10 TITE OMAnA DA1LT MEi FRIDAY, FETlTtUAKY 14, 1002. MEANS LITTLE TO THIS CUT Vast lidi Opsisd Hsrs Will B lilt On ts Chicago WINDY CITY 'ACKERS ARE IN CONTROL Omaha Commercial flab, So "aye Army Officer, Is gkootlna- la Iha Dark oa (onmlmrr op- ply Proposition. The information given out In regard to toe open In of bids at Omaha for supplying beats for tha Phillpplns Islands was incor reet In one or two details. Tba bids will be epened at Omaha today and tba lowest bid will be sent to Chicago with a recom mendation by the commissary officer at Omaha, This bid will ba compared with tha lowest blda received at Chicago and Kansas City and tha lowest bidder will receive tha Contract. In tha opinion of representatives of tha tommlssarr department there la too much Importance attached to tha opening of bida In Omaha for this claas of material. "You aee," said he, "that tha largest packing bouses at South Omaha are managed by men who are also Interested In Chicago. In that city they hare all arrangements made for the apeclal work required on this class of meat. It will be easy for them to teep the work in Chicago by arranging their ida so that the Chicago house will have the lowest one. "The Commercial club aeema to be shoot ing la the dark on the question of commis sary auppllea in Omaha. What would do the jobbers more good than anything elae would be to have restored to this city the Kinshasa of atorea previously bought at la point. "A short time ago we bought all of the ommlaaaiT atorea required in the depart ment at Omaha and also purchased for otne of the posts in other departments. Mow we only buy In Omaha for Forte Crook, Meade, Niobrara and Robinson. The uppltes for Forte Riley and Leavenworth, the two largest posts In the department, and for Forts Reno, Bill and Logan H. Roots are purchased either at- Kansas City r BL Lools. It may be well that this Is ton, for theee cities are nearer the posts, put there is no such an excuae for another change which haa been made. We used to buy auppllea In Omaha for Forta D. A. Hus Sell and Douglas. Today they are bought In Chicago and shipped through Omaha to their destination. Wa now buy for only tour posts at Omaha, where we formerly bought for nine, and this la the business Which the Commercial club should look after. It aeema to me. The packers will take care of the meats. If they can get them out cheaper in South Omaha than In Chicago they will probably do It, and If the award la made for Omaha it would not be surprising to see the meat prepared in the Chicago housea and ahlpped to thla 4ty." , OMAHA MAKES A GOOD HIT ). Faal Mts Highly Pleased wit a Reception Given Them In r ' This City, Omaha hospitality la marked high in l Paul, while Kansas City haa been put flown in the Minnesota capital aa a very ahllly proposition. Upon the return of the committee of the St. Paul Commercial club from lta trip to Kansaa City and Omaha the St. Paul Dispatch reports: The committee waa treated better by far 8n Omaha than in Kansaa City, though their atay -waa longer in' the Missouri town. It Is not in the amount of amuse ment and entertainment offered in the two el tied that this conclunlon is reached, but in the warmth and seal of entertainers In making visitors feel at home. The newspaper then goes on to relate the chilly reception given the visitors at Kansaa City, and adds: Things were different In Omaha. The train waa expected at o'clock, in the morning and a delegation of half a dosen leading men was waiting at the depot aa It pulled In. The aamo men and aa many more gave a breakfast to the Mlnnesotans at a first-class hotel. Omaha businens men gave freely of the time in explaining their progress in getting an auditorium. More than that, some fifty of them sat down to lunch with tha visitors at the Commercial club. They were prominent buslnees leaders and men of affairs, in cluding Charles Pickens, manager of the Paxton-Oellagher company; Thomas Fry. Eanager of the Booth Packing company; r. Weller, of the Richardson Drug com pany; Mr. Rector, of the Rector-Wflhelmy company; George Kelley, O. D. Klpllnrw. Ferdinand Haarman and J. A. Sunderland. Most painstaking of the Omaha people Was President F. H. Sanborn of the audi torium board of directors; O. W. Hoobler. rotary of the board. John E. Utt. sec retary of the Commercial club, and J. frank Carpenter, lta president, were alao eager to enow good wllL INSPECTS ELECTRICAL WIRING City Electrician Sohnrl Asserts that Provisions of Ordinances Are Strictly Bnforeed.

AERONAUT'S MIND AFFECTED King Mnrphy Telle Insnnlfy Board He Hna Aeeeaded Close ' te God. On an Insanity warrant a worn out by hla wife, Charles K. Murphy, more generally known aa "King" Murphy, which name ba used In advertising his dally balloon aacen slons at Manawa last summer and at South Omaha on New Year's day, waa taken be fore Dr. Tllden and the insanity board yes terday morning. The board after examination was inclined to believe that the warrant waa justified, but gave Murphy into the custody of his brother and mother, who asked the privilege of caring for htm at their home in South Omaha and who will send him to a sanitarium for a time if pos sible. The aeronaut haa conceived the Idea that hla ascensions have taken him near to God and that now God haa become a special guardian of hla person and given him the power to rule his balloon by the simple exertion of his mind. The doctors concede that his aerlQl trips may have proved too great a nervous (train and aided hla de rangement LIVINQ ANIMALS OP THE WORLD. A Popalnr Work on Natnral History Containing n Taoasnnd Photo- graphs from. Natnre. Once upon a time geographies and books of natural history were illustrated with pic tures or wild beasts that never were on sea or land. They bore the names of actual animals, but were evolved like the German professor's elephant from the ar tist's Inner consciousness. When museums of natural history came Into being these grotesque fancy sketches gave place to pic tures made from stuffed specimens, which were less interesting than the old. wood cuts, but truer to the life aa true to life as the picture of a dead beast could pos sibly be. Then came the artist, who was g hunter also, and could draw a wolf, for instance, that the wolf's family would praise for lta likeness and critics who had never seen a wolf would admire as a spir ited work of art. Witness the rise of Seton-Thompson and the vogue of "Wild Animals I Have Known." But now comes the photographer with his kodak and the snapshot, ahowlng the atag at bay, the wildcat leaping, the rattlesnake colled to strike, bids fair to supplant, for practical ' purposes, the handiwork of the cleverest artist. So mighty a nlmrod aa President Roosevelt has come out in favor of the hunter who bunta with the camera only. especially in the United States, where the big game that was once abundant la now on the highroad to extermination. It is the use of the camera that gives lta great and unique value to "Living Animals of the World," a popular work on natural history, of which Messrs. Dodd, Mead ft Co.- have Just begun the publication. The text of this elaborate work, though scien tifically accurate, la written in a thor oughly popular style, but Its Interest is dwarfed by the extraordinary attractive ness of the lustrations. Each of tba twenty-four sections is to have a colored cover and frontispiece,, several full-page, half-tone platea and many smaller pic tures, all reproducing photographs taken direct from the birds,- beaata and fishes they portray. To have filled a volume with plcturea of domestle animals only would have been a simple task, but many mem here of tha cat family, of the dog family and of other subdivisions of the world's fauna exist only in a wild state and hava had to be tracked to their re spective lairs. The South Sea islands, the Interior of the Australian continent, the1 jungles of India, the wilds of South Amer ica, the plains and mountains of tbe United States and tbe desolate wastes of Arctic America have been Visited by the devotees of science and aport, who have returned laden not only with pelts and car casses, but dry platea and films. The supply of photographic material drawn upon for this monumental work waa virtually unlimited. The ducheas of Bedford waa .among the moat liberal con tributors to It slid so waa Hon. Walter Rothschild, for whom photographs have been made In all parts of tbe world. One of the pictures shows Mr. Rothschild him self with a silk bat on bis bead, riding one of his enormous tortoises; another ahowa bta four-in-hand of sebraa broken to harness. Several of tbe views of wild ani mals taken by Lord Delamers in Africa with a telephoto lens gives vivid glimpses of life in tbs Jungle, There is something new and startling in the sight of Hons, leoparda. baboons, gi raffes, rhinoceroses and sebras caught In the act, aa It were. In the heart of their native wilds, v Not the least curious and valuable of the pictures are those of fishes in their natural surroundings, actually takes from water. In sea and stream. For these the editor la Indebted to Dr. R. W. Shufeldt of Washington. Some of the beat plates were made at tbe New York, "soo;" others at the Eng lish and continental sqotoglcal gardens, while others still were obtained from the owners of prlvats game preserves and from the directors of the publio collections ot Europe. Aa element of humor appears In tbe pictures ot Carl Hagenbeck's trained animals performing their feats and ot orang-outangs and other apes at play. Though the strength of the work may be eald to He In its presentation of wild ani mals photographed In their habitat, tbe ed itor baa not disdained to introduce museum specimens where plcturea ot living crea tures were not to be had. Ia thla way the work haa a completeness which otherwise could not have been obtained. At It stands it Is an unrivalled portrait gallery ot furred, finned and feathered animals. Tha Illustrious number 1,000 and fill, with the text, 850 quarto pages. ' The work will be Issued vtn twenty-four weekly parte at tbe nominal price of 10 cents per section, or 16 cents by mall.

WILL BE SIMILAR TO -NJUNCTION SUIT Conncllman Haseall Annonneea Hla Intention at Going to Lincoln to Hear the A.-atnrnt la the Mandamus Proeeedlags. City Attorney Connell Is engaged in pre paring his answer to the application ot two members of tha Real Estate exchange for an alternative writ of mandamus requiring the city council to either reconvene as a board of equalisation or show cause why it should not do so. "The answer will be similar In matter to tbe answer 1 made to the ' injunction pro ceeding before Judge Dickinson, but differ ent In form," said he. "It will probably ba ready by Saturday night, but it won't be presented before next Tuesday, Febru ary 18, as that is the day set for arguing the motion before the supreme court. Nothing would be gained by filing It before, because the court wouldn't take It up be fore .that time. I shall go to Lincoln for thla purpose Monday." Councilman Haseall has also signified hla Intention of going to Lincoln, to be present during the argument of the case. REDELL HEARING NEXT WEEK Fire and Police Commlsatonere Set Next Wednesday aa Date for Trial. ( The Board of Fire and Police Commis sioners met yesterday morning and set the time tor hearing the John Redell case for Wednesday, February 18, at 10 a. m. Mayor Moores, Commissioners Frank A. Kennedy and M. H. Collins, City Attorney Connell and Clerk, Klerstead were present. Com missioner Kennedy Introduced a resolution to the effect that the chargea against Re dell, as chief of the fire department, be heard on the above date, and mentioned "the complaints made and filed with thla board by John W. Bruder, and also the charges and specifications made and filed against him as such chief by Fred J. Bug bee, and also the chargea made and filed against him by Martin J. Dineen and about eighty-one other firemen," as tbe Indict ments which will be heard and investigated on that date. . . Tbe clerk was Instructed to serve written notice upon Redell and his three attorneys. Tbe board waa informed that, at last ac counts. Redell waa out of the city, having gone to New York to attend the funeral of a brother. The hearing will be held whether or not Redell is present. The attorneys for Redell are undecided as to their future course in the matter of tbe hearing. C. C. Wright, one of the at torneys, said: "Mr. Redell la In Chicago, but we expect him to return today or- to morrow. We will then decide what to do. For my part, I do not see what we can gain by going before the board. However, Mr. Redell'a desire and the advice ot coun sel will govern the matter." Doing Good.
