TYIthifi thirty daa the directors rf the
Auditorium expect tn dispose of the r
maJning',"V.ii( of serond mortgage bond,
whkh will provide fund to pay alt tMI
ration of the Auditorium and complete the
bulMlng. which means a new roof.
This was the announcement made Batur
(ifby President F. A. Nash of the Audl-
lortnm company, who declare the enter
prise a auccesa In every sense, of the word
tnd, ha plans which will mean much to
Omaha.
At ptrsent the Auditorium company hat
ITXCP awbsoritM-d for the improvement fund
pf the W, n. Issue of second mortgage
hrnW. But for the financial flurry the
directors would have disposed of the 18.000
still held hy the company and which they
9c. to sell within the next thirty days.
"The Auditorium has made it demon
stration," aatd President Nash. "It has
fulfilled many of the expectations of the
people of Omaha, but there Is still much
to be done. The last two years have, been
valuable experience. It ahows it will pay
running expenses and materially reduce ex
pr sea., We must complete the building
according to the plans of the architect, a
a real live manager la afraid of the build
Ins; because of the outward appeerance
and when he locks at It, he turns down
contract for a high class amusement.
. ;Ht Bids far the Werk.
"WHIl the exception of the columns on
the north end west we will complete the
building In the spring. The obllgatiens
s mount to something like $14,009 and we
i not , only have estimates, but bids to com
1 rlte the building, with th exception of
he-'J-olumna for less thin $28, AM). The
roluwns may be added later, but are purely
Secorative and their, absence will not de
tract greatly from the appearance of the
bunding..
Mr j. Nash favors both a horse shew and
fat t ock show for next year. He Is firmly
convinced the horse show does not bring
the people to Omaha from outaide cities, as
planned when the building waa erected,
white a fat stock show, he believes, will
brimf visitors ta the city from surrounding
towns and fulfill the purpose of the Audi
torium to enable Omaha to give a show or
entertainment which can be presented at
no other city in ' Nebraska or In no other
city of the west.
The trouble wi'.h handling the fat stock
show Is simply in handling the stock and
raring for the animals sent here." said
Mr.' Nash, "but we hope to overcome this
, elation In some way. We will provide
in some way to stable the stock sent here.
t The show should be given a week ahead
of the bjg Chicago ahow to enable western
breeder to ship their stock t Omaha, oo
tids good premiums and then go on to
Chicago. I . believe a stock el.ow ia what
t need, a It would be for the people out
side of Omaha, while the horse show only
answers the purpose of entertaining the
people of Omaha."
Carnages la the Hsne Shaw.
The horse ahow of next year la assured,
pt according to the managers, but It is to be
changed in many ways. The west desire
ri exhibit tt horses for utility and those
interested In the Omaha horse show mean
to make It more a "business men'" show,
which will attract those who admire the
"show horse" as well as the business men
who want to see the utility horses an!
hold the show horse In contempt.
Mr. Nash agrees with those who want
r-.rr . : .-5
Hungry As a Bear
v snd Can't Eat
t s the roadsters put forward and en
couraged to come to the show, though be
Is of the opinion Ihe last horse show riven
In Omaha was a rival for the Madison
Square Garden show.
When the Auditorium Is completed the
management will have the opportunity to
secure entertainments which will attract
large number from the outside, which was
one of tlie pjrpoeea of building the big
fctrueture on Howard street.
The next attraction will be the poultry
show, when feather and fur will give a
gardnn party, and the chickens, cate and
dnga of the west will be seen on exhibition.
At present the Auditorium Is relng used
a a roller skating rink and 1 a great
success. The management ha arranged
for special police protection and perfect
order is maintained. The enterprise netted
the Auditorium company lyin last Saturday,
and-many days during the winter the net
earnings will exceed that amount.

A movement ia on foot a ir.cn a roiue of
the Omaha paving contractors to secure a
new specification for next year which will
permit the laying of concrete pavements
Heretofore pavements have been limited In
practice to brick, atone and asphalt
The price of the latter pavement haa been
lowered somewhat in recent bids, but the
men who desire to place concrete In cwn
petition with other material declare that
a greater saving can be made with thia ma
terial.
E. D. Van Court, who la active in the
movement, declares that concrete pay
ments can be laid with profit at 11.40 to tl 60

tions the price may be further reduced.

aist of a richer combination than the

Charles Pumphrey. who waa convicted of
murder In the first degree for the killing
(f Ham Pak. a chinaman last July, was
sentenced to a life term in the pentltentlary
by Judge Troup Saturday morning. Sen
tence waa passed Immediately after Judgt
Troup bad overruled a motion for a new
trial and a motion for arrest of Judgment
presented by Pumphrey' attorney, John
O. Telaer.
Thl Is the most regrettable incident

Troup aa he pronounced the sentence. "It
almost Incomprehensible that tnree

ontended the Information was faulty be

tacked the section of the statute under

Smith la the South Omaha negro who

Demand for suburban homes, with Urge
lots has Influenced C. C. George r Co. to
have platted a new addition to Omaha,
which will be known aa "Falracres, snd
will exmsist of tracts .from one and one
third to seven acres tn stse. ...
The tract adjoins Dundee and the weat
boundary of the Happy Hollow club golf
grounds wfll be the east boundary of the
new tract. 'The whole addition consists of
ISO acres, but the ownera have reaerved a
number of acrea for public parks, besides
the wide boulevards which pass through
the tract.
More than STS.0Q0 worth of houaes have al
ready been erected on the tract and a con
tract for a home costing tla.000 has just
been let.
'Kalracres" will be opened In the spring
and the prleea will range from rtO to tl.SOe
per acre. The atreet car line now runa
within half a mile of the tract, but as the
homes are largely owned by those having
automobiles or carriages, the demand for
the car line ha not been large. It ia ex
pected that the Dundee line will run weat
half a ante In the spring which will give
those having home in "Falracrea" access
to the city by street car.

This, aa It Pats Mare Work

Radical changes In the laws relating fo
the repairs of roads and the distribution
of the road funds will affect the work of
the count board during the coming year.
The new law enacted by the last legisla
ture took practically half of the road
money raised In tho country districts out
of the hands of the board and placed It
In control of the local road overseers.
While the amount of the general road fund
will be reduced under trie law the mem
bers of the county board generally ap
pro this provision. It will enable the
board and the road overseer to divide the
labor of caring for the roads. The over
seer will be made responsible for the work
of a temporary or emergency nature, while
the board wtlr continue to look after the
larger Jobs Involving, the expenditure of
considerable- money.
. Tho law provides that half of the money
raised for road work in the country dis
tricts shall go into the general road fund
and the other half into the district fund.
As there is about tS.OOO raised in the coun
try district for the roal fund, half of this
will be placed in the hands ot the overseers
for emergency work.
Another provision of the lsw which It
will be Impracticable to apply in Douglas
county is the one providing the general
read fund shall be divided equally among
the commissioner districts. In two of tho
commissioner districts there are no county
roads at all. and In two more the county
road mileage lssw- small aa to amount to
practically nothing, fnder a strict Inter
pretation of the law four-fifths of the gen
eral road fund would go to the districts
thst could not use It and only one-fifth
to the on district which contains prac
tically no other roads than county roads.
Another feature of the new law will also
cause trouble. It Is provided that road
districts shBll contain not less than one and
not more than two congressional town
ships. A congressional townahip Is Jaken to
mean a district containing thirty-six sec
tions. If this provision Is complied with
It will be necessary to make widespread
changea in the boundaries of the present
districts.
