STUDENTS HAVE A HOT TIME
Claim of Oinnha Itlcli
School 1 < oi > ii Over 1lie IliiCMtluit
> of I'rcMlileiit.
AB a result of protracted wrangling In a
heated meeting of the graduating class of
the _ Oinnha High school Wednesday
afternoon the determination was reached
that the class constitution requires
the election of a president to fill
a vacancy arising through resignation.
The trouble came from the announcement
that the president of the class of 1899 , Lawrence -
renco Underwood , intended to resign before
the graduating exercises to join a surveyIng -
Ing party. The feminine section of the class
Insisted that the vice president , who hap
pens to bo of their number , Mies Ethel Mor
risen , should serve ns president after the
present president's retirement. The argu
ment went hot and heavy , with the Inci
dental motion to go Into executive session
to exclude Judge J. W. Ellcr , who though
present as a visitor was coaching his daugh
ter In the parliamentary fight , hut action
was deferred because It was finally dis
covered that President Underwood had not
yet resigned ntid his successor toulJ not bo
legally chosen till hfs resignation had been
tendered.
The clnss decided to extend an Invitation
to llqv. Herring of the First Congregational
church to deliver the baccalaureate sermon.
SOUTH OMAHA NEWS.
The question of what Is to be done about
the complaints In regard to the N street
sewer which empties Into a small crock nt
a point just eouth of Twentieth street will
bo taken up In a few days 1 > y the city clerk ,
the clt ' engineer and city attorney. Quito a
numiber of property owners lhavo protested
against the dlsaferooablo odor which arises
dtirlng warm ueathbr. It Is further asserted
that the flowage Is n breeder of disease.
When this sewer was built U was intended
to bo a combination storm water and sani
tary sewer , and wlUiln the last year or two
nearly all of the residents on N street from
Twenty-fourth street east- have made sani
tary connections with this sewer. At Inter
vals of a few months since that time the
residents In the eastern portion of the city
petitioned ( ho council for relief from the
offensive odors. V '
City Engineer Deal Is authority for the
statement that thg sewer was 'built for sani
tary purposes as well as storm water and
was paid for by the district as such. . No
permits ihavo been Issued by the plumbing
Inspector for any of the sanitary' connec
tions made , BO there is no record of the
number of sanitary connections already
made. Councilman Tralnor has expressed
himself In favor of extending tha sewer clear
to the river andthus , put a stop to the com
plaints which are Hied from tlmo { o time.
Councilman Fltlo asserts that the open sewer
is dangerous and is the cause ot considera
ble sickness In the summer time. Mr. Fltle
further asserts that unless the city takes
stops to a'bato ' the nutsanco the people liv
ing in the scctionVmcntloned 'will appeal to
the courts for reHet.
The building of an extension of the sewer
from Nineteenth street east to a point be
yond the Burlington tracks would not bo
very expensive , as , Ijttlo or no excavation

My wife has been a sufferer
from Whites for many months.
She had severe headaches
and pains in the back , ac
companied with dizziness or
fainting spells , until she would
fall on the floor and have to
go to bed. Nothing relieved
her until we tried Wine of

per cent better.W.

When a woman grows pale , languid , dizzy and hysterical
when suffering Is written plainly on her face it Is not difficult
( o trace the cause. Usually It is that offensive and debilitating
disease known 05 Leucorrhoea or whites. There are so many
things which cause this "female trouble" that very few women
escape It at some period of their liver. Doctors treat It locally.
Sometimes they help a little. Often their treatment does no
good whatever. There is really but one cure but one single
medicine which never falls to relieve. It Is Wine of Cardui. In
ordinary cases , complete restoration of the womanly organs to
perfect health follows its use. In severe and complicated cases ,
. special advice is given free ,
