When the new Board of Education is or- ganized one of its first duties will be the gppointment of & truant officer preparatory to enforcing the new compulsory education law of Nebraska. Under the law every school board in the slate must compel children to attend school At least two-thirds of the time sohool Is required to be kept in the district. The time when the truant officer should have been appointed has passed, but the membera of the old board did not care to make a selection and undertake the enforcement of the law when thelr term was about to ex- pire. The enforcement of the compulsory edue tlon law will work a revolution in Omaha business houses. All children between 7 and 14 years of age fall under the provisions of the measure. Some time ago Deputy Labor Commissioner Watson posted placards in all restaurants, factorles and stores setting forth the laws regulating child labor and “stipulating the regulations concerning women employes. The time which these placards must be displayed before action can be brought against an employer has elapsed end Mr. Watsou will return to Omaha In a few days to begin the enforce- ment of the law. Walt Until New Year, It is likely that Mr. Watson and the tru- ant officer will co-operate in their efforts to get young children Into schools. At present the number of children employed In stores and factories is unusually large. No attempts will be made to force the children into school until after the beginning of the Bew year, however, and cousequently the children employed, especially for the holl- day trade, will be allowed to work without interference. The effect which the new law will have upon the attendance of the public schools cannot be estimated very accurately. From figures gathered by the Board of Education 1t has been estimated that between 500 and 1,000 children who fall within the provisions of the new law are not In school. In some sections of the city the number of children of school age who are not in school is very In the low: art of the city the number 18 much greater and (he bulldings in the congested portions of Omaha will be erowded in case the law is strictly enforced. Phillp F. wrote a long letter from What has worn weli and lasted long must be good. This is Nature's law and ap- plies to all things. As against the claims of transient com- petitors and imitators the EXTRACT OF places the stubborn fact '.ut it has been before the public for over thirty years and is to-day preferred beforc all other asticles of its kind, Atlantle, Ta., to Secretary Burgess of the Board of Education deploring the faflure of the board to comply strictly with the pro- visions of the new law and urging that there be no further delay in putting the measure into force. “My heart aches for the poor children who are not enjoying the school privileges to which they are en- titled,” Helse writes. In concludfhg the letter he announces that he is no longer a candldate for truant officer in Omaha and advises that a friend of his be given tho position. Score of Applicants A score of applicants have been besleging the board members, but so far none of the members has expressed any preference. In fast the members have not discussed the appolntment of a truant officer in open meetiog and bave given the matter but little thought. “It is likely that the appointment of a truant officer will be considered at the meeting of the board Monday night,” sall one member of the board. “No cholce will be made until next year, 1 presume. The members of the board with whom I have talked feel that the provisions of the law must be complied with and expect to se- lect a truant officer very shortly.’ The new law makes the failure of parents or guardians to comply with the law a mis- demeanor, which makes it possible to bring violators before a court which may impose | & fine varying from $1 to $10 for each of- | tense, “THE DOG WILL HAVE HIS DAY” Dantel Comes to Judgment in Matters Pertaining to Canine Equity, Litigation over dogs is becoming the or- der of the day. Thursday a case of this kind was settled in a justice court and yes- terday another was tried in police court, but it was not settled, since the losing party forthwith brought action in replevin in Justice Altstadt's tribunal to recover possession of his jimberjawed property. The bone of contention in the second case fs a mongrel cur, worth about 49 cents. Fourteen witnesses testified before Judge Qordon that it was the property of H. W. Cowduroy of the Grant Paving company and slxteen witnesses testified that it belonged to Guorge Lake of South Omaba. Since more witnesses testified for Lake than for Cowduroy, the judge discharged Lake, whom Cowduroy had charged with larceny. Then Cowduroy went to Justice Altatadt's court and swore to & writ of replevin. “You'd better shoot the dog," sald Little Dismarck. “That's what happened to a dog 1 had once and that day I could look my nelghbors in the face for the first time in three month: No Time to Be Miserable.

Beebe & Runyan, after operating in this territory as job- bers of furniture for twenty years, ten of which were at Council Bluffs and ten at Omaha, aave decided to begin as manu- facturers. The firm has secured a lease for pied as a chair factory by Murphy, Wasey & Co. at Thirty-second and Spaulding streets, with the option of purchase at the end of that period. As S00n as arrange- ments can be perfected they will begin the manufacture of a full line of parlor furni- ture, couches, mattresses and springs, with a line of chairs such as were made by the | firm previously using the bullding. The house they secure s partially equipped with machinery for the purpose and additional machinery will be purchased to make the establishment one of the most complete in the west. The firm at present employs fifty-six men as salesmen, packers and office men. This force will be doubled as soon as It moves into the new quarters, two additional travellng men being placed on the road and the other men entering the factory and warehouses. The present ware- house at Fifteenth and Grace streets will be retained for the present and no change will be made in the location of the office. It two years at the new factory bear out the expectations of the firm the property will be purchased and another warehouse built adjoining it, the Grace street house belng discontinued, The other firm which will probably ex- pand in a short time Is that of C. Sommer & Co., plano manufacturers. This firm 18 essentially an Omaha house, having been built up from nothing by its present head. A short time ago an offer was made by Chi- cago and Omaha partics which contemplated the formation of a company with a capltal stock of about $100,000 00 in addition to the present plant, some of the Chicago men to enter the firm actively and the others to lovest capital only. The serious objection offered by Mr. Sommer to the plan was that it contemplated a change in the character of the business. At present the house makes but one grade of planos, in two tyles, and these planos sell for the highest price, having a local reputation of considerable value. The projectors of the new enterprise desired him to make a com- mercial grade which could be sold at wholesale for $150 to §200. This the maker flatly refused to do, and another proposition was submitted which he has under consia- eration, that of making an instrument not bearing his name which can be sold at those prices, contlnuing the manufacture of the Sommer piano at present prices, de~ pending upon the size and style of the case. 1t the change !s made it will result in the employment of about 100 skilled me- chan Pay Twenty-Five Cents and get a pack of highest quality playing cards, having the dainty Washburn baby fluminated back.
