THE OMAHA DAILY PEE: MONDAY, APRIL 17. 100, Never Loses Its Strength Always the Some CALUMET ALUMEf 11 tt M IPowdeF Is Most IlerJtkful, Wholesome and Economical AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA Property Owcmt of Missouri Avenue Dis trict Keenly Disappointed. WANTED STREET PAVED THIS YEAR City Council Soon to Proceed to Cjet 'iwr Ronl Proposition in Shape for Action at a Special Election, Property owners In the eastern section of the cUy and also in the southwest section wera greatly disappointed when they read In The Bee that the Missouri avenue atd West Q street paving was off. or a long time It has been one of the desires of the people living in the district adjacent to Missouri twenue that this street be paved. Arrangements were made for this work and contracts Were to have been let at a meeting of the onuncll to be held tonight. Since it was discovered on Saturday that tha law has teen changed nothing can now be done towards paving Missouri avenue or West Q street. It leaves the proposition where It was formerly; petitions will have to be filled out, signed by a majority of the property owners, and this must go through the regular grind in the council. There seems to be such a demand for the pav ing or Missouri avenue and West Q street that 1t appears more than likely that the neoassary petitions will soon be presented to the council. ' ewer Proposition Open. The knocking out of the paving of these streets under tbe old law does not In any manner affect the sewer bond proposition. The sewer bond matter was an entirely different bill and was carried. The city council will doubtless scon proceed to take steps to Issue bonds for the construction of a main sewer. This proposition will have to be brought to tbe attention of the residents and a special election must be held for , the purpose of giving the mayor and council the right to issue bonds. While the reconstruction of the entire sewer system, of South Omaha will cost about S25O.0OO, the Intention now Is to have the voters give their opinion on the main sewer problem first This main sewer, ac cording to the plans, is to extend from the south of Swift's plant to the river, and the cost of this sewer Is estimated at 000. . So far no attempt ha been made to set the ' date for the special election for the purpose of voting on the sewer bond propo sition, but this matter will doubtless be taken up before - long. Workmen Getting Busy. ' South Omaha lodges of the Ancient Or der of United Workmen are completing arrangements for the entertainment of delegates to the grand lodge, which meets here on May. 9. Quite a number of tbe details have not been completed, but it Is known that delegates from 375 towns In Nebraska will be present. The list of dele gates Is expected to arrive today. Prep arations must be made for entertaining 700 delegates and not less than 800 members of the order who will attend the convention. It has been decided to give a smoker at the . dining room In the Exchange build ing on Tuesday, May. 9. Light refresh ments will be served and members prora in'cnt In-the order will be called upon to PW sinaBaat aajaaaaa nHMMsn cr o j cr d1 fr r( czL cz.

It is expected that Senator Hurkett will attend as a delegate and deliver a speech at tbe smoker. What is worrying the local lodges Is hotel accommodations for the delegates. A committee is now looking after this mat ter. Delegates will be shown through the packing houses and over the stock yards. The convention will last atiout four days. Arranging for Better Hisrtrra, A committee from the local lodge of Eagles held a conference yesterday with Colonel C, M. Hunt, owner of the building at Twenty-sixth and N streets, where the Eagles now have headquarters. In regard to making some improvements. Colonel Hunt agreed to raise the height of the ceiling In the big lodge rbom and make other changes so as to permit of a larger attendance at meetings. The entire sec ond floor of this building will doubtless be secured for club purposes for members only. Another building is being looked at by the committee and no decision will be reached for a week or two. If suitable arrangements can be made the South Omaha Eagles will have a nest that will compare favorably with that of any like order In thla section of the country. Committee Mar Investigate. There Is some talk of sending a committee to Lincoln to look up the supposed error In the city charter whereby the authorities of South Omaha are prohibited from pav ingMissouri avenue under the okl law. Mayor Koutsky said last night that a committee might be sent to Lincoln this week to locate the error. If anything can be done o rectify this error the committee will take the matter In hand at once. No Important Business Tonight. W. P. Adklns, president of the city coun cil, said last evening that there was nothing special on hand for tonight and it might be that there would be no quorum. Bonds for a city hall building cannot be sold until May 1, according to the adver tisement in the official paper of the city, and as there seems to be little of im portance on hand It looked last night as If the meeting. If one is held, would be very short. There la some talk of holding a quorum long enough to ratify the ap pointment of a pound master, but the chances are that this will go over for an other week. Big Demand for Sunday's Bee. Sunday's edition of The Bee sold so' rap idly at news s'ands and on the streets that It was necessary to send to Otnaha j for an additional supply. Every one seemed to want yesterday's issue, as It raOSKEY GETS MAULED F RourkVs Young Pitcher Indulged in One Balloon Ascension. BREWERS GET FIVE UNEARNED RUNS Carter and Gandlns Momentarily I.os Their Grip When Pitcher is ia Trouble and Add to the Grief. McCloskey had one bad Inning, the fourth, .and that tells the story of the game. McCormick flew out to Thlel, and Clarke struck out, and then MoClosk.y went to pieces. McChowiey singled, O'Brien waited for a pass, Wolfe poked out a double, Mueller drew a pass and then Carter muffed Robinson's low fly and Qondlng threw low to third when the ball was bring passed around. Thfs netted Milwaukee five unearned runs and prac tically the game. And it al came after two were out. Before It was finished O'Neill made a double and Hemphill and MrCormick each drew base on balls, mak ing four passes for the Inning. Clarke made the second and third outs, fouling to Oonding to finish the muss. Milwaukee had already scored once In the second on Clarke's single and McChesney's three bagger, and added two more In the sev enth on a base on balls, a triple and a single. Quick relieved McCloskey in the seventh. Omaha started right after Mueller in the first. Thlel and Carter hit safe, and Thiol scored when Mueller threw the ball away trying to catch Carter. Dolan doubled. Thomas ' tripled and Schlpke sin gled and Omaha scored four runs, earning three. In the ninth Omaha started a nice batting rally and pounded home two more earned runs. Quick led with a corking plngle, Thlel rapped one to the fence for three and Carter poked out a neat drive to center. Welsh had hard luck, his screaming hot liner hitting Curtis, who had relieved Mueller in the fifth, and turning a safe drive Into a put, out. Dolan hit to Robinson and Thomas sent a high one to Hemphill. Three hundred spectators shivered through the garnet which was characterized by a lot of heavy hitting and some sharp fielding by both teams' and a continual shower of verbal pyrotechnics from the Cantillon bench directed at everything in general and nothing in particular. Joe is surely preparing to make things hum In the American towns this next summer. The score: MILWAUKEE. A 8. R. 6 1 Robinson, ss...

April 15.-(Speclal.) Much interest is manifested here over the proposed reorganization of the field ar tillery. The. president, the chief of staff and the chief ot-artillery are Bald to be in favor ot the regimental organization of the Held artillery and of forming it into a corps separate and apart from the coast ariillery. The president has asked that the question be considered of what reser vations are most suitable for the training or this arm under conditions simulating those of actual service in war, and It is well known that no reservation in the country tan equal Fort Riley In this re spect. It is believed, therefore, that in the event ot the currying out of this scheme an entire regiment will be stationed here. A rlan for the tegimental organization with thrue battalions to a regiment, each battalion to consist of three batteries, Is the one moat likely to be adopted, and this would Increase the garrison by four bat teries. Every one familiar with this reser vation, with its thousands of acres of forest and streams, hills and valleys and level plains, know that no other In the country is so wtill fitted for the practical training of field artillery, and if the ques tion is decided on Its merits It Is more ihttn likely that the expected Increase in the garrison will be bronght about.
