Taking for granted that Cvo such blanks are sunt to each district and allowing Cvo thousand districts in the state It would make a to tal for each year of 2,500 blankc. It is very tiuo and artistic printing that can not bo obtained for $10 per than- sand , a pen which basis the cost of the 25,000 blanks would amount to $250 , which Is a pocd fair cstimato for ordinary printing. This would leave a surplus of $750 In this ono Item. The Horn of $1,000 for publishing the school laws Is clearly ont cf proportion. The work is doiio in pamphlet form , and oatsldo of actual composition is Inexpensive. A BEE reporter called at Snpsrlntondeut .Tor ci'office , but fonnd that gentleman had loft the city. Hla clerk was askort concerning the $0,000 Item against which is marked records for school districts and plans for school houses. The gontlmnsn oald that formerly superintendents of dls- tricts woru allowed to purchase their own rocoiihwhich are books properly ruled end arranged to comprehend the nnmber of pnpils attending school and other data for the i iformitlon of proper au- thorlt C3 from any source the din- trial nipeilntendents thought proper. Some time olnco Superintendent Jonca thought it wonld be more ccomm- cal for him to furnith the books to the various dlatrlotr , and the ohatg } was made In accordance with his vlor/s. It will ba soon that 52,500 a year Is sot aside for thcsa books. Which certainly must furnitih a vary elaborate article In deed. Tbo clerk in Mr. Jones' oflico said that heretofore smo money had been made on the stationery and printing done for the superintendent ! ) offic ? , but that ho did not bollovo thoru wonld bo nny realized for the next ensuing yearn. When asked why , ho said that thura had been competition in the bidding for the work. Ho did not explain thnt the cam- petition bids wora not of such a character na to take It away from the hcuse which has heretofore done the work , viz : tbo Stnto Journal of this city. The superintendent bus not yet filed tny vouchers with the auditor ( or nork un der the above appropriation , so that the various amounts for the different pur. possa Bit forth SM not obtainable They will bo given in the columns of the BEE as soon as filed. A Mil ED AFFAIlt. A pocnliar case cimo up for trial before Justice Brown yesterday. Jnly 150th Johnson Lldgard , a farmer of Lancaster oauuty , had iv cow stolen.

Omaha's ' Fair Groups and How Tto Arc New ItnlldlnRB Erected ami Old One llenovntcd Plans Dovlacil For tbo Comfort of Guest * and the Success ol the FAlr. The mornbots of the executive com raltteb of the Omaha fair nnd exposition hold a mooting hst evening at the fal grounds for the purpose of looking ovc the improvements already mndo and dl rooting operations on others content plntod. A BEE reporter accompanies them to sco whathcidrray had bicu mad co far In preparing for the great event Porfivo weeks the fair grounds Imvo been tha econo of lively preparations , and largo amount of work has bcon acom pllshod. A force of sixty men has teen employee ? , nnd under the efficient super vision of Mr. A. J. Potter the aspect o the park has changed wonderfully. Th now buildings , frojh paint and qouorallj bright appearance of the place has given it an air of something grand to follow Tro moat striking object on the grounds is the elegant new amphitheatre which Is norr nearly completed. It Is the finest ono of the kind In the state and Is a source of pride to iti pro jectors. It has a seating oapac Ity of 3,000 , tnd from any part of it the entire stretch of the : rack is visible. Tbo scats are wldo and comfortable , arranged In tiers , ono above another , and at the top Is a wide prome nade. In the cantor It Is proposed to place sx hundred reserved chairs , and everything Is to bo so arranged as to se cure the greatest amount of comfort to the occupant ? . Thirty now stalls invo been erected or the acommodatlon of racing stock. They are built substantially , and with .ho additional room thus tillbrdod every- > ody can ba accommodated. The two ocd barns each contain eighteen stalls , which have been thoroughly renovated and whitewashed throughout. Nearly all the buildings have received now coats of punt. Floral hull locma up boautl- ully In adrccs of pea green , which adds ; ratly to Its appcaranca. The barns tavo boon pilntod rod , striped with vblto , and ( ho chads are colored red and whlto. Particular attention IB boirg paid to ho track , and it is baliig worked into plendld condition. Scrapers , rollcra and cprlcklors arj boicg called into re- $ nleltlou , and men are kept bnny enpcr- ntcnding their operations. On each ildo of the track new fences arc balng jullt. They are of pickets , painted while , and add greatly to the appearance of the placD. They also make it passible or occupants oa the grand stand to BOO OTory motion cf the horses en all parta of the track. Plans have been kid out for ntlll fnr- lior improvements , and in two weeks a Imo everything will bo In readiness for ccnpanoy. The company Is working lard to aecuro both beauty and comfort n all the surrounding ! of the pirlr , and hey are doing their work successfully. Vith elegant grounds , Cno buildings and no of the best trotting courses in the onntry , the success of Omaha'a first an- nnal fair Is assured. CONVICT LABOE , lore About tlio Suspension ot Imuor on the B. & M. lUiildintr , nnd tlio CAUSO Tlicrcoi' , Mention waa made in these columns yesterday ol iho cessation of labor on the Burlington & Missouri headquarters ad dition , because the bricklayers discov ered ihat atone prapartd by convict labor - bor was being put Into the building. List evening a reporter for the BEE mot Councilman Ballsy , cno of the con tractors who have in charge tbo work of construction , and from him gained fur ther Interesting facts about the matter. It aoras that the understanding van when the contractor took hold of the work that the cut stone waa to bo fur nished by tbo company. When , there fore , it was hauled to tbo epot , the con tractors ordered It into the building , without making any particular inquiry us to Trhero It came from , or by what firm It had been cut. Several days ago , the bricklayers on the building quit work , saying tint they hed discovered tbat the atone had'hoon cut by convlctlabor , and that they did not proposeto continue work , If the atone waste ba used. Yester day tto Burlington & Missouri company secured norno laborer * from abroad , in tending to put them to work upon the building When these mon found out how matters stood , they , too , declined to work , beotuso they were union men , The work , thurefoio , la at a standstill. The union men have bson repeatedly seen by thn contractors , but rofueo ua yet to make any compromise. They nro to hold a meeting to-night , in conjunction with the Knlghtaof Labor , when acoursa of action will ba determined upon. It is thought by Mr. Bailey and hta partner Mr. Olaen , that an arrangement will bo nude w here by the union men will go to work upon the building and finish the contract with the out stone furnished by the company. Jiut what the terms of tbo truce will bo Mr. Bailey wai nnablo last night to utato. The B. & M. folks declare that unless work Is returned by tbo union men they will scour the country and import non-union men nt any price , The workmen on the Lindquest build ing were about to atop bricklaying , In sympathy with their fellow-laborers on the Burlington & Mle-ourl addition , When the contractors explained to them , however , that they had nothing to do with the importation of the cut stone , and know nothing 01 the matter before hand , they consented to resume work agkin. The union mon explain their cause by raying that they propose to do all they cm to drive canvlct labor oat of the stata. They think lint , through legisla . tion has aa yet failed to abolish the ob noxious system , tbeio are other moans of dealing with the evil. Street Car Disnutor. As a Thirteenth street car was Blind / the turntable on the Ilaacall's park extension of tint line , the horses attached to it b.csmo frightened and started on a run. The driver was not en the car at the tlmo , and two Germans , who wera p&uengeiB , became frightened and jumped through tha windows , The . i hones , drawing the car , continued TO run until Ihey reached Vinlon atroof when In making the turn the car wo thrown over on Its tido. Ouo of th horses foil under the ear and wa BO badly injured that ho had to b killed. The other horse continued u the otrcot , and was finally captured nn hart. The two Germans who jnmpt through the car windows were consider ably bruised and shaken up. The ! names could not bo learned , FASHION ABLEEOUES , ICcdtictltm To-dy nf Tlmo at th Dhops "What tlio Shopmen say , Ulssatlifiictloii Kxproascd. An order nooi Into effect to-dsy in th Union Pacific shops , the annoancomon of which has produced uo Hello stir among the workmen. The hours of labor are tc bo reduced , commonclnp with to-day , t eight ins'cad of ten , as at present from 8 o'clock in iho morning nntll noon am from 1 o'clock In the afternoon unlit o'clock In His afternoon. In addltlo nonl , a half day'a work will bo dnnoon Satnr day. The change , It will bo noted , cf fic's a reduction of almost a dsy and r half in the J working tlmo of the mon , and as they are paid by the hour , a cor- reapondlrg redaction In the wages. In addition , a chancjo is to bo made in the regard to the payment for Dvcr-tlmo work. Heretofore men have been paid for over-tlmo work n price and a half iccelvlnpr , for instance , the price of three hours' work for two hours' over- , lmn labor. This has boon done mray with , and no rxtra price will uo piid for " ' ] class of labor. If a man ia on- on u ( .IP o of work when the i , it n i/clock In the evening , Lu hill bo i I'it ul to drop It at once and leave it UL.fiuiui.u.1 till the next day , un less ho chooses to put in nn hour or two extra liaio for nothing , which Is not likely. Thoao change ? , which affect all de partments , are not at all favorably re ceived by the men. Some are Inclined to bo rebellious , and mutter ominous threatn about a strike , 2They ! say that they ca-jnot aflord the reduction ; that thcio Is enough labor on hand to keep the entire mtjabor of chop men 1,600 in all at work on full hours Others are Inclined to ba more conservative. Said pna man to a reporter who was necking ing a general expression of opinion on the subject : "I don'e toi but whit wo will have to otand tha reduction with the beat grace possible. I arn hardly In favor of a strike myself , aud I don't think ono will occur. There la uo doubb , how- ovur , but that this change Is going to beer heavily upon ocnn if the men. I''or ' inatauc ? , mon receiving at present $4 per day will have their WORES cut down to $3 20 ; n man getting $3 a day under the old order of things wonld make but $2.40 under the now , and an on. The diseatlis- faction at the change is protly genaral , buS as I mid before , I don't think that there will bo ny eerlous trouble. Wo will hftvo to grin end bsar it , hoping tnat R change for the bstter may como soon. " General Superintendent Smith etld last night that thu company , In pnrsiuuce of general policy of retrenchment , had de cided to make the change. There was not enough work on hand to keep the shops running full tlmo with the present number. The company then had to adopt ono cf * wo alternatives , discharge aomo of the men or lessen the hpnts. Of the two , tlio company preferred the latter Ho Wants a Howard , Franz Nachtnall , a man living on the jottom , lias instituted suit In Justice * eldon'd court to obtain money for his ervicte In rescuing from a watery grave corr belonging to Thomas Cesjy.

Fjnlnoy Galviu and Patton have been onthuslas- tic , but the opposing democrats claim that Vaughan only secured two In the Firsb ward , five In the eccond , ono In the Third and none Intho Fourth , mak ing only eight out of the thirty-seven. VauRhin'B modesty does not prevent him however from claiming six In the First ward , tcvon In the second , three In the Third , and all the contesting dele. gates in the Fourth , making elxtcou out- tldo ol the Fourth ward. The CofTimm Cn.no , The refusal of Mayor Hoko , of Avoca , to take the responsibility of releating Arch Ocirman , on biil , does not end the attempt cf his attorncya and Meuda to Kit him thus rolcmoi ) .
