Tlicconventlon of the Women's Missionary
Association of the United Presbyterian
church Ilnishcil Its proceedings yesterday
nnd most of the delegates left for their
homes lust evening.
The morning session of the convention
was devoicii largely to routine business ,
hearing of reports and acting thereon. The
most important mutter and the one around
which much Interest renlcrod was the elec
tion of officers. There Is generally quite a
struggle In a friendly way over these honors.
This year the western part of the ohurch
seemed to have carried the day and Omaha
has been honored in the choice of president ,
Mrs. .I. A. Henderson of Park avenue being
the successful candidate. The secretary is
generally re-elected , anil the rule was ob-
Korvcil again In the election of Mrs. Mary
Porter of Pittsburg to that position. 1-lrst
vice president , Mrs. W. S. Ileade , Cam

executive committee are Nebraska ladies.
Work of till ) Alteriioiui.
The convention yesterday afternoon spent
most of the time in business , the only matter
of general interest being a most excellent
paper by Mrs.V. . I' . McNary of Tarkio , Mo. ,
on teaching the bible to children. H was
such a practical address and so full of Rood
suggestions that nearly every delegate took
notes. ,
The business discussion was over the
adoption of u now charter. The present one
is defective in being a Pennsylvania corpora
tion requiring a sc'-ond meeting of the same
body to ratify the action done at the general
convention. The second meeting is the
work of the board of directors. The now
charter simplifies the matter some , though
it is evident that there is some feeling be
tween the enst and the west. Yesterday R
election was looked upon as a great victory
for the west. The next meeting of the con-
ventiim will be hold in Princeton , 1ml. , In
May , 18M. !
' 1 he evening session was given over to a
missluiinrv tallc by Miss Kmma Dean Ander
son , who has been for some years in India.
She knows pretty well what she Is talking
about and talks in a way that interests and
instructs her hearers. Stio was greeted bi
ll crowded house last evening. She will re
main in this vicinity some time and will de
liver one of her-lectures In Park Avenue
church next Thursday evening. It seemed
diflieult fur the convention to close up
its business and finish discussion. It is
n generally established theory that a
woman loves to talk on all occasions
llko this every opportunity Is Improved.
, Homo one remarked that the men who at
tended the meetings looked very subdued.
How could they look otherwise !
Pretty W.-ll PlfitHOil.
The ladles seem to be generally well
pleased with their entertainment and recep
tion In Omaha , and certainly the meals
served them in Plymouth church- were all
that could bo desired. One of the few un
pleasant features was the failure of
the Hock Island railway to deliver
fourteen trunks belonging to some
of the far eastern delegates. Most
of these ladies were to prolong their visits
or to extend them to other points , and many
of them wuro compelled to attend the meet
ings In plain traveling dresses. Only a
woman can understand the annoyance this
delay has caused and only a man can Imag
ine the hern tings the railroad agent has had
to undergo on account of tlio delay.
The storm of Wednesday evening was
somewhat trying to some of the delegates ,
who imagined a 'western cvclono" had fallen
upon the city. Owing to the intensity of
the storm and stoppage of electriu lines , fif
teen ladies remained in the church all night ,
preferring the misery of camping out there
to the rain and wind without.

WILL FAVOH A MARKET.
Cuiiiit'lliniin 1'riiiru'H Idru l'i\oralily Con-
Hlili < r < 'il liy tlu < Commit tro.
The project of a market plaeo In Omaha Is
n pot idea of Councilman Sol Prince and he is
enthusiastic in pointing out the benefits that
would accrue if his scheme is carried out.
Mr. Prince believes that by bringing
the dealers into eloso competition it
would insure the securing of a far bet
ter grade of vegetables , fruits and prod
ucts at more reasonable prices , and to n
great degree remove the present practice of
short weights and measures. Another ad
vantage would bo in the largo number of
stalls in which business would bo carried on ,
and the purchaser would not bo compelled to
? hooso between one or two hucksters. The
liousewifo would appreciate the tn'irket
liouse , Mr. Prince says , and she would bo -
enabled to make the morning purchases at ]
prices cheaper than now and secure a far
better quality of truck for the table.
The Third ward councilman lias had this
matter under consideration for some time ]
and his correspondence with the olllcials of | I
other elites upon the subject has been quite ! '
extensive. j i
The most valuable information he obtained i
from Boston , where market houses were es
tablished in 17.I ! , and have been maintained
in different parts of the city since that time.
The Fancull hall market at present is the
largest one in the city and thousands of
people daily throng the building. Hero are
offered for sale all kinds of meats , fruits ,
vegetables and produce , every foot of the
lloor space being occupied by the dealers.
The markets are all under municipal control.
Fancull hall market contains ItW stalls ,
averaging in si/.o SxlT feet , and paying a
rental of from $ . ' ) .M to $4(53 ( , according to loca
tion. There arc also in tins building forty-
two cellars that pay a rental of from $ T 00 to
$ l'J."X ) per year , according to location and
amount of room in each , the average
being about S1.U5 per square foot. Another
market is the now Faneuil hall with
thirty stalls and ten cellars , which pay
about the same average rent.
A more correct idea of the revenue de
rived from the city may bo gained
when it is stated that the annual
Income from . the markets reaches
about jfS.VilH ) , and the expense in maintainj j
lug them is but between $10,000 and § 11,000
per year , which includes salaries amounting
to W)00 , gas and electric lights $ < ( ) ! ) , and
sundry small expenses SoOO. An additional
expense is incurred to the city by laying new
lloors when required , but all other items for
repairs and improvements are met by the
tenants. George 1C. McKay , the superin
tendent ol markets , writes Mr. Prince that
the markets as a financial enterprise have
proven n great success and have always
met with the approval of the public.
It Is said that the revenues from the mar
ket houses of Now Orleans \ny \ the salaries
of all the city's ofliclals from the mayor
down to the bottom of the list.
Mr. Prince's idea is to acquire a suitable
piece of ground and lit it up temporarily for
the use of the hucksters this year , and by
way of suggestion lie mentions Capitol ave
nue , between Tenth and Kleventh streets.
Then at this fall's election ho would submit
to the voters a proposition to vote bonds for
the purpose of erecting a permanent market
house and have it ready for occupancy by
next spring.
The whole matter was brought to the at
tention of the city council Tuesday evening ,
and referred to n special committee com
posed of Prince , Wheeler , Jacobson , Howcll
and I'M wards. The committee will meet and
discuss the question , an I take a look at any
sites that may bo proposed for the purpose.
The report will be ready within a week or
ten days , and it will be favorable , as all of
the members have expressed themselves as
being supporters of the iirolcct.

Oily Council Proposes to Lay Water Mains
Through the Woods.
DOWN THE WINDING WAYS TO GIBSON
Snm Thirty I'foplo Only Want City Wntcr
ntiil to Supply Them Wotilil font the
City SIOO it Your The situa
tion As It In.
At the last session of the city council
Mayor Uemis' veto of mi ordliiiinco providing
for locntlnt ; water mains anil hydrants along
tliu county road that winds down past the
Tom Murray farm to Gibson , was rejected
auil the ordinance ! passed over his head. 'Iho
proposed measure Involves the expenditure
by the city of something llko f NX ) a year uiul
there arc but about thirty families to whom
the city water would ho any accommodation.
A HER reporter made a special trip to Uib-
son over the proposed route of the water
main provided for in the ordinance whlrh
the mayor vetoed. There Is n line of hy-
dnnts rxtondlng eastward along Bancroft
street clear down to Second street. Ue-
tween Ninth and Second on the south sldo
of Ilaiieroft there are but two houses and
there are not over half u dozen on ttio north
side , and yet there are seven lire hydrants in
that distance. It is proposed by the recently
passed ordinance ' to extend n line of
hydrants from a point on Uuncroft street
where the old county road makes off through
the woods between Fourth and Fifth streets ,
runnlmr in a southeasterly direction tnrco-
quarters of a milo to the Ciibson school
house on what Is known as the C. E. Mayne
addition just above Gibson station.
This old road is nothing more than u sort
of trail tiiroiuih the woods , although it is
claimed that It is a permanent landmark
and was laid out in IH7 ; ) by the county com
missioners and must remain u road. liut at
present it is both crooked and precipitous in
many places and along the sides there
are deep gutters. There is scarcely a
house on the road or anywhere near it
for the first half mile. On the right
is the Tom Murray farm and on the
left are the Clark and iSoutorlamU , known
as the powder house district. There are n
few shanties on the right , some distance
above Gibson , hut there is a deep ravine ho-
tween them and the ro.nl , making It very
improbable that water would ho used by the
occupants of these shanties even if there
was a line of water main along the road.
IHtllciitt tn Got Well Witter.
In the immediate vicinity of the Gibson
school house there are thirteen houses , occu
pied by a very humble class of tenants , who
pay from $ .1 to $7 per month rental. Others
are a little better grade of houses and are
owned by the people who live in them. The
reporter interviewed several of these people
ple and found that they are all supplied
with cisterns and do not use well water.
They have found it diflieult to gut well
water from the fact that it is a long way
down to anvthin ? llko a lasting supply. One
man showed the reporter a 'hole which ho
said was tlfty foot deep with an augur hole
in the bottom of it seventy feet deeper , mak-
Ini ; it In all ll'O feet to the bottom of the hole ,
and still he had not reached water.
There is a rather remarkable thing in
that neighborhood with regard to the sink
ing of wells. On the eastern slope , or west
of the ravine followed by the road , water is
reached at a depth of about sixty feet , but
on the western slope or east of the ratine it
seems almost impossible to go deep enough
to got water. There is a well at the Ban
croft school said to bo sixty feet deep in
which there is an abundance of water , but
the children and the principal of the school
complain that it is not good water.
On the bottoms below the school house
there arc a score or more of houses occupied
in the main by railroad laborers and others.
They get water from the railroad tank. It
is said that it is not diflieult to secure water
down there for they are but a few feet above
the river bed. Wells sunk to a level or below
the river bed furnish plenty of water al
though some of the residents claim that the
water is not good , while others say it is per
fectly pure and wholesome.
No Need for llyilnmtn llcrr.
According to the regulations governing the
putting in of water mains the city would be
obliged to pay an annual rental to the writer
works company on seven lire hydrants be
tween Bancroft street ami the Gibson school
liousfe. So far as furnishing protection to
property is concerned , at least live of the
hydrants would be of no more use than
though they were located in the middle of
the Missouri river. They would simply bo
planted in the woo'Js.
There is another matter that seems to
have been overlooked. Some of the property
owners down near the Gibson school house
have fenced in the county road , claiming that
they bought the land now used for a road
when they bought their lots. One man. Mr.
Frank Stopenck , has built his house across
the road and teamsters are obliged to drive
across the school house grounds to get down
to the station. It appears therefore to
bo rather a disputed question as to whether
the road traverses private property. Third
street , which would Jead down to the school
house if opened from Bancroft , is not open ,
as there is a strip of private property lying
between. It would appear to bo absolutely
necessary , therefore , in order to reach
Gibson with a water main at present to fol
low the meandering roadway hero described.
Several of the lot owners have fenced the
road up and an hour before Tin : BKI : re
porter visited the Gibson bchool neighbor
hood Councilman Ilascall and another man.
who is interested in getting the water mams
laid to Gibson , went down along the road
and knocked down all the fences that had
been built across the road.
J'lmiul it llc.ti-r I'lnii ,
The boulevard that will lead to the south
side park will leave Bancroft street mure
than a quarter of a mile west of the point
where the county road puts off into the
woods. In all prob.ibility there will bo in
due course of time a line of water mains
along the boulevard reachlnir the park some-
tiling llko half a milo west of
Gibson street. The proposed line of
hydrants would Do of no use to
the park or the boulevard unless the line
veao extended westward from the Gibson
school. When the water mains are laid
along the boulevard , however , an extension
could be made to the Gibson school , leading
from the boulevard , without lollowing a
crooked and questionable country road
thru ugh the woods
The reporter noticed a line of gasoline
lamps all the way from Bancroft street to
Gibson and that they were located at short
intervals ol from seventy to 100 yards apart.
It was explained by one of the residents'of
that part of the town that the lights had to
be set close on account of the crookedness of
the road.

Orel D. Orvln was arrested by D-tcctlvos
Hayes and Hudson yesterday on complaint
of C. M. Packard , who charges Orvis with
swindling htm out of JT.M ) . According
to Packard's story Orvis represented
that ho had a patent for a certain
down-draft furnace , which was a very
useful article , and that negotiations
were pending with Packers Armour and
Swift of Chicago and South Omaha to put
these furnaces in their packing plants. Ho
claims that he was taken In by these repre
sentations and induced thereby to part with
? 7")0 of his savings for a one-fourth Interest
to manufacture and sell the patented article
in this state. Orvis made all these state
ments , ho says , with the knowledge that
they were false and that the furnace
was worthless. Orvis , says that
the action was simply taken to com
pel him to return the money. No false
representations were made when the bar
gain was concluded betwef.ii them. The
furnace Is In use In the Paxton block. Mr.
Packard is a Boston man.
