Enthusiasm w h en-
Peace Conditions Read

Paris, Nov. 11.-Scenes of the
widest enthusiasm were enacted in
the Chamber of Deputies this after
noon when Premier Clemenceau
read the conditions of the German
armistice. The whole chamber rose
to greet the premier while the gal
leries, in which was a performance
of soldiers in uniform and women,
cheered for several minutes.
Prolonged cheering greeted the
announcement that Alsace-Lorraine
would be occupied and the name of
Marshal Foch, as the signer of the
document, was Justify received.
As soon as the official announce
ment was made of the signing of the
armistice all official buildings, en-
bassies and legations in Paris were
bedecked with flags and church bells
were rung. Workers from Offices
and shops formed professions which
paraded through the principal
streets Of the capital. The march
ers sang allied national hymns and
carried allied flags.

Rail Offices Close AS
Employees and Officials
Join Joyous Crowds

SO far as possible railroad officials
made the occasion holiday for
themselves and employees. The
headquarters remained open until
II o'clock and then everyone went
out to participate in the celebration
of peace. However, prior to this
hour there was little work perform
ed in the Offices, for early in the
morning the marchers from the
streets took possession of the build
ings. Blowing horns and bleating
on anything that would make a
noise, they climbed the stairs and
paraded up and down the corridors.
closed at noon and after that hour,
persons leaving the city bought
their transportation at the depots.
The freight houses closed at
o'clock and from that time on it was
a holiday for officers and employees.
At the Union Pacific shops there
was nothing doing during the day.
In the morning when the men and
women rel orted for work, at the
gate they were informed that this
would be a holiday. With this in
formation they hurried up town
where they joined the rapidly gath
ering crowds and took up the line of
march over the streets.
One of the first crowds to catch
the peace celebration spirit was a
bunch of so girls from the Omaha
Printing company. They reported
for work as usual, but the desire to
do something was so strong that
they could not get down to the per-
Torrance of the regular daily rou-
tine. Quickly donning their wraps
and arming themselves with noise
making instruments, such as tin pans
and horns, they hied to the street to
join the marchers.

Autoists Race to Bring
Mayor Down Town for
Sunrise Peace Speech

The early morning parade milled
up and down Farnam, Harvey and
Douglas streets and at $50 was
halted at Fourteenth and Douglas
streets, where an enterprising youth
mounted the top OF an automobile
and suggested that Mayor Smith
should be brought downtown.
Automobiles raced out to the
mayors home, with the honors 60
ing to Jack Patton, accompanied by
Bess Prince, Ella Markell and Han
nah Olson. The mayor readily as
scented to be escorted downtown to
join the celebrants.
The parade became so congested
on West Farnam street that an au-
tomobilist, in his haste to return for
his wife, rode along the sidewalk
from Nineteenth to Twenty-fourth
streets. Pedestrians deserted the
walks.
A father was observed pushing a
baby cart, with his wife leading two
youngsters. Conventionalities were
forgotten by those who occupied the
running boards of automobiles, some
even climbing inside or getting on
top of the machines. Cars intended
for seven were carrying IS to rs pas
sengers.
Manager Johnson of the Gayety
theater was among the early ones.
He turned on the lights of his the
ater to enliven the event.
William Colfax led community
singing at the court house at q a.
m. and at 4:30 he directed traffic at
Fifteenth and Farnam streets.
