The Ulble, ancient history, the civic admin istration and all of the ancient and hon orable, " and the new and up-to-date pro prieties and authorities were appealed to aad quoted and burlesqued to make a real estate men's holiday. The result was certainly the greatest of tho dinners given by the , exchange. The tranxfer of food from the Commer cial club to the real estate men began at about 7 o'clock. A tip had bcn circulated that the dinner was to begin lit 6:30 o'clock, so that the bunch by doing the early bird act for some half an hour caught an ex cellent appetite. It Is safe to say the same number of men which was, by the way, ninety-seven has seldom carried more ap petite Into the dining room of the club.

Tukey lit the act of giving way to his habit of eating things, and Carried him off under his (King's) arm. I). (I. Patterson In a tremb ling voice then told the old, old story of how Mr. Tukey had had a J10 lot ten miles from the poatofflce and how the, city h.nd put down a .136 permanent sidewalk and how. Mr. Tukey, considering the city had confiscated his property, had not kept the permanent wulk clear of snow. President Wallace took the chance when the copper had his arms full of Tukey to make an opening hddress. In explaining why he had such pleasure In welcoming the members of the exvhiuige, he pointed out tha the last year had been a good jrear for most of them and for the city f Omaha, which all ef Its people loved. He doubted If any other men were so closely united with the upbuilding of a city and besought them to do all they could In the coming year', whlclv was in effect to be a stcmwlnder.

Six new members were taken In at the meeting of the club last night, ajid a stimulus was given the meeting by a smoker and other r.fr.nhm.nta vhh j candy predominating. The committee on street Improvements reported that during the winter the streets looked fairly well under their covering of snow, but the thawing weather had again uncovered the hole and showed the leuky conditions of the sidewalks. However, a number of much needed street crossings have been put In, for which the district is very grateful to the powers that be, and the hope was fervently expressed that the good work would be continued. A. F. Wilson, a new member, was added to the sidewalk committee, and William Bchneckenberger, another new member, was added to the light committee. The present membership of the club now exceeds sixty, and the membership Is con stantly IncreHsIng as a result of extend ing the limits of the district. Street car matters were again talked over, and the determination of the club to secure the Harney Mreet extension from Parker te Maple street on Thirty-third street is still mitnirem. and Its agitation will contlnuo until it Is accomplished. An invitation was extended to Comp troller Lobe.-k and Councilman Evans to attend the next meeting of the club. The question f the resuscitation of the Federation of Improvement Clutw waS favorably dlwuxaed and the club proposes te take the Initiatory in the mutter at once. After the regular business session an hour was sient in a gtuieial talk for the good or the dlxtrlct, which whs partlclatcd in hy all the members. lunst Constant OH stock. 301 N. T. Ufs.
