two feet over a, Kankakee, 111., and turned
twenty-two distinct somersaults before I hit

afternoon when questioned about his cx

"You see It was this way. I makes tho

of tho foot of the ladder. I knows It's all

"Somo of theso days I'll probably get

At a meeting of tho Omaha Musical Festival

ward. Tho election of the directorate of tho new
auditorium was accomplished by tho votes
of the members of the executive committee
of the Musical Festival. The revival of tho
auditorium proposition came about through
the efforts of the gentlemen composing this
committee and It Is out of tho $10,000 or
moro surplus from the proceeds of the nell
stedt concerts that the nucleus for the audi
torlum fund will be formed. Tho Interest
felt by tho members of tho committee In
the success of their plans for an auditorium
manifested Iteelf In their selection ot tho
board of directors, which will havo ontlre
supervision of tho matter.
.No Mich Word n Full.
F. K. Sanborn, who has been chairman of
the musical festival committee, was elected
ns chairman of the auditorium directors,
O. W. Hooblcr. secretary, and Alfred Mil
lard, treasurer. In accepting tho position
of chairman Mr. Sanborn spoko of various
plans that nro ns yet In embryo, having for
a purpose tho erection of an auditorium of
which Omaha people may well feel prouu
I am sure," he said, "that our plans will
be perfected and the great Idea consum
mated lli duo time as 1 am that I am stand
ng before you now attempting to express
my sincere thanks for the highest honor
ever conferred upon me. After the great
success we have mado out of our musical
festival. Indeed, after tho great successes
Omaha haB made out of every venture tho
wide-awake, progressive citizens havo un
dertaken, there Is no such a word ns fall
With the enthusiasm that has been on
gondered by reason of tho success that has
marked the musical festival and tho co
operation wo are sure to receive from the
business men of Omaha a splendid audi
torium, anu one tnai win oe a aiviurno
paylng proposition from tho very first. Is
assured."
The question of a suitable name by
which tho venture shall bo known was dis
cussed informally. Tho one suggested which
received tho most approval was tho
Omaha Musical Festival and Auditorium
Association." C JI. Pickens mentioned tha
appropriateness of this name. "It asso
elates our successful musical festival," he
said, "with the auditorium object that Wo
Intend to attain, and this association will
serve as an Inspiration. Tho naino may
bo objected to by somo becauso of Its
length, but rubber slnmps can be purchased
cheaply and this fact suould offset any ob
Joctlon on this score."
Ilooolptn Foot I it Woll.
At tho meeting of tho musical fc3tlv.nl
committee Treasurer Millard reported that
tho receipts up to dato have been J1S.I53
nnd that the funds ut present on hand
amount to approximately $8,000. It Is es
t'.matcd that so far 50,0)00 admissions have
passed through the gates Into the tented
musical auditorium.
The Hellstedt-Wallenberg benefit, which
will be hold on tho night ot October 1, was
discussed at somo length by the committee
nnd It 1b the determination of nil the mem
bcrs to mako this benefit as great a suc
cess as possible, as a mark of the appro
elation felt toward Messrs. Dcllstcdt nnd
Dallenbcrg for their satisfactory service
Tho Visiting Nurses will continue to have
the concussion privileges for that night
and on thut occasion all passes will be can
celled except those of tho executive com
mlttees of the musical festival and the
Visiting Nurses' association, the band mem
bers nnd the city press.
Thursday morning of this week tho band
will glvo a rag-time concert at the big
tent. The concerts Thursday and Friday

they may be finished before tlmo for tht-

At last night's meeting of the city coun
cil ordinances were passed creating sewer
districts 10S, 109 and 110. Petitions for
theEo sewers have been In for somo time,
but on nccount of the Investigation of sig
natures mado necessary by Mayor Kelly's
recent ruling, there was somo llttlo delay
In tho reports. Everything Is nil right
now nnd the districts have been created
atid It Is expccteil that bids for the sewers
will be advertised for at once, as tho pre
liminary work la completed.
Councilman Johnston culled tho attention
of tho couni'll to tho fact that the registra
tion books wero In bad shape, nnd thut a
new bonrd would have to be appointed by
the council during the month of September.
He advocated the naming of younger men
for plnces on the board In order that tho
books might bo kept In llrst-class condi
tion. It Is cxpoctcd that tho registrars
will bo named at nn ndjourned meeting of
the council to bo held on Friday afternoon
of this week.
Although Mayor Kelly was present. Just
having returned from a trip to tho Iowa
lakes, ho occupied a Beat In tho nudletico
nnd President Adklns occupied tho chair.
When tho opportunity offered tho mayor
took occasion to speak on tho bill of George
Stevens, the city poundmuutcr, and sug
gested the Item should be put upon tho
next appropriation sheet, providing It was
found nil right. With this object In view
committee consisting of Johnston,
Tralnor and Clifton was appointed to look
over the accounts and report as soon as
practicable.
Five bids wero received for the con
struction of a fire hull In tho Second ward
and without any motion or anything of the
sort the mntter went over until a lease
for tho ground cun bo obtained from tho
Omaha Browing association. At the time
the council ordered a building constructed
$1,200 wns virtually set asldo for tho pur
pose, but when the city engineer came to
mako his plans ho found that tho struc
ture would exceed this price, bo ho mado
the estimate $1,500. Some of the members
ot tho council did not seem to llko this,
but Engineer Heal explained that material
was so high that the hall could not bo
built for $1,200. Tho bid of J. M. Tobias
for $1,308 was the lowest of the five offered
und It the hall Is built ho will doubtless
receive the contract.
Several bids for tho construction of per
manent sidewalks wero opened, that of
(icorgo Parks being tho lowest. He bid
11 cents per square foot for vitrified
brick walks. Samples were demanded and
the committee on streets and alleys will
enter Into n contract with Parks as soon as
ho submits a sample of brick which Is
considered suitable.
Tho city olhces will bo closed at noon
on Wodnesdny on account of tho Ak-Sar-
Ben parade. This was at the Instigation
of Tralnor.
An assignment ot the contract and fran
chise of tho South Omaha Water Works
company to the New Thomson-Houston
company of Omaha was read and on the
motion of Tralnor was referred to the
Judiciary committee.
Ordinances on first reading woro read
establishing the. grade In tho alley between
Twcnty-alxth and Twenty-seventh streets
and L nnd M streets and for tho laying
of a sidewalk an the west side ot Eight
eenth street between P nnd Q streets.
Doth were referred to tho Judiciary com
mittee.
By ordinance a walk was ordered laid
cn tiio south side of u street between
Twenty-fourth and Twenty-fifth streets.
Tho revised nueksicr ordinance was
passed, but the chances aro that the mayor
will consider It before ho attaches his
signature.
A liquor license was granted to J. M
Fitzgerald, 2731 Q street.
On Friday afternoon tho council will
raot to name members of tho Hoard of
registration.
Mil n da in ns Cime In October.
According to an ngreement between the
contending sides tho henrlug of the lloctor
school site mandamus and Injunction cases
will come up before tho Judges ot tho dis
trict court tho first week In October. As
It will soon bo too lato to commenco build
ing tho chances nro that plans for tho
wing of the proposed High school will not
bo adopted until later, in order that sovcral
architects may be given an opportunity
of submitting drawings. It Is understood
that Secretary Hronnan will sign tho Hoi
tor wnrrnnt ns soon as the court orders
him to do so and when this la dono the
Jungmnnn Injunction will most likely be
withdrawn, so that the Hoard of Educa
tion will have clear sailing for tho bal
anco of tho school year.
