I0CNG WOMEN WANT A HOME

Ths Young Women'! Christian assqcla
Usn has approached Judge James Neville
with a proposition for one or two stories
for the association to be added to the con
templated building at Sixteenth and liar
nay streets. It Is understood, however,
thai the bulldera and the association com
mittee could not agree on the terma of
uch an agreement and that nothing will
come of the matter.
The association has been In need of laager
roam for a Jong time. It hae grown rap
Idly, and, beside thla, the present rooms
la the Paxton block are not particularly
veil suited for Ita purpose. A building
fund waa etarted a long time ago and has
grown aa well aa could be expected, and
the women are understood to have at their
command In addition several Inrge dona
tion. They have had the plans drawn
for a flve-atory building and at one time
practically had an option on a Harney
treat property. But the announcement
Of so many new store buildings haa made
It rather doubtful If additional places on
Harney street could be rented advantage
ualy for the present, and. In addition, the
fund had not grown sufficiently to allow
of the new home for some time to come.
The association management declined to
give any details, but It la understood the
idea 'was to make an arrangement with
Judge Neville by which the women should
build and coutrol one or two stories placed
above the three which are now planned for
the old church corner.
Owners of real estate on South Sixteenth
street' are anxious to have more than a
three-story building erected on this cor
ner, and several of them have been talk
ing 1 up a proposition for a number of
business men to unite In a pool which
shall build two additional stories on the
Neville structure, control and rent them for
a period of years, and then turn them
over to the owners of the real estate. No
sUch proposition, however, haa been made
to Mr. Neville, and he Is Inclined to think
It would not be satisfactory. He has not
definitely decided to limit the building' to
three stories, but whatever height Is put
up, he will do It himself. No leases for
store space or offices in the new building
have been made.
SCHOOL DISTRICT FINANCES
Secretary Burgess Calls Attention to
Soma Conditions the Board
Has Met.
OMAHA, May lfU To the Editor of The
Bee: In The Kvenlng Bee of May 17 ap
peared the following editorial comment!
Comparative expenditures of the school
board during the first ten months of the
fiscal year la02-iT8 and the first ten months
of the fiscal year 1903-1904 show an Increase
of more than $60,0(10 In the cost of school
government, although the Increase In the
payroll of the teachers haa been less than
lri.000, and the Increase In the payroll of
janitors has only been $1,100, while the
miscellaneous" expenses have Increased
by nearly 112,000.
In calling the attentlbn of the public to
thla $50,000 Increase over the previous year
you fall to state that $26,000 of this Increase
Is due to the construction of the new Mon
i mouth Park school building. No new school
buildings were constructed during the pre
vious year. That the fuel for the present
year has cost the board $4,036.04 more than
the previous year; that the board has paid
in taxes $4,464.67 during the present year
as against nothing paid during the previ
ous year; that an additional $2,600 haa been
placed In the bond redemption fund more
than waa placed during the previous year;
that $11,600.$ was paid by order of the
court on account of the McDonald Judg
ment, aa against nothing paid In the pre
vious year, Thla amount appears in the
secretary's statement - as "miscellaneous
expenses."
Add to these Items $7,100, whleh you have
mentioned as the Increase In teachers' and
janitors' salaries, and you have a total of
$54,681.63.
I have never been able to discover that
you have ever called the attention of the
publlo. In discussing school board finances,
to the fact that the Board of Education
has now In ths bond redemption fund $211,
(11.50 with which to redeem the school dis
trict bonds due In 1908 and 191&- This Is
the amount which the law states shall ba
In the bond redemption fund. I believe
that I am correct In saying that the school
district of Omaha la the only legislative
body In the county of Douglas that has
strictly complied with the statutes In re
gard to 1U sinking fund. I think the
publlo should know that the statute re
quires that nearly $100,000 shall be set aside
during each year for the creation of a
sinking fund and the payment of Interest
on the bonded Indebtedness that haa been
incurred by the action of the people them
selves in voting bonds for the purchase of
school sites and the erection of school
buildings. J. F. BUROES8,
Secretary Board of Education.

ATTEMPT ATSUICIDE FOILED
Plans of Yoans Man Fall, Err after
He Writes Last Letter to
Mother.
According to the story of Otto Bemford,
arrested at the Union station Tuesday
evening and the charge of vagrancy placed
against him at the city jail, he has been
the victim of an unkind fate for sometime,
so he resolved on self-destruction. The
young man was hanging around the sta
tion in a manner as to arouse suspicion
when arrested, and when searched at the
police station several farewell letters were
found in his pockets. Two of the letters
were addressed to his mother and sweet
heart and appeared to have been written
but a short time before the arrest The
letter written by Bemford to his mother
reads:
My dear mother: When this my last
missive reaches you 1 shall have Dassed
into that most eternal beyond where 1 ahull
live in hopes of meeting you attain. My
many debts and other troubles, which are
numerous, have led me to commit this rash
act. Oood by to all those who are dear
to me. I will remain In death as I was In
Ufa, your loving son. Otto.
With Bemford, waa arrested another
young man who gave the name of Cleve
land Kemp. He waa arrested several weeks
ago In a resort and when searched had a
"hold-out" card apparatus in his sleeve.
For this charge he was fined GO and coats.
He Is now being held on a vagrancy charge.
