I The Unity club met nt the office of City
lEIoctrlclan Shurlg last night and listened
to two papers on "Modern Science." Tho
'first donlt with modern chemistry nnd was
presented by W.. II. Low. Tho speaker
traced chemistry to tho alchemists, who, In
their suarrh for the "philosopher's stone"
und tho "elixir of life," first made dis
coveries In the realms of chemistry which
Worn Inter applied to tho practical business
of life.
In all the arts nnd sciences chemistry
plays Its part.- It has succeeded cxpcnslvo
and crudo mechanical methods In many In
itancos and has given to thu" world many
Bew practical materials.
Tho second paper, "Modern Methods of
rroduc.lng Light." writ read by B. V.
BhurlK nnd was Illustrated hy demonstra
tions, the electrician having provided for
tho Instruction of his hearers tho latest
Invention In electric lamps.
Taking up the subject of Illumination
from tho lime a Frenchman first discovered
that solid tallow around a wick could ho
Jnado to produr.o a light, thus succeeding
tho torcluw iind oil of earlier days,- he
traced' the development of lighting devices
through the periods of tho candle, tho oil
lamp, tho liuroBeno lamp, tho gas burner
nnd tho earllf r electric lamps to tho latest
lamp thai Invented by Prof. Ncrnst of
(loott Ingot), Goriminy, ono of which ho ex
hibited. Ho brought out the fact that the dis
covery of gnu hud tho discovery of the
cloctrlo arc wcro made about the same
time, but on account of the expense of
producing tho electrical cuircnt gns bc
enmo n commercial commodity, while tho
lire light remained a laboratory experiment
for three-quarter of n century, being
brought . to Its slngo of commcrclnl possi
bility In America by n long line of lllustrous
knvantR and Inventors.
1 In explaining the Ncrnst lamp tho speaker
jald that Its IiIrIi efficiency was due to tho
pectillui; construction of the "glower,"
which Is composed of metallic oxides, which
urn not destroyed when rendered Incan
descent In open nl'r, thus obviating the
necessity for a vacuum.
In his demonstration It appeared that; tho
"glower" becamo Incandescent much more
plowly than the carbon loop In tho ordinary
Jncnndcscent (amp, but the light was more
powerful and perfectly steady, comhlnlng
thu best features of tho arc, and Incan
descent' lamps. The new lnmp Is operated
with nn alternating current, which pre
Bervcs Kb efficiency longer than when a
fllrect cWreut Is used. '
Tho speaker said that tho future develop

Wells became Involved In a quarrel with n

ter-goers had an opportunity of seeing Fred
erick Wnrdo In n new role. So finished was
his work In tho part that at tho end of
tho second net, which wns n particularly
pathetic one, he rccolved four curtain calls
ami was forced to mako a speech, which he
did In n hnppy vein.
Mr. Wnrdo makes of Holphcgor a manly
but guileless character, two characteristics
lacking in tho Itinerant showman of this
country. In his bringing out and blending
of tho two qualities ho wns Intelligently
consistent. His work nlong theso lines In
the first two acts was a shrowd prepara
tion for tho niidlcnco's feelings, as It gave
placid enjoyment excepting at tho closo of
the second act, when that enjoyment gavo
way to sympathetic pity. In the Inst two
acts pity turned to admiration. His sccno
with Lavcrennes at the garden fete, In
which ho demanded the knowledge of the
whereabouts of his wife, was dramntlcally
strong. One of his clcvorest bits was his
Impersonation of Lnverennes and denuncia
tion of his persecutors In the last act. and
his telling of tho story of the vagabond
Helphegor. Hero he ran the entire gamut
of human emotions, finishing with the
happy-go-lucky nclphegor of the first act,
when the tide turned In his favor. Warde
can sway an audience at will.
The npplauso the audlenco gave Barry
Johnstonn for his clever Impersonation of
tho tottering old Duke de Montrazon was a
tribute to his masterly handling of a dim
cult character. Charles U. Herman gavo
a dignified nnd well-drawn characterization

for a special meeting of tho city council to
be held nt 11 ;30 this morning. The session
wns stated In the call as being "for the
purpose of Introducing ordinances, consider

second time, ami referring any such ordi
nances to committees,"
The matter to be brought up Is the ordl
nance containing the Union Pacific contran

was thought by some that the second ordl

TOLEDO FIRM SPEAKS FOR ANOTHER IStUE
llnjs thr t.nt find MnUe nn Offer for
the Mntnrltlr of Xrxl Ymi
t'riipltlnn Considered
n (iooil One.
The recent Issue of South Omaha refund-
lng bonds has been purchased by Spltser
& Co. of Toledo. This Issue Is msde up
of $35,344 special district bonds wherein
tho courts havo declared the Improvement
tax Illegally levied and 124,536 In general
Indebtedness refunding bonds. Word was
received by the city clerk yesterday that
Spltzer & Co. would tako the Issuo at 6
per cent nnd tho offer was Immediately
accepted. Along with thn accentancc came
an offer to purchase nil of tho maturities
of the city for 1902 at tho samo rate of
Interest. As soon ns Mayor Kelly returns
there will be a conference and It Is thought
that the city will bo glad to mako tho salo
nt tho premium offered. If the sale Is
made at this time thero will be no need
for tho finance committee to worrv next
year nnd no maturities will go by default,
as has been tho case during the last twelve
month. Councilman Ed Johnston and
Treasurer Koutsky aro now engaged In
figuring up the next yenr's maturltlos In
nrdnr tn xnhmlt thn W.inrtM tn ih Tnlndn
bond company.
In speaking of this proposition yesterday
a well known banker said thnt ho consid
ered the proposition n good one. "If the
fault for n wholo year tho credit of tho
city will bo lilch nnd when tho 1D03 Issue
becomes duo thoro will bo no trouble In
i7tspo8lng of the securities."
Tho members of the council who hare
rend the Spltzer proposition aro favorable
to It, ns they dcslro to escapo the trouble
nnd annoyance, ef having to borrow money
each time Issues of bonds become duo.
Thero Is little doubt but that tho propo
sition will bo nccoptcd by tho city.
Thnt Wnrrnnt Cull.
The holders of tho overlap warrants aro
greatly Interested In the coming decision
of Treasurer Koutsky as to whether he
wilt call tho overlap warrants when ho
makes a general call In January.
A business man who handles largo num
bers of city warrants in tho courso at a
year said yesterday: "I have investigated
this matter and I find that tho talk of Dan
Hannon and Joo Koutsky Is all a bluff. They
nssert that they aro Troasurer Koutsky's
bond aud that they will withdraw If a call
for tho overlap Is Issued. To bo plain,
Koutsky hail no bond. Tho bond he filed
prior to tho new charter was never ap-
proved by tho mayor, although tho council
Boni u to tno mayor tor approval, w nn
tho now churter In force the old law Is re-
pealed ana Koutsny has nover turnisnea me
bond provided for In tho charter na It now
exists, l havo consulted attorneys in mis
matter and their opinion is that Mr.
Koutsky has no bond, although he Is dally
handling large sums of city money. No
one questions the Integrity of Mr. Koutsky,
but It In a fact thnt he has not compiled
with the law; but this is through no rauit
of his, as he has endeavored to do so.'
At the banks the question Is considered
o be a serious one., One prominent banker
said, that if the troasurer. failed to call tho
outstanding warrants, there would not bo a
name or a misincss man in tne city wnu i
would buy city warrants. Such action would,
ho asserted, bring about a peculiar stato
of affairs and tend to deprlvo city employes
nd others from securing money earned.

OrKfinlrr llltn.
Fred Uauman, business manager of the-
Walters' union nnd organizer of that union
takes exception to a recent report which
has gained currency to the effect tht the
union had resolved to make war upon the
colored waiters of the city,
"I wUh to deny this report," said he.
"Tho Walters' union does not dealro to
make, war on the colored waiters nnd the
National union stands ready to organise a
union of these men as soon as they express
a wish for such action. In organizing the
restaurants and hotels of the city tho union
left a class of houses which employ a largo
number of colored waiter out of ny at-
tempt to force tho smployment of union
waiters. We recognize, the fact that the
colored waiters are entitled to employment
nnd no attempt has been mado to taXo them
from the regular hotels. I must say, how
ever, that the last attempt to organize tho
colored waiters In this city was a failure,
from tho first there wns n clash ns to tho
officer who would handle tho funds, and
when the organizer decided that all funds
should bo paid to the financial secretary
nnd hy him to the treasurer, the recording
eecretory left tho hall with tho dooks anu
n more meetings wero held.
Another report is that tne waiters
non opposes tho formation of tho union
t restaurant and hotel men. This Is a
mistake. In many places we havo found
t"t "ch a. union Is of benefit not only to
tho employer, but to tho employe, as tho
empioyo enn ueni wua nis employer n
"lss and not with Individuals. Hy union
tho employer Is brought to see that tho In
terests of employer nnd employe are Iden
tical and have no reason to oppose the
change."

The noonday feast throughout the city
Thursday by no means constituted the en
tire Thanksgiving among tho city's poor.
As a matter of fact those who wero engaged
in the distribution of food and clothing
were kept busy all afternoon and over at
the City Charities station, at Eighteenth
and St. Mary's avenue, tho work wns still
In progress yesterday.
The work this year was conducted some
what differently than usual, tho gcnernl
distribution being done thlolly by organiza
tions In which men hnd tho supervision, and,
nccordlng to n group ot youngsters who
ought to know, If experience counts for any
thing, '"Twnsn't no Thanksglvln' 'tall th'
Jliit glv's some close And snmo stuff to lug
home to cook, septln' down to thn Voluu
tees!" Tho samo estimate of whnt really
constitutes Thanksgiving was evidently
shared by some of their elders as well,
for thero was no little comparison among
them between tho substantial, wholesome,
though uncooked food given out to them and
tho baked chickens and other proparod food
which was so generally supplied last year.
In speaking of tho work, Mrs. T. F. Pear
man, superintendent of the City Charities,
nnd one of tho most experienced workers In
the city, said:
"Of course, many of them ,aro unworthy,
but that cannot he helped und wn feel that
we havo reached most of the deserving onos,
having supplied over iiOO families, most of
whom wn know. It Is n difficult matter to
discriminate, for these people are possessed
of a common characteristic that tn tho un
experienced would mark them all as un
gratotul and unworthy. They will com
plain and grumble, but In reality this Is
only nn exhibition of humnn naturo In Its
cruder form nnd they aro really grateful
for what they receive.
Hoy l'nlt of Cullr.
"Fobji ,nstnnce, two small boys thnt I
know lo ho deserving little fellowR fol
lowed me around yesterday, fairly stuffing
their pockets with every scrap of food or
clothing they could get their hands on.
Knowing quite well where the missing
things were, I thought to obtain a confes
sion by giving them something and then
Inquiring for the vanished articles. Tho
very first to volunteer to assist In
the search were these two boys,
looking mo Innocently tn tho faco and
thanking me for my gifts, which they stuffed
Into their pockets tho better to hldo the
things for which they wero npparontly
searching diligently. Another Instance.
Ono child whom I know well came to me
with a most pitiful story of thn generally
distressing conditions nt home, Her mother
being bIcIc of pneumonia, I told her that I
would ndd some unusual delicacy and cau
tioned her regarding Its care. Our conver
sation was overheard by those nbout us, and
Immediately tho entire gathering was seized
with such violent coughing that In self-defense
I was compelled to order all tho doors
and windows opened to admit fresh air to
check It. My remedy had the desired effect,
and a very little of the chilling air sufficed
to quiet them, but from that tlmo tho list
of Invalid relatives Increased. Tot I know
most of tho peoplo to te really deserving.'''
When the workers arrived at ?:30 o'clock
this morning to finish the distribution of
clothing ninety-two wen, women and chil
dren wero huddled about tho entrance. A
rush followed the opening of tho doors and
it required much offort on the part of the
men to restrain tho crawd. Fully 200 were
fitted out with clothing yoBterday morning.

Whit Is left for th women of America nfter rending such letter ns tho
above, but to beliove. Don't some of you who arc sick nnd miserable feci hovr
wicked you arc to remain so, mnkinp llfo a burden for yourself and your
frionds when a cure Is easily and inexpensively obtained ? lion't you think it
would pay to drop some of your old prejudices as Mrs. Smith says, and " Try
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, which is better than all tho
doctors for euros ? " Surely, the experienco of hundreds of thousands of
women whom the Compound has cured should convince all women of the wis
dom of taking1 tho advice that Mrs. Smith offers in her letter above published.
Read What firs. Burnham says: ,
"Dear Mas. Pinkham : Words fall to express how thankful' T am to you
for your advice, and I "cannot speak too highly of Lydia K. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound. I was sick for three years with female weakness ;
I had dizzy spells, headache, backache, feet and hands were cold all the time,
would get tired and faint very easy I also had dropsy and was troubled with
leucorrhrea, I suffered for two weeks beforo each menstrual period and'my
ovaries would swell Tery badly. I took lots of medicines from doctors, hut
received no benofit. To plcaso my husband I tried Lydia K. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, and I am now a well woman, and your Compound
alone did it." Mas. 11. W. Uurnham, Russell, Mich. (Jan. 31, 1901).
Follow tho record ot this medicine, and remember that these thousands
of eures of women whoso letters aro constantly printed In this paper were not
brought about by something else," but by Lydia 13. Pinkham's Vege
