AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA
Oouicil Will Mike Land Trad with the
Railroad Companies.
DEAL SAID TO BE IN CITY'S INTEREST
Part of Five Street Vacated and a
Strip of Land Accepted In pm
penaatlon from the Hall
road.
About the only Important feature of
Monday night's council meeting was the
report of the committee on streets and al
leys In relation to the petition of the
Omaha North riatte Railroad company
and the South Ouinha Lnnd company. These
companies asked for the vacation of cer
tain streets and alleys and offered in pay
ment a ccrtala strip along tloyd street.
The cohimlttee, composed of Councllmen
Welsh, Adklns and Queenan, reported In
favor of vacating the.!, portion of Thirty-
sixth street between the north line of L
street and the north line of I street, also
those portions of I, J and K streets be
tween Thirty-sixth street and Boyd street.
This committee asserts that the city will
lose nothing by the vacation of the prop
erty desired by the railroad, while on the
other bnnd in compensation It will acquire
a graded street on the west side of Boyd
street, from L street north to I street. The
committee recommended that upon a fair
valuation of the adjacent property for the
streets vacated, after deducting the thirty
feet to be donated on Boyd street that the
petition be granted. This report was
adopted by all members voting In the af
firmative. In connection with this report
Mayor Koutsky sppolnted F. J. Persons,
J. H. Kopeitx and J. B. Watkins as ap
praisers. With this report adopted by the council
It Is thought that there will be no further
difficulty in the railroads making Improve
ments In the western part of the city
Contrary to expectations nothing was said
cr done about the emergency hospital. It
Is understood that the mayor and city en
gineer have this case In charge and a re
port will most likely be made at the next
meeting of the council, to be held on next
Monday night.
The complaint of L. C. Gibson against
the steward at the emergency hospital was
referred to the buildings and grounds com
mittee without comment.
When it came to the reading of the propo
sition of the Wolf & Murnan company for
land to be dedicated for a packing house,
the members of the council sml'.ed and tho
mayor referred the communication to the
street and alley committee.
Carrie Homan wants to settle her claim
against the city for $r.O, but the city does
not appear willing to settle without an
Investigation and the offer made was re
ferred to the finance- committee and tho
elty attorney.
(haagr Arithmetic.
At the Board of Education meeting last
night a change In arithmetics was made.
The book adopted Is already In use In the
schools here, but about 1,200 new books
will be needed. These new books will cost
not to exceed $400. Old books of the same
Issue will be takon up In exchange. Su
perintendent McLean said that he Is satis
fied with the change, as he considers the
book one of the best on sale at the present
time.
Three teachers were placed on the per
manent list after a vote or two had been
taken. Those now on the list are: Miss
Thulln, Miss O'Nell and Miss Yost. Miss
Eunice Ensor was placed on the assigned
list.
Miss Montgomery will doubtless be grati
fied to know that her salary waa raised
from $55 to $65 a month and that she will
hereafter teach in the eighth grade class.
Mra. J. ft. Jobnnon Head.
Mrs. J. B. Johnson died at her home.
Twenty-fifth and L streets, South Omaha,

wife of J. U. Johnson, a well known brick
layer, and was 82 years of age at the time
of her death. Kuneral services will be
held at the home of N. Johnson. Twenty
fourth and K streets, this forenoon, and
the remains will be forwarded to Wcodblne,
Ja (or interment. Mr. Johnson and his
wife were married aixty-three yeara ago
and lived at Woodbine for fifty-six yeara.
It la on account of the old associations at
the Iowa home tbat. the remains of Mrs.
Johnson will be taken there for Interment.
Makes Rsnlaeai Doll.
Some of the South Omaha business men
complain that business Is dull Just now
and they give as a reason the high price of
coal. It la stated that families who form
erly spent plenty of money in purchasing
clothing and grocerlea are now kept- poor
by the necessity of buying coal at ad
vanced prices. The South Omaha dealers
say there is no trust, and that tbey are
willing and anxious to sell coal at the
lowest market price as soon as coal Is
shipped in here. Some ot the packers are
now paying mine-run prices for alack coal
and even at the money offered the coal ia
hard to get. The rise in temperature la
helping out the poor here as well aa own
ers of big buildings who are compelled to
hustle daily for coal. There la still a lack
of wood and thla, It is atatcd by merchants.
Is another reason for the alack trade Just
now.
Taa Titles Sale,
In December Omaha speculators took up
$1,200 In South Omaha property on tax
aales. Yesterday a report waa received at
the office of the city treasurer giving tbe
amount secured by trust companies for
fourteen days In the present month. Dur
ing this month thirty lots have been sold
tor taxea. These tax titles have been
bought by outalders who presumably In
tend to foreclose aa soon a. the law will
permit.
Aa error is being made by a good many
people In South Omsha owing to the pro
vision regarding the payment of taxes.
Coder the preaent law city taxes become
delinquent nn January I and on June 1. Two
payments are permitted. Some of the prop
erty owners think tbat when they hsvo
paid the taxea up to January 1 they have
fulfilled their obligation to the city. Buy
ers of delinquent tax titlee are watching
for just such cases and will purchase the
property when offered for sale. After the
purchase haa been made by those engaged
In the business It takes 20 por cent Interest
and then some to secure another title.
Treasurer Howe calls the stten'ton of the
small home owners to this provision of the
law.

WOMAN IN CLUa AND CHARITY
Those colored women who belong to a
club and study domestic science In the
books. Instead of the back kitchen, are In
vited to step over the Color line the even
ing of January 29 and sit with the "quality"
at the First Congregations! church, while
Prof. Perky, president of Oread institute,
Worcester, Mass., further elucidates the
problems of the housefcold and the science
of making both ends most neatly meet
therein.
Puch Is the effoct of a resolution adopted
without dissent by tho Woman's club at Its
regular meeting yesterday afternoon. The
action was the result of accident more than
careful planning. Mrs. Edward Johnson,
who, as corresponding sccrelsry, had been
Instructed by the dub to Invite a numbeiif
bonrds and societies to attend Ihe lecture,
reported the acceptances of several, and
then stated she hd been able to find no
"domestic science" department In the Dun
dee Woman's club and the South Omaha
Womsn's club, and hence didn't know who
waa to have the invitations she had been
Instructed to send such departments., Mrs.
McDonald moved as remedial expedient
that the entire Membership of the Dundee
and South Omaha clubs be invited. Mrs.
Burch of South Omaha arose to ask which
South Omaha club waa meant. She stated
that women's clubs In Bouth Omaha are
markedly numerous, but added for the
benefit of any who might wish to know
that the one of which she is a member haa
been burning a lot of midnight oil over this
same problem of domestic science, and Is
right up with the times.
Mrs. MacMurphy moved as amendment
that the secretary bs instructed to ask all
the women's clubs of Omsha, South Omaha
nnd Council Bluffs. President Cole re
minded Mrs. MacMurphy that that meant
much hunting by the secretary for ad
dresses and asked if the motion could not
be made a trifle less sweeping. Mrs. Mac
Murphy stood firm, nnswerlng to the effect
that It shouldn't be as difficult for tho
secretary with her abundant time to get the
addresses as for she. the unprepared
speaker, to call the clubs by name on the
instant
Mra. I. R. Andrews called the attention of
the club to the fact that colored women of
Omaha have a club and remarked that It
"would be very unkind not to Invite them."
No tone t-lse seemed disposed to argue the
point either way with Mrs. Andrews, and
the president prepared to put the motion,
when Mrs. MacMurphy Injected into h"r
amendment the clause, "all clubs making a
particular study of household economics."
In this form It carried. Mrs. Andrews
states that ihe colored women's club makes
a particular study of household ecopomlcs
and hence Its members are among those
especially Invited to the coming lecture,
along with the Boord of Education, the
Omaha-Douglas County Medical society, tho
Young Men's Christian association and
others.
After the discussion had closed, the vole
been taken and the result announced, one
member arose to ask If the resolution con
templatd Invitation to all women'B clubs
In the three cities. The chair explained
that It meant only those which give espe
cial study to domestic science.
By an uncontested' vote the club pledged
itself to undertake to brinr Mrs. William
Spencer Crosby from Chicago somo time
soon to give two Wagner lecturo recitals.
Mrs. J. H. Mcintosh of tho music depart
ment of the club, stated that Mrs. Cresby
has given her lecture .ecltals before
eminent clubs of London, Paris and New
York, aa well as smaller places, and al
ways with greatest satisfaction to those
who engaged her; also that the club has
been promised the support of Mrs, Kountze,
Mrs. Cudaby and Mrs. Krug of the Tuesday
Musicals and of many others prominent in
music circles. The club voted, however,
not to undertako the enterprise unless
there could be secured teats at $1 for two
recitals and 75 cents for one, 230 subscrip
tions, as Mrs. Crosby tsks $150 for two ap
pearances and all railroad expenses. Tho
president was empowered to appoint the
neceseary committee of arrangements.
On motion, the house and home com
mittee was instructed to formulate plans
for the club's tenth birthday party April
24, and submit such plans at the meeting
two weeks hence. The plan is to make,
the celebration momentous.
Though the board of directors had recom
mended tbat it be not acted upon for an
other two weeks, the matter of endorsing
the campaigning for the enactment of a
more stringent pure food law was precipi
tated yeaterday by Mrs. MacMutphy and
presented as a motion by Mrs. Draper
Smith. It carried. Let the legislators of
Nebraska now stand forewarned.
Mrs. W. H. Hanchett Is to give her lec
ture, "Myths and Legends or tbe Ages
Past," for tbe ethics department of the
club Tuesday of next week at 4 o'clock, at

Tbe education committee gave np its time
to Mr. Will Parker, truant officer, who
read some verses from a newspaper con
cerning the good of pouring oils and wines
into other people's wouude and of the im
propriety of passing by on the other sldo
of the general public. He said also that
he had been the only man in attendance at
a cooking school In the Omaha High school
In 1887, and tbat be considered the school
a good thing, because it had enabled him
some years later to sing, "Way Down Upon
the Suwannee River" and "Nearer, My Ood,
to thee," all the way to a pest house for
the benefit of two young women at a sum
mer school who had contracted smallpox
and had to be taken to the Imruuned spot.
For what ha has done ss truant offlcer, he
invited the women to notice the morning
newspaper digests of his report to the
Board of Education.

Fir. and Police Board Name. It? List After
Much Deliberation.
EX-CHIEF SI6WART AMONG THE NUMBER
Several Name Well Known In Ion.
nectlon with History of Iterent
Troubles Appear In the
Mat.
After nearly four hours of deliberation,
during which time nearly fifty applicants
filed into the inner chamber of the Fire
and Poltoe board's rooms, the members of
that body succeeded In making fifteen
choices of men whom they think suffi
ciently qualified to don the blue and carry
a club on Omaha's police force. Of the new
appulnteea nine are ex-members of the
force and have served Indeterminate terms
upon different beats. Annng the list of
ex-policemen who were reinstated were
several who were recently dismissed from
the force at tho time the retrenchment
committee begun i:s work. In the list are
several well-known names.
The appointments are: Thomas F. Uoyle,
ex-pollccman: Fred C. Moore, ex-policeman;
M. F. Hotchklss. ex-policemnn; Ste
phen Maloney, J. II. Citelck. ex-policeman;
William Murphy, A. Pnttullo. L. F. Hwyer,
ex-policeman; Joniah Thomas, ex-pollee-man;
Wflllam HHlterinnn, who has been
on special patrol duty In Hanscom park;
L. A. Smith. A. J. Samuelsnn, A. T. Sir.
wart, ex-policeman; Oeorgo W. Barnes, ex.
policeman; P. H. Dillon, ex-pollcemnn.
It Is understood that five more appolntora
may bo selected and the appropriations. ti
the police department for Ihe year not be
exceeded. The new patiolmen will be given
a physical examination this afternoon, and
if found qualified to begin their probation
ary service, will be given beats nt once.
One of the significant acta by the board
was the adoption of the following resolu
tion: Resolved, That all appointees to the po
lice force, now and hereafter to be made,
shall be on probation fur n period of nix
months with pay at the rate of $iio per
month during such probation . period, and
subject to the contlrmatlon of the bourd at
the end of said period.
Mew llond Demanded.
The board also decided that hereafter a
schedule bond would be adopted instead of
compelling the officers to give the board a
personal or individual bond during tbe time
they are serving the city. The cause for
the change Is aald to have been due to tbe
largo number of Individual bonds which
now have not the proper sureties, owing
to the decease of many of those persons
who have been upon the bonds of offlcera
In the service for any length of time. A
blanket-schedule bond w ill , therefore be
adopted as a proper remedy for tbe existing
conditions.
The last of the liquor licenses that ot
L. J. Kramer, who desired to do buHiuss
at 1419 Juckson street -was granted. Tho
total number of licenves granted this yenr
is 311, two in excess of Inst year, though
two more are In sight. ,
Members of tho Waiters' club, whose :
club rooms are located at the corner of i
Fourteenth ami Hodge streets, appeared
before the board and asked that the ac
tion '. aken In prohibiting the tale of liquor
In the club rfionui to members only be re.
scinded. As the board understood gamblliiK
had been carried on there, and that there
might be occasion for dodKlng the liquor
laws, that having been the cause of the
remonstrance against the club, action wa
deferred until the bylaws can be fully In
vestlgated. Kill Jailer ami Kirspe,

It has been a household remedy for the

Win. IL Broader, of Chrystie Street,
New York City, writes: " I hare had a
cough evsr since my childhood. It was So
bad that blood would spurt from my nose,
which would leave me weak, so that I was
often compelled to leave my work, I
started to take Dr. Bull'. Cough Ryrup,
and before the third bottle was finished
my cough waa entirely gone,"
