OMAHA. June To the Public: Tho
Young Women'! Christian association ap
peals to the citizens of Omaha to provide
the meant to procure suitable property
for Its work. The association was organ
ized nine years ago for the social, physical,
mental and spiritual welfare, of young
women of our city. From a good beginning,
located In comfortable central rooms, it
has grown to a membership of 600 to
1,000, occupying one floor In the Paxtoo
block. This Is divided by temporary par
titions, giving an office, two rest rooms,
lunch room, kitchen and gymnasium. Be
tween 400 and 600 women and girls visit
the rooms dally. More than 400 every noon
vail themselves of the opportunity of se
curing a ell-cookcd meul at a moderate
price and rtatlng In the pallors, supplied
with couches, easy chairs, papers, maga
lines and books. Th number would be
larger If they could be accommodated. The
gymnasium, becauso of the low celling and
broken floor space, but poorly accommo
dates the 200 members. During the evening,
when classes arc held in the gymnasium,
It is impossible to have more than two
other classes, so that tbo educational work
Is very much limited.
The present place is outgrown. For lunch
purposes twice the floor space Is needed,
and as much for gymnasium, with twice the
height of ceiling. There should be three
to five private clasa rooms for educatloaal
purpoees, with larger parlors and two
office rooms.
Because of the varied needs, requiring
Irregular architecture. It Is difficult to
adapt an ordinary building to the needs of
the work. For the aame reason It has
been Impossible to rent a building suitably
constructed.
What Is Mow eded.
Because of .these two conditions, It be
comes necessary to come to the public and
ask tor a home for this Important work.
It Is necessary to have offices, parlors,
class rooms, lunch rooms, kitchen, gymna
sium, bath rooms, and It la desirable to
have a email auditorium, a natatorium and
bowling alley. The location must be cen
tral to accommodate the patron of the
lunch, as that Is a source of Income. It
ought to be within the boundary of Sev
enteenth and Fourteenth, Dodge and Har
ney streets. A corner lot would be Ideal,
affording the best light and ventilation. An
Inside lot not less than forty-four feet wide
could be used.
To supply these needs In a modest way
It has been estimated that the minimum
um of 150,000 will be required. This esti
mate Is mode for an Inside lot and pro
vision for present necessities. The asso
ciation hat no debts, la opposed to contract
ing any, and will not undertake this enter
prise until two-thirds of the amount re
quired la pledged.
The question as to how the money eball
be raised baa been variously answered.
One large-hearted friend proposed "that
twelve to twenty business men of the clt7
meet and while at lunch settle the matter
by contributing the amount needed." That
would be a great relief; It would leave the
women free to give tbelr strength to the
construction of the building at once and
would enable the association to celebrate
ita tenth anniversary at home.
Another suggested "that tome liberal man
or woman give halt the required amount
as a memorial to the departed or the
living." That would give an Inspiration
to quickly secure the balance.
Another, "that five persons be found,
each giving 15,000."
The suggestions prefaced with the words, ,
"I will give," In the amount above men
. tloned, or In good round sums above $1,00,
will be most gratefully received.
What the Women Mar Do.
Are there not a number of good women
of the city who will give In a $500 class, a
class numbering ten to twenty T
A class of $100 gifts numbering fifty per
on would add well.
Fifty more giving $50, and 100 giving
$25 each would equal It. All classes are
open. ; , . ' ;
A tew years past the women were asked
to defer their building enterprise and help
with the exposition, which they cheerfully
did. . They responded to the requests to
help with the Auditorium; they have been
loyel to every publto interest.
This loyalty will be recognised in a prac
tical way by a hearty, generous response
to this appear for a building worthy the
city of Omaha, creditable In comparison
with similar building In other cities, and
worthy the association, which stand for
constructive, formatory work, for the
crowning glory of our advanced civilization,
a well-rounded, perfect young womanhood.

HEAP TRIES , OUT LAW POINTS
His Lawyer Endenvors In Every- Way
to Avoid Trial by
Jury.
William Heap, Jr.. charged with embex
slement, la trying out the law to a finlah
before he submits to a trial by, jury. Yes
terday his attorney argued a plea In
abatement before Judge Baxter, asserting
that the preliminary bearing before Justice
Altstadt, who bound the defendant over to
the district court, was illegal and without
effect. Tbe court overruled the plea and
then the lawyer took another tack by de
murring to the complaint. He argued that
none of the separate counts In the com
plaint constituted a sufficient cause for ac-'
tlon by tha sute, but the Judge could not
be brought around to his view of the thing
and refused to nullify the complaint.
Then the resourceful lawyer put in an
other plea In abatement.' In this last
plea bo denies that the district court for
Douglas county- has Jurisdiction, for ths
reason that ths statement upon which
Heap is ssld to have secured tbe money
was written -In Wyoming and mailed in
Idaho and ths money was received In Utah.
This plea will be tried by a jury next
Thursdsy morning.
