POST PRANDIAL , .
Tlio menu was delicious and was served
In excellent taste. After the cigars were
lighted President Dumont rapped for order
and made a brief address , congratulating the
members of the Commercial club upon the
success of the flret gathering since the sum-
oner vacation. In a few well chosen remarks
ho expressed the thanks of the members of
the club and the citizens of Omaha to the
members of congress , who were the hon
ored guests of the evening , for their able
efforts In pushing through congress the meas.
tires which had been so helpful to Omaha
and the state. Ho then reviewed brlclly
the things which Omaha desires the Ne
braska delegation to work for , among them
being the removal of the discrimination In
foreign countries against the meat products
of thlsi country ; the development of the Eu
ropean , market for Nebraska corn ; the ap
pointment of vice consuls at Omaha for for
eign governments ; better waterways and
cheap transportation to the seaboard for
grain and other products of Nebraska so'l ;
postal savings banks and other Important
measures. After enumerating thesu few dc-
etrcs on the Tart of Nebraska Mr. Dumomt
Introduced John L. Webster as the toastmaster -
master of the , evening.
In 'assuming ' the onice of toastmaster Mr.
Webster paid a neat compliment to the state
and'jto Omaha , to the effect that neither
cou\d \ flourish and prosper without the other.
In an eloquent speech Mr. Webster spoke of
the marvelous .progress which the atato of
Nebraska lias made during a few years. Ho
touched briefly upon the great wealth of the
cornfields of this region , equaling the Klon
dike In the production of the yellow gold.
EXPOSITION INTERESTS.
At the close of his talk the toastmaster
Introduced 0. W. Wattles , president of the
Transml'.slshlppl International Exposition ,
who responded to the toast , "Further Aid
from Ccngress. "
President Wattles launched at once Into
the midst of the subject and reviewed the
facts surrounding the opening of the bids for
the construction of the Government building ,
at which time the plans of the government
exhibit were modified very materially In or
der to bring the building within the amount
appropriated. He advocated an a.proprlatlon
of $25,000 for making a display of the life
paving service of the government and Jjfl.OOO
for making a complete geological exhibition
of the inlinee and minerals of the western
section of the country. Ho spoke at some
length In advocacy of an rddltlonal app oprl' .
Uotti of $100.000 for the purpose of making
an exhibit of the Indian tribes of the coun
try In an ethnological exhibit. The moblllza-
tlcn of the mllltla , which has been under
dlscuseon for some months , was advocated ,
and Mr. Wattles expressed tbo hope that the
members of congress would use their efforts
to secure an appropriation , of $1,000,000 for
carrying out at least a portion of this great
scheme ,
"Other Lands Than Ours" was the next
topic on the bill , with Dudley Smith , com
missioner general to-Great Britain for the
exposition for the response. 'Ho ' was Intro
duced In a happy manner iby the toastmaster -
master and was greeted with a storm of ap
plause. < Mr. ( Smith recounted some of his ex-
porloncea In England and explained tha con
cessions he had secured from the govern
ment authorities In his efforts to Induce the
( English government to appoint a commis
sion to take charge of all English exhibits.
Ho said the English government , as such ,
bad never taken any part , ofllclally. In any
exposition of any other country. All such
action had always been taken < by societies
subsidized iby the government. Ho said the
Board of Trade , a government organization ,
liad taken ( hold cf the exposition for Eng
land and would ibe heard from on the sub
ject. 'Mr. ' Smith also spoke of h ! experi
ence at the Brussels exposition and at
Paris , visiting the situ of the exposition to
bo held In 1000.
"Nebraska at the Exposition" was the sen
timent assigned to Judge William Neville ,
chairman of the Nebraska .Exposition . com
mission. After Indulging In A few pleas
antries the speaker said he would not at
tempt to review the many products and re
sources of the state , with which his hearers
were as familiar as himself , but ho said
there were some of these which < mlght be
discussed iwlth profit. Ho discussed the
beet sugar Industry and expressed the hope
that this most fruitful Industry should re
ceive the assistance to which It Is entitled.
Referring more directly to the exposition the
speaker aeiiuroil his hearers that there
would 'bo ' no rivalry between , the state and
Omaha , ibut all would iio harmonious and
All parts of the section would join In reap
ing the benefit which will accrue from the
great Influx of visitors.

MERCER HEARD FROM.
Congressman David H. Mercer was the
next speaker , the topic assigned to him
being "Nebraska at Washington Past. " In
Introducing him , Tenstmastor Webster pan
the Indefatigable worker for Nebraska a
scries of very neat compliments and "Our
Dave" was greeted with an outbreak of np
plauec which shook the building.
Tlio congrcisman said the verv mode *
suggestions made by the president of the
exposition and the president of the Com
mercial club reminded him of the r mnrks
of n NowVYork congressman who sild , when
the Indian supply depot bill was pass ° d , that
ho believed "Omaha was the natural heir
to the appetite of Chicago.fter n few
other ) pleasantries the speaker paid a tribute
to the work of the Knights of Ak-Sar-Hen
in organization which , ho said , had done
much to dispel the feelings of antagonism
which formerly existed In the surrounding
section against Omaha , and had succeed o,1
n cementing the friendship nnd wnldlng
the Interests of all In this vicinity Into one
common cause. Ho then touched upon the
representation of Nebraska In congress anil
In the various offices of the federal govern
ment lr > the past. In closing the congress
man spoke of the harmony of purpose which
exists among the people of Omaha nnd ex
pressed the conviction that great good will
result from this condition of nffalrs.
"Nebraska at Washington Future , " was
the toait assigned to Nebraska's senior sen
ator , Hon , W. V. Allen. Ho was greeted
with a great burst of applause and cheers.
Ho remarked that , under existing circum
stances , a discussion of Nebraska at Wash
ington In the future was a very delicate sub
ject for him to handle.
Ileforii taking up his subject Senator Allen
paid a high tribute to his predecessor , the ;
ate Senator A. S. Paddock. Speaking of his
'ormer colleague , ex-Senator Manderson , the
speaker said they were antipodal In politics ,
tint no paid him a neat compliment for his
devotion to the Interests of Nebraska and
Dmaha. Senator Allen also complimented
Nebraska's junior senator , Hon. John M.
Thurstou , as r man nho has risen to promi
nence by sheer force of nhlllty and charac
ter. Passing to the lower house of congresa
the speaker spoke of Congressman Mercer
: n , a complimentary manner , expressing com
miseration tor "Dave" because ho "followed
false gods , " but saving that when matters
affecting the Interests of the state were pend
ing In congress politics were forgotten and
all worked together for their common In
terest. The dependence of the prosperity of
3maha upon > the prosperity of the stuto and
: he surrounding ; section wns emphasized by
the speaker , who eloquently depleted the
close relations existing between all sections
anil all classes In the state. "The prosperity
of Omaha means a correep-ndlng Increase of
prosperity In the state , lust as a rise In
the prices of farm products nroduces a
marked effect upon the markets of Omaha.
Our destiny Is a common destiny , whether
we will have U ro or not. "
Speaking of the "modest request" of the
president of the ctpwitlon. the senator said
he would move the national capltol to Omaha
If he had his \vay about It , but he said It
was no easy matter to got a large appropria
tion through congress and" he characterized
the request as rather exorbitant.
Taking up the Item In the naval ac ro-
prlatlcn bill passed by the last congress , pro
viding for the construction of a torpedo boat
at Omaha , the speaker treated the matter
seriously and expressed the conviction that
If this move had been followed up ener
getically a plant could have been established
hero which would have caused the expendi
ture of millions of dollars within the next
twenty years.
Regarding the exposition , Senator Allen
predicted that It will be the means of bring
ing thousands of poodle and hundreds of
thousands of dollars Into this section , from
which all parts of the state , as well as
Omaha , will derive great benefit. In closing ,
the senator spoke eloquently of the common
Interest which should actuate all people of
this section and pledged himself to devote
his best energies to protecting the Interests
of the commonwealth which Is destined to
be one of the foremost states of the union.
"Tho Greater Nebraska" was the senti
ment assigned to Hon. R.-D. Sutherland , the
congressman from the Fifth district. The
genial congressman rapidly won his way Into
the favor of the assembled company. He
said the preceding sicakers had"so thor
oughly covered the subjesr assigned to him
that little seemed to bo left. He spoke brlclly
tmt eloquently of the men who have made
Nebraska famous , and closed by pledging
his hearty co-orieratlon In everything that
will conduce to the growth or prosperity of
the state and Its metropolis.
The T. K. quartet was called on for a
couple of selections , after which the toastmaster -
master Introduced Hon. John M. Thurston ,
'A'10 ' , \vas \ asssned | the sentiment , "The Gate
SENATOR TIIURSTON'S REMARKS.
The Junior senator from Nebraska said It
did his soul good to meet such a gathering of
representative men from all sections of the
state. From such a gathering , he said the
prosperity of the Gate City was assured.
The turn of the tide had come and there
could be no doubt regarding the future prog-
icss of the city. Speaking of the progress
which the state has made , the senator laid
it down as a fact that no people In any bec-
tlon of the world had ever accomplished ah
much or prospered so well during any pe
riod of fifty yeais as the people of Nebraska
during the past fifty years. Regarding the
exposition , the speaker &ild that when the
project was first broached to him he thought
long and bcrlously before agreeing to under
take to assist such a gigantic enterprise ,
but ho said he was convinced that people
who could originate such a project In the
face of the situation that existed at that
time could make a success of anything they
might undertake.
Senator Thurston paid a high compliment
to his colleague , Senator Allen , for his work
In aid of the exposition appropriation. Ho
rather dlscouiaged the hope that any addi
tional appropriation might be secured from
congrcfco for the exposition , but pledged his
best efforts to secure such additional appro
priation as may be obtainable. He declared ,
however , that whether an additional appro
priation Is secuicd or not the exposition Is
an assured success. Ho said ho had trav
eled In all sections of the country during
the past few months and all the people ,
everywhere , seemed to know that a great
exposition Is to be held In Omaha In 1808.
The pe-op'o from all these sections are get
ting ready to come here to the exposition
for a double purpose to visit the exposition
and to see for themselves that the "wave
of prosperity" had actually swept over this
section , and to Invest hero their surplus
capital. Ho predicted that the entire weat
will derive Incalculable benefit from this In
flux of visitors and wraith from the caul.
In conclusion tbo senator took occasion to
deny the rumor that he had any Intention of
taking up bis residence ID any other place
than Omaha.

The city council of South Omaha met the
Omaha legislative body In the committee
room In the city bill last night to discuss
the proposed readjustment of 4ho boundary
line between the two cities that has been
recommended by Tax Commissioner Sackett.
Councllmcn Kelly , narrett , Schultz and Deals
of South Omaha were present and Councilmen -
men Ulngham , Ilechel , Lobcck , Mount and
Karr of Omaha , Lobeck was made chairman
and Commissioner Sackctt briefly outlined the
reasons why the change was desirable. He
produced n plat showing the old line and
also the proposed boundary. This showed
tdat In a number of places the present bound
ary Intersected lots , leaving iJrt , of them In
Omaha and part In South Omaha. When
Improvements were made on the lets It was
almost 'Impossible to make1 an equitable as
sessment.
The proposed change docs not Involve any
radical departure from the old line , U Is
simply designed to run with the lot lines
and each city would lose about as much ter
ritory as It would gain.
The members of both councils were prac
tically agreed In regard to the advisability
of the change from Twenty-fourth street
west. The only complication was on account
of the fact that the city attorney had drawn
the ordinance to provide for the annexation
of Clontarf to Omaha and the members of
wch council showed their liberality by en
thusiastically offering to give Clontnrf to < h
other. The South Omaha ofllclals opined that
they did net want It , and the Omaha councilmen -
men were likewise averse to teirltorlal ac
quisition and the result was that It was de
cided to readjust the remainder of the
boundary and leave Clontarf alone. The
South Omaha olllclala reserved the right to
take the plat and look over the ground today
to see thot no Improvements arc Involved
and If they find the facts as represented the
ordinance making the proposed change will
be passed by the Omaha , council tonlgnt and
a similar ordinance will be passed by the
South Omaha council at the next meeting.

Work on the new union depot Is reported
to be progressing In a most satisfactory
way. The entire structure has now reached
the top of the first Htory and Is dally
growing visibly higher under the hands
of thirty masons and as many assistants.
Contractor Field states that the lAor'.t Is
fully up to th "cheduled time. "The first
floor has been tile slowest to present Its
nppearance , " said Mr. Field , "as there lias
been such a quantity of laying out und
foundation work to do. The enamel bilck
on the entire Interior of the first floor has
also called for especial cure as have the
numerous window arches. Wic smokestack
hns now been nearly disposed of and has
reached a height of forty-two feet above
the stone base. The rampe from the via
duct to trtc track level has also been nearly
completed. From now on , with all the
preliminary work so well In hand , the depot
will nshiimo Its final form with noticeable
rapidity. "
Will . \Hk Firemen to Walt.
City Attorney Connell and Chairman
Durkley of the finance committee of the
council are of the opinion that the firemen
will have to wait until the new levy is made
early In February before they can draw any
more salary. The plan that "was followed to
pay the September and October salaries by
converting the claims into judgments cannot
be repeated because the previous transaction
absorbed all the money that can bo spared
from next year's judgment fund. This leaves
the city no other resource than to compel the
firemen to wait until the new levy Is made.

CARNIVAL NOTES.
The lumber has been ordered for the
warming rooms and the toboggan slide and
work commences upon the construction to
morrow. The contractor has agreed to have
the slide finished within , ten days.
The Boston Store club has a membership
of about 100 members and has already se
lected Its blankets for uniforms and will
commence as soon as possible In making
them up.
Three new clubs have announced them
selves today nt carnival headquarters , mak
ing In all to date twenty , 'with an average
membership of about fifty.
The toboggan slldo will give a speed of
2CO feet a second at the foot , or abut three
miles a minute , which Is fast enough to
suit everybody , but It will be perfectly
eafe.
eafe.Advices
Advices from neighboring cities and towns
are that the carnival fever has become epi
demic and clubs are being formed nearly
everywhere.
The interest taken In everything relating
to the approaching carnival Is phenomenal.
Nothing like the enthusiasm shown hag
over been known In Omaha.
The dealers are selling the Queen Polaris
badges in Ogdcn and Salt Like City , Utah.
Messrs. Norrls & Love are kept busy at
the headquarters. Hotel Mlllard. every min
ute o ! the time.
Voters in The Bee voting contest will re
member that the polls close at 4 p. m. each
day and that the count Is made In , the bunl-
neaa office of The Bee. Parties Interested
in the result are cordially invited to be
present.
The latest addition to the carnival attrac
tions Is the carnival club organized by the
better class of our Afro-American citizens.
In conversation with the managers , Messrs.
Norrls & Love , they stated their desire to
have a day of their own , with a queen and
maids of honor selected from their own
race. This Is a decided novelty , It being
the first Ice carnival club ever formed with
a membership consisting entirely of colored
people.
The Western Passenger association wll !
take up the matter of fixing rates for Ice
carnival week at their next meeting. The
magnitude of 'the ' undertaking was admit
tedly too great for the local organization
to handle and It deemed It proper to bring
It before the parent association.
With good weather carnival week will
show between 300.000 and 400,000 paid ad-
mlssbns. Everything points that way nt the
present time.

structure rad been removed by the order of
the committee on buildings and property
of the city council and the board considered
that It shojld have had a voice In the mat
ter. A number of trees had afro been given

have furnished the department with a con
siderable amount of fuel , Tht matter was
( or investigation.

The confusion of different stories regard
ing the assault upon C. C. Moorcluo'd Sun
day night , In < whtch his Jaw was broken ,
has now 'been ' mostly cleared up. The trou
ble occurred at Shccly station and the blow
was struck 'by Charles Rob'blns , who Is now
In custody ,
Woorehcad and his friend , James Loy , ar
rived In town Saturday from Dunlap , la. ,
to visit Loy's cousin , who Is employed on
Sixteenth street. When they left the lat-
tcr's room It had grown dark and , dazzled
by the lights of n city , the country boys
boarded n Sixteenth street car , thinking
they would be carried to Council Bluffs ,
whore they had engaged rooms. They ar
rived , Instead , at the southwestern terminus
of the Hn3 and were soon lost In the. dfag-
oaal streets of Sheely station. They made
a vnln search for their quarters , thinking
they were In Co.uncll 'Bluffs ' , and presently
met a crowd of young anen , among whom
was Charles Robblns.
What followed varies In different ac-
cnur.ts. Moorebcad sa > s that he and Jits
companion 'Were requested to furnish beer
and on their refusal were assaulted nnd
robbed without ceremony. He received a
heavy blow In the face , 'but nynagod to
escape and iboarded a car. Loy ran In
another direction nnd pursued his wanderIngs -
Ings In the woods for two hours. He finally
found a Council Bluffs car and arrived In
that town where he was arrested as a sus
picious character for being In such a cha
otic condition mentally. iHe described the
location of the trouble at Jefferson square ,
Ninth street and lower Broadway , Council
Bluffs.
The story of Rdbblns relates that he mel
the 'bojs ' In Shccly station and that ono of
them cursed the town and asked to bo di
rected out. He Insists that he had no In
tention of robbing them , but admits that ho
broke Mcorehead's Jaw In the trouble which
