Failure on the part of the owners of the Maoe livery barn on Cass street, burned, together with seventeen horses, early Tues day morning, to clean up the premise, and remove the filth resulting from the fire, has caused the health department to take action and a large crew of men Friday ren ovated the premises and cleared away the debris. Health Commisrioner Conwll Is not In the city, but his assistant. Dr. R. P. Jensen, served several pre-emptory notices to clean up. but no attention was paid to them, with the exception of the hauling away by Thut.uay night the laat carcase. Friday morning Mayor Dahlman Instructed the acting health commissioner to clean up the premiaea at once. Difficulty waa had in aecurlr men to do the disagreeable work, and failing in an effort to get city pris oners to do It, Btreet Commissioner Flynn offered his force In the emergency and the street cleaning crew put in the afternoon cleaning up the debris and scattering lime to renovate the odoriferous premises. The crew waa instructed to tear down the walla left standing after the fire, the city coun cil in apecial session In the morning con demning the building. The cost of cleaning up the Mace fire debrie will have to be met temporarily by the city, but It will be taxed against the rani estate. i mm V 'S The Heel Tendon The most powerful cord in the foot and in constant action.

C1ROS.SET "Jfalccs Lifes WalkEasy 4 WADSWORTH WILL GO v WEST Probably Will Accept Call ta Flrat Pre.bylerl.a Charch of Paeblo. P.ev. Guy W. 'WadBworth, D. D.. presi dent of Bellevue college, probably will ac cept the call to become pastor of the First Presbyterian church of Pueblo, Colo. He is out of the city on "business Just now and cannot be Interviewed as to his intentlona. Friends in Omaha believe there la no doubt of Ms accepting the call and laying down the work at Bellevue at the close of the present scholastic year. w The Pueblo church Is one of the largest and moat Influential In the state of Colo rado and Its pastorate is one of the big ministerial offlcea of the west. Ir. Wadsworth came to Bellevue nearly three years ago. He resigned the presi dency of Occidental coUeg. Loa Angeles, where be had been for eleven years, to accept the' Bellevue position, which had been unsuccessfully administered since Dr. Kerr's resignation a year previoua. Already talk of Dr. TVadiworth's suc cessor is current and one man mentioned for the place Is an able and popular Pres byterian mlnlater who apent several years as paator of an Omaha church and la now occupying a larger rulpit thaji the one he had here. It la 'believed that with aome reorganisation In the board of trustees at Bellevue he would accept the place. The future of Bellevue college is regardel aa bright, tor the reason that lta identifi cation as an Omaha Institution gives it prestige and advantages over many of the small colleges of the west.

Corn is being rushed to Omaha nowadays at the rate of 350 to X cars a day, and i. being hurried on to Chicago to get the bonofit of the prevailing high price, being paid in that city. J a me. L. Patten of Chicago is said to control the corn mar ket and to have a corner, keeping the price up to 7?fe cents a bushel, at which price It cloaed Thursday night. The farmera of the west are getting the advartsge 'of this high market, and al though It was reported that a greater part of th. grain had been shipped from the state, the farmers are findir time be tween time of planting corn, to haul load after load to the country elevators. It is then shipped Into Omaha and hurried on to Chicago to get th. benefit of the prevailing high prices. Th. farmer waa th. wise one who re fused to let all his corn go last fall at the low prices which then existed, but . held back some of it, until now he is getting from 60 to 66 cents delivered at the country elevator. Kot Trrlaa- to Break for.tr.' RaUroad men deny that they are in any waa aasistlr.g to break the corner in com. They say th. com is conv.ng in and has been for a week and that they are making as quick delivery to Chicago as posaible. They do thla, not to break any corner, but to render as good service to shippers as possible. "It stands to reaaon that the Chicago Omaha line which can give the best aerviee between Omaha and Chicago will get the meat business and that Is what we are after." said one prominent railroad man. "The ahlppera want us to get the corn over there as quickly ss possible, that it may be sold at the top of the market. Mani festly it Is to our advantage to work with the shippers in this instance." "While w are all profiting by the Ce mand for corn and the high price, it is the farmer who waa far-atghted enough to hold hi. corn, who is making the big money," aald a grain man. "It pays well to raise corn when the farmer can get from to 6i cents a bushel and that 1. what he is getting today for all th. com he can haul to market." During the last week the Burlington har hauled about loO car. of com from Omaha and Council Bluffs to Chicago, the North western M0 cars, the Rock Island about forty earn, and other roads a large number of cars, but the corn la now coming in faster than at any time this spring and all th. roads are preparing to handle a large number of cars. FOUNTAINS WILL BE TAPPED Water la to Flow at Last, for the Water Board la Galas to Meet. Public fountains will yet send forth water. The memorial water fountain at the Inter section of Capitol avenue and Seventeenth Btreet, which was put in place a year ago, has never had a drop of water in it except what haa rained in. This has also been the case with the six drinking foun tains donated by Mrs. Levi Carter. The city has connected all of them with the mains, the cost of connecting the memo lial fountain alone being $200. The water board signed the contract for water, but no water was forthcoming? After watting several months, th. hu mane society took the matter up with the city engineering department to see If t.he fountains could not be made useful as well as ornamental. This department no tified the water board that the fountains had been connected, but the board issued no order on the company to hsve the water turned on, believing the contract was suf ficient. Officials of the- som pany now say, however, that they will not turn on the water until they hav. an explicit order to that effect from the board. Secretary Kocnig. of the board, says that this order wall be issued when the board meets in its next regular seaalon the first Wednesday in June. If the weather becomes unbearably warm before that date a special aeasion will be called foi the explicit purpoae of l.suing the order. ROADS FIX ROLLING STOCK Western t.lnr. Ba.lly Eagnae Fatting- Eaalpntent Into Shan, for Heavy Bn.lae... Railroad, in the west are busily engaged putting their -rolling stock in the best poa sible condition to be ready for heavy busi ness. Th Union Psclfic has nearly 200 looomotlves out of commission, and an ef fort is being made to have each of these put In the best of condition. "Now is the tim. to get this rolling stock in shape for the busineas which will aoon open up," said an operating official. "At least we hope it will open up soon. At one place on the line of the Vnion Pacific orders hav. been received to place the long line of locomotivea which are filling th. sidetrack., in condition within th. next thirty daya. EVERY DAY TO BE SIGN DAY City Prooeewtor Will Keep On Try lag; to Enforce the New Ordinance. Every day will be a:gn day in police court for th. next week or ten days, or until the city prosecutor has enforced the new ordinance against maintaining signs on posts and iron pillars in front of stores and offlcea. Charged with maintaining signs on poles of the Ptrwt Railway company, warrants were issued for John J. Wilson. Robert B. Marble. H, W, AJlwine and Ernest L. Alexander, whofce signs swing gracefully from poles at Sixteenth and Douglas streets. P. T. Barber and G. D. WerU. who have signs at Sixteenth and Farnanv streets, were charged with th. same of fens.. "I will file six or aeven complaints each day until I get them all." said City Prose cutor Daniel. "1 have been securing tb. names and have about eighty. Ther. 1. no use In trying to bring eighty people into court at a time, but they will get in a few each dsy until they pay th penalty for violating the ordinances of the city In regard to maint&tng signs." JOY TO PROPERTY OWNERS Derision of .apreme Conrt on I.ltigma tlen of Taxes Make. Many Happy. By affirming a decision of Judg. Button, holding that void taxes can be litigated on the confirmation of sale In scavenger cases, the supreme court has brought joy' to a number of property owners whose real estate haa been sold for taxes. Th. de cision was in the case of th. Parker Real Estate company against A. C. Davidaoa. Davidaon bought the tax certificate on aome property belonging to the plaintiff. The latter objected to confirmation, claiming the right to have excluded from the amount of taxes represented in the certificate some sidewalk taxes which had been declared void by the courts. Judge Button decided this could b. done whea th. question of confirming th. sal. came up. The defend ant took the case to th. supreme court and won. Th. decision Is said t. affect aoout MO caacc in which objection to confirmation hav. been filed because of alleged rol4 taxrs. Tbat Day.
