Premises.
All members ot the city council were pres
ent at the meeting last night and Mayor
Koutsky occupied the chair.
Adklns, chairman of the committee on
public buildings, brought up the question
of renewing the lease for the present city
hall building. He suggested that a th
flve-year lease now held by the city ex
piree In December, something ought to be
done to either renew the lease or mske pro
vision for other quarters. To this end h
offered a resolution empowering th com
mittee on public building and ground to
enter Into a contract with the agent ot th
building for one year.
Smith objected to thl unless the agent
would agree to make some Improvement
and do some cleaning up. It waa declared
by Smith that th heating apparatus In th
building la In bad oondltion.
The resolution of Adklns was, after aom
discussion, changed so a to direct tb pub
lic property commute to make other ar
rangements for city offices In case th
agent ot th building now occupied by the
city declined to comply with the requests
of the council In the matter of giving better
heating service and making repairs to ths
building. Every member of the council
voted in favor of the amended resolu
tion.
Communications wore read from th Fire
and Police board, regarding the need of
repairing hose cart No. 1, repairing the
Jail and the Installation of patrol boxes.
These communications were referred to
the finance committee without comment.
F. N. Clark, representing J. L. Brandel
St Sons, bsnkers of Omaha, was present.
He presented a telegram from W. J. Hayes
Sons of Cleveland, which was read by
ths clerk. This telegram was to the effect
that the buyers of the overlsp bonds would
forward by mall to the city officials com
plete Instructions for the shipping ot the
overlap bonds.
At the suggestion of City Attorney Mur-
dock, the damage claim of Bertha Kunkel
tor $200 will not be allowed.
Seven ordinances providing for the laying
of two plank sidewalks, mostly In the
southern and southeastern part of the
city, were passed.
The Missouri avenue sewer Is to be ex
tended about 400 feet unless the mayor
vetoes the resolution passed by the coun
cil.
Adklns brought up the question of a
road to the river for the dumping of gar
bage. Under Instructions from the council
a road Is to be constructed at aa small
a cost possible, aa It Is deemed neces
sary that this work be done as soon a

Those who have ever felt it keen, cutting pains, or witnessed the intense
suffering of others, know that Rheumatism is torture, and that it is rightly
called "The King of Pain."
All do not sutler alike. Some are suddenly seized with the most excrucia
ting pains, and it seems every muscle and joint in the body waa being torn
asunder. Others feel only occasional slight pains for weeks or months, whea
a sudden change in the weather or exposure to damp, chilly winds or night
air brings on a fierce attack, lasting for days perhaps and leaving the patient
with a weakened constitution or crippled and deformed for all time.
An acid, polluted condition of the blood is the cause of every form and
variety of Rheumatism, Muscular, Articular, Acute, Chronic, Inflammatory
and Sciatic, and the blood must be purged and purified' before there is ua
end to your aches and pains. External applications, the use of liniments and
plasters do much toward temporary relief, but such treatment does not reach
the real cause or cleanse the diseased blood; butS. S. S., the greatest of all
blood purifiers and tonics, does cure Rheumatism by antidoting and neutralizing
the poisonous acids and building up the weak and sluggish blood. It is safe
ana reliable in an iorms oi Kneumatisra. it makes tue
old acid blood rich and nutritious, and the pain-tortured
muscles and joints and the weak and shattered nerves
are made strong, and the entire system is invigorated
and toned up by the use of this great vegetable remedy.
If you have Rheumatism, write us, and our physicians will furnish without
charge any information desired, and we will mail free our book on Rheumatism.
