Local Banki Make a Fine Showing
of Deposits.
SALOON LICENSES GRANTED
Only Tn Protests and Police Board
Will Hold a. Special Meeting
Toala-kt to Pass oa
These.
Bank deposits in South Omaha, by the
official statement Issued yesterday lor
the close of business April 28, exceed
$10,000,000 for the first time In the his
tory of the market city. This enviable
figure was reached by a splendid Increase
over the former statement Issued In Feb
ruary. At that time the deposits In south
Omaha banks were between $8,000,000
and $9,000,000. The total gain alnce that
time has exceeded $1,600,000. The bank
ers are Justly proud of the record of
South Omaha. Another good shorn Ing is
that the cash on hand is larger than ever
before, being In excess of $4, P00. 000. The
banks combined have loaned above
$8,000,000. A comparison of the banks
shows that the prosperity has been pro
portionately divided. All nave made bet
ter showings.
Hrarlna- oa ftalooa Licenses.
The South Omaha Board of Fir and
Police Commissioners met last night to
pass on about forty liquor licenses and
to hear protests, should there be any. The
protests were narrowed down to two, all
others having been settled by agreement,
since all related to the matter of the
publication of the legal notices. One pro
test was brought by Klmer Thomaa of
Omaha against A. H. Fryes, who applied
for the saloon at the South Omaha Live
Stock exchange. The ground advanced
In the deposition wss that the petition
wa faulty and the saloon was in reality
owned by the Union Stock yards as a
corporation and therefore a license could
not issue. John Fida waa protested by
residents of the neighborhood.
All those applicants against whom no
protests were lodged and who had com
pleted the necessary legal steps in the
matter of petition, bond and fee were
granted licenses. The protested licenses
were passed over until tonight, when the
hearing will be granted. Any other ap
pllcants who at that time are eligible
will also be granted licenses. The total
number of applicants this year is about
seventy, as compared to elghty-aix or
eighty-seven last year. Two or three
later applications will probably eome in,
but the board does not expect more than
aeventy-five appllcanla at the most.
Athletic Eahlhltloa.
Tiie Shamrock club gave its usual fort
nightly athletic exhibition last night. The
attraction of the evening was a wrestling

work of the Soutn Omaha man and gave
him plenty of applause, although It waa
seen that h would be defeated. Rid

Progress is of more vital concern to us

spoke In reply to tha toast, "Our College,"

"The Country Doctor" was a toast ably
handled by Dr. H. L. Newell, OS. of Alex
andria, Neb., who had considerable valuable
advice to offer the graduating medical stu
dents, along with numerous entertaining
and funny accounts of experiences that
have been his lot.
