nual visit to Omaha, showing at the

feature of tha evening was tha attendance
of tha wool growers of the oountrv, who
were there as tho guests of the Omuha
Commercial club.
President Cole, Commissioner Guild,
Members Pickens, Judson. liucklngbain,
Hugo Brandels, C. C. Rusewator, Uaxter
and others of tha executive commit toe
and a number of leading members of the
club ware on hand to receive, the guests

waa aurely a iucceai. Il delayed tha rise
of tha curtain for aome minutes, but the

company, chorua and all. imbued with
tha spirit of the evening, for each wore
a badge of Omaha'a welcome to i, tha

of the play would permit tha conversation

Recital by Karri llavlicek.
Last night at tba First Uaptlst Church,
Mr. Karel Havlloek gave a violin recital.
It la always a pleasure to pay a
deserved tribute to tha faithful and
conscientious work of a, young musical
aspirant who baa been, brought up In
Omaha, who has made the most of his
advantages locally, luu gone abroad for
further serious study, tind who has re
turned to lieva his fellow-cltlsans pass
Judgment upon hlui and hi work. Sev
eral Instances of this huve occurred
recently and Omaha may be justly proud
Of Its younger branch of tha profvsslon.
Mr. Karel Havllcrk Is the latest of the
successful venturers. He ha worked
earnestly, he has worked faithfully, and
ha has achieved a great deal. Ha has
accomplished much In the way of secur
ing good tons-quality throughout tha far
stretches nf ths violin's compass and
range. He has a good sense of style
and "form" In his work and his
teahnlqua la a demonstration of many
hours of hard and unremitting labor. In
aonalderatlon of the many brilliant things
ha did, ha may ba forgiven for perpetrat
ing that unspeakable monstrosity for
violin alone, the Sextette for Lucia; tlia
deviser, or arranger, Mr. ft. Lubln
should ba un-caaonlsed and tha 8t. taken
from his name. Has this sextette ever
been arranged for cymbal onlyf
However, tha IaIo Hymphonle made up
for tha latter mentioned "piece," and the
other numbers on the program were well
worth place. Tha three Uuxmester ar
rangements struck a popular chord with
the audience.
Mr, Hevllcek may feel justly proud of
his progresa and It Is for him now to
go on and climb tha heights.
Ulas Louisa Ormsby contributed two
groups of vocal numbers with her usual
success, and aha emphasised tha good
opinion already expressed la this column,
especially on account of her excellent
enunciation and her musical feeling.
Madam Augusta Dorglum had an ex
ceedingly difficult evening a work, and
aha arose ta tba occasion with her cus
tomary ability t. aha waa mora than tu
oompanlat, and did her trying planlstio
part with well balanced judgment. K.

SIX IDA GROVE MEN WILL
SPEND CHRISTMAS ABROAD
BIG BRIDGE OVER HELL GATE
Two years from next sprint: the Kast
river will be rpanned by another bridge.
It will bo acroFS Hell Gate, from Long
Island to The lironx, and will sens to
connect tho New Haven & Hartford and
the Pennsylvania systems.
The New York connecting railroad
bridge, as It Is called, will ba reudy in tha
spring of 1S14, according to former Bridge
Commissioner Uu.itav Llndeiithal, who
designed the structure with Palmer &
Hornbcstel. In It New York will' see one
of the most massive bridges In the world.
With viaducts It will be three miles long
and nearly 100,000 tons of structural steel
will ba required to build It. There are
taller bridges, but heavier span there is
none. It will be uaea exclusively by the
builders, tho Pennsylvania and the New
Haven & Hartford.
There will be three great spans. The
first will connect Long Island City and
Ward's Island, the second Ward's inland
and Randall's Island, and the third Ran
dall's Island and The Bronx.
The span crossing from Long Inland to
Ward'a Island will b the Jargest. This
will be known as the Hell Gate bridge.
It will be of the braced steel arch type
and will resemble a gigantic river gate.
It will also mark the entrance to tha Kast
river from the north.
Two big steel arches 3,000 feet In length
will support the deck. These will rise
to a height of 300 feet above the water.
Tha deck will be 110 feet over tha river,
which la the distance that separates the
old Brooklyn bridge from the water. The
bridge will look llko tha old Brooklyn
bridge turned upside down.
The distance between the towers will
be 1,107 feet, or about one-fifth of a mile.
About 100,000 tons of steel will be required
for the span. Some of the members alone
will weigh 1S5 tons. In this respect the
pan is superior to every other In the
world. j
The bridge crossing the Firth of Forth
In Scotland cornea 'next. This bridge has
two spans of 1,700 feet each and carries
two railroad tracks. .
The Hell Gate span will carry four
tracks embedded In stona ballast, ao there
will be no rumbling noise to disturb sen
sitive nerves.
The towers will be 9)0 feet high. There
will be four of them, two on. each side.
They will be of moulded concrete ma
sonry surmounting ahntments of Cyclo
pean gray granite. Parts of the masonry
work have been completed, while other
parts are still under construction.
Kxcavatlona for tha abutments were
started aome time ago, but it will be
months before they will appear above
the surface. They extend down to bed
rock, which In parts Is 150 feet down in
the bowels of the earth.
On tha Astoria side the piers run down
from 105 to 150 feet. On Ward's Island
rock was found much nearer. Tha Astoria
piers ara on the old Barclay homestead
and not far from scaly rock.
In tha upper parts of tha tower will
ba rooms for switches and other railroad
necessities. About 600,000 cubic yards of
masonry will be 'used.
Tha viaduct will be of solid steel. In
Long Island It will follow a line HO feet
north of Barclay atreet nouUiwe.it ard
to tha Pennsylvania yard at Sunnyslde.
It will pass over Long Island City at a
an average height of alxty feet and will
rest on a scries of concrete arches sup
porting steel girders. Mr. Lindeulhal's
original plan called for an all steel via
duct, but this did not coma up to tha
aesthetlo standard set by the Municipal
Art commission, and the plans were re
jected.
Since then the plans have been changed
to call for concrete land supports, and
other decorative changes sugested by the
coimnUflon for tho span have been made.
From an engineering point of view tho
changes do not alter the bridge as origi
nally planned.
The viaduct acrpsa Ward'a 1 Hand will
also rest on concrete piers. ' ThlA viaduct
will bo 2.000 feet long and will connect
Hell Gate bridge with the ona crossing
Llttlo.Hell Gate to Kandall's Island. Llttlo
Hell gate will be spanned by a riveted
truss bridge 1,000 feet long.
Altogether tho miles of vlaiSurts and
bridges will cost approximately 120,000,000.
Tha Improvement waa started seven years
ago, and has been carried on steadily
ever since. All these years were put In
on the foundation and abutments New

City to Take Appeal
in Carlisle Case
A majority of- the members of the city
council!. Including Mayor MaJone'. have
decided to Instruct City Solicitor Kimball
to appeal the caso of Charles Carlisle
against the city to the supreme court. Tha
case has been tried twice. The ftrst trial
resulted In a verdhtt for tho city, taxing
the costs to tho plainttff. This waa sec
aside and the Issue tried again on an
amended jftition making Contractor K.
A. Wlckham co-defendant with the city
on tho grcsind that the city's responsi
bility was ;scondary if there was any on
the part of either.
During the progress of a heavy storm
two yearn oit more ago the water washed
out a newly filled sewer ditch. Into which
Carlisle drowe, and he lost a horse. The
contention of tho city Is that tho washout
was caused by the excessive, rainstorm
then prevailing that the accident oc
curred during Us progress, before any
body could naive had knowledge of it, and
that the city cannot be held responsible
for tho washout any more than it could
for tha storm.
