AFFAIRS it S0UTI1 OMAHA
Work On Missouri Arsntit it Procreariua;
Moit Favorably.
PACKING HOUSE MEN GO TO WORK LAPLY
As a Resalt Only One Heat Preetre
tlea Reported I p t the Present
Bids an Sewer, Work to
Cense t Monday.
The work on Missouri avenue Is pro
gressing as satisfactorily aa the resi
dent along that thoroughfare could do
sire and In a comparatively short time
the contractor will be ready to begin the
work of paving a well aa the placing of
the curbing and guttering.
In anticipation of a speedy completion
of the work the Omaha A Council Bluffs
Street Railway company have put a
large force of men at work repairing the
track and finishing the work of laying
the heavy steel rails to Twenty-fourth
street. The work has been completed as
far as Twentieth and but for the unset
tled tat of affair which surrounded
the paving would have been completed
many weeks ago. It has now been com
pleted aa far aa Twenty-fourth street on
one side and next week will see the other
side finished.
If there I any further delay to the
paving It will be because tha city will
want to put in a sewer system for the
vast amount of water that is thrown from
Twenty-fourth street onto the avenue at
the Junction of the two streets. '
"If sewers are not put In," said City
Engineer Rohrbough, recently, "It will
be useless to pave the avenue, especially
between Twentieth and Twenty-fourth
street, because the water from the latter
street will soon put It out of repair."
Start Early at Parkin; Houses.
On- account of the extreme heat of tha
last few dnya many of the packing houso
employes have been going to their work
1 an earlier hour than usual and quitting
as much earlier as possible. Some of tho
employes have not been working at all
during the hottest part of the day, pre
ferring to loose a few hours' pay than
to run the risk of becoming overheated
and have to lose several daya. So far
there has been but one prostration, and
that was at the Swift plant In the boiler
room where the heat waa so excessive that
one of the firemen was overcome and had
to leave. He will not be out for some,
time.
Sewer Bids Monday Nlarht.
The time of the councilman will be taken
up at the meeting tomorrow night with the
opening and tabulating of bid for the new
sewer system, and it Is thought probable
that there will be no other business trans
acted than this.
Although at the present time there are
no bids In the hands of the city clerk. It
Is a certainty that a number of bid will
be In by tomorrow night from firms who
were not represented at the opening of the
bids which were rejected two week ago.
City Engineer Rohrbough ha been using
hi best efforts tu secure bids from parties
who had made Inquiries when the first
advertisements were placed, but who did
not make bids. It Is thought that these
parties will be represented tomorrow night.
Most of the bidders will submit their bids
on the evening of the meeting.
Golf at Conntry Club.
Preparations are under way by the mem
bers of the South Omaha country club for
a golf tournament to be held during the
firat part of September and the member
are looking forward to the event with much
pleasure,- a It will settle- definitely the u
perlority, of tho different players, there
being at thla time- strong rivalry between
some of them. Just who the best players
are would be hard to say, as there are
about ten who are playing a fine game con
sidering the course, which Is a hard one,
being all up hill and down.
Those who are playing the best game are
G. A. Potter, El V. Arnold. J. W. Tlbbetts.
G. W. Bears, W. E. Bollen, Dr. W. A. Cox,
Mike Culkln, D. S. Clark and W. C. Lam
bert. These players are all making the
nine holes In 47, which I bogey for the
course.
The contest will be for member of the
club only, but will create much Interest
a though It was open to all comers.
At about the same time as tne golf tour
nament a tennis contest will be pulled off.
It will be open to all players in the city.
O. A. Potter Is the most formidable player
at the game and will more than likely
prove his sblllty sgalnst the best players
of the city who do not belong to the club.
Some of these are playing a very high class
game and a surprise Is undoubtedly In store
for the champion of the club. Potter should
put up a good game In that at the recent
tournament at tne umaha Field club he
gave Scrlbner a scare such aa he haa not
had In ome time by winning a game, a-L j
other sport at the club have reached a
high standard and the coming months will
see good games In all branches If the In
tentions of the club sre carried out.
