SCHOOL BOARD CHANGES MIND
Bescindi Its Action on South Twenty
Fourth Street Grada.
FAVORS NEW SCHOOL ON VINTON SITE
Adopta Resolution Settlac lp Its
Seed and Promising to
Bnlld One In Wear
Kntnre.
Action taken by the Board of Education
a vteelt ago In refusing to alga the petition
for a change of grade on Twenty-fourth
at net from Leavenworth to Mason, was
rescinded last night and the matter placed
In the hands of the Judiciary committee for
a report on the legal questions involved.
This waa done upon the motion of Mem
bers Mcintosh and Funkhouser, and after
Chairman Harmann of the Southwestern
Improvement club committee and W. W.
Bingham had addressed the board.-'
Mr. Harmann aald that the proposed
change In grade had bee)n erroneously
stated, and that It would not damage the
Mason street school property at all; that
the grade meant a car line to South Omaha
via South Twenty-fourth street, and great
onvenlenco to thousands of persons. It
iomained with the school board to help out
. the citizens by helping them get the grade
and thereby the street railway, he asserted.
Mr. Mcintosh Bpoke la a similar strain
and Mr. Bingham remarked that the street
railway would be welcomttd not only by
adjacent property owners, but by many
others as well. Member Funkhouser said
legal questions are concerned In the pro
posed signature, and that It had been
stated that it the board signs the petition
It will waive all claims to damages,
k Seven objecting property owners sub
Jmittod a counter argument to the Improv
ers, declaring that the proposed change In
grade. would place the school property Ave
feet below the street, U of no public neces
sity and will render real estate In the vi
cinity of Twenty-fourth and Mason streets
worthless. It was filed.
Sew School pat Vinton" Pite.
Member Cermak offered the following
resolution, which was adopted unanimously:
Whereas, The present school buildings on
the Vinton street site are Inadequate and
the Hoard of Kdueatlon did contemplate
erecting a new building yeurs ago, and the
Vinton street elte affords eminent location
for a school houe; therefore be It
Resolved, That it is the sentiment of this
body to erect a modern, commodious build
ing on the Vinton street site In the near
future.
In connection with the Vinton street
sshool a petition with eighty signers of
the district was received, asking that a
new building commensurate' with the de
mands be erected on the present site next
year.
Chairman Stubendorf of the committee
an buildings and property reported that
Thomas R. Kimball had been employed to
draw plans for the new Monmouth Park
icliool, and recommended that should the
plans be accepted Mr. Kimball be engaged
to superintend the construction of the
Vmlldlng at a remuneration of 6 per cent
Bu'. its total cost, all plans and tracings to
,'Iwome the property of the board. The re
port waa adopted without a dissenting
voice.
Superintendent of Buildings Flnlayson
was instructed to move the present Mon
mouth park school building to the north
wee t corner of the grounds during vacation
In order to provide temporary quarters
while the new structure Is going up. For
the new building It was decided to use
rl'cam heat, for the purpose of securing ao
improvement In veur'latlon system, accord
ing to Member Stubendorf.
After the regular order of business wis
transacted the board took another fall out
of the rule revision, and succeeded In
working to the seventy-seventh page of
the rode and making a lot of changes, most
of them being unimportant. , Obe depar
ture, however, affects the salaries of tne
supervisors of music and drawing. Tht
of the former was reduced from 1150 a
month to $130, and the latter from 1140 to
$130. This makes their wagea the same aa
the supervisor of klndergartena, and was
done upon tho motion of Member Stuben
dorf by a vote of 7 to t. The other sala
ries remained the same aa at present.
An attempt was made by Member Smith
to have passed a resolution making It un
necessary for cadets to have un I forma to
frill at the high school. It was knocked
out without much trouble - by Members
Christie and others, .
One of the new rules adopted gives teacb
irs an opportunity to be sick and draw
pay for as much as three days In the year,
(f they are caught hammiog Instant dis
missal will be the penalty.

A couple of elderly women, evidently
strangers In the city and unaccustomed to
the turnstile doorways at the postofflcs,
afforded a little quiet tmuitmint tor a
moment or two last evening In trying to get
through the doorway. They persistently
tried to go through the left side Instead
of the ngh and Invariably collided with
some one coming out. "1 wonder how on
earth those people got In there?" said one.
"(letting out is easy enough." The be
wildered women were finally shown the
right way to get through and took a run
for It in fear, as one observed, "we Will
wind ourselves out again. But then folx
have got to learn."
Is an ordeal which all
women approach with
indescribable fear, for
nothing compare with
the pain and horror of
child-birth. The thoutrht

Antl-Moores men, entrenched behind the
-ord "Indorse," as oeeurlng In the resolu
tion which was offred one week ago by J.
Y. Craig at the meeting of the North
Omaha Improvement club, sought to thwart
the desires of the club members In the ex
pression of their feeling toward Mayor
Moore for his veto of tbe "open door"
electrle power ordinance, at the meeting of
that club again Monday evening. The res
olution also requested Councilman Karr to
use his vote and Influence In the passage
of the measure. The failure of Karr to
pledge himself In favor of the measure tad
the effect of calling eut the largest repre
sentation of North Omaha residents to the
meeting last night that has been chronicled
in the history of tho elub. For two hours
the battle waged royal and resulted la
Councilman Karr being severely criticised
and bitterly attacked tor his position rel
ative to Us measure.
Considerable feeling hsd boon engendered
during the days Intervening between the
two sessions of the elub owing to the en
counter between Karr aad W. T. Johnson
at the conoluslon of the previous meeting.
This feeling resulted In the two factions
taming out eamasse last night.
Plant Comes On Early.
the first order of business transacted was
taking from tin table the Mooree-Rose
water resolution for adoption, and It re
quired the entire evening to dispose of the
measure.
. J. T. Craig, the father of the resolution,
hoping to prevent a clash of tbe factions,
agreed to remove the first clause endorsing
Mayor Moores for his action (and which
was objectionable to Councilman Karr) pro
vided the councilman would consent to en-
dors the Rosewater measure. HI ulti
matum was received with loud applause.
William I. Klerstead objected to the elim
ination of the endorsement, claiming that
it was essentially the portion which the
club nought to retain as an expression of
It thanks to the mayor for his veto. "If
Karr will stand by the ordlnanoe I will
offer a resolution of tbe same nature In his
behalf," he said, amid cheers and appre
ciative applause.
Mr. Craig defended his action by stating
that he bad not offered the resolution for
the purpose of persecuting Karr, but simply
that the people might have his endorsement
and that they might express themselves at
the polls.
Karr Defends Blnuelf.
Councilman Karr arose to defend himself.
He said that he did not oppose the clause
In tho resolution because it was simply
disagreeable to him, but "because it looked
to him like a political proposition on the
part ot members of the club." Continuing,
he dodged, the Inquiries shot at him by
stating that he "would be fair In bringing
this up in the council. I have said so once
and I say so again before Mr. Rosewater,
who Is here," he said. Seeking to quiet the
overwhelming opposition,- he said he would
"withdraw his opposition and vote for the
resolution."
With ten ' members atandlng upon the
floor seeking recognition from President
EUli, E. F. Morlarty was fsvpred and ar
raigned Karr and the "immortal Ave" of
the council who were fighting Mr. Rose
water's efforts. When he bad concluded
those present gave vent to their apprecia
tion ot his remarks by shouting themselves
nearly hoarse. .
' Speaking for the Moores and Rosewater
adherents,. Mr. W. F. Johnson pointedly
asked Karr: ."Do we understand that you
will support ani vote for the Rosewater
ordinance?" Continuing, he said that as
constituents ot tbe councilman from the
Blxth, tney had a right to ask the ques
tion and secure a plain statement of his
position for or against the measure.
. Karr Evades aa Answer.
-. "I never saw or heard of a man who
would promise to vote upon a proposition
he has not seen," said Karr, in defending
himself against Johnson's question. "I will
do all-la my power tor It."
"Will you vote for It?" asked Johnson.
"Specifically V asked the alderman.
"Yea, air; that's tt," replied his ques
tioner. .
Again dodging the question, Karr arose
and said: "I will say that you may have,
understand me now, may have a chance to
Indorse me, as you desire to Indorse Moores.
That is aa close as I will corns to It."
Cries of "That's not satisfactory," "Tell
us plainly: and "Show up" were given,
while considerable excitement prevailed.
"We want to overcome that majority ot
one In the council, against the Rosewater
ordinance, and that one Is President Karr,"
said W. H. McKay. "We want his pledgs
to vote and support it."
tgnestlon sf Endorsement.
Whsn the question on the adoption of ths
reselutloa was called for President Ellis
refused to put ths question upon the ground
thst It was, politically Inclined, the word
"Indorse" being the barrier, in his opinion.
"We'll appeal from the decision of the
ehalr," shouted a dozen members nearly in
chorus.
"This Is a question ot right or wrong,
said W. F. Johnson, "and we desire to ex
press ourselves to Mayor Moores."
City Clerk Elbourn hurriedly arose and
was given ths floor. "I am not In favor of
Indorsing Mayor Moores by resolution, this
or others. If the elimination sought for
at granted. I will heartily favor it," he said.
Ths excitement abated for a moment,
during wtilch time Mr. Kleratead moved to
amend the resolution by striking out the
word 'indorse" and substituting the word
"thanks.". Cheers followed his motion,
while fifty voices seconded his action.
A rising vote was taken on the adoption
ot the resolution, which was unanimous,
the antls having succeeded la obliterating
the Indorsement, In a way, but not thwart
ing the wishes of the club In recognising
the mayor's action.
Rosewater Impale Kjtrr.
Being repeatedly called upon to address
the mooting. Mr. Andres Rosewater eon
seated and spoke tor over aa hour on the
merits of his measure, not falling during
the course of hie remarks to plainly tell
hie auditors who were the oounctlmanlc
harriers to his progress He vigorously ar
raigned the electrle lighting company for
Its open manner in lobbying in the coun
cil chamber, and tor the alleged statements
t members of that company that it eon
trolled the primaries of the city, and would
control the council. He also said that the
"opes door" ordinance was dratted in the
otBoe of tbe elec'rlc light company.
"Mr. Karr dare not refute my statement,"
he said, directing bis words to tbs council
man, "as Mr. Nash has boasted that It
waa ao drafted."
Ringing cheers greeted his disclosure.
"Using the words of Mr. Karr," he said.
"I will say that there le no such thing as
being fair. He most either be for or
against my ordinance. That Is what you
have told your constituents, but you refuse
to State delnitely your position. Tbs only
proper thing tor you, to do, Mr. Karr, Is to
TLT EKE'S the story of a man

what's the matter? Have rou

did, and get well Use Dr. Kil

If he did this, would you be

Wouldn't you, If you were a
sufferer, follow his advice,
knowing that he bore living,
sentient, vital testimony to the
wonderful virtues of this great
natural remedy?
TA,7 ELL, that is just what
Hugo Ilutt, strongest
man in tbe Philadelphia Fire
Department, hero of a hundred
battles with the flames, is do
ing now through the medium
of this newspaper.
Hugo Ilutt has been con
nected with the Philadelphia
Eire Department for the past'
four years. He is stationed
at the engine house at Nine
teenth and Callowhill Streets.
Mr. Hutt is known as the strongest man in tbe Fire Department
and has taken many prizes at athletic tournaments for his prow
ess in the field of sports.
He is also an ex-sergeaut of tbe United States Infantry, hav
ing for several years been stationed at Fort Niobrara, Neb. Mr.
Hutt Talso served with the Sixth Pennsylvania Kegiment during
the Spanish-American war.
EDITORIAL NOTICE. Swamp-Root is
may have a sample bottle sect absolutely
ing be sure to mention that you read this
make any mistake, but remember the name,
state; that you will vote, for it and work
for its support." Much, applause followed
the remarks ot Mr. Rosewater.
What Karr 'Wants.
" Mr. Karr jumped to his feet and ad
dressing himself to Mr. Rosewater, said:
'"I will say to you that cot until I see
the proposition come up in the council will
I vote tor It. I don't see why you should
come here and 'turn' me; you have noth
ing to gain by so doing. Why don't you
wait until you see how I vote."
. Cries of, "That's too late," "Toll us
now," compelled the councilman to dis
continue speaking and &U down.
"I don't think there Is a man la the
room," said Mr. Rosewater, "who knows
How this man ((Karr) will vote. I don't
think he himself knows. Men are now
Judged in public affairs by their continuous
actions, and not by their spontaneous acts."
The remark again caused the crowd to
vigorously display Its support for the Rose
water measure In cheering and applause,
which continued for nearly live mluutes.
1 say that you owe the people a duty
ia giving your vote for this ordinance,"
continued Mr. Rosewater, "and you should
show your support to your constituents by
your affirmative vote."
When the cheering subsided Karr sought
to defend his position by asking Mr. Rose
water: "Would you accept an amendment
to your ordinance now?"
"It's too late, and you know It.," was
the reply.
The crowd present yelled Itself nearly
hoarse as the councilman, humiliated, sat
down.
Amid deafening cheers the meeting was
adjourned.

Bitting as a general committee yester
day afternoon, Councllmen Karr. Hascall,
Hoye, Whiteborn, Zimman, Lobeck and
Trostler decided to buy a strip of ground
forty feet wide and TOO feet long, owned
by the assignees of the Harris ft FiBher
Packing company, in order to open Ban
croft street from Twenty-ninth to a subway
that is to be constructed under the Union
Pacific traoks. The consideration is to be
the cancellation of the city and county
delinquent taxes against the whole prop
ertyabout forty acres. The city taxes
amount to more than $7,000 and the county
taxes to about $2,000. Tbe exchange is to
be made only if the county commissioners
agree to cancel tbe county's portion of the
taxes.-
W. A. DeBord, representing W. K. Pot
ter and other property owners, protested
against a proposed change in grade In the
alley between Cass and California streets
from Thirtieth street to Twenty-eighth av
enue. He stated that the residents on the
California street side of the alley would
have their barns perched high In tbe air,
while tbe Casa street citizens would have
their stables at grade. Further, that the
majority of the abutting property owners
now do not want the change, several hav
ing signed the petition under misapprehen
sion. The committee voted to ask the
mayor to veto the grade ordinance. It la
understood that the opposition also is ac
tive and has urged the mayor to sign the
ordinance, which is before him.
Will Make Lobs Street.
John Butler and others spoke for the
Prospect Hill Improvement club regarding
an ordlnanoe providing for the opening ot
Thirtieth street from Cuming te Hamilton.
The ordinance has been held back by the
oouncil because the customary $25 to pay
appraiser' fees has not been deposited by
the club. Upon auurance that the money
will be forthcoming the committee ordered
the document reported for passage tonight.
Mr. Butler stated that another ordinance
was being prepared calling for the opening
of Thirtieth atreet from Hamilton to Ames
avenue. This will mean a continuous thor
oughfare from Florence to South Omaha,
and Is what many ot the Interested prop
erty owners In and around Prospect Hill

atives and friends would have, at no time,
been surprised to learn of my death.
It was all due to kidney trouble, for which
I could secure no relief. I was under tbe
care of my family physician for a number
of years, but he was unable to do me any
good. I also consulted two noted spe
cialists on kidney diseases, but tbey were
unable to give me more than temporary
relief. I had already made application to
Join the army, but was turned down on
acoount of my bad physical condition.
"I was advised to try that greatest ot
all remedies SWAMP-ROOT.
"I wrots to Dr. Kilmer A Co., at Blng
hamton, N. T., for a sample bottle, and
its effect upon me "as so noticeable that
I went Immediately and bought a supply
from my druggist, with the result that In
a comparatively short time I had entirely
recovered and became the man you see uie
now.
"I served a comber of years In tbe army
and for the past four years I have been
connected with the Philadelphia Fire De
partment. My work, both In the army and
Cgnting fires In Philadelphia, has been the
most arduous, and work that I could not
do, did I not have a strong physique.
"I do not know what tbe words 'Kid
ney Trouble' mean now, and do cot expect
to. I cannot speak too highly of Swamp
Root. A few bottles of this great remedy
did more for me than a dozen pbysicisns
could."
