The recent decided developments In ex
position matters have hnJ Hie effect of stir
ring up a great deal of enthusiasm which
hail hecomo rather latent , and a much
stronger feeling of confidence has been mani
fested during the past week or two than has
been shown at any previous time. On every
cldo are heard expressions of the strongest
approval of the action of the Hoard of Di
rectors In changing the site , and the only
criticisms heard are to the effect that It was
unfurtunato that the fair grounds site was
not selected In the first placo. The effect of
this change has been to cause subscribers to
pay their assessments on stock , and the
money has been coming In at a lively rate.
The effect upon the exposition Itself , how
ever , Is .not . the only result which has fol
lowed the encouraging developments of the
past few days. The positive Indications
that thu actlvo work upon the exposition
was to bo pushed with all possible speed
i lias had the effect of causing property values
; In the neighborhood of the exposition grounds
to show a sudden upward tendency. All
vacant property In that neighborhood has
suddenly acquired a value which was not
druamcil of a month ago , and the market In
options ! has gene up llko a balloon , with no
Indications of coming down. Every hour
In the day sees a largo number of people ex-
aiivlnlng the properly In that vicinity with a
view of establishing stores of various kinds ,
The people want to either buy or lease ,
and those fortunate eiiojgh to own land in
that part of the city are being eagerly
bought.
The work of making a topographical sur
vey of the ground Is proceeding rapidly.
As the work progresses maps are made of
the grounds In order that there may bo no
delay In determining upon the grading , etc. ,
necessary to be done.
WILL DR A WHITE CITY.
The exposition will be a "white city. "
Tills has been decided upon , mainly for thu
reason that It will be Impracticable to give
It any other color. It Is conceded that the
material to be used In covering the largo
bulldltiga , such as the Agricultural building ,
the Machinery and Electricity buildings , thu
Manufactures and Liberal Arto building , etc. ,
shall be the stucco material known as staff ,
being the material which was used so ex
tensively In the World's fair. These buildIngs -
Ings will all bo of a temporary character ,
designed to bo removed after the exposition
closes.
It was demonstrated at Chicago that staff
Is the most effective , as well as the most
economical , material which can be used for
Kiich purposes. The World's fair manage
ment , after spending thousands of dollarn
In experimenting , demonstrated that It was
Impossible to give the staff a tint. The
natural color of llio material was a dazzling
white and all efforts to give It a creamy-
tint or an "old Ivory" tint , or any other
tint , wcro failures. The Transmisslsslppl
management will profit by the experience
of the Chicago people and will not lose any
time or money experimenting. It was sug
gested by Mr. Ilosowatcr , while this sub
ject was utder discussion by the executive
committee , that there Is a large bed of
natur.U cement almost equal to the imported
article , whlcl Is to bo had In the northern
part of this state for the hauling , and the
idea of using this material for making
stucco , wh.'ch ' would give a , natural stone
"effect , was discussed , but-ltfcwas concluded
that tuoro , wasxiio time for .experiments aud
the matter was allowed to drop. .
' -There' will bo several gateways to the ex
position grounds , and It lias been suggested
by Manager llosowater that the parties In
terested in the development of the various
kinds of building stone In the western
states be asked to construct towering arch
ways of attractive deslgna at these gate
ways , thereby displaying the artistic quali
ties of the stoiio and Itn adaptability for such
work , as well as embellishing the exposition
grounds. This suggestion met with favor
with the executive committee , ami some of
the stone men In this city have signified
their dcblre to taku advantage of such an
opportunity.
REGARDING THE UUILDING.
The tracks of the licit Line railway cut
off about twenty acres of the north cud of
the exposition grounds , and it is proposed
to move the tracks temporarily from their
present position , up to Ames avenue. If
this la agreed to by tintMlsourl Pacific com
pany it will allow the exposition manage
ment to Include within Its grounds the grove
of largo trees In the northwest corner of
Oak Chatham addition , near the Intersection
of Ames avenue and Twenty-fourth street.
U has been decided that In the construction
of the large main buildings of the exposi
tion , the construction of galleries shall be
tabooed. It In said that the experience of
other expositions where gallorlea wcro used
In the large building ? has been that the
exhibitors who were assigned space in the
galleries were greatly dinappolnled because
the people would not visit thesa exhibits
and the dust dropping upon the exhibits
below has been very annoying. It was

therefore decided that no galleries would be
plftc'd In the buildings ,
A siiRRcstlnn which ha * met with great
favor with the executive committee Is ono
which contemplates the placing of the
fluherlca exhibit tinder ground. It Is
proposed that the huge tanks tn which will
be Imprisoned the monsters of the deep and
the beauties of the mountain brooks shall bo
nlaccd beneath the surface of the ground In
a subterranean Btructure lighted by
electricity and properly embellished to make
It a cool retreat from the heat of the day.
This Idea Is taken from th * great Paris ex
position where A department constructed
along these name lints formal ono of the
most attractive nnd popular exhibits. It Is
th purposa to have In this exhibit the faro
and curious monsters which Inhabit the tin-
Been recesses of the great oceans , as well
as the more common members of the
piscatorial family. It Is the opinion of the
management that an underground exhibit ot
this nature would form a most attractive
feature of the exposition.

From yesterday until the possible period
when It shall bo declared unconstitutional ,
the newly adopted curfew law will go Into
cHect. Nominally the ordinance has been
In effect since Its passage , but Chief of
Police Slgwart did not rccelvo a copy until
yesterday. The text was read for the
first time to the police shift last night nnd
will bo read to the dnji shift , this morning ,
and thu olHccrs will bo Instructed to en
force the provisions from this time on.
The new ordinance Is not as stringent as
the old one wlik-h was declared unconstitu
tional by the district court. In the first
place It docs not allow the authorities to
place the arrested child In confinement as
the other ordered. Again the now law
provides that the parents or guardian of a
clvlld arrested shall he fined and not the
child. In other respects the two ordinances
are about alike.
The law provides that no children under
the age of 14 years shall be allowed upon
the streets after 9 o'clocK from March 1 to
August 31 , an-1 after 8 o'clock between Sep
tember 1 to the last day of February unless
accompanied by parent or guardian or while
In the performance of an errand or duty or
while engaged In some employment. It Is
further ordered , however , that the police
shall arrest a child If It Is loitering or playIng -
Ing on the public streets whether or not It
Is In the care ot parent or guardian or on
an errand -or whllo employed.
The police are authorized to arrest the
offending cl.lidren without a warrant , take
them to the polled station and retain them
there , but not confine them In any manner.
The parent or guardian ehall nt once be
notified of the arrest and told to come after
the prisoner. The ordinance does not pro
vide for punishment for the first offense , but
states that If the parent or guardian falls
to eare for and restrain the child In the fu
ture hu may be fined In any sum under $25.
This Is the sfcine fine as that provided by the
old ordinance.
The new law gives the police judge con
siderable oversight over the welfare of chil
dren. In cases where children arc found
and picked up repeatedly on the street he
Is given authority to make an Investigation
and If he finds the offending children in
corrigible , he Is further authorized to begin
proceedings to scud them to the reform
school. _

ting fire to a freight car , the two accusations

SupiioHed to Have lleen Murdered ami

NASHVILLE , March 24. News reached
the city today that the residence of Jacob
Ade , fifteen miles from the city on Paradise
ridge , burned last night. The bodies of
Jacob Ade , Mrs. Adc , Lizzie Ade , aged 20
years , their daughter , and Rose Morlcr , aged
10 years , who was visiting the family , were
found In the ruins of the building. Henry
Ade , aged 13 years , Is missing. Ado was
a well-to-do farmer. It Is supposed the
family were murdered and the house burned
to conceal the crime. The authorities are
investigating the case.
Searchers in the ruins of the house this
morning found the body of the missing
boy , burned to a crisp. The belief that
murder preceded the lire Is growing. The
principal evidence leading to this belief Is
tl fact that though the girl's face was
only slightly burned , the back of her head
was missing. It is thought that she was
struck by some such instrument as an ax. The
heads of two of the bodies were not found.
Mr. Ade was over 60 years old and was con
sidered a rich man by the truck gardeners
and small farmers among whom he lived
There Is no clew to the possible murderer
A roll of money , partially burned , was found
In an oyster can In the ruins.

For a Dollarfice.
We arc selling , this spring , some very good looking
Junior Suits for little lads of 4 to 8 years old , They
are not "elegant" suits , They are not worth two
dollars and a half. They arc good substantial cassi-
m re suits made from nearly all wool material with a
little fancy braiding , and they will give more than a
dollar's worth of wear. We are selling children's
suits for remarkably little this spring. _ On account
of the market conditions we thought it was a good
time to lay'in a larger stock than usual , and if prices
are lower than ever it's because we had that in mind.
While we have a great many suits at $4.00 to $6.00 ,
and a great many at one to two dollars , our heaviest
assortment is from $2.50 to $3.50 , and at these prices
we surpass any house in the country for values and
styles. Our line of Junior and Reefer Su ts at § 2.50
is the finest ever seen in Omaha and its strong points
are , first variety , second value , third wear. \ \ e guar
