The start nf what the Library board and
the local artists hope to make a permanent
collection of paintings has been made. At
the meeting of the executive committee nf
the Trnnsmlsslsslppl exposition Trlday
night the paintings which wire purchiaed
by the exposition from the many exhibited
hero last summer were given to the llbraty
on the condition that a suitable room be
provided for their reception and that thU
room ho kept open to the public.
Lewis Heed of the Library board states
that ho has had as jet no official notification
of the offer , but that the board will fulfill
the condition specified.
J. Laurie Wallace , who was of the com
mittee selecting the pictures for the ex
position people , ald : "I am much gratified
that the exposition people have given the
palntlnga to the library and thot the Li
brary board will accept them upon the con
ditions named. Omaha has been entirely
without a public collection of paintings. The
people will now have a start In this direc
tion. I was of the committee that selected
the paintings and can state that wo were
culdod In our selection by quality , not quan
tity. At the time the selection was made
the local artists thought that Just such an
outcome of the affair might be expected and
vvo selected the best paintings on exhibition.
'Tho Departure of the fishermen * Is the
work of Louis Paul Dessar , an artist of the
French school and a pupil of Dougercau ,
Klucry and the Kcole des Beaux Arts of
Paris. The color and tone arc well carried
out , Iho grouping of the figures Is good and
the Htory Is well told. In the selection of
the picture wo wore guided by many things
that the public would not appreciate. It
will bo readily understood that what appeals
moat to the artist In pictures of this charac
ter may never bo noticed by people gener-
nlly. The picture Is well worthy of a place
In any gallery and the library Is Indeed for
tunate In securing It , "
An Artlntlc Gem.
"Tho second painting , " continued Mr.
Wallace."Is 'Abandoned on the New Eng
land Coast. ' It Is by Charles II. Davis , an
American palntor and a pupil of Boulangcr
and Lefovre. It will not appeal strongly to
most iHirsons , because of Its lack of human
Interest. The study of a landscape Is nec
essarily a barren one. nut to the artist It
tons an Indescribable charm. In Mr. Davis'
painting the technique and rendering of
light IB especially well done.
"Kobert Hold's 'Opal' will , I fear , create
considerable dissatisfaction. Some classes
of people will always object to a study In
the nude , but true lovers of art , those who
love art for Its own sake , will never bo
Influenced by those classes. The objection
I refer to Is a certain appeal ance of lack of
details that gives the painting an unfinished
look. Yet It Is just this that appeals most
strongly to the artist. The purity and
transparency of the lighting effects which
glvo the picture the opalescent appearance
from which It gains Its name are magnifi
cent and the truth of the coloring la ro-
niarkablc.
" 'Tho Cow Herd , ' by E. Anger Couse ,
\\hllo H can by no means be classed with
the other paintings , Is a work of no little ex
cellence.
" 'Moonshine nml Mist , ' by I. E. Whllo-
man , Is another painting which wll not , I
think , greatly attract the general public.
This la because of the fact that most per
sons lack a true knowledge of nature. Men
and women look at nature every day with
out seeing It. In this , of course , I refer to
the world at large. Their criticisms are
based upon whatever other paintings they
way have soon. They cannot , therefore , ap
preciate the dcllcateness of the coloring ,
"Thcro la a beauty about 'Moonshine and
Mlsf that Is very attractive. The story Is
beautifully told and the general tone Is good.
The painting Is a landscape representing
that tlmo of the year when the moon has
risen before the sun has yet set. The dell-
cato coloring Is very cleverly managed. The
subject Is treated in a. masterly w y and
the painting Is ono that will do credit to the
collection which wo hope to establish as the
tlmo goes on. "

Accident.
Walter Deloboy of Blue Hill , Neb. , aged 11
years , nnd an Inraato of the Deaf and Durah
Institute In this city , received injuries while
coastlns laat Saturday from which he died
yesterday.
It Is not known exactly how the boy waa
hurt , but It U believed he was thrown from
his own sled by contact with a larger one
and then struck by the latter. Ho had a
wound behind his right car and over his
right cjo.
Ilia companions reported the accident t
once , but the boy was unconscious when
iittachcs of the Institute reached him. Ho
AVOB removed to the institute and medical
assistance rendered , under which he im
proved. He appeared to be out of all danger
until 10 o'clock yesterday morning when a
relapse- come nnd an hour later he died.
The boy's remains were removed to th
undertaking establishment of H. K. Durket
nnd last night were taken to the homo of his

.AMUSEMENTS.
"At ( lay Coney Island" was the Sunday
bill at the Iloyd , presented by a large com
pany of entertainers , the high lights ot
which were Harry Llnton , Jlmmto Harry ,
Alt Holt , Maym Keleo , May Wentworth ,
Mattlc Lockctto and an accompaniment ot
good voices and attractive faces , The piece
drew two large houses and put the audi
ences In the best of humor. "Coney Island"
Booms to have undergone marks of Improve
ment and Is a helper for a blue day ; It la
as good when the mercury Is low an when
It Is floating high. A coterie ot pretty girls
prettier all 'round than the average farce
company boasts of assisted by the fun-
makers , make up a laughable entertain
ment. The music Is jingling , the plrce Is
elaborately costumed and staged , and Llnton
and Harry , Tony Hart and Mark Hart tale
turns at perpetrating the puns. Mayrn
Kelso's splendid contralto volco Is heard
In the ever captivating "Kentucky Babe"
and other favorites. Mattlo Lockotte Is
among the few clever danccis. The LePage
sinters take up a goodly portion of the time
In the second act with a variety of lightning
changes In nongs and dances.
Standing room was at ft premium nt the
Crelghton-Orpheum last evening and ns was
the case last Sunday night the people who
were unable to got cither seats or standing
room In front were accommodated with seats
In the wings on the stage. Vaudeville seems
to bo gaining favor each week and will con
tinue to do no as long as Uie management
of this popular report gives the public Iho
class of attractions that have been forth-
comTng since its opening , six weeks ago
The features of this week's bill are Marlon
Kcrner's "Visions ot Art , " or living pictures ,
and the thrco Mcrkell sisters In novelty
acrobatic work. The visions of art are with
out doubt the most elaborate and effective
works of art of their kind ever seen In this
city. The posing of the subjects , their cos
tuming and the lighting ot these pictures ,
together with the beautiful backgrounds
used In them , can hardly help but gain the
favorable comment of everyone who see- !
them. Six different ones are presented and
of these "Tho Captive , " "Up She Goes" and
"A Plantation Courtship" seemed to please
the audience last evening the most.
The three Merkell sisters , who are beau
tiful and shapely young German girls , do
a most remarkable acrobatic act. Their
work Is done with a finish and grace that
Is admirable. They have been In this coun
try a little more than three months , having
come directly here from Berlin. They are
looked upon in Europe as the most clover
people of their kind In the business. '
Gallando , who models In clay , Is European.
He uses a soft , pliable clay and with only
his hands as tools models heads of Dewcy ,
Lincoln , Uncle Sam and other characters ,
which are quite true to life and really ar
tistic. Ho does his work with a rapidity
that la remarkable. James H. Cullen , In
his monologue parody songs , Is a pleasing
entertainer. His songs and ctoiles are
locnll/ed , and as ho Is the author ot every
thing he slugs , his work Is decidedly orig
inal. Ills song , "Tho Ice Man , " particularly ,
made a hit. Prank LaMondue Is a clever
slack wire walker , but his act la somewhat
spoiled by the horse-play that he puts Into
It to Introduce its wire work. Shnttuck
and Bernard , assisted by n lad of tender
years , are very funny In a skit called "Don't
Lcavo the Room. " Lllllo Western , who
plays on a varied assortment of Instruments ,
and Lizzie Evans and Harry Mills make up
the balance of the very acceptable program.
The latter pair are both good sketch artists.
The smallest things exert the greatest In
fluence. Do Witt's Little Early Risers are
unequalled for overcoming consllpallrc and
liver trouble * . Small pill , best pill , safe pill.

Under Impulse of the busy hands of a big
force of carpenters , cabinet makers and
marble workers the upper stories ot the
new government building are rapidly np-
reaching completion. They will be com
pleted on contract time and their final ap
pearance Is now so neaily approximated that
a very adequate Idea of their flnal beauty
Is obtainable. When the entire building
Is thrown open some time next month
visitors will see one of the most magnifi
cent Iritprlors of which any public structure
In the United State * can boast. The flutsh-
tngs of various marbles , mahogany and oak
are In perfect taste and dlffuso an effect of
elegance and simple grandeur that would
satisfy the most exacting artist. The
spacious corridors and the large and beau-
tlfully finished apartments are In perfect
harmony , and when the new furniture Is In
stalled and the building receives Its com
plement of workers and v Inhere It will be
a marvel of splendid Interiors.
The various officials who will Inhabit the
uncompleted portions of the now govern
ment building have all been assigned their
prospective apartments , and once Installed
there will be no Inconvenient limitations of
space. Ample accommodations are provided
for each department and each Is supplied
with every convenience that can possibly be
required. There are even handsomely fur-
nlehod bath rooms for the judges and the
accessories of the toilet are adequately pro
vided.

The second floor will be largely occupied
by the Hallway Mall service , the Customs
deaprtment , the Revenue department and

CUTS THE GASOLINE BILL
Action of the City Council Cnimcn a
lilRhtlnnr Company to Find Out
tlint It linn a Grievance.
Some bitter feeling has been engendered
between the city and the Globe Light and
Heat company as a result ot the determina
tion of the council to deduct from the Octo
ber and November gasoline light bills of
the company the sum of $74.61 for poor
lighting. The original deduction made by
Gas Inspector Gilbert was $149 22 , but tha
council agreed to cut this In two. Business
Agent Hoagland of the lighting company
declares that ho will not accept this com
promise. Ho claims that the poor lighting
was the result of malicious Injury done to
his lamps by t > oj and men. To this Gas
.Inspector Gilbert says :
"The gas company has never lived up to
its contract to furnish slxtecn-candle-povver
light for the reason that It cannot do so.
The burners that It uses cannot give more
than fourteen-cnndle power. I proposed to
prove this by an expert , but to this Mr.
Hoagland would not consent. Moreover , the
company refuses to furnish new burners
every month as required by contract for the
reason that It cannot afford to. The- whole
difficulty Is a result of the fact that In order
to underbid other competitors the company
entered Into a contract at too low a figure
and It IB now trjlng to get out whole by
giving only such light as the city will sub
mit to. "

Several matters of Importance will be con
sidered by the city council nt Its meeting
tonlRht. The milk dealers ore making u
protest on the amount or the > early license
fro nml It Ifl understood that those who
operate wagons ha\o engaged legal counsel
to represent them nt tonight's meeting.
Ever since the milk Inspection ordinance
went Into elTcct a feu of { 25 has been charged
annually for peddlers using wagons and $10
1 cr annum for milk depots. These fees sup
port the opice of milk Inspector , whose duty
It U to Inspect the dairies and test sampler
of milk. Since the Inspection scheme \\cut
Into effect there has been a noticeable Im
provement In the quality of milk sold hero
und for that reason the city olHclals ha\o
so far declined to take steps toward re
ducing the license to a sum which would
not support the olllce of milk Inspector. The
milkmen who operate wagons assort that $25
for a license la too much and with a view
of having this license reduced to $10 they
ha\o clubbed together and engaged attar *
neys. Major Ensor holds that If the office
of milk Inspector Is to be maintained at all
It must be supported and this cannot be done
If the } early license Is reduced.
A former dairyman who now operates a
milk depot here says that ho f.uors high li
cense and rigid Inspection. Ho says that
the Inspection keeps Omaha milkmen from
coming to South Omaha and prevents to a
great extent the selling of adulterated milk.
All milk dealers' licenses expire on Jan
uary 1 , but up to the present time no nov >
licenses have been obtained on account of
the contention between the dealers In lacteal
fluid and the city officials. It Is expected
that tonight's session of the council will
settle the matter ono way or another.
As was stated In The Bee a few dajs ago
Major Ensor will recommend to the council
that an appropriation be made for the em
ployment of special counsel for the purpobo
of lighting the Twenty-fourth etreet paving
case. Iho major wants the council to set
aside a sum sufficient to secure one of the
best attorneys In Omaha so that the case can
bo taken through the lower courts and Into
the supreme court. The attorney to bo em.
ployed would assist City Attorney Mont
gomery In the cases and would be expected
to fight to a finish. The sura of $66,000 U
still due on the Twenty-fourth street paving
and It Is deemed better to spend $300 or
$1,000 on attorney's fcce than to saddle this
amount onto the taxpajers at largo after
the property owners had signed a petition for
the paving. It may bo necessary to employ
legal assistance In getting out of the tax
levy tangle since Judge Fawcett rendered
his decision In the Cassldy case a few days
ago.
ago.Taking
Taking all these problems Into considera
tion It might be advisable to approprlato
a sum sufficient to fight all of these cases
through the supreme court.
Stlll another matter Is to come up which
will be of Interest to a great many and that
is the removal from office or the retention of
Walbrldge , the present city welghraaster.
Complaints have been made against Wal
brldge and these have been Investigated by
City engineer Deal , who was sent by ths
mayor. Mr. Deal made a report at the last
meeting , but action was deferred in order-
to glvo Walbrldge time In which to prepare
a defense. Those who have occasion to use
the city scales assert that mistakes are fre
quently made which not only cause a losa
of time but of money also. In his own de
fense Walbrldge asserts that there Is a com
bination working against him In order to
secure the place for another. He will havs
an opportunity of airing his grievances to
night and telling his sldo of the story.
Heiinrin from DIII > MOH County.
E. M. Bird , a. prominent stockman ot
Daw son county , was a visitor In the city
ono day last week and In speaking of the
condition of live stock In his section he said
that the county had but few cattle on feed
this winter , although the supply of young
stock is larger thau It has been for years.
There is an abundance of rough feed to Keep
stock In good condition throughout the win
ter and spring. Hogs are plentiful In that
locality and whllo there Is some disease ,
the outlook Is favorable for a big run from
there In the spring. The Irrigating canals Iri
the vicinity of Daw son are furnishing largo
quantities of Ice to eastern and bouthcrn
markets.
Cnrrnll Sa > H In Old Olllvo.
In yesterday's Dee mention v\as made ol
the plan to remove Chief Carroll's olllce to
the room south of the present office. The
chief Is strongly opposed to this , as he eajs
the light Is poor and being placed next to
the boilers would rnako it very uncomfort
able. Ho prefers staying where he Is to tak
ing the south room , which he sajs Is dark
and poorly ventilated , The city engineer
complains that the flooring in his presen
office Is so poor that the soot and smoke
from the furnaces cornea through and spoils
his plans and maps. A new lloor In this
room Is badly needed and will probably bo
laid as soon as some decided action Is taken
on the changes which are contemplated.
