OMAHA DAILY B.T3E : MOXDAY , .TUNE 5 , 1890. SUNDAY AT THE EXPOSITION Big Orowd on LastFren Day Befbro the Opening Next Month , WONDROUS CHANGES HAVE TAKEN PLACE ArcI'oiinil < o HP In Uxccl Irnt Condition Workmen Himr In -tUiiK Kviry- Iti-nily for July 1. If the Greater America Exposition man agement had collected CO cents from each jicrson Who passed through the gate * yes terday qulto a largo sum would have been added to the surplus In the treasury. How ever , there was no fee collected , for It wan n Jreo day for oil probably the last one , for It Is the purpose now to charge those who visit the grounds , not M much for the col lecting of money , but to keep people out In order that they may not Interfere with the workmen -wlio are busily engaged In putting things In uhapo for the opening day , July 1. Early yesterday morning there were Indi cations of rain , and consequently the crowds were low In starting out toward the cxpo- eiUon grounds , but long before noon the clouds 'broke nnd the sun came out OB warm ns on a balmy morning In spring. From that time until night there was a stream of liumanlty , men , women nnd children con- ctantly passing through the gates. They loaded down the street cars , went on foot nnd In buggies * , while numerous whceSmen ratio up to the gates , checked their vehicles und spent the greater portion of the day In admiring the grounds and the buildings , which norcr looked better. Wondrous changcB have taken place on the exposition grounds during the last week. The grass has been cut njid the lawns and parks are now an green as emerald nnd as smooth aa billiard tables. The trees have taken on a heavy growth of follago nnd furnish considerable shade. The lagoon has liccn filled \\lth water , while the brick arcade has been torn out In a dozen or raoio places nnd great hods of geraniums and other Iloworlng plants placed Inside tha borders of green. Ueccntly all of the walks under the colonnades have been laid with torlck , this material taking the place of the gravel heretofore used. M In Rood Condition. The condition of itho buildings Is something that surprises nearly all Uio visitors to the exposition grounds. It was thought that the staff would not stand the rigors of the Ne braska 'winter ' and fast , fall It was predicted by many that this spring the mammoth utructures would be In. a dilapidated condi tion. Hocwovcr , they nro far from being In any such state. In some places the start pooled off , but men have gone over them , filling the cracks and patching up all of the holes , nnd now "they look almost as bright and fresh as they did one year ago. As yet there are few exhibits here , but word hos been received at the general offices that large quantities have been shipped und In order to bo ready for- their arrival yes terday nearly all of the- officers moved to the grounds , where they will remain until the cloeo of the show , On the main court and the Bluff tract llttlo yet remains to bo done aside from planting a few of the flower beds and plac ing the palms and aquatic plants , most of which are now hero and ready to be turned over to the landscape artist. On. the East amd North midways the work men knew no Sunday yesterday. There the Baw and the hatchet wcro the Instruments that furnished the music and a Hvely tune It was "that they played from early morning until night. Scores of the concessionaries tire hero and they uro hustling to get their ehows ready for the opening day. On these { portions of the grounds the best of the old buildings are .being overhauled and renovated - vatod , while half a dozen new structures nro ; Jn. course of erection , many of them "jafpbr and hotter Uian those of last year. On thbso streets the exposition pcoplo have done considerable work iirv the way of placing new gravel upon the walks and drives. Some Jfew KcatureM. Good progress is being made upon the bioyclo course and race track , and within two weeks It will bo ready for uso. This feature of the exposition occupies the tract used last year by the Indian congress , as 'wen as a greater portion 01 tnc land covered by the barns were the livestock was exhibited. A circular track , three laps to the rollo , is being built. It Is nearly 100 feet wide , raised in the center and sloping gradually to the sides. During the season It'Is tbo Intention to have some world beatIng - Ing races hero , for the winners of which liberal cash prizes will bo hung up. In- aldo tbo race track a largo field will bo constructed for games and athletic sports , which will bo put on at Intervals during the summer. Hero a largo amphitheater will bo built , where these who desire may rcat and at the eamo time view the sports without being compelled to jostle In the crowds that will hang over the fence. The Press building , which was put to Buch good use last Reason for the accom modation of the resident and visiting news paper men , will servo the same purpose this summer. The work of renovating has commenced and when complete It will boone ono of the most homelike places on the grounds. It will bo supplied with now chairs , desks and tables , together with writing material , in order that all news paper people- may bo made to feel perfectly at homo. Just now the Lagoon Is something that Is attracting considerable attention , for If per mission wcro glvon It would bo a paradise for flshormen. During the Tranamlsslsslppl Exposition myriads of carp , croppies , perch , bass and other freshwater fish werp released from the fisheries in the Government build ing nnd placed In the Lagoon. On the crumbs nnd food that found Its way Into the water these flsh thrived nnd grow. Many , however , thought that the flsh would die during the winter , but such was not the case. This spring the flsh are as ravenous as wolves and will tnko any bait thrown to them , Many of them nro from six to nine Inches In length nnd furnish sport for these who hang over the railing nnd watch their unties an they jump after and chase the Insects that happen to fall Into the water , Thomas Thurtnan , deputy sheriff nf Troy , Mo. , anys If everyone In the United Slates Ihould discover the virtue of DoWltt's Witch llazel Balvn for piles , rectal troubles nnd skin diseases , the demand could not lie supplied. Too Much lliiior for Io , John While , an Indian who bus been at tending federal court , became tangled up < wltti J. II. Ilalrd and N. K. G. Pangburn Bunday and was teen unublo to keep on the eldowalk. An alllcor came along and ar rested the trio. The Indian was charged with being drunk nnd the other two with giving him liquor. They will bo turned over to the federal authorities. TRIES TO SEVER WINDPIPE Tom Cnllltift Attempt * in 12ml III * IMvii wllli tilt * Aid of An * Ilnitor. Despondent from the use of liquor , having been on a protracted apreo for several days , Tom Collins , laborer , living at 1510 Mason street , attempted to commit suicide Sunday nftcrnoon at 1 o'clock by cutting his throat with a razor. Ho was unsuccessful and now occupies n cell In the city Jail , charged with drunkenness. Collins entered the barber shop at 720 South Thirteenth street and tried to borrow a razor. His appearance Indicated that ho was under the Influence of liquor and the barber refused his request. Not to bo do- j terred from carrying out his purpose , Col- i llns grabbed up a. rnzor from the sheK and I made ano vicious slash at his throat before the bystanders could Interfere. The razor pierced the skin nnd Initiated rather a pain ful , but by no means serious wound. He was taken to the police station , where City Phy sician Spaldlng dressed the cut. His nerves were unstrung and It will require several days abstinence to bring him out. W. M. Gallagher of Dryan , ! . . says : "Kor forty years I have tried various couga rucdl- ] cities. One Minute Cough Cure Is bent ol ll. " I It relieves Instantly and cures all throat i and lung troubles. AMUSEMENTS. a * . . . Sunday marked the opening of the Crclgh- ton-Orphoum's summer scnson of vaudeville. Not since the opening of the house , carry last wlntur , baa there 'been a bill of as high nv- orago merit ns the ono given Its Initial production Sunday. The strong features of the bill and the ones that made decided hits were the four O'Learys , Musical Dale , George W. Day , the Dillon brothers , Martlncttla and Sutherland and Jessica Duncan. The four O'Learys are the headlines and their specialty consists in acrobatic work by the two male members of the troupt that is exceptionally clever. Musical Dale , as he carls himself , offers ono of the most refined nmuslcal acts that has been seen upon the Orphcum stage. George W. Day , the monologlst , helps to pass away fifteen minutes In a very pleasing manner. His wit is clean and never falls 'to ' produce laughter , whllo his parodies upon "Just Ono Girl" and "Only Ale , " two of the most popular eongs of the day , were big hits. Martlnottla and Sutherland do a comedy singing and acrobatic dancing act that is clover , Martlnottla's Imitations being ridicu lously funny. Another recruit who has entered vaudeville after two scascns on 'the legitimate stage Is Jessica Duncan , who is qulto will known In Omaha society. She Is the daughter of ex- Mayor George Duncan of Burlington , la. Her volco Is a rich , cultivated contralto and the three songs which she sings with ex- qulslto taste and expression have the ad vantage of being now. Ono of them "Mandy Lame , " promises to become quite popular. The Dillon brothers do a talking and sing ing at that Is up to date. Dora and Mabel Swcarlngen and Llllle Kauble , the thrco teal young women who recently made their debut upon the stage , complete "tho bill. The distinct features of this week's vaudeville bill nt the Trocadero are the acts of the five Carnallas and William De Boo. The Cnrnalla troupe consists of thrco men nnd two women , who offer an acrobatic specialty that Is as clever as has been seen hero during the season. William Do Boc , who styles blmsclf the upsldo down man , does some head balanc ing upon n trapeze that is certainly con trary to all laws of equilibrium. Bartlett and May offer a laugh-provoking .turn , In which Mr. Bartlett presents a German character study that is true to life. Ho Is also quite a contortionist and the use he puts his long , lithe limbs to produces some hearty laughter. Edward Garvlo nnd Mollle Thompson , the former until recently a star In Hoyt's "A Black Sheep" company , offer a sketch en titled "The Missionary , " In whlcti they In- tioduco some clever singing and dancing. The balance of the bill Includes Joy nnd Clayton , In an acrobatic contortion , skirt and too dancing act , and Attic Spencer , comedienne. AXU One Fare for the Hound Trip.

JACK TARS HUG THE SHORE Sailors from the Transport Sheridan Pass Through Omaha Sunday Afternoon , ARE HOMEWARD BOUND FROM THE ORIENT Mmlc HIP Trip from Xcvr Vorlt , Via the SUCK Cnnnl , ( n Mnnlln They "IlliMv" TlicninclvcK In Snii Krnnclnco. Forty sailors from the transport Sheridan passed through Omaha yesterday afternoon on the Durllngton en route to Jersey City. They signed for the voyage to Manila about thrco months ago. On the journey over tbo ship carried the Twelfth Infantry , and ono battalion of the Seventeenth infantry , under command of Lieutenant Colonel Jacob Smith. The outward trip was made from New York City , through the Suez canal , and occupied about six weeks , during which tlmo the ship put In at several ports , the visit at the Island of Malta being specially noteworthy , as the troops wcro disembarked and re viewed by the English army officers sta tioned there. After spending about three weeks tit Ma nila the transport Balled for San Francisco , where It arrived about two weeks ago. On Its return It brought several Invalid offi cers and a number of discharged soldiers. The remains of Colonel John M. Stotscn- berg wore also brought back on this trans port. port.When When the transport reached San Fran cisco the sailors refused to continue their service and , although the officers of the ship tried to coerce them , they gained their point. They report having had n pleasant journey iboth ways , but their horfics wcro In New York , Brooklyn and Jersey City , and they did not take to such long trips so far from their native heath * . The men ad mitted that they were generally experi encing a elate of financial embarrassment , Incident to the week spent In exploiting the mysteries of San Francisco. The sailors represented nearly all na tionalities , Italians , English , Irish and Swedes being conspicuous.

CLIFFORD , Proprietor Norwood House , Norwood , N. Y. 9 9 9 - - - * 999 t SOUTH OMAHA NEWS. fr db db tl > > * fc A comparative statement showing the re ceipts of Wvo stock at the four principal markets from January 1 to Juno 2 , inclusive , has just been compiled by the Stock Yards company. This statement shows that South Omaha holds third place in cattle and hog receipts and second place In aheep receipts. For the period of tlmo mentioned an Increase of 129,100 hogs Is shown as compared with the corresponding months ol last year , souin Omaha Is next to Chicago In sheep receipts , while Kansas City's sheep receipts have fallen ot nearly 27,000 since the llrst of the year. In connection with the alleged scarcity of good beef cattle and the prevailing .high prices , the National Stockman of recent date has this to say : "An anonymous correspondent of an ex change takes a very gloomy view of the beel business from the standpoint of the con sumer. According to his figures the shortage of good beef cattle this year will bo from 600.0QO to 700,000 head and out of this and the Indications for tfo'o future ho deducts the statement that 'cheap meat is a thing of the past. ' It is true that the consumer in centers of population Is just now paying more for his beef than ho has been doing for some tlmo and conditions point to the probability that ho will have to conlnue to do so. But no such dismal outlook con fronts the people as this prophet would have us 'believe. ' The population of the United States has a number of times gone through a period when cattle were selling higher 'than ' now and when meats were costing the people much greater figures , and still wo didn't starve , nor did we meet with anything special in the shape of disaster. " Hoard of Kilucntion. The regular monthly meeting of the Board of Education will be held tonight. Aside from the regular routine business It Is ex pected that the board will elect a number of teachers. The list of teachers will be gone over and these whom the board desires to retain will bo re-elected. This Is to be done at this time In order that the teachers may know before the schools close whether they will too expected to return In the fall or not. Regular examinations for teachers will bo held next week , and It Is understood that the vacancies In the corps of teachers will bo filled from among these who pass the examination. Four enumerators are also to bo named tonight In order that the work of taking the school census can commence at once. This census , which Is taken In Juno of each year , must bo completed by July 1. iop OIIIMIM for ( A pawnshop has been opened on ono of the principal business streets of the city. For a number of years past South Omaha has worried nlonjj without a pawnshop , but anticipating that some ono would oventuilly engage In that business hero the city coun cil on July 23 , 1S94 , passed an ordinance regulating such places. In the first place a license fee of $50 a year Is exacted and no llcenao is to bo Issued for less than ono year. A bond of $5,000 Is also necessary and this bond must bo approved by the mayor. This ordinance further provides that pawn brokers shall keep a suitable ( book In which shall bo entered a description of every article pawned , along with the date , etc. This book shall at all times bo accessible to the chief of police. The penalty for violating this ordinance Is a flno not to exceed $100. 1,111'U Of IIOIIHC NlllllIllTM. The Hck of numbers on houses Is the cause of considerable complaint from the mall carriers , newspaper carrier boys and delivery clerks. So many now houses have been erected In all parts of the city during the last year or two that It Is a difficult matter to find people. The greatest trouble h experienced by the letter carriers , who say tint without numbers It Is hard to keep track of the families on their respective routes. It Is possible that the city council may bo requested to pass an ordinance re quiring every house to be numbered , anl if this Is done the delivery of mall will bo greatly facilitated. City fiomiln.

" Wo don't , as a rule , have complaints like this , for the reason our trade buy quick but quite a number of customers wanted to look around Saturday and compare our clothing and prices with other stores who are push ing things very fiard , and the result was , they all came back , and overcrowded our capacity. But yon know it's only the best stores who are busy and cause you to wait sometimes. It's much more satisfactory to a customer to know when he buys his clothing here , that it's not a re-hash of last season's clothing. Our last season's clothing was sold last season. Wo are showing a line of men's sjm'tiff suits at 87.50 that we'd like to have compared with other stores' clothing and prices. It pleases us when we see a customer perfectly satisfied that he is saving money , when he buys clothing of us it's proof to us and to him that this * is a safe store to buy clothing. We have received about 500 moil's ' sjwhiff suits , that go on our tables at 67.50 , that's hard to match in quality and price including meltons , cassimeres , cheviots , worsteds , etc. We'd bo pleased to have you compare quality and price with anything you may find in your looking.
