Fire .and Police Commission Prepar
ing to Bay New Fire Apparatus.
RECOMMENDATIONS BY CHIEF
Deawalttoaa to lie Taken In CiM
Arlilna; Oat of Conatrartlon of
the Cell. In the New
City Jail.
The time has arrived for the Board of
Fir and Police eommtaolonera of South
Omaha to make recommendations to the
city council regarding an extensive lnorea.e
in the city's fire equipment. The last legis
lature provided for an issue of $25,030 bonds
for the erection of a fourth fir hall, and
for the purchase of the necessary hose
trucks and a hook and ladder truok as
equipment, and also a modern fire engine
for fire stations.
The chief of the fire department, Dave
Carratt, baa prepared a report which will
be turned in at the nnxt meeting of the
board. He states that he attended the na
tional fire chiefs' convention at Grand
Rapids, Mich., and while there made a
special study of fire apparatus with the
view of securing the bast for the city of
Bouth Omaha. All classes of apparatus
were on exhibition and were given a rigid
test before the members of the convention.
From a score or more of good types Mr.
Oarratt decided to recommend a Scott en
gin and a Seuurave hook and ladder truck.
These pieces of apparatus he will ask the
board to recommend to the city council
for purchase.
As to the location of the new fir hall
the chief recommended that It be estab
lished as near to E or F streets as pos
sible and between Twenty-seventh and
Twenty-ninth street. The northern section
of the city has long been complaining of
the lack of proper fire protection. Th
nearest station is situated at Twenty-fifth
and li streets, which is considered much
too far for safety. The board will probably
tak up this matter asvsoon as possible so
that the new fire ball may be built this
year.
Th chief expresses satisfaction In the
fact that th fire losses during the entire
year have been, slight compared with other
recent years. Th largest loss was the
Peters Alfalfa Food Products mills at
Twenty-ninth and B streets. Th other
fire of Importance was the old woodon
structure of the Omaha Packing plant
Aside from these two the fires have been
of llttl consequence. In this respect the
city ha been mors fortunate than ready
consmermg in lack oi rire-ngntir.g ap
paratus.
Deposition In Cell Caa,
W. C. Lambert left last evening for Can

company ' has against th city of Bouth
Omaha for th cell work of th city jail

and bad the cells in position, payment was
refused, on the ground that the company
had net erected th cells according to

THE NEW FALL AND WINTER STYLES
To be dressed correctly in clothes of individuality is
a matter of pride with most men. The makers of Itogers
Pcet clothes have made it a study to confine themselves
to designs and patterns that differ
from ordinary ready-to-wear clothes.
A man in a Ilogers-Peet suit is a
well dressed man. These clothes are
made in exclusive patterns and refine

garment.

Eloper Are Held Up,
Barely more than 16, Carrie Kane, a
girl whose home Is a short distance south
west of Fort Crook, spent the first night
of her pre-hontymoon In jail. She and
her would-be hubby, John Otten, were
Intercepted last night in South Omaha by
th police of that city. The couple admit
that they left their homes to get married
without the knowledge of their patents.
They Intended to have the ceremony per
formed this morning, they said.
A head of curly red hair and a necklace
of- twenty large rattles from rattlesnakes,
proved to be the undoing of the elopement
plana. E. T Miller, at whose hotel, Twen-ty-slxth
and O streets, Otten and Miss
Kane stopped, notified the police of the
circumstances after he had been prompted
by Carrie's appearance and unsophisti
cated manner to question her.
'8h seemed so different from city girls
that I asked her where she came from
and if ahe was Otten's wife," fays Miller.
"Then she explained that they Intended
to get the license Saturday and be mar
ried at once."
Otten Is held as a suspicious character
by the police, pending the arrival of rela
tives of the pAtr. lie Is over 21 years of
age. The girl la merely being cared for
at the police station, without being held
a prisoner. They state that their par
ents will come to Bouth Omaha this morn
ing and give their consent to the match,
In which event the police will refrain
from further holding up Dan Cupid.
