Builders and dsalers In building material
are exceedingly busy these days. Those
who handle building material say that they
have about all they can de to fill orders
and that their teams are kept on the go
trom morning until night. A dealer In ma
terial said last night; "There Is more go
ing on In a small way In the matter of re
pairs than for a number of years. It seems
as If every one was fixing up a little.
Then there Is the permanent sidewalk craze.
Property ownors In all portions of the city
are hurrying to get permanent walks laid.
Brick and oement are the favorite walks,
very little natural stone being used."
There has been a scarcity of building
brick and this has held back some of the
work, but now that brlok Is coming In
there la a big demand for lime, sand, etc
large number of small cottages are being
built all over the city, as well as a num
ber of substantial brlok structures. The
contract has been let fo the Riches $11,000
block oa Twenty-fourth street near O and
excavating for the Bergqulat block at
fwenty-fourth and ! streets Is nearly com
pleted. The buildings being erected at
Twenty-sixth and O streets are progressing
well and will doubtlera be completed by
the time the viaduct Is open.
With the building of the O street viaduct
and the proposed Burlington viaduct at
Thirty-alxth street, the paving of Railroad
avenue, O street and Missouri avenue there
promises to be j.lenty of work in South
Omaha this summer. Merchants look for a
picking up in trade after July 4.
The laying of double street car tracks
along Missouri avenue and South Twenty
fourth street and Railroad avenue to the
county line will also give employment to a
large number of men.
Then there la the library building and
the new high school building. Delay In

Testerday the finishing touohes were placed
on. the tile roofing at the library. Work on
the Interior of this building Is progressing
slowly, but Is being done in a very satis
factory manner.
i On both of these buildings all the men
that can be ' handled to advantage are
given work.
The building of the mammoth smokestack
at Armour's will give employment to quite
a number of men, while the repairs now
going on at Cudahy's and the Omaha pack

The Bella of Rlehmoad" at the Boyd.
Last evening the Ferris StocK company
put on for the last half of ths current week
one of Its last season's successes, ."The
Belle of Richmond." This Is a very pretty
play of life in the south in the present day,
although It might easily be located, save
for the scenlo effects. In any community.
The southern atmosphere Jends sn inde
scribable beauty to tne settings, though,
and there. is a pecull.irly chivalrous alti
tude of the men toward the women and to
ward each other that Is gained more In
connection with the southern charscter
than elsewhere. This is really the life of
the play, and la made much of, both in ths
setting and the acting of the piece.
Mr. H. M. Carpenter, the new leading
man of the company, made his first ap
pearance last night and made a decidedly
good impression. He has a peculiar rols In

msds a good Impression in his part' Mr.

ths company, appeared as Charles Lee, and
had some very good scenea Mr. Ray

Miss Pavey, Miss Hill and Miss Davis
were charming as ths three southern girls
around whom -the love scenes In the play
revolve, and Miss Carmontelle showed her
adaptability by blacking np and making a
capital Mos Moss, the old negro servant
of the Mason family. A large audience saw
ths play last night and enjoyed It greatly,
being very liberal with Its applause. Tho
bill will continue until after tho matinee on

CHANCE FOR CITY COUNCIL
Taxpayer taaseets that North Six
taeath Street Bo Glvea Boas
Atteatlosu
OMAHA. June S.-To the Editor ef Ths
Bee: In Wednesday evening's Bee of June
C there was an article entitled. "Plan to
Park Joslyn Place." Has - not our city
enough boulevards without creating mors?
Are not the taxpayers taxed, enough? They
have all they can do; a great many paying
monthly on their homes, ana their regular
taxes at a robber's rate this year, wlthost
mors boulevards. It is only people of
mesne who can enjoy them and drive
through them, while tho poor ones are
taxed for them. And thero Is one thing I
never could see the Justice of: that la peo-
pis living on boulevards are exempt from
paying paving or special taxes or for
sprinkling, while their neighbors for so
many blocks, north, soutn, sast and, west,
are taxed for boulevards and have not 1
cent's worth of benefit from them. Would
It not be well If our city fathers planned
to have North Sixteenth street paved with
some suitable and lasting paving material?
Why not compel the property owners on
Sixteenth street to fix It?
When a poor man owns a lot and paving
Is ordered he is not asked If he wants It
done. Sixteenth street Is a blot snd a dis
grace to Omaha government. The council
had better let spits work alone and turn
Its attention to something better and
nobler.
On lower Farnam street salt was wsated
ten barrels of It-end how did ths weeds
hurt any one? Money squandered tor
nothing. Lota of tax money coming In, so
it can bs salted down on Farnam street
But there can be breakdowns and break
bones on North Sixteenth street in the
boles; it does not matter. Sixteenth street
can be compared to a deserted village, or
better still, ths "sand hills." Let some of
our lawmakers and rulers of Omaha walk
on North Sixteenth street; go north as far
as Cuming on a windy day, and they will
think they are In the "bad lands and sand
hills." If only In the moving pictures at
ths St Louts exposition there could be
shown North Sixteenth street the holes,
little boys playing with boats in them here
end there, a dog rolling in and trying to
swim or when the dust Is blowing. Thers
has been no sprinkling all summer on the
street only when the good Lord above
sends a rain; and how good It always feols
to have the dust settled. And it hurts all
ths dealers, as there Is no driving, only In
cases of necessity, such ss the ice and milk
men, and they have to drive on ths tracks.
What is Omaha coming td? Have they
no regard for thoss doing business on Six
teenth street? Have the tenants of stores,
whd pay their rent nothing no business
going on at all? How can they meet their
expenses unless the street Is paved prop
erly, so people can drive on It and do busi
ness and earn bread and butter? It is dis
couraging. If a petition was handed around
all doing business on North Sixteenth
street would surely sign It It Is sn out
rags on all of them. Will not you please
help all you can with your valuable paper
toward ths redemption of Sixteenth street
and you will confer a great fevor on ths
residents there? a TAXPAYER.
hole in the bank's reserve fund, while the
hole had been growing deeper and broader.
In his confession of ths shortage Colonel
Plain attributed hjp downfall to unfor
tunate speculation. His trouble began, be
said, seven years ago. The first money he
took was to pay for land at Sterling, Colo.
Three years ago his speculations began.
He lost tlO.000 in a oorn deal. This was
followed by a loss of 818,000 In the North
ern Pacific corner. Speculation In the
United States Steel stock, he sal, was his
final undoing. "Steel looked like a good
thing," be said. "I bought It at 40 cents.
It went down to 11. I guess I lost 830,000

COLORADO MINE SHUT DOWN
Directors of Smaggler.Valoa Mlno Say
that There Is a Paaclty of
Good Mesu
TELLURIDE, Colo., July L The Smug-gler-Unlon
mines, employing 200 men, were
closed down today and the company's mill
will be closed as soon us the ore on hand
Is disposed of. It Is rumored that opera
tions at several other mines will cease in
a few days. The reason for closing down
has not been made public
Bulkley Wells, a manager of the Smuggler-Union,
gave out tho following state
ment tonigbt: "
By order of the directors, operations of
the Smuggler property will be discon
tinued July- 1. This action is mads neces
sary by the Inability of the management
to procure a sufficient force of thoroughly
competent miners to man ths mines fully.
The fear of a repetition of the riots and
murderous assaults upon nonunion men
perpertrated by members of the local
union during the past three years and ths
dread inspired by such dastardly crimes as
the explosion at ths Vindicator mine and at
Independence station in the Cripple Creels
district hrfve suffloed to deter from return
Ing to the Telluride district most of tho
miners who were formerly here employed
and new men from entering the district-
Prior to the developments In Colorado of
miners of the type fostered by the Western
federation of Miners, murderous attacks
and explosions had no place In the mine
industry of the state. And It la a fact that
in every Instance nonunion men have been
the only sufferers. As far as the Tellurite
district is concerned the struggle against
the rule or ruin policy of the western Fed
eration of Mlnera has been won.
' It only remains for the people to de
clare, at the election that the principle of
socialism, which means anarchy, shall no
longer attempt jjaralyslng the Industries
of the state and That the essentially Amer
ican right of a man to work when, where
and for what wages bo will, shall not bo
denied him by any labor organisation.
If the people so record themselves, tho
Smuggler-Union will resume operation.
If tboy do not, the Smuggler-Union w!4
remain closed indefinitely.
