9 TIIE OMATIA DAILY REE: WEDNESDAY, APRTL f. 1905. An Attractive Investment THE PERU PARA RUBBER COMPANY Incorporated in the District of Columbia, has acquired a grant aggregating 375.000 acres of rubber forest land, which, computed at a conservative estimate, represents 4,500,000 rubber bearing trees of the famous PAHA KUIJUEli ready to be tapped.

De Clairmont, on condition that he and his associates, or assigns, construct at their expense two public roadways of 50 kilometers, or about 21 miles each. Competent engineers esti mate that the construction of these roads will cost about $350,000. The land was specially located by (Jeorge M. Von Ilessel, the government engineer of Peru who pronounces it "THE PICK OF ALL PERU" for its location and its fine rubber. The concession has been assigned to and purchased by the PERU PARA RURRER COMPANY, which was incorporated in January, 1905, in Washington under the general incorporation law enacted by congress for the District of Columbia.

Artie "Slmms of Akron, O., was defeated by Clarence English of this city in the second round .of what might have bten a fifteen-round boxing contest. Simmi apparently had more than ho could manage In English. SImms opened the tirst round on the offensive and closed on the defensive. KnglUli-liud decidedly the better of It in the second round. The event was a ilean-cut boxing affair In which the local man showed unquestioned superiority over his antagonist from the Buckeye Btate. Washington hall was well tilled at 8 o'clock , when Sheriff i'ower entered and Informed the committee that Oovernor Mickey had ordered the Engllsh-Simins boxing match called off na he (the gov ernor) had been Informed by Omaha people that a prize right was to take pluce. The matter was explained In tne right light to the sheriff, who promptly went to a long distance telephone ami called up the gov ernor: When Governor Mickey understood that only an athletic carnival was to take ' place he readily withdrew his objections.

LINCOLN. Neb.. April 4. It took the Oniuha. Western league team fifteen Inn ings to win from the University of Ne braska this afternoon. . Four of "Pa" itourko's regulars were absent from Omaha's lineup, youngsters taking their places, and as a result the professionals .ind a narrow escape from a beating. The collegians outbatted their opponents and should have won but for some loose fielding at critical moments. Morse, the Corn linkers' star twlrler, Stayed on the slab the entire route and made oKlcient use of the spit ball, only two of Omaha's runs being earned. Ffelster, Llebhardt and Bemls did the rotating for the profesionals. A slashing home run hit over the left field fence by Shlpke of Omaha and two three-base drives by Cooke, the Corn H'uskers' mid dle fielder, were the baiting features.

The draft ing of the University of Nebraska's foot bail schedule for the season of 1W6 has been finally completed by the booking of a game with the Iowa Agricultural college of Ames for November 4, the only remain ing date. It is by ail odds the most satis factory schedule ever promulgated by a Nebraska athletic board a ad Includes games with five state universities in the middle west, vlx. : Michigan, Minnesota, Illinois Colorado and Soutn LVkoia. The schedule complete follows: September Si Grand Island college, at Lincoln. September 30 Lincoln High school, at Lincoln. October 7 South Dakota university, at Lincoln. October 14 Knox college, at Lincoln. October 21 Michigan university, at Ann Arbor. October 28 Creighton university, at Omaha. November 4 Iowa Agricultural college, at Lincoln. November 11 Colorado university, at Lin coln. November 1ft Minnesota university, at Minneapolis. November 25 Doane college, at Lincoln. November 30 Illinois university, at Lin coln. This schedule, besides permitting the Cornhuskers to play all but two of their games on the home gridiron, should also bring greater financial returns than any previous Nebraska schedule. The con tracts with Michigan and Minnesota cull for an even division of the net receipts, a oecided concession to Nebraska, especially In tho case of Minnesota, the Gophers last year allowing Nebraska only one-half of iri.uoo while retaining for themselves the remainder of a $16,000 gate.

The State Agricultural college has stated that the reason they insist on play ing professionals on their base ball team, notably Hank Brown, the Omaha league pitcher, la because if they removed them it would materially lessen their chances of winning the. silver bat contested for by the Iowa State College league. As the State university will not meet them under any but western conference rules, their action will result in the disruption of the league. MILWAUKEE IS GOING WEST Building- Across Missouri at Chamber , lain Indicates Ultimate Plan. V. A. Nash, general western agent for the Milwaukee road, has received official advice from headquarters setting forth the plans for the Milwaukee extension from Chamberlain, 8. D., westward through Lyman county, South Dakota. While the advice received by Mr. Nash does not In dicate such a fact, it is, nevertheless, re lieved that this extension is the beginning of tho much-talked-of Chamberlaln-Paclflo coast project that has been going the rounds for some time and which recently was given some confirmation. Lyman county Is described as one of the most fertile in South Dakota, being watered by the Missouri, White and Bad rivers and Medicine creek. The soil Is a black loam, with a yellow clay subsoil. That section Is noted for its rich grasses' and the corn raised Is of an excellent quality. Dr. W. J. McCrann of South Omaha took a colony of settlers to Lyman county last year, and quite a number of Omaha peo ple own lands in that county.

LATTER DAY SAINTS MEET People from All Parts of the World As semble at Lamoni, Iowa. WILL MAKE PROTEST AGAINST POLYGAMY Eldest Son of Founder of Church Pre sides at Conference Which Will Continue In Session for Several Days. LAMONI, la., April 4,-(Speclal.) The lit tle town of Lamoni is filling up with comers to the annual gathering of the Latter Day Saints, every train Into the town bringing its contingent. Delegates are already here from various parts of the world Canada, England, South Sea Islands, Australia, Scandinavia, Scotland, Wales, Hawaii and from all parts of the United States. Once each year the Reorganized Church of Jcus Christ of 1-attcr Day Saints holds its general conference. The headquarters of this church Is at Lamoni, where lives its Venerable president, Joseph Smith, eldest son of the Joseph Smith who was killed by a mob at Carthage, III., in 1M4, fourteen years after he had founded the church. This church has no affiliation with the church In Utah, though they are often confounded with that Institution. These people repudiate the doctrine of po lygamy and concommltant evils, and de nounce the "heresies" introduced by Brig ham Young after his assumption of leader shi a. The conference proper begins April 6 at 10 o'clock a. m., at which time the large gathering of delegates will be called to order by their aged president, now a man nearly 73 years old, though hale and hearty. In presiding ovev the conference he will be assisted by his two counselors, one of whom Is his eldest son, Frederick M. Smith, the other, R. C. Evans of London, Can. These three men constitute what Is known as the first presidency, and upon them de volves the care of the whole church. At 8:30 yesterday morning one of the auxiliaries of the church began the ses sions of Its annual convention. The so ciety Is known as Zion's Rellglo-Llterary society, and is the young people's organ ization of the church. Its president is J. A. Gunsolley of Lamoni, who was this after noon re-elected to that position. The other officers elected for the ensuing year are: Walter W. Smith of Kansas City, Mo., vice president; Etta M. Hitchcock of St. Louis, secretary; Will J. Mather of Lamoni, treas urer, and S. A.' Burgess of St. Louis, li brarian. Nauvoo Wants Meeting. A notable Incident at the afternoon's ses sion wus the reading of a petition signed by 345 citizens of Nauvoo, 111., asking for the convention to hold Its next session there. Nauvoo, It will be remembered by all students of American history, is the place mado famous by the so-called "Mor mon war," which reached a climax In 1S44, when Joseph and Hyrum Smith were in carcerated in the Jail at the county seat, and on June 27 taken therefrom by a mob and murdered. The citizens of Nauvoo in this petition extend to the society a very cordial Invitation to come to their city and hold out promises of good treatment and hearty welcome. The mayor of Nauvoo sent the petition through Mr. Peterson, one of the Latter Day Saint missionaries. The General Sunday School association of the Latter Day Saints begins its ses sions today and will continue till Thurs day, when the general conference of the church will begin. Considerable ..excitement has existed in this country for .some time post over the probability that ' a movement would be started at this year's conference of the church to move Its headquarters from this place to the . town of Independence, Mo., which latter place Is looked upon by all Latter Day Saints as a final gathering place for the faithful. They expect some time to build a great temple at that place and there to enter In upon the work pre paratory to the second coming of the Savior. Any agitation of this movement to Independence naturally causes consid erable local excitement because the church has large property holdings here, among them being one of the largest publishing houses In southern Iowa. , While an at tempt may be made at this conference to pass a resolution ordering the head quarters taken to Independence, Mo., It Is doubtful that such a resolution can be adopted this year. College and Pol yarn my. Another question likely to cause some stir In the conference Is what is generally spoken of as the college question. For some ten years past the church has main tained a college at this place known as Oraceland college, at the building of which considerable debt was Incurred. At the conference held last April, at Kirtland, O., an early home of the church, a motion passed favoring the closing of the college because the debt had not been paid. The board of trustees refused to close the college, and In spite of the resolution con tinued to run the college, making stren uous effort to . liquidate the large debt. In this they were quite successful, there being now only about $3,O0Q or $4,000 yet to raise. Doubtless they will be taken to task by this conference and an explana tion demanded. Just what action the con ference will take on the matter Is hard to conjecture, though it Beems to be gen erally thought that the difficulty will be adjusted and the college allowed to run. Outside these two questions present con ditions do not Indicate anything extraor dinary at the coming session. Owing to the fact that the country has been greatly stirred up over the results of the Smoot hearing before the senate com mittee on elections and privileges, it Is but Just in this connection to say to the read ers of The Bee that the people at Lamoni have always been strict monogomlsts, In practice and precept. In fact, it Is safo to say that there is not another organization In the United States which has so per sistently fought tho doctrine of polygamy as has the Reorganized Church of Latter Day Saints. Since the early '60s It has kept Its missionaries In Utah combatting the evil, and the church organ, the Saints' Herald, now for forty years past edited E3 II For Fifty Years We Have Made COOK'! and know that it U superior to all other Champagnes and possesses all the requisites demanded by a connoisseur. The Jury of Awards at the St. Louis World's Fair have endorsed this opinion, by granting Cook's Imperial Extra Dry the GRAND PRIZE. The price of Cook's Imperial is half that of foreign makes because there is no duty or ship freight to pay on this American made Champagne.

Omahs, Neb. by Joseph Smith, has persistently and ef fectively combatted the evils of Utah "Mormonism." This church has passed resolutions favoring the adoption of a constitutional amendment which will place within the hands of the general govern ment the controlling power to put down polygamous practices nnd marriages such as hnve existed in Utah, according to the testimony at Washington, even since the "manifesto" was adopted by the Utah church as an evidence to the people of tho United States that polygamous practices would stop. Faith with the people of the United States has been broken on the part of the Utah people, and the Saints' Her ald and the Latter Day Saints of Lamoni have for years been calling attention to this very matter, as will be evidenced by an examination of the files of the Herald. Announcements of the Theaters. This afternoon at a special mutinee at the Boyd theater Miss Florence Roberts will repeat her performance of "Zaza." This evening she will give "Marta of tho Lowlands," a omantic Spanish drama of peculiar beauty, and on Thursday even ing the engagement will close with a per formance of "Toss of the D'Uubervllles.'' On Sunday afternoon Paul Gllmore will open a short stay, presenting "The Mummy and the Humming Bird." His engagement will last until after Monday night. Many requests are already being re ceived at the box office for seats at the Paderewski recital to be given at the Boyd on Thursday evening of next week.

SALE OF TURNER LOT IS INVOLVED IN IT Plan Looks Good, bat Stiff Vpset Price Is Fixed In Order to Protect Association Against Real Loss In Transaction. The Young Men's Christian association has nn option on the Warren Smith prop erty at the southwest corner of Seventeenth and Harney streets. The terms of this arrangement are that the association will take the corner opposite the Boyd theater if it can sell Its Sixteenth and Howard street property. The terms at which this new property is to be held are prlvute, but the corner sixty-six feet of it some months ago was offered at $33,000. The association lots at Howard street are 132 feet square and all of the sketches and plans made by the architect and the build ing committee have contemplated the use of the entire square, so that It Is probable the board of directors. If the change is made to Seventeenth street, would buy an equal frontage there. "If the Young Men's Christian associa tion can sell out Its property at Sixteenth and Hownrd streets at a fair profit," said F. D. Wead, "and get the southwest cor ner of Seventeenth and Harney for not more than $50,000, I should consider the change a wise move." S. P. Bostwlck holds the same opinion. "I think the association would be making a wise step in going to some cheaper lots at tho western edge of the retail section If it can sell Its Sixteenth street lots, so as to get out for what it cost or for a fair profit. Seventeenth and Harney streets would be a good location, but I believe they might get other lots that are not as expensive and are as good as a location. That would give them a large sum of money to build, free of debt." Price of the Turner Site. The difference in opinion as to whether the association did a wise thing in going to South Sixteenth street and whether It is doing a wise thing now to sell its lots, continues. While it has been said oft and on that the association has had several offers for the property at a nice profit, now it Is asserted no definite offers have been received. The board of directors be lieves that the present developments and those contemplated for this street have raised the value of the property so that it may b readily sold at a good profit. The association bought the lots from a syndicate wnich Is said to have paid the Turners $70,000. The association paid $110, 000. The price asked was $115,900. but thoss selling the property donated $5.0no of the price asked. Real estate men now figure that the association cannot sell the prop erty for much less than $126,000 and come out without a loss. The Interest on the money since the lot was purchased almost a year ago has amounted to more than $5,ono, and whllo the association pays, no rent It loses the Income from the Btores In the old build ing. The Howard street property was as sessed at $100,000, but the Board of Equali sation cut this to $25,000 on the ground that while the lots were not used for religious purposes they would be so used at an early date. This cuts down the city tax on the lots to $287.50. The as sessment on the part of the old bulldlnjr that is used for business purposes is $1lti.TO and the rest of the house is not assessed. The association is understood to get tho. advantage of this concession rather than the Brandelses. Another item which must be added to the selling price in order to come out even Is the rent the asso ciation will have to pay in temporary quar ters after it Is forced out of its old home next spring and before the new building Is ready for use. ,' The Whiskey with .
