* - Last night In open session the Board elf
f Fire and Police Commissioners refused to ac
cept the resignation ot John Itedell as chlcl
of the Omaha flro department. In oxccutlvt
tesslon , by a vote of 3 to 2 , thi board do
tllnoii to reinstate W. S. Scavcy as chief ol
police. By unanimous vote Officer Gustafsor
was dismissed from the force for conduct un
becoming a policeman.
The new members , Dcaver and Brown , wen
Installed and Immediately assumed their olfi
clal duties. In retiring Chris Ilartman madi
a few remarks , In which ho stated that h
surrendering his ofllco as commissioner h
did so with a clear conscience , having en
deavored to perlorm his duty at all times
and that as a citizen In the walks of prlvat
llfo he would always bo at the command o
the niw board. He wished his successor
happy term and would do all In his power t
make It such.
A committee from the Commercial clut
consisting of Commissioner John E. Utt , W
A. L. Gibbon , Dan Farrell , Jr. , E. E. Bruce
W. E. Clark and Dudley Smith , called t
present the report of the action of the ex
ccutlvo committee o that organization wit
relation to Chief ItcdcU's resignation. Chali
man Dudley Smith filed the report , wblc
follows :
WATEIl COMPANY 11LAMED.
After a conference with the Board of Fir
and Police Commissioners we are satlslle
that the chief of the lire department ha
the fullest confidence of the board and thn
he Is recognized by the members as a
efficient olilcer nnd that they sincerely n
lirct that he hus seen lit to tender his resit
nation to them.
Your committee further reports that I
IHIB Investigated aa best It could Into til
causes whlcn have led up to the reslgnatlo
of Chief Kedell and have found that hi
dissatisfaction , to a larpe extent , has nrlse
because of the Inadequate facilities for IlKh
mg lire , as well as the deficiency of equlj
ment Iti the lire department. The failure i
the water works company to furnish n
adequate supply of water , oulrit ; to tli
small size of mains distributed thronghoi
the business part of the city , makes It In
possible for the lire department to coi
with a lire in a building of any size after
has once started. To our utter nmazemei
we find that airsomp r' ' " t , . . . ; '
the ' -ea-t urine city the water mains nine
no more than four Inches In diameter , whl
along DouKlas street the main Is only si
Inches In diameter , and we may any thi
from six to eight Inches is the average st ;
of all the mains In the business part <
the city. It wilt therefore be reai
lly seen that when two or three lines <
hose tire attached to the hydrants alor
one of these mains it Is Impossible for wall
enough to bi supplied to give nny pressui
for lire purposes. We also found that tl
lire depaitmcnt had recently been exper
enclng considerable dlfllculty In openli
certain hydrants to which lines of ho :
had been attached , and upon Investigate
made under the direction of the Hoard i
Fire and Police Commissioners It was ill
covered that about ono-hulf of thu 1,4
hydranlB In the city had been permitted
get so much out of lepalr as to be pra
tlcally unlit for servlc' . During this li
spection u number of hydrants were four
from which water would not now after tin
had been opened , duo doubtless to the fm
that rust and dirt had accumulated unl
u' solid body was formed In the pipe. ]
other Instances hydrants were founil whl (
Imd become so rusted that It was itnpossib
to open them. We are Informed that it
the duty of the water works compan
under Its contract with the city , to kei
all of thu loilrants In repair and that th"
present condition is due to the failure
that company to comply with the requlr
inentH or this Contract. The largo BU
paid to the water works company as rent
for these hydrants certainly entitles tl
city to have them maintained In such ord
that they will be ready for use at ai
and all times , as u failure of one of tl
hydrants at a critical time would Impei
thousands of dollars worth of property.
Thu condition of the lire department w
recently examined into by a Joint comml
tee from the city council and this cluli ,
which time that committee was led to li
llcve by the receivers of the water wor
company that the necpssary Improvomer
would be made In the distribution ot wat
mains throughout the business part of t
city so n8 to afford adequate lire protectlc
Owing to their failure to make thes-e li
provcincntB U Is manifestly Impossible f
the tire department to cope with a cnnll
Kratlon if It had oncj gotten a start. Th
facts are leallzed by Chief Kedell and i
think that the present attitude of the wat
works department toward the city , as e'
dcnccd by Its continued failure and refiu
to increase the size of Its mains , as w
as to keep In lopalr the present plant h
to n large extant baen the cause of 1
resignation.
Your committee further reports that
has be n unable to find any dlssatlsfactl
with Chief Uedell , nor docs U tlnd that an
body questions his ability and quullllcatlo
for the position lie holds , und It belles
that he enjoys the confidence and resp (
of all of the people of Omaha. Your coi
mlttee therefore recommends , flrst , that
copy of this report bo sent to the may
and city council , with the request that th
take Bueh steps aa may be necessaiy
remedy the defects existingIn the wal
works service and to procure for the city
adequate water supply for lire protectlc
that a i-omniUtee be appointed to imet wl
the Hoard of Fire and Police Commission )
nt their next regular meeting for the pi
pojie of expressing to said board the con
denes which this club has In Chief Red
and to tcquest that his resignation be r
accepted.

Miss Fannie Arnold , supervisor of music
and Miss Ethel Evans , supervisor of draw
Ing , were recommended to the Board o
Education last evening by the commute
on special Instruction for re-election , the 11 rs
at $140 per month and the second at $11
per month.
The report was not adopted. Three mem
bers of the board , IJandhauer , Lunt am
Hhoades , were absent. The report of th
committee was read by Lowe , and was slgne
by himself , Lower and Burgess ot the fou
members of the committee.
Opposition to the motion of Lowe to BUS
pend the rules and Instruct the secretary t
cast the ballot of the board for the Instruc
tors named was begun by Johnson , whos
motion to divide the question prevallei
Cramblet then moved to refer the recoir
mendatlon as to Miss Arnold back to th
committee , and Plcrson seconded.
Burgess , for the committee , said that
would be useless to refer , as the commltte
had considered all the matters Involved nn
the report had been signed by a majority.
Cramblet called attention to the fact th
three members of the board were absent , an
In the case of so Important a matter as th
election of teachers. Insisted that all shoul
be present. He also referred to the fai
that the member of the committee who ha
not signed the report was absent from tli
meeting , and he should be heard from.
A viva voce vote was taken on the quei
tton to recommit and President Akin declare
the motion carried. Several called for a
pye and nay vote , which resulted : Ayes-
Cramblet , Edwards , Johnson , Knodell , Lowe
Plerson , Akin 7 ; noes Anderson , Burges
Lowe , Thomas , Tukey 5 , and the motlo
was again announced carried.
The same action was taken In the case i
Miss Evans. This was not , however , unt
Lowe raised a point of order , which tl
chairman was reluctant to rtn"'de on befoi
hearlp. " from ' ' " tiu.u'e'y. It was that und
' .iv iJ. the committee on special Instructlt
has no power to recommend teachers , 1
province being simply to report on progni
made In special department and to recon
mend with reference to courses of study.
was admitted that the point had like Impo
respecting the committee on kindergarte
though not to the committee on High schoc
which was specially excepted.
Attorney Powell Interpreted the rule In tl
case , considered In connection with oth
rules applying to special Instruction , to gl'
the power of recommending teachers , ar
the president decided accordingly.
Later on the question of the employme
f at Miss Arnold and Miss Evans came i
again by a resolution by Lowe Instructli
the commltte ? on special Instruction to re
ommend supervisors of music and drawii
at the next meeting. The resolution wi
laid on the table.
Lowe's resolution that the committee <
salaries consider the presnit system of a
vanclng teachers' salaries and recammei
a more equitable one , based on merit at
not length of service , was referred to t !
committee on rules , because the present sy
tern Is provided for In the rules. It wi
announced by Edwards , chairman of th
„ committee , that a revision of the rules w
„ now In progress , and that the point raised wi
under careful consideration , with the recor
mendatlon of a change certain.
Mr. Lowe also submitted a resolution I
structlng the committee on salaries to dra
up a form of teachers' contract for th ? cor
Ing year. It was tabled , but Secretary GUI :
was allowed to urge that action should soi
be taken in the matter if any change w
contemplated , for many teachers had cor
plained to him about the terms of the la
y.ar's contract and Intimated tint they wou
not remain In the schools If again required
sign one like It. The contract stipulates th
the teacher accepts election agreeing to ta
any position assigned and abide by any cnan
In salary.

Italu Water Maker Is Kiilnlng tlioii-
wands of friends every day , ami this
fact Is proved by the testimonials ami
coupriuilutory letters that tire received
by .las. S. Kirk & Co.
It Is seldom that a preparation Is
Klven the people that will do what Ualn
Water Maker will do , yet he perfectly
harmless. As ti rule powders of a de
leterious character are foisted on the
public market ; they are Intended to
Hive economical results , but seldom do ,
for their composition Is of a strong ami
ruinous character.
Hutu Water Maker will break the
hardest water Instantly ; It will also
prevent colors from running in printed
Koods , such as calicos , etc. Kor the
bath Hutu Water Maker Is exquisite ,
as it helps the soap to remove any
superfluous excretions that may ad
here to the body. It Is not a 1:1 easy
preparation whatsoever , and can he
used without stint.
Wo Have Obtained WotiUcrf ill Results
It Prevents Colors From Running.
Mrs. ElKliii wife of J. L. Elgin , man
ager of Cudahy's wholesale meat mar
ket , and residing at 821 ! South Twenty-
llfth avenue , says : "Kirk's Ilalu
Water Maker Is just splendid , and we
have obtained wonderful results from
the use of it In my house. It breaks
thu hardest water and makes It as soft
as rain water. It Is Indeed
a rain water maker. There is no
sediment or curdling of the bluing ,
and the clothes are very nice and soft
after coming from the wash In which
this preparation Is used. It proventn
the colors from running In delicate
fabrics , and every one knows that has
been one of the hardest things to con
lend with. I am glad It has been
placed on the market , and cheerfully
recommend It to all. "
A Well Known Chemist Tries the
Great Preparation. Has no Hcsitau
cy in Recommending It.
Mr. J. C. Cornwell , manufacturing
chemist , with E. E. Bruce & Co. whole
sale drug house , and residing at lioO'J
St. Mary's avenue , said : "I procured
a sample of Kirk's Haiti Water Maker
and took It to my home , where my
Wife and I tested It in several ways ,
It works admirably and the water in
made as soft as can bo by the use of It.
I made no chemical analysis of thu
preparation , but from the tests which
I have given It can say that It Is a
most valuable compound , and I am
satlslled that It will do whatever thu
proprietors claim that It will. I feel
no hesitancy in recommending it to
every ono who Is compelled to use hard
water. "

or sold In bulk. It is on sale at all

Long Pants Boys
Two values of big Hoys' Suits we chorlsh otio nt Sfl.tiO niul
auothcr nt $ o.50.
Good reasons for It too a little amount like Uiat for a coat ,
vest and long pants to nt even n boy of 10 years old Is n credit
with n crown to a umiuigomcnt of a clothing establishment
There are plenty of suits at ? 3.r > 0 , you say ? Quite true fact ,
too ninny for nubile good. 15ut what are they ? Half cotton or
shoddy wool , without wear or apiiwirance.
Our 53.50 suits arc wool clear wool certainly not the best
wool , but however cheap the wool Is worth a dozen cotton , as far
as surety of color , natural wear and respectability of appearance.
Quite an array of light and dark fabrics of cheviots , tweeds
and cassimercs , these $3.50 suits worth $0.00 that's sure.
The $5.50 kind Is pure wool cassltnere rather of the light
shade order small , neat stripes , double-breasted , unusually well
draped. Certainly well worth $8.00. That we guarantee with a
recompeiiee of a new suit gratis. If yon mind to trade with some
fluctuating store you're apt to pay $10.00 for the same kind or ,
rather the same cloth. AVe positively know that no store selling
clothes here has the same thing we have , as far as complete gar
ment Is concerned , rossibly the same cloth , but the balance Is
ever In our favor.
The old Mossbacks who formerly sold you 5-year-
old Furniture and Carpctings and palmed them off us
the latest styles are feeling' vcry sore , und those who
> made you pay $7.00 for an article worth $1.50 find
their occupation gone.
