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.

STREET AND SEWER MATTERS
City Coaacll In General Committee
Hears Some Explanations
and Complaints.
N. P. Dodge, Jr., appeared before the gen
eral committee meeting of the city coun
cil yesterday afternoon and presented tho
street situation in a tract of land known
as the Dodge and Root addition. 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 will be arranged to waive the
usual fee In Levy's case and permit him
to either negotiate with his neighbors or
build his own line for a considerable dis
tance to the main. -
The question of Installing a fire alarm
box at the Auditorium was considered at

favor of having passed this evening a meas
ure ordering the Auditorium company to
Install the bog forthwith as a matter of

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. No
other play of life in the west has ever
had the hold on the affections of the people
that has been attained by "Davy Crockett."
Davy Crockett was a genuine man In all re
spects and his life from a backwoods boy to
congressman Is a page of thrilling border
history. Jeffries is said to make an Ideal
hero, having the splendid physique and the
other personal equipment essential to suc
cess in the role. His company Is also said
to be good. The engagement is for a
single performance. For the lovers of
athletics a three-round boxing exhibition
will be given at the close of the play.
The bill at the Orpheum this week has
made a pleasing Impression on the large
audiences. Captain Webb's acting seals
are as unique aa they are amaslng In the
role of actors. They perform a remarkable
lot of "stunts," accomplishing many dea- :

WCyil II CLUB AI9 C1AKITT
It 'Was a business meeting with the
Woman's club yesterday afternoon and
there was a conspicuous absence of those
who seek entertainment rather than In
at ruction, though the real working strength
of the club was present. 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.

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.
