A few over 100 citizens attended the masg
meeting at the city hall last night to con
sider Increased high school facilities. While
noneof the resolutions offered were carried
the senseof the meeting was plainly In
favor of $150,000 for high school bonds , to
be used for one new high school.
Secretary Glllan of tln > Board of Education
presented the results of the circular ballot
taken through the school children from their
parents. This nlso showed a majority In
favor of ono new high school , as follows :
Taxpayers , tor ono high school , 1,615 ; for
three high schools , 1,109 ; non-taxpayers , for
one high school , 59C ; for three high schools
191 , Knights of Ak-Sir-Ben , for one- high
school , 21li ; for three high schools , 19 , total
for ono high school , 2,427 , for three high
schools , 1.C49.

and George Helmrod.
Chnlrman Penfold of the special commit
tee of the board called the meeting to order.
Secretary Gillan of the school bo.ird was
nstted to open the discussion on the side nl
the party favoring one high school. He
stated \ery concisely the argument ! . In favor
of this Idea. Ho made the points that the
city owned a splendid block of ground for n
now high school , that the division of many
of the advanced classes Into three parts
would bo to pro\ldo an Instructor for only a
few pupils and Increase the cost per pupil ;
that It would be difficult to secure three
military Instructors nnd organize three mili
tary companies , that the attendance at the
one High school Is now aa numerous from
outlying districts ns from the central portion
tion o ( tbo city ; that with extended street
car lines , and the great use of bicycles
among the pupils , the pupils can reach the
ono High school eislly and with 1hc benefit
of outdoor exercise In going to and from the
one school centrally located.
1'ciimo'ii Iilfii.
Superintendent Pcarse was urged to speak
for the side favoring three High schools ,
He said that the teaching force would not
have to be materially enlarged for thrco
cchools. as several teachers now had to be
assigned to the rending courses and these
could bo divided among the three schools ,
while sueelallsts could bo emplojod to go
( mm tchool to echool for Instruction In spe
cial branches. He said the cost of build-

Ing two new High schools of fair slzo and
Improving the present one would not bo in
excess of thu cost of tearing down the pres
ent building and erecting ono new largo
Rtructure.
Joseph Redman a.sked what other cities
had moro than one High school. Superin
tendent Pearse replied : "Denver has four ;
Kansas Cltv. flvo ; St. Paul , four ; Minneapo
lis , four ; Columbus , 0. , two ; Indianapolis ,
two ; Cleveland , three , with two raoro pro-
Dosed , and Boston , eleven. "
Princlnal Lcvleton of the High school was
called for and In reply made a strong ap-
Deal for a new home for the High scool. i
Ho said that as the business men , the real
esln'o owners and the citizens generally
had expressed their preference In ratio of
from 2 to 1 to < to 1 In favor of ono H'gh
school ho thought It unwise , to go against
their wishes and talk of building three
High school * . He enld It would take about
four moro teachers to run three High
schools than to conduct one. Superintendent
Smith of the St. Paul schools had toM him
that the three-school system in that city
bad not nrovcd a success. He said thnt
there had never been three high schools In
ono cltv conducted on an altogether equal
sralo.
Charles 9. Etguttcr replied to a statement
nf Dr. Moore , who had said that ho thought
the effect of climbing the steps at the pres
ent Hlcli school was detrimental upon thu
L-Irl students. Ho said that facts were bet
tor than theories nnd remarked that ha had
not heard of any ono who had suttered any
Injury from this cause slnco the present
building was constructed. Mr. Elgutter cx-
nresBcd the hope that the pietent bulMIng
would bo allowed to stand and that In the
futuie. as the needs of the High scboot
should Increase , there would be erected
two. four , six or eight buildings about the
present High school campus , giving the sci
entific , the classical , the Industrial , the
English nnd the physical branches each one
building nnd In lime cieating there a splen
did cltv college.
* . THl Sort * of Iileni.
L. D. Holmes spoke In favor of ono High
school , basing his argument on the ground
of economy. He very heartily endorsed the
plan suggested by Mr. Elgutter for grad
ually building a set of commodious struc
tures on the present campus , the schools to
constitute one complete college for the city
schools.
R. C. Patterson made n plea for thro"
High schools. He said ho did not consider
expense in Vho matter of education and he
sharply nttncked Prlnclpnl Lcvlston for
paying nttcntlon to the finnnclnl side of the
question. He preferred the plan suggested
b > Mi. Elgutter to the thuMD-school system ,
but said that If the scheme for n city col
lege could not be cnrrled out be wanted
thteo high schools. i
The following resolution wa Introduced
by J. G. Kuhn : I i
i "Resolved. That If Is the sense of this
mass meeting that the present High school
on Capitol hill bo not destroyed or altered ,
but that new buildings as needed be built ,
separate and distinct from the High school
building on the High school campus. "
Jonathan Edwards said ho favored re-
I palis to the present structure and added his
voice to thu support of the one-school Idea.
R. W. Rlcbaidsou mated to amend by
providing for strengthening and altering the
present High school building.
I
In reply to a question Chairman Penfold
mid the Board of Education had no plans
for a now high school , but most of all
wanted to create a sentiment In favor of
$100,000 bonds for additional high school
facilities.
Samuel Uces moved a substitute calling
for the Issue of bonds to the amount of
J150.000 for additional high school facilities
on the plescn' ' grounds. This wua defeated , i
2t > to 19 , The amendments to the original
motion were defeated and the latter Itself
was lost 22 co 21. The meeting then ad
journed. <

JSHINING FOR CHARITY'S SAKE
1 IxttliiK Xumcn * AHHix-lnllon niul 31rfc.
Mii'vucll AVorlc t'l n' Novel
I'lnu for Oiiinlin.
"Society shine" Is what It Is called and as
It will bo a novel experience In Omaha it will
probably attract considerable Interest. The
women will shine the shoes of the men nnd
do l > In the cnuse of charity. Mrs. Maxwell - i
well , who has managed similar ventures | |
successfully In other western nnd southern
cities , will superintend the work. The
women , mind > ou , do not actually shine
the shoes , but they sit by in their pretty
gowns to see that everything Is propetly
conducted. The shining will take place In
The Bee building and the New York Llfo
building on Friday , November 4 , and In the
Mlllnrd hotel nnd in the Stock Yards ex
change on Saturday , November 5. The
houra will be from 8 o'clock In the morning
until 8 o'clock In the evening and the price
per shine will be 10 cents. The proceeds
of the two days' work will bo given to the
Visiting Nurses' association.
Mrs. Maxwell began this work a few-
years ago and her Initial effort wns to raise
J5CO with which to pay the' rent for ths
Street Boys' homo at St. Louis. She has
raised $3,400 selling flowers and shining
shoes slnco she began and the money has
bcrti used for charitable purposes. During
the last four weeks In Omaha she has made
? 375 selling Bowers , which has been di
vided among the Child's Saving Instlfute ,
Uescue homo nnd the Visiting Nurses' asso
ciation.
The principle of the "society shine" Is to
hccuro the small contributions which would
not be given otherwise , owing to the. Insignificance -
significance of the sum. It IE urged that
men will gl\e 10 cents for a shlno when
charity Is the motive who would give noth
ing direct , because they felt they could net
afford to ghe a considerable sum.
. Boys will bo secured to do the work on
I the tno days selected and they will be well
paid for It. So far as possible those will
be secured who are uuemplojed , that the
charlt } may work both ways.
Many Omaha women will act on pa-
tionesacs of the "society shine" and among
them will be ; Mrs. Dr. Towno , Mrn , Her
bert noBeru , Mrs. A. II. Nojci , Mr8. jra.
meiBon , Mrs. Chailes Damon , Mrs. I. R. |
Andrews , Mrs. James McShanc , Mrs. Adams , ,
Mr . W R. Bennett , Mrs. Leo Franklin ,
Miss Chandler , Miss Nellie Bennett and
others.
COMING TO ITS CLOSE
( Continued trora First Page )
So far there is no definite Indication thnt the !
scheme will materialize and It Is regarded as I
visionary by most of the exposition officials.
The diaicultles In the way of securing an ad- I
dltlonul lease of the ground that Is covered
by the exposition enclosure art- alone almost
auirieient to defeat the scheme. Down town
busintsj men win hva p ofl cj tremendously
from the Immense crowds of visitors that
has been brought to the city during the Hum
mer mo said to regard the proposition kindly
but whether they will give any adequate
financial support to the undertaking Is
doubled. In any case the people who still
wish to see the exposition had better come
now for there Is not one chance In a million
that they will have another chance. I

The llvo stock barns and pens were the !
scones of great activity yesterday. The [
show is over and the exhibitors were all
busy getting their stock out and starting
It for home. During the day seventy-five
cars of the animals were sent out and the
balance will go today and tonight , so that
by Sunday morning it Is doubtful If theru
will Le one of the show animals upon the
grounds. '
Yesterday the exhibitors were annoyed and
delayed to quite an extent by the red tape j
that they found wrapped around their
movements. The day before they had been j
able to take 'their nnlmais to the cars on
the orders of Superintendent Elmcmlorf of
the Live Stock Exhibit department , but ycs-
tcrday , when they reached the outer gates , i
they wore held up and Informed that thoiu
| ' wus soiuetllng else tl.at was nccad ary Le ere I
removing the animals from the ground-i.
[ They were told that they would have to
take Superintendent Elmemiorf's order to
H. B. Hardt , assistant superintendent of
exhibits , and then ho would Issue u permit ,
which would have to be taken to Superin
tendent Babcock of the Transportation de
partment , who would Issue a request upon
Andy McQuoid , clcrl ; of the Ways and
Moans department , who would send the or g-
Inal order back to Superintendent Klmemlort
for his O , K. This was nil done , but In
each Instance It delayed the shipment out
from three to five hours.
Another AilinlnNloiiM Illuniler.
The judges who are working on the ex
hibits that are shown fey prizes have a
grlo\ance. They were given passes to the
j grounds , limited to October 20. When that
ilnto rolled around they had not completed
their labors and yesterday they were com
