The talk about the city purchasing Syndi
cate park is being revived It is under
stood that the .South Omaha Land company
will s-l ! the park for $30000 and take low-
interest long time bonds in payment In
reality the city has no park , for little if any
I attention is paid to Highland park , except
' by the park commissioner ? who appear be
fore the city council annually and ask for a
levy for park purpose * Last > ear a half
mill levy was made and this year the com-
mlisioners ask for a mill and a half Im
provements at Highland park are at a stand-
stlll on account of the grading of Twenty-
fifth and Twent-sixth streets. For some
time past petitions have been circulated
acking for a change of grade on these two
streets , which bound the park on the north
and south , but the property owners have
been slow in affixing their signatures As
j = eon a ? these streets are graded the park
commission can go ahead alth its plans , but
not before.
A great many people would like It if the
city owned Syndicate park , and they do not
consider the price now asked unreasonable
A little over two years ago an ati nipt was
made to sell the park to the city and a b'.ll

goods with a view to making selling very simple. Fur instance
Every yard of Dress Goods colored and black will be sold at exactly one-half the
original price. It may increase your temperature to even think of woolen goods when Fahren
heit is trying to bust the bulb. colder days , however , will come but after Friday the Star
Remnant Sale will have gone forever.
At Silk Counter More simple selling All short lengths , whether 500 , 750 , $1.00 or
$2.50 , one round price 35 cents per yard. This lot includes Chinas Japs Failles Taffe
tas , etc. some not one-fourth the regular prices.
Ribbons Laces and Embroideries Everything in remnants regardless of quality just
exactly half the original pi ice.
Wash Goods Seems foolish to do any further price cutting in the face of such selling
as has never been known before in Omaha Stars are smashed to pieces in this department.
Simplicity itself in selling three prices on Remnants of WashGoods 5 cents for some
7 cents for others and 9 cents for the the topknot of quality.
At 5 cents you can buy Remnants of whatever sold as high as 12 cents. At 7 cents
you will find goods that were 15 cents. At 9 cents delighted indeed will be the buyer who
will get a length to suit for this price will include goods that sold at 25 cents and 35 cents
per yard.
yard.At Linen Counter Every remnant of Crash of Damask , etc at just one-half the
original prices. Ladies long ago discovered that the linen business rightfully belongs to us
quality always the highest , prices always the lowest.

A meeting of property owners living In
the vicirity of Twentieth street and Mis
souri avenue will be held some evening this
week to appoint a committee to see what
can be don- toward extending the Thirteenth
street car line to Missouri avenue. Several
of the heavy property owners in that lei -
callty have talked with officials of the
! Omaha Street Railway company in recard
| to the matter and have received considerable
encouragement. At the last conference between -
' tween the interested parties President Mur-
. pby stated that the. line would be extended
as soon as the company secured some old
rails. Now that the line on Sixteenth street
is being relaid the east enders think that
It would be a good time to call Mr. Mur
phy's attention to his promU * The line on
Thirteenth street has been extended to Do
minion street and Missouri avenue is only
about four blocks south of that point.
With an Omaha outlet EO far east the
pressure on the Twenty-fourth street line
will be relieved considerably , and will pro
vide an easy and quick means of reaching
Riverview park. The people living east of
Twenty-fourth street are greatly Interested
in the propon d extension and will do all
. tbev can to induce the street railway officials
! to build it.
There is also a deal on foot to extend
the Q street line to Sarpy Mills. Joe Mail-
ander , the owner of the park there , has of
fered the etreet car people a bonus to ex
tend the line and the matter is being con
sidered. The principal obstacle is the heavy
grade on Q street A petition is now being
circulated among property owners over there
asking the council to change the grade , and
if this to done there will be some hope of
the line being extended out that way.
