Dclar in securing pole nnd other con
struction material will prevent the ail
sons' Oas and Electric Light company from
having Its line ready by May 25 to carry
out Its llKhtlns contract with the city.
ThlH delay has been unavoldablo on the part
of tho company and Is In a great rneaiuro
due to the action of tho city officials, at
whose request tho company changed Its
pole line from Ilroadway to the alley north
of that thoroughfare. This necessitated an
Immense amount of extra work and tho
placing of an entire new lot of poles.
Manager Nichols of tho Citizens' Gas and
Electric Light company hopes to have th
work of construction so far completed by
May 25 that the current can be turned tn
tho circuits to mako a test of .tho new en
closed altt mating arc lamps on tho towers
at Twenty-first street and Fifth aenue and
on Oakland avenue. Tucso arc the two
nlnrra whero the council decided to experi
ment with tho new lamps and test their
light-giving power from the towers. Tho
result of this test will determine whether
the towers shall lie retained or tno lamps

in chancing Its polo line from the streets
to tho alleys at tho request of tho city
council the electric company has met with
many engineering difficulties, duo to tho
Irregular courso of some of the alleys
through which it 1b designed to run tho
polo lino. Tho fact that tho alleys arc In
no many places broken into Dy pruaio
property has also been a cause of delay,
as It has bcea necesary for the electric
light company to securo the consent of such
property owners.
Could lime Snveil Time.
The alleys wero selected at tho roquest
of tho mayor and city council for tho pur
poso of removing ns far as possible tho
unsightly poles from tho business streets
of tho city. Tho company could have saved
much tlmo by maintaining the polo line on
Broadway, which It purchased with other
equipment from tho Council' Uluffs Gas and
Klectrlc company, but In deference to tho
wishes of tho city fathers In the matter
tho company Is constructing a compete
new lino through tho alleys north of Broad
way. Tho old polo line on Broadway will
bo removed entirely.
Tho work of stringing the feed wire and
crossarmlng tho motor bridge has been
completed. This was a difficult and tedious
piece of work, because It was necessary to
have tho wires placed under tno nriago and
at such a distance below so as to remove
nny possible danger of contact with the
metal girders of tho structure. The work
of stringing the feed wlro from the bridge
cast will be. begun cither today or to
morrow. The company docs not cirect to be able
to do any commercial lighting for several
months, as entirely new wiro will be used
nml all tho who now employed In commer
cial circuits will be discarded. The central
station will be placed at 26 Pearl street for
transforming and controlling the current,
which will bo received from Omaha. The
machinery for the station Is here and tho
work of Installing It will bo begun this
week.

The congregation of tho Broadway
Methodist church celebrated yesterday the
ninth anniversary of the dedication of Its
handsome placo of worship with special
services, at which a large amount of the
sum needed to meet a certain portion of
Indebtedness shortly becoming due was
raised.
Tho Broadway Methodist church building
was erected a little over nine years ugo
at a cost of about 12,000, to which wits
added 31,000 for additional ground. There
was an indebtedness of $3,000 on tho old
church building and another $3,000 was ex
pended for a pipe organ. The Interest
charges on the debt have been paid and
about $24,000 of the principal has been
wiped off. Tho church property, including
tho parsonage. Is estimated to be worth
now between $55,000 and $C0',000.
At the service yesterday afternoon step3
wero taken to raise $3,000, which will be
required to meet tho back and accruing ,
Interest due February 1, 1602. The con
gregatlon responded liberally and Pastor
Calfee had tho satisfaction of announcing
that the greater portion of the amount
needed had been promised before tho close
of tho service. The subscriptions promised
nre payablo In ten monthly Installments.
A noticeable feature of the debt-raising
was the promptness with which the
younger members of the congregation
added their names to the subscription list.
An attractive musical program wbb ren
dered and Rev. A. C. Hirst, D. D., pastor
of tho First Methodist church of Omaha,
delivered a forceful sermon.
In tho evening the anniversary service
of the Epworth league was held, the paB
tor, Bcv. W. J. Calfee, occupying the pul
pit. These officers of tho league for the
ensuing year wero Installed by tho pastor:
President, John Sylvester; first vice pros!

IJES MOINES, May 12. (Special.) The
people of Wlntcrsct will vote the latter
part of tho month on a franchise for an
electric railroad to be run from Dcs Moines
to Wlnterest. The franchise for the lino
from Crcston to Wlnterest was voted fa
vorably some time ago and engineers hae
been locating the line and preparing for
tho commencement of work. There now
teems no doubt that the line will be con
structed. Tho franchise asked for by Dos
Moines people will also bo passed and
as soon as that Is done work will be com
menced on the cxtenslou of. the lino from
Valley Junction to Wlnterest.
Tht belief Is also prevalent In Wlnterset
that as Boon as work Is begun on these
lines the Burlington will commence con
struction of n lino to Wlnterset, and pos
sibly tho Bock Island will make some ex
tensions. Wlntcrsct has been set off on
one lino of railroad, and that u stub line,
10 long that It has been retarded In
growth, but with the coming of the elec
tric lines a boom is anticipated. Nothing
has been done on tho proposed electric
road to Knoxvllle, the company waiting on
the army post matter. The surveys for
the line northeast from lies Moines through
Story and Hardin counties aro being made
and these are some Indications that this
road will be built as soon as the others,
llrtl (Ink i:ntilou.
Juno U the people of lied Oak will vote
on enlargement of the corporate limits
of the city of Bed Oak Junction. It Is
proposed to take In all the suburbs and
make tho city include 2.S00 acres, absorb
ing tho vlllngcs of Orlfflthville and other
suburbs. This will Increase tho popula
tion of tho city to nearly 5,000.
(rent Wentcru .Junction.
The people of Bockwcll City have been
practically assured that that city will bo
made the Junction of tho Great Western
between its Omaha and Sioux City branches.
Tho new road will run almost direct from
Kort Dodge to Bockwell City and there
divide, one branch going througn iiarian
to Omaha and the other veering to the
north and going directly to Sioux City.
Survey work is being done In several places
In that part of the state.

Tho state treasury yesterday received

of collections due entirely to the work ot

LEAD. S. U., May 12. (Special.) Early
Saturday morning the Homestake company
began clearing away tho debris nt the
Highland hoist, which was made tn the
explosion of the boiler Friday night. At
the time of the accident It' was thought
that the loss to the company would amount
to several hundred thousand dollars In
delay caused by tho shutting down of ono
of the principal hoists for the ore and tho
sawmill. After examlnallou by the com
pany's chief engineer It was found that
two of the boilers arc unharmed and the
other machinery Is all right, so that the
sawmill can soon be started up again.
There Is a larger supply of ore on hand
for the mills than figured on 1'rlday night
and the reserve of timbers for tho mine
Is also larger than at first estimated, It
Is not likely that It will be necessary to
closo down nny of the mills, although
some of the stamps may be hung up tem

CHICAGO, May 12. After a tour of the
west, Including visits to several colleges
which had been the objects of his benefac
tions. Dr. D. K. Pearsons has returned to
Chicago and announced that he has drawn
a line through Chicago and has disinherited
everything and everybody east of that lino
from any thare In the money bo still ex
pects to give away.
Not one penny, Dr. Pearsons says, ever
will go to any Institution east of Chicago.
The million or two dollars which he In
tends to dispose of within the next year Is
all for the west.
Dr. Pearsons' statement was drawn out
partly by tho visit of a trustee of Middle
bury (Vt.) college, who camo hero to seek
an addition to his endowment fund.
"1 came back from Missouri with ray
mind made up." said Dr. Pearsons to a re
porter. "I ha'v drawn a chalk line north
and south through Chicago and I shall
never go east of that line.
Siiiuet IiIiik HaiiilHonie for Chicago.
"I have not forgotten Chicago, and 1 am
going to do something handsome for the
city before long. I have my plans all laid
now. But after I saw thoso tall, clear-eyed
young fellows out In Missouri I made up
my mind where the rest of my money should
go."
Dr. Pearsons his at last retired from
business In Chicago. Hereafter he will dc
vote himself to gardening, raising chickens
and driving about the country near his
place at Hinsdale.
Speaking of his plans nnd his recent
western trip, Dr. Pearsons said:
"I srent four weeks at Eureka Springs,
and I havo como back here feeling like a
man S.". years old. Even at that I went
there for my wife's health, not for my own
Before going to the spring! I visited
Springfield, Mo., where I am building a
sclnce hall for Drury college. There are
300 of tho finest looking joung fellows and
girls there you ever saw.
"There are Indians there, too keen-eyed
young fellows. I did not promise them any
thing, but I am going there after a while
to look at their school, I believe in cdu
eating the Indians."
