Determination to Order Esdnction Beached

salaatloa of Charges.
it Is stated by those present at the secret
meeting; of the water board last week that
It la the unanimous sentiment of that body
that aclon shall k taken toward reducing
the water rate. Member Howell had pre
pared a resolution providing; for general
cuts In all charges ranging from 26 to 36
per cent, but did not Introduce It, saying
that he wished to have Its contents dis
cussed first to find out whether or not the
reductions he proposed were satisfactory
to the other members. In the talk thst
followed no definite conclusions were
reached, and a committee composed of
Members Coad, Barlow and Howell was
named to Investigate the question of what
are reasonable rates and report at another
meeting to be held soon.
City Attorney Breen was called Into the
conference and an effort made to Induce
him to advise concerning the wisdom of
(jutting rates, but Mr. Breen politely re
fused to be committed, saying that the new
water law plainly gives the board the right
to to crease or decrease rates to private
consumers, but that action under the sec
tion Is clearly a matter of policy and not
of law. He did not think It came within
his official capaplty to advise for or against
a reduction In rates.
Matters to Be Determined.
"There seems tu be no doubt hut that the
water board will attempt to lower the
rates." said the city attorney. "The only
questions are what the reductions shall be
and whether they should take effect in the
middle of the year, when the flat-rate rents
become due or at once; or. again. If It
would not Je best to give the appraisers
several months more to make a report be
fore taking action. In case the rates were
cut' now, to be effective at once, I do not
think anything could be recovered by con
sumers who have paid flat rates In advance
for; the first half of the year. But from
the day the action Is taken by the water
board the water company Is bound to fur
nish water at the prices designated until It
has shown tho charges to be wrong in
court. '
PERKINS PLEASED WITH OMAHA
Burlington Man Glad to See Signs of
. Industrial and Commercial
'. .', Expansion. ,

, Stomachjaralysis
Dyspepsia or Indigestion, properly
named, Is Paralysis of the Stomach.
When you have water-brash, feel
sick at the stomach, have gas or wind
. on It, or feel as though you had a ball
or heavy weight In the pit of the
stomach after eating, and the nerves
and muscles of that organ cease to
act and digest your food, that stop
page in the process of digestion, to
call It properly. Is Paralysis of the
Stomach, and should be treated as
such. It is perfect folly to assist the
stomach with dyspepsia remedies and
stimulants to dissolve the undigested
food. You may get relief, but at the
next meal you suffer again. The
proper treatment la to build up the
worn out muscles and nerves of the
stomach so that it can do Its own
work without assistance, and not only
digest tha .food you eat to-day but to
morrow ana forever after; as is done,
by the use of Dr. Chase's Blood and
Nerve Food and Liver Food, which
have aa immediate action on the
nerves and muscles, that control di

CHARACTER OF THE BIG STORM
Weather Forecaster Welsh on Stand
In Bemls Suit AgaJast the
City.
Weather Forecaster Welsh was on the
stand all of Thursday afternoon In the
case of former Mayor Bemls against the
city for heavy damages for personal Inju
ries alleged to have been sustained through
the negligence of the city In not talcing
proper precautions to safeguard a sign
board which blew over and severely in
jured him on the evening of April 26, 1902.
While Mr. Welsh was apparently sum
moned as a witness for the former mayor,
his testimony rather leaned to the side
that the storm of that day was of an ex
traordinary character. The report sent to
Washington from local weather headquar
ters went to bear out the theory, In gen
eral; but Attorney Connell,. for the plain
tiff, insisted that, taking the report as an
entirety, It would not bear that construc
tion.
There was some sparring as to admitting
all or part of Mr. Welsh's records, but
Judge Estelle did not split hairs about the
matter and the Jury will have full chance
to examine the report. It shows, as wss
developed during the examination of Mr.
Welsh, that the wind velocity on the day
In question ranged from forty to sixty-two
miles, at different hours.
Attorney Connell Intimated that if the
city attorney Insists on showing the blow
ing over of "chimneys, chickens and
chicken coops," as he put It, the plaintiff
will Insist on showing the condition of the
places and things affected, as to their stability.
JUVENILE C0URJAND KILLERS
New Law Not Likely to Aid Boys Who
Take Life In Escaping;
Panlahment.
Judge Howard Kennedy, Jr., talking of
the Juvenile court law and Its bearing on
the possible trial of Juvenile killers, said,
with relation to a news Item In The Bee of
Thursday afternoon:
"I do not. pretend to have examined tho
law closely at all, any more than any other
Judge has, but I find In tt a paragraph
specifically excepting from Its provisions
the Industrial school law as the latter
might possible conflict.
"Further, there Is a provision to the ef
fect that the terms of the Juvenile ccurt
law are to be liberally construed with espe
cial reference to Its express purpose. This
Is corrective rather than punitive, and of
course the men who framed It, Including
the attorney generel as well as local at
torneys, have kept In mind the purpose of
the law and I would say offhand that the
Breckner case would not be affected one
way or the other by the Juvenile court law."
In this connection It must be said for
County Attorney Slabaugh that In his dis
cussion of the Breckner case he spoke
while busily engaged In another law suit
and did not pretend to say that he had
closely examined the Juvenile court law.
TILE FACTORY FOR SARPY CITY

SEWER WORK FOR SUMMER
City Engineer Hu Extensive Campaign
All Planned and Beady.
FINISHING WORK ON LAST SEASON'S JOBS
Board of Public Works Takes Hold
of the Contracts Dropped by
Connolly and Will Have
Flants Completed Soon.
Work has been started under the direc
tion of the Board of Public Works on the
completion of the Clifton Hill main sewer
and the Saddle Creek sewer disposal plsnt,
which were abandoned by Contractor James
P. Connolly last fall. The Jobs will be
finished by dsy labor, supervised by. the
engineering department. City Engineer
Rose water expects to have both sewers In
commission within a month. Of the sewer,
only about 400 feet of four-foot brick con
nection remains to be put In at the south
end of the big drain, which stretches in a
northeasterly direction from Fortieth and
Grant streets to Plnkney and Thirty-first,
where It empties Into the North Omaha
main sewer. As soon as the connecting
link Is perfected a series of district sewers
already constructed In the territory
bounded by Lake, Forty-fifth, Patrick and
Fortieth street will discharge Into the main
sewer. They have been discharging their
contents Into an old creek.
Plana for Proapect Hill.
The city engineer Is preparing plans and
estimates for a main sewer much desired
by the Prospect Hill, Improvement club,
which will run from Hamilton and Thir
tieth street south to Burt street, where It
will connect with the Burt street main
sewer. This Is wanted to drain and care
for the sanitation of a territory bounded
approximately by Parker, Thirty-third and
Thlrtclth streets, Hamilton and south. Most
of the sewer will have to go through the big
forty-acre tract of unimproved land owned
by Count John A. Crelghton, which forms a
farm almost In the center of Omaha and Is
one of the curiosities of the town. The club
has arranged with Count Creighton so the
sewer can be run through his land without
the necessity of condemnation proceedings
and the award of damages. The papers
have "not been signed, but it Is thought they
will be soon.
Whether this sewer can be constructed
this year the city engineer does not know.
More important Improvements of the same
character, designed to protect valuablo
property and business Interests, stand
ahead of It and may take all the available
money out of the sewer bond fund, which
had something like $82,000 to Its credit at the
beginning of the year.
PURE SEED SPECIAL WELCOME
Barling-ton's West End Train Draws
Much Attention from the
Farmers.
A special telegram to the Burlington pas
senger department from the seed and soil
special train over western and northwest
Nebraska Indicates that farmers are tak
ing a wonderful interest In the lectures
now being delivered from that train. ' The
report sent from north of Aurora reads:
As our Bpeclnl approaches a town farmers
can be seen driving In from all directions
In spite of the threatening weather. We
were met at Burwell by over 300 people,
many coming in from a radius of twenty
miles. At Elyrla we picked up a good del
egation, carried ' them to Ord, returning
them on the evening train. Ord merchants
had a prise corn show, and invited the
members of the scientific corps to act as
Judges. Burwell met the train with a brass
band. ,.
The Palmer Commercial club sent teams
many miles Into the country to bring In
farmers. At St. Paul the capacity of the
train was altogether exceeded. An over
flow meeting was held In a crowded watlng
room.
Friday the special will make a run over
the Burlington northwest from Ravenna,
going as far as Alliance. The Indications
all point to unexpectedly large crowds at
all lecture points, with the necessity of
picking up delegations all along the line
at intermediate points between the lecture
towns.
"The great difficulty Is," said a Burlington
official, "we cannot give a lecture at every
point." . -
ZIMWER'S GOOD CHARACTER
Man Who Pleads Gntlty to Aggra
vated Assault Asks for Miti
gation of Sentence.
On the understanding that his attorney
will be allowed to Introduce testimony as
to previous good character, Jack Zimmer,
a teamster, 30 years of age, on Thursday
afternoon pleaded guilty to assault on a
10-year-old girl before Judge Day. The
offense Is alleged to have been committed
about February 1 In the rooms of the child's
mother in the Martin flata.
circumstances connected with the raae nf
an aggravated character.
Owing to the fact that the term mnv b
from three to twenty years In the peniten
tiary, judge Day consented to accept the
plea of guilty with the understanding al
luded to, so that If Zimmer has been of
good character, and this shall appear, he
may have the benefit of anv mltlo-ntlnn
which that fact might warrant.
Announcements of the Theaters.
The bill on at the Oroheum this woeic 1.
pronounced one of the best seen this season
by the many patrons of this favorite form
of theatricals and as a result the attend
ance is very big. Every number on the
program Is well received, the climax being
reacnea in an uproarious spasm of laugh
ter when Louis Simon, Grace Gardner and
company appear In "The New Coachman."
The following enthusiastic ltter n,Mi
yesterday from Bandmaster Innes of Chl
esgo by Mr. Chase, is as fine and hand
some an endorsement as could be made of
me work of the Conreld company, and,
coming from Mr. Innes, who la so well
knowa In Omaha, will be especially Inter
esting: My Dear Mr. Chase I took advantage of
the opportunity of being on tha ground
last night to go in and hear the ouenltig
performance of the Metropolitan Grand
Pv,pe.ra.v.iomlany ln. "t'Ucla." I understand
that this is one of the operas to be given
by this same company In Omaha a few
days prior to our festival. Surely the
whole of Omaha ought to turn out in big
force, and they doubtless will, to hear
what I consider one of the greatest pro
ductions of this very beautiful opera I have
ever seen. The house was packed to the
doors, and 1 do not think that I ever saw
a more brilliant audience anywhere. Smn
brich was the Lucia and Caruso the Kd
gardo, and they fairly lifted the audience
off Its feet several times during the even
ing. The ovation which followed the giv
lug of the famous sextette was the oc
casion for a scene of enthusiasm whlrh I
have never seen excelled. The house fairly
rose at them and. In faot, stopped the fur
ther performance of the opera. for soma
twelve or fifteen minutes until the place
had been given once more. Caruso is prob
ably the greatest living tenor. At any
rate, his performance last night seemed to
me to Justify that claim, but Sembrlch's
mad scene and the triumph which she
achieved In It made It difficult to decide as
to which Is the greater artist.
The orchestra Is a fine one and Its play
ing alone is worth one's gomg many miles
to hear. Tha Omaha performance of this
opera should be and doubtless will be tho
occasion of an audience that will tax the
capacity of even your fine Auditorium.
With regards. F. N. INN Ed.

The funeral of Irene Kenton Foran will
be held from E. I Dodder's undertaking

HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETIC CARMVAL
Big Program to Be Brooaht OAT at
Y. M. C. A. Friday Nlgbt.
Mr. Congdon, faculty manager of ath
letics at the high school, announces a feast
of good things (n an athletic way for Fri
day night. The Young Men's Christian as
sociation gymnasium is to be the place and
7:30 p. m. the time. This Is to be a sort of
wlndup for winter athletics and a com
mencement for spring's outdoor work. All
sorts of stunts are on the tapis and will
serve to show that the ancient Greeks with
their "mens snna In corpora sano" did not
live In vain. The Sioux City High school Is
coming down to play basket ball, and (at
least so 'its reported) the Corn Palace war
riors have been sitting up for a score
of nights devising ways and means to beat
the husky team from the building on tfce
hill. A "well-defined" rumor has It that
the rivalry between the two schools Is in
tense. There Is also to be a basket ball
game between the Juniors and sophomores
for the high school championship, ICach
team will have rooters galore to cheer it
on to victory. It Is a much mooted point
ss to which can make the more noise, but
be It not forgotton that on this night of all
nights the Juniors will not let dignity stand
In the way of victory.
Rope climbing, thirty yards dashing, shot
putting, wrestling, relay racing, obstacle
raring and other events will lend mueoular
eclat to sn athletic bill replete with good
things. There Is only one little source of
disappointment for this most Joyous occa
rion. The Young Men's Christian sssocla
tlon gymnasium only holds X0 people and
there are over IxiO high school students, to
say nothing of the legion of friends and ad
mirers. Hut, ains, so 'tis, and the powers
that be have been compelled to make a
rule that only 3.--0 tickets msy be sold. A
very wise provision, by the way. But It
will occasion some tall hustling to secure
tickets. The feminine portion of Omsha's
famous sent of learning will be well repre
sented, for the gallantry of the youthful
disciples is like unto that of the knights
of old.
"Ist we forget," the time and plnre are
again repeated 7:30 p. m., Friday, March
23, at the Young Men's Christian associa
tion gymnasium.
VIS1TIXG CHAMPIOX9 ARE BEATE
Wheaton Basket Ball Team Snecnmhs
to Omaha Y. M. C. A.
Omaha's Young Men's Christian as

ing and evincing a pardonable pride In
its record of Thursday afternoon ngalnst
the traveling cracks from Wheaton. III.
The latter team. In a recent tournament,
tied for second place to the champion Chi
cago Centrals, and in the play-off won
third place. So much notoriety did the
Wheaton plavers gnln that they are new
en route to Salt Ike City to piny an
exhibition gome next Snturdny evening.
The Illinois lnds. having a few hours
to spend in Omnha, exrirrssed a desire to
meet the local Young Men's Christian as
sociation plavers. Thev were accommo
dated, and at 1 o'clock Friday after
noon the two tennis met at the
Young Men's Christian association
rooms The first twenty-minute, half
was a tie. 21 to 21. In . the seoond
half the local players cut loose for a
winning, and at the close of the seconrt
half the Omahas had to their credit ,
while the best the Wheaton athletes could
count was 31. The Omaha rlayers were
brought In on the spur of the moment,
and the result has pleased their friends
immensely. They won without practice
particularly, and simply on form and team
work. . ...
The Illinois players expressed a desire to
meet the Omaha team on their return trip.
Saturday of next week, but as the Young
Men's Christian association team is to
play the State I'nlversity at Lincoln on
that night a second meeting Is Impossible
at that time.
The Chicago traveling team comprises
eight men, two of whom are managers.
They left ' Thursday afternoon for Salt

CLEVELAND. March 23 Frank DeHaas
Robinson, president and owner of the St.
Louis National League Base Ball club
said tonight regarding the reported raid
by minor leagues upon the American
learue: , . ,
"If the reported raid on the American
league of fifty stars by the minor leagues
mean anything more than talk It must
mean not only a cash Investment or m
000, but a bond for three times that amount,
for no major league star ls-apt to Join a
minor league unless his future Is assured
for at least three years. Needless to say,
the National league positively Is not back
of the movement."

GOOD BLOOD
I TELL.S ITS OWN.STORY
, And tells it eloquently in the bright eye, the supple, '
elastic movement, the smooth, soft skin, glowing with
health, a body sound and well, an active brain, good
appetite and digestion, refreshing sleep, energy to per
form the duties and capacity to enioy the pleasures of
life.' The blood is the most vital part of the body:
every organ, muscle, tissue, nerve, sinew and bone is dependent on it for
nourishment and strength, and as it circulates through the system, pure and
strong, it furnishes to these different parts all the healthful qualities nature
intended. When, from any cause, the blood becomes impure or diseased, it
tells a different story, quite as forceful in its way. Itching, burning skin
diseases, muddy, sallow complexions, disfiguring sores, boils, carbuncles,
etc., show the presence, ' in the blood, of some foreign matter jr poison.
Rheumatism, Catarrh, Contagious Blood Poison and Scrofula, are effects of
a deeply poisoned blood circulation. These may either be inherited or ac
quired, but tne seat 01 trouble is tne same tne
blood. S. S. S., a purely vegetable blood remedy,
cleanses and purifies the circulation and makes it
strong and clean. Under its purifying and tonic ef
fects all poisons and impurities are expelled from
the blood, the general health is built up, all disfiguring eruptions and blem
ishes disappear, the skin becomes soft and smooth and robust health blesses
life. Rheumatism, Catarrh, Scrofula, Contagious Blood Poison and all dis
eases of the blood are cured by S. S. S. Book on the blood and any medicaj
