mittee, comprising Messrs. W S. Wright.
J. F. Carpenter and E. M. Andrecacn.
There were five sets of plans submitted. The
first prlie set vat Identified by the word
"By Omaha' in a triangle, the second by the
word 'Omaha' and the third prtre ret by
"No S." There were two other sets sub
mitted, one of which was known as "Prom
enade" and the other ai "One-half." one of
which did come within the limit of cost,
which la placed at 1126.000 for the building
proper It was accordingly ordered that
they be returned to the parties who sub
mitted them, whose identity will not be
made known. The return of the ''One-half"
ret war recommended because its maker had
appeared to entertain a misconception of
the plan and had provided no proper area.
AppoliiMnt-nt I. rotionrd.
The three acts upon which prixes were
awarded will be held pending the commit
tee' further consideration of the appoint
ment of an architect for the building.
Mr Kimball suggested the advisability
of withholding the appointment of an arch
itect tor ten days and offering to the act
marked "Promenade" that time in which
to present u modified design for his gen
eral scheme, Irecausc of the many valua
ble features It contains. Should he fall
to show a satisfactory solution within the
terms of tho progTam Mr. Kimball sug
pested that the author of the first prise
design be selected as the architect with
the understanding that certain modifica
tions of his scheme may be required before
Its final acceptance. This is the plan of
Fisher fc Lawrle.

The plans of risber & Lawrie, vhlchw-ere
warded tht first prize, provide for an
Auditorium building 264 feet long and 182
feet wide. Its east wall Is to be about
sixty-one feet high and Its west wall forty-
eight, owing to the difference in the grades j
of Fourteenth and Fifteenth streets, its
main floor is to comprise an oval-shaped !
arena 1T6 fret long
fret long and seenty-fle feet .
broad, the floor of which Is to be slxry-slx
fret below the roof
Outwardly the building Is to be of simple
design, which is tbe natural result of the
plan. The exterior design shows the stylo
bate on the first story of a strong, simple
nature, and abovr that a series of columns
or pilasters, crowned by the main entabla
ture, and pediments with emblematic orna
mentation disposed at the corners of the
structure, The whole treatment Is In French . fan le put In at tbe cast end of tbe arena

sign is the government buildings In Taris j terior roof garden Just under the roof,
facing tbe Tlace de la Concord. Simplicity i with an opening in the center commanding
of outline and boldness of treatment has a view of the arena. There is also pro
bxtn sought, rather than complexity and i vision for an outside roof garden of ample
multiplicity of parts, and entrances and ! dimensions and a promenade all around
exits have been so arranged as to conform the outside.
to the grades of the streets, thus avoiding
tbe necessity of steps.
Tbe main entrance is located on Fif
teenth street, as It admits of a vestibule
eighteen feet wide along the entire Tlf
trenth street side under the first gallery
surrounding tbe arena without interfering
with tbe seating capacity From the cen
ter of the main vestibule one enters directly
into the arena, and by Inclined planes at
the south and north ends of tbe vestibule
one reaches the first and second galleries
and the roof. There Is not a stairway in
tbe entire structure, it being conceded that
inclined planes are better, easier and safer.
Another reason for locating the main en
trance on Fifteenth street Is that it is
nearest the center of travel and tbe street
there is open for carriages without Inter
ruption from street cars.
Howard -Strret Knt rniicrk.
There are five entrances on Howard street
leading Into a fryer that runs along the
entire north wall, with the exception of a
short distance at the east end Tbe foyer

to suit the grade of Howard streets at the
polnta of entrance. There are also two exits
provided on the south side, opening into the.
alley, one at each end of the stage, which
is located midway of tbe length of tbe arena
against tbe south wall.

tbe arena, two tiers of galleries for seats,
a row of boxes within tbe lower tier of
galleries, a roof garden, a lecture hall in
tbe east end of the building Just a little
above the level of the second gallery, a

ONE OF BEDELL'S CHAMPIONS WORSTED
Dlepla) of Temper by tbe Chief Find. ,
an Cclio in n Hon A moot; I
the .Men After a
I'lre. l
Tbe disorganized condition of the Omaha
fire department was thows Saturday morn- '
itig when engine Company No. 2 and Trurk
Company No. 4 v ere called to a small blaze
at tht comer of Twenty-third street and
Dewey avenue. Chief Kedell wai helping
tht men of the latter company bring In a
line of hose and in doing so became tangled
in a low wire fence around a flown bed
and fell down Lieutenant Gardner, being
unable to maltitain his balance, fell on top !
of the prostrate and thoroughly angry chief.
The lieutenant Jumped to his feet as quickly '
as be could. Hedell faced him and yelled, '
"Did you do that on purpose?"
"No, chief," quietly returned the lieu
tenant. "Chief, no cne pushed you on purpose."
said Fred L. Bugbee, a member of truck j
.o. 4, who also had bold of the line of
hose, "it was an accident and couldn't be
helped."
Kedell sprang like an enraged animal at
Bucbce and clutched him bv the collar of
his shirt Bugbee dropped the host to J
defend himself and Kedell discreetly let j
i go, but ordered Bugbee away from tht fire.
He obeyed the order and remained at the
truck until the fire was out. Bedell then
came to him and said, "Bugbee. what did
I ever do to you that you should sign a peti
tion against me? Haven't I always favored
you?"
"No chltf," was the reply, "you have
never shown me a favor, but htve done
what you could against me."
Kedell turned and walked away.
The incident made many of the firemen
indignant. Tbey saw how- the accident hap
pened and believed the chief's hasty acticn
Inexcusable. When engine company No 2
got back to Its house at the corner of
Elchteenth and Harney streets a fireman
remarked that the chief would tackle the
wrong man some day and get his face
spoiled.
Chief Kedell has five supporters among
tbe twenty men who are quartered in No.
S's house. One of these is Jerome A. LH
lie, driver of the chief's wagon.
Llllie resented the statement that some
body would touch tbe chief and exclaimed:
"I can lick any man in this house that
signed the petition for the chief's removal.
1 Hek anybody from Tom Kochford
down""
Before be knew what had happened
John V Kemp, the smallest man In
tbe house, had landed him on the floor and
was choking the life out of htm. The war
rior begged for mercy and left the house as
soon as he was released.
of the department Trank A. Kennedy, mem- I
ber of the Board of Fire and Police Com
missioners, said'
"Several firemen have told me that they '
are afraid to have Chief Kedell come near
them. One man told me that the members
of the department arc In constant danger.
He said that tbe chief is likely to hit tbem
with an ax if things don't go Just right."
South Omaha News
One of tbe features of the meeting" of tbe
city council last night was a motion of
fered by Atkins withdrawing'the ordinances
asking for permission to land a ferry or I
pontoon bridge on this side of the river !
The motion carried and the ordinances !
were carried away in the pocket of one of
the incorporators of the company. City
Attorney Lambert held that the ordinance
asked for a franchise, which, under tbe
present charter provides for a royalty, or
annuity, to be paid to tbe city every year
Officers of the company asserted that noth
ing but a license was intended, and showed
that a county license bad already been se
cured. Mr. Lambert held to h'.s opinion and
this was read in open session. The full
text of the opinion was printed In The
Bee on Sunday The result of the stand
' taken by Mr. Lambert was voiced by W
King after the council meeting last
night when be said thtt the pontoon bridge
project had been killed, not only by the
city attorney, but by certain business men
who did not seem to desire the improve
ment to be made.
Owing to future ur.tlon taken by the
council Mr. King's talk Is considered In
the nature of a "Josh." as Johnston Intro
duced and secured the passage of a reso
lution directing tbe city attorney to at ones
commence condemnation proceedings to
open N street to the river. It is known
that tbe promoters of the ferry and
pontoon bridge desire K street to be
opened and It was whispered on the
side last night that when there was a pros
pect of opening N street the ordinances
granting a license or franchise to tbe ferry
and pontoon conipany would be introduced
again.
Owing to the absence of Mayor Kelly in
the cast, President Adkins occupied the
cbalr and all members antwered to the
call. Quite a number of the members of
Phil Kearney post. Grand Army of the
Republic, petitioned for the removal of
Officer Ptlack from tbe force, alleging that
he had abused a member without cause.
The matter was referred to the prllce com
mittee. A remonstrance signed by a large number
of business men on X street was presented
against the employment of runners by a
certain clothing house. Chief Mitchell was
directed to see that the nuisance wai
abated. Several licenses Including liquor.
noue movers ana venicle. were granted.
At the suggestion of Martin, screens
will be purchased for fire halls Xo : and S
All saloon keepers who have not paid In
the regulsr license fee of Si 000 will be
closed on June IS. This was thr sense of
the council when the matter war called up
by Johuston. Licenses are due May 1 and
yet some dealers In liquors have not paid
the lirenrc money Druggists will also
