McMenamy will case has at last got into the courts, It got thero yes- terday and went in on an appeal from the de- cision of the probate court. Carrie William- son is the aggrvioved party, and in her‘petition she sets forth the following as her reasons for contesting her father's will: 1. That the paper purpordug to be a will is not the last will and testament of the late John W. MeMenamy., at the papers purporting tobe a will were never executed, published or declared by the deceased as his last will. 3. That at the time the pretended will was made the doctor was not of sound mind und was not possessed of testamentary cap 4. That the making of the said pre will was brought about, and it was put into existence, by fraud, duress aud the unlawful and unduo intluence of one Charles McMen- amy and one Ella Scott, both of whom are benefic s under the document F.

McLaughlin seeks to $1,000 from the Equitable Iife assur pany. During the year 1554 Lllma had a hus- yand, one Andrew F., who had a life insur- ance policy of £,000 in the above named con- pany. Ho made three payments of premium, amounting to §42, and then died. The com- pany was notified of the death and refused to pay and so Mrs. McLaughlin has now brought suit to recover the amount of premium that her husband paid. \ Danicl Turner yosterday commenced suit agninst the American waterworks company, and in his petition he sets forth the fact that he will ask for a judgment of $10,000. He al- leges that during the month of July, 1857, he was employed as night engineer at the old [\umphm tation on the river just above the nion Paciic shops, and that one dark night while he was wandering about the engine room his lantern went out The next step was to take down @ hangiug lamp that was suspended tou feet from the floor, By means of a ladder he reached the lamp, but, in get- ting down, the ladder uvset, the lamp tipped over und 'tho burning oil spread 4 Ao head to his feet.

OMAHA'S SCHOOL E XHIBIT. A Maguificent Showing Made at the Teachers' Convention. The exhibit made by the Omai the national teachers’ association at atiracted a great deal of favorab In the report of the exhibit the St. P Paul Pioncer-Press contained the following: At the high school is found a large amount of fine work in d ng from those of Omaha, St. Paul and Cincinnati. These exhibits ve atiracted the greatest inter on account of the diffcrence in the- he Omaha plan has been to teach the to draw from the object almost n, thereby necessitating the use of perspective and shading from the be- winning. The reason given for this mothod is that large numbers of pupils leave the schools before they reach the high school grades, and although endowed with a few rudiments are without the ability to explain their writing or conservation by means of the s at t. Paul pupil at his first lo pencil. In other words, the plan is proposed to male drawing o medium for the convey- ance of ideas from its earliost use, Conse- quently fromthe lowest grades pupils attempt 10 represent the object as it is, and while the results are,of course, in mast instances crude, by the time the pupils reach the eighth grade they have a notablo facility in sketch- ing anything and everything. Color work is not attempted, the teacher ('lmmmg that in the limited time devoted to drawing in her schools it is better to make the pen- cil a means of expression rather than to leave the pupil 8 slave to such arbitrary rules of color as that purple and yellow go well together when some shades of purple and yellow when com- bined ave absolutely repulsi Judged by the standard of practical results attainablo within the lower grades of hool work, Omaha is well entitled to be proud There are some specimens of manual handieraft at the foot of the sketches, but they wi made by pupils during home hours and were used in any instances as models for drawing. Cincinnati is directly in contrast with Omaha in this branch ol work l‘ullr)\\'m;: the old plan of outlin in the ear! grades, sketches as ‘ound only in the higher grades and pectives are * poorer and shading hard pomparad with the sketehes of the pupils who began the work of reproducing the object itself from their fir lessons., Designs seem to be the copies inthe last exhibition and they are involved in many wondrously beau- tiful patterns. As the meansof producing designers the system is a de s in theory; indeed, it is so in practice; for it is said the school sends on an average a dozen designs every year to factories, but it would seem that it has not initself the power of producing pupils able to do frechand work without much more practice. However, the patterns of wall and dado paper, of mono- grams and fancy designs in colors are beauti- ful inthe extreme as examplos of special work, The point involved in these two reprosentative exhibitions is whether the production of spectalists or the endowment of the pupil with a fair ability to draw 1s the desirable end, and which one will most likely | accomplish the desived result. For this reason teachers have thronged the rooms and discussed without stint the work and the theories underlying. St. Paul's exhibit is large, due doubtless to the fact that there is little dificulty in put- ting the mat in position. In drawing the St. Paul sehool has an unusually fine exhibit, | the work in sepia especially being the finest ever scon at any association meeting. The work in water colors is also unusually bril- liant, and there is little doubt that in color vork the St. Paul exhibit is easily first. The . Louis normal school hus some fine de- E ing in shades, made of colored papor, but not being a publie school, it is hardly just to compare it with others. "The exhibit of the Haunibal, Mo., schools is unusually excell and_especialiy 8o s the result of only year's work, Froma caveful inspection i seems safe to say that Omaha is first in the matter of drawing, Cinciunati equally su- perior in desigus, while St. Paul is abead in sepia work and water colors. e To Nervous Debilitated Men, dus your address wo will send ) ol Voltaic Belt | and Appliances on trial.
