ASSOCIATION GOES TO SMITH SITE Will Bnlld at geveateeath ssd Harney aad Hew Owners Will Balld at sixteenth aad Howard Streets. The Toting Men's Christian association has sold its 132-foot square of ground at the northesst corner of Sixteenth and How ard streets to John R. Webster and J. A. Sunderland for llDO.onn, which Is 110,000 more than the association paid for It last year. The purchasers stand ready to put up any sort of creditable building which good tenants may desire. The association has closed Its option with W. Faraam Smith for the 132-foot square belonging to George Warren Smith at the southwest corner of Seventeenth snd Harney Streets, west of Boyd's theater, for $52,500. A build ing will be put up as soon as possible, cov ering the entire ground and making an In vestment of IJoOtOOO. Rumors of one sort or another have been afloat concerning this transfer for some weeks. Last week the association an nounced that It would sell this property and purchase a chenper site. The deal was cloaei at noon yesterday with Messrs. Web ster and Sunderland, who were members of the syndicate which sold the association the lots after J. L. Brandels bought the present association building. Mr. Sunderland, who was a member of the board of directors, retired from that office during the nego tiations for the property. Their opinion was strongly In favor of the Sixteenth street location and they have backed this up now by tnking the property for them selves at an advance. Y. M. C. A. Will Bnlld at Once. "The board of directors of the Young Men's Christian association," said Pres ident I. A. Carpenter, "aro united on the site chosen and expect to build during the year. We will put up a fine five-story building, 132x132 feet, with small stores on the first floor facing on Harney street. We contemplate the most up-to-dato build ing in all departments west of Chicago. The plans on which we were working for the Sixteenth atrect building will have to be changed somewhat, but the architects will begin work at once. One of the ad vantages of the Harney street location Is a saving of $2,500 In grading. We expect the plans to be ready In sixty days, to be gin building by September and to be In the building by March 1 of next year. "One thing which we firmly believe Is that the people of Omaha will be de lighted with the building. We expect to have, besides the religious facilities, fine rooms for educational classes and night schools, the best equipped gymnasium with no less than 500 lockers and with shower bath adjacent. There will be a large swimming pool. The two upper floors will be divided in real "homey' rooms, which will bo rented at reasonable figures to as sociation members. There will be 2O0 of these. In connection with these dormi tories we are going to have the finest res taurant in the city at moderate prices for members only. We are also seriously considering the advisability of a small but beautiful auditorium for Sunday meetings and social affairs, to hold If built 500. ' The building probably will be of mill construc tion, that is. slow burning, with a pressed brick exterior. Wc expert to put up a build ing which will be a credit to the city for twenty-five years and which will be ade quate to the needs of the association for that time. The Investment will be 1260,000." ' Honght as Speculation. Messrs. Webster and Sunderland say that they have taken the Sixteenth street lots as a speculation nnd because they consider them a good property. They stand ready to put up a suitable building on the corner, Mr. Webster going so far as to say they would build a block equal to tha Hoagland property If a tenant should de sire It. They havo understood that there are firms looking for a building In that section of the city and ate now ready to talk to any of these. They are not saying whether or not the building would be one large store or in small stores, but leave this to the character of building which it shall seem best to put up in the near future. NEW CRIME LAID AGAINST PENN lotted States Prisoner Wanted by State Authorities for Horn Stealing-. Eddie Fenn, the partner of C. E. Tullis la the sawdust box deal, arrested recently at Broken Bow by Deputy Murshal Allan and now in the Douglas county jail In de fault of bail. Is wanted at Lincoln and Orand Island on a charge of horso stealing. The fact of Penn'sj arrest was revealed to the Lancaster and Hall county officers through Tho Bee and they discovered that a reward of $60 was outstanding for Penn'o arrest. He was charged with horse steal ing in Hall county and of having disposed of the animal in Lancaster county. The horae was subsequently recovered and the money realized from his sale was restored to the innocent purchaser by process of re plevin. I'enn has been keeping shy of Hall and Lancaster counties since then. The Lancaster county officials are quite anxious to get hold of Penn In order to gather in the 50 reward for his upprehen slon. But In the meanwhile the t;nitcd Slates marshal is not disposed to let Penn go Just In order to enable them to realize on the reward, as Penn la held for a more serious crime than that of horse stealing, the United States charge against him being for using the United State malls for the purpose to defraud and Incidentally for manifesting a willingness to Invest In tjn0 worth of bad greenbacks for YA of the good stuff. NOT A CANDIDATE AT ALL Vletor Hosewater Disclaim Report that Ho Is .After Appointment to State Board of Education. "No Intimation that my appointment to a place on the State, Board of Education is being urged upon Governor Mickey has come to me except in the newspaper re ports from Lincoln," says Vletor Rose water. "I am not a candidate neither ac tive nor passive. When I accepted a posl Uon on the Board of University Ilegents some years ago I did so because I have personal relations with many prominent educators In the leading universities throughout the country and am In constant touch with their work and felt at the time that I could accomplish something toward materially elevating the educational stand ards of our state university. During my brier service on the board I succeeded In Inaugurating several movements that have worked In this dlrectlon'aa well as In bring ing about certain administrative reform that have proved decidedly beneficial. Iu normal school work, which la under the State Board of Education. 1 have had no experience that would fit me specially for Its supervision. It Is not for me to accept or reject sn appointment that may never be tendered, but I do not want the false Impression to go out that I am seeking It directly or indirectly."
