When Sunday morning dawned , however ,
It brought with It a bright and chuerj
eun , which Blralghtwaj began to get action
on the drifts of snow In thf cltj So en-
ccurnglug was the prospect for the BUU to
jetnove the obstructions to the Mdeualks

cleaned their walks during the morning had
dry foot paths by noon. But the blare of

The temperature continued to rise as the

.AMUSEMENTS.
This week -vaudeville bill at the Creigh
ton-Orpheum it. one 01 overage merit and
one that can liardlj fail to amuse the lovers-
cf this form of entertainment U Is what
may be termed a laughing bill and with
the exception of one CT two acts all keep
the audience in an uproar Just what the
hit of the bill IE would lie hard to tell , at
the applause and laughter were about
equally divided among four of llie acts
Watson , Hutchlngs and Edwards are the
headlines and they do a sketch called tlie
' Dramatic Agent" which consists prlucl-
P&llj of "horse plaj , " hut it is "horse
jiluj well dene and beemfc to amuse everj-
oni- , therefore it IB quite acceptable
The Schrode brothers do a very clever
acrobatic act in which the } introduce some
ride-splitting comedy as well as difficult
acrobatic feats One of these feats is c
Qouble-back somersault , by one or the
brothers from a head stand , while another
does a difficult forward-back somersault
Their Imitation of n railroad train in which
the thiee form themselves In the shape of
n hoop and roll around the stage Is not
only difficult but hlgklj amusing Another
umuBlng feature of their act Is a large
raochanlcal bead and bed } which Is used for
a pwlestal "William Schrode , one of the
brothers , * .vas f ormerlj the clew n w ith Han-
Ion's Superba. They are all conscientious
workers and their act Is a big bit
John and Nellie MacCarthy do a diversified
comedy act that makes a hit Their jokes
me all new- and free from \ulgarllj. Their
parodies besides being new are voll rendcrd
to banjo accompaniment
Billy Van , who is an old favorite in
Omaha. lb one of the few burnt cork artlHts
that , In vaudeville1 , Is not joallj tiring
Hit , wittlclbmh and Morlcs are alwajs new
mid never fail to create any amount of
laughter Van has a funny ntyle of his
own , and his fun becomes infectious immo-
ellatelj upon his appearance before his
audience
Lew Ho * ? , who Is a brother of Manager
Jake Koseullial of the theater , dots a King
ing act that is exceptionally well received
His parodies on George Dewey and the late
Spaulbh-American war are well sung and
us is the case with all patriotic songb go
well with the audience. Hose's yodoliug is
nlho ve'rj good and adds greatly to his
hinging act
Ztnr , Karl and Zeno , two men and quite
a t mall bij , do an aerial act that In some
vajc it quite lunarkable One of their
most Imporitint feats IE Hie thiowing of
Master Zetio bj one of the men suspended
liead downward to another and while in the
air the ho ) turns a double somersault.

] HEARD ABOUT TOWN. I ,
John II Maloney from New Tork , fell to
talking about the bother Tammanj and tht
other democrats have been having in their
preparations foi the Jefferson dinner
"Both David B Hill and Grover Cleveland
have be-in Invited. " he said , "but 4t if said
Cleveland will not attend because of his
aversion to Perrj Belmont , president of the
Democratic club and Hill is said to also
dislike Belmont very much , no that It Is
doubtful if either rf them will be present
this year I'crn Belmont was minister to
Spain under Cleveland , but at the demo
cratic national convention of 18H2 ho tie-
came the friend of Hill After Bryan was
nominated In IBfiC Belmont resigned rom
the state central committee and there was
a big meeting at the Madison Square gar
den , over which Belmont presided and
Bourke Cockran was the principal speaker ,
the main object of the meeting being to de
nounce BrvnnVhen Cockran was Intro
duced 'bj ' Belmout he surprised the country
bj making a t-peech in favor of Mr McKln-
ley The democrats who still &wear bj the
Chicago jilutform have not forgotten Bol-
HK nt b conduct on that occasion On the
whole it looks as though the proposed din
ner would fall ar fiat as the proverbial pan
cake. Even Tammany is sore at Belmont
because he firt t " "

dinner , upon -wthich proposition Dick Croker
put hU foot down hard. Every effort is
Holng put forth b } the Tzmnnanj UOE to push
Balmout aside and Croker is now planning
to make the dinner a state affair. As Bel
mout accepted a place temporarily under
Mr. McKiuley he would hardly harmonize
in a fiatherlng of democrats from the rural
districts of New York. "
"Banker Brajton Ivefi If having a peck
of trouble over his J4.374 book containing
a supposed copy In Spanish of a letter of
Columbus about Ihe greal discoverers first

testified that Mr. l\et > ' book Is not printed
from movable tjpe at all nnd that il is a
more imltnlion cf Spanish tvpographj- . The
sum mentioned -was Iho price Mr Jves paid
to Gilbert E Ellis , who represented that
the book was printed from movable tj-pe as
early as 1413 Dills claims that he brought
the book -with him ifrom London in 1890
having previously compared Itwllh a rapj
of Ihe Columbus letler In the Ambioslan

simply shrugged his shoulders -when Ellis
asked If hit book iwas genuine. Ellis first
w anted 1,000 for the book "
"It Is reported that a gieat many of our

The latter part of thlc week the repub-
llcuns and democrats will hold primaries
and convention * for the purpose of selecting
' four members of the city council and three
i members of the Board of Ddoentlon Demo
cratic primaries will be held tin Thursday
' with the convention on Saturday , while the
republicans will hold primaries on Friday
tind a convention on thr following day.
There sceme to be some discord In the dem
ocratic lank * over the fact that the city
central committee has located the First
ward primaries at Twentieth and L streets
This is considered too far out of the way
for a majority of the -voters and It Is Inti
mated that this action has been taken fern
n purpose Just what the purpose is , how
ever. remains to be uten
From street talk It appears that the demo
crats are hustling hard to find n man who
Is strong enough to beat A. R Kelly , pro
vided he consents to be a candidate Jim
Bulla Jack Walters , Al Hunter and TV. S
TVittcn have been talked of. but as all of
these men are employed by the Union Stock
Yards company , it is not thought that they
will consent to allow their nntnct. to come
before the people at the primaries Just
who the democrats will put up In this ward
Is not known , but republicans sa ) it will be
n hard matter to get anyone strong enough
to beat Kelly Barrett and Tralnor in the
Second and Third Wards will most likely be
renomlnated nnd re-elected , at least that
appears to be the feeling at the present time.
In the Fourth ward an effort will be made
to elect n republican to succeed Mort , al
though it is thought that Mort can get the
nomination from the democrats if he wants
It.
Count j AHUM for Picnic ? .
Count j Cleik Haverly has nent another
bill to the cltj for feeding and lodging pris
oners nt the county jail from April 1 , IbflS.
to December SI of the same jear The total
of this bill now amounts to SB 014 05 The
city Is charged with Jl.10f.S3 for the nine
months in IRflB which , with the unsettled
balance leaves the total us noted So far
as the cltj records show no effort has ever
been made to pay this bill , although state
ments are rendered ever } eight or nine
months It seems that there was some earl
of an agreement between the count j' com-
mlbsloners and the city officials some years
ago that In return for certain favors the
cltj wa& not to paj this bill The records
show that for jears these bills have been
re"elved nnd filed and no action taken.

IVORY SOAP PASTE.
In fifteen minutes , with only a calce of Ivory Soap and water ,
you can make a better cleansing paste than you can buy.
Ivory Soap Paste will take spots from clothing ; and will clean
carpets , rugs , kid gloves ' , slippers , patent , enamel , russet leather and
canvas shoes , leather'belts , painted wood-work and furniture. The
special value of Ivory Soap in this form arises from the fact that it
can be used with a damp sponge or cloth to cleanse many articles
that cannot be washed because they will not stand the free applica
tion of water.
