HlHtory of tlio CIIHC ntnl Claims of
of the I'nrtlcH-Hult of tlio
lAfflitli\x Companion WantH
The Injunction case of Jnmcs E. Ilo.va
against tlio American bnnk hulldlnR com-
l > ariy and O. M. Curter was culled before Judge
Irvlno yesterday morning. Tlio defendants
had illed nn answer to tlio putlilon and to
properly got. before the court , the plnlnlllT
asked for tlmo to fllo a reply.
This was granted and tlio cnso continued
until 2 o'clock. In some respects tl.U may
prove to bo a celebrated caso. Months ago
Mr. Hoyd sola the property at tlio corner of
Fifteenth and Farnnm streets to the Ameri
can bank building company. The deed con
veyed the property Known as "Hoyd's ' Opera
House , " together with all of the np-
purtonanccs. A short tune thereafter
Mr. Hoyd connnonced the erection of
the Boyd theatre on ttlarnoy , between Six-
'
tcenth'nnd Soventcenth streets. In duo tlmo
the bank leased the Hoyd opera house to L.
M. Craw/ord of Topeka. Mr. Crawford
made preparations for the opening of the
theatrical season , put posters on the dead
walls , Inserted advertisements In the news
papers , all ofwhlch convoyed the idea that
the attractions would appear on the boards
at Hoyd's opera house. Boyd , realizing that
tlio advertisements wore detracting from his
new theafc , secured a temporary injunction
restralnini , ' the lessee of the old house from
using the uninn "Hoyd. " Since the date of
that order , which wns Juno 17 , the
lessees hnvo billed the town for a
show at Bo.vd's opera house , and now
Judco Irvlno is inclined to think they arc' in
contempt of court.
At the afternoon session Judge Irvlno
heard the arguments of the Mtornoys and
took the case under advisement until Mon
day , when he will hnnd down a decision.
Mr. Montgomery for the bank and nlso for
Crawford reviewed tlio history of the con
struction of the opera house , its sale to the
bank and its lease. Crawford leased the
house in good fnlih and with the understand
ing that thn nanm "IJovd"sliould , tro with the
lease. At the tlmo that Hoyd sold the prop
erty , ho had no intention of bulldinc another
theater and in consequence thereof , there
was nothing said about the name hulnir
stricken from the dead walls and hill hoards.
Later ho carded the idea of another
theater ami hutl O. M. Carter wrlto to
Crawford telling him Unit some other name
\vould have to bo selected. The batilc bought
the property and In so doing bought the
name , which gave It n legal vight to lease.
Boyd was In doubt aoout using his own
name on the new theater and even went to
Carter to obtain his pnrtnlsslou so to do. Mr.
Montgomery argued that the name \vn * the
trade mark ; that the tenants of the building
iidvcrtiso as having their pl.ico of business in
the "Ho.vd opera housn block. "
Mr. Goodwin for Mr. Boyd took a different
view of the situation and held llmt the sale
of the properly failed to convoy the namo.
The new Omaha Ttiotnson-Honslon electric
light company lias got into a lawsuit with the
Northwestern electric light and power com
pany. The Omaha Illuminating company Is
also made a defendant. According to the
averments in the petition that was illod last
night away back In 18SO plaintiff sold the
defendant the Northwestern electric lleht
and power company appliances , attach
ments and fixtures of the value
of Sir > , ar > 7.8.r . A few months later
the Northwestern company went out of busi
ness by leasing its plant and outfit to the
Omaha illuminating company. The doht fol
lowed the lease , and later on the Thomson-
Houston gathered in the old company. The
plilntilT avers that the Thomson-Houston
pcoplo ncreed to pay the Indebtedness but
has failed to do so. I'luintilT now asks that
the balance , $ Ti.3ViSI ! , bo paid , ana that the
Thomson-Houston company bo restrained
from interfering with plaintiff in its attempt
to collect pay from the old company.
Thnmns Huyward has sued the Omaha
street railway company to recover the sum of
$10,100. On May 11 , John , the six-year-old
son of the plaintiff , was run over and killed
by a West Lcavunworth street car at Thirty-
seventh street , while stealing a ride. Plain
tiff alleges that his son was in novlso
responsible for the accident , and for this
reason asks for a judgment against the com
pany.
On December 1 , ISOO , Lewis Ulnaldo and
William Feller formed a partnership and en-
gnpcil In the business of handling ca t-off
clothing at 1105 Fnnmm street. By the terms
of the agreement Foilor was to furnish all o f
the cash , against which Ulnaldo was to put

was to receive a salary of SIR per week. The
llrm has now dissolved and Klnaldo Is sueing
for ? .Yil and also aslcs that Foilor bo 10-

I'rlcmlH of tlio Smoke Consumer Jfnvc
Their Say.
Mr. T , P. llnnloy , representing M. E. Her
bert of St. Joseph , Mo. , was In the city yes
terday and called nt this ofllco to make an
explanation of the contract and proposition
made by the M. E. Herbert smoke consumer
company with the city.
"Thero seems to ba considerable misunder
standing on the part of these concerned in
the matter , " aald Mr. Hanloy. "Tlio ex
planation of the proposition to the city and
our guarantee Is as follows :
"We propose to furnish the now city hall
building with four of the M. E. Herbert
smokeless furnaces tor the sum of f la.)0 ) , al
lowing the city to nriko n practical test for
sixty or ninety days wnen the apparatus
Is sot up complete , and If found to bo satis
factory and as wo represent It , then the city
is to pay for the apparatus. Wo also further
guarantee and avree that the furnaces will
positively burn the smoke , ' add to the capac
ity of the boilers and bo n great saving In
fuel.
fuel."Wo will also famish n bond that if the
anparatus Is not as the company represents
It that the same will be removed , and the
original plant ro-constructcd as llrst planned.
We do not wish to ask tlio city to pay us for
anything we do not furnish.
"Wo have had furnaces In operation for
several yeari past and they have given entire -
tire satisfaction to the parties usintr them.
Wo can refer anyone Interested In this mat
ter to the following concerns that have used
these apparatus with great success , nnmelv :
A. L. Hoover & Ko.is. proprietor of the Lin-
dell hotel. Lincoln , Neb. ; II. G. Uucklng-
ham , presldennt of the German-American
National bank building , St. Joseph , Mo. ;
Roberts & Woods , architects , Lincoln , Nob. j

coln , Neb. , and tbo Turner hull 'building ' , St.
Joseph , Mo.
"Wo stand rcadv to demonstrate to the
public , or to thu city , ar to nn.vono else wish
ing to purchase or make n test of thuso fur
naces that they are as wo represent them lu
every particular. "
Henry OstholT , chairman of the council
committee on public property ana buildings ,
said : "I ttiinlt wo are through witu our
efforts to secure smoke consumers for the
now city hall , as It is evident the people do
not want them. I shall sco Superin
tendent Coots tomorrow morning and
think 1 shall order him to begin the work of
setting the boilers In the basement hall. This
will bo done without any reference to mak
ing provisions for the use of smoke consum
ers. No doubt the pcoplo would like to know
why I endorsed the Herbert patent. It was
notXor boodle or the hope of futureroward. .
I want to glvo the city the best in the
market and after n thorough Investigation I
cumo to the conclusion that the Herbert con
sumer was what wo Wanted. This conclu
sion wns not arrived at entirely from my own
observations. I had testimonials that snow
thct it has performed the work. Boyd put
it into his opera house , and there it
lias been doing good work. But as I said before -
fore , the city will have to get along without
smoke consumers , as far as I am concerned. "
Mayor Cushlng says the Herbert people
may have made a guarantee that they would
remove tlio consumer and place the boilers In
their original condition , but that fact was not
made known to the mayor or council in nn
olllcial way. If such a bond was given it
was given to the contractor. The mayor
wants a test of any consumer-adopted and
says that such a test should extend throuch
three months in the winter.
Contractor John F. Coots said : "I have
noticed several statements in the papers re
ferring to the proposed now smoke consum
ers for the city hall. It Is surprising , to say
the least , how much trouble some people will
take to give uio public pointers about matters
they know nothing about themselves. I
have been holding back thosettingof tbo four
boilers for over two months nt the request of
the committee , in order to use tlio smoke con
sumers If so decided , and the contract was to
bo made In my name because I had the orig
inal contract for the steain-huatiug , and this
was a change In the work embraced therein.
I believe the committee feel sure
that the apparatus will do as guaran
teed. I have seen it in operation and
know that it did burn the smoke ,
this was at Mr. Boyd's now opera house and
soverrl councilmeu wcro present at the time.
"I have only the same interest in this mut-
ter'tlmt all other citizens have , and I bollovo
that if the smoke nuisance can bo abated it
should bo done , and that is proper for the
city to take the initiative. If successful ,
other parties will soon follow their example ,
thus doing away with u great evil.
"Tho city will run no risks. " con
tinued Mr. Coots , "because Mr. Her
bert will not- receive any money until the
apparatus is all in and has been
thoroughly tested in the winter weather when
In actual use. If the consumer does not ful-
11U all that the guarantee calls for , ho gives a
bond that ho will remove his work , and ro-
pluco and reset the boilers in the manner as
set forth In the original plans and
spocillcations without charge , and ho is only
to receive his pay after the test is made and
the consumers proved to bo all right. My
contract for this work with the city em
braces all the above points , and was drawn
up by Mr. Poppletou , and I know the city is
fully protected. The contract has been ap
proved by the council and I have signed it.
1 am willing. , if so directed , to
go on and set the hollers as originally
contemplated , but want the question decided
at once so as to cause no more delays. "
Ex-Governor Boyd wns seen with refer
ence to the matter , and said ho had two of
the consumers placed in his now theatre
building , and had satlsllod himself in advance -
vance that the apparatus was what it was
claimed to bo.
"I watched the operation of one
of these consumers all winter in
the Llndoll hotel In Lincoln , " said
Mr. Boyd , "and I saw for myself that it con
sumed the smolto. Mr. Hoover , the proprie
tor of ttio hotel , told mo that it effected u
great saving in coal , and I concluded to put
thorn In my new building. I have nu understanding -
standing with the agent that the consumers
are to bo removed if they do not provo satis
factory , and I have retained $2UO on the price
for this purpose. I think nothing should bu
loft undone to abate the smoKe nuisance , and
I am willing to do mv " share in that direc
tion. "

"All aboard for Arnold's Park , Oinntm
Beach and the OkoboJI Outing club ! " sings
out the captain of the steamer Uobcrt Wil
liams. The staunch llttlo boat is spitting
and sputtering ut the most terrific rate , and
the racket she makes would do credit to the
largest ocean greyhound. A jolly party of
Omniums , with just u sprinkling of Dubuque
and Cedar Kaplds people come trooping down
from the Orleans , and with many u Jest and
sopg ( .olzos upon the camp stools and In u
twinkling scatter ttioirselvor over the boiler
mid hurricane decks. John MeCormaek was
there with his wlfo and guitar. Undo Jim
Kick of the K. 1C. D. T. Co. ,
d ivldrd his gallant attentions be
tween t Miss Henderson of IJubuqi'c ,
and Miss Nettle Johnson of Omaha , while
Mr. liobcrt White and Miss Georgia Sharp
found much pleasure in gazing at the revolu
tions of thu wheel from bonuath tbo same
sun shade.
The more settled and staid members of the
party were Mr. and Mrs. N. B. Falconer ,
Messrs. W. J. Van Annan , E. Hand , Hoxio ,
Clnric , and Mr. and Mrs. Luclcu Stephens ,
all of Omaha.
Tlio trip from the Orleans down the chain
of OkoboJI lanes is remarkably pleas
ant. On the south shore of the cast
lake stand the elegant Mimtner homos
of Messrs. Clark of Cedar Kupids
and Slovens of St. Louis with their
outlylni : boat houses and pavilions , with
smooth shaven lawns sloping gently to the
water's odgc. Mr. Stevens has over $ . " > , OUO
invested in boats , $ -,0'JO ' of which is wrapped
up in a dainty little steam launch. A llnvly
appointed bout house with wide verun-Jas
inviting to delicious siestas upon the numer
ous lounging bencncs hero and there , add
beauty and comfort to ttio establishment.
Passing through the narrows into.the next
lake of the series , deeper water and still
more beautiful shores are reached. The
water is now of a lovely sea-green and the
steamer seems to actually enjoy the ease
with which her wheel now sends
her bounding over the dancing waves. The
strains of , McCormack's guitar float out
over the water and the jolly Omuhans raise
their voices in unison and "Seein ; Nellie
Home , " "Tavern in the Town , " "Su.ineo
Hlbber , " "Old Folks nt Homo" nud ' 'Gwine
Buck to Dixie , " follow each other In rapid
succession until tlio voices begin to take a
resemblance to that of the solemn bull-frog.
At Arnold's park the inevitable- survivor
of .the great massacre still holds tlio fort ,
being encamped In the grove around the
hotel , and credulous relic hunters spend their
coin for mementoes of the massacre , wnich
should have been exhausted long ago.
Tncro is no prettier scenery to bo found
anywhere than abounds around West
Okoboji. Emerald points , rocky coves , and
smooth , sandy ocachcs are seen in every di
rection. A shoit landing nt Arnolds anil the
boat continues on up the nast bay to the
grounds of thcOkoboi | ] Outing club of Omaha.
The club grounds are at Pikes Point , a high
headland putting out into ttio water and cov
ered with n line grove of slmdo trees. The
point Is eighteen miles from the Orleans , just
ono hour and a half by steamer. Long
before reaching the point a largo "some
thing" is seen projecting out iuto the. water ,
around which screaming maidens and hilari
ous youngsters were shooting witli a racket
like a circus band and plunging into tlio cool
waters only to bob up serenely , gasping for
breath and discharging the water from
mouth , nose mid cars ; but they wcro ready
for another plunge , for the fun is glorious.
Ono just about has time to yell and wish
that you wcro not there , when siz-z-z ker
chunk and the waves have swallowed you
completely and your fear is all gone. The
"something , " as may have been surmised ,
was iho new toboggan slide of the Omaha
Outing club.
Disembarking at the llttlo dock the party
was most hospitably received by Mr. and
Mrs. Baum and Mrs. John L. Kennedy. Mr.
and Mrs. D. C. Patterson soon joined the
gay crowd and all wcro piloted over tno
club grounds , The place is most sightly ,
standing on an eminence overlooking East
bay of West Olcoboji lake and Including a
Ilnostrotch of beach. The central pavilion
in which is included a dining room accommo
dating ono hundred persons , and the billiard
room and kitchen. It Is a Hue structure )
built after the most approved summer resort
style with broad verandas and largo windows.
Mr. Baxter , an expert caterer from
Spirit Lake has charge here and prides him
self upon his cuisine.
Mr. F. W. Gray is eroding a handsome
cottage directly in front of the pavilion ami
fronting tlio lake. In the coziest of wall
tents with board floors nicely carpeted and
hunir with portieres and womanly knickknacks -
knacks are domiciled Mrs. Kennedy , Miss
Day , Mr. and Mrs. Baum , Mr. and Mrs. Pat
terson and children , Mr. Burr of Lincoln and
family , Mr. and Mrs. Whitney of Omaha ,
Mr. and Mrs. Hosteller , Miss Funk and
Messrs. St. John and Hathaway.
A largo delegation of Omaha people are
expected shortly and the club grounds are
rapidly assuming shape. The campers
are happy as crickets and avow they
never ute so much in their lives and
they look It too. They are os brown as
berries and freckled as guinea eggs and they
appear as healthy as n tanner's boy. They
would not exchange their tents for nil thu
sea side resorts on the continent. The loud
tooting of the Williams called the merry
makers awny all too soon from Iho charming
place nii'l agreeable company. A delightful
run up the lakes and Iho Orleans was reached
in llmo for a dinner which was patronl/.od so
heartily that the cooks became alarmed and
the waiter was carried out in a dead faint
when ono lady of the party ordered "tho
samu thing all over again" forthothird time.
Spirit Lake is an appetizer without a doubt.
