. An unusually quiet state of trade pre
vails ai.'.ong tne real estate fraternity, ac
OorUIng u reports of many. All are doing
some buMneoa, but the summer lull has
Come, and Is In marked contrast to the
activity of a mmth or lo ago. It Is pre
dicted that It will continue until Septem
ber. Few big deals will be pulled oft In
the summer months, unless this year
proves the exception, say the dealers. Kufct
rn capital Is very Inactive In Omaha at
present. This Is for the reason that the
Investors of the east close up their offices
when hot weather comes and go away lor
the summer. When the cool weather of
the fajl comes they will return to their
affloes, and Omaha real estate will feci
the influence of their Inquiries.
Of Interest to those who have bought,
property in the West Farnam business
district In the last few months Is the an
nouncement by F. V. Wead that plans will
be In the hands of contractors this week
for the building to be erected by Mr. Wead
and II. II. Boldrlge at the northeast cor
ner of Twentieth and Farnam. Blgn boards
have been torn down on the lot and the
fruit stand there Is to be removed at once.
The building will embrace five stores, all
of which have been leased. It will be
sixty-six feet on Farnam street and Vit
feet on Twentieth street, and will be but
one-story In height, though walls and foun
dation will be made heavy enough that two
more stories may be added when It Is
deemed advisable.
Florence Heights Is the latest suburban
project to be exploited, George ft Co. hav
ing announced within the last week the
opening to th market of the new sub
division of Florence. The property con
sists of eighty acres on the hills in the
north part of the town of Florence, wlthlu
the corporate limits, and It has been di
vided Into sixteen tracts lor saie. eux
ales have been made as follows: Bert C.
Fowler, ten acres; Thomas D. Crano, ten
acres i J. H. Harvty. eight acres; Mr. Parks
of Florence, two and one-half acres; 3. O.
Russell of Florence, two and one-half
acres. Borne will build summer homes and
others will make the purchases places of
permanent residence. Florence and vicinity
Is a popular place for summer residence,
and the new subdivision immediately ad
joins the country pieces of Myron X
Learned and Henry Wyman.
One man who built store oo Farnam
street, west of Eighteenth, not many
months ago will In future be chary about
leasing his stores before they are built.
He leased one store before the building
operations were begun, and the tenant
shortly after moving In was offered IS5
a month for his lease, which was $20 more
than he had paid. Another tenant In the
same row of stores wss offered $2,000 for
Ms five-year less. Buoh la said to be the
Increase in rental values In the last fsw
months. Either that, or the owner In
question was ..too modest In his demands.

said a member of the committee on ar
rangements. George O. Wallace returned from the
state Sunday school convention at York
last week enthusiastic over Nebraska farm
lands. After talking with representatives
from fifty-three counties of the state, Mr.
Wallace came to the conclusion that the
effects of the dry weather before the re
cent rains had been terribly exaggerated
and that the only crop injured was oats,
and that only In some localities and to
no considerable extent. He decided that
fine crop conditions prevail in the stats In
general. The growing corn, oats and wheat
between York and Omaha is beautiful,
says Mr. Wallace. Mr; Wallace says that
on account of the generous rains this
spring In tho extreme western counties
more activity In farm lands in that sec
tion of the state is experienced than ever
before.
Cuming street property has been pushed
for sale lately by two or three real estate
companies, and efforts have brought re
sults. Most of the activity la In the dls
trlot west of Twenty-fourth street, which
has shown little development In recent
years. Asked, as to the cause, the realty
men say the development of the city has
causod rental values to Increase. and
property values on Cuming street were low
in Comparison with rentals.
N, P. Dodge & Co. report the following
recent sales In the West Cuming district:

perate fascination too strong to be thrown

hardihood and contempt, too, and he who

There la room and call on the sphere for
all qualities and talents a man can
possess, and, like the problem of wealth,
the difficulty lies In their distribution, not
their existence. Think of this hard enough
and you can make yourself believe that
evil is not and that only Improper uses,
carry malignance in their train. Oosslp is
universally condemned, yet if there were
no gossip none would rare whether his
brother lived or died; whether be suffered

brotherhood of man idea would be beyond

until It hung In tatters, or never float, as
the case may be, It there were not some

himself serf of the mountain and tun

A single human life today is worth more
than ever before. Since Christ taught the
value of a five human body. It has been
Judged higher and higher by society, year
by year and century by century. Refined
audiences used to see beasts eat men and
deem it fine sport. Kings slew them to
make or break thrones at tbelr own sweet
pleasure. In some places It is still good
to die for Mohammed, and still good to
dlf for kings, and it has been really only
since Dr. Gullliton Invented a machine for
slicing off the head of Louis XIV that the
tillers of the soil and the 'laborers for
wage threw off these habits. Today we
have contests against child slavery and
unsanitary work rooms and long hours
and the driving of women beyond their
strength. There are another phase and go
ha.id In band with surgery, pathology and
hospitals. Pure food laws and poisoning
by drugs; scandsls from the preparation
of foods; bacteriological examination of

movement for universal peace and no more

estimated higher than ever before?

MAE WOOD CASE DISMISSED
Lavst of the Sensational Salts Brought
In Douglas County Is
TTiro
Oat.
The last of the sensational cases brought
by Mae C. Wood growing out of her al
leged relations with Senator Piatt of New
York was ulsmlssed Saturday morning by
Judge Bears for want of prosecution. This
case was against William Loeb, secretary
to President Roosevelt, J. Martin Miller
and Robert J. Wynne, consul general at
lndon. She demanded J. 15,000 because she
alleged the defendants had conspired to
take from her a bunch of love letters writ
ten by Senator Piatt.
John W. Batttn, who represented Mr.
Loeb, did not enter his appearance, as no
service was had on the defendants. The
other two coses were dismissed recently for
the same cause.
Mis Wood has recently broken loose In
Colon, Wis., her old home. She now threat
ens to bring suit for a part of Senator
Piatt's estate, asserting she was legally
married to him. She says she has a mar
riage certificate which she threatens to
spring.
District Clerk Frank A. Broadwell has
filed his answer to tho mandamus suit In
which the county Is seeking to require htm
to pay into the treasury 14,500 he received
as a member of the insanity commission.
The answer declares he has paid over to
the county all fees earned as clerk of the
district court and has made a complete set
tlement with the county, the settlement be
ing in full of all money due him from hla
first term. He says he has filed claims for
his fees as member of the insanity com
mission and they have been allowed and no
appeal taken by the county.
Mr. Broadwell holds he is not required
by law to account -for these fees and the
case was started to test the law.

Dweller in cities seldom think of the

the first place, they are too busy with their
own affairs, and in the second their sense
of proportion of material things is dulled.
They have formed different impressions of

that a mile in the city seems two or even

to ten stories. Once In Omaha the high
school grounds seemed on the edge of

IT WILL BE THE SAME OLD TOWN
Exultant Note of Hope, Courage and
Confidence Telegraph Companies
Arraigned Life Vnder Hard
ship Well Worth Living.
The routine of life In San Francisco Is
slowly approaching normal conditions. The
bread line Is down to 13,000 and the number
is diminishing daily as the avenues of em
ployment Increase. Of course a long time
must elapse before conditions will equal
those before the disaster. Rebuilding and
restoration takes time. Meanwhile tempo
rary shelter Is equal to the demand and
temporary buildings for business and work
shops are going up under high pressure
night and day. The greatest and most
aggravating obstacle to progress Is the
action of insurance companies in delaying
and contesting losses. Were these claims
paid It is confidently believed every able
bodied man in the city would be given
employment, building projects now In
abeyance would move forward and the
bread line practically disbanded.
An Emergency Measnge.
To disabuse the public mind of the idea
that the disaster to 8an Francisco was
caused by an earthquake, the passenger
department of the Southern Pacific rail
road has Issued a folder for general dis
tribution and enlightenment. The Bee has
been favored with several copies. The
title, "Ban Francisco The Imperishable," is
attractive and Impressive. Two large
panoramic pictures of the city are printed
in It one from a photograph taken on the
morning after the earthquake, showing the
comparatively insignificant damage caused
by the shakedown; the other shows the
ruined city after the fire had completed
its work. "Tidings of San Francisco's
troubles traveled fast," says the editor of
the folder, "and it was Inevitable In the
face of the excitement which naturally
resulted In myriads of unfounded stories of
disaster, that many exaggerated reports of
the horror of the situation were sent
oflooked like files clambered out of the scaf
folding on tho tower of the New York Life
building to fix the roof, and the sight of
workmen reglldlng the spire of the Swedish
Lutheran church at Eighteenth and Cass
streets drew no crowds. It Is only when a
camera Is trained on these things that they
seem at oil extraordinary to the man on
the street. But let him be the one who
climbs aloft, and with a few Inches of
timber between his feet and a prospective
grease spot on the pavement, swings a
hamer or a paint brush, 'and it becomes a
very different story.
Pay la Also Good.
There Is not enough work of this kind
In Omaha to keep many men busy, or, in
fact, to give any number occupation all
the time. For especially difficult Jobs
steeple Jacks are Imported. The steeple of
St. Phllomena's cathedral was reduced by
one a few years ago. For ordinary under
takings s few workmen, mostly painters
and roofers, can be found here to tackle the
Job.

abroad. The one object of this present
emergency message from the publicity de
partment of the Southern Pacific company
is to tell, clearly, If not in detail, not
only the sum of San Francisco's misfor
tune, but to echo the note that has been
sounding ever since these days of distress,
of hope and courage nnd confidence, that
San Francisco is by no means destroyed,
that the lessons taught by Chicago and
Baltimore and our other Qreswept cities
have not been lost here, and, most em
phatically, that fire, terrible and unchecked,
and not those forty-three seconds of the
earth's trembling, was responsible for the
tremendous damage, loss and destruction."
The Name Old Town.
The San Francisco Call is back in its old
quarters in the towering Bprecklos build
ing, which withstood both quake and flame,
and looks out upon the surrounding debris
with the cheer of an optimist. Editorially
the Call says the reconstructed city will
be the same old Ban Francisco, as regards
the business center. "In a majority of
cases," says the Call, "the walla of the
bank buildings resisted both earthquake
and fire, and It has been comparatively
easy to clear the old banking rooms of
debris and fit them up for banking pur
poses. The banking of San Francisco is
now being done on the same premises
where it has been carried on for years
and where in all probability It will be
carried on for years to come.
"The rebuilding of the Palace hotel along
line suggestive of the old establishment
will, too, do much to give the new San
Francisco the character of the old. For
more than thirty years the Palace hotel
has been a landmark, and a notable one.
Strangers starting on a visit to California
have been given their bearings with the
Palace as a starting point. ' The traveling
world, as well as the San Francisco world,
has been accustomed to look for the
Palace, and they will do so In the future.
To many, the old hotel restored, San
Francisco will not seem so greatly changed
after all.
"And neither will the restored city be
greatly changed. The majority of the large
buildings that gave the old city distinction
and character still stand, and will soon be
completely restored. Buildings which, like
the Emporium and the Palace, will have to
be pulled down, will be rebuilt as fast as
enterprise and energy, backed by unlimited
wealth, can do the work. The new San
Francisco will be a better built city, a more
Life and Limb
The pay for such hazards Is two or three
and even more times that of the ordinary.
Most of the Intrepid souls who dare to
mount to tho shaky and Insecure regions
are old-time sailors. Herman Cromwell, a
Janitor at the court house, Is one. For
years he painted the stacks at the Union
Pacific shops. Another painter who has
not been stumped by anything found in
Omaha is named Howard. His son, Jesse,
Is a youth of 17, who was a chronic truant
from school. One day some one was wanted
to paint the flagpole on a high downtown
building and Jesse responded. His success
seemed to give him new ideas and he quit
playing truant. Since then he has out
grown the school age and now works with
his father.
There are no medals In the business, and
some widows, but newspapers are not called
upon to carry want ads. for painters, roof,
era or b- Uders to shove structures hundreds
of feet above ground and have them look
well after they have their comparatively

modern city than the old, but It will still
be San Francisco, with the same character
istics that distinguished it In the past."
golcldes Decrease.
That those who pulled through the quake
and flame and subsequent hardship find life
sweet and well worth living Is attested by
the record of the morgue. Before the eurth
quake and fire the morgue was the deposi
tary of an average of from ten to twelve
suicides each week. Many of these unfor
tunates enme from the dance halls of the
Borbary Coast, some from the higher class
tenderloin resorts along Ellis and Mason
streets, and others from all parts of the
residence section of the city. Love affairs,
discouragements and financial reverses
seemed to be the principal causes for leav
ing the gns Jets open or swallowing a
goodly dose of carbolic arid.
There have been only three suicides since
the earthquake. These sixty days would,
had It not been for tho disaster been pro
ductive of about ninety suicidal deaths, ac
cording to the average made out In the
coroner's office. Yet only three have de
cided to call curtains en their life's play
one by gas. one by carbolic acid and one by
the loaded pistol route.
Telegraph Companies Condemned.
The grand Jury of Sun Francisco has Is
sued a report arraigning the telegraph com
panies for charging full rates on messages
received during and following the fire,
many of which were forwarded by mull.
The report Is so severe that it will be euro
to Injure the business of the Western
Union, and, In a lesser degree, that of the
Postal company. The report shows that
the Western Union had only two eastern
wires on the days of the fire and thnt tho
government monopolized one of these and
the Southern Pacific Railroad company the
other. The Jury also declares that the
Western Union sent out only two linemen
to repair its wires near San Francisco,
trusting to the railroad company to do this
work. The Jury advises all who sent dis
patches and suffered delay to bring damage
suits against the Western Unipn company.
