The ur dltuatlnn on the Mlnsourl river
decidedly lntereHtlnK Mnce the American
JtellnlUK company hati Announced that It will
(innd no mote DURar Into this territory at
l;ue price of 14. W por hundretlwolKht. This
liewa was received Tuesday evening Just bo
I lore 6 o'clock. In An Instant thn wires
kto busy with (ho wholemle dealers tele
liraphlnx and telephoning to their repre
sentative to take no mora sugar ordora for
lless than $4. AS, thn now price, and to take
aone of theft without providing for their
Upprovn! by trio house and thn right to can
;cl all or any part of tho ordor at discre
tion. Yesterday word was received from the
broker representing the American HeflnlnR
company at this placo saying that probably
sic or isht cam of sucar would be deliv
ered here at J thn former reduced price to
make It possible for local Jobbers to rIvo
an allotment to each of theli customers at
the low price of last weok. There aro or
ders for probably 2,000,000 sacks of sugar In
Omaha at this time. Somo of the retailers
have not received one pound on theso or
ders. Tuesday as soon as the new price
waa received clerks began to make a list of
the orders on hand, taking the names of the
retailers, but making no record of the
amount ordered, as It was decided that It
would be Impossible to mako an allotment
on the basis of quantity, hut that each
dealer, ho his order large 'or small, would
receive an equal amount. It Is hoped thnt
the Jobbers "enn assign two aacks of 100
pounds each to each customer, but thero
can bo nothing definite about this, as It Is
Dot known how much sugar Is enrouto to
Omaha, andonly that sugar now on tho
cars blltert'to this point can be sold at tho
former price. The brokers announce thnt
It will probably be the first of next week
before sugar can' he Aetlvercd at J4.RS, and
this estimate is used In taking orders at
thn new price.
While tho 'low price of American Iteflnlng
company stock prevails fhore Is little doing
In tho sugar of othor refiners, hut whero
tho demand Is Imperative! National company
sugar Is being sold at $4.90, the prlco which
prevailed beforo tho reduction. Tho Amer
ican Beet company Is making no attempt at
deliveries, all of tt product being stored
Omaha warehouses receiving n considerable
portion.
Among local Jobbers the" increaso In the
price of fluga? Is looked upon as n confes
sion on tho part of tho American Refining
company that It has been defeated in Its
object and that it has despaired of Involv
ing the beet, sugar people in thn struggle.

The condition of A. A. Hohoul, tergrant
of police, Is said to be a trifle better,
though tho doctors report him still n very
sick man. Since 11 o'clock Tuesday night
he has had two strokes of paralysis. He
was sleeping quietly nt midnight of Wednes
day, the symptoms of the night before be
ing much lets severe, and the physicians
hope to defer tho fatal third stroke for an
Indefinite period. The power of speech re
turned to him during the day and his last
words before falling asleep woro that he
hoped to be ablo to go to-work this morn
ing. Ills mood was cheerful and ho seemed
not to reallie the seriousness of his condi
tion. Sergeant Debout Is ono of the best known
members of the police force and Is one of
the oldest In point of service, having been
appointed to tho office Cf Jailer in 1858,
when Weber S. Seavey was chief. Fly his
uniform courtesy and gentlemanly hearing,
as well as by his efficiency as an officer, ho
has won many friends In that time.
Ho was born In 1864 In n smnll country
town of Ohio, whero he lived and went to
school during his early boyhood. When 28
years old he came to Nebraska with his
father and mother and settled In Nebraska
City, and there his father, William Helmut,
who was qulto wrnlthy at ono time, In
vested In a lino of packets plying between
Omaha, St. Joseph, Kansas City and other
Missouri river points. "Al." as ho was
known, worked for his father on one of
these boats, shipping somotlmvs ns pilot
And sometimes as clerk. He continued at
this until the boom struck Omaha In the
early '80s, and then located hero, securing
employment as a bookkeeper for an Insur
ance rnmpany.
January 18, 1R88, ho was appointed to n
place on the city pollen force, with thn rank
of sergeant, which ofllco he has hold to the
prosent time. He first Herved as city Jailor,
a position corresponding with that of tho
prosent desk sergeant. Lnter he was as
signed to what Is known as outside duty,
and ns recently ns two months ago was
given the position as court ofllcer.
Seven years ngo ho married Mrs. Harriet
B. Hough, his present wife, who for some
time has been In feeblo health. They have
no children.

Lois Holcombo Adelaide Thurston
Tho first of thn present season's now
stars to Introduce herself to local theater
goers came Wednesday In tho person of
Adelaide Thurston, a young woman of
rather limited experience upon tho dra
mntlo stage, but one whoso talents nnd
ability have within threo years elevated
her to Claim a position In the stellar ranks
of tho theatrical world. Miss Thurston',4
appearance In Omaha at both tho afternoon
and evening performance: was In the na
ture of a personal triumph. Tho demon
strntlon of approval bestowed upon her was
not only liberal, but spontaneous an well
Coming a total stranger and receiving
nearly 'a doien curtain calls, to which she
wns compelled to respond after tho third
act last night, could hardly help gratifying
a young actress. Her performance was a
uniformly excellent one thanks to her con
scientious and painstaking efforts. Not Ht
any tlmo did she slight a sccno. No mat
ter of how little Importance each Incident
was given tho same careful treatment ns
tho moro effective ones. If there wcro
moro actors and actresses who followed
Miss Thurston's methods playwrights would
suffer less nt tho hands of tho critics.
As for Miss Thurston's vehicle, whllo It
cannot he termed n strong play. It is n
pretty one, with comedy, pathos and senti
ment mixed in such proportions ns to muko
it thoroughly enjoyable throughout. It Is
n mixture of tho "Mrs. Uano'g Defence''
nnd "Way Down East" types, with now
and then a. touch of melodramatic coloring.
Tho supporting company Is not strong arid
not capable of giving Miss Thurston the
support she deserves, although somo of tho
parts were well hnndled. The engagement
was for but n slnglo dny.

Olfnrril llltn.
Local polltmlans nnd those interested' In
municipal affairs arn already talking about
tho election to be held In April. An en-
tiro ticket, with tho exception of tax com
missioner, Is to he elected.
Under tho exlstlne charter the six mem
bers' of tho oounoll now in office retire nnd
tho election proclamation will call for the
election of two councllmen to serve for
ono year nnd four to servo for two years.
After this first city election under the new
charter two councllmen will be chosen eaoh
year for two-year terms.
In tho republican ranks Mayor Kelly Is
conceded by a great many to be a strong
candidate and It Is understood that ho Is
now setting up pins for a rcnomlnatlon.
This will bo ti accord with tho usual cus
tom of renominating a mayor for a second
term.
Frank Kout.tky, present city treasurer, Is
an active aspirant for the mayoralty nnd
ho is already figuring to get tho nomina
tion, lie oxpects to force his nomination
on tho republican convention by securing
nn endorsement of tho labor unions prior
to tho holding of oltlier the domocratlCior
republican conventions. With .this Idea In
vlow Koutsky Is making arrangements with
n certain labor paper to support him and
to sectiro tho central labor union endorse
ment ns early In tho spring at possible,
The next republican candldnto of Impor
tance Is W. P. Atlklns, who Is now presi
dent of tho council. Adkttifl, however, says
that If Mnyor Kelly Is n candtdAto for ro-
nomination he will not mako any attempt
to secure the nomination, August Milter
Is also being talked of for mnyor and as ho
hns (ittltc a following he mny cut qulto a
figure In tho convention.
With tho division of, the city Into six
wards thn rouncllmcn will hereafter ,bo
elected nt large nnd the cnmpnlgn will
most likely bo exceedingly Interesting. With
six now members to elect nnd a mayor and
treasurer along with n clerk, both parties
will make a hard fight for supremacy.
Nehronlrr .Mny ItrxlRn.
It Is reported on tho streets that Theo-
doro Schroeder is preparing to moyo to
Oklahoma, nnd If so ho will naturally re
sign his position as n member of the Board
of Education. In case of vacancies the
president of tho board names tho appointee,
subject to the confirmation, of a majority of
the board. With tho withdrawal of Schroe
der the board will bo made up of six dem
ocrats and two republicans.
Very naturally President nulla will np
point a democrnt, so that tho republicans
will still be In tho minority. In speaking
of tho matter last night Mr. Iiulla snld
that ho had received no official notification
of Mr. Schrocder's Intention to resign,
therefore ho had not considered any appli
cants for tho place. In thn spring Ityan,
Iiulla nnd Klcencc retlro and thn rcpub
llcnns will mnko an effort to secure con
troj of the board by electing well known
business men and republicans to tho places
made vacant. If Schroeder quits, ns le re
ported, there will be four places on the
board to fill next spring,
ItniinlrlUB I'svemrnta,
It Is tho snmo old story again this fall.
Tho pavement pn Twenty-fourth street is
wearing nut. It Is full of holes nnd some
thing must be done to prepnro It for sorvlce
during the winter. In ordor to havo thle
work done as economically as possible, the
council has ordered tho street commissioner
to All tho holes with finely broken stone
and Portland cement. This work should be
doho at once, but no one knowfl when It
will be sturted ns tho ntrcot commissioner
is over In Iowa visiting friends. There Is
so much wear on this pavement that It Is
a constant expenso to tho city..
As soon as matters shape themselves
so we can," Bald a member of the council
yesterday afternoon, "a proposition will bo
submitted for a new pavement. What Is
needed Is a good houvy baso to start wlfW
nnd then not less than two Inches of as
phalt. Such a pavement will wear" for n
lone time. Tho thin sheotlng of asphalt
now laid soon wears through as tho baso la
not heavy enough to stand tho traffic. Next
spring somothlng will havo to be done
toward laying a better Bnd moro substan
tial pavement."

Dates nro being claimed by a number of
breeders of fancy stock for tho winter
months. Tho first nle of stock of lmpor
tnnco will be held in the new pavilion at

been hooked as far ahead as May. Among
tho stock to bo sold will be Shorthorns,
Ilorefords, Galloways, Aberdeen-Angus, .etc,
South Omnha Is qulto a favorite point for
fancy sales and stockmen nil, over tho.west
look to this market to secure flrst-class
breeding cattle.
Intra Shippers Entlumlnatlc.'
Live stock shipments from Iowa' havo bean
on the Increase lately and tho reason Is
apparent. Tho prlceo paid here and the
treatment accorded to shippers by tho man
agers of the stock yards are what bring the
trade. Up to dato tho receipts of hogs and
sheep show an increaso over last year .and
It Is expected that the decrease In cattle
shipments will be mado up before the close
of tho calendar year.
