A majority of thp members of tho old
and nr.w boards of directors of the Audi
torium company and a number of the ad
vlsory board of the company were present
last night at tho dinner plvrn In honor of
the flrnt election of the Auditorium com
pany. The dinner was to have been upread at
G:30 o'clock, but it was nearly an hour
later when the doors were thrown open to
the dlnem.
When the elpsrs were served President
Sanborn, addressing the members of the
old nnd new boards of directors, reforred to
the need of Omaha for an auditorium, which
v.-ns particularly evident during the Trans
mlsslppl exposition. Ho recited the his
tory of the company from the close of the
band concerts In lMiu. "A year ago to
night." said he, "the newly organized com
mittee started to Kansas City to Investi
gate the question of auditoriums, so that
all that has been accomplished has been
done In ono year. In this time about seven
months' actual work has been done. Klve
months were lost during the holidays and
the summer months. The subscriptions
raised represent more thnn $20,000 per
month. A site centrally located has been
purchased at a total cost of about JK.OOO
and there Is over J100.000 of good assets on
hand with which to begin the construction
of the building. The work of the board
has been done without frills. Tho expenses
havo been kept down to J126 per month.
Thank Oinnlin (.'11i-ii.
"'On behalf of the board I want to
thank the citizens of Omabit for the loral
support given at all tiroes. The advisory
board I desire to thank for moral and
llnanclal support and I also desire to
thank tho press of the city for Its assist
ance. The personnel of the new board
means much. All of the persons hure know
the auditorium Is to be built; 1'5 per cent
of tho people of Omaha do not Know It,
therefore wo should lay the foundations
nnd begin to lay brick and mortar as soon
as possible. We should have the building
near enough completion so that the
Knights of Al;-Sar-ncn can use their por
tion for Initiations next 31ay."
Secretary Uoobler read regrets from F.
A. Nash. Oerrge A. Joslyn, Clem Chose,
3. H. Millard, J. F. Carpenter and a num
ber of others. He then presented his an
nual report as previously published.
Alfred Mlllord. treasurer, reported the
ncruracy of ..the secretary's report as to
the ensh on hnnd.
Charles a. Elgutter. counsel tor the, last
year, submitted tils report snowing mat
there are no suits pending In which the
Auditorium pompany ls Interested, but .
there are some claims In the probate court
caused by the deuth of subscribers. Tho j
title of tho site of the proposed Auditorium
U perfect. The abstracts have been car-
fully examined and show that the title Is
good. The houses on the land were sold at
a good price, but out of this sale tame
n suit against the purrhaser, but the mat
ter hae. been amicably settled. All the legal
affairs of the board are now settled up to
date.
" The promotion committee through E. E.
Andrews reported upon tho Industrial ex
position, showing an expense of about
$.",700, with net returns of over J4.000.
Fred raffenrath, from the miscellaneous
revenue committee, reported that its total
donation to the company has been approxi
mately J10.000. at nn expense of H.MR.Gl.
Tntma.tT TnUrs rhri;r.
ThlB closed the reports from tho old
board and the president Introduced Euclid
Martin, the toastmaster. In tnklng charge
of the meeting Mr. Martin made u brief talk
in which he said that ho supposed the
meeting was for business and that Omaha
is now in a critical condition. "We are.
now pructtcally at the turning point. The
cities of tho eust aro growing rapidly.
Omaha ls better situated and we may eon
fldentally expect good growth. If I under
stand the matter rightly the cities of the
east are growing on account of their manu
facturing enterprises. Omaha is suffering
from some things. The Inflation of the
census in 1800 hurt us. but we huve out
grown this. It In said our municipal gov
ernment Is expensive. Majbe It ls. but
other cities also have expensive govern
ments. We aro In debt, bo nrc other cities.
What .we niied is unity of purpose nnd we
nrc getting that." "He then Introduced F.
W. Kellogg of Kansas City, who spoke on
the subject of "The Old Board and What
It Hon Done."
Judge W. D, Mr.Hugh was to have spoken
on the subject of "The Xew Board and
What It Has to Do." He was out of the
city and the toast was responded to by C.
S. Pourse, a member of the new hoard. He
said in part- "It appears to me that the
first thing the new board has to do ls to
facs the situation. To take an account of
stock, see what the old board has done.
It has taken out of the town whatever
came easy. It had to block out the work
and it is but right It should get the easy
money, but wp must remember that we will
have harder work to get money. It has
washed the sand, but there are still good
nuggeti to 1m got out of frosty spots. It ls
Make him take it. His night cough has
kept you awake long enough. He wouldn't
be so stubborn about it if he knew how quickly
Ayer's Cherry Pectoral would cure a cough,
even the coughs of bronchitis, croup, asthma,
and la grippe. When he's cured he will thank
you- for insisting upon having your own way.
Your own doctor will uphold you in this.
TryTiim and see.
44 Ayer's Cherry Pectoral cured my daughter of a very bad cough after
we had tried about everything else without relief,"

"What we need IB Omaha is a few fools
What I mean tty this Is thst we want men
who will not tawi upon the average
basis who do not look at things from the
srerage point of view. We roust have the
faith of the fool that nothing Is Impossi
ble and nothing will be impossible "
"Help the Town and Help Yourself"
was the toast to which Rev. K. F Trefz
responded. Mr. Trefc said In part: "I
have come to the concltielfln that the old
Auditorium hoard Is the best board that
evr backed up an auditorium scheme and
that the new board Is also the best that
has ever backed an auditorium srheme
In other words. I believe that the old
board and the new board are one and that
the men who have retired from the board
are as much In line for the success of the
enterprise as they have ever been. The
acme of selfishness Is shown by the man
who enters a city and aftor making a for
tune refuses to do anything for the com
munity. In multiplying the powers of the
city the rosldent multiplies his own power.

"Tor the slie of the town and ftie num
ber of people It contains I believe that no
town on earth has the amount of brains
that Omaha has The Omuha Auditorium
will be one of the greatest things for the
education of the people. It will bring to
them a knowledge and appreciation of the
beauties of art and the ndtancc of selenre.
"After two years of residence In Omaha 1
have come to the conclusion that Omaha
sentiment Is united to advance the Inter
erts of the city."
This concluded the set program. Brief
talks were then made by C. C. Ileldcn
who eulogized the old board and prophe
sied good work for th new; E. E. Bruce,
who offered udvlec to the new board, say
ing that the board should arrange to col-
leet at least $10(1.000 in addition to what
has been subscribed, that every home owner
should be on the subscription fist. W. A
DeBord and John Latensor. who spoke of
the practical work of the construction. In
Introducing Johit Latenser Mr. Martin said
that the arrhttect of the Auditorium had
proved himself one of the most success
ful builders In the country. Mr. Ls tenser
told of the examination of the ground at
the site. He said that he- found the site
had been filled nine feet ut the alley on
Fifteenth stiect and but two feet nt tho
alley on Fourteenth street, that the foun
datlon at Its lowcht depth would be four
teen feet lower than the floor level, that
water wos struck from fourteen to twenty

"I have Just got back from Denvrr."
said an Omaha business man Tuesday even
ing. "Their festival of Mountain and Plain
drew out some tremendous crowds, enough
to warrant the hotels in boosting their
prices as high as Pike's peak and then
some. I paid $3 a day for a room to sleep
In. and It wasn't much of a room at that.
Cots commanded ti. and other things In
proportion. 1 went Into the hotel at which
I stopped after walking the streets for sev
eral hours In a vain attempt to secure ac
commodations at one of the big houses. It
was one of the third or fourth-rate pUres.
The landlady welcomd me graciously
enough, and said she had three rooms left.
1 looked ot them nil. Xo bath, no nothing,
but Just a place to sleep. 'How much for
the three days?' I asked. 'Xlne dollars.'
she answered without a stutter. 'I've got
more money than that." says 1, nnd I handed
her a flO bill. 'Give me n dollar and 1
take the room.'
"That Isn't whnt I want to talk to you
about, though. So-ne of the things I saw
out there made me think b little. Ono
thing ls the fact that Denver has com
pletely captured tbf Black Hills from
Omaha, nnd did it Just as easy. Hero's the
situation: When the Deadwood people gave
their quadro-centennlal celebration last
Fourth of July a general Invitation .was
sent to Omaho and Denver people to come
up. Well. Just ubout six people wnt up
from Omaha, and a couple of hundred went
from Denver. When the Knights of Ak-Sar-Ben
carnival was held here this fall
there was nobody here from the Black
Hills, but out at Denver there were over
1,000 of tho leading men from the, Dakota
mountains, and lhey were made the center
of a decidedly warm time.
"What's the result Why, everything that
Denver ran soil to the Black Hills mer
chant will be that much trade taken awny
from Omaha and Denver will sell them
plenty I''s another piece of thoughtless
ness on the part of somebody, but It has
cost Omaha the business of h large terri
tory Denver'B Chamber of Commerce
made the fight, and seems to have won,
while Omnha s Commercial rlub allowed
the ColoradoanB to do as they pleased."

The war of words In the council Monday
night was one of the principal subjects of
conversation on the streets yesterday. It
will be remembered that In his talk Coun
cilman Miller asserted that he had been
tricked Into buying two new Jail records
by Chief Mitchell. When Miller called at
the city Jail yesterday Chief Mitchell called
the councilman to account. Miller asserted
that he was excited during his little affair
with Johnston that he did not remember
what he said. Investigation shows that
Miller dropped Into the Jail one day and
noticed a record on one of the tables. It
was an old record brought out of the vault
by ome of the officers who had been look
Ing up the history of a crook. Without
asking any questions, Miller looked through
the book and noticed that It was filled,
with the exception of half a dozen pages.
Ho immediately set out and ordered the
records which were the bone of contention
Monday night, Mitchell said that he had
nothing whatever to do with the matter
and In this Miller bears him out. Martin
and Adklne, the other members of the print
ing committee, stated yesterday that they
knew nothing of the work Miller was or
dering. Both, however, stated that they
had asked Miller time and again to adver
tise for bids when there was any printing
of Importance to be done, but Miller has
objected to this and has gone ahead with
out consulting with the other members of
the committee. Hereafter In order to have
printers accept orders It will be necessary
for two members of the printing committee
to sign orders for stationer-.

Arrangements are about completed for

Tonight at Woodman hall. Twenty-fifth

"President Bulla must have been in
humorous mood," said u member of the
Taxpayers league yesterday "when he re
ferred the request of the league regarding
the resignation of Schroeder to the Judl
clary committee. Schroeder ls chairman of
the Judiciary committee, the other members
being Kubat and Murphy. Well, really It
will not make any difference what the re
port of the committee ls because plans are
now completed for the presentation of Mr
Sthroeder's case to the grand Jury, which
meets In Omaha on November C, As for
the checking up the books of the board
It Is thought that arrangements can lie
made with the members to turn the records
over to an expert selected by the leaRU".
We do not expect any trouble about this
matter, although the board has authorized
the employment of an expert. Perhaps wo
ctn agree upon the man who ls to do 'he
work."
fmrolt!r of Help.
Nearly everyone in South Omaha appears
to be employed these days. Yesterday
a well known business man hunted the town
over for four men to unload cars of coil,
but could not find a man who wus not en
gaged. Very few men are seen looting on
the streets these days ns everyone who
wants work can find It. There is- con
siderable building Just now and carpenters
and painters are unusually busy. Laborers
sre hard to find as the packing houses are
working nearly full time.
Inventor SreUn n Maiden
"Inventor" Brltts called at The Bee office
yesterday for the purpose of advertising
the fact that he Is looking for a maiden
with 11.000 in cash. He wants to marrv
a woman with money in order that he maj
be supplied with funds for perfecting hl
perpetual motion machine. Brltts proposes
to harness the cyclone and thus furnish
power to all the world without the UBe of
coal. More than this the Inventor promises
to give J1.000 one year hence to the person
who will secure him a wife who has 11.000
to Invest in his schemes. He did not, how
ever, have the price of the advertisement
and as he left no address, maidens with
money to burn will have to address Mr,
Brltts at the general delivery.

EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE DISCUSSES IT
Mr. Milter Would AbolUb the ItrMnn
rnnt nnd lllrtnlc thp (icueral Tour
of the Clnt Proposition
1 Iteferred.
The meeting of the executive committee
of the Omaha Commercial club yesterday
afternoon was of more than ordinary In
terest, as steps were taken which may re
sult In a reorganization of the club.
The matter w-as sprung by Rome Miller,
the hotel and restaurant man. who stated
that he had waited for a long time for
i-omeone else to bring the matter to the
attention of the committee, but was now re
solved to do It himself He then decried
the operation of the restaurant in eonnei
tlon with the club, saying that the prac
tice of serving meals to persons indis
criminately, regardless of membership In
the club, was lowering the standard of
the organisation, placing It in active rem
petition with business men of the city and
was giving people the use of the club with
out return. Euclid Martin also endorsed
the opinion of Mr. Miller generally
The question ot nn Increase In the annua
dues nnd the abolition of the restaurant
was discussed. Mr. Miller declared that
the restaurant should not be abolished
without due consideration, but that the
meals should be served only to members of
the club and their Invited guests.
John S. Knox said that the first Idea In
organizing the club was to have a place
where business men could meet durlt g
the noon hour nnd discuss business af
fairs while at lunch and that he believed
this Idea should w preserved.
A. Hospc opposed any Increase In the
annual dues, saying such a course would
drive the retail dealers from membership
nnd that from bolng nrdent supporters of
the club they would become Indifferent or
unfriendly. The entire matter was re
ferred to a committee, consisting of C. H.
Pickens. Euclid Martin. Rome Miller. A
Hospe and John E. Utt.
liiMiirnncc Itntr.
- The schedule rating system of fixing In
surance rates was again discussed Sev
eral members stated that the Introduction
of this bystera had Increased their rate from
35 to 50 per cent, and that while a slight
reduction was made In the rate on buildings
the owner of the building and the merchant
occupying the same wore different persons
and the merchant was left with Increased
rates and no compensating benefits A.
Hospe submitted a report on the subject,
which was referred to the standing commit
tee on Insurance with Instructions to In
vestigate the rates In other cities on

The attempt of the Real Estate exchange
to secure a change In the assessment of
reul and personal property tor the purpose
of taxation was brought up by Mr. Martin,
who insisted that he believed th- merchants
of the city were paying as much tax upon
their stocks as they should be required to
do. Mr. Knox, a member of the Real Estnte
exchange, said that the eflorts of that
body were not aimed nt having the stocks
of merchandise assessed higher, but were
devoted to an attempt to have the chartered
corporations nnd the private property of the
citizens generally assessed at a higher rate.
A committee, consisting of C. G. Pearsc,

TILE BUILDING
DESTROYED.
WAS
The press recently Jecribrd a baffling
fire Stnoke castle pouring from the
windows of n large warehouse. Knine
after engine came dashing to the spot in
response to the alarm. Streams of water
seemed to fairlv flood the burning build
ing, but all efforts were ueless. The
structure w as a total loss. " We couldn't
put the fire out," stid the chief," because
we couldn't discover where it was lo
cated. Smoke curled from the roof and
poured from the windows, but wc had to
work by gacss. We couldn't find the
real source of the fire so we couldn't put
it out."
Now, what does that remind you of in
everyday life? Have you ever seen a
man or woman taken down suddenly
sick? A doctor is called, He tries to
overcame the disease, but it gains on
him. He calls in another doctor. Thev
6tudx the symptoms, which appear in
heart, liver, kidneys, or other organs,
and are baffled like the firemen by the
eruoke from the various windows of the
building. They can locate the symp
toms, the smoke of disease, but "they
can't locate the disease itself, the real
fire centre.
A 4-11 CALL.
Then there goei out the medical 4-1
call. A half dozen doctors are called.
They try their best, bat they can't find
the hidden source of disease. That gen
erally ends it. The fire of disease
destroys the building of the liodr. But
it isn't always so. Sometimes somelxdy
suggests trying Dr. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery, und to the general amaze
ment the fire, is put out the disease is
cured.
rDr. Pierce' i Golden Medical Discov
ery is the best medicine made,'' writes
Mr. Michael Maher, of Littlcfalls, X. Y.
(6S Centre Si. J. "I had yellow jaundice
and liver trouble in November, 190.
Was almost dead, lost sixteen pounds in
three weeks and my vhole body was as
yellow as gold, and I was sick at my
stomach all the time. I gave up to die.
1 tried three doctors nnd they gave me
tablets nnd pills, and another "one some
other stuil, but 1 went to Messrs.
O'Rourke & Hurley's drug store and
got your 'Golden Medical Discovery.'
One 'bottle cured me, and 1 thank it and
God that I am a well man.
" I am a lielievcr in God and I know
that your medicine with my prayers to
God cured me. You may publish this,
and my name and address'
THE COMMOK SENSE OP IT.
Now, how is it thnt Dr. IHerce's Golden
Medical Discovery cured when everv
thing else failed? Because it went right
to the source of the disease. It found
the fire and put it out. It wasn't like an
engine shifting its hose to play on a new
point every time a new cloud of smoke
came out. It wasn't diverted by symp
toms in liver, lungs, heart or kidnevs.
It went right for the spot where the fire
probably started in tht stomach.
When a fire breaks out in n building
the most natural place to look for its
origin and force is in the neighborhood
of the furnace, or along the line of pipes
and flues br which the sparks and smoke

are conducted. There's just as sound c
phikwopbv in Dr. Ptercr's location oh
disease as prol'''.y originating in the)
stomach The stomach is the 'nutritive,
center of the bod When the stotnacli!
and other organs of digestion and nutri
tion are diseased evrrv organ suffers,
first from lack of nutrition which causes
physical weakness- -and next from a cor
ruption of the blood which is made from
food, liecause undigested substances are
received into it and poison it. Symp
toms of this condition may appear in
heart, liver, lungs, kidneys or any organ,
while the cause is in the diseased stom
ach. When the stomnrh is cured by the
use of "Golden Medical Discovery"'' tho
svmptoms in heart, lungs, liver, etc,
disappear, just as the smoke dies down
when the fire is put out.
"1 feel it mr duty to tell of the won
dcrfnl good Dr Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discorerv antl 'l'avorite lYecrrp
tion ' have done me," writes Mrs. Ada D.
Way, of Waterlurv, Dnon Co., Ncbr.
"They have cured me ofhver complaint,
female trouble and rheumatism. A year
ago I was so miserable I felt as though
life was not worth living, but to-day
I feel quite citflerent.
After entmg I would be
taken with terrible
cram; and distress in
stomach and right side,
which would last from
three to four hours I
wns almost afraid to cat
anything To-day can
eat anything I want. In
taking' the ' Golden .Med
ical Discovery ' for stom
ach trouble I was en
tirely cured of rlietunat
ism, which I had had
for almost ten years, and
had tried almost every
thing I ever heard of to
get cured, but if I did
get a little bolter it
would only be for a Aie
and the least exposure would bring it all
back on me again. I think the ' Pavonte
Prescription ' the lesi medicine ever
known for women, and the ' Pellets '
have no equal to my notion. I keep
them in the house all the time. They
nre all the doctor wc have, had for two
years. Words cannot express my grati
tude." IT PITS T1IE MRE OCT.
There's no denrmc the fact of the
cures eflected by "Dr. Pierce's GoMen
Medical Discovery. It cures through
the stomach diseases of other organs
remote from the stomach, but which
have their origin in disease of the stom
ach und other organs of digestion and
nutrition. It puts out the fire of disease
because it goes to the Kmrve of disease,
nnd cures the stomach and other organs
of digestion and nutrition. Life is sus
tained by food and food alone. But food
will tiot sustain life except H is properly
digestcd and assimilated. Blood is di
gested food, and is food in its nutritive
form. Diseases which prevent digestion
affect the quality and quantity of the nu
trition extracted from food. As the food
is affected to the blood made from food
is also affected, and through the blood
the whole body dependent on the blood
for its vitality is affected. Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery cures discuses
of the stomach and its allied organs, and
enables the perfect digestion and as
similation of food. It purifies the blood,
increases h in quantity and improves it
in quality, by enriching it with the red
corpuscles of health,
Sometimes a dealer, tempted by the
little more profit paid on the sale of less
meritorious medicines, wiU oiler the
customer a substitute as being J'just ns
good " as the " Discovery." It is better
for him because it pays better, but it is
not as good for you, if you want the
medicine that has cured others, and
-which you believe will cure yon.
