'fim day thta wk the nre and water
rwnmlttee of the city council and mem-fce-re
of the Klre and Police board will
visit Omaha for the purpose of Inspecting
mome of the new Are engine houses there.
An architect Is to he Invited to accom
pany the party In order that aome Ideaa
may be obtained for the new fire hall to
be erected at Twenty-fifth and L streets.
A couple of month ago the city council
purchased property at the southwest cor
ner of Twenrty-flfth and L streets for the
purpose of erecting permanent fire depart
ment headquarters. The ground haa been
paM for nnd next In order will come the
making of- plana nnd the letting of con
tracts for the building. Ona of the mvm
fibers of the oouncll said last evening that
every effort would be made to put up a
fire hall with all necessary conveniences
and one that would be a credit to the city
There la money enough In the fire fund
now to make a start on the building, nnd
other nources of revenue are avnlluble so
that a building to cost not over 115,000 can
easily be arranged for without Increasing
the tax levy or the necessity tor voting
bonds. In this contemplated bdlldlng there
la to be room for a stenmet ft truck, a
hose wagon and a chiefs bnygy. Stall
room for at least nine horses will be pro
vided. The sleeping rooms of the men
will be comfortable nnd bah rooms will
be provided. The Idea of Visiting some of
the fire hnlls In Omaha Is give the com
mlttees and the architect, to be employed
an opportunity of deciding upon just what
is wanted tienp. When plnns nre drawn
the cost will be kept down within the
means at harnd. It appears to lie the In
tentlon of the canncll to go ahead with
this mattw.- In order that the new fire
house mary be erected and ready for oc
cupancy before Snow files. As soon as a
new building Is placed at the disposal of
the rif-partiucnt additional apparatus will
have to be provided, but the fire and water
conrmlttee of the council seems to think
thu'i this can be done without a great deal
oc difficulty.

Laborers in a railroad grading camp at
Twenty-fifth and Martha streets held a
beer festival Sunday afternoon and a brawl
ensued. ' A squad of police, consisting of
Sergeant Reutfrow, Officer Bloom and De
tectives Ferris and Mitchell, were dis
patched to the place and the crowd scat
tered to all points of the compass. One
man was found with a black eye, but there
were no reports of serious injuries. No
arrests were made. This gang has mad
trouble for several consecutive Sundays,
but they usually do no harm except to
quarrel among themselves. The only occa
sion where they ' molested others was. one
evening when they threw a brick through
a saloon window.

Liquor Applications Normal.
Up to 'Saturday night elghty-aoven appli
cations ' for saloon licenses In South
Omaha had been advertised In The Bee,
This Is about the normal as compared
with last year. For the year 1904 the
Fir and Police board listened to ninety
one applications and granted eighty-seven
licenses. Up to the present time this year
only four licenses have been granted. Tues
day night the police board will meet for the
purpose of taking action on a large num
ber of applications. More than likely the
city treasurer will be in receipt of con
siderable license money and on Tuesday
more money is expected, as the time of
the expiration of licenses Is drawing near.
No applications are considered by the po-
lice commissioners unless the bond, the
. proof of publication and the receipt of
'the city treasurer for J1.CM0 Is In the hands
of Secretary Bergqulst before the opening
of tho session. All of the license fees de
rived from saloobs In South Omaha goes
to the support of the public schools. Since
' the license was Increased from 1900 to
fl.Ono the city authorities have not under
taken to impose an occupation tax on
saloons.
Eagles Dance Tonight.
, A ball Is to ba given tonight at Work'
i men tempi by the Eagle Dress club. Al
ready a large number of tickets haa been
sold among the members of the order and
an excellent dancing program haa been
arranged. . An orchestra will furnish music

City Needs Rock Rile.
In looking over th arrests mad Satur
day night and Sunday Captain Bhlelda said
that all were vagrants, with th exception
of a few drunks. "What South Omaha
needs at this time." said Captain Shields,
"Is a rock pile. If th police Judge would
sentence a few vagrants to Serve a terra

ridding th city of a lot of tramp who
are Just now coming out of their holes.
As a general thing a tramp Is a petty
thief and th best and qulckeat way to
rid the city of tramp Is to establish a
rock pile."
Th rock pile plan haa been tried her
a number oj times and the results have
been quite satisfactory. Police officers de

FIRE RECORD.
Ftrebofr Symptoms at Broken Bow,
BROKEN BOW, Neb., April S3.-(Speclal.)
Two fires within the past twenty-four
hours, and both originating In a mysterious
and unknown manner, lead people to believe
there are parties who need much looking
after by the city authorities. The first of
these fires occurred at 3 o'clock yesterday
morning In the repair building of the tele
phone company. Although the fire depart
ment rendered good service, the building
and Its contents were completely ruined.
Manager Adumson states that the whole
outfit Is a complete loss. The second fire,
which occurred Inte last night, totally de
stroyed the stable of Dr. Talbot. The live
stock within was fortunately rescued, but
the building and Its contents were consumed.

"What Is the present observable effect
of the Jnpanese-Russlan war on the
Chinese people?" waa asked.
"It requires close acquaintance with the
Chinese people and their ways of looking
nt things to appreciate them," he re
plied. "PosHlbly I may best give an un
derstanding of the effect by dividing the
people roughly Into two groups, namely,
those who have the means for keeping
themselves Informed of what Is going on
and those who hnve pot. The latter
group compose the great bulk of the
Chinese people. Unquestionably the first
group I have Indicated realize that a great
change Is about to come over the Chinese
nation, and that In a way probably not
yet clearly understood. Closer and more
sympathetic relations must be cultivated
with what we call foreigners, that Is to
say, we cannot continue to stand up
against the adoption of such changes in
our national policy ns will enable us to
meet the foreigners and do (fastness with
them on an extended scale and on the
plane of a common understanding of con
ditions. Method Not Certain.
There is little or no difference of opinion
among educated Chinese on this point; but
Just how the changes-will come about there
Is rmich difference of opinion. We, of
course, have observed how rapidly the
Japanese have risen to the rank of a
power of the first class as the result of
the adoption of such Information as they
could gain from foreign nations and at
the same time harmonise with their na
tlonal spirit. Their wonderful success In
the present war, resulting most largely
from their adoption of American and
European, methods, makes It clear to the
well Informed Chinese how little chance
Japan would have had If the old methods
and national policies vwere now In force,
"Naturally we reflect how powerless the
Chinese nation would be In a contest of
this magnitude and you can see that this
understanding Is only a short step from
tho conviction that to be able to meet
other nations on anything like an equal
footing we must change very much. And
the arriving at this conviction Is a very
small matter to the problem of bringing
the desired and necessary changes about
To give you a definite understanding of
the second group Into which I have dl'
vlded the Chinese people It would be nec
essary to tell you of the social and polit

of China, and then one will, from force of
circumstances," be compelled to Ohllt

only a Chinaman can comprehend and feel
the full force of. Japan Is what do you
call ttf Yes, snug Japan Is a snug nation.
It Is liko comparing a small family to a
big one when you compare China and
Japan with each other. China Is an Im
mense nation, both territorially and In
population, and the great mass of peo
ple cannot be turned Into a new way of
thinking and be led to favor and adopt
strange habits very easily. It Is doubt
ful If It is possible for the Chinese people
to change the whole character of their
ways of looking at and doing things as
have the Japanese, If for no other rea
son on account of their number and wide
distribution under a, great variety of con

OOLDFIELD. Nev.. April 23. (Special.)
The big strike on Montgomery moun
tain, within a mile of the town of
Rhyolite, In the center of the Bullfrog
district, continues to be the .reigning sen
sation here.
An offer was made today of $10,000 per
day for a lesse, nnd 25 per cent royalty
In addition on the not production, to mine
the ledge that Is now open In the tunnel
on the Shoshone group of claims on Mont
gomery mountain)
The offer was accompanied by a certi
fied check for 1100,000 as forfeiture money.
Robert Montgomery and Malcolm Mac-
donald, the owners, without any hesita
tion, refused to approve the proposition.
In the opinion of well posted mining en
gineers here the mine could be gouged of
160,000 worth of ore dally for the next
ninety days, and this estimate Is made
without any regard to ore not now In
sight.
The development work on the property
consists of a tunnel run In the side of
the mountain a distance of 140 feet. The
tunnel discloses a vein for a distance of
sixty feet and It does not yet reach the
foot wall. A drift from the tunnel of
about twenty feet has been cut, and here
an upraise has been started to the surface
for air, with every Indication that the phe
nomenally rich ore, averaging over 11,000
per ton, extends for an unknown distance.
Ore Must Assay 9SOO Per Ton.
On the Polaris group of claims adjoining
the Shoshone group on Montgomery moun
tain, ore Is now being sacked and a ship
ment will be made within the. next fort
night. Ore that does hot assay over $300
per ton Is being thrown over the dumps.
Malcolm Macdonald and Robert Mont
gomery are the principal owners of the
Polaris group, which they purchased with
in a few days after the great strike on
the Shoshone. i
Work has only just begun on the south
half of the mountain, recently Purchased
by D. II. Peery of Salt Lake City for the
Montgomery Mining company, and $300 In
ore has been uncovered at a depth of six
feet. The enormous ledge uncovered by
the tunnel at the Shoshone end of tho
mountain has been found In place on the
Peer;' end.
Mr. Peery was among the first to learn of
the big strike on the Shoshone some weeks
ago. He Jumped into the district and with
out ado purchased the south end of the
mountain at a figure that wi considered
at that timo fabulous by the uninformed,
but has since proved to be ono of the
greatest bargains that has been picked
up In the state. Three distinct offers have
been made by Goldfleld mining men for
the south end of the mountain, purchased
by Mr. Peery, and he could realize from
$300,000 to $400,000 cash profit on his pur
chase were he inclined to sell. It Is un
derstood that McCormlck & Co., bankers.
and Robert Walker, banker, both of Salt
Lake City, are Interested with Mr. Peery.
Shoshone Rational Bank Mining Co.
A group of claims that have their end
lines at the foot of Montgomery mountain
and extend In a scutherly direction to
Ladd mountain, on which Is situated the
famous Bullfrog National Bank property.
has been Incorporated under the name of
Denver ledge. A fine body of ore, show
ing average assays of $175 per ton has been
encountered. A deal was consummated a
few days ago by Jones A ttorllnl, whereby
Benator T. L. Oddle of Tonopah and Arthur
Wlnslow of the great Combination mine of
Qoldtleld secured control of the Bullfrog
Kclipse Mining company. It Is stated the
price paid was close to $250,000. The same
parties have taken an option on the Tramp
No. 1 and the Tramp Extension claims,
of the Hobo Fraction on the Bullfrog
Kclipse Mining company. The property
lil Tlgre claim on the ' Bullfrog Eclipse
Consolidated Mining company, which com
pany will acquire the property of the Bull
frog Eclipse and the claims under option.
The property Is being developed under the
management of R. F. Sutherland. A
ledge twelve feet wide runs the length
of the Hobo Fraction on the Bullfrom
Eclipse property, showing values from $25
to $300 per ton. A cut was made on the
El Tlgre claim on. the Bullfrom Eclipse
for the fiurpose of making a shaft house
for sinking. This exposed a vein In the
ledge matter, running two feet wide, that
averages over $300 per ton. The entire
dyke through the Tramp, Side Winder and
Hobo claims shows an average value of
$35. Where the dykes are being broken off
for tho purpose of laying the foundation
of tho shaft house they show an average
of $40 and $50.
The Denver group, which waa recently
bonded for $100,000 by J. II. Berghauser and
his associates, Is contiguous property to
this group, and Is being developed by Mr.
O. Kemp, a noted mining engineer. Four
hundred dollars In ore has been encountered
on tho Denver group of claims. v
An Important strike has been reported
on the Montana Bullfrog property, which
lies at the right of the town of Rhyolite,
on Ladd mountain. A tunnel has been run
In the side of the mountain and a ledge
forty feet wide has been crosscutted. This
property adjoins the Bullfrog Mining com
pany's property on Ladd mountain. The
tunnel Is In 150 feet. A vein four and one
half feet wide has disclosed ore that as
says $200 per ton. A drift has been started
north on the ledge, and the entire face
of the drift is In ore of a good shipping
grade. A shaft Is also being sunk at a
point 190 feet east of the Bullfrog Mining
company's shaft. Three shifts of men are
at work In the tunnel, and two shifts are
working in the shaft.

ably from those of any numerous people
In the world. The Chinese people are not
Ignorant and uneducated, but their edu
cation Is of a different character. The
great mass of people nre satisfied to re
main as they are; they want to be left
alone and to live their lives according to
their simple understanding of their duty.
It is a hard problem to quickly teach such
a great muss of people that they must, to
a very large extent, abandon what they
have been taught to believe is best for
them to take up nnd mould their lives to
methods and customs which they have for
generations been taught to abhor and have
a contempt for. It Is not enough for them
to lie convinced that the leading men of
China favor the change, Tou will have to
convince the people themselves. Tou can
realire, In some degree, the difficulty of
getting so many people to Mnk about
the aume thing at the same time when
our system for tho spread of Information
Is so primitive as compared with that of
certain nations which have advanced along
material lines to such an extraordinary
uegree.
Chinese Mast Chance.
"Do you think tho Chinese people will
ultimately change as the Japanese have
done?
"They will and must If they want to
preserve anything like national Inde
pendence. But' it will be the result of a
campaign of education such as China
has never seen before, both In character
and quality. There la little doubt that It
will be a part of the future policy of
Japan to do everything In Its power to
bring about these changes. If for no other
reason that they may count on China as
an ally to preserve the- peaoe in the
future. With China developed along eub
stantlally the same lines that have made
Japan so strong It la not to be believed- that
aggression would be seriously contem
plated by foreign natlqns. We would then
join wis greai lainuy or nations in com
merce and manufactures and become i
factor in maintaining peace In the world.
It seems to me that when there is such
a widespread movement In the world In
favor of settling disputes by arbitration
the great nations of the world should be
disposed to welcome so numerous a peo
ple aa the Chinese among the Influences
that will put an end to war aa a method
of determining disputes."
