At the regular meeting of Alpha camp, Woodmen of the World, last Thursday even- ing, the question of giving a picnic June 21, to be participated in by all camps within the Nebraska jurisdiction in celebr: tion of the fourth anniversary of the or- ganization of the order, was very genmerally discussed and strongly advocated. The proclamation from the sovereign camp, de- claring that day a holiday among all Wood- men, will find the members of Alpha camp, as well as all other camps within the juris diction, prepared to celebrate the occasion in becoming style. Full particulars as ‘to place of holding, etc., will be given in next Sunday's Bee. It was decided at that session of the camp, in order to augment the interest in and increase the membership of the camp, to make a tpecial concession and reduce the cost of admission to $3 for the mext thirty days. Sovereigns John Croft and John Lally were appointed special deputies to give this_information and solicit among thosc worthy ones desirous of availing themselves of this special opportunity of being admitted into one of the best insurance and focial organizations in the world. 1 Preparations are being made by the amusement committee of Clan Gordon, No. 63, Order of Scottish clans, for the fifth annual picnic and Caledonian year the place selected is Rlair, and ir much as it has heen decided to give it on the glorious Fourth of July it Is antici- pated that a very large zathering will be there. The citizens of Blair are sparing neithier time nor money for the enjoyment of the Omaha people that day, and Mayor Stewart, who paid the cominittee a visit last week, assured them that so far as Blair was concerned there would be cause for dissatisfaction. The grentest if- ficulty to overcome was tie securing of transportation for the Fourth of July, but through the exertions of Mr. Mitchell, agent of the Northwestern here, two spe- clal trains were engaged for that date, to rdon's leave Omaha at 8:30 and 11 a. m., return- ing from Blair at 6 and 9 p. m.

The Grand Army mission department of evaugelistic work in Grand Army of the Republic posts suggests to Christlan ve erans and pastors that Memorial day week be observed as a week of prayer and evan- gellstic services for veterans, and that as far as practicable the Grand Army of the Republic posts shall conduct these meet- Ings, or if not practicable, that all veterans be urged to attend.

Dr. 0O'Callaghan, now of Little Rock, Ark., being first pastor. The parish consisted of thirty families. Rev. Father Smith of Sacred Heart parish took charge after Dr. O'Cal- laghan left Omaha, but was soon called {o establish a parish in_the north part of the city. Rev. Father Carroll, now pastor of St. Philomena’s cathedral, was next placed in’ charge, and for three years this zealous priest worked carly, late and hard, and suc- ceeded in placing ‘the church in financial prosperity, and saw the parish grow from thirty families to 120 families. Rev. J. J. Callaghan, the present pastor, a young, stirring priest, recognized the incapacity of the church, and at once set about en- larging it. The work is completed, and_ will be blessed and dedicated today. Very Rev. Father Jeannette will bless the church assisted by Very Rev. Father Kelley. A solemn high mass will follow, Rev. Father Carroll being celebrant; Rey. ather Walsh, deacon; Rey. Father Colenari, sub-deacon; Very Rev. Father Kelly, deacon of honor, and Rev. Father Callaghan, master of cere- monies. Rev.

Harry Thornton was arrested yesterday by Officer Heelan charged with vagrancy, For several weeks ' Thornton has been hanging about the corner of Tenth and Dodge straets and yesterday the officer asked him what his business was. He replied he was a glass eater, a human pin cushion, con tortionist, a ‘“iot iron man,” and a few other things that will appear later on. Down in his pants leg the officer noticed a bunch that appeared suspicious and asked what it was. He was told nothing and made a little investigation. He found the package was of some sort of powder and then the young man ylelded and told the officer his troubles. He sald he was thrown out of employment in St. Joseph and came here. He had some friends in South Omaha and made his home with them since coming here. He said that about the first week he came he fell in with a_woman who told him her name was Lizzie Ross. He fell in love with her and he supposed she was quite infatuated with him. All went well for a few days when some one told him she was not true to him and was keeping company with others. This made him feel bad.

Caught by a Clerk. A clever piece of police work was done yesterday afternoon by Roy Moore, one of W. R. Bennett Co.'s salesmen. A crook entered the store and when no one was observing him he snatched up three pairs of pants, valued at $15, and darted out of the rear door into the alley. Moore saw the man running by the shoe depart- ment window, and quick as a flash the nervy clerk sprang through the window and ran the culprit down, recovered the pants and marched the thief back to the store. The crook was taken to headquarters, where he was identified as a Chicago criminal. He gave the name of Walter Burton. On belng searched a pawn ticket was found in his pocket calling for a lot of Jewelry. fe St Marringe Licenses. The following marriage licenses were is- sued yesterday: Name and Address, B. J.
