"II II PASSING OF LITTLE ITALY Equlii Italia lection Ewept A way la March of Indutrial Progmt RESIDENTS VAINLY rilE PROTEST Heme tow Mr Vomm Year. rhe existence of dirty, crowded and picturesque Little Italy la within two weeks of an end, and Bulldlna Inspector Wlthnell and hla assistants are being; kept awake DlfhU by fear of the Black Hand. . . Omaha's Italian quarter for forty years baa been within the district bounded by eighteenth and Twentieth streets. Pierce and the Union Pacific tracks. Ten years aso the colony held several hundred sons and daughters of the south of Europe, but during the last decade little by little the frail shanties have fallen to pieces or been torn down and the Inhabitants moved into better quarters as they became more used to American civilization and more' pros perous. The result Is that now only sev enteen of the ramshackle domiciles remain to be torn down to clear the path for Im provement and commercialism, aet In vig orous motion In this part of the city by the Great Western railway. Of th seven teen shacks only three are pronounced in good enough condition to be removed by the building Inspector. The others must be rased and put entirely out of business. This order, which went forth two weeks ago, caused much consternation among the denlsens of IJttle Italy and they have Stormed the building department. The final demolition of Little Italy was brought aboxrt by the determination of Herman Kountza to oiear the land, which u owuea ny ut KUxa.be tb Konntxe estate, for trackage and Industrial property. The denizens of the quarter have held tannr of the ground by leases only, but Mr. Kountse, one of the wealthiest men of Omaha, did not feel equal to the task of casting out the Italians and appealed to the city for aid. Having right and might on its side the minions of the law descended and deeplte the obstacles related have got the business of -eviction and destruction well under way. The natural decline of the quarter helped out the task. In the old days nearly every Italian In the city of meagre circumstances lived In Little Italy. The buildings were put up as cheaply as possible and were collected along typical narrow and dirty lanes. Narrow Eseape from poisoning, caused by constipation, had Mrs. Young. Clay City, N. Y.

Considerable difference of opinion seems to exist regarding the compensation of those who acted as Judges and clerks at the primary election on September 19. Claims have been filed by those who acted as registrars for 3 each and also for the same amount for serving as Judges and clerks of the primary. Some of the election officers appointed by the mayor and council failed to qualify and of courso no attention will be paid to such claims. Section 17 of the primary act provides that registrars are to be paid at the rate of 3 each, but that no extra compensation Is to be allowed for the registrars acting aa judges of primary election. This matter of compensation Is to be taken up with the county officials this week and straight ened out ln some way. It Is thought that possibly the county can be Induced to pay a portion of the amount due the regis trars. Those who served on the primary board expected to be paid U each for counting the primary votes and also 3 for holding the registration. Whether the primary act will be strictly adhered to ln the matter of compensation Is the question that Is worrying the election officer.. On election day there will be no diffi culty about the pay of the election board, as the city v.1ll pay 13 each to the judges and clerks for counting the vote on the sewer bond proposition, while the county will be expected to pay its portion of the general election expenses. There Is a great deal of dissatisfaction over the ract that the primary act does not permit of com pensation for keeping the tally on the vote cast at the primaries. Those who qualified and served are Intending to make an effort to secure $6 for the day s work. Pvl City Hall Boada. City Clerk Glllln and City Attorney Lam bert each received letters from W. J ft Son, the purchasers of the $80,000 Twenty- luurm street paving bonds, yesterday. These letters merely acknowledged th. r. celpt of additional data asked for along with the statement that the data had been submitted to the attorneys for the bankers. No Intimation was given as to the nmiuhi. decision of the attorneys as to the legality of the issue. Hayes Bona notified the elty officials that the twenty days' limit In tho contract bad been stricken out by them, as their attorneys could not possibly pass on the legality of the Issue in that time. The mayor and council then extended tne time ten days, so that a decUlon is ex pected not later than October 15. However. Hayes eV Sons have not paid any attention to this extension of time, merely resting on their statement that the time limit In which a decision should be given had been erased from the contract they made with the city. Last Monday City Attorney Lambert wrote Hayes A Bona regarding the city hall bonds and giving the decision of Judge Bears. A reply was expected Saturday, but In the letters received no mention wax made of the city hall or park bonds. This is taken as aa Indication that Ueys 80ns do not care to have anything to do with either the city hall or park bonds aa long as the liti gation continues. Attorney Breea of Oman has made the statement that he is prepar- lng-to take an appeal from Judge Sears' de clslon to the Supreme court. This will tie the proposed issue of city hall and park bonds up for some months yet. No Word from McOowan. Up to the time the city offices closed Saturday no word had been received from John Mcdowan the contractor who Is ex pected to set the curbing on Missouri avenue. The contract with McQowan for this curbing and the bond was approved on March 13, of this year. Under the con tract McOowan was to commence work within ten days after receiving notice from the city authorities. Written notice waa not served on McOowan until September 1 This is just ninety-six days after the contract calls for the completion of the work. Since Mc Oowan entered Into the contract with the city the wholesale price of cement has advanced 27 cents a barrel. Labor Is scarce and teams are hard to get even at $3.50 per day. The delay In starting the work after the curbing and paving contracts were let waa that the case was tied up in the courts and the money for the bonds, fSS.OOO, oould not be secured, until the case had been de cided. Now that the money la on deposit the city is paying Interest on the bonds, without securing any benefits. Possibly the city council will take some action Monday night. In case McOowan does not begin work, the contract for curbing may be let to someone else. General Teachers' Meetlag.

The remedy Is in the form of pleasant tasting tablets or loscnges, containing vege table and fruit essences, pure aseptic pep sin (government test), golden seal snd diastase. Tha tablets are sold by droughts under the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab lets. Many Interesting experiments to test ths digestive power of Stuart's Tablets show that one grain of the active principle contained In them ia sufficient to thor oughly digest 1,000 grains of raw meat, ran and other wholesome food. Stuart's Tablets do not act upon ths bowels like after dinner pllla and cheap cathartics, which simply irritate and in flame tha Intestines without having any effect whatever ln digesting food or curing indigestion. It the stomach can be rested and assisted in the work of digestion it will very soon recover its normal vigor, as no organ la so much abused and overworked aa tha stomach. This is the secret, If there is any secret, of the remarkable success of Stuart's Dys pepsia Tablets, a remedy practically un known a few years ago and now the moit widely known of any treatment for stom ach weakness. This succ has been secured entirely upon its merits as a digestive pure and simple, because there can be no stomach trouble If the food la promptly digested. Stuart's Dyspepsfa Tablets act entirely on the food eaten, digesting It completely, so that It can be assimilated Into blood, nervs and tissue They cure dyspepsia, water brash, sour stomach, gas and bloating after meals, because they furnish the digestive power which weak stomachs lack, and un less that lack Is supplied it is useless to at tempt to cure by the use of "t.fnlcs," "pi"" and cathartics which have abso lutely no digestive posver. Stuart's DyspepaoU Tablets can be found at ail drug stores and tha regular use of one or two of them after meals wd dem- onstrau their merit better thaa aa argtuncoc i J
