Board Being; Censored.
At the last meeting of the Board of Edu
cation an order was Issued directing the
carpenters Wployed hr the district to pro
ceed at once and lay two-plank sidewalk
around the proposed High school grounds
at Twenty-third and K atreets. This ac
tion has caused more comment than the
painting bills or the allowing of coal bills
Property owners residing In the eastern
portion of the city are Indignant and a pe
tition is now being circulated asking the
board to reconsider Its motion and direct
that a permanent walk be laid.
The proposed high school grounds occupy
half a block, extending from J to K streets
with frontage on Twenty-third street. As
the sidewalk on the J and K street ends
of the block has been In bad shape' for some
time Laverty, Bock and Lott proposed that
two-plank walk be laid.
"XI a walk or this kind Is laid," said a
taxpayer residing in the vicinity, "it will
be torn up by Indignant cltliens. More
than this, If the petition for a permanent
walk Is not considered by the board at Us
next meeting the city council will be re
quested to pass an ordinance directing that
permanent walks be laid on J street from
Twenty-third to Twenty-fourth street, on
K street from Thirty-second to Twenty
fourth street, and on Twenty-third street
from J to K atreets. Should the Board of
Education ignore this ordinance the city
will lay the walks and deduct the cost from
the revenue of the board which Is derived
from liquor lincenses."
President Miller of the Board of Educa
tion said last night that he had heard
complaints and protest against the Lav
erty walk and had requested the carpenters
to hold off until the next board meeting.
Mayor Signs Ordinances.
Testerday afternoon Mayor Koutsky
s'gned the grading ordinances passed st
PtrJJPLES
And other eruptions which mar the skin
are more than a disfigurement and an
noyance; they are a positive detriment
to the business interests and social suc
cesses of the man
they mark. Oth
er things being
equal, the man
with a smooth
skin and clear
complexion will
find it easier to
get a good posi
tion or a good
wire than the
man whose face
shows the impu
rity of his blood.
That's the real
point. The blood
Js bad. And for
ithat very reason
any treatment
l which is desien-
ed to cleanee the
skin must
cleanse the
blood.

the council meeting Monday night. As sooa
as theso ordinances have been published
the grading will be commenced. As for
the stock Inspection ordinance, the mayor
put It In his pocket and told the city clork
that he would read it over st hli leisure.
Last evening the msyor said that more
than likely ho would sign the ordinance,
providing that It did not Jeopardize the
city's interests in any way.
This stock inspection ordinance has been
a bone of contention between the mayor
and council for some months. The mayor
saw fit to remove Clark Howard from the
position of stock examiner and the coun
cil then took up the fight and refused to
have anything to do with the man n&med
by the msyor to succeed Howard. Tu re
sult was that no lnpec:tr was appointed.
Should the mayor sign the ordinance he
will still have the naming of an inspector,
but subject to confirmation by the council.
Special Monday Services.
Secretary Charles Marsh of the local
Young Men's Christian association stated
last evening that Frederick A. Hatch of
Omaha would speak to members and friends
of the association at Masonic hall on Sun
day afternoon. Arrangements are being
made for special music on this occasion.
These afternoon meetings are attracting
considerable attention and as the attend
ance has grown so rapidly it aa deemed
necessary to secure a larger hall. Hereto
fore the meetings on Sunday afternoon
have been held In the association parlors.

A Preventive of Pneumonia.
Owing to the prevalence of colds and grip
there have been many cases of pneumonia
during the part winter. It baa been ob
served, however, that the colds snd grip
never result la pneumonia when Chamber
rain's Cough Remedy Is used. Among the
tens of thousands who used that remedy
during the prealence of grip lo the past
ten years not one case has been reported
that resulted In pneumonia or that did not
recover, which shows that remedy to be a
certain preventive of pneumonia and un
equalled as a sure cure for colds and grip.

At the meeting of the Southwest Improve
ment club st Twenty-fourth and Leaven
worth streets Wedneslay evening City En
gineer Roeeviatcr and Councilman Hasrall
dlucussed the Roscwater franchise ordi
nance wtt"j a gieat deal of fervo-.
Mr. Roscwater spoke first, thanking the
club for its unsolicited approval of the or
dinance and its actiun recommending thst
the ordinance be put before the people to
vote upon. He then launched upon the
terms of the ordinance and showed wherein
the granting of the ordinance would be a
material benefit to Omaha as a city and to
the manufacturers and electric current
users. He explained In detail the character
of the ordinance, the decreased cost of elec
trical power from 50 to "3 per cent lees
than that obtaining now, the royalty of 1
per cent to be raid the city for the first
five years, 2 per cent the following five
years, and 3 per cent for the year fol
lowing; the bid for the city lighting of
more than SO per cent less than the pres
ent cost, the accepting of which Is op
tlonal with the city, and also the fact that
not one cent was required of the city In
the granting of this franchise.
He then told how he had treated with
the Thomson-Houston people for the
handling of the project before he bad n
troduced the ordinance and declared that
they had used his plans and Ideas for their
own advancement and, having learned his
plans, turned to defeat them
fVhnt Blocks the Way.
The entire flfiht against him, he declared,
wae directed by this same corporation and
that It had not spared the use of money In
any .ay to rtofent him before the city
council. It had deliberately bought control
of the council, he declared, and Is blocking
his moves by every kind of trickery and
deception possible. Councilman White
horn for more than six months has been In
tho employ of the electric company and has
declared himself that he has been forced
to act exceedingly carefully In this matter
owing to tho fact that bis bread snd but
ter depended upon his manner of votng,
according to Mr. Rosewater. As for Coun
cilman Mount, he said, that two years, ago
he made specific charges against him and
mado them under oath, offering, at the
time, to meet with a committee from the
council to glvo proof of his charges. A
commltteo was appointed to Investigate
the charges, but he was never called upon
to appear before the committee as It did
not dare to investigate thom. Mr. Mount
has been treated with by the Thomson-
Houston company during the six months
this ordinance has been under discussion
by the count. 1. Mr. Rosewater said he
would say nothing about Councilman Hove,
as he was not present to speak for himself,
but that Mr. Hoye had declared after the
meeting of the council, which was attended
by representative taxpayers of Omaha, that
he waa not with Hascall any n-., tut had
again veered about.
Basin of a Petition.
How the Thomson - Houston people,
through a bit of juggling, had managed to
obtain nominal support from the Real
Estate exchange, the Commcrcial.cluh and
the Central Labor union without the con
sent of a majority of their members, was
explained by Mr. Rosewater. Through tho
employment of some twenty men, hired for
the purpose, they had even presented a
petition to the council asking that the
open door amendment be put to a vote of
the people. This amendment contained
fifty names more than that Mr. Rosewater
htd presented to that body, but few cf the
names were those of taxpayers or of people
of prominence and known business stand
ing. Mr. Rosewater declared (hat what he
desired was that the original ordinance be
placed before the people and that they be
allowed to decldo for themselves whether
they desired this or not. The council, he
declared, has no right to aay to the people
that this was not good for them without
listening to their desires. It was the right
of the Omaha laborer and taxpayer to say
whether they desired to give other electric
power companies the right to operate in
Omaha or not. They had asked that It be
put to their vote and It should be. No
other company was hindered from coming
into Omsha later by this ordinance and be
wanted the peopt9 ;o say whether hia pro
ject should be given an opportunity or
not.
llaaeall In the Defense.
Councilman Hascall denied the state
ments made against the integ-lty of the
council in general, although he declined to
take any stand in the charges that were
made against Mr. Mount and absolutely
Ignored what had been said about Mr.
Whltchorn's connection with the Thomson
Houn'nn company. The open door ordi
nance, he aald, was that which he favored,
as it gave no one any privileges over any
other party and all were free to come Into
the city under the same terms.
Mr. Rosewater at this point rose to deny
that his ordinance as drawn up would
deter others from bringing power in'o the
city under like conditions as would be
granted to him.
Councilman Hascall then continued In a
general way and In the course of his re
marks touched upon the "old, false theory
that the sun Is a ball of fire." "It Is more
than probable," be said, "that people live
there and what some people tske for fire Is
merely the succession of electrical sparks
flashing over the sun." He neglected to
state whether these were the products of
the Thomson-Houston company or of a
power canal.
"No heat comes from the sun," he de
clared. "The electrical flashes cause light,
which comes to us, and as the rays of light
pass through the air there Is friction, and
that causes the heat which we have heard
comes from the sun. On damp days the
friction Is greater, and, therefore, the day
la hotter."
Some Club Matters.
The committees appointed by the club
reported that some new crosswalks were
being placed on Mason street and that It
was reported at the city engineer's office
that work ou sidewalks and crossings Is
being pushed forwsrd ss rapidly ss possible.

Speeches.
The fifth annual banquet cf the Woman's
Alliance of Unity church was held last
evening at the church. The tables were
set In the Sunday school room and about
850 members of the slliance ani their hus
bands and friends sat down to the banquet
board. After the discussion of a delightful
menu. Rev. Newton M. Mann, who most
gracefully prestded as toastmaster, called
for responses.
"The Ladles" was assigned . to Mr.
Boucher, who paid an eloquent tribute to
the fair sex. His response wes replete
with eloquence and wit, eliciting both rp
preclatlve applause and frequent outbursts
of laughter.
"The Woman's Alliance" was responded
to in a brief address by Mrs. Breen, secre
tary of the alliance.
Mrs. Reed responded to the tcast of the
"Sunday School." Fhe gave a brief and
Interesting history of I'nlty church Sunday

until she gave a second number.

Mr. Whltmore, and then followed a fine
baritone solo, "The Two Grenadiers," by
Mr. Manchester. In response to an encore
he sang "The Jolly Monk."
Ex-Governor Crounse responded to the
sentiment, "The Church." He said he be
lieved in churches and church-going. "I
do not think that the dream of an Ideal
church will ever be realized," he said.
"It would be a grand thing to see one
big union church, like the St. Paul of
London, or St. Peter's cf Rome, where
from 10,000 to 15.000 persons could as
semble at once. And the most eloqumt
and famed preachers to address the con
gregation and a grand choir of the most
cultured voices, and where all the contribu
tions could go Into one great fund for the
church and church purposes. But this hope
ran never materialize, because denomina
tional differences will and have always
existed, so It Is probably best as It ts."
On the Middle Classes.
' Hon. O. M. Hitchcock- was the final
speaker and responded to the tosst, "The
Middle Class." He said: "The genealogy
of the mlddlo class Is short. It Includes
all persona everywhere, engaged in any
useful occupation or profession. la the
