tjinten observances have assuredly held
down the movements of society nearly to
the limit of late , and If Ihc world , thn flesh
nnd the devil may be said to be typified by
anything so harmless as the frivolities of an
ordinary social noason , those three enemies
of the linrnnn soul nuy be Mid to bo at least
temporarily Ina Mate at complete subjec
tion , Tlut cln s of people , numerically con
siderable , which does not utrlelly observe
Lent , of course does not consider Itself
bound by chnrchly mandates , but many of
these who form other social circles nearly
aUU'd ' lo this one do feel HIP weight of such
oblUintlaiin , and It Is obviously dinicnlt to
get a largo amcmblage , of mixed faith , to-
Bother. Oood folk must still cat things , however -
over , without more thsn thn ususal regard
for llmc-t and seasons , and It la often pctt-
p.lblo to sclf-cl a suniclont menu , from ar
ticles not roicworn , to coiistiuct a very en
joyable chafing-dish meal , or a dinner mote
decorously nerved. Card ? still remain avail
able to rncny , and malt liquors are so neces-
nary to olh.tra as to take them out of the
category of things to bo given up. Hvsldcs ,
spring U on lt way , and , although Lent la
not yet half over , the resurrection time docs
not seam BO very far distant , when the
naughty trinity before mentioned will one
more take control of events.

First ward nnd Nols Turnqutet of the Second
ward were nominated for members ot the
Hoard of Education.
Waller Slate called the convention lo order
nnd , after the reading of the call by Lou
Kttor , Colonel A. L. . Lott waa unanimously
chosen 'chairman , U was n difficult mat
ter to dccldo upon a secretary , as every ono
nominated declined to serve. Finally it
was decided to allow Lou Kttcr to continue
as keener of the records. Vacancies In the
delegations wcro filled and after the action
of the primaries had been ratified , nomina
tions for members of the Hoard ot Education
were called for. The nominees werol W.
11. Wyman , A. L. Lott , N'ola Turmiulst , Wal
ter J. Slate , William Sherman , J. C. Bow-
ley. An Informal ballot wns taken , the vote
standing : Lott , 20 ; Turnqulst , IS ; Sherman ,
14 ; Wyman , 12 ; Slate , 11 ; Bowloy , 4. The
formal ballot resulted as follows : Lott , 28 ;
Wyman , 1C ; Turnqulst , 14 ; Sherman , 13 ;
Slnto , 12 ; Dem-Icy , 1.
A city central committee , composed ot
three members from each ward , was then

tus ; Third ward , John Mclntyre , John Frcldt ,

D. Sawyer , Joseph Stryelcckl.
Colonel A , L. Lott , ono of the nominees
from the Flrat ward , has been a resident of
the city for a number of years , and has been
secretary of the South Omaha Live Stock
exchange ever slnco It waa organized. Ho
is reputed to bo a particularly clean man ,
politically , nnd his friends say if elected ho
will Insist upon business methods lu tha
government of the schools.
W. B. Wymnn , the other First ward can
didate , Is also well known , being In charge
of the freight department of the Union 1'a-
pltlo nt this place. Ho Is also n thorough
business man , and adds strength to the
ticket.
Nels Turnqulst of the Second ward holds a
responsible position with the Omaha Packing
company nnd Is the choice of the Scandi
navian club of this city.
It Is conceded on nil sides that the placing
of Colonel Lott nnd Mr. Wyman on the ticket
will materially nld A. R. Kelly In securing n
seat In the city council.
HoiiHcn Clii.ieil.
All of the big gambling houses In this
city closed last night nnd possibly may
remain closed until after the election. In
fact the proprietors themselves do not know
just lion- long the tiger will bo kept under
cover. This action Is not on account of any
protest from the city ofHclals , but Is due
partly to the Municipal league und partly
to the friends of tlio Peyton boys. Two of
the Peytons are In jail on a charge of hav
ing shot and robbed Blanche Kennedy some
time ago. When the Peytons were found
guilty their friends went to work to try
and get even and with the assistance pf a
couple of local attorneys have done what
th ? administration declined to do. Word
was sent down here yesterday that a raid
was to bo made last night and so the hint
was taken and the principal places closed.
The Diamond , which wns operated by Ken
nedy , Morrison and others Is to be closed
permanently , but the others expect to open
again as soon as this llttlo difficulty with
the Poytons Is settled.
Members of the Municipal league have been
talking over the matter and some action
may bo taken to keep the places closed all
of the time.
