City Council Likely to Authorize Their Pur
chase in tha Near Futnro.
PRESENT SYSTEM IS UNSUISFACTORY
KiiKlnper It oHiMvnlcr mill Coiim-llninii
.liiiinnii lletiirit from n Tour iif
IiiNiirctloii of Denver Street
CleiiuIiiK Syntciu.
City Engineer Hosowatcr and Councilman
Horry Zlmman ot tho Third ward lmvo re
turned from a two days' tour of Inspection
of the street cleaning system in vogue in
Denver." Tho city engineer has also boon
authorized to scrutlulzo tho sweeping
equipment of Indianapolis, n city noted for
its cleanliness, mid will leave on that er
rand this week, providing tho concurrent
resolution Is signed by the mayor. Tho
purpose of tho Inquiry Is to ascertain tho
' advisability ot using machine's rather than
hand labor In cleaning tho streets.
Both Mr. Hosowatcr and Mr. Zlmmnn
nro enthusiastic regarding tho utility of tho
machines used at Denver, and aro in favor
ot their adoption In Omaha. Tho other
councilmcn, with one or two possible ex
ceptions, nlso endorse tho machino method.
As a result ot tho visit, It Ih expected that
steps will at onco bo taken toward tho pur
chase of machines. Tho expenso Is not
yet definitely ascertained, tho machines at
Denver having cost $650 each, and those at
IndtanupollB being of a more elaborate pat
tern, "In Denver tho streets are as clean as
a newly swept floor," said Mr. Rosewator.
"Of tho twenty miles of pavement In the
city, eighteen aro swept ovcry night. In
Omaha wo havo sixty-five miles of stone,
aipbalt nnd brick pavemonts and nro only
able to cover two mlle dally with tho
broom. In addition there aro llltcen mllos'
of cedar blocks which aro never swept at
all. Tha fact must be considered of course,
that tho Denver streets only range from
thirty-six to forty-eight feet In width, while
ours nro about 40 per cent wider.
"Tho Denver authorities mako use of
three side swoepors which simply throw the
dust- to tho gutter on ono sldo and two
rlck-up machines which collect the sweep
ings In quantities of ono cubic yard. They
employ six ehovclcrs In tho gutters and
five teams In collecting tho sweoplngs, Jn
Omaha wo employ about tblrty-slx men and
from six to eight teams. Wo are allowed
$19,000 annually for sweeping purposes com
pared, while $28,000 Is appropriated for that
purpose In Denver. I estimate that Denver
does six times moro work than wo do at
much less than twice the expense."

should bo used In Omaha at tho earliest
practicable moment. Doth from motives nf
cleanliness and eventual economy he thought
tho council would bo Justified In incurring
tho expense. "I do not believe that tho
machino method would work any hardship
on labor," added Mr. Zlmman, "but even If
It does mean the discharge of a few men
thore would bo more than a corresponding
gain to tho wclfaro ot tho city."
Councilman Hoyo regarded the use of ma
chines as simply a business proposition. In
view of tho economy nnd utility of the
method ho believed that tho council would
purchaso machines. "Why, thore nro paved
streets down In the Second ward," he said,
"that haven't been cleaned In n year."
Councilman Mount feels some doubt
whether tho council has authority to Invest
In machines, owing to u section of the char
ter which provides that nil 'street cleaning
and sweeping shall be done by dny labor.
"It Is plain to me," sold Mr. Mount, "that
when that clause was framed It was In
tended to bar out macblnea and I doubt
whether tho council will bo able to disre
gard It."
Councilman Hurkley did not regard the
charter .provision as affecting the present
situation in tho least. "Although the coun
cil chose to Interpret the words 'day labor'
as opposed to machines when a simi
lar Instanco camo up sovoral years
ago I can see no reason for
taking such a view. Tho words 'day la
borer,' in my opinion, aro used to prohibit
'contract labor.' A brcom or n shovel might
bo regarded ns a machino Just as reasonably
as a sweeper."
Councilman Karr Is In favor ot purchas
ing machines. "Thero would bo an equal
number of men employed," he said, "and
tho only difference would be that much
moro territory would bo covered."
. Councilman Trcstlcr, who has been tho
moot pronounced of tho new councilmcn In
his adherenco to day labor, has been almcst
converted to tho scheme. "It It Is demon
strated," ho said, "that tho uso of machines
would not materially reduco tho labor in
volved I think tho now method should be
adopted."
Councilman Whltchorn was Inclined to
look upon the charter provision us a bar
rier, but Is in favor ot maohlnes, providing
tho laboring Interests aro not Jeopardized.

Several hundred club women were at
tracted to tho First Congregational church
Monday afternoon by tho announcement of a
program under tho direction ot tho depart
ment of English llteraturo of tho Woman's
club which had provided a plcaelng novelty
for thu occasion. It wao a surprisingly de
licious menu of home talent llteraturo and
though it may requlro tho flavor of tlmo
and antiquity to render It strictly standard
It was none tho less' pleasing and Inter
esting, being given from tho lips of the as
piring writers. Another unique phase of
this entertainment was that, whllo it was
a Woman's club function, tho program was
contributed entirely by gentjemery Mrs.
Colo, leader of tho literature department of
tho club, presided and Introduced the par
ticipants In the exercises.
Will M. Maupln and Charles C. Hahn,
both well known Omaha verso writers, re
cited from their published works some of
the choicest cf their productions, thoao of
tho former being of the moro homelike tone,
abounding In wit and pathos, which appeal
to tho reader who admires the claw of writ
ers represented most faithfully by Whit
comb Hlley, while- tho works of Mr. Hahn
aro Inspired by a deep senoe ot piety. Tho
titles of tho selections rendered speak their
characteristics. Mr. Maupln read from his
volume, "Tho Hotter Half Awheel," "Whip
Uchlmj," "The Old-Kashloned Prayer Meet
ing," "Tho Modern Maid," "Hello, Pop,"
and as encores, "Dreams of tho Exposition"
and "Old Man Armstrong's Violin." Each
selection oleclted generous expressions ot
admiration that wero unmistakably genuine.
Mr. Hahn read his "Monk's Prayer," "Tito
Monk and tho Mother Bird,' "Vesper Song,"
"Alono" and "Ood la Dead." Each was ro
colved with every mark of favor by tho
women, but tho climax was reached when
Mr. Hahn's "My Crucifix," sets to music by
Slgmund Lnndaberg, was sung In a sweet
and sonorous baritone by O. It. Oarels3en
to tho piano accompaniment of Mr. Lands-
berg. At tho completion of this perform
ance tho applauso was so persistent that all
three of tho gentlemen woro brought to tho
platform nnd Mr. Qarelsaen was obliged to
sing again.
No less marked evidences of appreciation
woro shown for a paper read by Thomaa J.
Kolly on tho subject of popular songs
treated from a literary standpoint. Tho
speaker dlecu3sed tho characteristic differ
ences between good nnd bad songs, giving
oxamplcs cf each from songs that oro known
to eeryono nnd closing with an appeal to
tho women of Omaha to discountenance a
great deal of the literary trash that finds
expression In popular songs. Ills remarks
were enlivened by sallies of pathefi and wit
that found reidy responso from tho audience.
In tho business sreston Mrs. Q. W. Clark
and Mrs. C. S. Loblngler were elected dele
gates to tho Topeka convention of charities
and correction nnd Mrs. Andrews and Mrs.
Heller wore delegated to attend tho moth
ers' convention at Des Molnew. Each dele
gato was authorized to select an alternate In
case of Inability to attend.
Resolutions wero adopted exprctslve of the
sympathy of the club with the sorrow of
Mrs. Lowe, president of tho National fed
eration of Woman's Clubs, over the death of
her husband.
Announcement was mado of tho teachers'
concert to bu given May 30 for tho
