Catarrh of autumn Is likely to assume a systemic character, that Ir, the Internal orfrana of the whole' nysUni txH-oine sllijlitly itffected, producing a cou ditlon closely resembling chronic malaria. Sometimes an epedeinlc of ('atarrlial fever will frreviule a locality, lmnlatlng Typhoid fever. It is sometimes difficult to dlHtlnguinh between catarrhal fever and the genuine Typhoid. A congested condition of the bronchial tubes producing a cough, with the usual symptoms of a cold, are frequently associated with systemic catarrh. A cold or a rough during the autumn season has special sig nificance and Pernua should be promptly used according to the direc tiona to be found on each bottle. Peruna is not only a preventive, but m reliable remedy for systenic catarrh. Does QUALITY Count with You?

Ths work has as;ln ceased by order of Contractor Hugh Murphv. Turing the last week no work has been done because of the heavy rains. hut It now appears that the contractor evidently expected another estimate from the meeting of the council of Thursday evening. He called up the city clerk from Lincoln during the" afternoon and asked If there was a warrant there for him. On learning that there was none ho appeared to grow angry and said: "Those fellows havs rrogram to carry out and they haven't done It." The clerk replied that he knew of no program. "That's all right." said Mr. Murphy, "they came and begged tne to begin the work and old me what they would do. I'm done. ' I won't turn a wheel." The city engineer declared that over fT.OtH) had been allowed (or ths paving already, which was fully as much as the work done and In addition the value of the material which has been plied on the ground. He said: "Mr. Murphy has had every estimate he has aaked for." . It appears that there Is an understanding, tacit at least, between the mayor and ths contractor to the effect that the latter was to receive weekly estimates, not only on what work was actually dona during the week, but also on what he Intended to ac complish the following week. Perhaps It Is this feature which Is troubling Mr. Murphy at present. This could not bs verified as Mayor Hoctor left last night for St.. Louis and will not be back for a week. The attitude of the council, as exhibited on the presentation of the three former estimates, has Indlcsted that they were not well acquainted with the agreements which were to Insure the speedy pavement of Missouri avenue. Borne of them have been Inclined to Question whether or not the estimates were not In excess of the work done. Kffotts will be made to get a fair understanding, but the paving will prob ably be hung up at least until the. mayor returns. Howe to Hie for Salary. K. I Howe, former city treasurer, has announced his intention ot suing the city for $111.11. which amount represents to him the alleged unpaid balance -of salary due him. The bill arose In the final settlement of the affairs of his office preparatory to retiring In favor of the democratic Incumb ent. Most of the new officials took their offices about April 17, but In the case of the treasurer, Mr. Howe served In the office until Anrll SO. on which dsts the present treasurer receipted him for all the j funds In the treasury and afterward took charge of the office. Previous to this date, though the deputy wss In the ofBcs con stantly and the treasurer was there dally, Mr. Howe was the offlclnl Incumbent, or so It Is claimed by his attorney. His nam was affixed to al) tax receipts and other official papers requiring the signature of the city treasurer. On this hoi bases his claim for a full month's pay of fl.8. The council allowed him loo. 65, leaving a bal. ance of 1111.11. The council further al lowed C. X. Melcher, the Incoming treas urer, the 1111.11, being the portion of tha month's salary due after April 15. Mr. Howe and his attorney are confident that they can collect the salary In question. It Is a question In the minds of some as to whether the city or the treasurer, Mr. Melcher, would, In that case, be the loser by ths transaction. Sewer Contract Enjoined. True to his promise James Plvonka yes terday filed a petition In Judge Troup's court asking an order of court compelling the city and the contractors on the sewer proposition to appear and show cause why a permanent Injunction should not Issue to prevent them fulfilling the agreed con tracts. This action Is similar to that which so long delayed the work ou Missouri ave nue. The reason a temporary restraining ordt was not asked is thought to be the fact that the plaintiff would In that case have to furnish a heavy bond; but as it is there is nothing but the court costs to be guaranteed. This action will have the ef fect ot delaying the contracts un:!l such a time aa the court Is core l need of ire legality of the present contracts. This may be a tedious pre oas of litigation. The city attorney postponed his visit to St. Ixrnls yesterday and at once examined the petition of the plaintiffs with a view of filing a cross petition at the earliest pos sible moment. There are many cltlsens ar rayed on each i.lde of tha controversy and the action Is !'. surprise. It Is looked on by the other side as u positive "habit" on the part of some citizens. More Carriers Needed. Postmaster F. J. Etter announces that the Increase of the population of the city has been so great and the consequent In crease in the mails so heavy that he has applied for three additional carriers for ths city and an extra clerk for tha branch at the South Omaha Livestock sxchangs building. For several weeks the branch at the exchange has been overcrowded and sometimes the work has plied up. One of the clerks from ths main office has often been sent over to help relieve tha con gestion. 'It has long been known that the carrier service has been a little short. Amending Inspection Regalntloas. The Bureau of Animal Industry has re ceived ammendatory regulations covering tha meat Inspections, providing for tha ex amination and relabeling of all meat food products. It appear that- different labels will havs to bs used for relabeling than In the original labeling. Ths second amend ment provides for the transportation of meata which are exempt from Inspection under the regulations, such as meats slaughtered by local butchers and farmers. This rule appllrs when the meat Is shipped under the Interstate commerce regulations or to a foreign market. . These amendments provide that the shipper shall make out a shipping certificate pronouncing the meat to be sound, healthful and In all ways fit for human food. A duplicate muat be sent to the Department of Animal Industry at Washington. Sandnr Services. Ths services at the First Presbyterian church will be conducted morning and even ing by the pastor.

Bergln Sentinel Ben Lauer Gaoler ; James Hall Mercedes Teresa A. Dale Carconte Kate Fletcher Mile. Danglars Jusnlts La Lands Mile. De Leon Ethel Dunn Marie Louise Miller "Th Count of Monte Crlsto" still ha power to move th people. It Is a great exhibition of the elemental passions, and as fitted for the uses of the actor Is un relieved by those occasional disquisitional lapans by which Dumas sought to relieve his hero of the charge of being of earth earthy, and to secure for him some attri butes of the higher and nobler man. In the play he is simply the popular hero, condemned unjustly to suffer for another's sin, and through anotber'a ambition; liber ated from living death and raised to a height of power by strange mischance. Returned to life and activity, even mor popular than when he was suddenly torn from th arms of bis brld and the society of his friends, he Is all th mor enjoyable because we know he la the Edmond Dantes for whom we hav wept, oom back to punish and reward. Danglars. masquerad ing as the baron, doesn't know it, nor docs Fernanda Mondego, who has hidden his Catelonian extraction behind th title of an ancient French house. Mercedes alone of all that company knew It wonderful Intuition of woman's . lova, and most ap propriate climax to the action of the play. At this point our feelings are atretched to the point ot ultimate tension, and if It wasn't for that last act to settle all aa It should be there's no telling what might happen. But th last act Is there, and wa can go home, feeling that one again has, right and true love triumphed. Mr. O'Neill play Edmond Dantes with the loving car that one bestows on a precious treasure. He can fairly be seen caressing th part as he develops him through his various stages; the light hearted honest manly sailor, the desperate and discouraged prisoner, the pious and philanthropic Abbe Busoni, and at last Count De Monte Crlsto, sinister, polished, relentless, bent on destroying those who would destroy him. It Is quite as much of a triumph In his hands today aa it waa well, never mind how many year ago. Tim la moving along for all of us, and a man Is only as old aa he feels, and Judging by Mr. O'Neill'a light rapera on the stage, he Is Just past & or thereabouts. Mr. O'Neill'a supporting company Is good, and th production Is elaborate and com plete. Th scenic effects are . remarkably good, and the tableau that follow. Dantes' escape from th Chateau A' If arouses stich enthusiasm as to require the presenc be fore th curtain of the hero, still- clad in hla tatters and whiskers, and apparently dripping from his submersion in th sea. For that matter, the large audience at th Boyd last night followed th fortune of Edmond Dantes with such aealous Interest, that, had it not been certain that he would get away and return to avenge himself. It la 'quit probable that Messieurs D Vllle fort. Daitglara and Mondego would - hav met with violence. However, th champion of th hero were content to vent their feel ing in applause, which they had ampl opportunity for doing after th first act. Th sadness that attended th carrying away to prison of th newly mad Bene dick and ship captain wa such aa to re duce th expression of pleasure at th excellent acting to a few very feeble and sporaslo hamlpats. This wss not Indicative of coldness on the part of th auditors, but of their deep regret at th untoward occur rence that marred the pleasant wedding feast, just under way.
