GRADUATES OF CREIGHTON Eleven Young Men Take Their Degrees at University Hall, MOKE PRIZES WON BY CLASS MEMBERS Edward F. Leary and Linus A. Lilly in Competition Open six Successtu Studen Colleges. to of At Creighton univereity hall Friday night eleven young men in academic caps and gowns received from the hand of Bishop Scannell diplomas bearing testitmony that finished the course of study in that institution, and were ready to enter upon the sterner duties of life. Both pit and gallerles of the hall were filled with relatives and friends of the graduates. The inter- persed with vocal and instrumental music, | and closed with the address ot Bishop Scan- | mell The degree of master of arts was con- ferred upon Andrew M. Flynn, and the degree of bachelor of arts was conferred upon Weir D. Coffmas, Willlam F. Condon, James P. Lane, J. Frederick Langdon, Ed- ward F. Leary, Willlam P. Lynch, Hugh A McCaftery, William J. McCaffery, James H McShane and John E. Quinn, Welr D. Coffman was valedictorian of the class, and delivered his oration with an easy and natural grace. ‘“We do not pre- tend to revolutionize the universe, as the comic papers charge us,” said he, “but we are determined to play in life, if not a heroic, at least a manly and Christian part.” Panegyrie of America. “Gems in the Crown of America” was the subject of J. Frederick Langdon's ora- tion, and, ae the title indicates, the ad- dress was a ringing panegyric of America and American institutions. It was evi- dent that Mr. Langdon Is patriotic in the most comprehensive sense of the term. He tollowed by Edward F. Leary, who, in “Some Flaws in the Masterpiece,” looked upon the cobweb side of the brillliant ple- ture his predecessor had painted. He saw many things in the federal, state and mu- nicipal affairs of the nation which, in his opinion, were scarcely consonant with the lofty ideals of the early patriots. A quartet comprising Charles P. Mori- arity, Francis C. McGinn, Louls P. Busw. man and James C. Swift, sung “Pale in the Amber West,” and responded to a hearty encore, Willlam J. McCaffery theme, “Individual Character,” in which he emphasized the Importance of early tralaing, and Willlam P. Lynch followed with “Religlon, the Basis of Character.” Mr. Lynch gave the church credit for fur- nishing the common laws of England, and for supplylng the fundamental principles of modern civilization. Willlam F. Condon devoted his remarks to Pope Leo XIII, ex- tolling him as one of the greatest factors for good of the present day. The University orchestra, seven members of which were also members of the grad- uating class, played, on mandolins, the waltz, “Nur Ein Traum,” with a plano accompaniment. spoke from the Diplomas, Medals and Honor. Rev. M. P. Dowling, president of the uni- versity, then read the text of the diplomas, both In Latin and English, after which they were presented to the graduates by Bishop Scannell. Medals and honors were then conferred by Bishop Scannell, the recipients kneeling to recelve them. The gdld medal for the highest honors of the class of 1502 was conterred upon Edward F. Leary. The gold medal for excellence in elocution in the colleglate department was given to William A. Schall, and the gold medal fn the academic department to Joseph Donuelly. In the class of rhetoric the gold medal for the highest average in the collective branches of the class was merited by Thomas A. Kelly. The highest honors in this branch went te Alexander F. O'Hern and James M. Fitzgerald. It was announced that Edward F. Leary bad won the first prize of $75 for the best composition on the subject, “Duties of the Cathollc Amerlcan Layman in Regard to Higher Education,” offered by D. E. Brem- ner of Chicago, and that the second prize of $25 had been won by Linus A. Lilly, also of Creighton university. Students of slx other colleges and universities of the mid- dlo west had contested for these prizes. The honor of representing Creighton uni- versity in the contest of the Nebraska Col- leglate Oratorical association fell to James E. Woodard. Bishop Scannel Addre; After the announcement of the honors and conferring of the medals Bishop Scan- nell was introduced. He congratulated’ the graduates upon completing their course of study, and then spoke in part as follow The educated man must know himself, the nature and powers of his mind and the relations in which he stands to the world about him and particularly to his fellow- men. He must know his own moral na- ture and the responsibilities which that nature imposes upon him. In this branch of human knowledge every man is bound to be, to some extent, a speclalist. If it bs important for & man to know the forces of nature and to be able to control them, it is far more important for him to know himselt and to be able to control him- self. A knowledge of ethics, of the differ- ence between right and wrong, every man must have, and this knowledge must be s0 much a part of himself, so ready at hand and so overmastering in its influ- ence as to form and give a complexion and expression to his very habits. Mere knowledge does not command our respect and still less our love. We do not love the brilliancy of the cold, heartless, in- teilectual’ man, but we love the generous, warm-hearted, sympathetic man of whom everyone says that he s a good man. After all, It is not his knowledge, but his habits which make the gentléman. And there, the education which imparts mere knowledge of facts and laws, but does not form good habits, 18 not a true education. It does not form the true man —the strong, generous, true-hearted man— the good man. And, as Tennyson says: “Howe'er it be it seems to me 'tis noble only to be good.” Desirable as all this is, however, it is not enough to complete a man's education, to develop fully all his faculties and to enable him to bring forth the best that is in him. Man is by nature religious; he longs after an immortal life, because he desires to kiow forever and to live forever. He longs after that knowledge that will satisty the needs of his intellect and the good that will satisfy the longings of his heart: but he will attain to neither if he be not the heir to an immortal life, and religlon alone as- sures him that he 13 the heir to such a life and that in it his hopes and his longings will be fully realized. Religion is Necessary. Man's religious nature must be educated and developed and guided aright. Man, to do his best work, must be free and super- patural; truth alone will make him free. Moreover, man, to be what he ought to be, needs pure and lofty motives—motives that will stimulate him and restrain him and that will be stronger and more abiding than any which temporal interests can suggest. Now, religlon alone can supply those high motives. A university, therefore, that excludes trom its curriculum of studles those sub- jects that are necessary above all others to bulld up character and make men strong and potent for good is not a true univer- sity. "It it merely proposes to ltself to make men smart and sharp and ingenious the work it will accomplish will have little value. It may, indeed, stimulate the com- mercial spirit among the people and help them to acquire wealth, but It will never produce noble and disinterested and broad- minded men. It is men strong of hand and stout of heart,'who are also devoted and selfish, that make a nation great. Wealth n never do so, for its tendency is to eaken and corrupt 1} fares the lund, to hastening ills & prey, Where wealth accumulates and decay." With us certainly wealth is accumulat- ing. and accumulating fast. But what abcut the men of our country. especially our public ment Have oyr publ that high regard for true rugged honesty in office which the founders of the republic had? Are the men whom we send to make our iaws real statesmen or mere politiclans? While in office do they labor for the welfare of the state and the nation or for their own welfare and that of thelr party? Do they regard it thelr paramount duty to make wholesome laws, or to distribute the spofls of office among their friends and_political support- ers? Are our public officlals, as a body, honest and incorruptible? ~ Or is honesty in public life “‘an iridescent dream?" Are the manifestoes of our political parties honest promises made to be kept? Of i it true that the public In general—taught by experience—belleve scarcely a word of what these manifestoes say? America fs called the land of the free,and undoubted it Is 80 yet, apd we thank God for it. But how long will it remain the land of the free if its laws be not made and adminis- tered by wise, honest and patriotic men? All history proclaims—not for long. When @ _people prove themselves unworthy of a great trust they will Inevitably be deprived of it; 80 history teaches. An unrestrained #pirit of commercialism, an inordinate love of self and the worship of mammon—let these have their way and the collapee is within measurable diatance of us. Strikes, riots and labor troubles are symptoms in- dicating the lliness of the body politic and warnings of what Is to come Glve us men like the republicans of South Africa, simple, honest, moral and religlous, and the American republic will last as long as the world itself. THIEF FIGHTS PLUCKY WOMAN Wife of Policeman Shields Makes an Effort to Pre- vent Robbery. principles and Unsuccessfal A suit of clothes and $35 in cash were stolen from the house of Policeman Martin Shields, at 1116 Sherman avenue, last night, and the wedding ring torn from the finger of Mrs. Shields at the point of a revolver. Two or perhaps three men were engaged in the crime and they have not yet been apprehended. At about 8 o’clock Mrs. Shields, who was alone in the house, heard a noiss in the kitchen and called out, “Who is there?” Recelving no reply she entered the room to see a man wearing a red Mother Hub- bard dress and a black mask rising up through the trapdoor from the basement. The man seized Mrs. Shields and wrenched her ring from her finger. Mrs. Shields re- sisted and pulled the mask from the man's face, whereupon he drew a revolver and threatened to shoot her. Neighbors hearing the nolse of the struggle came to her as- sistance and the burglar fled. Mrs. Shields, who has but lately been released from a hospital, is badly pros- trated. Her throat and hands are deeply scratched and bruised. She described her assailant as a dark complexioned, heavy- faced man, with dark, sandy moustache and short cropped hair. She did not see the other man, who after assisting his com- panion through the trap door, stood guard before the house. The men entered through a window in the foundation, and in lifting the trap, moved the stove, which partially rested on it, thus alarming Mrs. Shields. The ring taken is engraved “M. §. to Mrs, Shields.” The clothes were later dis- covered by the back yard fence. TOURING JOBBERS ~ RETURN Have a Good Time and Accomplish Good Results in Trade Matters, The special traih bearing the trade ex- cursion of the Commerical club reached the Webhster street station at 12:20 Friday night, and discharged a hilarious band of excursionists who, volcing in chorus for the last time the slogan of the journey, “Oh, how dry I am!" The members of the party were unanim- ously enthusiastic in regard to the good results achieved by the excursion in bring- ing the jobbers of Omaha and South Omaha in closer relation with the Nebraska trade. In every one of the thirty-eight places vis- ited the party recelved a most cordial re- ception, in many towns the streets being decorated and bands and crowds of little girls bearing flowers awaiting the coming of the train. At Stanton the fire depart- ment and militla were in evidence and at Wausa a large property elephant led the procession through the streets. The greatest distances reached by the jobbers were the termini of the New Castle, Bloomfl’ld and Hartington branches of the Omaha road, and Norfolk on the Elkhorn. The party spent the night at Hartington. The longest stop made else- where was for an hour and a half at Nor- folk. FATAL BATTLE OVER CATTLE Cowboys in New Mexico Fight Over Watering Place and Five Are Killed as Result. CHICAGO, June 21.—A speclal to the Record-Herald from El Paso, Texas, says: Stories of two desperate battles tn New Mexico are brought in by couriers from the southwest. City Detective Harould, who has fjust returned from the Merceralblo Apache reservation, tells of a fight between Thomas Page, a 12 years old boy, and six Indians who had killed his father and were looting the house. The lad was armed with a rifle and, concealing himself behind some rocks, killed all of the Indians. The authorities have taken the lad to the res- ervation. From eprings, 300 miles northeast of El Paso comes the story of a fight be- tween “Bud” Lee, who claims to be a descendant of the Virginia Lee's and a gang of cowboys who sought his life. Eight cowboys attempted to ambush Lee and his companion, a man 80 years of age, but the two men heard of the plot. The dispute arose over Lee watering his heard of cattle at the springs, the claim being made that they trampled up the springs and epolled the only watering place for miles around. The battle was with long range repeating rifies and Lee killed five of the cowboys and put the other three to fiight. Lee has surrendered to the sheriff. READ SERVICE FOR THE DEAD Trinity Chapel of Filled to Doors at Fuaeral Late Eugene Agustus Hoffman, NEW YORK, June 21.—In the presence of a distipguished lay and clerical gathering that filled Trinity chapel to the doors, the Eplscopal service for the dead was read tbis afternoon over the body of the late Fugene Augustus Hoffman, dean of the gen- eral theological seminary. The officlating clergyman was Rev. Dr. Morgan Dix, rector of Trinity church, assisted by Rev. W. H. ‘Wibbert, rector of Trinity chapel; Bishops White of Michigan City, Seymour of Spring- fleld, Burgess of Long Island and Worth- icgton of Nebrasks, and Archdeacon T. C. Tiftany of New York. RULING ON EXPRESS LETTERS Thompson Holds Express Co fes May rry Letters for Company Business Only, COLUMBUS, O., June 21.—~Judge Tompson in the United States court today rendered an important decision affecting the right of express companies to carry private letters. The agent of the Pacific Express company at Hewett, O., was charged with violating the postal laws in sending by express mes- enger a letter to the agent at Coshocton, requesting him to purchase certain articles to be shipped by the express company to & patron at Jewett. The court held that the letter was in furtherance of the company’ business and therefore not in violation of the postal lawe AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA Firemen Oomplain of Oondition ef Engi® ¢ House oniTwenty-Fourth, TAX COMMISSIONER SAVES CITY MONEY of South Omaha What the Same Douglas Makes Assessment for About Half Work Costs County, Chiet Etter has called the attention of the city authorities to the condition of fire hall No. 1 on Twenty-fourth street. He aseerts that the bullding has not been kept in repair and that no bath tub has been provided for the men. The city pays $40 a month for this building. Some of the mem- bers of the council have made an Investi- gation and find the conditions as the chiet described. One member of the council sald last night that at the next council meeting the matter would be brought up and that some steps would be taken to remedy the defects alleged or else secure otber quar- ters. One plan suggested is to have some one bulld a fire hall of brick which will make presentable quarters and rent it to the alty for a termn of pears. A member of the council has a contractor in mind who will put up a good substantial brick building on Twenty-fourth street to cost about $6,000 and rent it to the city for $30 a month. This question was brought up several years ago and plans were drawn and prop- ositions submitted by several real estate men. For lack of funds no action was taken and so the matter wae dropped. With an increase in valuation, which is expected this year the amount allowed for fire pur- poses may permit of the entering into a contract such as has been mentioned, Expense Account Filed. City Tax Commissioner Fitzgerald filed an account with the city clerk of the ex- penses of the city assessment just com- pleted. The cost to the city, aside from the tax commissioner's salary, will be $1,098. Ten deputies worked for forty-five days, although some were employed on broken time. Each deputy will be paid at the rate of $3 a day for the time he worked. The same work as done by the tax commis- sloner and his deputies cost the county over $4,000. It Is true the county asses- sors had ty days to work in while Mr. Ftizgerald and his men were compelled to do the same work in forty-five days. Working on Repair: Work was commenced yesterday on the repairs or the remodeling of the fire hall at Thirtleth and R streets. J. M. Toblas has the contract and all work s being done under the direct supervision of the city engineer. It {s expected by the city officials that the fire hall will be ready for oc- cupancy within two weeks. Holts Bound Over. John Holts appeared before Judge King yesterday afternoon on a charge of forgery and he was bound over to the district court in the sum of $500. FaMing to give bonds he will be taken to the county jall to awalt trial. It was proven to the satisfaction of the judge that Holts forged the name of F. Miller to a check for $8.50, which the latter had received from Swift and Company. The check was cashed at a sa- loon. The forgery was discovered when the check was sent to the bank. Wil Sue Miller. Judge Jacob Levy declared to a Bee re- ported last evening that he would sue Au- gust Miller personally for damages he a leges have been done to his property by Miller, who is acting as street foreman without any appointment confirmed by the council. As Miller has never glven any bond, as s required of the balance of the city officials, he is not considered by the courts as holding a city office and there- fore, Judge Levy says, the suit is to be brought against Miller as a citizen. Change in Organization. On July 1 the title of the South Omaha Brewing company will be changed to tho Jetter Brewing company. Balthas Jetter will hereafter be the sole owner of the brewing plant. Within a few days the re- organized company will let contracts for the construction of a brick bullding at the southeast corner of Twenty-fifth and N streets to cost not less than $6,000. A contract has already been let for the erec- tion of a two-story frame building at Thir- teenth and Missourl avenue to cast $2,000. Bee Hive Lodge.

Willlam Allen of Bancroft, Neb., had four §10 goldpleces stolen from his purse while in a resort in the Third ward last night and accused his companion, May Morris, of the theft. She denied taking the money and dared him to call a policeman. Bancroft took the woman to the street, there meeting another man, and asked the stranger to call a policeman. The latter replied, “No, I'll watch the woman; you get the policeman.”” This Bennett did and the woman and the accommodating stranger were brought to the station in the atrol wagon.

EMPEROR ON INDUSTRY In Address at Krefeld Says He Haa Done All He to Upe bulld German Empire, Can KREFELD, Prussia, June 21.—Emperor Willlam came to this city today from Aix la Chapelle. He was welcomed by the chiet burgomaster of Krefeld and fn his reply to an address delivered by this official his majesty referred to the city's industrial development. He sald Industry flourished only when a powerful scepter preserved the peace of the world and that this he and his predecessors had striven their ut- most to maintain. “With the creation of the German em- pire,” continued the emperor, “‘a power was created which enables Europe to follow her purusits in peace and quiet. The army protects the country, but the people must understand that a powerful navy s neces- eary to protect our commercial flag.” In conclusion, his majesty said he be- leved that he had done the best thing for trade and industry be devoting his whole strength to the development of Germany's sea power and expressed his conviction that every nmew ship added to the German navy Increased the guarantee of peace, IT DEFENDS KING EDWARD London Turf Publication Takes Up Criticiam Against Ruler for His Devotion to Racing, LONDON, June 21.—in an editorial articlo The Field defends King Edward from the accusation of unseemly devotion to racing. The paper considers it only right and proper that a monarch should assoclate himself with the amusements of his people, and that it is largely on this account that the king, like his mother before him, is held in such high honor. The Field refers aléo to the increasing vogue of polo as a soclal function and to his majesty's recent visit to Ranelagh (to witness the second contest between the Amerlcan and British polo teams for the international cup) as the first time a reigning monarch has witnessed a polo match. The paper expresses its bellef that the American polo players have agreeable recollections of their visit and says that the mext British polo team visiting the United States will have dificulty in holding the cup. PROTEST AGAINST WILLIAMS Prominent New York Men Do Not Like Action of Commissioner in Feeding Immigrants. WASHINGTON, June 21.—President Roosevelt today granted a hearing to a number of New York men who made a protest against the recommendations of Commissioner of Immigration Williams in the matter of letting of contracts for the feeding of immigrants at Ellis Island, the changing of money and for their transpor- tation. Those composing the committee were Congresemen Lessler and Littauer, Judge Jacob Neu, Henry B. Ketchum and Emil Schwab. Secretary Shaw and Mr. Wil- liams were aleo present. After hearing the principal facts in the case, the president withdrew from the con- ference, leaving Secretary Shaw to conduct the hearing and the result was that Sec- retary Shaw remained firm in his position of accepting Mr., Wllllams' recommenda- tlons. On leaving the White House Judge Neu and Mr. Ketchum sald they would file a vigorous written protest with the presi- dent asking that the action of Commis- sloner Willlams and Secretary Shaw be overruled. It developed during the hearing that Commissioner Willlams had given the contract for feeding the immigrants to two reporters on a New York paper and it was represented that they were not capable of rendering satisfactory service. It was fur- ther represented that they recelved the contract at a figure higher than other bid- ders, HOMEOPATHS CHOOSE COBB After Lively Contest Chicago Man is Elected President of Amer= fcan Institute.
