AFFAIRS AT SOUTH CMAfiA Ordiitiu to Xeriltto Jnnk Dsalsn Will ' ! Prtpartd. LIBRARY BOARD WILL PURCHASE SITE appal at meat of Members of Library rl U Defective and Will Have to Be Made Over Agala br Mayor. Two little boys living on the south tide were called before Judge King a day or two ago for stealing a email quantity of Iron from a railroad company and, while one was discharged, the eldest was sent to the county jail for thirty days. The arrest and trial of these youngsters called the attention of the officials of the lty to the necessity for an ordinance governing Junk dealers. Councilman Martin secured the passage of a motion by the council Tuesday night for the preparation of -an ordinance by. the city attorney for the gov ernment of Junk dealers. The Idea i to have all dealers In Junk make regular re ports to the rhlef of police as to purl chases and also give the names of the per sons selling Junk. It has been suggested that the ordinance governing junk dealers bow In fores la Omaha be copied as far as possible. , "If this ! done," said Councilman Mar tin, "the will be lees stealing of scrap Iron from the railroad yards and the po lice will then have control over all Junk dealers doing business In the city. As It Is sow a junk dealer can locate a pile of scrap Iron along a railroad track and then for a few pennies hire email boys to carry the stuff to his place of business. In the case In polios court the other day I am firmly convinced that the Junk dealer was wore to blame than the boys who carried the Iron to the Junk shop. It was the dealer who should have been punished Instead of the boys, and I think an ordinance like the one Intended will be a good thing for the city." It is understood now that all difficulty about the purchase of a site for the library has been settled. The city attorney has contended all along that the library board and not the council should purchase the site. The members of the council have finally admitted this, after having been shown the law on the subject. For this reason , the bids sent to the council will be returned and when the board organizes It will advertise for a site. While the Intention of the city Is to issue bonds for the purchase of a suitable tract of land for the proposed library no ordi nance has yet been drawn. City Attorney Lambert holds that bids should first be re , oetvso. and the site ascured by option. Then the exact amount of the bonds to be voted can be definitely stated In the ordinance and the Issue made according to legal re quirements. New Appalataaaats Repaired. Owing to the defects la the appointment of nine members of the Library board made by Mayor Kelly at the council meeting Tuesday night the appointment will have to be made ever again. At least, this is the opinion given by the city attoraey yes terday, when his attention was called to (be wording of the document. According to ;he official applntment the terms of Dr. rt'hlte, Mrs. Carroll and Mrs. Lane do not ommence until July 1. City Attorney Lam- .Hit Secret ,C womanly health would be esteemed as priceless by thousands ef suffering romea. Each month aeea them moan ing in a darkened room. ' At the best they endure pain every day. At the woist the paia becomes torment. - The secret of womanly health is In keeping the womsnly organism in a per fectly health state. This can be done by the vsc oc Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre scription. It regulate the periods, dries debilitating drains, heals inflammation and ulceration, and cures female weak ness.' It makes weak women strong and sick women well. . Women Buffering from chronic forms of disease,, are invited to consult Dr. Pierce, by letter, fret.

Dr. Pierce's Pleasant, Pellet (V tOi; bert, in looking over the ordinance creating the board, held that possibly ths appoint ments for the two snd three-year terms were valid, but that the terms used In the appointment did not give the three persons earned any authority to act until July 1 of the present year, therefore, he claims that ths board will be inoperative until that time. "The only way out of the difficulty," said the city attorney, "Is for the mayor to make the appointments over again at the next meeting of the council." This will most likely be done. When the attention of the mayor was called to the error in ths wording of the document yesterday he made the request that nothing be said about the matter, as he thought that the error could be corrected without any further publicity. The intention has been to have the members of the board meet and organise at oace and advertise for bids for' a site. Now that this error has been discovered the organisation will have to go over until new appointments are mads. Msyor Kelly said that the announcement making the appointments was drawn In a hurry and that the error would be corrected as soon as possible. Clab laereasee Membership.

Elkhora Isaprovemeats. Little If anything Is being done by the Elkhora road on its Improvements in the northwestern part of the elty at this time. Only a few mea are now employed, and these are mostly watchmen. The piers tor the steel viaduct across Thirty-sixth street are in position and it Is expected that ths work of constructing this bridge will com mence as soon as the material, which has been ordered, arrives. The piers for the double tracks across the boulevard have been repaired and the bridge builders sre now waiting for material to construct the spans. Maate City Gossip, The condition of C. A.
