CANNOT SAVE THE FOREST
Officials of Geographical s-vey Csa.
et Act oa Dr. Kerr's
Sngrgestioa.
Senator Millard has received a communi
cation from the officials of the Geographical
survey saying that they can take no action
In the matter of the protest forwarded from
Dr. David R. Kerr against the destruction
of tJe native forest along the liver bank
between Omaha and Bellevue. Some days
sgo ths senator sent the letter from the
president of Bellevue college, who was led
to make the protest because of the rapid de
struction of ths timber caused by ths
operations of a saw mill. The officials of
ths Geographical survey say the same point
has been raised In the southern Appalatchla
states, which passed laws memorialising
th national government to pass the neces
sary legislation. This has been done and
as the timber which led to Dr. Kerr's pro
test Is on private land nothing can be done
except It be purchased by the state.

PRISONERS WORK ON STREETS
Fall Flae Weeds from the Gatters
sa Sons People Contslala
Aboat It.
City prisoners during the past week have
finished the Job of pulling ths little, fine
weeds out of the gutters on Bt. Marys Ave
nue from Seventeenth to Twenty-seventh,
and will be moved to some other street ths
coming week. Several complaints . have
reached the city hall regarding -city
prisoners doing this work, some of them
based on the disinclination of residents te
having petty criminals exposed on the
publlo thoroughfares, or having them In
their neighborhoods, and others on ths
ground that the work should be done by
honest men who need It.
Bo far as the prisoners are concerned
they are ananimous In the declaration that
they would rather spend their time In nice
easy Jobs like pulling weeds than In the
cells at the municipal bastile, and In
cidentally add that whin they work they
get more to eat. . So far as the work Is
concerned. It Is stated at the city hall that
If the prisoners do not do tt It wll not be
done at all, so that honest men are not
bslng deprived of the work.
These unpaved streets havs been rounded
up and put In good condition the past week:
Templeton, Twenty-fourth to Twenty
seventh; Pratt. Twenty-fourth to Twenty
seventh; Manderson, Sixteenth to Twenty,
fourth; Tenth, Union to Bancroft; Bancroft.
Fifth to Sixth; Sixth. Castellar to Bancroft
A new span, requiring 2,000 feet of lumber
has been put In the city bridge at Eighth

Delegates oa Side Trips from
. Deaver.
Reports from Denver state that the
Christian Endeavors, who were there In
convention, availed themselves of the op
portunity to visit the Tellowstone and the
west as no party of excursionists has ever
done before. More than 16,000 persons
came In on excuralon tickets, and It is
entimated that two-thtrda of them took
aide trips from Denver. The bulk of the
travel was out to Salt Lake City, around
the loop, up to Silver Plume and other
well worn excursion points. Beside these
trips the Yellowstons ranked next as a
point of Interest, and fully 1,000 went into
the park. All of the roads wars cramped
for facilities for handling ths business to
ths park, as parties of as high as seventy
seven people went together, and the entire
1,000 entered the park within a week's time.
Death Dao to Heart Disease.
The verdict of the Jury In the coroner'
Inquest over the remains of John H. Sap
plngton, the colored man who died so nud-
denly early Saturday morning, was "That
he came to his death as the result of heart
(allure aggravated by the excssiva heat."
The autopsy revealed a diseaned condition
of the heart, but as an analysis of ilia
contents of the stomach was not completed
when the Inquttst was held. It la not known

Ths Grand View Improvement club met
last evening with a good attendance at
Its rooms near Fourth and Lincoln streets
with Chairman Sunblad presiding. Ths
question ot Uniting wlU the central or
ganisation ot the improvement clubs of
the city at the court house Tuesday even
ing was discussed and decided upon. Mr.
Cook moved the appointment of a com
mittee of Ave with Chairman Sunblad as
a member ex-offlclo to attend the meet
ing. The following were named as suoh
committee: II. P. Cook, Frank Ellison, C.
Paach, .A. Green and P. Christiansen.
.The street cur committee made a verbal
report to the effect that it had conferred
with the street car officials, but nothing
definite had been decided upon by the
rtreet car company. The proposal te raise
a sufficient fund to employ an attorney
to asBlet the club In pushing the matter
and to look Into its legal aspects was dis
cussed and was deferred to the next meet
ing of the club for further consideration.
It was brought out during the discussion
that Councilman Bach is opposed to the
extension of the streetcar line to Center
street as generally desired by the club,
but that he is not averse to the line go
ing out south to Bancroft street The rea
sons for his objections to the Center street
extension were not stated. It was held
by some of the
the three -South Slds Improvement clubs
to be. held July 29 at National hall on
South Thirteenth street.
The secretary was directed to extend a
written invitation to Councilman Bach to
be present at the next meeting of the club
which will be held Saturday evening, July
25. Attorney Carr and Gas Inspector Lynch
are also Included In 'the Invitation. The
special matter for consideration at 'that
meeting will be ths street car extension
question.
MUSICIANS WILL PROTEST
Expnlaloa of Delegates from Central
Labor I'mloa ftrlags oa aa
Appeal.
Ths Musicians union is not to accept ths
action of the Central Labor union Friday
In expelling Its delegates and placing a
fine upon the organisation without a pro
test, and according to ths . statement of
one of the prominent members ths matter
will be brought to the attention of. ths
Amerlcen Federation of Labor - through
the national organisation of ths musicians,
which Is affiliated with ' the - federation,
from which ths Omaha Central Labor
Union holds Its charter.
"In the first place," said this member,
"we were fined and expelled without formal
trial; we were disciplined for keeping our
men In places which now employ strictly
union men In all branches over which any
union holds Jurisdiction. We did nothing
more that comply with the terms of our
contracts with those places, and do not
believe that any responsible labor organi
sation will criticise us for that action.
"The matter la particularly unfortunate
for us at this time, for ths reason that our
union It not united upon the question of
! affiliation. There are some of our members
who do not believe that musicians havs
anything In common with other workmen,
and who look upon muslo ss an art which
hnnlil nnt ha rnnnivlMl In nw -
club that Sixth street i ,lth fh, tra.M T. m " '
had been graded to Center street for the 1 ,...,- hn.,v Knii.v. ,.. . ,-v
ostensible purpose of extending the Har- ing mm ,houd b, tffliated, ,nd consider
ney street line to Center, and that If the , earners ss laboring m t .h..
proper coercive measures were taken under
the law, the much desired line would soon
be In operation. The residents of that seo-
tlon now have no street car accommoda
tions nearer than Tenth street. The com
mittee will have another meeting with the
street car officials and hopea In spite of
Mr. Bach's opposition to secure the ex
tension to Center street on Sixth. It is
sdmitted that Sixth street south of Center
is In bad condition and that a further ex
tension of the line than Center on Sixth
would be impracticable.
Demand for Lights.
The matter of additional street lights
was also discussed and It was shown that
there were no lights on Fifth street from
Woolworth to the Missouri river. One
member ststed that some of the lamps
In ths lower part of the district are not
lighted oftener than thirty-five times dur
ing ths entire year. The necessity of a
light at Fifth and Hickory streets was
shown to bs imperative, and that at the
same tlms It would be the means of at
tracting many visitors to that section In
order to snjoy the magnificent view of the
Missouri river valley from that elevated
point Messrs. Jacobaon and Andersen
were appointed a special committee to
visit the South Side and Second Ward Im
provement club meeting on Wednesday
evening next to conf r with Gas Inspector
Lynch on the subject of additional street
lights for Grand View.
The club has ben In existence but two
months, snd though small In numbers,
has accomplished much and hopes to ac
complish mors In ths near future. Much
Interest Is taken U Us Joiat meeting of
sense. This majority now has to fight
both sides of the controversy, and we are
resolved to have the opinion of the highest
body ss to our rights."

Colonel Carr of Foarth Cavalry aad
Colonel Miller of Twenty-Second
Infantry Are Among New
Brigadier Generals.
The list of army promotions announced
from Washington yesterday Includes a
number of ths officers of the Department of
the Missouri. Chief among them Is the pro
motion of Brigadier General S. 8. Sumner,
the' new commander of the Department of
the Missouri, to be major general. This

Major General Bates, now transferred to
the command ot the Department of the
Lakes, been commanded by brigadier gen
erals. Among ths officers of this department, and

Colonel Camillo C. C. Carr of the Fourth
cavalry, at Fort Riley, who becomes a
brigadier general and Is retained In ths
service. He will be assigned to command
the cavalry and field artillery school at
