Monday night tho North Omaha Improve
ment club turned Its meeting over to expo
nents of tho artistic nnd beautiful. The reg
ular program was dispensed with nnd the
evening was devoted to n program arranged
by tho principal and pupils of tbo Saratoga
school,
. The program was opened with a piano
solo, "Moonlight on the Hudson." by-Miss
Jordan, followed by a chorus, "Juniata," by
puptlo ot tho Klghth grade of the Saratoga
school. A vocal solo, "flood Night, My
Child," was rendered by Miss Utley. Hay
Collin of the Seventh grade of tho Saratoga
school, who won tho ptlze for thnt grade at
tho recent Homo Patronage contest, read
tho prize-winning essay. This was followed
by a select reading, "Tho Frenchman's Di
lemma," by Miss Robinson. A whistling
ehoniH nnd serenade by pupils of the l.lghth
grade preceded tho reading of the prize-winning
essays of tho Fourth and Klghth grades
nt tho Home Patiouago contest by J. J.
Smith.
The report of tho club committee on sani
tation and beautifying of grounds com
pleted tho evening's program. This report
was presented by J. V. Craig, who Illus
trated his remarks with a plat showing two
styles of parking olrcets. The plan whl.h
ho favored was one showing two feet of
grass 'between the sidewalk and the lot line,
with six feet occupied with a row of sh.ulo
trees between tho sidewalk and the drive
way. This would require fourteen feet on
each side of the street, reducing the spam '
to be paved In a sixty-foot street to thirty- 1
two feet, a wpaco ample for nil street pur-
poses nnd which can be maintained nt about .
half tho cost of an unpnrked street. Mr.

Upon advices received from tho police ot
Kansas City several ot the principal hotols
, of Omaha havo been warned against two
confidence men who uro said to hnvo worked
upon the hostclrles of tho Kaw city a now
, flimflam game. Tho men, who represented
themselves ns employes of a well known
, business houso In Kansas City, Introduced
the trick by asking the clerks of tho hotels
i to change silver money fnr bills. They
had three packages of coins wrapped in
paper, each packages bearing In red Ink
the nmount contained nnd the nnmo nnd
address. "E. J. Johnson. 716 Walnut street."
Ono package contained $5 in quarters,
another $10 In halves and a third $:0 in
dollars.
This request was repeated every day for
a week, Each day tho hotel clerks would
open tho pnekago and count the monoy bo
fore passing over the bills. Finally, how
ever, tho "con" men made It n point to call
at a very busy time. Thoy submitted tho
packages marked with rod Ink In the usual nf our products
by tho government
of storage reservoirs, which would not only
keep tho water from committing damage,
but would pormlt its utilization for irrlga
tlon purposes nnd the consequent improve
ment of tho west.
At thn conclusion of tho reading of this
letter John Steel moved that tho Commer
cial club ot Omaha endorse the appropria
tion nt present pending in congress for re
deeming western arid lando by means of
Irrigation. Tho motion carried unanimously
and Secrotary IJtt was instructed to notify
tho members of Nebraska's senatorial aud
congressional delegations.

Hon. Peter Janscn of Janson, Nob., was
a visitor of tho club nnd at tho conclusion

Among other things Mr. Janscn eald: "As
