4l ( THE OMAHA DAILY 11EE: WEDNESDAY, AP1UL 30, 1!)02. AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA Water Wanted by lUsiclenU of Sontheut Section of City. NO MONEY TO PAY FOR HYDRANTS Extension of Mala of Likely OwU to Condition of Eirhrqntr and Orders Already Issaed hjr Ciiril. Quita number of citizens who live In th vicinity of Thirteenth and Msdlson atreets appeared before some of the city authorities Isat night and made an appeal for water. They asserted that at the pres ent time the citterns are nearly dry and that water Is being hauled from the cen tral portion cf Albright at a coat of 25 cents a barrel. What these petitioners want Is one or two Are hydrants so located thst about a rore of families who have bought property In that section of the city can hare city wster and some Are protection. The fart was made plain to the visitors that there was no money In the water fund at the present time, and that there was no chance of any until' the 1902 levy. It was suggested, however, thst the people In the vlrlnlty mentioned might chip In and lay a two-Inch pipe and get water through a meter from the nearest hydrant. This would save hsullng It and be mors economical la the end. As mat ter stand "sow Albright has about all the Are hydrants Its population entitles It ta, ao that It Is hardly probable that the ex tension of the mains desired can be made this year. Already the water company has orders for tbout two dozen hydrants, which It has been unable to place on account of the lack of pipe. These hydrants, which were ordered last year, will naturally come first and It Is presumed that the entire time of the local force employed by the water company will be taken up this sum mer In locating these. When the next levy Is made the chance are that more money will be appropriated for water, a the city Is growing rapidly and tbo people are demanding accommodations In the mat ter of city water. Are hydrants, etc. Cnancll Meets Wednesday Slant. , Although the city council was supposed to meet Monday night the newly-elected members fell Into the rut of the old council and failed of a quorum just at the critical time. There was a big crowd present to watch the proceedings, but they were all disappointed. Those of the cuuucll who did Anally get together met In the clerk's office and after a hurried roll call ad journed until Wednesday night. It is understood that the democratic majority, la now negotiating with Mayor Koutaky In the matter of appointments. Mayor Koutsky still maintains that he haa the right to make appointments and he does not consider that the democratic majority hat any hand In his work, as it hss all It can do to look after Its own affairs. The charter Is so framed that the msyor may appoint from month to month In cases where the Council refuses to conArm, and the appointee can 'proceed with his duties and drsw his salary. So really the mayor has the council where It cannot get back very hard, even If he wanted to. School Hoard Meeting. A short session of the Board of Educa tion was held Mondsy night, but very little business was transacted. In accordance with the wishes of the deputy state labor commissioner the board let a contract to Ous Andreen of Omaha for the placing of an Iron Are escape on the Central school build ing. Thli" escape will be a series of steps with suitable landlpgs at wtndowa and will reach nearly to the ground. The cost of this work will be 1525. There was some little talk about arrangements for the com ing commencement exercises, but the de tails were left to a committee. Contracts Signed. Contracts were signed yesterdsy for the grsdlng of several streets In the eastern part of the city. H street Is to be graJed from Sixteenth to Twentieth street, whllo O street Is to be worked and graded from Eighteenth to Twentieth street. Seven teenth, Eighteenth1 and Nineteenth streets will be grsded from O to H street. The opening of Twentieth street through the park Is now assured, as arrangements were made yesterday whereby the roadway will be opened during the progress of this other work. In all, about 20,000 cubic yards of dirt will be moved. Dan Hannon has the contract and will commence work within a few days. To Opea Syndicate Park. It It understood that the South Omaha Land company haa expressed Itself as will ing to open Syndicate park to the public, providing the city prevents tramps and disreputable characters from Infesting the grounds. Unlet the city takes the pre caution to place a policeman on the grounds at night the land compsny will be com pelled to fence the new Twentieth street rosd. The opening of the park will be something long desired by residents of thlt city. Report Ready Today. Today James V. Chlzek will submit to the mayor and council bla report of tba condition of the books of the city treasury up to date. Thla work of checking tue books occurs every year and costs the city about $200. It Is necessary, however, as ths bond companies require It. The report shows thst every rent paid Into the treas urer's office during the tenc of Mr. Koutsky hit been accounted for and turned over to Mr. Howe, hit tuccessor. Brian Kinds Money.

BRIDGE WORK IN PROSPECT Commissioners Agree tnat Three rrearnt Strortarea Most Be Replaced. The county commissioner . ar agreed, Harte of the bridge committee states, that at least three of the county's smaller bridges must be replaced at once. One will be an eighty-foot span over a creek two and one-half miles south of Elkhorn and will conTsbout S350. Another and slmllsr one will have to be ballt over the Little Hawhlde, tbtee miles north of Valley. A larger one, to cost S00, Is found necessary to replace the old one over the Little Elk- horn a mile northeast of. Waterloo. In ad dition to an eighty-foot span this bridge will require about 100 feet of new trestle work. The Platte river bridge project Is tem porarily at a standstill, although Commis sioner Harte was at Valley Mondsy In con ference with the Commercial club of that place. As to the smaller one over the Elk horn at a point one mile north of the south line of the county, it Is Raid that before the bridge itself can be built It will be neces sary to arrange for opening a road through for eighty rods each side of the river.

NEW BOOKS AND MAGAZINES New Novel by Mark Twain, the Prince of American Humor iits. AMUSING EXPERIENCE WITH A CABLEGRAM Ian MaeLaren startles the Mtnulng Editor of a Religions Paper Lead. laaT Slaaaslae tor May Fall of Uood Things. Mark Twain, the prince of American humorists, has completed a new book en titled "A Double-Barreled Detective Story," which has just been published by Har pers. It Is a ttory In which the author enters upon a field that Is entirely new. When once It Is started one continues ltt perausl with Interest, wondering what will happen next. The book Is divided Into two parts, th first part bearing the unique Inscription, "We ought never to do wrong when people are looking." Jacob Fuller, "a handsome young man of slender means" marries a rich young girl, the marriage being bitterly opposed by the girl's father. Jscob Fuller hears of the father's criti cisms, but marries the girl and utct every means known by him to rsuse her suffering and thereby break the father's heart. As a last resort he tie her to a tree, turns the bloodhounds loose on her until her clothes are torn from her, then calls them off and disappears from ths community. Th wife' one cry of vengeance Is thst her child may be a boy, which Is granted. When the boy la 5 yesrt old she discovers as a birthmark he haa the gift of the blood hound In scenting. The mother -ducatcs him and when he becomes a young man tells him her history and forms plans for him to "persistently and relentlessly" drive him from place to place by posting placards offering rewards for him, telling his crime, but leaving out the name. Bhe has found a miner by his name In Colorado and the boy stsrts on his errand, but on driving Fuller from the city discovers he Is a cousin. The remainder of the story tells of the boy'e experience! in -locating the cousin to tell him the mistake. Among his experiences It the unravelling of a mys tery by his gift, coming out victorious over th renowned Sherlock Holmes. The managing editor of a religious weekly had an amusing experience with a cablegram not long ago. He had been cor responding with Dr. John Watson ("Ian MaeLaren") of Liverpool about a story that the famous Scotch author was to write for them. After everything had, as the editor thought, been satisfactorily arranged a cablegram from Liverpool suddenly ar rived at the editor's desk. It read: "An Irrelevant objection. Watson." Dumb founded, the editor racked his brains to recall what he had now done to antagonise genial Dr. Watson. For the life of him he couldn't recall having objected to any suggestion the author had made. About to call for a copy of his latest letter to Liverpool, It suddenly dawned on him. His lntt letter to the historian of Drumtochty had asked what the title of the new story would be, with the request that It be ca bled If necessary. And by cable the title had comer Later Dr. Watson altered the title slightly to "No Relevant. Objection." The ttory Itself Is one of singular beauty and la up to the highest standard of that msster hand. The paper for which It was written Is the Sunday School Times, where It appears this month. "Comments of a Countess" Is a volume of light and amusing satirical sketches of so ciety foibles. The sketches In their original form appeared In the Outlook. Some of the comments are on "Theaters," "The Sea son," "Music," "Dress," "Rest Cures," "Cricket," "Cawea." "House Parties and the Horse 8how," "The Country" and "Tho Degeneration of Man." The book ts not written by a "looker-on," but by one ac tually "playing the game" herself. She commences the book with "It Is as neces sary for a peeress to write nowadays as It la for an American millionaire to lose a fortune. Nobody knows how ho made It Just as nobody knows what a peeress will do next, though many of us can guess, heaven bsvlng thoughtfully provided a mi nority with the fault known as Imagina tion." The sketches are Indeed humorous. The preface (written by Carlton, the countess' husband). Instead of being at the beginning of the book, as usual, is the last chapter, "In accordance with all the cus toms and views prevalent In modern so ciety." It seems to have been written be cause his wife Insisted on It. He thinks, however, if any one gets as far as that chapter well pleased "with what Dolly has written that even his contribution will be tolerated." His preface constitutes good words for his wife "a written character of the author." It I published by John Lane. "Darky Ways In Dixie," by Margaret A. Richard, Is the title of a book of poems written In dialect, picturing the typical outhern negro as he Is In the land of bis abode. His fsnsticlsm In religion, his proneness to ba "light-fingered" when op portunity offers (especially when the pro verbially loved watermelon and chicken are concerned); his various and amusing su perstitions and other things characteristic of him are written of In a humorous vein. On th other hand, the author touches minor chords In singing of the lore the faithful old servant bears for "Mlssue" and "Marsa;" of the prisoner serving a long sentence on the chain gang for some minor offense; of the old and afflicted waiting patiently for the call to heaven, where gladness shall be theirs In the sweet "by-en-by." The book Is Illustrated with pho tographs from life and la well adapted to fulfilling the purpote for which It wat de tlgned, that of being offered as a aouvenlr of the south to all Interested in the "cul lud rttre." and especially to w!nter tour Ittt from the north. Published by the Ab bey Prees. "The Misdemeanors of Nancy." by Eleanor Hoyt. Is a new book published by Doubledsy, Psge Co. It would bo dlfll cult to find a more charmingly frivolous young woman thsn this Irresistible creation of Mlas Hoyt's. She is simply adorable, and one wonders not at all at the long pro reasion of unfortunates upon whom the smlls of her mischievous tend. It must be confessed, flirtatious) eyes, It must midsummer madness. Her conquest over th hearts of foreigners and all clssier of people over the states, is not only In tensely Interesting, but when told by her self, amusing. No reader can fall to close the book without a mingled feeling of re gret at leaving the heroine and of envy for "Th Man Who Came Often." A double frontispiece In color by Msx Held Psrrlsh, showing desert and reclaimed land In Ariiona aid by aid, accantuatet ths beginning In th Msy Century of ths promised series on "Ths Great South west" by Ray Stannsrd Baker, the oilier Illustrations of which ar also from draw ings by Mr. Psrrlsh.

In his article on "Man aa a Machine." In the May Everybody's, Dr. H. W. Wiley, chief of the bureau of chemistry, Vnlted States Department of Agriculture, tells us that man Is the most perfect furnace ever devised, and every particle of heat gen erated by the oxidation of his food has been accounted for on strictly mechanical principles. He thinks that in the future the mechanics of thought and nerve action will be subjected to measurement, and we shall be able to compute the exact calorics of a poleralo or a poem. Senator Lodge of Massachusetts made an Interesting Journey to Russia last year and in the May Scribner's he glvea his Impres sions of that great country which is so hard for us to understsnd. Senator Lodge Is not optimistic about the economic future of Russia, taking a somewhat different view from that recently expressed In Scribner's by Mr. Vanderllp and Mr. Norman. He sums it up by saying that the "truth It that the Russians ar a primitive people and at the same time an old people. A primitive people la economically wasteful, and the Russian system it wsstetul and Inefficient to the last degree-" President Roosevelt has accepted the gracious offer of Alfred Austin, poet lau reate, to dedicate to him the American edition of his new volume of verse, "A Tale of True Love and Other Poems," which the Harpero published on April 18. The dedi cation reads aa follows: "To one even more distinguished for his personal quali ties than fcr his 'political position, lofty though it be, President Roosevelt, I in scribe this volume with deep admiration and respect." The poems cover a vsrlety of subjects, current and classic. They sre decidedly optimistic in tone. The opening lines are, addressed to Robert Louis Steven ton.
