coming
Oh you queer old weather prophet!
Got the mercury a-coastin'.
Down the tube and couldn't stop II:
Soon the coal will cease to rattle
And TO frolic down the chute
And you'll have 10 be saving
Money for an Easter suit. &
Spring Is coming. yes it's coming
Thought perhaps you didn't know II
And twill sure deserve welcome
From this poor frost-bitten poet.
And aitho' the mercury's slipping
Down the tube there, pretty spry,
Let this one thought. brothers, cheer you
Spring Is coming-by and by.

VIII tfof. 6rummann ENphatE
OMAHA. Jan. i7.--To the Editor OF The
Bee: would like to ask Prof Grum-
mann when the movement for Women's
Suffrage was not conferred on respect
commanding women"
And win he make II clear how II Is that
women are able and do start all great
reforms. and do push them to the extent
Of a demand that the men must and do
meet. IL woman has degenerated from the
position Of founder OF civilization
IL the family should cease to dominate
life the world would be a social chaos.
VIII Prof. Grummann explain what pre-
vents that condition now?
The family Is still the lnvlneible integer
grounded on the divine law of human
happiness and is still as II must always
be. the bulwark OF all social life
The world has more people in II than
It ever had and II Is becoming much more
alive TO its mistakes and less tolerant
Of them than ever before. This is not
because the foundations Of society are
crumblinE. but because there Is 80 much
In the superstructure that does not meas
ure up TO the standard OF the good
women whom everybody respects or TO
the dominant family life Of father.
mother and children. that cries for and
demands better living for the masses.
We have not lost the leayen Of real.
clean civilization; we are only setting II
to work TO leaven the whole world and
the good women are the mixers of the
mighty leaven.
Social service work Is making tremen-
dous hounds and while there are those
whose enthusiasm Is greater than their
Judgment II Is unique to find fault with
people for trying new work when they
have not succeeded in former efforts.

ought 20 eliminate one of the worst
features in modern politics.
President Taft shows a courage
and fidelity that are needed in the
White House in premulgating this
program, and 1t now remains for con-
gIess to prove its good faith. 1t is
scarcely conceivable that the rankest
political antagonism could inspire op-
position to the Plan. Viewed in its
broadest light and possibilities 1t is
of revolutionary character, but those
who have taken the president at his
word are fully prepared for IT.

The announcement from Rome OF
the selection OF the Rev. Patrick A.
McGoyern OF Omaha for the vacant
bishoprIc Of the Roman Catholic do
cese OF Cheyenne, Wyo,. will be re-
eeived by the people OF his native
city with mingled feelings Of regret
and pleasure. To those who have
been associated with him In minis
tcrial and civic activities comes the
natural regret at parting with a
forceful. energetic and devoted
clergyman and citizen. whose unaf-
fected zeal and simplicity made his
influence for good felt beyond the
boundaries OF his Congregation,
The success that has attended his
labors In Omaha during the Last fif-
teen years long ago attracted the
attention OF his superiors. which
awaited the proper opportunity to
manifest itself In recognition and re-
ward. Regret is therefore tempered
by the pleasure OF promotion wisely
bestowed.

HORSE PLAYS BIRD
Leaps From Bridge on Top Of
Passenger Coach
Unhurt.

Chattanooga, Tenn, Feb. q. -
The unusual sight of a horse
leaping from a bridge, alighting
on top of a passenger coach
while the train was running
thirty-fve miles an hour, falling
to the ground, Immediately
scrambling to its feet and rum
ming away, is what was witness
ed by passengers and crew on
train No. y, on the Cincinnati
Southern railway in the city
yards here. The horse had been
frightened by Southern rail-
way train and had taken to the
concrete bridge which spans the
track of the Cincinnati Southern.
AS the animal came to the GEN.
ter of the bridge the Cincinnati
train passed under the structure
at a rapid rate of speed. The
frightened animal sprang far
clear of the bridge. Alighting
squarely on his feet on the roof
of a coach. He staggered about
like a brakeman who had lost his
balance, fell heavily to the roof,
rolled to the edge and fell into
space. AS he went he kicked
the ventilators out of the car
and in passing a window on his
way down his feet crashed
through the glass. taking the
window out, sash and all.
The train was stopped and
backed to the spot where the
horse had fallen. The animal
was lying as if dead when the
train crew reached him. Flag
man J. r. Ford was first to
reach the PROSTATE animal and
was startled to see the beast leap
to his feet and start to run. APP
parently, from the manner in
which the horse made its get
away, it was none the worse for
the peculiar experience.
The vner of the horse has
not been located.
