At thu recent inuutlnir of ttto council thnt body ordered pnid and plncvd In the ticncnv npiroiriatiou ) ] ordinance ! the hill of the f a com puny nmountlni , ' to Mr > , Fife.rj7. ( Tim hll was objected to by several members of the council , who held Unit If the gut coinii.in } was entitled to more than $ ; i',000 the muttei should bo decided In the couits. H | > e.ikitit with a representative of the gun cotnp.iii.v ycstcrdiiy a Hn : reporter asceitulned thtii the romiMtiy did not expect to p-t jiaid rltjlii nwuy. They felt that the major would veti the ordinance because there was no money litho the ircnunil fund with whioli to p.iy tin amount above mentioned. The K.IS nun also said that the amount even did not express the Indebtedness of tHe city it the roinjMiiy. In KUIIII ; ' < vrr the bonks it Inn been discovered , he said , that Otimha o\\e-i the company ti.'IT.l" nioic , making the tola tin.Q-in 74. He explained this new develop ment by stilting that the city was entitled liecauso of certain umle.'istnmllnir , tonic bate in n number of features , which made u ) the minor portion of thu bill and that rebate , ntmiunlliiK to * TH7 17as allowed. The council committee was aware of the rebitf nnd without closely examining Into the mat tcr deducted the same amount. The i esult ! that the sum was taken out of the bill twice. As soon as the pis company as > rertairied this they set at woi k to tack on the one of the ? 7t7 ! 17 , which will again bo the RUbjctt of some explanation ut the council to inonow nielli. Jn looking into the matter , a Hr.n reortcr | discovered another important mistake whie.1 : will have to be icmedied at the same or pos sibly later , perhaps when the mayor s-ends in his message or when Comptroller Goodrich forwaids to the s.une body his report whicli Is said to comprise about forty | > ntcs of loyal cap. When tliu pis bill , us before refened to , was dlrcussed in the council , Mr. Good * rieli's repoit showed th.it the city owed the company only &U,000. It has since been ellscovered that this was erroneous , This was because of no defect on the pait ol the comptroller and his clerks but because ol the peculiar action of the pas committee ol thr council. At the end of last \ ear , the lat ter were furnished by the pis company witli bills for ! Sb7. among others bciiii ? ono for Ibl gas lamps which had been erected during the year. Knch of these lamps cost S2J and the total amount w.is ( .

The bill introduced by Senator Manderson as also Kepicsentativo McShaae in congress for thu erection of u government building hoio provides for the condemnation of propei ty for a site of the same. Since the bill has been considered ui the committee of thu house , thu latter seems to think that $ T)00OOUis all that should be appropriated this year instead of $ lr > ( K,000 ) , because , before moro than the meio sck-ction of the site could bo done , an enabling act of the statu tr ceulc the propei ty to the United States would ho required ; and as thu legislatuio of thi state which alone could pass the act will not meet until ISSK , it would be inadvisable to appropriate moro than the smaller sum mentioned , leav ing another cougi ess to pass the money i e- quiicd to complete the proposed structure. Chairman Halcombc , of the board of public woi ks , hui unearthed the act of the state h'gislatuie in IblO , b.hlch . the site of the piesent postofllco building was e-cded to the government. It is found in Hartlett's com piled statutes , and reads as follows : "That the lonsent of the state of Nebraskc is hereby given to the purchase ) or release bj the United States of such lands In Oinaua , not exceeding two ncies in extent , as inaj have been or may hereafter bu selected b the United States us u situ for a postofllce and court house. " Mr Halcombo a > s that the present site i < less than u quai tor of an acre in extent am that theie still remains an acio and three quaitcis which the goveinment is at libert : to select without ntf other act of the legislat me. He has submitted the question to lega authoi ity. If his opinion should be sustained congiess would have no necessity to post pone the appropriation of $ lT.omKK ) ( ) for tin Omaha public building on the graiind of lucl of another e'liablim ; act , which it seems nov s the only excuse.

Our Hat department has for the past few days been quite active , and our spring trade in this line promises to be the biggest we ever had. We have made am ple preparations for it , have enlarged this department considerably , and have put in a stock of hats unequalled for variety and styles. We propose to make this department a leading feature of our business.1 Those who bought hats of us last season know that we sold them for about one half the prices other houses charge. We intend to do still better this season. We do not carry any cotton or so-called wool hats. We only keet > good qualities of fur hats such as we can warrant will give entire satisfaction to the wearer , with every hat sold in our es tablishment goes a guarantee , and our guarantee means that if any imperfection or damage is found in a hat , we take it back and give either a new hat or return the money. As our opening bargain for the season we have placed on sale all elegant line of cassimere hats , made in the latest shapes , at one dollar. These hats cannot be duplicated elsewhere for less than $2.50. At the price of one dollar they are the most astounding bargain ever offered in this or any other city. Finer grades of cassimere hats at $1.40 , $1.75 and $2-25. Our very finest hats at $3.25 are equal to the best makes in this country or imported. We have added this season a large line of soft hats , and also a fine assortment for boys. All goods marked in plain figures and at strictly one price. Corner Douglas and I4th Streets. Omaha.
