PURCHASE OF HtSE STARTS THE FUSS leoeal Dealer Insist that Home Market Has Been Ignored and Board Iaalats Its Actios Waa Well Taken. it appears the city council Is endeavor Ins to curtail the powers of the Fire and Police board. At Monday night's meet ing of the council a motion offered by Queenan was adopted to the effect that in the future the Fire and Police commission ers be required to confer with the fire and water committee of the council before buy ing or selling horses belonging to the city. At a recent tnectlng of the Fire and Police board three horses were sold for Z75 and one horse was purchased for $172.60. The members of the city council contend that the board has no right to dispose of horses without advertising for bids. No advertise ment for the sale of the three horses was printed In the official paper, the board Ig noring the council committee entirely. There soems to have ' been some dispute over the sale of the horses, one of the bidders declaring that preference had been shown to other bidders. The chief complaint seems to come from South Omaha people who are Interested in horses here. , Mr. Nixon of the board and Chief Garrett of the fire department went to Coming, la., and purchased a horse which Is now In service. Horsemen here liave declared to the council that a similar animal could have been bought here for the same price and complaint Is made that members of the board did not look over the horse market here before going ho Iowa to make a. purchase. More horses are needed by the fire de partment, and It Is the wish of the council that these animals be purchased here. The commissioners declare they acted In good faith when they sold three horses for 1275, and that the reason they went to Iowa to ' buy a horse was because there did, not seem to be suitable animals on sale at the yards here.

A wooden pole supporting a motor wire at Twentieth and Missouri Avenue broke yesterday and barely missed a passing car. While no one was injured the passengers In the car were frightened. Several of those on the car called upon the city authorities with the request that the street car company be compelled to put in Iron poles, or at least replace some of the old wooden poles with new ones. Iron poles are used for several blocks on Twenty fourth street, but It looks now as If tha council would order that wherever a wood en pole becomes decayed or broken an Iron one be substituted.

NOTES FROM DISTRICT COURT Judgment In Favor of City Given in Suit Brought on Grading: Contract. A decision of a good deal of Importance to the city was made by Judge Kennedy yesterday. He handed down findings for the city of Omaha in the case brought against It by G. Sam Rogers, who sued as assignee of certain grading contractors to collect from the municipality on war rants drawn on a speolaU Improvement fund. The court holds that plaintiff cannot re cover because certain specific charter re quirements were not observed by the mayor and city council In laying out the Improvement district and In letting the contract. It is held that people entering into contracts with the city are chargeable with having notice of the prerequisites nec essary to be complied with, and of the limi tation of the powers and duties of the city officers and the city council. Therefore plaintiff Is not entitled to recover. Judge Kennedy has overruled the city's motion for a new trial in the case of Waters, administratrix, against City of Omaha, and ordered judgment on the ver dict of the Jury, which waa In favor of the plaintiff for $2.6CO. Mrs. Waters Is the widow of a man who was killed by falling down an Insufficiently protected stairway leading from the sidewalk. Last October Judge Troup granted to Mary T. Schmidt a divorce from Joseph Schmidt on the ground of cruelty, and In lieu of alimony vested in her title to a cer tain lot owned by her husband. ' Yesterday Judge Troup made an order setting aside the previous decree, as stated, on motion of both parties, and dismissed the case. Joseph F. Wilson has flled suit for di vorce from Elms, M. WlUon. They were married at Osceola, la.,' In January, 1&S0. Myron O. Arnout, a boy who lost his left leg above the knee as the result of an ac cident on the street railway track at Twenty-fourth and C streets in South Omaha last November, has been paid $300 In settlement by the street railway com pany. The company denied any liability, as the accident seems to have been the re sult of the lad s negligence, and tha settle ment made was voluntary on Its part.

DRAKE SUCCEE1S MURPHY AT MERCHANTS Commrrrlal National Election Post poned Owlna; to the Illness of Its President and Absence of One Director. All the local banks are officered for an other year. The National banks. Includ ing those at South Omaha, held their elections yesterday. The other city banks. Including the one at Benson, have also elected their officers. Paramount interest centered In the election of officers for the Merchants National bank, of which Frank Murphy had heen the directing head and president for nearly twenty years. Interest In the situation was Increased by the rumor that Luther Drake, former cashier of the Institution, was in line of promotion and that he would very likely be elected. The conclusion was natural that If this selection were made It would be followed by promotions all along the official line. The surmlnes proved correct. The meeting of the stockholders was called about 3 o'clock and a board of directors wca elected. At the conclusion of this meeting the directors convened and the following were elected: For president, Luther Drake, formerly cashier; for vice president, Frank T. Hamilton, formerly assistant cashier; for assistant cashier, Fred Hamilton, formerly second assistant cashier; for- second assistant cashier, B. H. Melle, formerly chief clerk. The newly elected directors are John F. Coad, O. D. Rogers, Luther Drake, George E. Prlchett and Frank T. Hamilton. The change in president is the first among the larger Institutions here In sev eral years. Joseph Millard has been pres ident of the Omaha National bank for a period of twenty years, Herman Kountse has been president of the First National for over a quarter of a century, while Henry W. Yates haa been president of the Nebraska National since Its organlxa tlon. Luther Drake, who succeeds the late Frank Murphy as head of the Merchants' National, haa been with the bank about thirty-five years, and upon him has fallen many of the responsibilities of the Insti tution during the life of Frank Murphy. Mr. Drake, as well as the other officers in line of promotion, were the subjects of congratulation when the result of the election became known among business men and bankers. The office of cashier of the bank re mains to be filled. Changes at the t'nlon. Three changes occur In the directorate of the Union National bank. The di rectors elected are: O. Yf. Wattles, W. A.

Florence Bindley Is another of those who. being firmly established In public favor at the vaudeville houses, has decided to make a try at something more extensive than a fifteen-minute turn. She is most fortunate in the attempt, for she Is fitted with a play that allows the exhibition of the unques tioned talent that made her a strong card In her former undertakings, and yet does not tax her budding histrionic ability lie ynnd Its strength. Miss Bindley Is the heroine of the play now being offered at the Krug thenter. As such she Is asked to do more than Is expected of the heroine of the average "henrt Interest" drama. She must not only be Johnny-on-the-Spot in the frus tration of a very Ingeniously devised mess of villainy, looking sweet and girlish all the time, and acting womanly, but she muat -afford a great deal of Incidental entertain ment. She leads a clever quintet of "show girls" In musical selections In each not and performs cleverly on the xylophone, win ning much applause for her work. She is chnrmlngly natural In her role, as well. The company supporting Miss Bindley has been organised on a basis worthy of the star, and the result Is an exceedingly smooth and generally worthy entertain ment. Many more pretentious plays are of fered with less of genuine finish than this. A large audience witnessed the opening per formance of the piece at the Krug last night and showed Its appreciation by round after round of enthuslastlo applause. "The Street Singer" will be repeated at a matinee this afternoon and will close with the per formance this evening. "Davy Crockett" at the. Boyd. In behalf of Mr. James J. Jeffries, who essayed the role of Davy Crockett In the play made famous by the late Frank Mnyo, It may be Bald he gave the large throng of admirers who assembled at the Boyd last night a run for their money. No stretch of Imagination or truth would justify calling Mr. Jeffries an actor. He Is not, nor Is It at all likely that he ever will be, but he works just as hard In trying to be one as he does In punching the head off an opponent In a prise ring. Those who go to see him are hardly nctunted by any belief that they will see a dlwplay of artistic ability, but they are also disappointed by the fact that they do not see a boorish exhibition of con ceited Ignorance. While Jeffries has no talent as an actor he has gumption enough to prevent his making a fool of himself. His company Is well qualified to give life to the fine old border drama. The stay In Omaha was for the single performance. ETTA FILLM0RE IS MISSING Thirteen-Year-Old Girl Disappears and Search Falls to Disclose Her Whereabouts. Etta Fillmore has disappeared as com pletely as If she had faded Into air. Ef forts are being made by the Bureau of Associated Charities to find her, but at a late hour last night their efforts had been unavailing. The girl disappeared several days ago from her parents' home In the southeast part of the city. She Is described as slight of form and below the medium height for a girl of her age. She if 13 years old, has light hair and a dimple .In her left cheek. Sev eral days ago she told her parents that she Intended to go to work. She went out but did not -return. Her parents were making preparations to make an Im portant trip to a point north of Blair, and they delayed the trip for a time in the hope that the girl would return.

Liquozdne alone can do that, and the first bottle is free. Germ diseases are caused by germ at tacks, or by polftons which germs rreate. And they cannot be cured until the perms are killed. Medicine Is not for these troubles, because medicine cannot kill Inside germs. Every physician knows this. Llquogone alone can end the cause of a germ trouble.
