bnt Contractor Will Attead
to It at Once.
What Inscription tha cornerstone of the
Carnegie library building shall bear iy still
an' unsettled question among the member
of the Board of Trustees. The committee
to which the matter had been referred In
the hopes of a solution of the vexatious
question reported at tho meeting of the
board last night that it desired further
time, and ita request waa granted;
The committee to which was entrusted
the arrangements for the laying of the
cornerstone made Its report and was duly
thanked for the .efficient manner la which
the exercises had been carrlel out.
The contracts for the plumbing, electric
lighting and heating of the new library
building have not been signed as yet, as
the contractors apparently did not seem
to understand that payment was to be
made from tha the Carnegie fund and that
the board waa In no casu responsible for
the liability. This being explained to the
contractors, the papers will be signed this
week.
It waa decided that notice be given Land
lord Merrlam of the Merrlam block that
the rooms' occupied at present by the public
library would bo vacated the moment the
new building was completed.

leased the Jensen and Hansen tracts. The
Well finished "some weeks ago for John

ished flow and of a volume as greqt, if not
greater,, than that of the company well.
At near the finishing point in this well
a flow of gaa was seoured with the water,,
but no. effort was made to ascertain Its
volume. It was shut off by the 'casing.
The flow of water was secured a a depth
of about 500 feet Tho well on tho Kau

successful termination is somewhat in
doubt. At a depth - of 500' feet the water
rose to within a few feet of the surface
and the subsequent depth, since attained
has so far failed to bring tho water above
the surface. It Is reported that a small
quantity of oil and a thin vcln-of coal were

WOUAM ill CLUB AND CHARITY
The extension committee of the Young
Women's Christian association has planned
to enlarge Its work this year to Include
branches that have never been covered In
Omaha. This was decided at the meeting
of the committee Saturday aftvrnoon. In
the past the extension secretary has given
much of her time to the work In the cen
tral rooms, but this year only the morn
ings, will be occupied there. Noon mcetlngi
have been held and literature distributed
at M. E. Smith's and Byrne-Hammer's, and
It is the Intention to include several other
factories this winter. Assistance will be
required from outside for this speakers to
talk to the young women in the factories
oh current toplca at noon, singers and peo
ple to give magaxlnes and periodicals and
to help distribute them. There Is espeulal
need of the extension work In the extreme
south part of the city, and this, too, may
be taken up before the close of the yenr..
The work at South Branch is to be
strengthened, too, and a special feature
will be made of the social side of the as
sociation. A new tennis club has been or
ganised and a good court Is at the disposal
of the members. Friday evening of this
week a rally of members has been called
at the branch for a discussion of work
and plans for the winter. Tuesday even
ing, October 11, has been announced for the
format opening. There will be a program
and announcements of the year's work will
be made. Miss Flora Tlcknow will be In
charge of the work.
The United Daughters of the Confederacy
will hold their eleventh annual convention
at St. Louis October 4 to 8, and it is said
that at that lime one of the chief projects
wl'l be the carrying out of the suggestion
of a Charleston woman to erect a monu
ment to the faithful slaves who stood by
their masters' families during the war.
This proposition has occasioned much com
ment and not a little adverse criticism,
the more practical women, especially tho'e
of the north who do not share the sentl-'
nient, feel that there Is more need of
helping the present generation of negroes
than of such expensive expressions of
gratitude to the dead, .faithful though they
were, and many of the women of the
south share this opinion. Still others com
ment that, as the Daughters of the Con
federacy Is entirely a sentimental organiza
tion, the monument proposition Is quite In
keeping with the work It has done In the
past. - - .
Upon Mrs. Philip N. Moore of St. Louis,
first vloe president of the Genera! Federa
tion, has been conferred the highest honor
in the powers of the officials of the 8t,
Louis exposition to give a woman in ap
pointing her a member of' the superior
Jury of the World's fair. Mrs. Moore , is
among the best known club women In St.
Louis and Missouri and as president of the
local biennial board had much to do with
making the recent biennial of the General
Federation a success. In addition to her
position in the club world, Mrs. Moore Is
one of the trustees of Vassar college and
president of the Association of Collegiate
Alumnae.
The program for the October meeting of

A distressing case of Fibroid Tumor,
which baffled the skill of Boston doctoics.
Mrs. Hayes, of Boston, Mass., in
the following letter tells how she was
cured, after everything else failed, by
Lydia E Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
Mra. Hayes First Letter Appealing to Mrs. Pinkliam for Help I
"Dkar Mrs. Pixkham: I hnve been under Boston doctors' troafr
ment for a long time without any reliet They tell me I have a fibroid
tumor. I cannot sit down without great pain, and the norenesa extends
up my spine. I have bearing-down pains both back and front. Jly ab
domen is swollen, and I have had flowing spells for three years. My ap
petite Is not good. 1 cannot walk or bo on my feet for any length of time.
"The symptoms of Fibroid Tumor given in your little book ac
curately describe my case, so I write to you for advice." (Signed) Mrs
E. F. IIayes, 202 Dudley bt, (I ioxbury) Boston, Mass. , .. . . v .
Note the result of Mrs. Pinkham's advice al
though she advised Mrs. Hayes, of Boston, to take
her medicine- which she knew would help, her
her letter contained a mass of additional instruc
tions as to treatment, all of which helped to bring
about the happy result.
"Dear Mrs. Pinkham: Sometime ago I wrote to you describ
ing my symptoms and asked your advice. You replied, and I followed
all your directions carefully, and to-day I am a well woman.
. " The use of Lydia E. Pink horn's Vegetable Compound entirely
expelled the tumor and strengthened my whole system. I can walk
mues now.
"JLydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is worth five dol
lars a drop. I advise all women who are afflicted with tumors or
female trouble of any kind to give it a faithful triaL" (Signed) Mrs.
E. F. IIayes, 252 Dudley St, (Roxbury) Boston, Mass. -
Mountains of gold could not purchase such testimony or take
the place of the health and happiness which Lydia K. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound brought to Mrs. Hayes.
Such testimony should be accepted by all women, as convincing
evidence that Lydla E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound stands
without a peer as a remedy for all the distressing ills of women ; all
ovarian troubles; tumors; inflammations; ulceration, falling and dis
placements of tha womb ; backache ; irregular, suppressed or painful '
menstruation. Surely the volume and character of the testimonial let
ters we are daily printing in the newspapers can leave no room for doubt.
. Mrs. Hayes at her above address will gladlv answer, any letters
which ""sick women may write for fuller information about her illness.
Her gratitude to Mrs. Pinkham and Lydla E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is so'genuine and heartfelt that she thinks no trouble is too
peat for her to talierin return for her health and happiness.
Truly is it said that it is Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
