OFFICIALS ARE UP IN ARMS tnr Ibe harter Hill Was Sot Passed In Kny Manner as It Had B Aavreed I pun or as Com mittee Fipected. City hsll officials and f-a.mers of the Mil for the revision of the city charter ere up In arms over the action of the house In passliiK tbc charter bill with a lot of amendments which were not agreed to be forehand. The bill, which was passed with three dissenting votes, tears section 3 of the pro posed revision all to pieces. While there are many minor changes the two most Im portant are those which take away the privilege of changing the character of pav ing of any street In the city and that wlilch eliminates the poer of the city council to Older slicUs paved without petition, ac ' curding to City Kngineei I'rulg. "With the bill It was passed by the hou.--e the council cannot order any street raved In the city. Hereafter all paving will have lo be done by petition," said Mr. Owls', "and It will be impossible to change the paving of any street. These conditions were niad possible by the amendments think 7,0ii0 'feet Is too great, some district with a much less radius should be created." Mayor Dahlman. who was one of the committee of three that framed the bill, stated Friday morning . that he was sur prised at the action of the house In chang ing the bill materially. "The only amend ments agreed on were those relating to the gathering1 and disposal of garbage and bom minor changes where words were to be Inserted to make the section more spe cific." said he. "But these amendments striking out cer tain portions of the bill are In line with what might have been expected. 1 guess when the senate gets through cracking that bill no one will ever recognize It." Neither Mayor Dahlman, City Attorney Rlne or Councilman Beika, who composed the original committee, know anything about the changes. But they were all busy around the city hall Friday morning con ferring with other officials of the city. LAND SHOW CREATES AN INTEREST IN LAND BOOKS Rood le of Literature Pertalalaar to .and Caltare.

Starr stalled mandamus proceedings In Judge Day's court to force Michaelsen to Inspect the wiring that he had placed In two houses. Judge Day de cided against him last week and he Imme diately brought ault to compel the Issuance of a license. Judge Kennedy found that the refusal of the board was arbitrary in that the complaint against Starr was that he conducted his business In an unsatis factory manner and that there was no proof of Incompetency. lion "No doubt In Its eagerness to cut the limits down from 7.000 feet, a radius within which the revision bill Kve the council power to order street Improvements, the bouse went further than It anticipated. There ba beeu much objection to the pro Msicn which increases the limit t.&OO feet Instead of striking out the figures 7.000 and Insetting 4. 500 . therein, the amendment ttrlkus o'U t'uj -whole provision. This means that the city council cannot order any tin pt (Armenia whatever, as the bill repeals that portion of the old charter which marks the limits l.rA) feet." The amendment also strikes out all of that provision which provides for the rhanglNK of paving In any district. Here tofore the paving of atiy street could be changed by a petition signed by three fifths of the record owners of the frontaije of taxable property. Hereafter whenever lieet Is paved, and this can be done only while In almost every case where no land has been purchased they contemplate doing so. The traveling men from the eastern states are some of the most Interested pur chasers. It has turned the eye of the city boys to the farm, as witnessed by th-lr interest."

I. Root, Incorporated. The directors of the Hangchow Presbyterian college recog nized the fine quality of this Omaha firm's work and sent direct here an order for a twenty-page illustrated prospectus.

The mark of excellent quality and superior craftsmanship Is characteristic of the product. Already the work has been com pleted and mailed directly back to China. H was published by the Franklin Publish ing company of Omaha. The book Is illustrated with exquisite copper plate half-tones which show In vivid detail the fine work that was done on the photographs. The copper plates for the book were made by Baker Bros.' Kngraving company and are all that could be demanded for the best publication. The photographs from which the half-tones were made were taken In China. They are clear and bring out the small effects In the scenes to great advantage, showing that photography Is very far advanced in the orient. One of the views, which shows a group of the buildings of the college at a time when a storm Is hovering over the Hangchow river, details beautifully all ob jects In the prospect.
