Frederick Van Scggcrn , superintendent of
the Provident Life Insurance company , lias
filed a complaint against his assistant ,
Arthur Sperling , for embezzlement.
Mr. Van ScKRcrn saya thai Sperling had
been doing collecting on quarterly premium
policies and other policies , upon which part
of the premium was payable monthly. Hu
was empowered to glvo receipts for money
collected , but In making returns to hla
company he turned over a. portion of the
Btnounts collected , retaining the balance
lilmself , notwithstanding ho gave a receipt
In tull to the parties from whom the amounts
were collected. The Individual amount was
usually less than $10 and Sperling would
lurn over probably $5. In the aggregate
these figured up quite a sum , and when the
report was made the total shortage was so
great that Mr. Van SeKgern told Sperling
that collections must be falling off ; that the
returns were not what they should bu.
Finally the superintendent became aus
picious. About two weeks ago ho said to
Sperling : "I would like to go over your
list with you , I am afraid you have made
come mistakes. " The young man was
greatly abashed.
"Why , the idea , " he said , "don't you trust
me ? "
This was on Saturday , nnd the following
Monday was the day fixed for going over the
accounts. The Sunday Intervening Sperling
left home , telling his wife ho Was going out
of the city on business and would return In
three days. He has not put In an appear
ance.
Sperling was a young man of good habit" ,
nnd the only vlco that Mr. Van Seggcrn thinks
lie might have fallen Into is gambling. Mrs.
Sperling Is heartbroken , and so are the friends
of the young man , among whom ho was well
liked. He had a good position and largo
salary.
Sperling was bonded In the American
Surety company , which will make good his
shortage , which , as far as his accounts have
been gone over , U about $100 , but Mr. Van
Scggern thinks It will be much larger than
this when the examination Is complete.
Don't Dclity.
It Is your duty to yourself to get rid of
the foul accumulation In your blood this
eprlng. Hood's sarsaparllla Is just the
medicine you need to purify , vitalize and
enrich your blood. That tired feeling which
nffecls nearly every one In the spring Is
'driven off by Hood's Sarsaparllla , the great
spring medicine and blood purifier.
Hood's Pills become the favorite cathar
tic with every one who tries them.

BOARD OF HEALTH.
Inspectors I'rollt ) > y DliBriiKlon Condition
of Union PiU'lllc Depot.
Tliero was a deadlock In the Board of
Ilcalth'ycstcrday on the question of the rq-
moval of three Inspectors as directed by the
retrenchment resolution of the city council.
When the resolution was received Commis
sioner Savlllo laid off Inspectors Albrccht ,
Smith and Landergren and reported the fact
to the board yesterday. Druner kicked on
the suspension of Albrccht , and Duncan
wanted Smith retained or else the suspension
of three Inspectors alternately each month.
The motion to approve the action of the
commissioner was lost , McAndrews siding
with the dissatisfied members and the mayot
and chief of police voting with the commis
sioner.
Landergren was finally suspended on ac
count of the charges filed by Councllmen
Back , Howcll and Parker , stating that ho
had Insulted them while lobbying In the In
terests of an additional health appropriation
and then the fight was renewed on the other
two vacancies to be created. Duncan's mo-
tlon to lay oft two Inspectors each month
alternately was lost by the same division
as before and then he successively moved
that each of the other Inspectors , except
these suspended by the commissioner , be
suspended. The question was lost In each
Instance on the some tie vote , and the mat
ter finally ended with no suspensions and all
the Inspectors except Landergren are still
drawlng.pay. ,
The garbage matter was treated In a
similar fashion and * after a long wrangle
was laid over until the next meeting. Chief
Seavey moyed that It was the sense of the
board that the garbage should be removed
atthe expense of the city and that the city
council be requested to pass an ordinance
to .that effect , s This was lost , Bruner , Dun
can and McAndrews voting In the negative.
Commissioner Savlllo proposed that dumps
bo designated at the foot of Davenport street
and Popploton nvenue , but this failed to
find favor. Tile applications of Charles
ScJilcgeL John Nordstrom anil , the Washing
ton Creamery company for -milk licenses
-were favorably considered.
Health Commissioner Savllle's report on
the sanitary condition of the. Union Pacific
depot was : '
"That the building Is Inadequate for the
accommodation of the large number of
people assembled there at 'the time of the
arrival and departure of passenger trains. .
In such cases , In cold weather , the. building'
being without ventilation , thn air becomes
heated and foul and Is only relieved by
opening the door and permitting the cold
air to sweep through the rooms , subjecting
these of delicate constitutions to colds
dangerous to health and often to life. The
plumbing fixtures are not of the best class
and are carelessly cared for as shown by the
absence of a valve In the trap which
permits of a discharge of foul
air from the sewer Into the room. OpenIngs -
Ings in the floor permit washings of the
floors , particularly of the closets , to saturate
the ground beneath the building , promoting
decay of the timbers and decomposition of
organic matters In the soli , the emanation
from which returns to the rooms through
these openings , contaminating the air of the
whole building. This badly built wooden
structure being set low on a porous i > ell , satu
rated with the drainage from the building
and adjacent grounds , offering the best con
ditions for decay , Is every year becoming
m6ro dilapidated and dangerous. In my
opinion the city of Omaha should not permit
such a building to remain a menace to the
life 'and health of tjle traveling public. "
Mr. .Duncan's report , stated that the water
closets did not fliiEhquckly ! enough to be
strictly sanitary , and that the absence of a
continuous flow In the urinals caused a dis
agreeable odor , that escaped into the waitIng -
Ing rooms and was very offensive. Ho rec
ommended that these matters bo attended to
and that a double ventilating shaft be con
structed In eaph closet room.
The board adjourned to meet next Mon
day , when n special committee , consisting
of Bruncr , Savillc nnd Seavey , will report
on the charges against Inspector Landergren.
COUNTY COMMISSIONER.
Clinrles IF. Hrown'H l.cttitr Opposing I'latto
Itlvur Ciimil llonun ,
At the mooting of the county commis
sioners , held yesterday afternoon , Charles
II. Brown filed a communication relative to
the proposed voting of j'l.OOO.OOO Of bonds
to aid In the construction of the Platte river
canal , Ho was of the opinion that the Is.
suancc of such bonds to old a private enter
prise would bojllegal and void. U there wa *
to bo a canal built , ho thought that It should
bo constructed , owned and operated by the >
county , especially If the greater portion ot"1
the expense was to bo berne by the taxpayers
payersof the- county , Uegardlng the call
ing of n special election , he ga\o It as his
view that the canal company should show
enough faith In the project to put up tliu
expenses of holding the special election. Tlio
communication was referred to the commit
tee of the whole.
Juilgo Lake , special attorney for the
Board of County Commissioners , gave It us
his legal opinion that the Odd Fellows' prop.
orty at Fourteenth nnd Dmlge streets was
not exempt from taxation , not coming under
that class of property that was used for
charitable , or religious purposes.
The request to cancel the taxes on the
Young Men's Christian association property
for the years 1SD2 , 1S03 and 1891 was re
jected , the commissioners holding that they
had no authority for striking the property
from the tax rolls of the county.
Outstanding warrants against the hospital
building fund aggregating $ S71 were ordered
paid :
The salary of the stenographer In the ofllce
of the county attorney was Increased from
$10 to $45 per month.

West Point ,
HAYDEN BROS1. CLERKS' BIG EXCURSION
*
Cloven Conchcft 1'ull uf Happy Kicurnlon-
IsU Who Cnino Homo After nn Outing
tlmtAililcilXotv I.found ( Smoothed
Out Homo of C'nro'a Wrinkles.
There Is a saying to the effect that the
atmospheric conditions arc such as to produce
Ice when everybody Is pleased , but yesterday
disproved that statement nt least as far as
the 700 Jolly plcnlccrs who attended Hoyden
Dros. excursion to West Point were con
cerned.
Eleven coaches carried Into Omaha last
night one of the best pleased crowds that
ever tired themselves out In having a rous
ing good time , each after his or her own
particular style of fun. The train had not
pulled out of Omaha ten miles before mothers
and fathers ceased to tell the children they
shouldn't do so and so , and from that time
on you could put sand or a chunk of Ice
down your neighbor's back and It Is doubtful
If you could arouse a "kick. " Good nature
was catching.
The ride In Itself was most delightful and
refreshing. The day was an Ideal one , and
Messrs. Jamleson and Iscnsee , who arranged
the excursion can congratulate themselves on
having taken out of Omaha a party that
represented the best clement of the city's
population BO far as orderly conduct was
concerned. The cars were decked with
streamers and star spangled bunting , and the
train of two engines , ono "commissary" and
eleven coaches reached West Point about
11 o'clock. A reception committee , headed
by Hon. Otto Uanmann , met the excursionists
at the depot , and accompanied by the Wlsner
band , led the way through the town to a
handsome natural grove , where tables , set
tees , swings am ! a dancing platform had
been provided by the reception committee.
There was no formality about the reception.
The party was Informed that It owned the
town and to go In and make the best of It.
When the city council learned that the plc"-
nlcers were coming they got together ,
slicked up the town , hung out banners of
welcome and otherwise exerted themselves to
please. That's the sort of town West Point
Is. If there ever was a small-soulcd man
In West Point he left long ago , because he
felt lonesome. The ubiquitous Fred Son-
ncnschcln Is a whole reception committee
In himself. If the trees wern't located In
just the right spot to suit an Individual he
would have them pulled up by the roots and lo
cated elsewhere. Such Is the opinion of the
plcnlcers.
Some of the party went fishing , some boatIng -
Ing , some went bathing , some lay In their
hammocks , while others took part In the
numerous games or danced to the music of
the Seventh Ward band , which was engaged
for the day by Hoyden Dros. The flrm
also furnished seventy-five gallons of ice
cream , barrels of lemonade , 500 loaves of
bread , boiled hams , beef nnd everything
needed for the hungry or the thirsty.
The West Point creamery furnished the
treat of the day. They brought several hun
dred gallons of buttermilk. They also fur
nished delicious rolls of the celebrated West
Point creamery butter , enough to supply all.
THE GAMES.
The contests for the ten prizes were
handled to good advantage and complete
satisfaction by Charles N. Gurley and J. E.
Preston , the former acting as starter and
the latter as judge and time keeper , with
P. J. Byrnes as master b'f ceremonies. '
The results were as follows :

The communication stated that all annoy
ance could be largely avoided by proper care
In drying and burning , so long as there
were no more children In the school. It
would be wholly Inadequate when the school
was entirely occupied , nnd It was suggested
that dry closets bo abandoned when sewers
and water were available. J. II. Wlnspear

the report.

wise an imported cheviot oxford cut , silk serge lined
suit , carefully tailored is worth $15.00 any day Don't
you think so ?
