Judge Mung-er baa handed down a memo
randum opinion In the United States circuit
court In the case of Samuel Relchenbera;,
complainant, aalnst the Mason City ft
Fort Podge Railway company (Great West
ern) In which he denies the relief afcked
by complainant for compensation for dam
ages to his property caused by cutting- down
and grading of a portion of Nineteenth
treat in the city of Omaha adjacent to the
complainant's property and also dismisses
the bill to restrain the cutting down of
Nineteenth street for railway purposes as
granted by the city council.
The city of Omaha by ordinance vacated
a portion of Nineteenth street from the
south up to the south margin of Keicheu
berg's premises and authorised the Great
Western railway to enter upon the same,
cut down the (Tads thereof and looata its
tracks and ridings in the vtejnlty. Relohso.
berg claims that because bis premises
abut upon Nineteenth street h has a
special property right in that street or Its
rontage along block 10, and by reason
thereof ha cannot be deprived of suck prop
erty right without compensation for his
damages first being ascertained and ten
dered. Assuming It to be a correct proposition of
law that a property owner has a special
Interest In the street which abuts on bis
premises, the court does not think he has
auch special property interest In a portion
of the street which doea not abut upon his
-premises and that the same may be vacated
Without ascertaining his damages, so long
as the street which abuts upon his prem
ises and which gives him free and full
access to his premises Is not taken away.
In this case the street la undisturbed from
the south boundary of the complainant's
premises to the north and he has full and
free access from his premises to the public
atreets. The court holds his damages are
only In kind with other property owners.

MAYOR SAYS SIGNS MUST GO
Vetermlaed Ksecata Order, Wktch,
City Attaraey Wrlckt sax,
la Valid.
Mayor Moorea says he intends to stand
Arm in his effort to rid downtown streets
of curbstone signs and advertising devices.
While ha will accord the committee from
the merchants and business men a hearing
be thinks Its argumenta will not change
bis attitude. The matter of electric signs.
In his opinion, has nothing to do with the
curbstone nuisance.
The first of the fifteen-day notices to
remove the signs esplrea April 24." said the
mayor. "It may be necessary to give the
notice again In writing, but after this for
mality Is complied with and the time esplred
X shall order a force of man from the
public works department to remove the
nuisances, provided 4he owners do not get
them out of the way. I am told by the city
attorney that I am right from a legal
Standpoint, and I think a majority of the
dtlseng will back me up."

The press session which will be held on
the alleruoon of May 21. will depart in
soverat iruuiuni iroui me pieaa ea-liins
of preordlng ulennlale. MIm f'loreace Hay
Wanl, chalimau of the tieiteral fceaeiation
press committee, realised that an unusual
opportunity offered Itself In the fact that
the dales of the biennial covered those of
the World's Press parliament, thus mak
ing It possible to onus- toavlher the dele
galea to the biennial, and the leading rep
resentatives of the profession of Journal-
Ism, not ouly ef the Uuiied States, but of
ins woria. Arter a conierenoe witn Mrs,
David R. k'raocls and kra. Phlllo N
Moore, the two other members of the
General Federation lrea commit tee, it was
(leaded to Lave Uie presa aessloa consist
of two parts; the first consisting ot short
addresses from four speakers, two men
and two women, journalists, all prominent
end representative members ef the pro
fession. This part of the program will oc
cupy an hour and a half; the second part
to consist of a reception to the executive
committee of the world's Press parlia
ment and their distinguished guests.
The officials of the World's fair, espe
cially President Francis and Mr. W. B.
Stevens, secretary, heartily approved of
the plan as a whole and Immediately of
fered the use of a suitable building at the
World's fair grounds In which to hold the
seaalon. An offer which, It Is needless to
say, was accepted promptly.
The Italian commissioner general, M.
Giovanni Branoal. on learning that the
session would be held at the world's fair
grounds, generously offered the services
of the Italian marines as attendants. They
are picked men, in uniform, and will add
a note of Interest to the afternoon.
The band in attendance will be either
that of the Philippine Boouts or of the
Philippine Constabulary, obtained through
the courtesy of the Philippine commis
sioner, Dr. W. P. Wilson, and the United
States officer in command. Captain John
ston. Though not finally arranged for. It is
f robable that tea will be served by at
endants from China, Japan and Ceylon,
after the fashion of each country. The
large number of guests at the session, par
ticularly during the second part of the
program, tne reception, will mane it im
practical to offer more solid refreshments,
but as the session will open at 2:30 p. m.,
and end In In good time for dining and at
tending the evening session at Odeon, it Is
believed that the tea offered during the
reception will be all that Is needed.
The art session occurs on tne evening or
the 14th. The chief feature will be an
Illustrated lecture on "Landscape In Poetry
and Palntmg." by Mrs. Kisie J. Hlattner.
This lecture Is a study of the development
of the modern feeling for Undtcape, aa ex
pressed In poetry and painting, and snows
some of the causes and Influences that
have made landscape a favorite theme of

Carmen
There Is such a beautiful lawless disre
gard of all of the seventeen sacred things
in the naughtiness of Carmen the dlsrs
gardful abandon which we commonplace
law-tamed mortals In certs In moments envy
so that wa all admire the capable wanton
and secretly wish her luck. And Don Jose
will keep a-hanglng around, and In the
last act gets his largest friendship from the
audience for holding the oold steel so well.
He should have sung "Back to the Woods"
early, when Carmen and the audience were
tired of him and have gone. Carman is
Ilka some of the good little books In the
Sunday school library wa all lova the bad
boy.
Rose Cecilia Shay makes bad that Is, a
good Carmen. She la wantonly wicked
right up to the limit, and sings the re
spectable gentlemen of Seville out of all
remembrance of publlo opinion. She had
not gained complete control of her voice
last night, but ths hoarseness waa only no
ticeable at intervals, and when It per
mitted, the audience were much pleaaed
with the quality of her contralto. Her
ong, "When Love Unfolds His Wings
Above You," gained hearty applause, and
her singing throughout, barring an oc
casional hoarse note, was very pleasing.
James Stevens as Escamlllo, the toreador,
sang well again, although he might per
haps have thrown a little more abandon
Into the lilting song of the toreador. The
chorus and ensemble In this song, however,
were excellent. The chorus has mora to
do than In soma of ths operas and sang
well, the cigarette song to the smoke In
the first act being specially good. A hear
ing of Blset's score with Its smashing cli
maxes makes the auditor regret that the
musician's early death cut us off from
more of this brand of muslo.
"Oeergla Camp Meeting0 at (he Krag.
An organisation of colorsd vocalists Is
giving an entertainment of music and
negro foolery at the Krug for the latter
half of the week under the nam of
"Georgia Camp Meeting." Among tho
numbers on the program are several songs
and choruses that have been made fa
miliar -by other singers and soma old-time
plantation ditties and negro hymns. Sev
eral of the company possess musical voices
of some training and the choruses, while
light In volume, are pleasing In tone. The
general aspect of the show Is not such as
warrants any suspicion that It will set the
river on lira at Its present stage. The
company will be at the Krug until after
Saturday night, with the usual Saturday
matinee.
Asaatear katta.t at the Orakeasa.
Ths amateur show given after the reg
ular bill at the Orpheum matinee Thursday
commanded mora serious consideration
than any that has been presented, three
out of the four acta being of such merit as
to escape a thought of ridicule, eaoh being
given by children who could scarcely help
but win sympathy from aa audience. The
Misses McCane and Oatsrllts. of about I
In years, danced prettily. Minnie Weber,
of but about two years farther along In
life, played the violin ootnmendably. Sing-
tog, dancing and corset playing by the
two Becker children showed them to be
talented and versatile. The one turn to
arouse the rlslbles was furnished by a
little colored boy, Walter Broomfleid. A
discordant orchestra accompaniment ex
ploded the aspirant's equanimity, which
brought forth storms of laughter
from the audience, but the lad succeeded
admirably in turning the Joke on Huster
and bis bunch, for be cam up Ilka a win
ner and let them play to suit themselves
down in their own little ysrd while ha
reeled off the steps apparently uncon
scious of their existence.

HOWARD JOINS OMAHA TEAM
Omaha Gets the) Center Fielder and
the Renrke Roster is New
Complete.
Howard, the hustling young outfielder se
cured by Papa Bill Rourke from Frank
Selee, arrived in Omaha from his home at
Mattoon, III., yesterday and will be sent
directly to Join the team at Colorado
Springs, wKefe7ie-v'lIpfay center-fTeld'TTt
the opening game on Sunday, f Howard Is
a big, husky boy, with unquestioned ability
as an outfielder and a good, free hitter.
His acquisition makes the Omaha roster
complete. Harry Welsh will be retained
on the team as a utility man and Jack
Thomas will very likely be used as the
change catcher under the circumstances,
for Welsh can play first base If Thomas Is
asked to go behind the bat.
