Work will t Btartod on the new Twenty
fourth treet car line MonJar morning,
marking tho real opening pf spring work
In Omaha. Tho appraisement has been
(naoa (or rutting through Twenty-fourth
Street from Cass to Burt and the company
hopoa to have this part of the route cleared
up and graded by the time the force
reaches Cass street. Work will be begun
Afonday morning at Twenty-fourUi and
, Leavenworth. '
. It was at first planned to use the Hsmey
' street line from Dodga to Crelghton uni
versity, but that plan baa been abandoned
sod the new Una will run straight through
frem Leavenworth to Cuming street, with
Vut a alight curve at Twenty-fourth and
fit. Mary' avenue. With the completion
Ot this line tt la now thought probable the
ears will ba run from Twenty-fourth and
Vaia direct to Bouth Omaha, making a
m anilaa run without a curve.
I iW iotne year the people of Omaha
have been clamoring for a cross-town line
through the residence districts and the
company some time ago announced that
such a line would be built. An effort was
made to build a line from Thirty-third and
c streets south to Ilanscont Dark, but
opposition along the route caused this
project to be abandoned. The company
then determined to build from Kama in to
Ciimlng street on Fortieth street and this
line was built last fall. The company will
now build the additional cross-town line on
Twenty-fourth street
Many have feared that the building of
this line might have a tendency to change
the retail district of the city and even
tually make the center of the retail dis
trict at Twenty-fourth and Farnam streets.
As the cars now run people going from
the north side of Omaha to the south side,
or from the south side to the north side,
have to travel sixteen blocks out of their
way. eight blocks east from Twenty-fourth
to Sixteenth street and eight blocks back.
The new line will save all this distance and
save the company from hauling patrons
that extra distance.
It Is the purpose of the city officials to
assess the levy for the opening of Twenty
fourth street upon a wide area of property,
so the burden will not fall too heavy on a
few.

All Are llappyi
Harriet Campbiil, ( years old, had fine
game of hide-and-seek Friday night and
Saturday morning. Half the city detective
and police force, her parents and a hun
dred friends were "It." The fact that
they did not find her for fifteen hours
proves that Harriet had hidden well.
Harriet Is the 8-year-old daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. W. B. Campbell, who live up
stairs at lduCH North Twenty-fourth street.
She was playing wtlh her younger brother
Friday evening on Beward street until
about 7 o'clock, when Mrs. Campbell went
out and brought the children In. .To emplia
rlie the maternal authority she picked up
a little switch and followed the children
up the stairs. Mrs. Campbell was busy In
the kitchen for a , time and when she
went Into the . sitting room Harriet was
not there. The. mother hurried .out and
walked around the block searching for the
little girl, but In vain.
Mr. Campbell, wild la an employe of the
Orchard & Wllhelm company, returned
soon. He was too' alarmed to eat his
supper, but started out at once to look for
Harriot. A search In the neighborhood
failed to find her. Then the police were
notified. With Mr. Campbell and neigh
bors they searched all night, covering all
the space between Cuming and Blundo and
between Twenty-first and Twenty-seventh
streets, walking every alley and peering
Into every byway and box and cellar with
lanterns and searchlights.
Parents Are Frantic.
All was In vain. Farents were frantla
with grief. Friends tried to console them
by the hope that Harriet had gone to stay
with friends during the night, as little
girls sometimes do. But by this time the
parents had almost given way to the most
awful suspicions.
Among the friends who called about noon
was Mrs, B. II. McCullough. , Willi the
stricken mother, she went out on the back
porch. Suddenly both women started as a
bead was raised cautiously from between
two coal boxes which stand on an adjoining
porch. : "'..' , .' "
' "What's that?" cried Mrs. McCullough.
They ran to the spot. There, crouching
between the boxes, grimy and shivering,
was Harriet. In an In. taut alls was folded
In ' her mother's tight embrace and cov
ered with kleaes In spite of the coal dirt.
"I , saw the lanterns going ground and
heard the people talking," said Harriet,
surrounded by rejoicing friends, "Out I
was 'afraid to come ouL I was afraid I'd
get a whipping."
Mr. Campbell -waa still searching with a
party, but he was quickly summoned and
learned the glad news. Harriet, after
everybody had embraced her and kissed
her, was put to hed by her mother and
thero I rejoicing In the Campbell home.
PHI RHO SIGMAS HAVE A TIME
Koer Get Arrested, Home Sell Shoe
strings and Wear Strange
Placards.
Four students of Crelghton Medical col
lege were arrested In the Calumet restau
rant at noon Saturday on a charge of
stealing silverware. The young men were
eating lunch at one of the tables, when
the had waiter accused them of having
placed several pieces of the silver In their
pockets. They protested their Innocence.
The police were called: they were searched,
and the silver was found In their pockets.
They were taken to the police station and
spent the rest of the day In a cell.
All of which was a Joke. Eutuiduy was
the duy of the Initiation of sixteen candi
dates into the Phi Rho Sigma fraternity.
The buys had a penult from the mayor to
have a good time as long as they didn't
break the law. The arrest of the four
young men was part of the Inllta'lon.
' Others of the candidates spent the day
selling shoestrings on Farnam street, and
one man solicited alms with a touching
placard on his bosom stating, "I am not
blind, but I need the money."
The .Initiation was . completed last rdglit
at the Rome hotel with a banquet-
PLAN OF CITY INSURANCE

MICHAELSEN ADVOCATES SCHEME
City Electrician Believes It Could Be
Made to Forestall Meat and
Necessity of Pabllo Con-trlbatlons.
Proposing a method of rounclpal con
troll over Induatrial Insurance, Waldemar
Mlchaelson, city electrician, believes he
has a meihed fur relieving want among
the poorer people of the city and absolute
poverty of families of workmen killed or
Injured or confined by reason c'. long Slck
nessi The necessity of raising funds for
the Drummy and McCartney families
brings Mr. Michaelson's proposition to the
fore at this time, though hs Is In hearty
sympathy with the raising of money for
these two families, having donated t
both funds.
"In Denmark, Germany, and many other
European countries ths governments su
pervise life and accident Insurance and
every 'workman Is compelled to psy
monthly a certain amount, though very
small, of his wage into the Insurancs fund.
It Is an excellent Idea, and while I hardly
feel confident of advocating the plan tor
the nation, still I think It would be
good thing for Omaha," said Mr. Mlohaak
son
Every Wage Earner.
Mr. Mlchaelson's Idea Is that the matter
could be taken up by the ordinance, pros
ably, and every wage earner li the city,
resident or "floater," be compelled te pay ;
a small amount of Ills monthly wages Into
the Insurance fund. If the "floater" sliouli i
leave the city, that which he has paid t-a
WOUld BO towards tha pnmmnil rrtc-rf. t 1
this rnnnnrtli.n ha r.1 4
vision compelling the city polloemen and,
city firemen to pay 1 per cent ef their
monthly earnings Into relief fund. Tha
lax Is small and Is not felt, he asearta,
but In the aggregate tt amounts to a con
siderable sum and comes In very handy
on a "rainy day" for a member of either
force.
"If this relief Industrial Insurance, super
vled by the city, Is a good thing for tha
policemen and firemen, why would It not
be a good thing for every wage earner In,
Omaha?" Is the pertinent question aaks4
by the city eloctrlrlan.
