Yeteidny afternoon City At torney Murd'K k received u notice from the cli rk of the xupicrne court declaring that the contention of the city In the cases In question had been sustained. In spenklnn of thin decision Inst night Mr. Murdock aald: "This mesns that squatters all over the city will be (oni)clled to either make leaps with the city for the portions of streets end alleys occupied hy them of e!e vacate within a reasonable time." Once or twice 'a year the city engineer makes a list of the names of njuatters and the property on which they are located. Then notices to vacate ere- served. Many squatters have been holding back, disre garding the notices, on account of the rases which have been pending In the supreme court. Now, with the decision to back it, the legal department of the city will pro ceed to oust squutU'.rs or else make ar rangement for short-time leases. Hy leas ing stub ends of streets and alleys the city can hold its title to the property. nn matter J how long squatters have been located on any one tract. It is not the intention of the city officials to compel anyone to move In cold weather. More than likely notices compelling a movement to be made wlthltr sixty days from the service of the notice will be Issued. In this way squatters will be given ample time to look around and secure other loca tions for their houses. Rasing- Old Light Plant.

In every case the disease resulted from a cold. Had the cold been promptly and properly trested at the outset almost every one would have recovered.

All who ara In favor of the adoption of the resolutions as rend will signify by the usual sign. Those opposed by the negative sign. The ayes have It. and we will now proceed to the next order of business. "The Silver 81lrper" drew out one of the finest audiences of the season to the Boyd theater last night. Every seat In the house was taken and a fringe of show-hungry mortals hung over the rail on the first floor during the entire time of the performance. Tho matinee, too, had a Jam, nnd the eyes o. the company's manaper glistened with renl tears as he watched the throngs press to get through the doors and thought of the ftnnricial desert In which he and his company has been wandering for many weary weekr.. Omaha is an oasis that has been welcome to the tired Thecplan all this season, at any ratp. And both of these big audiences were good-natured, and laughed heartily at tho foolery set before them, and listened with much attention to the song features of the bill, although nothing occurred that moved the peopio to any riotous outbursts of applause, or even to such a demonstration as coulJ L." ci'.lcd generous. The piece Is cleverly put to gether, and the little bit of substance it possesses Is displayed to the greatest ad vantage. It .presents a constantly rhlfting scries of pictures Jw color, with bright faces and dainty dresses mingling In tho maze of movement; It offers a succession of tinkling melodies, a continual changing of sweet sounds, but It doesn't afford any thing that will be carried In the memory, not even the vaunted "champagne" dance. Sam Collins again demonstrated that he Is a good low comedian and that he is willing to do all he can to make a merry evening for the patrons of the piece. H la not alone In this, though, for If the com pany has one strong point, It Is the willing ness of Its members to try to please. Each and all work hard and get the best effects possible. Laura Clement Is asked to make a guy of herself, and does It with good grace and amusing effect. Ann Tyrell acta well and sings her songs In a pleaBlng voice that Is sweet If not strong. Alfred Kappelar haa a good voice, at least one Is led to that conclusion from the little one heard of It last night; but he seems bent on saving It, and makes his songs seem more like dreams than real songs. The chorus Is large, but tho s.'age manager haa managed to get the advertised "twenty-four young men" seated In fourteen chair. . Ha ought to change the lines of the song to meet the physical facts.

RICH EXTRAVAGANT, POOR OPPRESSED Hesults Teach that o atlon (an Long lllsrenard the Rlahts of the Masses of the Common People. Rev. Fnther Ptrltch gave the fifth and last lecture in a series that has been listened to with much pleasure and profit at the LTa-red Heart church. Twenty-third and Blnney streets, Thursday. The body of the church was well ItlleJ with people who gave the speaker the closest of atten tion throughout a narrative discourse on "The French Revolution, Its Causes and Effects." In the beginning Father Strltch said that of course It would be Impossible for him to give anything like a complete Idea of so vast a subject In the brief time allotted to him to speak. So much has been written, some of It true and mure of It untrue, that It Is a difficult matter to sort out the good from the bad and the fact from the Action. Some authorities consider that the French revolution was begun In 1T70 and Is far from ended yet, while others say that it lasted from 1789 to 1S14, tho year of the overthrow of Napoleon Bonaparte; still other historian write of It as being con summated between the years of 179 and V'J&. The speaker cited the events that led up to the tremendous upheaval In France, not only on French soil, but In Germany and other countries as well, and said that the reformation doubtb-ss had much to do In the formation of the events of many years afterward. France was originally made up of a great number of small stated, without any unity of purpose or govern ment, until, under Louis XIV, and later under his grandson, Louis XV, the larger had gradually absorbed and dominated the smaller. The richer became richer, the poorer became poorer, the feudal system became more deeply entrenched and cor. ruptlon and extravagance retgned supreme. The bloody revolution that cost so mnny thousands of lives and caused so much needless suffering and bloodshed was the Inevitable result. Besides ho nobility, the church played an all powerful part lit the destiny of France at this time. Tho clergy of the time were as a rule pure and conscientious, but among the higher clergy, the bishops and abbotts, who many times bought nnd paid for their high offices with vast posses sions, was much corruption. At ono time two-fifths of the peoplo of the poorer class were, paying all the taxes, while the three. fifths paid nothing und lived 111 extrava gance and profligacy. Father Striteh spoke nt some length cf the societies that were formed In Franco lit this time, particularly of tho Jacobins and the results of their methods, and said that while they were awful to contemplate even at this time, they had served to show the nations of the world one all Important thing that no nation, pstablishcd on what soever form of government, could for long successfully disregard the rights of the common people. WASHINU WITHOtT WATER la Like Trying; to Get Hid of Dandruff Without Herplelde. Did you ever see any one trying to wash themselves without sonp or water? If you did what would you say of him? It Is every bit aa foolish to try to get rid of dandruff and to prevent baldness by feeding the germs which cause It, with cantharldea, vaseline, glycerine and simi lar substances which .'orni the principal Ingredients of most so-called hair vigors.

After a two hours' executive session yes terday afternoon the Advisory board rec ommended to the mayor and council that awards be made fur apparatus and supplb a, costing 1:5.910, for the fire department. In some cases the contracts were given to firms submitting the lowest prices and In others to those which. In the Judgment of the board, offered a superior article. The American Fire Engine company won out for a 9.800-pound machine with a bid of J5,l'i f. o. b. Cincinnati. The freight will cost making the price less than that of the Nntt Fire Engine company of .".i5ii. This is ho '"Metropolitan" engine, which the mayor and lire chief wish to buy and which has boen opposed by the council. The latter body still may Insist upon a competitive test between the two engines, and such action was considered probable this morning. .The Seagrave compay of Columbus, O, carried off the awards for all the hose wagons and trucks, biddlVg $5,400 for tha eighty-five-foot, lapid-rnMng hook and ladder truck with watertower attachment; J7.5O0 for five special hos wagons equipped with Glazier Monitor nozzles and $2,225 for a city hook and laxVder truck. For the trucks this firm was low and for the wag ons presented specifications that met moet nearly the views of the board. The hose to be bought will cost PO cents a foot and is all cotton-covered, being dis tributed among five brands the Paragon, Keystone, Boston Fire Jacket, Baker Fab ric and Mohican. These bids were not tha lowest submitted, but the qualities were selected because it was the desire of the board to obtain them. Awards for four Gamewell engine house gongs were awarded to D. L. Eddy, agent, of Omaha, for J150 n piece. The Hlbbler company of Omaha was the low bidder on harness and the award waa made for $."S.

SECOND OF ELLIOTT MEETINGS ed of the Holy Spirit In Every Life the Theme of the Evangelist's Discourse. The second of the special services at tha Vnlted Presbyterian church, Twenty-fourth and Dodge streets, was held last night, with Dr. Elliott preaching. The speaker tcok for his text Acts xlx, 2, "Have ye re ceived the. Holv Ghost?" He devoted a good portion of his sermon In giving ac countr of men who had received the holy spirit and which had come under his per sonal observation. "I," said tho preacher, "was for eight years a member of a Christian church be fore the Holy Spirit entered Into my heart And so I think it is with a number of others. I knew In a hazy sort of way that there was the Holy Spirit, that the Blbla mentioned one and that It was one of tha essential points In a Christian's life, but it was eight years before I saw clearly. "Some think that the Holy Spirit Is alona for tho minister, and that the church member can go through llfo without It. Tet In the lives of the apostles we see that Peter the preachr' Barnabas the man of gifts and Stephen the martyr, all had re ceived tho Holy Spirit. Life la Incomplete without It. Something Is wanting. Men are leading a humdrum existence, vaguely knowing that they are missing soma bright feature of life and yet will not stop to con elder what It Is that they miss. "There are hindrances to receiving tha srlrlt of God and the most Important Is an unconfessed sin lurking In your heart. All sin must be forgiven by God and disap pear from a person before the Holy Spirit can enter. Another hindrance Is the Igno ranee of the Bible. We cf today do not study the book aa we oucht to. We must understand the promises God has made to us before we CRn expect the fulfillment." Mr. Rykert sang a hymn version of the 10M Dsalm. In n Class All Alone.
