SCHOOL NOTES.
Todav closed the first half of the
school year and all pupils have been
provided with report cards showing
their work and standing in all their
studies. They are required to taite
cftrd9
to their parents and re
turn them in three days with the pa
rents' signature. Parents should no
fail to eximine these reports carefully
and keep themselves Informed as to
thn work of the pupils and if it is not
Bfitiafnctorv thev should confer with
the teacher.

One of the most serious obstacles to
eooi 6cbool work on the part of some
pupii8 fn the High school this year Is
, he faCt that their parents permit
them to attend dancing cluos and
other social gatherings, sometimes as
I often as once a week, and frequently
I upon evenings In the middle of the
1 week when they should be required to
1 nronara their lessons. This is the
I f - w
I greatest kind of folly and no pupil

I CUrrlng weekly, can give proper at ten

studies in the hope that they may give
sufficient attention to the rest to carry
the work. It ia impossible for the
ordinary pupil lo carry on full high
school work satlstactorlly, whose mind
is filled with anticipations of regular
weekly secial gatherings and it is
earnestly desired that all parents who
desire their children to make satis
factory progress in their ptudies, shall
immediately limit these gatherings to
Friday or Saturday evenings and re
duce their number to what is reason
able. Parents who are indifferent and who
yield too readily to the pupils solici
tation, regardless of the results to
their school work, need not he sur
prised at failures. There is a certain
amount of social life that is reason
able, but, until the pupils are through
school, their school work should re
ceive their main attention, and the
fathers and mothers of this city should
unite In crying down the tendency to
excess along these lines.

II. C. McMaken entertained a party
of ten of his old comrades of company
H. Second Nebraska, at his home Sat
urdav evening. "Hank" was tixty
years old yesterday, but he decideu
that the event could be more appro
priately celebrated on Saturday even
ing, and sent out invitations to that
ff ect.
The following veterans responded
to the call: Captain Isaac Wi ee,
Elias Sage, J- W. Thoma?, Harvey
Sage. S. A. Davis, James Mitchell,
William Gllmore.George Davis, IV'ary
ville, Mo ; Fraok Caldwell and Lieu
tenant J. Q. Gobs, Bellevue. Among
the other guests were A. C. McMaken
and wife of Atchison, Kau., and R O.
Fellows of the Post.
Mrs. McMaken, assisted by Misses
Mattie Rupley, Lillie Thomas and
Hattle McMaken, served a fine repast,
consisting of oysters, salads, cake,
fruit, nuts and other good things too
numerous to mention. In fuct, all
agreed that the hostess and her assist
ants had prepared a supper which, for
completeness, could not have been sur
passed. During the feast the old veterans
discussed reminiscences of the civil
war and the conversation was enjoyed
by both young and old.
One of the guests suggested that, in
view of the fact that there were some
twenty members of old company H in
Cass county, it would be a good plan
to hold an annual meeting.
As a token of friendship and high es
teem, the veterans presented Mr. Mc
Maken with a fine recking chair.
The gueats did not disperse until
quite a late hour, and they thanked
the ho6t and hostess for having been
instrumental in bringing them to
gether upon such u happy occasion.
Thirtieth Weddlus; Anniversary.
The Sokol society gave one of its
members, Andrew Matousch, a very
pleasani surprise Saturday evening
the occasion being the celebration of
the thirtieth anniversary of the wed
ding of Mr. and Mrs. Matousch. All
the ntctssary arrangements for ihe
affair had been made in a quiet way.
unknown to Mr. Matou&ch and his
wife. When the proper time arrived
they were induced to go to the hall,
where they found some 200 people
awaiting them. It is needless to say
that the surprise was complete in
every detail.
An old-fashioned wedding feast was
spread, to which all did ample justice.
Dtncing was one of the principal
amusements of the evening and many
of the o'.d folks were induced to waltz
to the sweet music rendered by the or
chestra. Mr. and Mrs.Matousch each received
a very appropriate present as a token
of the high esteem in which they weie
held. Willian Holly, in a few well
chosen words, presented the former
with a beautiful Sokol emblem pin,
while Mrs. Anton Hudecek, on behalf
of the ladles present, made the pre
sentation of a gold ring to Mrs. Ma
tousch. The happy gathering did not dis
perse until a iate hour, and all ex
pressed themselves os having bhd a

Mr. B incrof t thought it was tne duty
of the police to prevent the whole
sale destruction of windows In empty
n0U8e8f apd asked the city authorities
lo VQ hjm m0re information on the
aubject
The police committee reported w
the council that Policeman T. T. Fry
had been in an intoxicated condition
Saturday evening, January 13, and
that he had done some things at that
time which were not exactly proper
for an officer on duty. The committee
recommended that the council tke
some action ia the matter. Some of
the members were in favor of dismiss
ing the officer, while others thought
he ought to be given an opportunity
to explain. The mayor finally settled
the matter for the present by ordering
Mr. Fry's suspension from duty until
the next regular meeting, when some
definite action will be taken
Mrs. H. D. Travis and Mrs. George
Hay were present and the former
called the attention of tho council to
an old house on Marble street, between
Seventh and E.ghth, which was not
only a flre-tmp and rendezvous for
tramp and bad boys, but was also
liable to fall down at any time. The
l?ouse had not been occupied for about
seven years and was very unsightly
After concluding her remarkp, Mrs
Travis presented a petition, signed by
twelve orouerty owners in that p,rt
of the citv, and asking that the dun
cil take immediate steps to have the
old landmark removed. On mtiou of
Lutz., of the Third, the matter was
referred to the judiciary committee.
Herold, of the claims committee,
recommended that the $1 claim of
F. J. Morgan for a large box be al
lowed and the finance committee was
instructed to that effect.
The report of tho finance committee
was adopted and the warrants were
ordered drawn for the diffetent
claims against the city.
The matter of paving taes was
brought up by Hinshaw and Fitzger
ald. It was shown that there were a
number of property owners on Maiu
and Sixth streets who were not paying
their share of the paving tax A mo
tion was made and carried to have the
city attorney look the matter up from
a legal standpoint.
Sidewalk matters were next in or
der. Herold asked that a crossing nt
Granite and Tenth streets ba raUed,
and this work, together with the re
pairing of the cinder walk just south
of the Columbian school, were em
bodied in one motion and ordered
done.
Buttery reported that there was a
sidewalk at Twelfth and Main streets
which had been thrown over an em
bankment and was necessarily doing
no good. He thought the walk could
be replaced at comparatively little
cost and made a motion that the street
commissioner be instructed accord
ingly. Carried.
Fitzgerald reported that the Burl
ington official have had the sewer
near the depot repaired and that it
wan t,ow in crood condition at that
point. In regard to the fewer matter,
Hinshaw thought it would be a good
plan to have someone go through the
sewer and ascertain if it is in good re
nair. Sattler volunteered to do tnis
and the subj9Ct was dropped
On motion of Lutz, Third ward, the
clerk waa instructed to advertise for
bids for building sldowalks which had
been ordered built at previous meet
ings. The report of Superintendent Boyer
or the light station, giving a list of
those who were using more and larger
lights than they were paying for, was
read by Clerk Kerr. It was a lengthy
list and contained the names of many
prominent business men. On motion
of Whelan, the c'.ork was ordered to
make the correction on his books and
collect accordingly.
Sattler addressed the council at con
siderable length upon a very import
ant subject the light fund. He said
a great many people had a mistaken
conception of the condition of the
city's light fund. While the funds
for this purpose were running some
what behind, he thought that, if the
council and the management at the
light station would work together in
harmony, it would only be a question
of timo when the city would catch up
in this matter. He thought that
merchants and business men who were
now using gasoline lamps could be in
duced to use gas or electric lights, if
they could be assured of satisfactory
service. He made a motion to have
the clerk make out an itemized state
ment of the city's expenses in this re
spect, and that the same be pub.ishcd
in one of the daily papers. Carried.
Considerable discussion was ind ulged
in as to the advisability of purchasing
additional transformers, and, nnauy.

animous vote of the members

purchase a 100-light transformer
