It was truly a cosmopolitan collection of
femininity which gathered In Hoyd's opera
house Tuesday afternoon to greet Madame
Maud Yale , the celebrated beauty , and listen
to her advice as to how other women could
nnko themselves beautiful , charming and at
tractive , Ilko herself When the doors of
the theater opened there was a rush something -
thing similar to the haste dlaplavcd by wo
men on da > s when Madame Yalo's remedies
lire placed on the "bargain counter " The
beat scats wcro soon filled
Madame Yale Is no stringer to Omnha
women On ccveral ocpislons she has do-
lUercd her talks on hcilth and beauty. She
3\ldentlj appreciated the warm reception
ccortled her She acknowledged It daintily
and prettily and then began her lecture It ,
\as an informal talk , disconnected , perhaps ,
ml followed all the vvny through with eager-
less bv her auditors She gave the best of
dvlcc The most of It related to the sccur- '
ng and keeping of health and beiutj but
ncldental to this she delivered some charm-
tig advice regarding the moral and social
ihascs of a woman's lite
"Ueaut.v , " ehe said , "has never been de
fined , because It Is Indescribable It can
come onlv of purltv purity of mind , body
nnd character It Is Impossible unless the
one seeking It Is possessed of perfect health
n these days of oclence and advancement
an unhealthy person Is plngued An un-
icalthy person cannot regain that which
las been lost , nor secure that which , un-
fortunatelj , has never been enjo > ed , unless
ts cultivation Is pursued sdentlflcnllj "
Madame Yale told her audience how to
gain and hovv to Keep good health She
asserted that common eensc was the best
teacher. The drinking of much cold water
recommended , but above all things else
she pleaded with the women to take lots of
exercise.
llxi'ri'lxe In tlie TliliiK.
Exercise Is the one essential element to
good health , " Madame Yale said , with em
phasis. "Medicine Is unavailing without
proper outdoor exercise. L idles , If jou are
suffering from anything , unless it be of nn
Inllamnntory or an acute nature or a fever ,
take my advice nnd go out and walk Do It ,
even If every move jou make Is miser j
Walk , If to do so you must drag one foot
after the other Exorcise will do vou more
good than an > thing else There Is no rea
son why jou should not all enjoy pel feet
health When vou get health you can hope
to become beautiful , not before
And then It Is essential that you be good
and pure. Dcauty nnd purity go hand In

because they produce evil Impressions end
with these all traces of beaut } nro lost
Your minds and your lives should possess
the Innocence of childhood. Hcilth and
beauty nro every woman's rightful inheri
tance. Youth , though , is a fleeting dream
If wo yield to the baser elements of our
lives. It Is a lifetime Joj If wo are pure
In thought nnd action. "

Madame Yule said that she was In her
fortv-ninth jcar and smiled sweetly as she
continued that she was not ashamed of her
age , blnce perpetual youth was possible to
her as to all other women. She followed
this by another staitllng assertion when she
confet-sed that she wore no corset. Then bho
showed how women should walk naturally
and gracefully and created amusement as she
described the walking of many women
Tor a few moments she retired and when
she again appeared she was attired in
tights , ( .how Ing the graceful contour of her
form and calling forth an expression of
admiring "Ohs1" "My mission , " she bald ,
"Ih to tell women how to get well and to
show them what Is possible for them. I do
not. appear for > our admiration , but to
convince jou of the allied relation between
health and 'beautj " Madame Yale give a
scries of callsthonlc exercises , designed by
herself for the development of certain muscles -
clos of the body The moat Important of
those were exercises of the face , which
Madame Yale recommended for the driving
awaj of wrinkles and the producing of a
perfect contour.

Congressman David II. Mercer Is working
lo secure Iho gift of a public llbraiy for
South Omaha and it begins to look as If his
effcrts In this direction will bo successful.
Under date of December 28 , Mr J A. Beck ,
a leading joung republican , received Iho
following letter from Ileprcsentallve Mer
cer "Just before Christmas I wrote An-
drexv Carnegie at Nexv York suggesting tint
If ho was anxious to niiKe a Christmas pies-
ent to n good live to\\n , ho might place
JTiOOO in Soulh Omaha foi a public library
building Mr Carnegie and I had corre
spondence heretofore with reference lo the
llbraiy which ho donated to Washington ,
and knowing thai ho has been ijullc' gen-
orouo In Iho distribution of mono ) for II-
brnrles throughout the United States , I
though 1 might Interest him in South Omaha.
Perhaps bomo diy my rcquost may bo
gianted Ho wrote mo , however , at this
time thai in vlexv of tha fact that the
ell ) of Lincoln had lost Its llbrarj by fire ,
hi ! had concluded In present that c'ty with
J7 , , OOU for u building , and for Iho present t
thai amount must do for Nebraska In view
of the fact that Lincoln is the capital of our
state and wns unfortunate in losing Its
rttrarj , 1 think the people of South Omaha
anil Nebraska will all rejoice thai ho re-
memtered Lincoln as ho did I am sure If It
had nol been for the flro In Lincoln , how
ever , lhal Conlh Omaha would have gotten
a nlco Chrlstiuis present"
Tor various reasons It was decided to
withhold tha Information contained In this
letter of Congressman Meicor until later
developments Yesterday Mr Ucck was In-
' foimcd by Mr. Mercer tint he was at perfect
jllUiitv to give the letlor to the public If ho
I so desired.
While nothing positive Is knovxn , It is
Uhcught Representative Mercer ia In receipt
i of additional Information from .Mr. Carnegie
I In relation to the proposed gift. The sum
mei.tloned will erect and equip a lundsome
library , as two-thirds of the total gift would
undoubtedly bo used to construct a building
and the balance to purchase books. Under
such circumstances the city will bo called
upon lo miiko a lev ) for library purposes as
provided by laxx.

Attornes representing the claim of Henry
nii-foldor have commenced proceedings in
Itc district court to compel the city council
to lev ) a special tax to pay the judgment
accorded Paul Hlsfolder on account of In-
I juries alleged to have been received b ) falling -
( ing into a gas trench a couple of ) ears ago
At the tlmo of the accident tha boy , Paul I.
WOB represented as plalng about the trench
and after having been warned awuy had ,
atlemptcd to jump across and fell , breaking
cone of his arms Suit was commenced nnd
the plalntltf was finally awarded judgment
against the cit > Prior to the opening of '
the streets * b ) the gas company a bond
wa given in the sum of 110.000 , Indemnlf-
ing tbo clt ) against damage in case of acci
drnts by reason of ex avitlons In this suit
!
the city has been compelled to bear the
burden and a fury has decided In favor of
tbo plaintiff Prom the fact that the gas ,
company furnished a bond It seems to some i
taxpayers that the illumination concern and
not the city should bear the burden of pay
ing the damages In this case The mayor
has ottcn talked publicly about this matter ,
but U Is evident that ho hat done nothing
nnd has not even Instructed the city attor
ney to fight the case Many taxpayers cannot -
not sen why the city should bo called upon
to pay for the Injuries alleged to have been
received by Paul Klsfclder , in view of the
fact that the gas company furnished a bond
for just such purposes.
A nnndamus means that the city council '
must meet nnd make a special levy to liqui
date this claim. Unless a continuance can
bo ! secured , the cost to the city xxlll bo fully
$ J.OOO In addition to the original claim. More
than likely arrangements xxlll be made to
adjust the claim when the next levy Is ,
available.
