Caterer Italdnff Saagesta Mamie, and
the Matter Rests After Some
Debate as to Summer
Refreshments.
A proposition to purchase a tract of
land of something like forty acres between
Rlverview park and the liver was consid
ered by the park board at the regular
monthly meeting yesterday. J. H. Du
mont, who owns the property, submitted
a price of $'i0 a lot, which would be about
$-'40 an acre, and $5 for lots under water, to
secure the riparian rights. It was esti
mated that the purchase price would-be
from $10.(W) to $13,ouO, according to Mr. Du-
mont's figures. It not being definitely known
how much land there Is In the tract. Com
missioners Cornish and I.lnlnger spoke In
favor of the extension, saying that it is
the only possible way to give the park a
frontage on the river and thus prevent
factories and nuisances to be erected on
the space. The Burlington tracks run be
tween the park and the section which Is
under consideration. The matter was placed
In the hands of the committee on the deslg
nation of nroperty to consult with south
side residents and the Bouth Omaha Park
board. Commissioner Llninger cherishes a
scheme of connecting Syndicate park, South
Omaha, with Rlverview y water, and he
wants to see If this can't be arranged some
how.
Ilanaeora Park's Popularity.
The commissioners discussed ways and
means to popularise Hanscom park durlrlg
the summer, but reached no conclusions
Commissioner Gonden favored dancing ln
the pavilion, but this was frowned upon
by other members. W. 8. Balduff, who has
had the refreshment concessions for sev
eral years, said the only unobjectionable
attraction he knew of Is good music, adding
that good music Is very expensive. Mr.
Balduff satd he had half of $130 to turn
over to the board as half of the net profits
of last year's business. The street railway
company refused to contribute to the cost
of music ln the park and he hnd no propo
sition to make regarding the privileges,
although he announced he would like to
continue to see what he could sell. Com
missioner Gonden said another man wa
willing to make an offer and It was de
cided to advertise for bids.
West Stders Want Help.
A committee of west side citizens, headed
by County Attorney Slabaugh, E. A. Ben
son and J. W. Robblns, appeared to urge
the macadamizing of Dodge street, from
Forty-first west to Dundee, which they
have long said needs the Improvement very
much. They were told that money appro
priated by the county to pay for the work
Is available and that just aa soon as the
street railway company can be Induced to
either shove Its tracks to one side or to
agree to pave between the rails, the board
would proceed to have a sixteen-foot strip
of macadam laid and compressed by its
young, proud road roller.
Messrs. Benson and Robblns reported that
they had worn out several pairs of shoes
trying to get the street railway people to
do something with a wholly minus result.
President Llninger finally appointed a
Joint committee composed of Commissioners
Craig, Gonden, McWhorter, Robblns and
Benson, to talk business to the street rail
way company on the strength of a very
firm resolution worded by Commissioner
Cornish, and to Invite consultation on May
S, when a special meeting of the board will
be held.
Wet Park at Cat Off.
Joe Redman appeared and made a few
passes concerning the necessity of a "wet
park" around the western shores of Cut
Off lake. Mr. Redman declared that "dry
parks" are no longer liked by the people.
He found several commissioners agreeing
with him and Mr. Cornish proposed tho
filling ln of the-south end of the lake near
Locust street with dirt dredged from the
lake further north and the creation of a
park on the western shore, taking in Just
enough of the bluff tract to permit a view
spot. Commissioner Craig said the en
gineering department Is working on such
a plan now. Aa It was connected with the
route of the north boulevard he could not
report on the latter Just yet.
At the request of W. L. Gilmore and 8.
Arlon Lewis, a barbed wire fence around
part of Elmwood park was ordered taken
down and a "humane" fence substituted.
It waa decided to' allow lodges and fra
ternal order holding picnics at Rlverview
park to dance ln the pavilion, provided
good order was maintained.
A CONF1DERTIAI. CHAT.
" It's perfect nonsense, Bessie, for you to
talk of being laid on the shelf. Why, it all
depends on yourself. Forget yoor worries,
your aches and ailments ; do as I did, take
plenty of out-of-door air, cultivate happi
ness by not allowing yonr mind to dwell
on the trifles and the worries of life. I sent
thirty-one cents in stamps to Dr. R. V.
Pierce, of Buffalo. N. Y.. for his 'Common
Sense Medical Adviser,' and found it con
tained much useful inforsostion about the
care of my health, ibout physiology, anat
omy, and everything a woman should know.
I then decided to write Dr. Pierce and tell
him all sbont my ailments. I received
such a nice, carefully considered and con
deutial letter, in reply, giving me advice
about my diet, exercise and all. This
advice is free to everyone and I wonder you
don't write him at once. It didn't take me
many months to regain my good looks.
Ever since I was fifteen I have suffered
untold agonies periodically but now I am
free from pain, worry and bad temper. Oc
casionally I took Dr. Pierce s Pleasant
Tellets this for the complexion, and to
stimulate the liver. Then I took Dr.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription three times
a day for those womanly weaknesses
I told yon about That's mv secret of
beauty. It'e the easiest thing in the world
to be heppy and keep one's good looks.
Look at the thousands of women who have
been made well by Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription; look how they keep their
?ood looks. Dr. Pierce offers $w reward
or any esse of Leucorrbea, Female Weak
ness, Prolapsus, or Falling of Womb which
he cannot cure. All he asks is a fair and
reasonable trial of his means of cure."

Announcements of ther Thenters.
One of the really bright spots in the
present theatrlcnl season Is the coming of
Henrietta Crosman In her delightful
comedy of the love of Nell Gwyn and
Charles II of England. This Introduces
the greatest of America's comediennes In
a characte- that gives her the most
ample scope for her talent. It has been
said that her wearing of small clothes and
a sword and her fencing scene at the
ball, where she commits high treason by
drawing her sword on the king Is one of
the finest scenes ever offered on the stage.
It will be presented at the Boyd on Thurs
day and Friday evenings, and at a matinee
on Saturday. On Saturday evening Miss
Crosman will offer a double bill, "Nance
Oldfleld" and Madeline."
The regular Thursday matinee at the
Orpheum today Is the only attraction at
the theaters this afternoon. Fascinating
little Delia Fox, who Is proving one of
the season's big drawing cards Is the head
line feature. Beven other varied features
are on the program. Including that es
pecially attractive production for chil
dren, Paul Powell's 'tnarionettes. The
miniature stage on which the manikins
perform many Interesting and cute
"stunts" Is very elaborate In scenic em
bellishment, the'closlng sjtene with TTs beau
tiful electric fountain and other effects
jetng decidedly attractive.
"Escaped From 81ngSing" will be the
attraction at the Krug theater for the re
mainder of this week, starting tonight.
This sensational melodrama Is pronounced
to be one of the beat of its class, and is
said to be presented with an attention to
detail, ln point of equipment and cast,
quite unusual ln popular priced theaters.
The scenery is excellent. The scene of the
flowing Hudson river by moonlight and
the escape from the prison, is most real
istic and Is bne of the several accom
plishments ln the scenic effects. There
will be the usual matinee on Saturday.

The progress of the movement for the
pnvlng of Twenty-fourth street, from Leav
enworth to Vinton, was the principal ob
ject of discussion at the meeting last night
of the Southwest Improvement club. Lively
discussion of the difficulties to be met and
suggestions for overcoming them marked
the session.
Chairman Schamcl of the committee on
petitions reported that signatures had been
obtained which represented 1,330 feet of
property abutting the street to be paved.
A number of citizens had promised their
signature, and he would get them in the
next few days. He thought there were
only a few men who would hold out long
against the proposed Improvements. Two
citizens were reported as having made
the statement that they would not sign
without perfect assurance thnt the street
would have a car line. Members of the
committee will endeavor to make their
minds ensy on this subject.
Referring to the need of water hydrants
in the district. Councilman Dyball said it
had come to a question of going Into the
courts If the water company Is to be com
pelled to extend the mains. The company
will not make these extensions, as It does
not see where the money for them Is com
ing from. In the same connection a com
mittee composed of Messrs. Haller, Green
and Dyball, was appointed to Investigate
current water rates ln other cities and
make a report to the club. The Idea -for
this Is that the club ought to put itself
on record as favoring a reduction If It
can prove existing rates too high.
Mr. Dyball reported that he had fixed
the location of a number of the new arc
lights allotted to the district. The chair
appointed Messrs. Peterson, Palmer and
Ennts to make recommendations for the
location of the remainder.
Complaint was made that the stroet com
missioner has not cleaned up certain streets
as he had promised to dot Mr. Dyball was
requested to see If he could Influence that
official.
a motion was passed not to allow Indorse

Takes Firm Stand on Employ,
nient of Solicitors.
The Charities Indorsement committee held
a short business session yesterday with
Members Burket, Hospe, Slabaugh, Lewis
and Sunderland and Secretary Morris ln

mittee against the employment of profes
sional solicitors by charitable Institutions.

plication for the Indorsement of an in

DENVER PAVES WITH STONE
Tear Vp Asphalt to Pot Down
Belgian Block Becanse of
Wear.
Thomas A. Fry got a few Ideas sbout pav
ing during his visit to Denver. He is tell
ing his friends and any other persons who
should ask him, that while in the Colorado
capital he saw asphalt pavement as good
or better than any asphalt on the down
town streets except the new Sixteenth sur
face, ripped up to muk-e way for Belgian
block paving.
"On Eighteenth street," says Mr. Fry,
"they tore up thlc asphalt that was net
r early as worn oul aa much of ours to re
place it with stone.. They say U costs so
much to keep it up and it Is so unsatisfac
tory that they find It cheaper to get rid of It
at once than to keep it in condition. Eigh
teenth is the street along whloh most of the
heavy trucking is done. They don't believe. In
asphalt for the business streets, and I think
we make a mistake In putting It down here.
A well laid stone pavement Is much better
and It does not wear out."
Mr. Fry found the Denver people were
laying disintegrated granite on the less im
portant residence streets and making a
splendid macadam. They get the rock by
blasting and as It comes ln rough cubes,
it forms a very lasting surface when rolled
down Into the sort of ground on 'which
Denver is built. Mr. Fry Is of the opinion
such paving would be of no use ln Omaha
with lta rich and bottomless loam.
The city Is preparing for a revolution in
the lighting system, according to Mr. Fry.
Henry Rustln la there and the city Is to be
relighted with lncandescents, doing away
with the arc light. He found the papers
full of the subject oj Denver's prospect for
future brilliancy. ,
