CUTTING DOWN EXPENSES Young Men.rB Christian Association Taking a Peep Into Its Purse , DECIDES "TO PRACTICE RETRENCHMENT llu.lcet fortlie Current Y ar Mnlcrlwlly Ilc- ( Inced bf I lie Hoard of Directors nt Die Ann mil Meeting I'ljii * tar Keeping Up the Work , The board of directors of the Young Men's Christian association held Its regular meeting Thursday evening at tlia association building and took up the plans ( or the work of the as- relation for the coming year. In looking forward to the winter and In consideration of the fact that on account of the llnanclal de pression the association liad run somewhat behind In Its receipts , Including a deficiency from lout year , the finance committee recom mended a very considerable reduction In the budget of expenses for the balance ol the fiscal year , to May 1 , 18D5 , ol $3,400. $ , Mr.Valtomeyer , the financial secretary , presented his resignation to take effect November 1. The reduction In expenses , while It will prevent the association from extending Its norh iia planned , will not lo any extent cut tloun the privileges of the association to young men. The salaries of the secretaries and employes of the association were all cut from 10 lo 15 per cent. More dependence will bo placed upon the volunteer services of the members than before lo assist In extend ing the work. The gymnasium \\l\l \ be opened on Monday evening next for the regular fall work , but without any special formalities at this time. The railroad men's class will be held at 11:30 : a. m. , theboys' class at 4 p. in. , the regular business men's anil lawerg' class at 5:15 : and the young men's class at 8:15. : Everything has been put In excellent order and will be under the direction of Mr. Cook as usual , aided by a corps of competent volunteer as- Hlstants. Plenty of dressing lockers are provided and arc ready tor the use of new members as rapidly as they may apply. The evening classes , will fully measure up to last year , and an exhibition of the best work of the Young Men's Christian associa tion classes of this country will take place In the parlors early In Octobrr , Just prior to the opening of the classes. A strong entertainment course U being aiinnged. and In addition to this n. course ol entertainment : by I lie best local talent will aUo begin In January , which will be at a very slight charge to the members. The membership committee reports that It has made a gain In the membership In tin last month , and that they now have 1,267 men on the rolls. Same decrease has been noted on account at members who have removed from the city. The reception committee has In mind a scries of receptions to be given to the young men of Omaha by the various young people's societies of the churches , also a scries of "Nights of Nations , " which will attract the young men of different nationalities to the as sociation. There Is also $ mteinplated a series of com mon sense talks on Ihe economy of living , establishing a home , getting along In life , etc. , nnd with as much sound advice as can be given by men who hate studied economy of house keeping , living , etc. They also plan to repeat the scries of law lectures and advanced bible training class as ar ranged last year , under the leadership of the most able man obtainable In the city.

While Mrs , Oakley , wife of the carriage gate keeper at Courtland Dcj.cli , was lightIng - Ing her gasoline stove last evening , her clothing caught fire. She rushed * to the door and called her husband , who was at the car riage entrance , and running to the house ho smothered the flames with a. quilt , Mrs. Oakley was , however , so badly burned be low the waist and on her hands and arms that lier recovery Is doubtful. Says M. W Selby. Muncle , 111. : "Last summer a coal miner came to my drug store one night , half dead with cramps. There was no doctor to be had. He asked mo If I had anything that would help him. I opened n bottle of Chamberlain's Colic , Chol era , and Diarrhoea Kemedy and gave him a large dose. In twenty minutes his pain was all gone.

HAD A'GOOD TIME ANYWAY. .Inrnlti Mnu' To ich .if IUKli l.lf _ riniln liuVm Not lCol.lt > il. Some days ago L. P. Jtosa reported at the police station nnd poured n tale of woe Into .ho ears of the membera of the detective force , telling them that he had been robbed of ? 700 In this wicked town. The sum being nrgor the detectives went to work upn the case , fully expecting to turn up a band of crcoks , though they did not think that they \roulil ever recover a cent of the money. Ytatcrday , however , the whole matter WJ3 cleared up , and according lo the story told jy Chief Haze , .Mr. Koss , who , by the way la a Lincoln man , Is nbut Ihe only Criminal connected with the case. The story as told by the chief la to the effect that Ross Is a married man and that some time aga he came iloun to Omaha , de positing $1,100 In one of the banks , after which , with a few hundred In his pocket , he prevailed upon a woman of the town to assist Mm In doing Colorado for a time. The woman was In for the trip , and after Iho c-uple had traveled the mountains for three wccl < s , they came back lo Omaha , after which Koss got on a roaring old drunk , Hiding up In a residence down on the row. After sobering up he started In to take an icroilnt of hi3 finances and discovered that he had but $100 , the rest of the money and the proceeds of the bank account having gone glimmering. It was then that he re ported the case to tbe police , claiming that he must have been robbed of $700 , If not more. Hoss. went back to Lincoln to tell several fairy tales concerning his whereabouts , while the detectives went out on the blind trail , shadowing numerous parties , but not a par ticle of evidence did they eectiro against any party. Finally , they found a doctor who was a friend of Hos& and this gentleman told the officers that he had $700 of the money which belonged to lioss. He had taken It from him nhen lie was on the drunk and had afterwards deposited It In one ol the banks , subsequently sending the man a check for the full amount. There the case Avas dropped , and yesterday Chief Huze received a letter from Hess , telling him that he could call off his sleuths , as he , had decided not to prosecute the Investiga tion any further. It Is a thousand pities that Mra. Potter did not begin ilicr , engagement with "In Society" at Hoyd'd Instead of the "Iron master , " which at boat \a \ a drama of limited scope. "In Society , " however , was given Its premiere before an Omaha audience last night , and the verdict wa quite In favor cl the stars and tlialr supporting company The play Is by Alexander Dumas , ills , Englished from "Frnncllllon , " uhlch was so Immensely successful a few years back. It Js a story ot today , with a decided leaning { owards the eroticism that so completely seems to have takoti hold of the English and French stage. Iff the" exclusion of. the homller virtues that were so Integral a part ot thodrama during the'iflrst half of the cpntiiry , While' there is1 a'-decTdtll ' moraMn the. story , brightly nnJ verj- cleverly told , It Is , doubtful If It , avails muclieiln the questionable shapd' , In which It Is prft. at the sacrifice almcel of teachings > ivhlch have stood for all that Is beatiln the- social world front tlle 'aforetl'ine. The' dialogue Is terse , very often epigram matic , and suggestive of "Lady Winder- mere's Fan , " which It more nearly resem bles In motif and manner of working out than any of the fin de selcle plays which treat of the marriage question and the rights ot husband and wife In a bold and uncompro mising manner. . As the faithful wlfo , who In aa unguarded moment almost brings the house of do Illverolles toppling about lior head , Mrs. Pot ter Is clearly at her best. She is required to play a society woman of Ihe best family and she plays Mrs. Potter. There Is no denying that the woman with the Titian hair can play a society woman to perfection. While she lacks the power to make her audiences forget that she Is acting. Mrs Potter last night was never commonplace , her French accent and her Introduction of French phrases being the only blemish upon an other wise creditable performance Yet this should not be considered a draw back , for U Is an In terpretation of the character ot Franclne , and as such must be seriously treated. Mr. Hellew was In splendid form and his Luclen deserved to be classed among the very best things that he has done. He was grace and polish Itself , and his bit of pantomime in the second act , when his wife tells htm that she has been untrue to him , was one ot the features of the performance. Asa whole the company was excellent. Mason Mitchell , as. Henri , has a part which lilted him like a glove , and his little love scene with Annette ( Pcrdlta Hudspeth ) he placed splendidly , as did the young lady. Miss Lisle Leigh showed a line contrast be tween the AthenaMs of Thursday night and the baroness of last night , a very pretty character , somewhat unreal , probably , but nevertheless In every sense refined , a woman of the world , but one with a heart in the right place.
