ho probable cost of the bridge on Mynster
trcct which It Is proposed to put acro& !
nJlan creek. Ho IB in favor of moving the
.Iain . street bridge to Mynster street. The
.tain . street bridge Is nearly worn out anil Is
oo narrow for n street upon which there Is
o much travel as Main. It will soon have
o come down any way and new beams be put
n. The change could be made without nearly
.ho cost of building a new bridge'an 1 Main
treet could then have a new and wider
ridge.
. An Iron bridge similar to that on North
Ixth street could bo put In at a cost of some-
hlng lew than $7,000. The council , however ,
s salJ to be In favor of building a culvert on
he plan suggested some time ago to cover
he creek from the west line of Main street
.0 the cast line of IJryant. This would re-
[ ulro about 170 feet of masonry. The en-
.Ineer luw drawn plans for this culvert , which
vould bo of hrlclc , with an Inside diameter of
ourtecn feet and a concrete foundation two
nd a half feet deep on each side. A seven-
een-lnch wall would be required , and the
: est of Bucli a culvert Is estimated at WO per
'oot ' , making tliu total expense slightly over
1,000
To make such a culvert practicable a sys-
cm of < lams would have to be constructed
iast of tlio city , and tlic council has been
ierlously conslJerlng whether It would not bo
ihcarcr eventually to do this than to spend
: nonoy for bridges , which would have to be
enewcd from time to time , and to spend
money each year In paying off damages for
iverflows. The ground was surveyed some
Imo ago end a spot In Garner township a
mile and a half east of the city limits was
elected as the proper place tor the dam. ? .
The land Is practically worthless , and It Is
aid the owners would walvp all damages ,
'he dams would be twenty-live or thirty feet
n height and would hold a volume of water
ulllclent to prevent any overflow that might
iccur. The water would be allowed to run
iff In quantities that would not fill the creek
iunks too full , and d&Uructlve freshets would
be things of the past.
The cost of the system of dams Is estl-
mateJ at $4,000. The question that Is bother-
ng the aldermen Is where to get the money
lo pay for It. There Is no fund from which
money could be taken for such a purpose ,
unless It Is the tower fund , and upon thl. ?
he council Is somewhat divided.

Today closes the most successful race
meeting ever held on the famous old Union
park course. There never has before been
such a string of horses on any race track
In the west. There are a few people whenever
never appreciate a good thing until it's
past , and they arc Just realizing that the
attractions during every day of the four
teen days' course were greater than on
many of the crack eastern tracks , and the
average time heats oven Oravesend. To
day will be the last chance for these people
and the thousands of othrs who have en
joyed the long run of fine racing. Thoraces
races today will be the most novel and ex
citing of the whole course. The card calls
for six races , with nearly 100 entries , In
cluding all of the best horses that have
broken records during the course. The
sixth will bo the gentlemen's road race , one
mile , and the following well known young
gentlemen will bo the riders : IJert Wood
bury , L. Xurmuehlen , Jr. , T. C. Dawson
Thomas Metcalf , George S. Wright , Pan
Aylesworth , George Mayne , Ned Everett
Ilerm Ogden and Lloyd Griffith. These are
the Council Dlufls Jockeys. The Omaha
contingent has not been named , but there
will bo several well known young men up
Some of the boys are skilled riders , bu
many of them have never ridden anything
but a hobby horse and a bicycle. It wll
bo grand sport , full of events , fun and ex
cltcment. People who do not go to the
park today will miss the event of the sea
son. The races will commence at 2 o'clock
Cunt Off by Ills Itcliktlvra.
William nallard , an eccentric character S3
years of age , has been kept at the Woman's
Christian Association hospital ever since lat < t
January as a charity patient , and now the
ladles are trying to Induce the Board o
Supervisors to take him In charge and pay
for his keeping. Yesterday Mrs. O. II. Lucas
and Mrs. M. F. Ilohrer appeared before the
board with this sort of a request. The ol <
man formerly lived In Audubon county , bu
three years ago left for Chicago , After stay
Ing there awhile he went to Fremon
county. Iowa , and finally drifted In to Councl
nluffs about six months ago. He peddle !
various articles about the street but fallec
to make his living. Ho was finally taken In
and given food and shelter by the Indies.
Mr. Hallard comes of a well known am
wealthy family. He Is a brother of the late
Dr. Dallard , wlioje widow still lives on Kirs
avenue , opposite Itayllss park , and Is one o
the wealthiest and most charitable ladles In
the city. Ho Is also a cousin of Congress
man Don Dutterworth of Ohio and Alderman
Dallard , a millionaire of Chicago. Mrs. Hal
lard gave him $10 a few weeks ago and a rel
ntlvo In Colorado $25 about the same time
and those two amounts , so far as Is known
are all ho has received since January.
L. Swearlngen , overseer of the poor , wa
asked to look after him , but declined to dose
so on the ground that hs had not acquire !
a residence here and was consequently no
legally entitled to assistance from the county
No action was taken by the board. Untl
the matter Is decided the ladles of the hot
pltal will have to care for him as a charity
patient , for they will not see him turned out
even though they are not able to keep hln
without remuneration.

WASHINGTON , June 5. T1te < rircslJinl Is
proceeding with deliberation fn , tj\'c \ selection
of a successor to the late Secretary Orcsham ,
It may be that he Is In correspondence with
some one touching hU appointment to the
cabinet and that the president , Mllowlng his
usual practice , refrains from allowing his In
tentions to become known until he Is as
sured that any offer lie may mak'p will surely
bo accepted. It Is assumed that the new
secretary of state will not1 be announced
until the cabinet Is again complete. So far
s It can be learned now the'fir'cildciit has
ot formally advised Attorney -Ueneral Olncy
f his wish that he should accept a transfer
o the State department , but It Is bclluved
hat In following this course the pros ! lent is
Imply waiting to make sure that he can nile
o his satisfaction the place that will be
acated by Mr. Olney.
Among the rumors this morning Is one to
he effect that after transferring Mr. Olney
o the State department the president will
ilaco Secretary Hoko Smith In the attorney
gcnsral's office and fill the office of secretary
f the Interior by the appointment of cx-
lovcrnor Francis of Missouri. It Is well
enown that the president has the kindest
eellngs toward Mr. Francis , and his appoint
ment would be In line with the policy the
'resident has leaned toward lately of rocog-
ilzlng the younger and progressive element
jf his party. Secretary Smith , being a
awyer by profession. Is also supposed to have
decided preference for the attorney goneral-
hlp. It Is now expected tint the prcsl-
lent will lave Washington for Gray Gables
arly next week , and therefore the announce
ment of the cabinet changes is looked for
cry shortly.

AVASHINGTON , Jnne,5. The psnslon case
if Judge Charles D. Long of Michigan , which
has been before the local courts In one former
or another for some time , was finally de-
ermlnetl today by the court of appals , the
lommlsslonor of pensions coming out vlc-
orlous , though the probabilities are the case
vlll now be taken to the supreme court of
he UnlUd States. About a year ago Com-
nlssloner of Pensions Lochren caused the
icnsion of Judge Long to be reduced from
75 to $50 per month. Subsequently the case
came before Judge Bradley of the district su
preme court and he decided In effect that the
CDinmlsEloner of pensions had no authority
'o reduce the pension. The court of appeals
oday reversed that decision , holding that a
pension Is not a vested right , except In a
ery limited sense , as shown by the act of
Jecember 2 , 1S93 ; that the courts cannot In-
erfjre in matters of this kind and that the
lenslon commissioner had a perfect right to
review the acts of his predecessors.

DENVER , June G. The United States
authorities arc on the warpath against cattle
companies and private Individuals guilty ol
fencing in public lands. J. E. Lewis ol
Morgan county , who acknowledged that he
appropriated 3COO acres to his personal use
and surrounded , the same with a wire fence
has been placed under a bond of $500 to
answer before Judge Hallet. It Is claimed
that hundreds of thousands of acrs o
public land In Colorado are shut off from
bona fide settlers by wire fences , some
cattle companies gobbling up whole town
ships and resisting every effort of settlers to
enter.
WASHINGTON , June 5. The fencing In
of large tracts of public lands by cattle com
panies or Individuals has recently received
a fresh Impetus. As yet It has not attained
anything like the proportions it had In 1SS7
when several million acrss were Illegally ap-
propriated. The evil has not become serious
enough to require drastic measures , but as
a numbsr of complaints have been received
district attorneys In the far west have been
Instructed to prosecute any one Infringing on
the public lands. In case this does not have
the desired effect , troops may bo asked for.

upon with certainty to cure obstinate , long
standing cases , and that Is the Pyramid I'llo
Cure.

Hev. Jas. II. Wesbrook of Downe , Mich. , maybe
bo of Interest to pile sufferers who have
sought In vain for a cure. He says :
I have used the Pyramid Pile Cure and I
krow that It Is all that la claimed for It. I
had been troubled with piles more or less for
about eighteen years and I had tried other
remedies , but the piles grew worse until
about ten months ago I used the Pyramid
Pile Cure. It gave almost Instant relief and
I have been free from piles ever since. Itev.
Jas. H. Wesbrook.
The remedy seems to act equally well ! n
every form of piles , blind , bleeding , pro
truding or Itching. It stops all pain almost
Immediately , allays Irritation and removes
constipation , and anyone who has suffered
the annoyance and pain of a rectal trouble

Dr. Duryea's successor In the pastorate of
ho First Congregational church was chosen
ast evening. He Is Rev. H. N. Wise of La-
aycttc , Ind.
The matter was determined at a meeting of
ho members of the church In the Sunday
chool room of the church and a very largo
attendance , caused by the Importance of the
litcstlon to be decided , was present. The
cctlon was unanimous , for Mr. Wise supplied
he pulpit for clx weeks during the latter
iart of January and the wholrof February
and create ! the most favorable Impression ,
both In the pulpit and In the homes of the
iicmberB. Though not yet 30 years old , ho Is
cgarded as a brainy man nnd a preacher of
nore than usual force. Indeed , ho was PO
veil liked while supplying the pulpit that the
eport then became current thiit ho had been
called to the pastorate.
Mr. Wlso Is the pastor of a Methodist
church at Lafayette , and when ho becomes
ustor of the First Congregational church he
mist become , according to ono of the rules
of the church , a member of the church. This
vlll not be dlftlcult , for ho has shown that
10 Is not n strict denonilnatlonaltst. When
supplying the pulpit here he was a stulent
at Iowa college , Grlunell , la. , a Congrogn- i
lonal Institution , being on n leave of absence
for six months from his paptorate at Lafay
ette. He went to Grlnncll chiefly to take
nstructlon under Dr. Herroti , In charge of
ho chair of applied Christianity , whoso
caching has called forth diverse comment
n several states.
Mr. Wlso's freedom from etrlctly denomi
national restraint Is further evidenced by the
fact that an effort was recently made to
ound a people's or non-sectarian church at
Lafayette , of which ho was to bo the pastor.
Not married now , It Is expected that the
lew pastor will como to Omaha with a wife ,
'or It was announced that he was to be
narrled the present month. H Is expected
hat he will como to Omaha about July 1.
Us salary wa fixed at $2,000.
The acceptance of the call Is regarded as
jcyond question.
