When renldentH of North Omaha -rode
along the Sherman avenue car lino yesterday
morning and saw workmen laying a spur
from tho main lino of tho Missouri 1'aclflo
south Into tho Uluff tract they Imnclncd
that a greedy corporation wqs grabbing the
protty llttlo park which has teen planned
along tho edgo of tho bluff. In a short
tlmo many excited residents of that neigh
borhood began an Investigation. Suspicion
ras allayed whon It waa inniln known that
tho rallroady company was merely relaying,
i.uuv lect, or track which waa taken up
during tho exposition with tho understand
ing that It would bo relald after the fair
was ovci.
Tho spur ruaa along tho bluff tract, about
100 feet cast of Sherman avenue, and ex
tonds south to where the viaduct connecting
tho Midway nnd the Illuff tract stood dur
ing tho exposition. It will not cut Into tho
proposed park, but crosses tho projected
boulovard which Is to connect tho strip
along tho edgo of tho bluff vlth Sherman
avenue. Park Commissioner K. J. Cornish
ays that It was known when the plans for
tho park wcro drawn that the Missouri
I'acino claimed a right of way In that
locality and that tho track will not In any
way Inlorfero with tho proposed addition to
tho park nnd boulovard system.
John A. Smiley originally owned tho
land where tho track was laid and tho rail
road company sccurod a lease for ninety
nlno yoors, dating from 1889. Georgo T,
Iloagland and Sophia Lowo secured Judg1
menu against tho land and afterwards
John A. nnd Paul V. llorbach mado loans
on tho property nnd foreclosed on tho mort
gages. Later John J. Uarrct sued out an
execution on behalf of Qeorgo T. Iloagland
and Sophia Lowe, who malntnlucd that
their judgments wero prior Hens to tho
mortgages.
Meoiiwhllo tho Missouri Pacific romovod
Its track from tho land that tho owners of
tho land might grado It fur exposition pur
poses. Tho railroad ductals claim that
thoy did this with tho understanding that
thoy should bo allowed to replaco tho track.

Thero Is more than passing Interest In

wero carried out It would glvo Into the

business on tho Pacific nnd tho great

It Is asserted that tho leal does not con

which thoy run will not permit such
step, but the two roads will bo owned by
tho samo peoplo and opornted under orders

There Is llttlo to condemn and less to

Tho plcco Is a frothy, vapid creation nnd
wero Its presentation confined to tho rural
ilibtrlcts nnd sparsely suttled communities,
when; but llttlo In tho way of amusement
offered, thero might bo somo prospect
f Its meeting with favor. To put it on
tho boards of a metropolitan theater, whero
ttractlons that have commanded the ad'
miration nnd approbation of tho llrst'
nlghters and critical thenter-goers In tho

very much akin to Inviting financial dis

for tho lack of capable actors to Interpret

Somo of tho city officials aro being cen
sured for oxtravaganco In the matter ot or
dering city printing. The latest error waa
discovered ypstorday when 1,000 petitions
wero dollvered to tho city clerk to bo used
In grading and paving districts. At tho
rato paving and grading has bocn going on
tho last year or two this number ot peti
tion blanks will last tho city for forty
years. But this la not ail. Tho blanks
aro Incomplete, no conditions of waiver of
damages having been printed at tho top
of tho petition or any placo else on tho
document, ns Is customary. It Is figured
that thero will bo an additional cxpenso
of $30 to havo tho necessary waiver printed
on tho 1,000 blanks. Chairman Martin of
tho printing commltoe Bald, when his at
tention was called to the matter, that he
Intended to order only COO of tho petition
blnnks and ho thinks that his order must
have been misunderstood by the printers.
Owing to so much trouble having oc-
. .. . ,---.... ,
currod ovor defective petitions for paving
nnd grading, Mayor Kelly endeavored to
provent errors in tho futuro by having a
number of Instructions printed on tho
blanks, which If carried out will certainly
savo tho city a great deal of money In tho
future. In the first placo tho full name ot
tho proporty owner must bo signed In Ink'
or with an Indelible pencil. No moro pen
cil signatures will bo consldorcd. Only
thoso who hold tho tltlo of record to prop
erty can sign, unless It bo poraons holding
power of attorney. In, caso the property Is
n homestead both tho signature of husband
and wife will bo required. Further, every
signature must bo witnessed, In order that
thero may bo no dlsputo about a signature,
as has bo frequently occurred In the past.
Anothor good point Is the requiring of a
cortlflcato from tho register of deeds as
to tho record tltlo of property signed for
on the petition. This certificate must bo
filed with tho council beforo a recommen
datlon for tho passage of au ordinance will
bo mado. All Information as to tho re
quired number of feet frontage to bo signed
for will be furnished by tho city engineer
upon application
By following out these requirements to
tho letter tho city officials hope to prevent
mistakes In tho passing of ordinances pro
vldlng for tho levying of special assess
ment taxes.

to reassess certain special assessment ills-
trlct taxes which havo been declared 111a-
gal by tho courts Councilman Johnston
said yesterday: "In my opinion It will bo
tho better plnn to apply to the legislaturo
for a curative act legalizing the assess.

will glvo tho city tho power to raako a ro'
assessment. In my opinion thero will bo
no opposition to tho passage of such a
bill, as no other city In tho state will bo
affected. -Mr. Lambert suggests that ono
I district be selected out of tho number dis
carded by tho courts and tho question
taken direct to tho supremo court. This

the city securing relief within n very few

tho following out of Mr, Lambert's Idea."
It U estimated that $125,000 In special
district assessment tuxes have been thrown
out by tho courts and unless something
is dono It will be necessary before long
to lssuo general Indebtedness bonds In this
sum to provldo for these Bpcclal assess

Along last summer the council and Com

tho banka do not euro to hnndlo this class

This Is $100 less than n wagon of tho samo

Canada and Great Hrltlan who mnko dally

that would outnumber our army of one hun
dred thousand by nt least flvo to ono.
Men aud women, who nro broken down In
health, aro only a part of tho thousands
who use this popular preparation, tho
greater number aro peoplo who aro In fair
hoalth but who know that tho wny to keep
wolt Is to keep tho digestion perfect and
uso Stuart's Tablets as regularly as meal
tlmo comes to lnsuro good digestion and
proper assimilation of food.
Prevention Is always better than curo and
disease can find no foothold If tbo dlgostlon
is itept in good workln ordor by tho many
use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
Mr. Thomas Scale, Mayflold, Calif., says:
"Have UBed and recommended Stuart's Tab-
lots becauso there Is nothing llko them to
koep tho stomach right."
Miss Leila Dlvoly, 4027 Plummor St., Pitts
burg, Pa., writos: "I wish everyone to
know how grateful 1 am for Stuart's Dys
pepsia Tablets. I Buffered for a long tlmo
and did not know what ailed mo, I lost
flesh right along until ono day I noticed nn
advertisement of these tablots and immedi
ately bought a CO cent box at tho drug storo,
I am only on tho second box and nm gaining

somothlng that has reached ray ailment."
From .Mrs. Del. Eldred, Sun Prairie, Wis.,
"I was taken dizzy very suddenly during tho

Dyspepsia Tablots (which I had used long
before for various bad feelings) and tho
first three tablets helped mo
They aro easily tho best all around family

The army of peoplo who tako Stuart's Tab-
lots aro mostly people In fairly good health,
and who keep well by taking them regularly
after meals. They contain no opiates, co
calno or any cathartic or Injurious drugs,
simply tho natural peptones and digestives
which every weak stomach lacks.

What a "Voirinn of Prominence in
the Medical Work! II. is to
Say About Her Sex.
What Are Women's Rights?
In all ages ot tho world poets, scientists
and men of prcmlucuco have looked with
enthusiasm often akin to reverence upon
woman, but It Is ouly within tho last fow
years that sho has begun to assume her
right place, not only In Boclety, but with
tho world In generul. Why so dcslrablo
an end should hnvo been so long delayed
It Is difficult to understand, but thnt It
has nt la.it como Is certainly causo for
gratitude In her social sphere, In her
mcntnl development and especially In her
physical Improvement woman has shown
wondeiful advancement, and such na aston
ishes tho world.
They who havo mado a careful Investi
gation toll us that heathen women nro
much moro ablo to cuduro pain than aro
tho women of civilization, but civilized
.women would resent tho chargo that they
aro voakcr becauoo they aro civilized. A
distinguished wrltor says: "If tho v,omen
of civilization nro Icsh ablo to enduru the
tnxntlon of their physical resources than
aro heathen women It Is a mere accidental
circurnstanco aud one within their control."
Let us consider for a moment tho possi
bilities which present themselves to every
woman. When tho body Is healthy beauty
Is certain to appear, oven In features and
forms onco plain; Indeed It Is tho only
known way to become beautiful and all
preparations, powdera and laccu aro con
tomptlblo delusions. With health and
beauty In all tholr attractiveness a now llfo
dawns,
Kiijnyiucii t HokIiis
and nil tho luxurious attendants of a
healthy body como forth. Tho maiden
feels tho glorious possibilities of ltfo; the
mother becomes conscious of tho grandeur I
of maternity nnd tho Joys of a family. All
this Is not only woman's prlvllego, It Is her
duty, and It embodies tho highest definition
of "woman's rights."
After enumerating many of tho blessings
that follow perfect health tho speaker con
tinued: All these dcalrable things can bo accom
plished, but In ono way only. Tho Creator
has given both woman and man perfect
physical forms nnd each Is constitutionally
equal to all natural demands. It Is a
mistaken und pernicious notion thnt ono Is
strong aud tho other weak. No curco was
pronounced upon woman which did not np
ply with equal penalty against man. If
women bellevo tho fatalism that dlseaso Is
a necessary condition of tholr cxlstenco it
!b chlclly becaueo tho disciples of tho
schools of medical practice havo becn
utterly lncnpablo of competing with the
multitude of Ills, which, by personal care
lessness or professional Incompetency, they
havo permitted to fasten upon women.
A fow weekn ago I received n call from
a charming lady whoso earnest face clearly
showed that sho desired advice and assist
ance. Upon questioning her sho stated that
sho believed sho was suffering from n
paralyzed liver and wished to know If I
could In nny way aid her recovery. Now,
Imperfect ns her statement was lu regard
to tho dlsenso which troubled her, thero Is
no doubt that
Thonsnnds of "Women
nro suffering today from similar troubles
who do not recognize their cnuso so nearly
as this lady did. Paralysis means death
of tho mombor paralyzed and torpidity of
tho liver Is tho llrst stage of is dissolution.

vtoman, for n torpid and diseased liver can
not bo cured at onco and It carries with It
the elements ot disease to all tho other
parts of tho system. With an Imperfect
liver bllousncss, languor, n sense of bear
ing di'wn, constipation, displacements,
uterlnn troubles nnd tho thousand H
which nro coupled in tholr train como
thick nnd fast.
Then follow lmpuro blood and all tho
ovlls which an Imperfect circulation causes.
A derangement of tho kidneys or liver
causes dlsoiiso In tho organs which, adjoin
them Just as ccrtnlnly as a bnd peach
Injures tho other peaches In tho basket.
Not only this, but when these organs aro
lu a healthy stato thoy restore and keep
In order any Irregularity which may occur
In tho lower portion of tho body. No woman
waa ever seriously sick for auy length ot
time when such was tho case, No serious
Inllammatlon can occur when tho blood l:t
puro and no blood can bo lmpuro when tho
liver nnd kidneys aro In perfect order.
I havo seen very much of tho troubles and
Ills to which women havo bon subjected
and I havo learned to sympnthlzo while I
havo sought to relieve. In endeavoring to
carry relief I havo tried to bo freo from
prejudlco and havo In view but ouo ond,
namely, to help those who nro Buffering,
and I feel It Is my privilege today to Btato
that 1 bellevo thero Is a moans whereby
(hoso women who nro suffering can obtain
complcto relief and thoso who aro In health
be continued In Us enjoyment. I am awaro
that a prejudice exists against proprietary
medicines nnd that ueh prejudlco Is too
often well founded, but wo should dis
criminate In our Judgments and not con
demn nil because some aro lncfllcluut. Tho
merits of Warner's Safe Curo havo been
proven beyoud n doubt, becnuso It dcala
directly with theao weaknesses; affects and
controls tho body of tho treo rather than
Its branches. Warner's Snfo Curo 1ms In
deed been a blessing for tho rich; n boon
to tho poor. It hna lifted men from a bed
of death nnd restored them to vigor nnd
health. Hut greater and better than alt
t,'lB' " 1"ls couo t0 woman, has raised her,
restored her nnd kept her In constant hope
fulness nnd health. It has kept back
dlseaso by fitting tho system to resist its
attacks; It has regulated tho llfo, purified
