The llcnult.
The now Kollom school buildmgntTwonty-
oconu * nnd Paul streets was Inspected by tbo
Board of Education committee on buildings
nnd property yostcrdiy for the purpose of as
certaining the truth or falsity of certain state
ments made by MA D. I. Hayden , ono of the
subcontractors , with reference to the laying
of the floors.
Mr. Hayden had presented n sworn state
ment to the effect that In several of the rooms
there was no paper laid between the llrst and
iccoild layers of flooring. The specifi
cations call for tar paper between thcso floors ,
anil the board Instructed the cammlttoo on
buildings and property to Investigate. Only
Mr. Euclid Martin und Mr. Corvoll from the
committee wcro present , but Superintendent
Hamilton. Contractor Mongodoht , Mr. Hay-
den. Mr. Nelmoyor and several other work
men nnd n BUB reporter vroro eye witnesses
to the Investigation.
The first charno made by Mr. Hayden was
that sappy and rotten boards had been used
In the lloort. Ho was * astced to point out
these dofocttvo boards and ho proceeded to
do 10. Ho pointed to six boards In different
rooms * on too first und second floors that ho
called sappy.
Mr. Noltnoyor , tbo foreman , planed the
boards off and the snnvlngs were carefully
examined. The boards wore all found to bo
dry nna Mr. Hayden admitted that thrco of
them were not sappy. Two others ho claimed
had boon sappy because they showed blue
and black streaks through them. Ouo board
had evidently boon a sappy ono. It was
Btnlnod blacit by tbo effects of the water
which had at some llmo held lodgment In it.
The committee thought that about the only
really objectionable board found. Both
Mr. Martin ana Mr. Coryoll pronounced the
floors very satisfactory In the main.
The next cbargo was that no paper had
been put down botwcon tbo floors in some
rooms.
AI tor a long war of words between Mr.
Hayden and Superintendent Hamilton , Mr.
1) . O. Hayden , brother to the subcontractor ,
agreed to show the rooms where no paper
had been laid. In the southeast room on the
second floor the auger was put through the
floor near the center of the room and paper
was found.
"You won't find any paper hero , " said Mr.
D. C. Hayden , stepping a few feet farther
oast.
' Put the auger down hero , " said Mr. Mar
tin , nnd sure enough thcro was no paper
found at that nolnt.
"Tho paper begins nt the cast sldo , " con
tinued Mr. Hayden , "where wo began to lay
the tloor but It only continues about throe
foot. Then there Is no paper until you got
pretty well toward the center of the room. "
"How did that napponi" asked Mr.
Martin.
"The work was done according to instruc
tions. " replied Mr. Haydon.
"Who gave you such Instructional"
chipped in Superintendent Hamilton.
"Mr. Mongodoht , " was Havdon's answer.
It was now about time to hoar something
from Mr. Mengcdoht and it looked for a mo
ment ns tbouph the Ho direct and possibly
blows would bo passed. But Mr. Mongc-
doht appears to bo a patient and self-pot-
sesscd man , so bo simply denied that he had
over given instructions that no paper should
belaid.
"Hayden told mo several times , " said Mr.
Mentrodoht , "that it wns all nonsense -
sense to put paper between the
floors and that it was a croat deal of trouble
for him to put it down. I told him that the
specifications called for the paper and I
must have it put there. I would not have
had him fail to put paper In there for $1,000 ,
and told him so. It's a very small item of
expense anyway. 1 bought paper enough
and sent It up hero to cover all these Moors
nnd I fullv expected that he would put it
down. When ho failed to put down the
paper ho was violating the Instructions I
gave him. "
Then Mr. Hamilton had his Inning. Hn
oxnlplnod that ho had found Mr. Havdrn's
men In that Identical room laying floor with
out paper under it uud bad ordered them to
tear it up and not to lay any moro In that
manner. That nortion of the floor laid after
Mr. Hamilton had discovered the difficulty
was examined with the auger and paper was
found under it.
Mr. Hayden then pointed out certain
places In other rooms nnd in the hall where
there was no"papor. Ho also called attention
to the defective work on the moulding around
the wainscoting.
"Who diu tbut work ? " Mr. Martin nskod.
"My men did it , " sold Haydon.
"And you brought us up here to exhibit
the defects In your own worlr , did youi"
"Well , it seemed to please Superintendent
Hamilton all right. Ho didn't catch onto in
Ho don't know a poor job when ho sees it , "
continued Hayden , as ho passed around the
room showing whore the moulding on the
wainscoting failed 16 fit the window casing.
Tbo "defects which Hayden pointed out
In the wainscoting appealed to the
committee to DC very trivial and Mr. Hey
den wns asked to point out the rotten Hoards
spoken of In hisaffidavit. Ho failed to find
ony rotten boards but sal that ho meant
boards that had been sappy for a long time
nnd had a sort of dry rot In them.
This brought tbo investigation to an end ,
and after looking the building through tbo
committee considered several minor changes
suggested by the suDorlutoiidcnt in reference
to the outer doors and the main hall.
The committee will report at the next
mooting of the board.

tliu Action of the Council.
It was with some degree of disgust that
the members of iho Board of County Com
missioners road the proceedings of Tuesday
night's council mooting , or nt least that portion
tion referring to the disposition of Raymond
Brothers' contract for constructing the
bridge over Cut-Off lake , on the line of Amos
nvonuo.
County Commissioners Berlin , Stouborg
nnd Tlmmo today stated that the boundary
line cojld cut no figure , us tbo city's contract
provided for the construction of 400 feet of
tbo bridge eastward from the wcstsboro of
the lake. That portion of the lake
had always boon In tbo Fifth
ward and no question had ever
boon raised as to the boundarv.
If there wni any question about the locution
of the eastern terminus , the county bad
taken all of the responsibility when It lot the
contract lor the construction of 1,200 foot of
the bridge. >
The commissioners suld they had acted in
goo'l faith nna would not have lot the con.
tract If it had not boon understood und
ngreod that the city would construct 400 feet
of the bridge ever the west tide of the lake.
They could not soy what would bo the result.
The county had let Its portion of the contract
and the contractor had commenced work. If
the Courtland Beach company would not
build the 400 foot there was nothing to aobut
conitruot the 1,200 foot of bridge out into the
lake and then let it stand.
Commissioner Tlmmo itatea that the con
tract wns lot more for the purpose of aiding
Omaha In securing a * pleasure report than
for any other purpose. The bridge could
benefit no person outside of Omaha and it
had boon so understood sincetbo day when
the scheme was first conceived ,

THE EAST OMAHA DECISION.
.Slum-hip of Wlmt thr States Claimed nnit
U'lmtTliry HrcoUml.
'Iho officers and stockholders of the Bast
Omaha Land company are footing unusually
Jubilant ever the decision of the United
States supreme court which has settled the
question of the boundary line between Iowa
and Nebraska , or at least that portion per
taining to ICflst Omaha.
As Is well known the case wont up from
'
the United States circuit court of 'Iowa.
10 very fact was nut In Issue am ) for morn
than a year n dcspcrato legal bnttlo was
waged.
From the start Iowa contended that the
boundary line was midway between iho
United States surveys of 1851 nnd 18M. This
line ran from a mile to n mile and u halt
north of the present channel of the river ,
through Bnsbo's bond , nnd throw ull Of the
Easl Omaha possessions into lown. Then It
ran duo west to a nolnt about ono mlle east
of Sherman avenue nnd then south about
1,000 feet oar.t of tbo water works pumping
station ,
Nobraski contended that the boundarv
line followed the channel of 1S7T ns the river
ran just prior to the cut-of. This position the
United States supreme court sustained. Tlio
decision places the antlro river frontage In
Nebraska nnd adds several thousand acres
of land. At the same time It places the boi-
tlo shaped tract in the bond of Iho river ,
where it flowed In the sprint ; of 1877 In
Iowa. Iowa gets the whole of the Courtland
Beach tract and some ' . ' 00 acres lying directly
south.
Tbo wording of the supreme court aocls-
lon. as handed down by Justlco Brewer , Is
The boundary line shall bo located where
Iho river ran in 1877 , previous to the cut-off ,
subject to such changes as may have been
brought about by the gradual shifting of the
channel.
The next mflvo will bo to settle this
boundary line. An effort will bo made to
have It sealed uy a survey made Jolnlly by
the surveyor of Douglas county , Nebraska.
and the surveyor of Pottavvattamio , la. If
they cannot agree , the matter will go to a
commission to ba appointed by the govern
ment.
The officers of the East Omaha Land com
pany state that the decision will result in n
great boom for Omaha ana East Omaha. It
will add several miles of rlvor front which
has always boon claimed uy Iowa , and In
addition It will throw several thousand
dollars' worth of 'property Into Douglas
county for assessment purposes.
Hogardlnc the question of annexing East
Omaha to Omaha , tbo East' Omaha Land
company do not view the proposition with
any great degree of favor. They claim thnt
they have paved and graded streets , water
works nnd sewers , and do not see where they
roald gain any benefits by such a movo. To
annex their taxes , thov claim , would bo in
creased without receiving any corresponding
advantages.

Wo wish to make a suggestion to persons
troubled with rheumatism. Try u few ap
plications of Chamocrlain's Pain iBalm. If
thnt does not bring relief , dampen a piece of
flannel with the Pain' Balm and bind it on

is almost sure to' relieve tno pain and by its
continued use many severe cases have been
permanently cured. 50 cent bottles for sale

AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA
Some Points That Are Usually Overlooked
by Oasuiil Observers ,
IMPORTANCE OF THE STOCK TRADE
It * drouth n.Matter of.Surprise to Any Who
Jlino Not U'atchcMl It Cloqely I'liins
for the Iliiinnioml Additions
Approioil.
It may bo doubted whether moro than one-
half of the people In South Omaha ro.ilUo
how rapidly the live stock Interests of the
place nro developing. To n casual observer
the Increase In the amount of stock handled
Is not apparent or is so gradual that the difference -
feronco Is scarcely noticed , A glance at thn
figures showing the daily amount of business
transacted by the yards nnd packing houses
Is surprising to anyone who remembers what
these same llguroi footca up n year or two
ago.
ago.It wns only a short time ngo when the
patrons of the South Omaha yards pointed
with pride to the fact that 8,000 hogs had
once been received hero In ono day. This
was regarded as a wonderful achievement
und ns indisputable evidence thnt the Magic
City was destined to bocoma the second
greatest packing point In the United States.
The books of the Union Stock Yards com
pany show that during the mouth of Janu
ary the receipts of hogs exceeded 8,000 on
fourteen fcopamtc duyc. The total receipts
on these fourteen days amounted to 130,108 ,
an nvarngo of II.72J n day. That the local
domain ! for hogs Is fully equal to the market
Is demonstrated by the fact that the four
packing establishments slaughtorou over-
b.OOO hogs on Esovun duvs of iho some month.
The aggregate for the seven days wns U-SJ1 (
an average of 8,980 a day.
In comparing those figures with these of
other points it should bo romoinbcrcd thnt.
the uverago weight of tlio hogs received hero
was 270 pounds , against a similar nvorago of
' . ! > pounds at Chicago , so that thu handling
of 8,000 hogs here was equal to n business of
nearly 9.000 In Chicago.
That this increase In business will con
tinue Is not doubted bv any ono wno is fa
miliar with live stock.Interests. Ills n well
known fnot thnt tUo South Omaha market Is
nt nil tlmos proportionately higher than
Kansas City \\nen the difference In freight
rates Is tiiKon Into consideration. It Is in ex
pectation of a largo increase In shipments
during the coming .season that thu stock
yards and packing houses are about to invest
a roilnd million of dollars In preparing to
receive It. " ;

of the spring season is always a welcome time
in a large clothing establishment , such asours ,
to every Individual connected with it , from the
heads of the house to the youngest salesman ,
employed in it ; from the man who buys the
goods to the man who tells you about them in
the papers. After long months of handlin
thick , heavy goods in darlc and sombre colors ,
to turn to the handsome shades and colors of
spring , is like turning from a dead stump in g
pasture to a fragrant bed of pansies in full
bloom. This spring it's a little "more so" than
usual. Such a radical change in styles has not }
been known in years before. Particularly is
this true in
MEN'S SUITS.
The shades and colors have never opened up
as handsomely as this spring's productions.
New shades of brown and blue and gray ; toney
tans ; handsome modes , and nobby mixtures in
countless blends. New styles in pin-head
cheeks and ' 'eighth inch effects. " ' New plaids'
and stripes. No man can tell , and 'no man can
imagine when he is told how handsome the
new things are without a look.
Our entire new line of Spring Suits for men
will be ready to inspect any day this week.
Homespuns , Cheviots , Wales , Corkscrew , Di
agonals , Worsteds , Cassimeres , Meltons ,
Serges , in Cutaways or Sacks , bound or plain.
Drop in bring your pocketbook not much
money you'll have a new spring suit to weai ?
