A Olo-in on the Douglas Btraot Propoitj OompHcatM Matters. SOCIETY JUST ABLE TO KEEP AWAKE r n Kmiiti In tin XirllVorlil Hint Qaro liitnrr-xt o III * la tV * > k Jolin unil Vlutur Ctl l ll C l lir t * Their Jilrlliclny * . Vi'hen the contrnctor of the now Omivha Club house nbnndonodrvork on the founda tion nt Twentieth and Douglas streets the ooard of director * of thu organization were unanimous In the opinion that tt wns duo solely to the lack of material , liul tbo Iron ! s on tno ground for the now structure nnd weeds hnvo long slnco usurped the places once occupied by the bricklayers , There is a. dreary doiolatonoss about the place , and what gnvo nrilllnnt promise In the early days of the . \o.ir of being the handsomest club IICUHU in the west bus not risen alm'o the foundation walls. Nor Is It At nil likely that mora than the foundation walls will ornament the ground selected by the club for building purposes. From the beginning a certain clement of the club , representative of the business life of Omalia , opposed thu Idea of locating the now hotiHo nt Twentieth and Douglas streets , but the majority outvoted tno consorva- tlvo minority nnd Iho lot was purchased for fiO.IKK ) . Plans were accepted nnd a contract made for the erection of thn build ing , which was to cost somoii.1,0 > JO. The members of the club raised by subscription BOIUO ? ; ; 0,000 which was expended In the purchase of the Hitchcock property. The contractor began work , but before the foundation walls werocomploted abandoned the strnctms ) for tlm reason that his work was not being paid for. The tlnancicrrf pf tho' club endeavored to raise f-MlHJO ) on Ilrst mortirago bonds , but tno effort died a-borntn' , and with It the hopes of thu members that 1&K1 would see them in anew now club house. But the dinicuitlcs that have followed the selection of this site did not stop hero. Tlicro is n cloud on the llllo which will require the intervention of n court before the clubcomes into thu full enjoyment of Its own. These rapidly occurring dinicuitlcs have opened tbo eyes of many of tbo club moin bors to tlm fact that thu site is all a mistake nnd that UK purchase for club "purposes was n blunder in the most approved sense. And these men have no fear of expressing them selves at what Is now regarded as a bit of Hharp practice on the Dart of the board of directors to help out a club friend to the ex clusion of others who had more advan tageous terms to offer. Speaking to a member of the board of director * vesterday ho frankly admitted that the Davis property wns much prefer able , "but the club , " said he , "was not in a position to p.ty $15,000 more for n lot. With lluancc.s In tliolr present condition , I do not think any more work will bo done on the house this year. As It now is we will have to got some ono to take a mortgage on tbo property nnd then pur chase the mortgage. The relief wo sought from the legislature was killed by an Omaha member , so that wo are compelled to raise money by a subterfuge to complete the building. " It Is understood that at the last mooting of tbo board of directors a gentleman offered to loan the club $10,000 for ono year at n reasonable rate of interest , arguing that times would be bettor In tbo meantime when the club might be able to finance the scheme. But each delay makes consiUorablo difference to the men themselves who have b'eon looking forward to a club homo for years. While they nrguo that the same condition of affairs would exist if ' they had purchased the Davis property they are oatistlcd that a clear title could have been given them. With the sentiment against the situ constantly on the increase , it is by no means certain that a club building -.vlll over ornament the back yard of Mr. Hitchcock's property. No time Doing left lor changing his stage costume thoothc.r , evening , when engaged to slng'vory latc-nt n distant musiuhali , Albert Chovallor appeared In the vestibule of the Londottj District railway station at Charing Cross in bravo coster array , groutly to the ndmlratlon of a genuine member of the craft , who was also waiting for a train. Fascinated by tbo appari tion of such n "dossy" brother In his call ing in life , the man followed the famous nctor and singer to the ticket window , and , with open-mouthed wonder , heard him ask for a lirst-clnss return ticket to Hammer smith. When the coster bad recovered a little from the shock ho , In turn , approached the window and inquired : " MCro , guv'nor , what dicf 'o ask for ? " And , on being in formed that bis hearing had not deceived him , replied enthusiastically : "S'olp mo ! Then gl'mea Pullman to Whltcehapol. " There are some people who always will growl no matter how much Is done for them ; but there are some things that the "summer boarder , " as the seeker after change of air and scene * is usually dubbed , has n right to expect. "Tho Idea of iinding fault over such trilles , " exclaims the landlord nnd his wlfo. Exactly , If they are trilles why should they not be remedied ? A "boarder" has : i right to com plain wherever trilles are disregarded , nnd if landlords would only look at the city people ple from the hitter's standpoint , not his own , much trouble would bo obviated. Here are soiua of the things everybody complains of nnd has n right to. The city guest should be allowed to have all the towels ho re quires. There should bo no restrictions us to cleanliness or the luxury of water , both hot nnd cold. It Is an easy matter to keep hot water alwayt ; on hand. U Is not always possible to got ice , but there arc many methods of cooling water , and cold witter and hard butter can with a little trouble bo always obtainable. It seems striingn , but a luck of cleanliness about the table Is a most frequent cause , of com plaint. A man may go to the table with a good appetite , which a spot upon the tablo- clotn may take tiTny. There should always bo a largo tiupply of small tablecloths that may bo placed over the large hanging cloth nt each meal. Napkins should bu served fresh with each meal. Those are Hula troubles , It Is true , but then ono expects or should expect to have extra worlc and plenty of it if they adopt as a livelihood the D taking of boarders. Daintiness of serving food is some thing that can bo done just us well its not , if only the landlady thinks It "worth while ; " It Is ulwajB worth while to do the city way fur city people. Thousands of families go every summer for rej t and recreation , to country and seaside , to the small hotel or boarding house. They come bacK to town nt the expiration of their stay , fretful and un happy. U would bo hotter for both parties , landlord and boarder , if these trilles were carefully observed. Take care of the trilles and the big things will adjust themsulres , would bo a very agreeable nnd proiltablo doctrine to follow for all concerned. Ilronrn ( iiiiilil.

It hns been well said that to see the World's fnlr with comfort nnd small expense ono only needs to "know how. " Nothing contributes so much to the real plcnsuro of n visit as good hotel nccommodntlons near the grounds , nnd it Is conceded that the Hotel "Omaha" is ono of the very best houses to stop nt In Chicago. It Is one of the very few prosperous hotels near the fnlr grounds.

I can , hoivovcr , ook within myself and see the exact Imago of that homo so far away in distance and "n timo. I look through every room of .ho old domicile , hoar the pattering of the rain upon the roof , the booming of the waves of the llttlo lalcu upon the shore ; .ho murinorlng of the brook that ran down jy my father's house. The sights and the sounds of my childhood are with nio today and 1 will carry thorn to the end of my nort.il career , and through the immortal world. Now , I believe that central Jaliforma offcres the best experiment for lomo building In this age. Its lovely climate- , nild and gentle , deals kindly with infancy , childhood.youth and old age. There are no snows of winter , no heavy frosts or danger ous storms , but an almost cloudless sky. You naturally exclaim as you waico from sleep. "How beautiful is this morning ! " jut ovcry inornlng for month after month will be th'o 3:11110.as : . the ono you praise ; Multitudes of peo'plo sloop from -.choice . in the pure fresh air from April to Novem ber , without fear of dew or rain. A home may bo built with llttlo expense since there are no massive , costly founda tlons , no necessity for thick , heavy walls , but the whole structure may bo light ant ] airy , and , if properly built , convenient and attractive. The niounialns , but a few miles away , have an almost inuxhatistibto supply of the choicest building material , in both wood and stone. The season for growth Is so long that a single year will raise more treeo , shrubs anil ( lowers than can be produced in three years In the eastern states. A growth from llftcun to twenty feet is by no means uncommon whllo two inches iu diameter on a young thrifty trco Is the usual growth. I started nn entirely now place without anything but the bare ground , and within two years it looked like an old settler among the surrounding homes. The orange , lemon , prune and olive trees are as common in the yards of the pcoplo as the sugar maple , locust and the Norway spruce are In the cast , also palm , Australian fern and pepper tree. A new section of the country Is .now being opened , with an ample supply of water for Irrigation to provide lovely homes for 10,000 people at rates so low us to como within the reach of every man with industry and nconomy. These lands are capable of producing from $50 to 500 per aero if planted to any of a variety of crops now being cultivated in this vicinity.

In this pithy nnd pointed expres sion Is crystallized the governing passion of n large clement of humanity. It manifests Itself in countless ways. The IxmliUtm lot tery extracted millions from thojiockots of the votaries of chanro bolero federal law re stricted its scandalous operations. Specu lating on 'chntigo fills prcm.ituro graves of tenor than It ndorns n homo. Men stake tliolr wealth en the turn of n card nnd nro hungry of tenor than they nro flush , with win nings. Ever slnco Atlnm risked parndlso for nn npplo cltnnuo has boon the evil Inheri tance of humanity. As with other human passions , there Is an abundance of morco- narlea ready to cater to It all times. Five years ago Massachusetts gnvo legal sanction to a craze known as assessment en dowment companies. Two yo.irs later the law was repealed. During the Intervening period llfty-slx companies were organized and In Juno , 1SU1 , they had a momborshln of 20.1,583. Thcso concerns prpmlsod' largo profits on small investments. They were the royal road to fortune. Tholr deluded patrons did not stop to consider how the great margin of prollt was to bo mado. The glowing- promises of "How to got rich quick" were sufllclcnt nud the craze for endowment atoclc spread llko n prairie tire through out Massachusetts 'and adjoining states. To fulfill the promises made to Massachusetts members would have required the enormous sum of fS4,810- , 278. The total amount , collected Is not known. It Is notorious , however , that tons of thou sands were swindled and comparatively few received back a fraction of the assessments paid in. In the state of Maltio over $5,000.000 was collected , and thrco-llfths of It lined the pockets of the schemers. Both Massachu setts and Maine learned at a cost of many millions that wind coinage was not prollta- blo , and legislation was had revoking the charters of the endowment concerns. Sixty Thousand Tiikaii In. 'You don't have to.dlo'to boat this game , " was the expressive motto of the Order of the Iron Hall , tbo parent of endowment companies. It was a-Hoosier fungi , grafted In 1881 and burled in 1SUJ. The feature of the Iron Hall was the promise of $ l,000"rto all subscribers who promptly paiiJ every assessment levied by the general ofllce'rs for a period of seven years. On a $1,000 , certltlcntt1 each as sessment was $2.30. n fid the number of as sessment ranged from. ! . 17 to 18 per .annum. The cost of the certificate was about )00 ) , nud on that investment the order promised ; o return a protlt of nearly $700 , or $100 net ler annum ou an investment of f5. !

When the concern went , into . the hands of a receiver , . Jjisfr * * ' fnllj it was found jthat' gllt-edgo" securities were hypothecated .for < 3 temporary T loans , thousands of dollars werb squandered In speculative investments , and lavish sums were sequestered iu , insolvent banks. The squandering of the order's Income was not the cause of the wreck.

Gigantic as those swindles were and wide spread the distress wrought by them , thny have not deterred schemers from openly preying on the pcoplo. A now form , of the craze to got something for nothing "devel oped In the west within the past few years. The collapse of real estate booms throw a Hock of promoters and hustlers on their wits' end for a living. At llrst the national plan of building and loan association served as a profitable tlyor. Legislation In a ma jority of tbo states chocked this promising system of ilimncicrmg and spoiled the urotlls of the munairors. Other methods of preying upon the gullible , free from legal restric tions , had to bo sought. Thu launching of bond Investment schemes opened a now Held of protlt for the promoters and of much promise for patrons. Combining the ele ment of chance as nn attraction and without legal restriction or supervision , the bond scheme surpassed a brace game in the cer tainty of the promoters winning. Within two years bond companies have multiplied rapidly in the west and are enjoying u nour ishing business , as is shown by frequent an nouncement of the formation of now com panies. These disguised lottery promoters huvo at last attracted thu attention of statoand fcd- ornl authorities. That they have escaped so far is duo to quiet methods of operation and to public IndllTcrence , but exposure by the press and demand for action by the authorities have paved thu way to their sup pression. Some months ago the Hocky Mountain News ventilated the nefarious bond schemes operated In Denver. It was shown that they were lotteries pure and simple , and u demand wns made upon the federal author ities lor their suppression. The matter wns referred to the authorities in Washington , with tno result that on Thursday last , K. P. Brown , president , nnd Charles W. McCrono. secretary , of the Denver Investment Bond company , were arrested by the United Slales marshal on the charges of using the malls to defraud and violating the statutes prohibit ing thu sending of lottery matter through the postoflleo. DoUilN of tlio I'lnn. The plan of tno Denver concern is a com mon ono In this section , A $1,000 bond Is Issued to applicants on payment of $10 as n Ixmus for getting In. This $10 goes to the company without reserve as Its reward for carrying on thtfMjustness. Kach sub scriber is then expected to pay $ S a month until thn bond is paid. a It is iu the uncer tainty of this time of .payment nnd tbo con sequent number of hirf- i/istallmenu that thu whole claim of the civme lies. Of each i payment 25 per cent.T ! } taken by thu com pany for expense mm'S ' ! ) per cent more sous ton "reserve fund , " whlcb is to glvo amaz ing prolits lo those vrTO stick to the game without weakening , " "I no great profits are to bo derived from lapses I. o. , failure to make n monthly paVidtmt within a month' after It is duo operares SB n forfeiture of all payments mado. The , .remaining $1 of the monthly payment Is 'ueliosltcd Iu it general fund , mid Is npphci'l'to the payment of a bond when the fund nnibunts to $1,000. HV o "Tho Whllo bonds are numbered consecutively , the particular bond to bo paid U not necessarily - sarily tbo ono bearlnt'tliu lowest number. The promoters adopted a plan whoso com plexity < md obscurity made itdlflleult for an ordinary man to say that No. 41,144 would bo just us lucky us No. Hi. Bond No. 1 is paid Ilrst , then the multiple of three twice , then revert back to the tlrst Issued unpaid bond ( provided It is not forfeited for nonpayment of dues ) and then paying thu double multiple of three again , and so onuntll ull unforfelted bunds are paid. Of course , Iho first thought of every pros pective buyer wns how to got an early pay ing number , but the Denver concern was careful to issue bonJs numbered In the order In which applications were received. And yet this rule la now proving the destruction ] of thu whole syitem. In an Interview the Denver post- ottlco inspector says : "Wu have these follows domino at either end. If .thoy have done what they claim and absolutely do- cliiiu to allow people to uhooso thuir uuui- bors , then the whole thing hns boon : \ mat ter of chnnuo and .thoy have vlolalod the lottery lawi If , howtjvor , they have not done ns' they clalmrd , then they have used the malls'to defraud. " , The Inspector further saM thnl It was remarkable -tho extent of territory ever which the 'company op ratod. lt < t letter * were sent t6 Cincinnati , SU I-oul , Frecport , 111. , Spokane , Wash. , to Iowa towns , to South iJ.ikdta ami Arizona nnd throughout Colorado. 11 P. Brown , the president of the com pany , was formerly connected with banks In' lown and South D.ikota towns , nnd this fact was proudly paraded In the company's lltura- turo it * ovlitenco of hluh ohnraotcr nnd sol vency. According to Denver papers , a.s soon us Brown discovered that thu game w.is up , ho attempted to dodge responsibility by claiming ho had resigned ns pivsldent. It was shown , however , that since thu lime ho claimed to have resigned ho wont right along , signing papers as president of tho' company. Three of n Kind. There nro probably nix bond companlns operating from Omaha and Council Bluffs , whoso methods vary but IltUiS from that of the discredited Denver concern. Of this number three will ro- celvo attention nt present , They nro the Equitable Investment company of Council Bluffs , the People's Investment company , and the Nebraska Gtiarnntoc , Savings and Investment company of Omnha. The ICqultablo Issues bonds of ? IUOO on n cash payment of $10 and n further payment of ! pur month until maturity of the bond. Forty cents of the $ 3 monthly duos goes to pay the expenses of the compMiiy. With ordinary hustling tlm officers ought to got. along comfortably nnd wax fiiton'ix rnko-otl of SO per cent of the income hi addition to the $10 Initiation foo. The balance of the monthly dues goes Into n trust fund for the redemption of bonds. The bonds are mini- bored consecutively. As .soon ns there la $1,000 In the trust fund , bond No. 1 is called In nnd cancelled. As soon ns another $1,000 Is accumulated bond No , U Is redeemed ; the next No. I ) . Then the little joker jumps back to number a , noxtl ) , 13 , 4. 15 , 18 , ft. ll ! , -4 , nnd so on. Three Is the mystic number. Ono bond of a consecutive number Is paid , then two multiples of U. According to the table , bond 1UJ Is pall before bond fK ) . The Equitable scheme is exactly llko that of the Denver concern nnd should receive llko treatment. The plan has n'o cumulative feature. Money Is not Invested for a prollt. It Is simply collected from dupes on n mar gin of " 0 pur cent and paid back : on the 7-11-77 order. Nor is there n prac ticable method of winding up the affairs of the concern should cir cumstances donmiid it. Cancellation of n bond ends the holder's obligations to the company , nnd ns there Is not more than $1,000 In the treasury nt any time it follows that these who nro In nt the close may bo out tliolr total payments. Failure to make the monthly payments within llftcen days after the same Is duo subjects the bondholder to u fine of $1 upon $ j , and If the line nnd dues are not paid within the ensuing ten days the bond is canceled and nil payments thereon con fiscated. No matter whether the amount is ? - , > 4 for one year or SIS ) for flvo years the entire sum Is conllscated by thu company. Lapses are proclaimed as a rich source of profit. It bellts a concern which assumes no risk , Is liberally paid for handling -other people's money and is under no legal or other obligation to fulfill its promises. Tlio fact that it is Incorporated under the laws of Iowa affords no guarantee of solvency or responsibility. There Is no law In Iowa restricting bond companies , excepting the lottery law. or nn Omnlin Flyer. Th'o Nebraska Guarantee , Savings and In vestment company of Omaha enlarges on the Denver and Council Bluffs lottery plans. Like these concerns Itusos the mystic in ulltploof H , but instead of reverting back to a consecu tive number-after two multiples , the plan Is carried on in this way : Bond No. 1 is first cancelled , then ! 1 , next 0 , 27. 81 ; then the | oker Jumps back to 2 , 0 , 18. 54 , 102 , "and ( to ijuoto the literature of the company ) contin uing until the multiple extends beyond the number of bonds sold , when payment will re vert back and bonds will bo paid in their numerical order , until by additional sales of bonds the suspended multiple is < ronchcd , when that number will bo paid , and this method of paying shall bo continued until nil unpaid , unforfolted and uncanccled Bonds shall hnvo reached their ultimate value , which hi no event shall exceed ton years. " Hero comes In another specimen of bond financiering. According to section 0 of the company's bond , after a member hits paid ISO monthly Installments of $5 each the holder is entitled to u paid up bond for $1,000. , But he does not got the cash right away. The company guards ugnlnst the sudden en richment of u member by providing In the same section as follows : "And the said paid up bond for $1,000 shall bo payable , to gethcr with its pro rata share of the earned and accumulated prolits ns then apportioned * * * upon or before the expiration of ten years from the date of issue of the aforesaid paid up bond. " That is to say , n bloated bondholder who has paid his installments regularly , but failed to bit the mystic com bination In ten years , will have his persist ency rewarded with u promise to pay ton years later. The plan of the Nebraska Is not only a violation of the federal law which caused the arrest of the Denver promoters. It Is also a transparent attempt to evade the Ne braska law governing building and loan as sociations. The law explicitly provides that association of tlvo or more members collect ing a fund by stated weekly or monthly pay ments and loaning the fund so collected among its members shall bo governed by the provisions of the law. The Ne braska Guarantee , Savings and In vestment company collects a fund by monthly payments and agrees to loan holders ot bonds sums of $1,000 or less on proper security and on terms similar to building and loan associa tions. The forfeiture plan , prohibited by the state law , Is a part of tlio Nebraska plan , and this , In addition to a rake-off of 10 per cent of all receipts , forms a snug income for the managers. There are other features that need not bo elaborated. Suftleient is shown to warrant action by the national and state authorities. Dropped thn Joker , The People's Investment company of Omaha differs from the Denver and Council Bluffs concerns In ono respect. It does not operate the mystic multiple of three , Bonds are redeemed in consecutive order , "Wo found the multiple system did not work satisfactorily , " said the company's agent to Tin : BEB , "and dropped It after wo were taken In to AOIIIO extent. " The Pcoplo's Investment company oper ates practically on the tontine system a system In vogue among Insurance companies In years past. It wns found to bo unjust uml open a variety of fraud , and has been outlawed by conservative states like Massa- ehusells. The chief source of prollt , aside from a 17 per cent tlno for nonpayment of dues , is in forfeitures , No matter how much a holder of a bond pays In , failure to make n payment within thirty days after It Is duo works a forfeiture of the enliro sum , The company parades this element of prollt with much emphasis , pointing out that a Inrgo part of the Income of llio inuurano companies is derived from lapses , and asserts that the same principle may bo fairly put In operation oy invoslment companies , The comparison Is far-fotcliod. Very few life Insurance companies operate on a continuous lapse system. I'Jvcn whore state law docs not restrict them , the general rule Is that after thrco annual payments the Insured may discontinue nnd receiveelthern reduced paid up policy or a portion of the payments mnde. lOven if lapses were enforced , life In. suranco companies have some justification In the rlslc assumed , The Investment com pany assumes no rlsic whatever , isatpresent without legal restriction , and furnishes no adequate security guaranteeing the iulllll- mont of its promises. Bond companies , llko the endowment craze and the Iron Hall venture , are deemed to early death , and these who Invest m them nro sure to come out.of the small end of the horn , Sued for l > uniUE 9. Ed Ii , . Thomas , A traveling salesman for the East Liverpool ( O. ) Pottery company , has brought suit ugaluit the Western Union Telezntph company for $125 , claiming that he was damaged to that extent by the failure of thu defendant to deliver certain telegrams sent him b > hln employers during1 the week between May 17 and 24 last , thereby causing him a delay of eight days la Omaha when ho should Imvo been out on the road , m\K'U \ to thu detriment of hi * business.
