The house on the Forbes place , near Flor
ence lake , -nhlch the city Intended to use as
a smallpox hospital , was destroyed by flro
Wednesday night. This house , with the sur
rounding premises , was recently leased by
the city for a term of flvo > ears , at a rental
of $25 per month , and the Intention was to
take possession at once and put it In condi
tion for hospital purposes , but some persons
In the \tclnlty of the property objecting to
the location of a pest house in the neighbor
hood , sued out an Injunction , which 1s yet
to be heard. The destruction of the house ,
however , practically dissolves this Injunc
tion. There Is a strong suspicion that the
building was set on fire.
For the Soliliero' Monument.
Although the accounts have not been com
pletely checked the county officials announce
that the net proceeds of their team shoot
with the city officers amount to about $530.
In accordance with the purpose of the match
this amount will be used as the beginning
of a fund to build a soldiers' monument In
Omaha. As soon as the account is com
plete the managers of the shoot expect to
cair a public meeting at which a monument
association will bo organized and further
plans decided on. The money now in the
treasury will bo turned over to the assocla-
loii and the organization will take measures
to add to the fund.

t SOUTH OMAHA NEWS.
The effort now being made In Omaha to
have the Board of Education of that city
adopt a civil service method for the employ
ment of teachers In the puullc schools bas
cflled attention to the necessity for some
such plans here. In the opinion of a greit
many people who reside In South
Omaha there Is altogether too much
politics In the Board of Education. It
has been openly charged Urns and again
that positions as teache's ? nd Janitors
are obtained through political Influ
- fultnful and competent
ence. No matter ho-v
petent teachers are they must go llmiugh
the same process of electioneering every
year and to a great many this Is distasteful.
Applicants for positions call on members of
the board at Uielr places of business , as
well as at their homes and friends of the
applicants do the same , eo that for a week
or two before an election of teachers mem
bers get very little reel.
By some It Is deemed humiliating for a
teacher to have to call on a member at
his place of business and make a plea for
support , but It Is done right along. No
doubt the members of the board would be
willing to agree upon some arrangement
w Hereby elections could bo held without BO
much lobby Ing. ( .Quito a number of the
teachers have ESrJed hero for several years ,
and would bo ulfglblo on a. list made up of
those who vvouldjiot be expected to renew
applications every year. Messrs. Wyman
and Lott , the Cwo republican members of the
board , stated yesterday that the Idea of es
tablishing a sort of civil service list Is a
good one and as for themselves they would
like to see euch a plan tried. All kinds of
political deals are now made to secure po-
jltlons under the board and especially Is this
true with Janitors. Applications for teachers'
positions brings forth friends and relatives
Into the flght and the consequence is that
all kinds of promises are made and broken.
Tbo breaking of the ante-election promises
causes hard feelings which often takes con
siderable tlmo to overcome. No reflection Is
cast upon tlio present Board of Education.
for It has but carried out the usual custom.
By going over the list of teachers carefully
It la thought that enough could bo found to
place upon a civil service platform to mate
rially * reduce the number of applications
for positions. In this way the members
would bo spared a great deal of worry and
the teachers and their frleuds would bo
much better satisfied.
It le barely possible that this matter maybe
bo brought up at some future meeting of the
board.
Arniour'M Aimlv er nry.
Yesterday was the first anniversary of the
operation of Armour & Company's packing
plant In South Omaha At 9 o'clock on the
morning of July 20 , 1S98 , the first hog vvas
killed. Since that tlmo the plant has been
in operation steadily and 009,170 hogs have
been killed. Of cattle 92,139 head have been
slaughtered , while 149,390 eheep and 947
calves have been sent to the coolers. This
Is considered a very credltablo showing for
the first year's operations and General Su
perintendent Howe was yesterday receiving
: ho congratulations of his friends. Since tbo
plant was opened a great many Improve
ments have been made , among them being
iho erection of a largo nine-story cooling
tjouse for tbo storage of liogs. Eight new
smokehouses are now under coureo of con-
etiuctlon and when these are In operation
the smoking capacity of the plant will bo
nearly doubled. The plant now employs
1,700 people.
