Mr. Frank Mur phy, and in his untimely loss we mourn an officer of eminent ability, an associate of I sterling qualities of heart and mind and a ' friend whose place cannot be filled; there- lore be it Resolved, By the board of directors of fhe Omaha & Council Bluffs Street Hallway company, that by the death of our presi dent we have sustained the loss of an officer whose great ability has alw.iys been exerted for the best Interests of this corpo ration and has been the most potent factor In its past history.

Frank Murphy, president of the Merchants National bank and an ex presldent of this association: be It Resolved, That we recognize In the death of Mr. Murphy a personal loss to each one of us and to the business Interests of the city of Omaha a loss so great that It can scarcely be expressed by words. Mr. Murphy has been one of the most aggressive and progressive figures In our business life for years which will almost number our city's existence. He was a leader at all times In every pubMc movement, more bv the admitted great force of his character than by any effort or desire on his own part. So modest and unassuming wns he In every action that only those Intimately connected with him fully realized his actual power and Influence. Few men have lived In Omaha whose opinion upon all matters or puvlle lnte-e -t was so much sought after and so highly valued. He exemplified In hU life the attributes of our bet cl'lzenwhln and the character of a perfect gentleman.

The death blow to boxing In Chicago was administered today by Mayor Carter "H. Harrison. To each club that has been conducting boxing con tests of any kind, and to Chief of Police O'Neill, for enforcement. Mayor Harrison has sent copies of an opinion by Corpora tion Counsel Edgar B. Tolman, which will compel even the Chicago Athletic associa tion to discontinue its exhibitions. The corporation counsel was asked some time ago by the mayor for an opinion on the law governing boxing In Chicago and the answer received today carried the law to an extent that even Mr. Harrison ex pressed surprise. Not only does the cor poration counsel maintain that prizefighting anywhere within the state Is a felony and that witnesses are gujlty of misdemeanor, but he shows that by law, where the ela tion of battle and the exaltation of victory are th" oniy inducements for the boxers to perform before the public, Btich exhibitions are Illegal, where the public Is Invited to attend, either by- paying a fee or entering free of price. Mayor Harrison sftld tonight: "I never realized to what lengths the law goes against boxing until I received the opinion of the law department today. I have sent copies of the opinion to all clubs which have been conducting boxing exhibitions and have ordered the police to carry out the law. No favors will be shown to any of the clubs, no matter whut the nature of the organization rnsv be. The opinion will be enforced as to all." . - i 1 .1,1 WITH THE OWLERS.

BARODA DIAMOND CO., I0 South 19th St. Ogou vsutiigs until Christmas, N AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA Talk of Bojiig Old High 8chool Building for City HtlL STRUCTURE WOULD NEED REMODELING Mayor Kontsky and Members of the City Cnnnell Are Said to Look with nisfarop on the Proposal. The old-time suggestion about the city purchasing the present high school build ing for city hall purposes has been brought up again now that bonds are for sale for the purchase of a site for a city building. This plan Is an old one and has been ad vocated time and again, but Mayor Kout sky and members of the council do not think much of the project. In looking over the school laws it Is found that the Board of Education may sell prop-rty by a three-fourths vote of the members, but the question Is whether the city wants to bay the property. Should the building and ground where the present high school Is located be pur chased It would take quite a sum of money to put the building In shape for use. In the first place, the tower and top story would have to be torn down and there would be an Immense amount of work needed to make the building suitable for city hall purposes. And even at that the city would not have much of a build ing. There la property near the high school building that can be secured If so desired for city hall purposes In case bonds tor the building are sold. Should the proposed sale be made to the city It would cost at least $15,000 to remodel the present building and put It In shape for city hall purposes. Japs Will Work. The talk In local labor circles about having the Japanese now employed at the plants removed will not avail, as tho packers will continue to employ the Japs. Only recently the Japanese employed at the packing houses secured control of tho old Haskell hotel and have moved Into It with the Intention of remaining here. Superintendent Shcehy of the Cudahy Pack ing company says that the Japs are do!niT good work and that they mind their ow business and are not interested In loca affairs, so he proposes to keep them In his employ. There Is another bunch of Jap employed at the Omaha hou.e and the report Is out that these will re main notwithstanding protests from cer tain quarters. City Leases Ground. A contract was entered Into yesterday be tween the city of South Omaha and the Union Stock Yards company for the lenso of two lots on West L street. This lease runs for a period of ten years and car rles an annual rental of 1100 a year. In vhe first place the lots were bought by the city years ago for 1100. Now the city through the finance committee, entered Into a lease which will pay for the lots In one year and leave quite a sum to the credit of the general fund at the end of ten years. Mayor Kontaky Speaka. Yesterday afternoon Mayor Koutsky said that It did not matter to him whether the stock yards kept open on December 26 or not, but that the city offices would be closed on that date. The banks In South Omaha will be closed on the date noted, even If the yards do keep cp?n. Tha change In plans about keeping the yards open seems to ha,ve caused considerable discus sion, but as other yards will be open for business the South Omaha yards will fol low suit. Magic City Gossip. H. C. Carr of Chicago was a business rlsitor at the stock yards yesterday. Mrs. John Brlggs has gone to Denver to upend a coupie oi weeks wlln rrlendB.
