NOT READY TO EMPLOY TRUANT OFFICER Defeat on Matlrf Rrlnga Out Same Interesting Information sad Decision to Deter Action. The Board of Education at Ha meeting Honoay night settled the qiifetlon of a com mandant for. the High arhool cadet bat talion by rppolntlng Lieutenant. J. Thomp son to the place, which he la to fill until Juno 1 at o salary of fhO a month. Lieu tenant Thompaett u a member Of tb First Nebraaka regiment and saw actual fighting In the Philippines. Ha wont to the front a a sergeant and came back aa a lieutenant. He ia recommended at an excellent drill master. W. F. Johnsoc, chairman of the High school committee, reported that there had been no Unglble resulta from bis corre spondence looking to the employment of a retired firm? officer as commandant. It bad been lmpowalbla for him thus far to secure any Information aa to the qualifica tions of : the available men. He recom mended thai aa Lieutenant Thompsett only wished to retain the position until Juno 1, that the becretary of the board continue tbo correspondence with retired army offi cers with the view to cloalng a deal with one of them by. the opening of tbe fall term. A resolution of thanks to Lieutenant Colonel Arthur Kelkeaney for serving as commandant alnce tbe resignation of Com mandant Tearae was adopted and In further recognition, of the service be was awarded $25 in caeh.. ., '., Matter of a. Trwaat officer. The question of whether or not to em ploy a truant officer . engaged the atten tion of the, board for half an hour. The constitutionality of tbe law being ques tioned. Attorney Herring's opinion was called for. "The law aeetus to leave tbe appointment of a truant officer optional with the board," aald he. "There Is a wide latitude for atonstructlon, aa no special time Is desig nated for b!a service to begin or to end. I think it la an ethical rather than a legal question which confronts tbe board In this matter." Superintendent Pearae aald: "My con viction Is that there are many children out of school In Omaha who ought to be In perhaps between 300 and 600 of them. I have seen large numbers of boys of school age loafing about brickyards, factories, rail road yards and along tbe river bankl. It U Impossible for mo to say what measure of efficacy would attend the appointment of a truant officer, aa there is no precedent ot their work in cities of the metropolitan class. Lincoln is the largest city I know of that employe one. I can say this, now ever, that If the law waa rigidly enforced tbta board would have to establish several special schools tor the accommodation ot tbe truants, for as a general thing this class of pupil ia Incorrigible and so de ficient In manners and hablta as to make It Inexpedient to have him associate w,lth tbe regular pupils of the city schools." Cross Cost sad Met Roaalt. President Barnard said: "Two years ago this same question waa up before the board , and we gave our secretary at that tlmo, J:-M. tnttafl, parmtsston to sea what he could do In the way ot rounding up tru ants. He hired two stenographers and sent out about J.000 letters to parents who were : supposed to have children coming under the compulsory school law. It eoat the board about $200 and, so far at we were able to estimate, the attendance of three truanta waa s enured as a result. I doubt it the law can bo enforced with success la a city of thla alto." - - W. F. Johnson said, he estimated that there were fully 2,000 children ot school age in Omaha who habitually remained away from school. The discussion resulted In a determina tlon to defer action in the matter ot an appointment until the opening of the next school year. Resolutions were Introduced by Member Mcintosh congratulating Member Robert Smith on hie marriage, which was solemn, tied April I. . They closed with the words "We heartllr commend Mr. Smith's action and congratulate him upon his assumption ot the Benedictine relation." H. N. Wood went to the dictionary to see what Bens- - dlctlne meant and found . this definition "A liquor mads at the Benedictine moo estery, Fecamp, Normandy." Mr. Smith, being on his honeymoon, was not present to - say whether ho really did aaauma auch re lationa or not. . W. F. Johnson explained that Benedictine la a cordial, and so Mr, Mcintosh probably meant cordial relations instead of Benedictine relations. A resolution was adopted authorising the expenditure of $75 for shads trees to bo planted In the various school campuses. Cosapllasoatt for Heaalagts. A report was read from tbe Fidelity antl Deposit company, la which City Treasurer Hennlngs Is bonded. Tbe report said In effect that the city treasurer's books and records, covering tbe period between March M. 1900, and October 4, 1901, had been checked over, and continued: "In view of ths largo volume of tbe collections, nearly $5,000,000. and tbe multiplicity of accounts tbo- accuracy la remarkable. Hit records are correct in every particular." A complaint from the wife of A. H Starker, janitor of the Omaha View school, that he bad deserted her and his children and had provided nothing toward the sup port of his family alnce Christmas, save fuel and water, was read and referred to the heat and ventilating committee. The writer complained that the family had been living alnre December 24 on tbe $8 a week made by her 14-year-old son. CREIGHTON DOUBLE WINNER es First nasi flevand Prises la Essllih atereoltrarlate Ksasy Contest. Monday afternoon Crelgbton university was the acene ot general Jubilation, for It bad just been learned that Edward F. Leary, a senior of Crelghton, In competi tion with eighteen selected representa tives ot six different colleges, had won first place and a prlte of $76 in ths English Intercollegiate esssy contest, while Louis A. Lilly of the Junior clasa bad secured second place. Thla Is the third consecu tive time that Crelghton has obtained first place, but it Is tbe first tlmo .that the same Institution has captured both first and second placea. The English Intercollegiate contest la an annual affair In which six of the colleges and unlveraties of the Missouri province compete. Tbey are: St. Louis uaiveralty, St. Mary'a college, Detroit college, Mar quette college, St. Ignatius' college and Crelghton unlveraity. One month before tbe contest a general theme is given the contestants In order that tbey may be conversant with the subject. On tbe day assigned a partlculae theme la given and the competitors are given tlx bourt In which they may write their essays and during thla tlmo they are not allowed to consult notes or previous manuacrlpta. The theme thla year la which Mr. Leary excelled was "The Attitude of. American Catbollo Laymen In Regard to Higher Education." Amusements. At the Boyd. Elgnt of the busiest actor persons seen In Omaha In many days had their exits and their entrances at the Boyd Monday night. They were playing "At Valley Forge," piece not built on a book, but rather a compendium of several. Including a "Child's History of the Revolution." It beglna be fore the war broke out, baa Its climax at Trenton on that never-to-be-forgotten Christmas morning, and Ita denouement after that dreadful winter where Howe occupied Philadelphia and Washington waa at Valley Forge. Captain Wilton Fairfax, the hero, hat tuch favorites aa Jack Brereton, Richard Carvel, Hugh Wynne, Douw Mauvereaen and Nathan Hale beaten by blocks. For each of them had only some one thing, tuch as love ot country, love of a girl, hatred ot a rival or something like that to spur him on, while Fairfax Is goaded to his deeds of craft, valor, sacrifice and heroism by all theae several Incentives ind one or two others to boot. His object Is first to put the British army Into auch condition that Washington can lick it (and he must have ultimately suceeded, for history tells us Washington did win); second, to marry the heroine. Miss Virginia Preston (prob ably 4 forebear ot the Preetons of Talla dega, Ala.), who la an uncommonly pretty girl It she was correctly represented last night; and, finally, to get even with one Major Htnry Carleton, a rlpsnorting, fire- eating (verbally) tory officer. Major Carle- ton's objects are Just the reverse of Cap tain Fairfax's,, with the exception of the one concerning Mlaa Preston. With two such evenly matched . soldiers for what Carleton lacked in stature he made up In rank and lung power each striving against the other, there were things doing all the time, and there'a no telling what wouldn't have happened if Miss Preston had ever (xerolsed her womanly prerogative. But abe didn't. On tbs contrary ahe was staunch na at eel and was there with the goods at least twice juat In tlmo to aave the cap tain's life, and, of course, he won her In tbe end. Some sorrow would be felt for tbo major If he hadn't been such an awk ward liar. Mist E. Clare Gale, who la Mtsa Preston in the play, baa tbo advantage of some tal ent aa aa actress coupled with charms of person sufficient to cause one to overlook manifest histrionic deficiencies. Messrs. B, A. Lamar and William Monroe, as tbe cap tain and the major, work with a vim and fairly well support Mlas Gale's efforts. The other five people In the cast do the best they can.

A report waa made on the so-called "hot- air" ordinance, which granta tbe privilege of laying heating plpea through the atreets and alleys to unknown parties. This re port waa adopted aa it has been fostered by Johnston and the ordinance waa passed and Immediately algned by Mayor Kelly. In order to comply with the charter, Adklna moved that tbe clerk be Instructed to advertise for bids from tbe banks on dally treasury balancea. At the conclusion of some little routine business the mayor appointed a committee of three, compoaed of Johnston, Miller -and Martin, to canvass the vote caat at tbe re cent election. Johnston moved that all In terested parties be permitted Inside the ratling to witness the count of the tally books and this was agreed to. The result was that the council chamber was soon crowded to lit utmost capacity and It waa with difficulty that the board managed to work. As It was It required nearly, if not quite, three hours to complete the count. The count showed no change for mayor, treasurer, clerk, city attorney and council- men from the First and Second wards from that given the day after election in The Bee. In the Third ward there was a difference In the books of six votes on the ballot cast for Barney Luckey. One poll book ahowed Luckey received 1,847 votes, while the other tallied 1.853. If the lower count was taken Mlko Smith, republican, would win by two votes. In the Fourth ward the vote between Mclntlre. republican, and O'Connor, dem ocrat, was declared a tie. Tbey will draw strawa today for the place. No material change waa made In the count In the Fifth and Sixth wards. The council disputed the question ot is suing certificates of election to the dis puted members for a long time. It was finally agreed that certificates should be issued to the officials where there was no dispute and let the courts settle the con test later on. Later Mike Smith waa sworn In as councilman from tbe Third ward. Tbe school board result proved to be as published In the papers, Laverty, Mor rill and Bock being elected.

Thla Is the property known as the Glasgow tract, which waa offered to the government for a poatofflce alte some years ago. The property purchased has a frontage on M street of eighty feet and runs back on Twenty-third for ninety feet. When the board was called to order the Glasgow site was quoted at $3,900 and al though aeventeen bids were to be consid ered a committee was sent out to confer with tbe Glasgow estate people and then came an offer to aell the property for $3,600.

"When tbe Temple association leased the building," said the officer of that organiza tion, "It was with the understanding that heat was to be furnished by the landlord. We understood that arrangements were made whereby Mr. Fredrlckaon waa to supply the heat at $10 per week and this amount was to bo deducted from the monthly rental and paid to the tenant on the lower floor. Thla month we received a statement from Mr. Fredrlckson showing that our bill tor heat was $62, $2 a day, for the month of March. We refused to pay this, at Mr. Kennard would allow us but $10 per week. Mr. Fredrlckson has threatened to turn the heat off and he may do it, but we are backod by Mr. Kennard the fight, and if we have to appeal to the courts it will cost the association nothing."

WASHINGTON April I. The agitation In favor of, changing the data of Inauguration of the president from the month of March to the latter part ot April received an lm- petua Monday at ths meeting of the national committee having the matter In hand. The change bad been advocated, owing to the Inclemency of tbe weather of early March. The meeting waa presided over by Dis trict Commissioner Henry B. F. MacFar- land. Mr. MacFarland gave a brief his torical review of the movement for a change In the date, emphasizing the una nimity of aentiment In regard to It and Ita national character. He declared that the aenats of the United States had passed Mr. Hoar'a resolution providing for the last Thursday In April as tbe inaugural. It was agreed that the chairman should ap point an executive committee. It was re solved as the sense ot the committee that the date ot the inauguration day should be changed from the 4th ot March to tbe last Thursday in April, but no particular bill or resolution should be advocated. Ths proposition to fix the 30th day ot April was considered, but received no sup port, because It was felt that It was better to name a day ot the week rather than a day of the month a day that would come alwaya tn the middle of the week, so at to avoid Sunday. The committee was unani mously In favor of tbe laat Thursday In April. DOUBT OVER THE CUBAN BILL TJaeertalaty of Meaaare's Pass ace la Increased by Cancna Called " by Democrats. WASHINGTON, April 7.
