PROMOTERS OF THE SHOW IN GOOD SP.RITS Government Appropriation , Iiinurro the Conntrucllon cif n Fine llullil- fr Locution of ( he IlllnoU Structure In Jl * * The enactment of the sundry civil bill , karrylns with It the actual appropriation of $200,000 for a government building and ex- Jilblt , and the appropriation by the legislature of Illinois of $15,000 for an Illinois exhibit and building , put the exposition authorities In high feather this morning. Whllo the pausing ot the bill making the appropriation tor a government exhibit has never been In doubt , yet the fact that the appropriation was not available has added an element of uncertainty to arrangements re- eardlng the government building. Now that this uncertainty has been removed , active. ( work miy bo commenced by the government architects toward getting ready with their plans , etc. In reply to n qurotlon as to whether the delay on the part of the federal authorities . would be likely to Interfere with having the government building ready on time , Mr. 3Omb.il ! , ono of the archltccts-ln-chlcf , said this would not make any material difference. "Tho government building at Nashville , " aid Mr. Klmball , "was finished In six weeks from the time the foundation was laid. 1'cople have no Idea of the rapidity with fwhlch these staff covered buildings can be erected. The Nashvlllo building did not cost BS much money as our government building "will cost and la not so elaborate as the building we hope to have on our grounds , but there will bo little difference In the mount of constructive work on the two buildings , and the work may be hurried al most without limit. " "Wo will put the IlllnoU state building on the bluff tract. " said Architect Klmball this morning while speaking of the ap propriation made by the Illinois authorities for representation at the Transmlsslsstppl Exposition. The "bluff tract" Is that portion tion of the exposition grounds lying cast of Sherman avcnuo and Is about sixty acres In extent. From every portion of this tract a .View may bo bad of the Missouri valley for miles up and down the river , while the tract Itself Is almost as level as a floor. " 1 believe this tract Is the most sightly location that could bo selected for state buildings , " continued Mr. Klmball. "A part of this ground Is to bo beautifully parked and I bcltevo the surroundings of the state buildings will be such that this section of tbo grounds will bo ono ot the most popular places of the entire exposition. This tract twill also bo a fine location for the buildings ( which are to be erected by the various secret societies" . .TIIOOPEIIS "TO SEI.KCT UNIFORMS.

The list of premiums which are to bo of fered to those children entering the special competition to bo held under the direction of the women's board before the exposition opens Is another matter which will engage the attention of the cxccutlvo committee to morrow. In this connection , a number of Rood suggestions regarding the premiums to Jio offered have been received by the com- tmlttco from some of the most prominent educators In the country.

MYERS IS 1'IjACUri ON TRIAL. to a SiMiMnUoiinl nplMoilc of the I.nNt Winter. The trial of David It. Myers for the at tempted murder ot his wife , Nora Myers , was commenced In the criminal court before Judge Ilaker yesterday. On March 1C of this year Myers shot his wife In the head , Inflicting what proved to bo only a scalp wound , and then shot himself In the head. Neither shots proved fatal. The af fair occurred In front ot the house where the couple were rooming , at Seventeenth and California streets , about S o'clock In the evening. Myers and his wife bad had considerable trouble before the shooting occurred. Ac cording to the stories told by both at the time , they were married In Memphis and lived together about six weeks , when the woman left home and came to Omaha , where she was employed In a dressmaking establish. mont In the Karbach block. Myers followed bis wlto to Omaha and made frequent visits to where she was working. She finally yielded to his Importunities and resumed her former relations with him. According to the story told by Myers , ho discovered that his wife was cot true to him. He said he tried to draw her away from her associations , but was unsuccessful. He was especially re vengeful toward ono certain man , who had Induced his wife to leave him at Memphis and had followed her about In this city. At the trial yesterday the first wit ness was Mrs. Nora Myers , the wife of the defendant. She related the story of the shooting , her memory falling her completely when asked regarding her own doings , either before or after. According to her story , she left Myers because of bis cruelty and the trouble culminated when he objected to her visiting some of her female friends. Mrs. Clara White testified that she was passing the house where the shooting oc curred and when she beard the first shot she turned quickly and saw the man fire at the woman a second time. She then started to run and heard two moro shots fired. fired.Witness Witness Shackleford testified that Myers < and his wlfo passed through a ropm where the witness was sitting" Just " before the shooting occurred and Myers remarked to the witness : "I saw her with Rlley again tonight. " Shackleford jiald Jio .heard the shots soon after the couple had gone out of the front door. Witness saw Myers run ning back .Into the house. Ho caught him and took the levolver with which the shoot ing had been done away from him. Witness Karbach testified that he met Myers the day ho made trouble In the rooms where Mrs. Myers was employed , In the Karbach block , and had a long talk with him. Myers threatened his wife and said to Karbach that she should never come Into that building again It be had to swing for It. Karbach said he thereupon complained against Myers in the police court and had him arrested and bound over to keep the peace. The state rested early In the afternoon and the defense called the defendant to the stand. Myers did not testify regarding the actual occurrences Immediately surrounding the shooting , replying to all questions on that point by saying that ho could not remember just what happened. Ho gave his wife a very bad name but when crossexamlned could not state any facts In this connection which bad como under his awn observation. All ho could say on this point was that he bad formed bU opinion on circumstantial evi dence. His recollection seemed perfectly clear upon everything except the actual cir cumstances of the shooting , but upon this point ho would go no further than to say that when ho stepped out of the door after his wife "there was a flash" and that was all ho could say. Other witnesses were called and questioned In a way calculated to bring ! out statements affecting the character of Mrs. .Myers since the shooting , but these were ruled out by the court. It was also attempted to show that Myers was temporarily Insane at the time of the shooting. Several witnesses we're examined with a view ot bringing out this kind of testimony. The case -will bo concluded this morning. Injunction A Arguments In tbo Injunction suit of King- man & Co. against tbo D. & M. wore re sumed In Judge Koysor's court yesterday and continued all day.

Duncan was taken to the station at 1:30 yesterday morning. Shortly before that hour he left his resi dence , 2628 Davenport street.

Dun can's wife was afraid to have him at the house In his mental condition , and ho was therefore removed to the police station. Duncan has been 111 for some years. Dur ing a greater part of the latter time he has been confined to his bed. Laterly he developed alarming symptoms of dementia. John Swestka visited the police station yesterday morning and told the desk officers that his physician was giving him poison Instead ot medicine.

ANOTHRR GARIIAGR ORDINANCK. IlrenkH Into tlie .Monopoly of the Gnr- IIIIKU Contractor. Councilman Stuht'a garbage ordinance , which Is now In the bands of the committee on street Improvements and viaducts , prom ises to bring up a repetition ot the fight which occurred on the same ordinance when It was Introduced by O'Malley just bcforo tbo old council went out ot business. The ordi nance differs from the present ordinance only In the respect that It 'designates what ehall be termed as garbage and the designa tion does not Include manure , ashes and clDders. The- effect of the ordinance would be to largely do away with the monopoly now enjoyed by the garbage contractor , BS under Its provisions any one could haul manure , ashes and cinders without paying toll to the contractor. There Is a difference of opinion as to whether the ordinance would be upheld by the courts , Inasmuch as It practically abrogates a considerable part of the garbage contract. Stunt wants to try It , anyway , but tbo Indications are that ho will be unable to muster enough votes to pass It. If your joints ache with rheumatism or neuralgia , try Pill Aneemlc Pink.

The Board , of Public Works epent an hour yesterday afternoon In examining the new paving specifications which were submitted by City Engineer Rosenatcr. The specifica tions will not be ready In a completed form until Monday , but the general matter to be Included was outlined and discussed. There are no radical changes from the old specifi cations , but the classification of pavements Is somewhat broader In order to meet the different conditions on the various streets. The bidders on paving contracts arc required to supply more complete Information rela tive to the material they pro'poso to use than has previously been required. The contract of J. O. Corby for the Capitol tel avenue sewer was approved. There was an Informal discussion of the complaint of the wheelmen on account of thff numerous holes In the asphalt streets , and as soon as the matter can be reached the contractors will bo required to make the necessary repairs. Comptroller Westberg also suggested the necessity of grading approaches preaches to some ot the crosswalks In the north part of the city which had been left from six Inches to a foot above the grade of the street. In many cases they were so high as to make the street almost impassable for 'vehicles. 'ariils matter will also bo taken up by the board and ilie superintendent of the street department will bo directed to haul enough dirt to make approaches on each side of the most elevated crosswalks. It Is now expected that the South Six teenth street repaying will be begun early next week. The Omaha Street Railway com pany has already purchased Its material and will bo ready to go ahead as soon as the con tractor. The new tracks on that street will bo much heavier and more solid than any now laid In the city. The .present tracks were originally designed for lighter trains than are now used. Sixty-foot rails will also be used , Instead of the thirty-foot rails now on the street , and the bearings will be doubled. The result will be a track that will bear the heaviest traffic without any notice able Jolting and will fully meet the require ments of the municipal authorities. ASICS THAT CI-AHIC III3 SUPPHESSED.

Ish Is the complainant and she secured an order from Judge Scott yesterday afternoon restraining Justice Wilde of Clontarf precinct and Jus tice Brandcs of this city from bringing or hearing suits against her which are brought by Clark , or by any person acting for htm , and restraining Clark from com mencing any more suits against her. According to the petition filed In the case by Mrs. Ish , It appears that the trouble started when Mrs. Ish commenced proceed ings In tbo county court to oust Clark from a room occupied by him In a building on South Fourteenth street which Is owned by Mrs. Ish.

Shortly afterward 'Clark made a claim for $5 which he allege ] was due htm from Mrs. Ish for tbo use of another room In the same buildIng - Ing which she was occupying and for which Clark claimed to hold a lease. Mrs. Ish re fused to pay this bill , claiming that , Clark bad never had a leaie for the rooin and had no claim upon It. Mrs. Ish alleges that 'Clark ' then commenced suit against her for the rent for April before Justice Wilde of Clontarf precinct cwid obtained Judgment. The case was appealed and Is now pending In the district court. It is alleged that a similar suit for the May rent of the room was later brought before Wlldo"and has not yet been tried.
