A mngulflcont new stone templo sprang
up last night on the site of the wooden
atructuie now used as a place of worship
by the Temple Israel congregation.
Five hundred Interested spectators gath
ered before the stage In the assembly room
at the Metropolitan club. When the cur
tain raised the rabbi slept before the en
trance of Temple Israel and the choir
sang softly within the house of worship.
The lights grew dim. The old building
faded and tho rabbi suddenly awakened
from his sleep to find himself before tho
entrance to a stone temple of noble pro
portions. Housing cheers were given for
the grand building, which existed only on
canva.
It was the opening night of the fair for
tho benefit of the now Temple Israel. Tho
excellence of the program, the beauty of
tho decorations and tho large attendance
made the opening very auspicious and as
sured all who uerc present that the new
Temple Israel will soon be more than n

A short addiess of welcome was delivered
by Rabbi Simon, who outlined briefly the
plans of the now temple and expressed the
desire that tho Temple Israel congregation
shall be comfortably housed In a new
church edifice before another year has
passed. A musical program of unusual ex
cellence followed.
Mrs. Martin Cnhn of Chicago sang a
double number. "Klelne du Sues" nnd
"Who'll lluy My Lavender?" which was
well received. A piano solo, "Spring's Ap
proach," by Miss M. Houlter, wns also well
received. During the presentation of the
scones showing the new nnd the old templo
the Temple quartet sang several beautiful
sacred selections.
At the conclusion of tho program the
large crowd began to make tho round of
the various attractions. Tho bnllyho began

Yesterday noon City Clerk Shrlgley tent
to the printers tno copy for the sample nnd
ofl'ida! ballots to bo used at the election
April I. After It had been supposed that
the matter was settled when It was sent
to the press, Rev. Irving Johnson, rector
of St. Martin's Episcopal church, called on
tho clerk and stated that he would decline
to run for member of the Board of Educa
tion on tbo democratic ticket At the
democratic convention W. O. Sloanc was
nominated, but withdrew, giving 111 health
as hU reason, Then the city central com
mittee named Charles E. Scarr, but Mr
Scarr declined on account of all of his time
being taken up with his business Interests.
Then the committee named Mr. Johnson,
and now he has refused to run. It Is under
stood that at the request of the ecclesias
tical authorities of the dloce.10 Rev. John
son has declined to allow his name to be
placed on the ticket. This withdrawal will
result In tho calling together of tho demo
cratic central committee nnd tho naming
of another candidate nt once,
In the matter of a tux commissioner there
was some difference of opinion ns to how
tho tut ti.es and party (initiation should be
placed on the sample mid official ballots.
Some of tho candidates wanted the parly
affiliation along with tho wotds "petition
candidate." Clerk Shrlglpy looked up the
election laws and declined to m.iko this
kind of a combination. Alt three candidates
for tax commissioner nrc running by peti
tion and were nlso nominated by different
conventions and It was a knotty problem
for .1 itoment. It was finally decided that
the party afilllatlon alone should tic given
and when this conclusion was renched the
copy was sent to the printer.
llennett goes on as n republican. Fitz
gerald as a democrat and Shields m united
labor. There was no such contest In tho
matter of candidates for members of the
Hoard of Education.
Since the withdrawal of Rev. Johnson
from the democratic school board ticket
the republicans arc confident of electing
the three candidates nominated. Mead, Gib
son and Rich aro all out working hard tor
election und the general Impression seems
to be that they will be elected without a
doubt. City Attorney Lumber t has rendered
a decision to the effect that nil persons
who desire to participate In tho election of
members of tho Hoard of Edurntlon must
register. Of course, (his docs not apply
to voters who registered Inst fall and who
have not changed their plnce of residence.
It applies, however, to all women who wish
to vote for members uf the board at the
comlnc election. The law Is plain on thin
subject, and Mr. Lambert asserts that It
must tc enforced This decision will cause
the Hoard of Registration, which sits Sat
urday, to perform a largo amount of ad
ditional work, ns it is expected that quite
n number of women will register In order
to be able to express their cholco ns to
who shall conduct the affairs of tho board
for the coming year. Hy electing three re
publican members tho republicans will
ng.itn secure control of the board and this
will menn tho retirement of Dr. Wolfe nnd
tho securing of a Hiiperlntendcnt of In
struction who will act more In accord with
the Idrns of republicans ' than Dr. Wolfe
docs. Other changes are nlso being con
tcmplntcd nnd It Is expecteVl that If tho re
publican candidates uro elected seme of
the "hnsberns" will b relegated to tho

teachers of undisputed qualifications.

County Clerk Haverly has- sent to the
mayor and council another bill for tho
amount alleged duo the county from the
city of South Omaha for the feeding nnd
lodging of prisoners at tho county Jail.
Thin now hill shows a total of J11.3SS.33
alleged to be duo tho county and this Is
only brought up to Jauuary 1, 1001,
Some time ago n request was sent to the
council asking that a committee of city
officials meet with the county commis
sioners lu order to arrlvo at some con
clusion ns to the bill which has been
gradually growing for n number of years.
A committee met tho commissioners nnd It
was the understanding nt that tlmo served
by prisoners charged with Btato complaints
should not bo put in the hill which tho city
is supposed to owe.
As the revised bill Includes the lodging
nnd keeping of any number of state cases
It will be strongly contested by the city au
thorities with a view of reducing tho debt.
In case tho county officials tako this' view
of the matter and allow the rlty what tho
officials here claim tho city will not owe
the county more than $2,000.
Stock Trnlim Delayed.
Although tfTc receipts of llvo stock at
the yards yesterday wore Bntlsfactory for
a .Monday, several trains coming from tho
west wore delayed on account of the storm.
It was reported here last evening that five
tialns on tho Union Pacific landed with
mock for this market were delayed by snow.
but It is thought that these shipments will
nrrlvo sometime toduy. All local Burling
ton trains with stock arrived all right, but
western shipments nro being held back and
will doubtless got In today. In spite of the
storm tho receipts yesterday amounted to
2,365 cattle, 2,766 hogs, 2.013 sheep nnd 72
Horses.
An Increase is now shown lu tho receipts
or cnttlo nnd hogs ns compared with last

decrease in sheep will bo mode up ns soon

It Is understood upon good authority that
members of tho various labor parties In
South Omaha will fight tho election of J
J. Fitzgerald, the democratic nominee for
tnx commissioner. According to tho testl
mnny adduced nt the hearing before the
city clerk Saturday, tho fact was brought
out that Fitzgerald wns the person who
filed the remonstrance against tho namo

The snow blockade which has cut off
Omaha from the west since Saturday was
raised yesterday afternoon. Tho first east
bound trnlns on the Union Pacific to arrive
hero since 7:30 p. m Saturday pulled In
between 2T30 and .1.20 this morning. These
trnlns consisted of seven sections of No. 2
and were loaded to the limit with weary
passengers, while the mall cars wore piled
high with belated postal matter. Seven
westbound trains which had been tied up nt
various points by tho blockade were nlso
released. Train No. I, tho Chicago special,
was scheduled to arrive here on tlmo nt
G:?0 a. in. It Is expected that train horvlco
will be resumed today on something like
regular time.
The llurllngton and Unrk Island wero not

The Uock Island made up a train nt
Fnlrbury which enmc through here In plaro
of No. S, the Colorado train. The Denver
lino of the Hock Island was effectually
blocked Sunday, so No. S came through on
tho southern division of the Union Pacific
and went on cast by way of St. Joseph.
Trains from tho northwest, on tho Hil
lings lino of the llurllngton nnd on the
Elkhorn, were In bad shape. Thirty inches
of snow was piled up at Deadwood Sunday,
but the expectation was that this would bo
cleared away from the tracks during Mon
dny. so that the traffic would bo open this
morning. Apparently the Hurllngton's
Dendwood train of yesterday morning has
been abandoned,
Stub trains wero the order of tho day
yesterday. The Union Pacific made up n
No. 102 at North Platte, also a No. 6. The
former had a freight ear to carry express
and baggage, n passenger car and n chair
car. .Similar tactics prevailed during the
dny on tho other roads. The people along
the lines who wanted to come east toon
advantage of whatever came along, not
waiting for the through trains. The North
western sent trains east from here on
schedule time, taking the place of the
through trains with stubs made up here.
