City Attorney Lambrrt made th sn
nouncement yesterday that he would not
make nr appointment of a city claim
agent until during the summer vacation
of the court. ."P. A. Barrett, ths present
claim agent," laM Mr. Lsmhrt, "trill be
needed In a ntimbor of cults against the
city which will come up before the usual
Rummer vacation. To n-.aka an appoint
ment at this time would be to Jeopardise
the Interests of the city In fighting these
rases." About fifteen democrats have filed
nppllcatlons with City Attorney ' Lambert
for this place. The job pays 49 and is
considered quite a responsible position. To
those who have so far presented applica
tions Mr. Lambert smiles affably and re
marks that ha will consider the matter
later.
Aside from attending to a number of
rases now pending agalnat the city, Mr.
Lambert is engaged in preparing an ordin
ance for the Issuing of bonds for th grad
ing, paving and oorNng of South Twenty
fourth street and Railroad avenue. In
speaking of this ordinance last night Mr.
Lambert aaid that so many points had to
be looked up and the records gone Into so
thoroughly that it would not bs possible
for him, to present this document to the
council at the meeting to be held on Mon
day night At the rate this matter Is
progressing, It does not look as If the pav
ing of the streets mentioned can be com
menced until late In the summer, follow
ing the passage of the ordinance, for which
three separate meetings will have to be
held, there will be the necessary publica
tion of the ordinance and then the adver
tising for bids for the bonds. When bids
have been received histories of the pro
posed issue will have to be prepared and
sent to bond buyer' attorneys in the east.
All of this takes time. Dan Hannon, who
has the contract for the work, aays that he
will not make any preparations until he is
assured that the bonds will be purchased.
The Improvements; contemplated will cost
In the neighborhood of 175.000.

- Councilman Adklna has requested the city
attorney to prepare aa ordinance regulating
the speed of automobiles Inside the city
limits. Bo far the city attorney has not
bad the time to pay any attention to the
request. Friends of -Adklna are joshing
him a great deal about attempting to regu
late the speed of automobiles, especially aa
the pavements are so full of holes that
it I" considered almost dangerous to run
an automobile even at a snail's pace down
Twenty-fourth street. Some day the pave
ments may be repaired and It Is presumed
that Adklns had this in mind when he In
troduced hJa motion.

ONE OF THE ACCUSED IS BOUND OYER

the Air la that Warlike
t'ontntnntty.
George Weatherford. Tenth and Nicholas
streets, has been arraigned In police court
on a charge of shooting with Intent to kill,
preferred by John F. Martin, a neighbor.
The prisoner was bound over to the district
court on a bond of 1600. y
At the time of the trial the atmosphere
of the court room suggested the hearing of
a Kentucky feud case. The testimony was
iraugnt with much Interest and so enthusi
astic did one of the witnesses become when
her husband was on the stand that she waa
warned that a repetition of the outbreak
would mean her ejection from the court
room.
According to the evidence offered, bad
blood baa existed between the Martins and
Weatherfords for over two years, the po
nce having been called on several times
recently to pour oil on the troubled waters.
The feeling seems to have broken out last
Monday evening over some trivial eruption
between the children of the Weatherfords
and other famillea
It Is said that while, Mra. Martin was
talking to a neighbor In front of the form
er's gate about 7 o'clock Monday evening
George Weatherford. the prisoner, accosted
the Martin woman with a vile oath. Mr.
Martin then appeared on the scene and
ordered Weatherford away. The defendant
Is then said to havs backed Into the street,
drawn a revolver and to have said:
"1 11 kill you."

Martin says he then started for his house
to get his gun, when a bullet from Weath-
erford's weapon whlxxed past his legs.
Martin then came out with his firearms,
when a second leaden missile from Weath
erford narrowly missed Mrs. Martin's head.
Martin testified he then fired a shot it
Weatherford, when the tatter's mother, an
aged and crippled woman, threw her arms
around her son's neck, thinking thus to pro
tect him from a second shot. Weatherford
Is then alleged to have tried to shoot again
over his mother's shoulders, but she begged
him to desist.
A little humor was injected Into the pro
ceedings by Mrs. Coleman, a deaf witness.
The woman testified she saw and heard the
shots fired and added that her neighbors
have been making i shooting gallery of
that locality for aome time and she was be
coming heartily sick of the warlike salu
tations with which her neighbors have keen
greeting each other.

HEIR TO FORTUNE IN OMAHA
James Doyle, Agred Man Who Inherits
Money, at Home of J.

J. Tousen, who conducts a tailor shop In
the Faxton hotel, at 1411 Farnam street,
has notified City Clerk Elbourn that James
Doyle, for whom a small fortune Is sup
posed to be waiting at Dixon, 111., la at
Tousen's home at 4336 Jackson street. Mr.
Tousen said Doyle had corns to his house
hold from the Home of the Good Shepherd
about four years ago and had been living
with him since. The heir Is about 70 years
old, and Yousen connected htm with the
newspaper stories partly from the fact that
he had lived at Dixon, III.
City Clerk Elbourn Is making an Investi
gation this afternoon to establish Doyle's
Identity.
Doyle refuses to give but little Informa
tion concerning himself and Is utterly In
different to whatever riches may be bis by
rightful possession.

There Is too much red fire about "II Trova

footlights are mnde rusty by the light of
flames with which som near relative of
this or that principal ii the cast Is being
boiled down In the " - because he did
or he dldn t sjmeth ,r other snd the
words are the words black woe, and
the muslo cries aloud In an abandon of
heart-wrung misery. It Is not like "Faust."
"Faust" has at least two very good acts
before Mephlsto can figure a profit. It Is
not like "Carmen," for that busy beguller
had a nice enough time about the cigarette
factory and the place of the bull. There
Is nothing In "II Trovatore" for any of its
people.
Mies Rose Cecilia Shay made a valiant
effort last evening to sing the passionate
music of the gypsy Axucena. But It was
an effort only she could not sing. From
her first appearance It waa evident to the
sympathetic audience that she was by no
means In condition to sing. After the first
hoarseness she was able to sing one duet,
but with evident effort. It was necessary
to omit the dramatlo song In which she
tells of her awful sorrows snd In the dun
geon scene of the last act after another
painful effort she gave up and the piece
was brought to ths curtain without the
final muslo and the dramatic climax.
The company la evidently winning good
opinions, for a very good sudlenoe at
tended the matinee and the night house
was larger than the Opening evening. The
audience which heard "II Trovatore" waa
a muslc-lovlng gathering and thoroughly
In sympathy with the singers. These re
sponded In kind and had It not been for the
unfortunate condition of Miss Shay . the
performance would have been very pleasing.
Mr. James Stevens as the Count dl Luna
sustained his first impression and sang
with much grace of expression and sym
pathy with the theme. His song wherein
he pours out "all this love within me burn
ing" brought him much applause, as did
his other efforts. Joseph Fredericks, who
sang "Faust" Tuesday night, appeared last
night as Manrlco, and pleased the audi
ence most In his duet with Lenora (Miss
Carrlngton) through the prison bars.
George Shields as Ferrando, a follower of
the count, had no such opportunity as In
the evil spirit of "Faust."
It was left to Miss Mary Carrlngton to
provoke ths warmest applause of the even
ing. She haa a voice which Is charming In
both the upper and lower registers, and
acts almosts as well as she sings.
"The Bohemian Girl" was the matinee
program. Its lighter muslo and tuneful
ballads and the more genial character of
Its story have made'it an always popular
piece, and a good attendance was to be ex
pected. Miss Shay appeared as the Gypsy
queen during the first and second acts,
but was forced to retire before the third
In favor of Hattle Belle Ladd, who finished
the part satisfactorily. William Stephens
as Thaddeus made his first appearance dur
ing the engagement and created a good
Impression by his tenor voice and presence.
James Stevens sang Count Arnhelm and
George Shields had a good pact in Devils
hoof, and was well liked. Miss Carrlngton
as the girlish Arllne did some good work.
WILL PLANT TREES ANYHOW
t
Prospect Hlllers lfot to Be Balked
Because a Contractor Gives
t!p Vndertaklng.
Nearly the entire session of the Pros
pect Hill Improvement club last evening
was devoted to the tree-planting situation.
It was announced that the man who made
a contract with the city to plant trees on
Prospect Hill, according to stakes laid out
by the city engineer, has refused to fill the
contract, and In view of this situation it
waa the sentiment of the members present
that the dilemma should be taken by the
horns before the time for tree-planting
shall havs passed for the season. Ac
cordingly a committee of Members Daley,
Hurst and Unltt was appointed to wait
on City Engineer Rosewater and the Park
board, requesting the former to cancel
the contract referred to. and arranging
with the latter to plant ths trees on Pros
pect Hill and prorate the expense to ths
property owners.
It was ths original Intention of ths club
to have each property owner In the dis
trict plant trees otr Arbor day. according
to individual inclinations, but this resolu
tion was subsequently modified by having
an ordinance passed which provided for
the placing ot stakes by the city engineer,
and only one kind of tree planted so as
to maintain uniformity. Bids were adver
tised for snd It appears that the contract
was let to the only bidder, who now refuses
to do the work on the grounds that the

bond required Is too high, considering thst
trees planted In front of vacant lots must
be kept up for two years, which risk the
bidder thinks out of proportion with the
bond. Considerable discussion was in
dulged In by ths members, who were unanl-
mous In the opinion that the matter should !
not now go by default Just because a con
tractor has thrown up his Job. j
A motion was carried to the effect that
the club attend In a body st the Franklin

It Is expected thnt John F. Daley will give
an oration and thnt other features befitting
to the occasion will be on the program.
Ths members of the club hope to make the
day a red-letter event In the history of i
the organisation.
It was reported that negotiations are ;
