TIIE 0MAI1A DAILY BEE: MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1901 AFFAIRS AT " SOUTH OMAHA Larga Amount Due on Bonds That Moat B Renewed. HOWE WOULD REFUND OTHER ISSUES Debit la On Funding Bonds Dated Oe token 1, Monrr on Ha ad in Take I p Butane of Debt. There will be due at the state fiscal agency In New York City October 1, the urn of Of this mount, $22,300 la due on funding bond dated October 1, lm. Theae bond will have to be re newed by another Issue, but money la on hand to take up the balance of the Indebt edness. City Treasurer Howe thinks while the 12,300 Issue is being refunded It would be money In the city treasury to refund other Issues bearing date of October 1. ISO. On this date, besides the bonds Issued, there was an Issue refunding $35,000 of gen eral Indebtedness bonds and an Issue of 112,009 Intersection paving bonds. Both of these Issues are drawing Interest at the rate of per cent. Treasurer Howe says as It Is now op tional with the city to take up these bonds ' It would be worth while trying to sell an entirely new Issue, the Interest to be not more than i per cent. All of these three Issues were optional after 1903. At the prices recently paid for Bouth Omaha gen eral Indebtedness bonds, the city officials do not think there will be any difficulty In refunding the securities at 5 per cent. The city has a general bonded debt of about lf8,000 and a valuation of nearly I19.000.fl00. Taxes are being paid promptly, and under these conditions It Is thought that bond buyers will be willing to accept new bonds at a lower rate of Interest. Thla matter la to be referred to the finance com mittee of the council Monday afternoon and possibly some steps may be taken at the meeting to be held Monday night to have the necessary ordinances drafted. Morley Still Held. Chief Brlggs Is still holding John Moiley, or Morley, at the city jail, awaiting the action of the county attorney. When ths chief returned from Kansas with Morley he intended taking him to the county Jail at once, but later Changed his mind 'and is holding the man until the county attorney files a complaint on Monday. In his state ments about the Mike Hart case, Morley becomes decidedly mixed, and the impres sion prevails that the prisoner should be taken before the insanity board to be ex amined before a complaint is filed against him. This may be done, but Chief Briggs says he has no Information on the subject, the prisoner being at the disposition of the county attorney. Mayor -Will Visit Fair.

Before the claimant re covered from these Injuries he was sent to bed with a case of appendicitis.

COME AS SPECIAL GUESTS OF SAMSON Fro Acts Will Bo Featnrw of tsyfc Street Fair Thla Tear, anal They Promise to Bo Warm Affairs. ' The exceptional number of free acts will make the street fair of this yr-ar different from any of those preceding. Otherwise It will be the same familiar t of tun and irtvollty. The whole scheme faings In suspense, pending the answer tf the Washington government In regarA to the coming of the Igerottos. Chairman Wllhe:m of the car nival committee Vopes permission may be gained, and all,- the Influence of Senator Millard and Congressman Hitchcock and of the prlvre cltlsens of Omaha having strength Ir, Washington Is being used to that end No reply has as yet been re ceived sfid no one here can say what the result -will be. If the carnivorous Filipinos are Secured the street fair will have the be: and most popular attraction ever bjooked. A free show will be given at least once every half hour, afternoon and evening, each dayof the carnival. At least that is the expressed Intention of the committee. Five free attractions have been booked so far and negotiation are on with other shows. The committee feels It can do no better than follow the example of Luna Park, which has been a startling Innova tion, In the number and quality of the th'Aiga to be seen without other cost than the small gate money. So, In the words en these gentlemen, there will b some thing doing for the crowd to see all the time. Flying; Trnpese Act. A flying trapese act is one of these free shows. A man and a woman will do the regulation circus double aerial work. Their apparatus will be rigged In a conspicuous place. A free dog show is another on the list of attractions booked. This act comes from St. Louis, and brings a company of sixteen dogs, said to be excellent canine actors. The regulation tight-rope stunt will come off every afternoon and even ing, the high wire being stretched across the midway. Another ut which probably will com Is a cycle whirl in which a strong man holds up the slate cage while a woman rides about Its perpendicular sur face. The fifth act secured is the Palaro brothers, coming acrobats who do some amusing stunts In a practical property cot tage. A fact worthy of note this year Is the engagement of all the acts for the en tire time of the carnival from the opening day, Wednesday, September 28. Last year several of the best things did not come until the last week. A novel feature will be a centrlflcal merry-go-round. This Is a( copy of an Inven tion by Hiram Maxim, first used In Eng land, The car are suspended by cables, and as the machine rotates they gradually swing outward until they stand out straight from their fastenings. It will come here from Electrlo park, Kansas City, and will be set up -where the as sociation's tennis courts are. Preliminary Work Prosrresses. Tho preliminary work on the fair grounds is well under way and a completion Is promised next week. The carnival space will be Identical with that of last year, except that the ground now occupied by the Young Men' Christian association as k tennis court will be included. The main entrance will be at Seventeenth and Doug las streets as usual and the other gate will be at Nineteenth and Farnam, with the small exits also a before. The ornamental gateways of last year will be used again, a they are as elaborate as they could well be made. - The Douglas county agricultural exhibit will be fine this year, as the season has been particularly good for the growing of prise fruit and vegetables. The manage ment of this department Is thinking of holding a large fine cattle show this year and will do so If sufficient ground can be provided. It will require the tennis ground for this purpose. The booths for the merchant exhibitors will be about the same in number a last year and in the same location. More of the retail dealers, however, have come to realise the value of the advertising and have taken space. The usual number of food venders have applied for concessions. Among them are more, church societies than ever before. The police regulations will be tho same as those of last year. Confetti may reign a usual, but dusters, brooms, 'wife beaters and other similar Im plements of torture will be officially barred. The grounds will be opened daily at 10 o'clock In the morning and will continue so until nearly midnight. Local musicians will furnish music for the show. PACKING PLANT IN PROSPECT T. W.

Such a drunk Is not a plain drunk, but one which makes the on looker bellevo that perhaps Munchausen waa not so Inventive after all. It happens at Olden avenue bridge, Newark, N. J., adjoining the brewery, every time the beer vats are cleaned and emptied Into the stream alongsldo. When tho foaming malt pours forth Into the water one may see a rush to the bar. It is Just like a beaming politician asking his fellow cltlsens to "have one." Pickerel, eels, perch and catfish mingle n the festivi ties, and the meaning of the old saying, "He drinks like a fish," becomes evident. The fish, It Is snld, leap out of the water, dart nl one another and throw themselves high and dry on tha stones st the water's edge. When one less bibulous than his fel lows starts to leavo, with the Idea that there will be trouble lq the family If he stay longer, his companions gather about him and coax him ' bank for "just one more." As their debauoh begins to assume Its second stage the - besotted fish drift slowly down the stream, quite regardless of th East Trenton small boy, who wndes out Into the stream and picks up the "plain drunks" In baskets. Shortly afterward they are slxzling over a kitchen fire, vic tims of their own conviviality. Resident of th brewery section of the city who have witnessed these "flh drunks" time and again say that the fish come down stream In schools Just before It Is t!m for the weekly vat cleaning, and upon reaching the Olden avenue bridge patiently ewalt developments and beer, New York Time.
