The commotion In fusion circles over the
contPtt for chief of police continues , and
eeetnn only to have been heightened by the
attack which the World-Herald has been
making , as a mouthpiece for the gang , upon
cx-C hlcf Martin White. In commenting on
the attitude of the fusion organ , Dr. Itobcrt
Ollmore , a prominent locll democratic leader ,
eald yesterday !
"No longer ago than last Wednesday
night H. L Metcalf came out to my buggy
In liont of the Paxton hotel and discussed
( lie canelldicy of Mr. White. Ho said It
van a mistake to pay thlt Hitchcock was
opposed to White. He eald Hitchcock was
doing more for White's election than any-
other Individual In the city. Ho said that
on that day , or the day before , Hitchcock
Led Comml sloncr Gregory In his office for
nn hour und a half laboring with him to
try and Induce him to piomlsc to veto for
Mr. White for chief , and that he ( Metcalf )
then took hold of Mr. Gregory and worked
with him for another hour , with the same
end In view. Mr. Metcalf said that Hitch
cock end Gregory did considerable good-
natured joking with each other over their
changed conditions , s.yliig that Hitchcock
WM originally opposed to White , while Greg
ory xva for him Mr Metcalf aho said
that the reasons why Hitchcock had op-
poied Wlillc * were icmovcd , and that now
the papet could consistently support him. "
OLD OI'VICEIl3 SMILK. f '
Around police headquarters the older offi-
rern are wearing smiles of amusement over
thn World-HeNld's attack on White's com
petency. They call attention to the fact
that the list of an evqn dozen burglaries
pi luted In the Woi Id-Herald , said to have
been committed during White's Incumbency
ns chief of police , makes no reference to
the value of tlio goods ttolen The total
value of stolen property recorded vvltn the
reports of thr e twelve burglailea fooM up
ollngether about $300 , and only one of them
amounts to over $100 The police olllters
cay that the tumnicr months usually bring
In reports of petty thefts because of the-
caielc.'Hiess of people who leave their doois
and windows open. Inviting thievery. The
records of the police station thow that for
the month previous to the assumption ot
finite by Chief White. In 1893 , there were
more burglaries reported and the value of
goods stolen aRgicgatcd nearly twice $300.
Martin White was found yesterday und
asked what he had to say In respect to the
attack made upon him In the World-Herald
"I elo not want to enter Into any news-
Tiapcr controversy , " said .Mr. White. My
candidacy for chief of police rests upon the
dec'aion of the Hoard of Tire and Police
Commissioner and not that of the nevvb-
"What have > you to say to the charge that
jou have had no more experience as a police
officer than a box car detective ? "
"I am willing to stand solely upon my
record an a police officer. The letters which
The lice printed Indicate whit that Is I
never pretended to have been In charge of
the Chlcage > police force. I worked fifteen
years for the Milwaukee road , and before
that I was a uniformed policeman at the
Union paeaengcr station on Canal street In
Chicago , where I was employed by the Penn
sylvania railroad. All tlio time I was work
ing for the Milwaukee railroad I was sworn
as a special policeman at Chicago , worp a
Chicago policeman's Star , and worked with
almost all thfe principal olficerb of the Chicago
cage police force. "
"Tho World-Herald also attacks your
record as chief of police In Omaha. Have
you anything to eay to that' "
"My record as chief In Omaha speaks for
Itself , and I am satisfied to let the fair-
minded public render a verdict. "
' * Dld you have anything to do with work
ing up the case of the Pacific Express com
pany robbery ? "
DECLINE HIS ASSISTANCE.
"I tendered my services to the Express
company's detective , who was sent on here
to Investigate that robbery , as Is urjual In
such cases , but the offer was declined with
the statement that the express company'b
detectives would call on the police depart
ment for aid If they thought It desirable ,
and I was requested to leave the matter en
tirely In their bauds. I never worked on
that case at all except to det.vll a man to
ehidovv the residence of ono of the suspected
parties , and to detail officers to assist In
making a search of the homo of one of the
8U pectcd employes Other than that I took
no active part because It is customary to ,
entrust investigation of express company
robbcilcts to the company's detectives where
they arc present and working on the case. '
"Tho World-Herald tries to hold you re
sponsible for the failure of the jury to con
vict dog-catchers Spoerl and Trank "
"Tlio Frank case I believe to be the first
on iccord where the city police department
c&ugbt anv city official or emplovo In the
act of robbing they taxpayers. The case
was carefully worked up. I was not sub
poenaed as a witness In the case and the
trial did not come off until after my dis
missal from office. County Attorney Dalcl-
rlgo found It almost Impossible to get money
to pay Detective MoGulie's expenses from
Chicago to Omaha and rctuin that ho might
bo used as a witness 1 am at a loss to
know vby bo met with that difficulty , but
feucb was thu case , and a portion of the
money was advanced by Business men who
oftcrwaul had great dlfilcully In collecting
It from the county. As to Hell , ho wax
not a detective , and wau not employed In
the * case. Officer Vanous , who has just been
restored to the force , was employed on that
case , "
"What was your connection with the-
Bcljuu murder cane ? "
SLEUTH HAS A THEORY
"The Scljan murder occurred the first
Tuesday after 1 assumed charge of the
police department , The case was a very
difficult ono because none of the parties
could speak Englloh , am ) all Interviews
\vcie > held tlnoiigh Interpreters , In the facei
of all these difficulties evidence enough was
Bccuml , li | my judgment , to have convicted ,
had It been properly prc-tented to the county
attorney by tln > pollee department. The
trial took placet after my dlschaige. I was
never subpoenaed as a witness , or requested
to appear at the final tilal. Had I been 1
could have assisted tbe cuunty attorney veiy
Ereatly In shaping up the evidence for the
jury. I understand 1 was not subpoenaed
because ! the police department Informed the
county attorney that I was not an Important
\vltnefcs and would not be needed , I never
forbade Haze working on any ease and
never made any assertions as to what I
could or could not do. The theory advanced
ty the paper now attacking mo was that of
suicide , their man Hemming claiming that
Seljan cut his throat at Thirteenth and
J'lerce streets , severing the jugular vein ,
talked to the river , took off his coat and
vest , laid them up on the bank and jumped
into the river , not dropping any blood fiom
the polut where be cut his throat and the
point where ho made the final Jump , The
pool mortem examination moved that Scljan
was dead before he reached the river , by
tbo presence of air In the lungs when the
examination wan made. The alleged blood
spots on tbe sidewalk were found by He-
porter Hemming , who need them In support
of his theory that tbe man walked to the
river after cutting bli own throat. The
only reason the alleged blood spots on the
sidewalk were examined was to explode tbe
Improbable theory of Hemming.
"As to the burglaries committed while I
vvau chief , they were very few and most of
them of minor Importance. There were no
hold-ups and no eafcb blown. As to the
record of unpunished crime committed dur
ing my "term of ofllco as chief of police of
Omaha , I will eluiply say that It will com
pare favorably with any similar period
cither before or after my Incumbency. "

quest tuition In Crelghton college has Always
been free. Students provide their own text
books , there Is a charge of $10 a year to
students of the natural sciences for appar
atus and material used , and a fee of MO Id
Imposed at graduation. Although the school
U conducted under Roman Catholic auspices ,
ptotcstant pupils are not obliged to partake
of the special religious Instruction of that
church ,
Crelghton college consists of two depart
ments , tlio collegiate and the academic or
preparatory About 200students were enrolled
In both departments during the lost school
year. The university Is empowered by net
of legislature "to confer such academic de
grees and honors as arc conferred by colleges -
leges nnd universities of the United States"
An elaborate system of prizes and rewards
Is In vogue , which should , and doubtless
docs , result In stimulating the best efforts
of pupils
The John A. Crelghton medical college ,
now a part of tbe university , will open Its
fall term In the now building , and will be
thoroughly well equipped with all that goes
to make up a successful school of medicine
Its faculty Is nn admirably able one , and the
cla'oes next year promise to be unusually
large.
An examination of til's catalogue will be
found Interesting and Instructive as showIng -

ono of tbe Iretltutlons of which Omaha has
most reason to be proud.

The retail price of beef has advanced from
2 to C cents per pound within the last couple
of weeks. "Dealers .ire charging 17 cents
per pound for tenderloin steak , 23 cents a
pound for beef tenderloin , 15 cents for sir
loin , 121,4 cents for round steak and S cents
for shoulder. This Is an advance of 5 cents
per pound on tenderloin steak , C cents a
pound nn beef tenderloin , 4 % cents a pound
for sirloin and the same for round steak.
Pork has gone up a cent and a half a pound ,
mutton 3 cents a pound and veal 4 cents.
The packers give as a reason for this the
Increased demand and the scarcity of live
stocK.
Olllclal figures of receipts at the stork
yards do not verify the statement of scarcity ,
as fet the six months of this year the In-
ciento In cattle lias been 126,519 bead , 220-

There la at least onp respect In which the
TransmlAsIpslppI and International Exposi
tion will tllfTer from all former expositions
held In the United States. This Is In the
free u c of color on the exterior of thp build
ings. In no exposition held In this country
1ms there been any well-defined scheme for
the use of color to heighten the architectural
effect of the buildings , and at the World's
fair and lesser expositions which have fol
lowed In Its wake the nro Of the composl
tlon called " -staff" - has resulted In a dead ,
dazrllng white color , which Ins given a
stiff , drcaiy appearance to the erxpo-ltlMi
grounds , detracting greatly from the archi
tectural appearance end producing a monoto
nous effect upon the vlHtor.
At the gnat European expositions , and
especially thoto held In the gay French
capital , the use of color la one of the strong
features , nnd the whole exposition Is ghcn
a color tone which , of Itself , conveys at once
to the mind the Itnpretalon that the exposi
tion Is n great fete where enjoyment \ the
ruling motive.
The archltects-ln-chlof of tlie Transmits-
i-lppl Exposition Imo decided to break away
from the precedent established In thh coun
try by the Columbian exposition and Inject
an element of gaiety and life Into the archi
tecture of the great fair which will make
It rank among the foremost expositions of
the world In point of architectural beauty.
With this end In view , the great buildIngs -
Ings of the main court have been designed
along the broad and liberal lines of the
Trench renaissance , modifying the ecverc
lilies of the . 'trlctly classical orders of archi
tecture and allowing of elaborate decora
tion without marring the harmony of the en
semble.
DESIGNED POIl USD OP COLOR.
According to the general scheme of color
decoiatlon os outlined by Mr. Walker , one
of the archltects-ln-chlef , the Interior of the
domes of the main buildings , the walla of
the grand porticos and arcades back of the
massive columns which flnt strike the eye ,
the ceilings of these porticos and atcaden ,
the friezes of the buildings , the spaces under
the arches leading into the buildings , the
space about the window. ? In some of the
buildings , all of these hive been designed
by the architects of the buildings with a
view of using color for their decoration.
Where eo many buildings vveie to bo
grouped together It was neccasary to have
a background of color which could bo used
on all of them. Tor this background It was
decided to use an "old Ivory" tint , a shade
somewhat darker than cream color. In de
ciding upon this tint as a background the
architects were guided by the fact thnt the
detail of sculpture and decorated coinlces
ornamented with low relief work , can enl >
be discerned by the use of a light color. Any
attempt to color the buildings to Imitate any
of the darker shades of marble or stone would
result In giving the sculpture a flat appear
ance. With this light shade the sculptured
ornament will cast decided shadows and give
a brilliant effect , which a darker tone would
not permit. Moreover , this undertone will
give a great brilliancy to any color which
may bo used on It.
SYMBOLICAL ORNAMENTATION.
The figure decorations of the grounds will
be focused In certain spots , such as the In-
Mde of the domes of the Manufactures and
Machinery buildings , the spaces Under the
arches of the Mines building , and especially
about the Auditorium. The sculptured orna
mentation and the colors used upon each
building will symbolize the uses to which the
building will be put. On the Machinery
building , for Instance , the ornamentation will
bo In the shape of chains , bolts , nuts , screws ,
circular saws , etc. , on a rich background of
color , which will leave the Impression , as
Dwlght H. Perkins , architect of the building.
expressed It , of a bright eastern rug. On the
'Agriculture ' building < he ornamentation will
bo vegetables and grasses , and the colors
used will be those of the corn flower , the
rich red of the poppy , the green of foliage ,
the golden yellow of corn , etc. The Mines
building will bo gay with the colors of min
erals , the pigments formed by the various
sails of metals forming the basis of the
colors This building will be one of the most
beautiful In color decoration on the grounds
The Administration building will bo elabo
rately decorated with colors , the high-hipped
Trench roof and the beautifully moulded aich
beneath which the public will pass affording
most desirable opportunities for the use of
color.
COLOR. FOR COLONNADES.
The covered colonnades which will connect
the several main buildings , forming , with
the buildings , a covered passageway entirely
around the main court , wllj be much simpler
and more severe In type of architecture than
the buildings In order to ac. as a foil and
not detract from the beauty of the buildings
The order of architecture of these colon nadcs
will be Pompcllan dorlc. The lower third of
the columns -will be plain and the upper
two-thirds will be fluted. The plain portions
of the column will be colored , after the
fashion of those found In Pompellan bouses.
The colors to bo used on them will har-
monlzo with the scheme of the buildings.
The columns of the colonnade extending
from the Agriculture to the Administration
building and from the Administration to
the Mines building , forming the central sec
tion of the north eldo of the lagoon , will
be colored a rich Pompellan red ; those extending -
tending around the "mirror" end of the
lagoon to the government building will prob
ably bo colored a quiet terra cotta. The
colonnades at the eastern end of the main
court , extending between the Art and Manu
factures buildings on the south side of the
lagoon , and betwc en the Mines and Ma
chinery buildings on the north side , will bo
somewhat different from the others. In
stead of having a celling or roof , thcso
colonnades will bo covered with growing
vines , after the Italian method , the columns
being plain for their entire height and colored
"old Ivory" like the main buildings. The
columns at the extreme eastern end of the
lagoon , forming the approach to the viaduct
across Sherman avenue , will bo colored a
deep Indian yellow , producing a most strik
ing effect.
The bridges across the lagoon at the east
and west ends will bo ornamented with staff
and will bo In harmony with the buildings
The bridges across thu lagoon at the center ,
or Twentieth street , will be permanent In
their nature and will be made of wrought
Iron.

SHOUTING OF THIS AVHM. III.A\ ) ,
Wire * ContirottitK the llnMcry Arc
There was no subterranean disturbance at
the exposition grounds yesterday , and the
hundred or so curious and perspiring people
who sweltered undcfJthe hot morning sun
for four burning hours In the expectation of
finding out what affect the explosion of fifty
pounds of dynamite -had 1,000 feet down In
the earth * ere rownrMed by seeing General
Superintendent Gei-aldlne press the button
of the electric battery. That was na far as
the program was ( carried out. The electric
current stubbornly refused to bo propelled
down to the bottom of the artesian well and
the weary crowd scattered off after Its Sun
day dinner , with a distinct Impression that
the morning bad been wasted ,
For some da > past the exposition man
agement has been waiting for the arrival of
the dynamite to shoot the well In the ex-
psctatlon that the flow would be Increased
to a suDlclent extent to make It answer for
the nencral purprscs of the exposition. The
cxplcslvc arrived Saturday and early yestcr
day forenoon the contractors began to make
preparations to shoot the lower of the tbrct
water-bearing strata , which Is 1,070 feet be
low the surface. Some delay was occastone <
by the fact that a portion of the well hai
been clogged by a cave-In of a stratum o
clay and It was nearly 11 o'clock when th
well was cleared out and ready to recelv
the shot.
Mr. Geraldlno attended to that part of the
process himself. The dynamite was sccurclj
packed In a long tube of galvanized Iron
about eight feet long and three Inches It
diameter. The tube was weighted and low
ercd by a small rope and windlass carrying
with It two Insulated wires , which were to
convey the electric spark from the battery
to the fulminating cap which was to dls
charge the shot. Unfortunately It had bcei
found Impossible to secure wires which wen
long enough for the purpose and It was nects
sary to splice them at frequent Intervals
This was accomplished by winding the spllcec
portion with a common cotton cloth , and a
bystander , who had worked In the Pennsyl
vanla oil region , was bold gnough to ndvhi
that It would bo Impossible to discharge tin
shot through such a medium. Ho offered ti
go over to his house a short distance away
and get some Insulating tope , but his sug
gc .tlons were received In frosty silence am
hn retreated In good order.
Meantime the tube was being slowlv low
ercd , with frequent stops to splice the wlri
and "Insulate" the connections with cotton
bandages. It was nearly 2 o'clock when tin
Job was successfully accomplished , and tin
free ends of the wire1) ) connected with the bit
tery. Then everyone retreated to a safe dls
tanco and Mr. Geraldlne turned on the cur
rent. There w.is no response. Ho tried 1
again , and announced that the vvator hat
penetrated the Insulation and all bets wcr
offTho
The oil man removed his corncob pip
long enough to sa > , " 'Tolc yer so , " and th
crowd went home. The charge was drawn
up again nnd another effort to shoot th
well will be made as soon as better wires or
secured.

At the first glance , If the body of th _
birds could be eliminated , the
would say that he was looking Into the faces
of a couple of monkeys They have big
black eyes , an apparent nose and seemlnglj
a big mouth. It Is only after looking more
closely that It Is dlscoveied that the nose
is a long feathered beak ending In hcokee
hills , nnd that the /mouth IB a filnge o
dark feathers running about the face. The
monkey llkenea ? Is helghtenede-by" the1 fac
that the birds Jn looking at one turn am
protrude their head Ju&t like qliadrumana.
A closer examination seems to Indicate
that the birds aio owls of s&ne kind , bin
not residents of this vicinity. The peculiar
faces are coveied with flosh-eoloted feath
ers , which are of a more pinkish hue In
the male , for the pair cons-lsts of a male
and a female. The feathers come up aboul
a beak , forming a pronounced aquiline nose
The eye.3 are big and black and are set be
neath a fair forehead. The face , which Is
about three Inches In diameter. Is * et off
with a fringe of dark feathers , which from
a distance looks likea mouth of wide di
mensions , or like the e rt of whiskers best
known as "Donegal slugger. ' . "
The back and wings of tne birds are cov
ered with feathers of a buff hue , which are
heavily and beautifully marked with a stee
color. These markings , which cover al
most the entire back to the top of the head
are delicate lines nnd curves , as fine a < ,
these pecn on banknotes , and seem to bo
raised above their buff ground. The wing1 ?
are also buif In color and marked with
the same steel color. The under part of the
wings and the breast of the male arc
lighter In hue , while the same party of the
female are almost white. All the feathers
aio of great fineness , arc smooth and soft
as down , and are very thick and abundant.
The pilr Is about eight weeks old and
measure about a foot In length. Their tail
are not jet grown. Their wings are power
ful and up em to be m-delcd on the pinions
of Inn syigle. They already have a stretch
of two feet or more. The birds are pos
sessed of great claws. The body is short In
proportion to the wings and heads.
The birds can walk In a very dignified
manner along the bottom , of their big cage.
They climb and use their beak to a.o'st them ,
but do not swing from It like a parrot.
They sea well In the daj time , but go to
sleep usually during the day and remain
awake at night. The only sounds they have
uttered are hlfees nnd a noise created by
striking their bills together. When alarmed
or angry they drop their wings and head
something like an enraged game rooster.
They eat law meat and mice , twallowlng the
food whole.
The birds were captured near Springfield
A faimer in that vicinity noticed a strange
pair of birds , with a stretch of wing of
fully six feet last February In his orchard.
Ho tried without avail to capture or rhoot
them. They finally built a neat in one of
the trees of the orchard. Tour joung oneo
were hatched , two of which are those which
Peterson now has.
Peterson Is awaiting with consldeiablo
Interest the time when they become full
grown and will bear their developed shape.

Charles D. Thompson of this city hns re
turned after an extended tour through the
northwestern part of Nebraska , and In speakIng -
Ing of the crop outlook for the present
season , ho PIJS :
"Tho wheat crop , which Is now being
harvested In the Elkhorn valley , between
Norfolk and Omaha , Is ono of the best that
has ever been raised In tills region. The
shocks are as thick as they ever were In any
of the far-famed wheat talelng section ? , and
the berry la as plump nnd as pet feet as
Minnesota over produced. The oat crop Is
not quite so good ; yet It Is a fair crop , and
the corn crop Is simply magnificent.
"Sugar beets of the finest growth spread
In fields and patches all the way dawn to
Fremont. A great many are raised about
West Point , Wlsner , Sirlbner , Hooper , and ,
of course , a very largo acreage In the
vicinity of Stanton and Norfolk. The bay
crop In this region Is simply Immense.
"A few fields of alfalfa vary the appear
ance of thu landscape , but what attracted
us much attention as the abundant crop
of grain , hay , etc. , was the fruit crop. All
the wjy up from Omaha are found a num
ber of fine orchards of young applu trees.
I have bad an opportunity of seeing orchards
In several states recently , but I have not
seen apple trees so full of fruit , and per
fect dull , as thobo I found In the Elkhoru
valley. ,
The crop of apples will , from appear
ances , be abundantly able to supply the local
demand. There are not simply a few apples
on a tree , but each Individual tree Is ab
solutely loaded. In a tew InMances beirlcti
wore very luxuriant , and It would seem that
tbo cultivation of berries and small fruit
of all kinds would yield quite a handsome re-
tinn all along thu Elkhorn valley ns far
west as Norfolk and perhaps farther.
"All of the towns prcoent a thrifty ap
pearance and In all of them new bousis. are
being built. A veiy pleasing feature was
the fact that farmers are paying more at
tention to their buildings. Nearly all of
thcli stiuctures are nicely painted , and as
good as the average Iowa farmer can sup
port. Their farms are fenced and weeds
and bramble patches are the exception and
not tbe rule.
PLENTY OP LATE \STURE. .
"All of the streams are full of nice , clear
water. Cattle arc beginning to appear lu
large numbers on tbe ranches and smallci
farms of this valley , and nil of thoni arc In
good condition. The pasture fields are as
gieen as they usually are In June , and the
prospect for late fall fcculug In this direc
tion Is very flattering. Fences , buildings ,
etc. , nro kept up in good shape , and I am
told by business men In these towns thu
the farmers are confidently looking forward
to a season of prosperity.
"One business man told me that for the
last two or three years It was the exception
to hear the farmers laughing nnd looking
pleasant on the strtct coinera as they came
into town , but , said he , the farmers aie tbe
most jubilant people that we have now
You hear their merry laughter ring out over
the streets at all hours. More of them
come to town than usual , and they aie plan
ning for Improvements ol all kinds , not only
on their farms , but In their houses , and
the farmers' wives and children reflect the
prosperity that Is not only theirs now , but
there is moie In prospccl.
"All along the line they are enthusiastic
In legird to the exposition. They hope to
secure from the railroads , and It Is believed
that they will get It without any trouble ,
low rate excursions , which will last for a
day or two each week , always Including
Sunday , and there will be a great roar of
discontent from this region If the ministers
oC Omaha eucceed In closing the gates of
the exposition on Sunday. Since territorial
days the Nebraska foinicr has been In the
habit of going somewhere on Sunday. It
seems to bo bred In the bone of the Ne
braska tiller of the soil to look upon Sunday-
OS a day of visiting , and church going , pci-
hapa , ibut always a day of recreation. He
means no bairn by this. In fact , It Is the
only day In which he bus surcease from
continual toll. The old-fashioned plan of
hitching up the farm wagons , with boards
across the boxes , and driving off to some
neighbor's or to some school house foi1
church is still In vogue in this state , and
If the management of tlie exposition at
Omaha next year experts the farmeio ot
Nebraska to attend their show , they must
BCD to It that not only the exposition
grounds , but the buildings also , will be or _
every Sunday during tbe existence of tm.
exposition. "
IIULI'ING A ItnKOKMATOUY SCHOOL.
Catholic : Women bock to ENtiihllxh n
rrriiiiiiii-ut I''nil < l.
Feminine representatives fiorn all the
Catholic parishes in this city and South
Omaha met at Crelghton hall yesterday
'
afternoon to devlon ways nnd means to support -
port tbo Home of the Good Shepherd , the
Catholic reformatory for gills In South
Omaha. The meeting was attended by some
fifty women.
The object of the gathering was explained
by Father Rlgge , who acted as chairman.
The home Is running along without any reg
ular source of Income , although It Is In good
condition at the piesent time , i It Is feared ,
however , that some emergency may urlso
by which the homo will nnd Itself cut off
fiom any revenue. The women were called
together to dovlirc some plan by which this
posf'lblllty may be averted.
The plan that ma favor was to form some
association or league , the members of which
Hhull pledge themselves to pay to the sup
port of the home sums tanging from 5 cents
upward every month. Jt Is believed that
In this manner a substantial oource of In
come can be created that will bo sufficient
to put the Institution beyond tbe possibility
of want in a money way. As a starter of
this plan all the vvonun present pledged
themselves to pay ceijaln sums. It Is pro
posed , alee , to solicit wont of various kinds
that can be douo by the Inmates of the
home.
It was deemed best not to lay tbo plans
of the proposed society at once One reason :
for this was that the attendance was not
as largo as was deslied. Therefoio the
matter of organising and electing officers
was postponed to another meeting , which
will bo held in Cieightou ball on next Bun-
day afternoon at 4 o'clock.

The membeis of the city council met Sit-
urday evening to look over the ground unl
des-Icnatc certain ftieete for the building of
a motor line loop The council proposes to
dispense with tbe switching of cars at Twcti-
ty-fourth and N sticets , and with tills Idea
In view tbe stieets south of N were Inspectcc
with a view of deciding upon the line ot th
loop which the company will be compelle
to build. The majority favored contlnuin
the double tracks south on Twenty-fourth t
Q street , thence west to Twenty-sixth street
north on Twenty-sixth street to N and cas
en N to Twenty -fourth s > trcct. By doing till
there would be no blockade of cars at th
principal Junction lu the city and accident
would be less liable to happen.
Another meeting of the councllmen will b
held this afternoon to call upon the official
of the different packing houses lu couuectlo
with these contemplated changes. It h pro
posed to urge the co-operation of the pjckln ;
companies In an effort to have tbo doubl
tracks extended out Q street to Thirtieth
north on Thirtieth to L street , and east o
L to Twenty-fourth street , thus making
big loop and ccic that will taKc In all o
the packing houses In case the packers vvl !
join the council In tlilb matter the propose
Twenty-sixth street loop will be abandone
and all hands will work for the big loop
The councllmen say that a loop around Thlr
tUth street would accommodate hundreds o
men who arc now compelled to walk frnn
