pretty number were presented the piece
d resistance being the operetta "Florlnda."
Florinda, a little sheperdess, wsnders In the
forest and U stolen by Vala the Oypsy
gueen, who by a magic power change her
Into a nightingale so that she does not
recognise her sister Yula. The fairies
remove the charm from Florlnda by means
of a rose In the center of which Is found
an exquisite pearl. When she la rescued
by Yula, after the Oypsy charm has been
removed, the Tyrollana and fairies greet her
amid great rejoicings. Little Oeraldln
O'Malley made a charming Forlnda. She
possesses a sweet soprano voice, and much
natural grace. Rose Gentleman, a tiny
midget, captivated the audience by her
song. "The Maid In the Moon," Miss Jessie
Tucker as the Gypsy queen and Miss
Helen O'Neill as Yula were also particularly
good. The Senior girls as the Tyrollans
gave a novel drill which was replete with
graceful poses.
The Violin Quartet deserve more than
ordinary mention. Under the directorship
of Miss B. Wedensall the young ladle'
gav some excellent music. The choral work

AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA
Tuetl.T, J on 9 S3, it the Data Set for ths
Special Bond Election.
SCHOOL AND OVERLAP ISSUES PROBABLE
It la Argnea that City Will Avert Ex
tremely Heavy Tax Levy and
Rednce Interest Expense by
laming- Bonds.
Tuesday, June 23, la th date set for
holding the special election when the bond
proposition will be submitted to the voters.
Street talk ha It that th high school bonds
and the overlap bonds will most likely
carry. Objections seem to be raised against
the voting of the sewer and city hall bonds.
Those familiar with city hall affair assert
that by all means the overlap bond should
be voted, a by taking up this overlap.
which has been growing for ten years, those
holding claim against th city will be
paid and th Interest on this outstanding
Indebtedness will be decreased. At the
present time the overlap amounts to 170,000.
Should these bonds fall to carry the old
claim will either be paid out of th 1901
levy or else carried along at the same rate
of Interest now being paid. Should It be
deemed advisable to wipe out the debt this
year quite an increase In the levy will be
mad.
Those familiar with city finance assert
that th best way out of the difficulty is to
vote the bonds and thus give the munici
pality plenty of time In which to secure the
money to meet th obligations. These
bonds. If Issued, are to be payable In from
one to twenty year and will draw 5 per
cent Interest, or less, If bidders can be ob
talned. As the security is considered ex
cellent It Is figured that the bonds will
bring a premium. At the present time the
general bonded debt of the city is $307,000
and the addition of (70.000 will make a total
general Indebtedness of only $377,000, which
la not considered high for a city having a
valuation of over $18,000,000.
Arrangement toe the holding of the spe
cial election are about completed. Yes
terday Clerk Shrlgley sent to the official
printer of the city a list of the places of
registration and this Jlst will be printed
today. Only one day will be given for a
revision of the registration. All persons

Many Dirty Alley.
Nearly all the alley In the business por
tion of the city are In a decidedly filthy
and unhealthy condition. The attention of
Mayor Koutsky ha been called to this
condition a number of times within the
last month. Not long ago the mayor di
rected th sanitary Inspector to serve no
tices to clean up. While the notices were
accepted when served, no attention was
paid to th order and dally th condition
of th alley become worse.
Formerly the mayor was in a position
to Instruct the police to see to It that or
ders to clean up were obeyed under pen
alty of arrest. Now that th mayor ha
nothing whatever to do with the polio
force, th order of th Inspector are dis
regarded, thus endangering th health of
the citizens. Physicians say that should
the weather turn off real hot the filth In
the back yard and alleys will bring about
considerable sickness. The Board of
Health Is practically powerless without
the aid of th police to enforce order Is
sued by It
Dead Street Car Rati.
For th last five year the council ha at
various times endeavored to have th
Omaha Btreet Railway company take up
dead rail on N street. A line of dead
rails, with no connection whatever with
the main Una, extends on N street from
Twenty-fourth to Twenty-sixth street.
In place these dead rails are from two to
three Inches above th brick pavement
Requests have been road of th company
to tak up these rails, but no attention ha
been, paid to such requests. Th city
council ha th power to enforce Its order
In thl connection If it so desires, but all
tbat It baa ever don was to Instruct th
clerk to notify th company te remove th
dead rails. Almost dally accidents srs
narrowly averted by reason of the rails
In question projecting above the pave
ment. City Obligations Dae.
Treasurer Howe has prepared a state
ment for th city council showing th
amount due at the state fiscal agency In
New York City on July 1. The total Is
17.133. This amount Is divided between
paving and curbing districts and Interest
on renewal and refunding bonds. As
there la no money on hand In any of the
funds mentioned it will be necessary for
the mayor and council to borrow th
money to meet tho payments. Money bor
rowed In this manner Is repaid to the
banks as soon as property owners settle
th taxes for paving, grading, curbing,
etc.
Fir Horses Disabled. '
Two of the horses In the Are department
are on the sick list and the attention of
the Fire and Police board Is to be called
to the fact that the department needs not
less than thret horses. One of the horses
at No. 1 house has been In the hospital
for a couple of weeks and Wednesday
"Joe," the reserve horse, was taken sick
nd the services , of a veterinary were
needed. The horse that Chief Garrett
drive has been In service for over a dosen
year and Is almost ready for the bone
yard. With the addition of three horse j
and three men the department would be
In first-class shape. On account of the
overlap in the fire fund the board is not
In a position now to make any purchases
or employ any more men than absolutely
necessary.
George Park Return.
George Parks, superintendent of construc
tion for tho Cudahy Packing company, re
turned yesterday from Kansas City. He
said that the Cudahy plant would be ready
to slaughter live stock before the stock
yards company would be in position to
handle receipts to amount to anything. In
speaking of the wreck around the Cudahy
house Mr. Parks said that It had been
necessary to dig cars out of Ave feet of
mud in order to reach the tracks. It will
be some time, according to Mr. Parks, be

will be In shape to handle business as ex
peditiously as before the high water.

CHICAGO, June IS. The Russian giv
ernment has taken cognizance of the pro
tests against the Klshlneff massacres.
Great concessions have been granted to the
Jew which will relieve their terribly con
fined condition In the large cities where
they are herded together and constantly
under the eye of the government officials.
This news was received in a cable from
Odessa signed-by Leon Bcrslak tonight.
Accordlpg to..the dispatch a committee of
fifty of the most iqfluential Jews of Odessa,
consisting of lawyers, bankers and phil
anthropists went' to St. Petersburg and
were received by the minister of the In
terior, M. von Plehe, and the minister of
finance, M. Wltte. The committee pre
sented a memorial relating the misery of
those families who lost all during the ter
rible mcssacre and asking the clemency of
the czar.
A meeting of the ministry was subse
quently called and the question taken up.
The head of the Jewish church at Kron
studt, who lead the committee, was called
Into the conference. Finally the ministers
decided that all village should, as regards
the Jews, be classified as cities and that
Jews should bb permitted to reside In them.
As a 'urther concession the edict pro
hibiting Jews from.llvlng within fifty miles
of the frontier was removed.

AT THE PLAYHOUSES
Ferris Stock Company nt the Kojil.
Mr. Dick Ferris may accept the crowded
house that greeted him lit the Boyd last
evening as a personal testimonial. Not
that the company bearing his name has not
had uniformly large houses since Its sea
son opened, for Mr. Ferris knows that,
having access to the box office reports. But
the presence of an unusual number on
Thursday evening Is undoubtedly due to
some extraordinary attraction, and In this
Instance the occasion must have been the
bill and the star. The part of Fltzhew In
"The Man from Mexico" Is one well fitted
for Mr. Ferris' uses, and he makes the
most of It. His training and natural bent
Is in the direction of light comedy, and In
these role he dots hi best work. HI
natural manner Is well suited to the part
he has in the present piece, and he certainly
makes It go.
Other member of the company find
themselves well located in the past. While
the piece la almost farcical, It still gives
room for some good character work, and
this opportunity Is promptly taken advan
tage of. Mr. Slddons Is good as Colonel
Majors, the man who made all '.he trouble'
and didn't get his friend out of It; Mr.
Mylle as Cook, the omnipresent deputy
sheriff, Is also good, and Mr. Caldwell dos
a capital bit of work as Warden Loveall.
Harry Barlow's work as the German, who
sought only for vengeance was much en
Joyed by the audience. Miss Pavey finds
the part of Mrs. Fltxhew well within nor
grasp, and Miss H'.ll did an excellent bit
of work as Nettie Majors.
The piece Is staged and directed with the
caro that has marked every production
given under Mr. Long's dliectlon, and that
means that nothing is omitted. Last night
It was given with a dash that would give
the Impression that the company had been
organized solely to play "The Man from
Mexico." It will continue the bill until after
Sunday evening. On Monday evening
"Graustark" will be given, with both Mr.
Ferrl and Miss Hayward In the cast.
Sunday school picnics at Courtland Beach
