LOTS NEAR ELEVATOR Off THE MARKET peelal Coaaell (ommltIM Krrnm aneade Coatrartlng (or Sfwtr Flaas at Cast of Flfteea Haadred Dollars. 81nce the announcement has been made that a large irraln elevator la to be erected on property belonging to the Union Stock: Tarda company on trackage l.MO feet north of the L. -Ureet viaduct, there ha been many Inquiries for land In that vicinity. Testerday afternoon A. C. Kennedy, 'as sistant secretary of the South Omaha Land company, sent notices to a Dumber of real estate agents In South Omaha stating that he had been instructed by P. E. Her to withdraw from the market all of the unsold lots belonging to the company lo cated between Twenty-fourth street and the railroad tracks. It Is supposed In real estate circles here that this withdrawal of land from the mar ket Is an evidence that there is a possibility of more Industries coming to South Omaha. There was some talk on the streets yesterday about a flour mill to be erected on the property Just west of where the I'pdlke elevator la to be constructed. This land adjoining the elevator rroperty Is now occupied by a lumber concern and the lease on the ground does not expire for some months yet. South Omaha people are Jubilant over the prospects for an In crease In .business her and are anxious to see some start ma do towards the Im prove me n ts that are being talked of. With the . constant demand for more trackage it, Is not Improbable that plans made a couple of years ago for utilizing the J street draw will be revived and this little valley be used before many months for trackage purposes.

Mr. Dodge's purpose In coming before the mem bers of the council was to show the ef fects of cutting a proposed street through the tract, stating that the street would render practically useless a portion of the property, which has been platted with a view of settlement by home owners. The councllmen are going to look over the ground and take such action as Is deemed best when Mayor Moores returns to the cm-. ' ' . .. ' , .' A representative from George & Co. also came before the general committee and urged the completion of the Improvements begun by the street commissioner 00 Seward street, from Eighth to Eleventh. This street is said to be nearly Impassable at times. This matter .will be. further con sidered at the regular meeting of toe coun cil this evening. .' . 1 .1 Isaac Levy explained the dilemma he Is In at Capitol avenue, betweenXfwenty-elghth and Thirtieth streets, In the matter of sewer connections. The city engineer showed that the sewer situation in that district is In a peculiar condition, In that a large number of the property owners some years ago. before the present engineering ad ministration, laid private sewer lines, thus making Levy at this time without regular service. .

It was not an affectionate greeting, that between Mrs. Mary Wolfe and her 16-year old daughter, Freda, In the matron's de partment at the city Jail yesterday. The girl was arrested 8unday evening at the resort of Kate Beardsley, 806 Dodge street, by officers Baldwin and Boyle. Miss Wolfe has been placed In the Home of the Good Shepherd by Police Matron Anderson. "Why, mother, you knew I was at the 'Yellow Front' at South Omaha and even called to see me several times," was the girl's reply to her mother when questioned as to the mother's knowledge of the daugh ter's whereabouts. An Investigation by the police authorities revealed the apparent negligence on the part of Mrs. Wolfe to check the girl's downward career when she even knew the young woman was a habitue of disorderly houses. When questioned regarding her solicitude for the daughter Mrs. Wolfe said she called a number of times at the two re sorts In South Omaha, where Miss Wolfe was an Inmate, but was unable to find the girl In at the times she called. "On one occasion when I called the keeper of the house told me my daughter wss there, but owing to her age was merely 'occupying a room' at the place," said Mrs. Wolfe. The girl says she started her reckless life over a year ago, when she was 15 years of age. The au thorities are outspoken In their condemna tion of the mother's neglect either to place the girl In better surroundings or file a complaint of Incorrigibility against her. Jolna a Depraved Woman. The girl says Kate Beardsley called on her at South Omaha six weeks ago and Induced her to come to Omaha and live at 8"8 Dodge street. The Beardsley woman Is known to the police as "Irish Kate" and Is said to bs one of the most de praved characters In the proscribed dis trict. She Is addicted to cocoalne and other drugs and her resort Is said to be the rendezvous of all nationalities and colors of people. The Beardsley woman was sentenced to thirty days In the county Jail by Police Judge Berks, Miss Wolfe is the youngest of twelve children, seven of whom are alive. Her mother does general work at the Presby terian hospital. The father is dead. When the mother called at the matron's department in response to a call from the police station, she kissed her daughter and asked how she came to be In the matron's charge. The girl reciprocated the greeting In a listless maner and said In a matter-of-fact way that she had been taken In custody by policemen. Announcements of the Theaters. This evening James J. Jeffries, champion of the world, will be seen at the Boyd theater In the role of Davy Crockett, hero of the famous pIay of border life, written by Frank Mayo and by him mode familiar to all lovers of the genuine in drama.

The regular rou tine business occupied the early part of the session, two new members being re ported as having qualified since the last meeting and another new name proposed for membership. The resignation of Mrs. B. F. Weaver, chairman of the member ship committee, was announced, Mrs. Weaver resigning because of removal from the city. The civic committee, to whom the club referred the letter written to Governor Mickey by Edward Rosewater, advocating a better enforcement of the Slocum law and making some other suggestions con cerning the granting of licenses to sa loons, and that the club was asked to endorse, reported that they endorsed Mr. Ronewater's recommendations so far as they pertained to the enforcement of the Slocumb law and, further, that, as the club had adjourned for the holidays and the committee was un able to report before, and as the licenses for this yesr have already been granted, the committee suggested that an effort be made for the strict enforcement of the Slocumb law In all saloons to which licenses had been granted. The club en dorsed the report of the committee. The civil service reform committee, upon recommendation of the Visiting Nurses' as sociation through experience among the city and county poor sick, recommended that the club petition the county commis sioners to retain Dr. Lee, the rresent county physician. In that position and to make It plain that the request was made. through no political Inclination, but because of Dr. Lee's personal fitness for the office and the assistance he has rendered through his acquaintance with the particular needs of those whom It Is desired to reach. The president and recording secretary of the club and the chairman of the committee were appointed to visit the county com missioners at today's meeting and make their request. After some discussion It wus de cided to frame the photographs of all of the presidents of the club and hang them upon the walls of the club rooms. The remainder of the afternoon was given over to the presentation and discussion of the new women's property rights bill being prepared by Hon. D. L. Johnson under di rection of the women's organizations of the state, to be presented to the present legis lature. Mr. Johnson read four sets of changes In the present bill, recommended by the various women. The new bills retain as far as possible all of the good points of the present law and the suggested changes are now being considered by a committee of women who will decide what is most desirable to put Into the new bill. As the great proportion of the estates In Kebroska that are left without will amount to less than $10,000 the following proposition for the descent of real estate and such property not disposed of by will seemed to be most acceptable to the women. In the first case If the estate does not exceed $10,000 and after all debts are paid. If there be a surviving spouse, whether It be the husband or the wife, and one child or the lawful Issue of that child, the estate Is divided equally between the surviving spouse and the child or Its issue. In the second case, tho. estate not ex ceeding $10,000 and after all debts are paid, if there be more than one child, the sur viving spouse gets one-third and the re maining two-thirds Is divided among the children or their lawful issue. In the third case, the estate not exceed ing $10,000 and after all debts are paid, If there are no children, the surviving spouse gets the entire estate. In the fourth case, if there are no chil dren and the estate exceeds $lu,000, after all debts are paid, the surviving spouse In herits the $10,000 and one-half of the property In excess of that amount. The other half of the property In excess of $10, 000 Is given first to the parents of the deceased. If there are no parents It goes next to the brothers and sisters of the deceased and If there are no faiher, mother, brothers or sisters, then It goes to the sur viving spouse In fee simple. Mrs. George Damon and Mrs. John Austin will entertain the members of MuSigma Woman's Club Wednesday, in honor of Mrs. C. W. Damon, of Mason City, la., a former member. The women who expect to take part in the Enchanted Swan cantata are requested to meet Friday morning, January 13, at 9:30 o'clock, at the First Congregational church, as there Is Important business to be attended to.

Fiftaentfi and W(LAr raiuaui AT THE PLAYHOUSES Dunbar Quartet at the Boyd. One might hardly believe an "entertain ment" now existed of the sort which was presented last night at Boyd's In the enter tainment course of the Young Men's Chris tian association. One whose hair is begin ning to turn a little grey and thin might have shut his eyes to close out the modem theater, ifid have imagined himself In his young manhood In some "opera house" In the good old home town. At tho Boyd, as In days of old, four versatile and ambidex trous boys sang quartettes, played the piano and a few other Instruments, dia character "readings" and clanged tunes from a table full of leather handled bells. It was a hit with the audience from Gen esis to "The Lost Chord" and the house was moreover packed with the adherents of the association. The Dunbar quartette began with "Annabel Lee," Poe's poem set to music by Van de Water. It was well done and applause brought a lullaby and other returns. Ralph Dunbar then got out his cello and played Dunkler's "Caprice Hongrolse." Then came the bells playing Kevin's "Karclssus." Swiss bells are rather entertaining once In awhile, and the audi ence was divided between admiration of the musical effect and admiration of dexterity displayed. The modulations In "Karclssus" made a genuine busy boy of Mr. Partland, who manipulated the big deep chested bells, but he got through msrvelously with one small mishap. Harry Dunbar, "the reader," reproduced James Whltcomb Riley's old corner grocery ' man who preferred tobacco to any other of ' the good things that are eaten. It was j amusing. He responded with a song and another "piece" which were not so good. Mr. Partland sang "The Charmed Cup"; the quartette gave, "the soldiers' chorus" from "Faust"; the bells did a descriptive piece about London; Messrs. Dunbar and Partland played Tltl's "Serenade" with flute, 'cello and piano and the program ended with Sullivan's "Lost Chord". The quartette Is composed of Lincoln Kewhall, Ralph Dunbar, Harry Dunbar and Ralph Partland. OMAHA MINISTERS WAKING UP Mneh Interest Manifested ia the Cna nlnar Scries of Kvangcllatlc Meetings. Interest In the coming evangelistic serv ices has arisen from a condition of almost absolute indifference to one of the utmost enthusiasm. Two weeks has made a surprising change In the attitude of the people and Rev. P. V. Moore, chairman ot the central committee, says they are awake everywhere to the Importance of the meetings which are to begin In Omaha on January 23. A meet lag of the Ministerial association to prepare for the work was held yesterday and the session lasted from 1:30 until 4 o'clock. The session was held In the First Presbyterian church and was devoted largely to conference and prayer with ref erence to the evangelistic work. In the forenoon Rev. H. C. Herriag ad dressed the meeting on the subject of "Methods In Evangelistic Work." Rev. Mr. Bell was the second speaker and had for his subject "How to Prepare the Church for the Evangelistic Work." ""he after noon topic was "The Young people and the Evangelistic Work," Rev. Dr. Clssell being the speaker, while the second topic was "How to Reach the Non-Churchgoers," Rev. E. C. Curry being the speaker. The sessions were characterized by a spirit of deep earnestness and there was a free interchange of ideas on the question at hand. It is proposed to hold services simul taneously throughout the city. Omaha has been divided Into about ten districts, In When your child is ill dislike to make it take tasting medicine. Hence well to know that Ayer's Cherry Pectoral is very pleasant. But it is a medicine, a strong medicine. Time and time again we have published the formula of this cough medicine in the principal Medical Journals of this country and Europe, and have mailed it to nearly every physician in the United States. So it follows that when your doctor orders it for coughs, colds, bronchitis, or consumption, he knows precisely what he is giving. Physicians recommend their families to keep it on hand.
