with assault end battery. On this warrant
an arrest was made and the agent taket
before the county judge ol Thuraton county
who held him in brmdE , vhlch the offlcia :

Morgan applied to Judge Munger of thi

called nndwere ushered Into the sittini
room. Henhley stated thai be and Holt de
sired to luaxe the agency for a couple o
weeks for the purpose of going to "Washing
ton. "Witness informed the men that the ;
could not go , after which Holt answered
"J umpired ( being treated like a slave. "
"Witness said that irfter rmakiug tbe fore
polng 'statement Holt seized an iron poke
and make in attempt to strike , but th
weapon "waswrested Irom his bands , ufte
which h"e"was taken to the guard house am

Ov ing to thr absence of certain -witness * !
u further hearing of the case was continue
until next Saturdnv , when the defendan
rwlll introduce testimony in support of hi
contention that the United States officer
have no _ authority to act in the premises
IHolt's position is that ne Is a citizen of th
United States , holds land In accordance wit
the ptwlMons of the laws of the countr
tnd for yaars has enjoyed all of the right
and privileges of other citizens of the .au

no right .to taue cognizance of the case.

A ent Morgan ays that bis detention an
( being kept a-wuy from the agency is work
ing a great injury to the Indians. There nr
nearly 100 leases of lands which the partic
are ready to clgn , but as be is unable to li
there and attend to them the farmers an
stockmen are likely to go elsewhere an
peeurV lands for the coming season. It i
urged that the time tor putting in the sprin
crop is almost at hand and that if the lease
are not executed within a Jew days muc
of the land -will remain idle rbjs year.
Speaking of the trouble at tbe agenc ;
Agent Morgan said : "It is the same old diffi
culty with which we ha-ve had to conten
for years. There are a number of men u
there -ttho are mischief .makers and if the
cannot run thlugf to cult themselves th
want to etir tip u row. Captain Bwk ha
the same trouble and so did Captain Mei

ArebitectR McDonald and Latenser.wbt
have been eelected t > y the Board of E3uca-
tion to draw plans of tbe new High scboo :
and three grammar eshoolf soon to b" built
will also art as superintendents of construc
tion of their respective buildings if th <
board concurs in tbe recommendation thai
the committee on buildings and propert )
will make at the next meeting. Their com
pensation for both the drawing of the plan ;
and specifications and for the superintend-
ency of construction will be 5 per cent o :
the contract cost of the buildings , the regu
lar professional figure for the -work.
The buildings and property commlttei
reached this determination after an erten-
slve consideration of the situation. Tn <
members admit that the building * mlgb
possibly be erected a little cheaper if othe :
I Fuperintendents besides tbe architects wen
I appointed , but they dc not believe that thi
result would It ? so satisfactory If tbe archl-
teas -were not employed as suj > erintendent !
they would be paid 3 per cent for their plans
Tbe extra 2 per cent to DP paid for the su <
perintendence , basing the calculation on thi
estimate that the buildings nil ! cost $250-
Ot > 0 , amounts to $5,000. If separate sui > er
I Intendenls were appoinle/d they would drav
> about $150 per month. The High school mai
would be employed for ajiout a year , hi ;
balary amounting therefore to Tl.SDO. J
separate superintendent would bave to b
employed for tbe three other buildings , am
they would work about three months and :
half each , their aggregate salary beta ;
12,700 The Uital cost of the superintend
ence under this plan would therefore b
some ti.uOO. or sr.OO less than will be pali
tbe architects. It is maintained that th
thorough knowledge of the plans and speci
ficatlons that tbe arcbitects will possess wil
be worth more than this extra 5500.

Ab is customary at this season of th

the North Side Improvement club. Park
Commissioner E. J. Cornish made an i-
teufled uddiess.
i "The trouble with you people up here. "
said Mr. Cornish , "is that you awoke to the
I interest of your -parks too late. You appeared -
| peared to thow considerable indignation be
cause the pest house vas located in Fon-
tanelle park , but if you had been up and
aJter Toitr interests tEfc iMiuuces are the pest
house would liave been located elsewhere
1 do nut know but the action of the Board of
Health will prove to be a good thing foi
| this part of tbe city in that it bas aroused
you to tbe fact that you have iparks up here
which ought to lie looked after.
"The policy of tbe board now is to ap
portion the money set aside for its use
among the different parks according to the
percentage of tax ipaid Into the fund by the
people living in tbe neighborhood of tbe
several parks. The board has caused to be
planted in Miller park some S3.0DO trees
We have thousands of trees at Brownvillc
whicb we own , but which -we have uot the
money to bring to Omaha. It would not be
a bad idea for tbe friends of Fontanelle
park to subscribe a few dollars anlece to
ward n fund to be used in ( bringing those
trees to Omaha and planting them In this
park. "
Mr. Cormsh gave figures from tbe records
in che treasurer's ofbce showing how the
assessed valuation of property had improved
in tbe vicinity of Haassom park over and
above the improvement in property Jn ether
auctions of the city.
John Powers , president , and John Butler
of the South Side Improvement club were
present at the meeting us gutets and each
made a short address.
A resolution was adopted asking tbe Board
of Education to establish an eighth gradt
room at Saratoga school.
Anoth-er resolution was adopted atklng that
some of the old buildings at Fort Omaha be
condemned and that the military authorities
b * requested to remove the squatters from
the reservation and sell cuch buildings at
can be of an > use.

General Maaaper WabHter's jiurpow in
britiglng tbe matter upwas to bate tbe
pound ! c'ose Chicago street , between Tenth

extend acrcBs that thoroughfare. The ( struc
ture is to run diagonally from southeast to
northwest mm the coruer of Tenth street
and tbe alley south of Chicago over and
across Chicago street to Eleventh. Tbe depot
prrper will tie 20fixr.n feet , and from its
northwest end a platform ol the saaie width
nnd 100 feet long will txtend. y
Mr. "Wolmter explained that if Chicago

rnndv.-ay fifty feet wide along the west face
of the depot to the alley south. Tblr tlley
will also be widened to forty feet along its
entire length from Tenth to Eleventh stree's
TheBe roads will be paved by tbe company
Manager "Webster wanted the council tenet
net at once on an ordinance vacating Chicago
cage street , but the rity attorney believed
that the measure thould contain previsions
comjK-lllng the company to keep the pro
posed roadways in good repair. The ordi
nance was therefore referred to the cltj- at
torney , and will be Introduced at tonight's
council meeting , with or without amend
ments.
Mr "Webster also announced that he will
some time this week file tbe plat showing
the tracks that the company proposes to
build on itn right ofway. . This plat Is re
quired by the ordinance granting the right
of way.
