TITE OMAITA DAILY HER: THURSDAY, FETlRFAItY 1001. CITY COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS V tgbH Ordered foT Outlying Districts b; 1 Almost Uotoimona Vote. TWENTY-TWO NEW ARC LAMPS TO SHINE CMdllne I, labia Alone Oaa Main to fclve W&r to Was end All Arc f Hare WtUbuh , J Burners. Twenty-two now electric street lamps were ordered by the council Tuesday night. Nineteen are to be paid for by the city, entailing- an annual cost of 11,796.50 and three are to be billed against the Belt Line railway, because they are at grade cross Ings. The announced Increase In gas lamps was effected by the adoption of a resolution directing that all gasoline lamps on gas mains be discontinued and gas lamps with WelHbach burners be substituted. Th changes are so many that the councllmen thought It advisable to handle the matter In this manner. About 150 lights will be changed from oil. President Zlmman voted against all the electric light Installations with the excep tion of those to be made by the Belt Line and Councilman O'Brien changed his po sition with regard to seven lights, declar ing at this Juncture that he thought the city would be spending too much money In a way not needed. Councllmen Hunting ton and Dyball secured most of the new lights for their wards, Evans and Back coming In for a few apiece and Hoye for two. It was explained that one of the latter at Fourteenth and Castellnr streets will replace two gas lamps, but these were not ordered discontinued. Where the Lights Will Go. The locations of the new aro lights are to be as follows: On Leavenworth at Thirty-first, Thirty-third, Thirty-fifth, Thirty-sixth, and Thirty-eighth avenue, Forty-second, Forty-fourth and Forty-sixth streets; Thirty-ninth and Chicago, Forty first avenue and Davenport, Twenty-sixth and Hickory, Thirteenth and Mason, Thir tieth and Corby, Thirty-fourth avenue and Corby, Thirty-fifth and Ohio and on Thirty-third between Parker and Maple. It Is planned to make the Belt Line main tain lamps at Fortieth and Leavenworth, Forty-eighth and Leavenworth and Four teenth and California, at grade crossings, the presumption being that a charter pro vision will warrant It. Ous Inspector Lynch was directed, with advice of the councllmen, to replace the old style gasoline lamps with the new Welsbach burners, for which a contract was made . recently. Pavlas; Specifications Go Over. Owing to the fact that Building Inspector Wlthnell Is sick the Board of Public Works did not act upon the paving specifications prepared by Engineer Rosewater yesterday afternoon, and a recess until Friday after noon at 8 o'clock was taken by the coun cil.

One of the most Important offices In the gift of the people In South Omaha Is a membership on the Board of Education. At the republican convention two promi nent men were selected for. positions on the board. J. C. Knight, the nominee from the southern part of the city, has served a term on the board and no complaint can be made about any of his actions as far as known. C. M. Rich, the other nominee, has served In a number of positions and has always proven faithful to his trust. Both Mr. Knight and Mr. 'Rich were n dorsed by the Taxpayers' league, and It was at the solicitation of the league that these men were nominated. It is stated In all quarters that there seems to be no doubt about the election of these two men. Democrats are reported as saying that they will have to hunt around a long time before they will find two men In the democratic party as strong es Knight and Rich. When the election Is over the Board of Education will meet to reorganize. Out of the number on the board now only three old timers will hold over. They are Lav erty, Morrill and Bock. Both Laverty and Morrill are republicans, while Bock Is a democrat. By electing Rich and Knight the board will be made up of representative citizens ard will be a credit to the school district of South Omaha. Both Morrill and Laverty have already gone to work in the Interest of these two republican candidates and the expectation now is that they will be elected by good majorities. Pavlnu- Railroad Avenoe. There seemed to be a general feeling of relief yesterday among business men and taxpayers that the contract had finally been let for the paving of Rallrond avenue. For years, In fact ever since the city was Incorporated, this has been the worst road way leading to the country. Efforts have been made time and again to secure funds for the grading, paving and curbing of this road from CJ street south to the county line. Sufficient funds could not be raised on ac count of the fact that abutting property owners were afraid of too heavy a tax, with no particular benefit accruing. Since the law has been changed and the taxpay ers at large stand two-thirds of the ex pense and the property owners one-third, there has been no remonstrance. City Engineer Beal says that under the specifications the pavement of vitrified brick must be laid on a base of five inches of Portland cement. On top of this comes two and one-balf Inches of sand. Then the brick. Each of the paving blocks weighs nine and one-half pounds. With a good curbstone the city engineer thinks that this pavement will last for years. It Is understood that the contracts for this work will be made up as soon as possible, and when signed the contractor can go ahead and get busy as soon as the weather will permit. Fresh Candidates Coming Vp. Every day "sees new candidates for city offices springing up in the democratic ranks. Four candidates for mayor are In the field and as many' If not more for city clerk. As for members of the council there seems to be no end to the number who are making public and private announcements. Old-time democrats say that when primary day comes around wlljv.its. Crawford county system' of voting "fflefS will be mo end of trouble and hustling. With Ensor and Parkhtirst out of the mayoralty con test there will be only tnree prominent candidates to be considered. These are Shrlglcy, Hunt and Hoctor. I .a) Ins; Permanent Walks. George Parks, who has secured the con tract for the laying of permanent side walks, said yesterday that he would start work J list as soon as he could. He now has here a quantity of brick which has passed Inspection and Is represented to be the best sidewalk brick made. The city clerk has been directed by the council to send a notice to Mr. Parks designating the walks to be laid. Only walks where prop erty owners have declined to comply with the city ordinances will be laid by the contractor. The city gives each property owner thirty days' notice to lay a perma nent walk. If the walk Is not completed in this time the contractor will proceed with the work. All of the walks laid under this ordinance will be at grade and will be Inspected by the city engineer before an estimate is allowed. Lent (Vnmnrei Today. At. St. Martin's Episcopal church this morning the first Inten services will be held at 8 a. m. with morning prayer. There will be another service at 8 a. m.

He asserted that he had directed the sur rintendent of the division to place day watchman and also a night watch man at this crossing. This order will. It Is supposed, go Into effect at once. In case the watchmen are placed as per the mes sage there will be no necessity for the city to install watchmen at this crossing and then "be compelled to sue the railroad company, as has been the rase In the Rock Inland, where the company refused to sub mit to the orders of the mayor and council We Have Been Trusted. with forty thousand new prescriptions be sides the refills and have filled them with out an error or a complaint.

Judge Munger yesterdny handed down his decision In the matter of seven barrels of whisky which had been seized by the gov ernment from Walter Molse & Co. for the reason that the proper marks and stamps required by the revenue laws of the United States had not been placed on the pack ages showing the true contents of the bar. rels or packages. The liquor was seized by the revenue authorities and forfeited to the government. To this action the Molse company has Interposed a demurrer and this demurrer Judge Munger has overruled. The demurrer Is taken on the ground as to whether or not the Information Is suf ficient to charge an offense. The court holds that If marks and stamps on barrels and packages were for a less number of gal lons than were actually contained In the packages It would be In violation of the revenue laws and would subject the liquors to forfeit. If the stamps Indicated a greater quantity than was actually. In the pack ages the government .would not be de frauded and could not forfeit the contents. The court Is, however, of the opinion that the information Is sufficient as against a general demurrer, and. for this reason the demurrer Is overruled. The claimants, however, are permitted to file a motion re quiring the government to state more spe cifically In what respect the marks and tamps did not show the true number of gallons by stating whether the marks and stamps showed a less quantity than the barrels contained or a greater quantity. When such amendment Is made it may be that a general demurrer would dispose of the case. Claimants are given ten days to answer. Your throat troubles you. Flso's Cure will stop it and cure it.

By Its action Tuesday night the council frowned officially on any plan to reduce street car fares. Some weeks ago a com munication was received from the Prospect Hill Improvement rlub asking that an ordi nance be passed compelling the street rail way company to sell half fare tickets to school children and to place commutation books, giving six rides for a quarter or twenty-eight for a dollar, at the disposal of the patrons of the road. The petition went to the committee on railways and Councllmen Evans and Scroeder brought n a report recommending that the request be filed "temporarily." Huntington says he declined to sign the report, but council adopted It with a broad grin. WEIGHT 11 ON YOUR MAC There's nothing lacking; from tho argument that you are Buffering from a disorder you don't understand. The weight of the argument ia there pressing on your stomach depressing your whole spirit and being. It makes you a Stomach Coward. In trying to relieve you, many friends and some doctors are proving their stomach ignorance. You must learn this: THERE ARE A LOT OF NERVES GOVERNING THE GASTRIC AND DIGESTIVE APPARATUS OF YOUR STOMACH. Your sluggish bowels get them out of order. The weight on Your Stomach la a Ner vous Disorder. The other symptoms you know dyspepsia, sleeplessncs, dizziness, palpitation, fits of 44 blues " and general nervous depression. You get dizzy and walk about in dreadful uncertainty. 1 You have got to fix up those stomach nerves before you can lift the 'weight. Dr. Greene's Nervura Restores The Normal Stomach Condition When you take a tablespoonful of Dr. Greene's Nervura directly before a meal, and another directly after the meal, that weight docs not come down on your stomach. In two days' time the spectre of a big dinner vanishes. You don't have to remain a 6lave to your stomach or to medicine. Dr. Greene's Nervura attends to the stomach, where the real distress and the real danger lie. It may require a few days to get the stomach exactly toned, but the relief is marked from the first day. Dr. Greene's Nervura is, without any question, the very finest remedy for bad digestion and for weakened stomachs that the world has ever known. It is positively necessary to mend the nervous weakness of the stomach to regulate its action and re-e)tAbtii.h its natural functions. The stom ach secretions have been interfered with. Dr. Greene's NervuT will do this where no other remedy will have the desired effect. If you are constipated, and most stomach suffer ers are, don't take tho first cathartic that comes along, because the means you are employing to make your bowels act is one of the things that is ruining your stomach and your digestion. Take Dr. Greene's Nervura before and after your meals,, and write to Dr. Greene about your condition, especially about your constipation. You will get Dr. Greene's advice free, and it will be the advice which exactly fits your case. Doctors usually make light of constipation, and the reason none of them cures stomach trouble permanently is that they don't know how to make your bowels perform tln ir regular function with out upeotting the stomach. Write or call on Dr. Greene, 101 Fifth Avenuo, New York, for tho advice that is known to effect a cure in all these obstinate and chronic cases. Tho person who begins to-day to take Dr. Greene's Nervura for stomach trouble, and will tako a little liefore and a littlo after each meal, will be surprised to find his very first meal will bo digested with perfect comfort, and after two or three days he will become an ardent advo cate of Dr. Greene's Nervura, which has cured its thousands and tens of thousands, and stands to-day the conqueror of stomach troubles of every form. It takes away that awful weight, and it does it at once. It attacks every nervous disease, first through tho stomach nerves. Your Druggist recommends and sells Or. Greene's Nervuni.

Rallrocds from Omaha to the east are making every effort to get their eastern connections to help them out In making a lower rate on grain from the Missouri river to eastern seaboard points. It Is believed the efforts ultimately will meet with suc cess. In case the eastern lines take a hand In the rato war It will necessitate a reduction In the seaboard rate east of Chicago of 11 cents per hundred. The rate now Is 18 cents and It will have to be reduced to 7 cents In order to make the through rate from the Missouri river to the seaboard 15 cents to meet ths rate made from Kan sas City and St, Joseph via St. Louis to Baltimore and Norfolk by the Burlington and Its eastern connections. The Chicago rate from the Missouri river Is now 8 cents and the rate from Chicago to tidewater Is 18 cents, making a through rate under the present tariff of 26 cents, or Just 11 cents higher than the Burlington rate from Kan sas City and St. Joseph. It Is said a por tion of the export business can be obtained from the Missouri river with a J-cent differ ential In effect between the northern and southern ports, consequently It may be de cided to cut the rate but 8 cents. This would make an export rate of 18 cents from this city as against a rate of 15 cents from the 1 Kansas City. A freight official or the Burlington states that the eastern connections of that line refuse to allow the export rate of IS cents to apply from any point north of St. Joseph, and as the difference in favor of the lower Missouri river markets Is cents per 100, it Is Impossible for the Burlington to assume this 6 cants and thus equalize the rates between the southern markets yid Omaha, as the present rate of the Burlington from this city to St Louis Is nly 6 cents, and In case that line at tempted to make up the difference In the rate It would leaVe it In the position of paying 1 cent per 100 to ths shipper for sending his grain over the Burlington road, and the payment of this amount to tho shipper, besides the hauling of the grain, seems like too much of a concession to make for the benefit of the Omaha market.
