Council Bluffs
Ground waa broken Frtay fur the
construction of tna nn addition to the
Auditorium building that will house the
com dhow feature. The addition la being
constructed according to plana formed lorat
time mo but ainca slightly modified, it
will cover the remainder of the auditorium
plat on the eaat not occupied by the
original building. It will be thirty feet wide
and 100 feet long, and will tbua afford 3,000
aquara feet of floor area on the street level
with accompanying wall apace for display
of the aeed corn exhlblta. Tha new sddl-
l tlon will be connected with tha main build
tng by tha five twenty-four foot arches that
were- constructed and bricked In on the
eaat wail when the main building waa
erected. All that will be necessary will be
to knock off the brick when the finished
archea will appear.
Tha modified plain call for a combination
concrete, piaster and wood structure of
single story height. Instead of the two
tory brick building originally, planned
It will ba so constructed, however, that
tha additional floor can be added with
little expense. The only purpose of this
extra floor whs for use aa a lecture room
i during the meetings of the National Hortl
cultiuaJ congress, where the speaking pro
gram could be carried out without the In
terruptiorie that have marred the official
sessions during the last two expositions.
Other arrangements will be made to provide
a suitable lecture hall for tha program of
tha horticultural experts who will be at the
exposition this year.
Plan for Stock Shows.
Tna new addition will have a concrete
floor constructed with special reference to
drainage) and washing with hose, for the
primary purpose of tha new building 4s to
afford tha promised accommodations for
lira stock shows. Many of tha stockhold
ers In tha auditorium building are farmers,
who have so far been unable to add the
stock pavilion featurea In which they are
most Interested. The plans are to have
'some stock shows perhaps during the win
ter, but "certainly early in the spring.
Superintendent Reed and his corps of
busy assistants are almost submerged by
tha flood of correspondence that ie com
ing in to them from all directions In rela
tion to tha combined corn show and fruit
exposition. Spaces for exhibits have been
reserved1 from about forty slates and by the
time tha exposition Is ready to open It ap
pear probable that every state In the union
will have representative exhibits. Canada
and Mexico will be again pitted against
each other in tha same strong but friendly
rivalry that they engaged in last year.
with tha advantages very much In favor of
Mexico this time on account of tha serious
damage done to Canadian fruit crops by
tha frigid weather last spring. Canada Is
anxious to make a redeeming showing and
will gather fruit from all sections of the
dominion and bring It to the exposition,
, while Mexico Is bent on showing the diver
sity of horticultural products in the vast
l 1 country where frosts are unknown
Several of tha southern states which were
not represented last year will bo on hand
with Mr axhlhita this Tear. Prof. F. P.
Williams, neftd of tha Alabama Polytechnic
Institute at Auburn, sent a letter to Super-
Intendant Reed which arrived yesterday,
aaylng that his state would have a general
exhibit In charge of the commissioner of
agriculture, In addition to the numerous pri
vate' exhlblta. This assures exhibits from
. all off tha gulf and southern states.
Indian Creek
to Be Bound in
by Concrete Walls:
Improvement! Started that Will Add
Thousands of Dollar in Value to
Property of the City.
The channel of Indian creek from Bryant
street to the Northwestern railway was
officially fixed yeKterday for the first time
In the history of the turbulent stream.
Nature gave over the attempt to fix It
boundaries and permitted It to wander
vagrantty where ,lt chose or found the
least resistance, but the city council yes
terday, In committee of the whole, of
ficially prescribed the channel it shall here
after use, and took the first steps to en
force the orders by having the channel
defined by reinforced concrete walla.
The channel begins at Bryant with a
width of twenty-four feet, and widens to
twenty-six feet at Mynster street, at
Scott street It broadens to thirty feet and
at Sixth street it la given thirty-four feet;
the widening process continues until a
breadth of thirty-six Is attained at Klghtb
street, which Is further Increased to forty
two feet for the remainder of Its long
course to the river.
The widening process Is due to the fact
that the banks become lower as the grade
becomes flatter and the channel Is thus
given the required area all of the way.
The council met to consider the petition of
Adotph Beno and others for the establish
ment of official lines to permit the con
struction of concrete retaining walls In the
block on North Main street and Scott
street. City Engineer Ktnyre accompanied
the alderman equipped with a large blue
print of the surveys showing the newly
established lines. The boundaries go
straight between Main and Scott street
adding several feet to the northern ends
of all the lots In the block. A slight curve
Is made between Scott and Sixth street.
adding about four feet to the depths of
the business lots fronting on Broadway,
nd this, too, without- taking anything
from the property lines on the . op
posite side of the stream. The council of
ficially approved the plat as a committee
of the whole and it will be finally ap
proved In the meeting next Monday night.
The Beno company and other property
owners In the block will at once begin the
construction of a retaining wall twenty
feet high, and it la believed that the prop
erty owners in the block between Scott and
Sixth street will follow their example. J.
Slinonds & Co., owners of the Central
grocery store property, will begin the con
struction of tho wall through the block
between Sixth and Seventh streets, and it
now looks as if the creek would be confined
In solid walla throughout Its course In the
heart of the city. The improvement will
add thousands of dollars value to all of the
business property and permit the extension
of buildings In some Instances nearly fifty
feet further bark.
During the session of the committee the
communication submitted by City Solicitor
Kimball at the last meeting of the council
advising the aldermen that the city was
liablo for water service furnished by the
waterworks to all public buildings, parks,
etc, was considered. It waa referred to the
committee on water, composed of Alder
men Younkerman and Fisher, with Instruc
tions to meet Manager Hart of the water
company and endeavor to efCect some set
tlcment of the claims arid report to the
council. City Solicitor Kimball was added
to the committee as Its advisor in tha ne
gotiations.
A reuuest by the promoters of the Pure
Food show to have the streets Illuminated
while the exposition was in progress was
received and will be considered Monday
night.

In police court yesterday morning the

was that he was drunk and did not remem
ber anything about the transaction. He
admitted that the name he gave, Frank
Johnson, might fit anybody else as well as
himself, but said he was an engineer and
his home was in Denver. The police be
lieve he is a professional yeggman who at
tempted a one-man Job. The fact that he
was an entire stranger in the city but knew
the number of the police station tele
phones Is a disclosure that classes him
among the professionals, all of whom keep
fully posted on police station signals and

which expects to conclude its labors today.
At the mass meeting, called for Sunday
afternoon at the First Baptist church to
consider the new Young Woman's Chris
tian association movement, there will
positively be no collection taken or sub
scriptions asked for. The meeting is
wholly for' the purpose of discussing the
various phases of the movement and to
secure an Interchange of ideas among ths
bright-ldeaed young women, and auto for
the purpose of acquainting the general
public more fully with the alms and house
of the organisation. The calling of the
meeting thus Implies a general Invitation to
all classes of people, men aa well as women
of all agea. It Is ln such meetings that
Interest can be aroused sufficient to In
crease the membership Hat to the desired
1 two. An evidence of the intensity of the
seal with which the young women are
working waa seen yesterday In many of
the store windows of tiie city, where
artistic posters, sketched In Ink and water
colors advertising tho Sunday afternoon
meeting, were placed. Each poster repre
sented a lot of skillful toll on the part of
the young women, and many of them were
real works of art. The workers expected to
have a good many more of the posters
reedy for hanging early yesterday but the
task proved too great.

Omaha as a storage center.
The party which made the inspection yes
terday conslst-d of W. H. Uucholt, chair
man of the Commercial club's committee
on wool warehouse; Luther Drake and J.
M. Guild. This business has almost been
growing unheralded, and (he Idea of "Fri
day's visit by the Commercial club men
was to secure accurate Information as to
Just the extent of the Industry in order
tl7at the club may boost It more Intelligently.
While sheep have been breaking all rec
ords by the way they have been pouring
into the South Omaha market, wool has
also been coming along at 4 rapid clip,
putting Omaha back on the map as the
Wool center of the country.
A committee on the Omaha Commercial
tluh j-es'e.ilMy s.fitM.'Hn visited the ware
house of tha Omaha Wool and Storage
company at Twenty-eighth aud GoM"
streets and found the building filled almost
to Its rapacity. They were greatly im
pressed with the progress which this In
dustry, comparatively an Irfant one, has
made.
Tbe company, which Is headed by C. M.
King, with J. A. Delfelder of Wooltoni
Wyo., as'vlce president and Leslie M. King
as general manager, was formed a little
less than three years ago, most of the
stock being held by western wool growers
and Omaha business men.
From the first It has flourished, and on
Friday the huge bulldfng, which measures
300 feet In length, 100 feet In width and 24
feet in height, contained nearly 3,000,000
pounds of wool. It Is expected that before
the close of the receiving season, about
October 1. the entire capacity of the ware
house, 6,000,000 pounds, will be exhausted.
Mr. Delfelder, vice president of the com
pany, who Is also president of the Wyo
ming Wool Growers' association and vice
president of the national association, Is
most enthusiastic about the chance of
Omaha becoming the wool market of the
west. Said he:
