The league Is arranging for a large num- ber of “good citizenship” meetings, to be held during the next two weeks. Questions concerning the welfare of munici- palities and Omaha in particular will be con- sidered by prominent local speakers. These meetings will be announced In the columns of The Bee. The league is an organization composed of the Christian young people of Omaha and has for its object the educstion of the Christian people of Omaha in the conditions and needs of the city and the r duties as citizens. It aims to arouse the Christian people to a fuller realization of their duties as citizens, and se- cure a more generous support for all munici- | movements which make for the public welfare. Its membership is open to all of whatever nationality, party, creed or sex who desire to stand for those things which are right in the sight of God. It is not an at- tempt to bring the church into politics or to advocate the principles of any political party or faction, but rather to mske the princi- ples which obtain in the religious lives of Christian people operative upon every-day publio affairs. Its methods are: Education—By circulating speclally pre- pared literature treating of the questions of the day. By disseminating information as to time and places for holding caucuses and primaries, and as to the character of men proposed for public office. By hold- ing league meetings at which questions of public interest will be treated by able speakers. Agitation—By the use of the public press. By holding public mass meetings in the in- terest of municipal reform. By urging Christian men to the active discharge of their duties, each in his own party cau- cvs and primary, to the end thai clean an. competent men may be nominated for office. Co-operation—By -uniting Christian people in support of such men and measures as will tend to purify municipal government. The annual membership fee is $1, which will be expended directly in the league's work. The following men comprise the executive committee: President, Jay Burns; general secretary, J. 0. Detweiler; corresponding secretary, J. W. Battin; treas- urer, J. F. Carpenter; Rev. W. P. Hellings, Arthur P. Chase, L. M. Nevin. Ttoms of Mothodist News. The semi-annual reunion and dinner of the First Methodist church will take place next Thursday, September 27, at 6 p. m. The entire membership of the church will sit down to dinner together, after which there will be reports, toasts, speeches and general introductions. This s a novel feature of church life, and the membership are looking forward to the occasion with a great deal of pleasure. Sunday morning a large class of fifty or sixty probationers will be received into full connecticn at the First Methodist church. In the evening the pastor will preach on a subject which is just now of great interest, “The City."” Arrangements are being made throughout the city by the Methodists for the enter- tainment of the North Nebraska annual con- ference, which meets here October 4. Bishop Andrews will be present and preside. He will be the guest of F. C. Grable at the Paxton hotel. Vermont Street Methodist church of Quiney, Ill, to which Rev. W. K. Beans, pastor of Trinity Methodist chureh in this city has Dbeen called, s one of churches in-Illinois, and its pulpit is of com- manding eminence. The position at Vermont Street was made vacant by tne death of Dr. T. B. Hilton, who was formerly a minister in Nebraska. Rev. and Mrs. Frank Crane tendered u very pleasant reception to tha ladies of their congregation in the parlors of the church last Saturday afternoon, About 100 ladles were present. Delightful refreshments wer> served, and all enjoyed the occasion. Hereafter the evening services at the First Methodist church will begin at 7:30, Major Halford’s bible class at the First Methodist_church is meeting with continued sucoess. It is still the largest bible closs in the city. Major Halford ns an I'xponnder. An Omaha special to the Chicago Record says: Speaking of churches reminds me that Elijah Halford's bible class has become one of the great institutions of the town. When he lived in Indianapolis and edited the Journal for Hon. John C. New, Lije had a bible class in the Methodist church tha was almost as large as the average attend- ance at morning service. On rainy Sun- days, or during the hot weather, when the brethren didn't feel well enough to go to church, they could always be depended upon to_turn up after the benediction for Sunday school and l'sten to Lije Halford expound the scriptures, &3 he could do better than any preacher or layman south of the Wabash river. When he went to Wash- ington that bible class disintegrated, and Life didn’t start cne there because he was 50 burdened with the cares of state, But when he went to Omaba as a brand-new major and paymaster in the army the first thing he did after getting measured for his uniform and unpacking his trank was to organize a class in the First Methodist church that isn't equaled for numbers and general intelligence—except, perhaps, by the one Mr. Wapamsker conducts in Phila- delphia—in the whole land. There are 235 members—all men—and some of the wisest and most learned of the population answer “hera” as Lije calls the roll every Sunday morning. No fatigue or business engage- men(s, no storm or cold or heat, can keep them ‘away, for when Lije Haiford com- mences to expound scriptures it is worlh gong a long journey to hear him talk. First Daptist Young People. A very Interesting program has been pre- pared by the literary and mission committee, in connection with the Young People's so- clety of the First Baptist church, for next Friday evening, September 28. The subject for the evening is: ““Baptist Educational In- stitutions.”” There will be papers on “Theo- logical Seminaries,” “Universities and Col- leges,” “‘Educational Work of the Baptist Home Mission Soclety” and a letter from Mr. Hull concerning the University of Chicago. Al are cordially invited to attend this meet- ing. Rev. Henry L. Morchouse, fleld sscrafary of the Baptist Home Misslon society, pased through the clty last week.

McMillan received his commis- sion as postmaster yesterday, and on Monday morning will take full possession of the office. The work of invoicing the stock has already begun. Mr. McMillan was appointed about two months ago. He has made his home in South Omaha for the last seven years, and has always taken an active part in demo- cratic politics. His appointment Is said to have been through the recommendation of Secretary Morton. He is thoroughly com- petent to fill the position. When seen by The Bee man last evening, he said that for the present he would not make a single change in the office force. Dr. J. M. Glasgow, the retiring postmaster, was lucky enough to serve out a little more than a four-year term. He gave the office his personal supervision, and was surrounded by a corps of men who were careful, obliging and competent. The doctor is one of the ploneer citizens, and is as popular a_man as there Is In South Omaha today. The men who have been associated with him during his administration speak well of the manner in which Dr. Glasgow has treated them. m, m, Service, Indian Skelotons Found. While. excavating for the foundation for the new Bohemlan Catholic ehurch, at Twenty-s¢cond and Wyman streets, yester- day, the workmen discovered a number of skulls and skeletons, In ome place there were skulls of four adults and one baby. The distinction could readily be made by the teeth and size of the bones. The fact that there were beads lying near the bones gives strength to the supposition that at one time this spot was an Indian burying ground There ar: men who have lived in this vicinity for the last twenty-nine years, and they say that there never was a burying grovnd for Indians at that place within that perfod. There was no indication that cof- fins or boxes of any sort had been used, and nearly every one of the skeletons indicated that the bodies had been placed there in a ting position. The baby bones were lying close to those of a grown person, who might I been the mother. The skulls were picked up by those who will keep them as relics of the very early days of South Omaha, One skeleton was partially petrified. For Council s Shoes. Clinton Morgan, it is sald, will be nom- inated at the council meeting next Monday night by Mayor Johnston to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of W. M. Wood. Mr. Morgan has been an active worker in the democratic ranks for years and has a host of friends. The general expression of the property holders in the ward is that no better selection could be made by the mayor. It Is openly asserted, however, by certain members of the council, that Mr. Morgan cannot be confirmed. The members refuse to state why they are opposed to Mr .Morgan. The friends of Mr. J. G. Irvine are urging his appointment in case Mr. Morgan does not succeed. Mr. Irvine is employed by the Cudahy company and is a democratic rustler. There are others who would like to be ap- pointed, but men who claim to know say that Mr. Morgan's name will be the first one sent in by the mayor. Are Representative Democrats. The South Omaha part of the delegation selected by the democratic county convention yesterday to the state convention is ad- mitted by the business men of South Omaha to be the best ever chosen to represent the Magle City in a democratic convention. The delegates are all reputable business men who have the confidence and respect of the entire community. While they are staunch democrats, not a single one of them is in favor of allowing the conventlon to put up a straw man, and thus advance the opportunities of Majors. One of Majors' henchmen here said: ““That convention yes- terday knocked Majors out of any possible show to carry Douglas county.” Two Broken Arms, Dr. Berry had two calls - yesterday to set broken arms. The first was Willie Helwick, Who was thrown from his pony and sustained a broken arm. The second was to set the broken arm of J. F. Beyer's little son, who accidently fell from a chair. Magle Clty Gosslo. Quarterly meeting services at the Metho- dist church today. There will be preaching st the Baptist church Sunday morning and evening by Rev. J. 0. Staples. The services at the First Presbyterian church on Sunday morning will be conducted by the women of the church, assisted by Mrs. J. M. Wilson of Omaha. The Ladies' Ald society of the Methodist church will serve dinner and supper at the church Thursday, dioner from 11 a, m. to 2 P. m., supper from 5 to § p. m. Frank Storbak and John Norman, boys from Indlanola, la., were arrested by Officer Deters on the charge of being suspicious characters. They claim to be innocent country lads. The order of the Sunday services at St. Agnes church is as follows: Low mass at 6 a m and 8 a. m; low mass for the Bo- ns of the city at 9:15 & m; catechism 30 p. m.; benediction of the biessed sacrament and the rosary at 3:30 p. m. John Green was arrested yesterday and Judge Christmann gave him a sentence of ten days in the county jail. The police say that Green is a crook. In Omaha he pawned bls coat and vest, and coming to South Omaha gambled his money away. He then got an innocent party to pawn his ring and that money went the same way. He told the police several different stories about his ocoupation and made a desperate effort to secure his release. von s the st vensis wur- | DERFAT FOR SOUTHSIDERS CGompelled to Yield t) the fnwrior Bowling 8kill of Plattsdeut oo Foes, GOT SOLACE IN THE 'NINE-PIN BOUT — Young People's Orchestes) Making Ready for a Concert—Turner Wheelmen Will Go to Bialr—Local German Gossip. The South Side Bowling club struggled herofcally to wrest victory, in the last of the series of match games, from the North Side, or Plattsduetsche club, last Wednesday evening, but as novices they went to defeat before the old timers. It was an exciting game of three and one-half hours' dura- tion, during which vociferated ecstasies of delight alternated at times with hoots, in- vectives even to spectators, until Fritz Mueller's commodfous hall resounded with the noise. Almost every strike made by either side was an occasion for reuewed cheering and exaltation by the rest of the bowler's team, while faddles subjected him to ridicule and a mild Yorm of chastisement. In the same ratio the vpirits of the oppns- ing force fell and rose. The excitement in- creased as the game progressed, and a not inconsiderable amount of betting was done on the result toward the close. This, hew- ever, did not engender bad blood and lead to excesses; on the contrary, the best of feeling prevailed when the participants separated. The bets seemed to be a stimulus rather to renewed efforts on the part of the players, even if they did add to the chagrin in case of failure. The south siders, who had fs- sued the challenge for the scries of match games, while bewailing 'their loss, wore willing to ecredit their opponents with su- perior skill In a ten-pin game, as evidenced by the several medals worn; at the same time they attributed defeat to the genuine amateur proclivities of most of their play- ers, whose breasts are bare of decorations. This latter fact, north enders contend, was balanced by the thorough familiarity upon the particular alleys which the = south- enders enjoyed. TIBKE TOOK THE MEDAL. Harry Tibke was the winner of the medal in the contest over which the Platts- deutsche club exults and their opponents weep, at least this is what Champion Stah- ner of the latter team sald when he presented the medal with compliments. The first team was captained by Willlam Bruhn. Peter Fehrs occupled the same position for the southenders. George Rahn acted as um- pire, and George Zimmer and Emil Scume were the scorers. William Kopke and Fritz Mueller were the first opponents who took position on the alleys, both making an in- ferior score, with the latter leading by two points. Willlam Butt and Otto Mueller fol- lowed with a like score. When Harry Tibke and Ed Fehrs had delivered their balls tho South Side was still fgtther four points ahead. This was increased to eleven when Henry Schroeder and Lorenzo Dow Pickard had done rolling. The Sdnth Siders smiled audibly by this time, ‘which did not per- ceptibly decrease after’the third balls of Peter Schroeder and Fred Henrichsen. Theo- dore Heuck was doubly worsted by Charles Stahmer;. his spare bing’ discounted by a strike. ‘The Plattsdeutscher, for the first time in this inning, forgsd'to the front with Herman Beselin making a strike, while Willlam Kieck made awkward deliveries, which netted him only fivé. ~ John Busch and George Hinz, who was! subtituted for Peter BElsasser, did not effectiimuch of a change in the score, but with /the ninth and last call of Charles Rumohr and Fred Arm- brust, the former deliverti his first ball in a manner which Ardused enthusiasm, making a strike, while! the ‘latter had to be satisfied with o break ‘on'‘three deliveries. The second inning was started aispiciously again by the South Side team, F. Mueller counting a spare and Fehrs a strike to one spare for Bu't. 'In the latter part Beselin added considerably to his score by anothier spare, which was counterbalanced to some extent by another one from Hinz, The third inning closed with an equal number of strikes and spares for both _sides, Schroeder and Baselin making the former for the Northenders and Henrichsen and Stahmer for the South Side. IT GROWS DECISIVE. The contest in the fourth inning opensd and continued in favor of the semi-profes- slonals from the north, Kopke leading off with a clearing of the boards on his first round. Schroeder imitated his example and Tibke, Peter Schroeder, Heuck, Beselin and Busch followed with telling spares. All this time the south side team could only record breaks at best. Under these circumstances the for- mer led by more than half & hundred. In the inning which followed slight gains were made by an additional strike for Captain Fehrs' men, though an extra spare had (o be accredited to Bruhn's team. At this point the former were fully aroused to the neces- sity of either winning this game or renounc- ing' claim to the medal, and the sixth inning was concluded by three clearances of the frame on first delivery, in their favor, to the latter's one. Honors were about even in the seventh inning. The succeeding one proved poor for the northsiders, not a single strike being recorded. On th: part of the south side F. Mueller and Henrichsen ex- erted themselves to the extent of two strikes. In the ninth inning the former club went almost out of sight of its competitors by knocking pins right and left, while the latter seemed discouraged and unable to make ‘a single clearance on first balls. It was now almost hopeless for them, but they appeared to regain some of the lost courage, and in the last inning went bravely to battle again. Strikes and spares were even in this,; but the former inning told too heavily against the south siders o give them even a sem- blance of a show. Scorer Seume announced the totals as 1,138 to 1,018, Individually the south side club was able to produce the best scor?, but collectively it fell away behind, especlally in the concluding of the series of games. The games proved interesting, but the aver- age on ten pins is perhaps not fully up to the standard established by eastern clubs of longer practice. Since, however, sport of this character has become quite popular, the clubs feel assured of being able to produce some- thing of still greater attractiveness in future it diligent practising can accomplish this ro- sult. NINE PIN BOUT. The match games were concluded with a ninepin bout, and in this the members of the South Side club collectively took its revenge. They battered down pins, leaving only a lone one, excepting, peehaps, dead. wood upon the frame. This recreafion proved a solace and a healing bakm-to their wounded feelings and bleeding Wea#ts. How they did rub it in on their opponents and with what an apparent delight thgy, applied salt to the sore spots of injured pride, The courage previously” lodged In shoes now soared around pinnaeles. With raptur- ous exclamations they:rsent challenge after challenge to their compgtitiors. One of these issued to Tibke,; the winner of the and accepted by him. The game is to be played next Wednegday for a money consideration and the prige of retreshments. L. D. Pickard was the challenger. In the sixth inning of the last game the South Siders managed to make six out of a possi- ble nine, thereby gaining, three points. From this time until the clogesthe lead was kept by them. Every inning hut one added some- thing to their “score, uptil the scorer pro- claimed 45 points for thein and 39 for the Plattsdeutsches. The joy of the winners wa somewhat dampened when the highest Indi- vidual score was given again to Harry Tibke, who delivered the balls almost to perfection, making eight out of ‘ten nines. The Individua' total score In the tem pin game was as follows: Kopke, 111; Butt, 127; Tibke, 156; M. Schroeder, 142; P, Schroeder, 126; Heuck, 97; Beselin, 149; Busch, 107; Rumohr, 123; ¥.
