day. The Fraternal Order of Eagles met Tues
day evening and decided on the purchase
of the First Methodist church at Twenty-
third and N streets, where the new Eagle
hall for the city of South Omaha la to be
erected. This purchase will Include the
parsonage. The price paid was 17,600. The
church will give possession at once and
will erect a new building In the northern
section of the city.
The negotiations for the church have
been In progress for over two weeka, and It
was a matter of general dlacusHlon among
the members and It waa agreed that this
property waa the most feasible for the site
of a new hall.
The dimensions of the new hall have
been made publlo and will be ample to ac
commodate the large fraternal order. -The
membership In South Omaha Is over 700
and they are well able to build a fine
building. The fund In the treasury Is at
present sufficient to purchase the new. site
and leave a fair balance to apply on the
building itself. The parsonage will prob
ably be sold soon and will be removed.
Rev. J. M. Bothwell is to have possession
of the parsonage until November.
Packing; House Unshed.
One of the buslnest places In South
Omaha Is the new hog house ot the Cud
ahy Packing company. vThe contractors are
straining every nerve to get the building
completed by September 1. At that time,
or as near thereafter as possible, the new
plant will be put In operation. The loca
tion of the new plant is such that It will
save a long drive of the animals and thus
be a great convenience and economy,
Many hogs die annually because of the long
drive through the chutea.
The heavy machinery of the plant la now
being installed and the interior floora are
being laid and made sanitary, after ap
proved modern methods.
The exterior haa already a finished ap
pearance and . the hog chutea are con
structed, ready for operation.
As soon as the date can positively be
aet the company proposes to extend invita
tions for the grand opening.
History of Bonds Prepared.
The city clerk has a great task on hand
at present preparing a history of the
bond Issue for Spltser & Co. of
Toledo, O. The company recently pur
chased a block of bonds amounting to J2(Xi,
000. It Is necessary for the clerk to write
up a correct history of the Issue from the
first steps In the proceedings, and this
must be approved by the company. The
task is a long one, because of the numer
ous districts involved.
Golf Contest Saturday.
The Miller Park golfers will pay South
Omaha a visit Saturday afternoon and
play a return game against the South
Omaha Country club. The South Omaha
men defeated the Miller Park men on their
own grounds and they expect to repeat the

the club cafe: The visiting club will have
at least sixteen players and tha play win
begin at 2 p. m. or as soon aa tha oar for
that hour 'arrtves. The South Omaha olub's
