The committee on street lighting sub
mitted the following report, which was
received and placed on tile without further
commendation :
Tour committee on the examination of
the gas contract for street lighting would
respectfully report that we find that f'oun
cilnien Evans, O'Urlen, Back Dybnll, Hunt
Ingtun and Hchroodor voted In favor of a
resolution to extend the contract for two
years from January 1, 19U4, and that the
resolution was approved by the mayor;
that this was done in direct violation of the
provisions of the city charter, which pro
vides that bids shall ba advertised for and
taken before the letting of any contract,
lour committee finds further that had an
opportunity been given for bids that a
lower bid would iave been submitted,
which, being accepted, would have saved
the city many thousands of dollars.
Your committee finds further that the
gas company violated the provisions of Its
Franchise at an earner time wnen it re
fused to bid for street lighting when asked
to do ao by tha city council; the franchise
of the gas company expressly providing
that the company will, wnen and so often
as requested to do so by the city of Omaha
during the continuance of Its franchise,
bid fur the sunulv of sas at a rate which
hall not exceed for each lamp burning gne
at tha rate of five cuhlo feet per hour for
11 nar annum oer lamo. Your committee
finds further that test shows that the
W!iharh hiirnera now In use on street
lamps only consumes three and one-half
cubla feet of gas per hour, so that when
tha gas company collects $25 per year for
each lamp It doea ao In further violation
of Its franchise.

W. F. Johnson said i "Thers la no' legal
contract with the gas company, and that
this franchise is being openly and con-
atantly violated and If some cltlxen should
go Into court Its validity could be success
fully challenged." '
A motion prevailed thanking the city
council for the usa of tha council commit
tee room for the use of the club for meet
ing purposes.
A communication waa read from tha Wast
Omaha Improvement club requesting the
Federal club to open Its doors for member

tha Central Park Improvement club took
exactly tha opposite position.
Pursuant with a communication from the
North Omaha Improvement club, tha secre
tary of the Federated club was directed to
request that tha Federated club be furn
lahed with copies of all annual reports of
tha city and Its several departments, espe
dally In view of tha fact that said reports
have not been furnished tha public for the

Cigarette, Vlvandlero Jane Kennark
Jane Kennark has Just cause to feel com
plimented by her reception In Omaha last
night. The audience that witnessed her
presentation of Cigarette In "Under Two
Flag" was one -of the largest of the sea
son, and waa more than appreciative; it
wm cordial. Shi need no longer dmbt
her locnl popularity. Fha was an established
favorite here In the daya of tha Woodwari
Block company at the Crelghton, and her
too few visits since that time have not
brought about any lessening of the feeling
the people entertain toward her.
In the role of Cigarette she appeara to
better advantage now than last season.
when she flr.it presented the part here.
Not that she gives It any more attention or
pains, but there Is the easy certainty of
the situations that comes with experience.
and sureness of result that seemed lacking
when she first gave us tha part. Her amp-
port, too, Is better In a great many ways,
and with ti ls com?a aaMstanet to the star.
MIks Kennark makes Cigarette much auch
a personage as Oulda must have had In
mind; a laughing, careless, even reckless
girl, with the Impudence born of long asso
ciation on even footing with men of the
roughest sort, and then tha awakening of
the finer feelings of maidenhood and the
realisation of her condition and a desire
to get away from' it, the ''change being
born of a warm true love for a man. It la
after thH awakening that Cigarette really
live and to this phase of the character
Miss Kennark very wisely devotes mora
care than to the merely spectacular fea
tures, although she doea not neglect these,
either. Her scene with the Bedoulna In
the Chelala gorge, and her mad ride up
the ride of the mountrln are given with all
the dash and Are of a heroine. But It was
her softer sc;nes that won her most ap
plause, that with Bertie Cecil In tha third
act being especially well done.
Mr. Bert Lytell has the role of Bertie
Cecil this season, and plays It with some
show of life, making It really human char
acter. H. Guy Woodward makes Rocking,
ham Just such a chap as he might have
been In the novel it ha had chosen to fol
low Cecil to Afrlea for enlistment In the
Chasseurs. Walter Marshall Is a splendid
Rake, Harry Long, another Omaha favorite,
has the villain role, that of Marquis de
Chateauroy, and doei It as he doea every
thing elss. In an artistic way. Nettle
Douglas aa Lady Venetla, and Mary Hill aa
Renea Baronl, the blind girl, are both well
cast. In general the support Is excellent
so that even tha minor scenes of the piece
are carried off with a anap and dash, and
the whole production la good.
The settings are the original, so that
eveiy detail la work 3d out with care, and
under the watchful direction of Mr. Long
tha realistlo features of tha pHce ara given
with proper effect. .
"Under Two Flags" will be the bill until

January issue of Outing la "Walking
Through Corea," which la the atory of a
tramp over the country with pen pictures
of the people and some excellent photo

tha most fascinating article In this num
ber la "Beating tha Wind on a Toboggan,"
which tells of the remarkable feata accom
plished at Davos, together with a doien
photographs taken especially for Outing
and illustrating the daring runs that are
taken down' tha mountain aide. Mr. Dunn,
In this number, beglna the first of his sr
tlcles on the recent attempt to ascend
Mount McKlnley. This is quite the most
extraordinary aeries of papers to have been
published, for besides the thrilling experi
ences in exploration, they tell of those hu
man experiences which are usually not act
down in print by explorers. Mr. Dunn'a
article la a human document frankly re
corded. An Important contribution to this
number Is "The Story of the Shotgun."

visited the different factories for the pur
pose of telling how the gun Is made from

Two very reasonable papers are on. "South

man and nature lover and traveler, and
"Fishing and Fishermen In Southern Cali
fornia," towards which at thin time of the

The February Delineator Is a magaxlne of
uncommon Interest and value. Its stories.
articles and pictures are excellent, and the
review of the fashions, including a letter
from Mrs. Osborn, thorough and enlighten
ing. More than sixty winter modes are

entitled "The Silver Boat," by Albert Blge
low Palnc; a strong love story from the

Agnes Surbrldge. The home life of Calve,
the most Interesting personality among the
favorites of the opera, la described In a
remarkably Illustrated article by Percy
Mitchell. A aerloua paper on "The Cultiva

will be generally enjoyed, and collectors of

"The Quest of Roxane," by Frances Rob

timely Information on a variety of topics.
One of the moat picturesque and readable
articles In tha Outlook'a magaslne number
for January Is that by Hamilton Wright
Mable on the "Chateaux of Touralne,"

to tha stay-at-home traveller the charm
and Impressivenesa of the famous Chateaux
of Tours, Blols, Chenonceaux and Axay-Ie-Rtdeau,
but calls up to the Imagination
tha historical associations with which these
places are replete. Another decidedly read
able article which deala with historical as
sociations In America is that by H. H.
Moore, entitled "The Puritan and the Cav
alier." This also la enlivened by many fine
photographa taken expressly for this pur
pose. Other notable features of this num
ber are personal sketches of Herbert
Spencer by George lies, and Mr. Rlls" fifth
chapter In his unconventional and often
highly amusing biography of the president,

The North American Review in Ita Jan

In several of which It deala, with Its ac

of that great philosopher.. Arnold White

Solve It." Horace White gives his opinion

Signs of Polluted BloocJ.
There is nothing so repulsive looking and disgusting as an old sore.
You worry over it till the brain grows weary and work with it until the
patience is exhausted, and the very sight of the old festering, sickly looking
place makes you irritable, despondent and desperate.
A chronic sore is the very best evidence that your blood is in an unhealthy
and impoverished condition, that your constitution is breaking down under
the effects of some serious disorder. The taking of strong medicines, like
mercury or potash, will sometimes so pollute and vitiate the blood and im
pair the general system that the merest scratch or bruise results in obstinate
non-healing sores of the most offensive character.
Often an inherited Uint breaks out in frightful eating sores upon the limbs
or face in old age or middle life. Whenever a sore refuses to heal the blood is
always at fault, and, while antiseptic washes, salves, soaps and powders can
do much to keep down the inflammation and cleanse the sore, it will never
heal permanently till the blood itself has been purified and the deadly genus
and poisons destroyed, and with S. S. S. this can be accomplished the polluted
oiood is punned and invigorated, and when rich,
pure blood is again circulating freely throughout
the body the flesh around the old sore begins to take
on a natural color, the discharge of matter ceases
and Uie tlace heals over.
S. S. S. is both a blood purifier and tonic that outs vour blood in order
and at the same time tones up the system and builds up the general health.
If you have a chronic sore write us and our physician will advise you
without charge. -

Mayor Moores has Issued Instructions to
Building Inspector Withnell and Fire Chief
Salter for a thorough Inspection of all
halls churches and buildings used for the
assemblage of people In the city. Tha scope
of the Inquiry will not be confined to, the
conditions that might be induced by Are,
but will Include the general safety of the
buildings, their construction and reasonable
capacity.
Inasmuch as the building Inspector Is
sick, the Inspection will not be insisted
upon until he recovers, 'and therefore will
hardly be Btarted until next week.
The mayor airected that an asbestos cur
tain be placed on the stage at the Krujc
theater, stipulating that this be dona by
Saturday. At this theater 126 seats have
been removed, enlarging the alalea and
making cross-aisles on the main floor and
balcony. At the Orpheum an asbestos lln
Ing has been placed In the calcium light
cabinet near tha entrance.
"This Is as good a time as any to have a
thorough Investigation made of dance halls,

City Engineer Rosewater declares that

It Is absurd to oxpect anything like a thor

'Tha charter and ordinances throw all

city engineer. "His force oonatsts of him
