THE OMATIA DAILY TtEE: PATFUPAY. APRIL P. 100.". 11 AFFAIRS AT S0UTI1 OMAHA Unusually Large Amount of Building in Progress at Present Time. PROSPECTS FOR MORE IN THE FUTURE Work ra th Jlw Elevator la Pro. rmlif Favorablo mm A Coaereto for tho Foaadatlom Row Bctaa- Pat la. Bulldlnf tn South Omaha Is going en at a rapid rata Just now. Permits are being issued every day and a big Increase over April of last year Is looked for by the building- Inspector. For March of this year tho permits Issued amounted to 138.1G0. This shows an Increase over March a year ago. Oeorgs Briggs, the plumber, has secured permits for the erection of four cottages at Twenty-sixth and F streets to cost $1,000 each. These permits were recorded Friday afternoon. N. H. Carter has the contract for putting up these dwellings; Other per mits Issued yesterday were to Ous Ander son. Fifteenth and Missouri avenue, for a dwelling; Mrs. O. E. Lee, Twenty-seventh and A streets, a residence to cost 11.000 Mrs. E. Lowry, Twentieth and L streets, 11.000. Every day the business la the building Inspector's office grows and the Inspector Is kept moving about all the time looking after construction work In all parts of the city. In addition to the new buildings men tioned, quite a number of permits have been Issued for repairs to dwellings, the building of barns and so en. A great deal of repair work la being done without securing permits. This la confined mostly to shingling buildings and the re pairs fa roofs. Repairs are being made to the roof of the city hall building. The Im provements being made at the Omaha Pack ing plant appear to come under the head of repairs, as no permit has been asked for or Issued. Few carpenters and brick masons are Idle these days and the demand for good carpenters and handlers of the trowel la Increasing. All of the packing houses will make re pairs and Improvements this year, but the bulk of this work will not start until the weather becomes settled. Micro Sooth Omaha Market. J. D.

LITTLE GIRL'S BANK AFFORDS LOOT Many Valuables Overlooked, bat a Carefully Hoarded Stock of Pen nies Is Taken by the Burglarious Marauders. Burglars of unusual dannc robbed the house of Maurice D. Hussle, 8432 Lafayette avenue, Thursday. In order to enter the house, which stands in a well populated neighborhood, they broke the lock on the cellar door in broad daylight, went In through the basement and took out a panel in the door at the head of the stairs to the kitchen. They got away with S125 worth of Jewelry. Among their spoils was a toy bank con taining $3.33 in pennies, which belonged to little Helen Hussle, 6 years old. For months she had been saving the money by getting pennies from her father whenever he hap-' pened to .have any in his pocket. He had told her that when she had saved U he would take all the pennies and give her a $5 bill. With the bill she expected to buy an Easter lily for her mother and use the remainder to purchase a large flag for decorating the front porch on the Fourth of July. She Is almost heartbroken over her loss. The thieves secured one watch, two chains, a stickpin and several rings. They overlooked a watch, a diamond stickpin and $5 in money. A lot of silver plate, which Mrs. Hussle had Just purchased, but which had not yet been engraved with her name, they examined, but did not carry away. The fact that they left so many valuables leads to the belief that they were amateurs. About 2 o'clock In the afternoon the family went away and when they returned the house had been robbed. Mrs. Ilussie was Inclined to the belief that the thieves were boys, some who knew the members of the family and hud seen them all leave. A neighbor, however, said she saw two men prowling In the rear of the house, one of them a white man and the other a negro. One carried a gunny sack. The police are looking Into the matter.

Q. 8. SUTTON, Worthy Master. Samuel I. Gordon is Ruing In the district court to recover from J. W. Eller the sum of 11,677.16 and in the same petition asks that Mr. Eller be required to show cause why he should not be disbarred from the practice of the law. This suit Is an aftermath of the case of the State of Nebraska ex red S. I. Gordon, relator, against Frank E. Moores, of the city of Omaha. Mr. Gordon recov ered a Judgment against the city for $2,500, of which he collected all but $l.fi(iO. He alleges that he had employed Mr. Eller as attorney and had paid many good fees, also that he had Brrved notice on Eller that he need not consider himself retained as such an attorney after a certain date. It is also set forth thut Eller was warned not to try to collect the $1,600 from the city, but that he did so nevertheless. Plaintiff alleges that for the purpose of securing a debt due he had transferred his right In the warrant for $1,600 to W. A. Gordon and that due notice of this fact was served on Eller. Notwithstanding he was paid all that was coming to him from S. I. Gordon, as alleged, Eller did secure payment of the warrant from the city treasurer by representing himself as Gor don's attorney and by signing Gordons name to the warrant as such alleged attor ney. Unlawful conversion and use of the sum named is therefore alleged, and the courts are asked to make Mr. Eller show cause as stated. The motion to show cause Is set for hear ing before Judge Sears on Saturday, April 15. DATE FOR OMAHA HORSE SHOW Officers of Exhibition Decide on Time and Other Details for Display.
