Four hundred guests, a groaning table, music, sppaking, f dato amusement and good cheer marked the celebration of South Ori'Sha's twenty-third birthday last night. Looked upon from every possible angle, the affair was a great success and memor able. The response of the citizens was hi arty to the sufrgectlon and with no ap parent effort the.hal! was filled comfort ably with those who found special pleasure In coming. Nothing was perfunctory nor lacking in appropriate spontaneity. The after-dinner program was lengthy, but well received, for the speakers, though many, made brief and creditable addresses. The whole range of South Omaha history was touched by the various topics assigned by J. M. Tanner, toastmaster. Miss Oeorg ina Davis gave a vocal selection for the opening, singing In a clear, pure soprano, "Spring Is Coming." Miss Gladys Van Sant accompanied her. Dr. R. L. Wheeler, a favorite after-dinner speaker In South Omaha spoke on the ap proaching era, which should mark the city's prime. The best point was his tribute to F. J. Morlarty. deceased. Bruce McCulloch. always a gifted son of humor, spoke on tho topic, "The Press." David Anderson, one of the pioneers, read a brief eulogy on the pioneers, living and dead. He mentioned many of the old residents by name and his personal remembrances found a re sponsive chord. Mrs. H. C. Richmond sang the folk song, "Where Is Now the Merry Party." and fol lowed it by "Auld Lang Syne." The aud ience took up the chorus. Miss Flosjlo Tanner accompanied her. Tribute to Indn.try. Charles F. Mandcrson, gave a brief his tory of the formation of the Union Stock yards and the beginlng of South Omaha. Miss Bertha Shelaney sang two selections with the success that always follows her appearance. "The Bobolink" and "Funny, But True," were the topics selected. John E. O'Hern, superintendent of Ar mour & Company's packing plant, gave a brief outline of the scope of the packing industry and said the best Idea came from the pay rolls for labor and supplies, which amounted to $7,000,000 In South Omaha an nually. Herbert James Tanner rendered two bari tone selections, "If I Were King of Every thing," and "My Sweetheart." His voice though young showed range and quality. Dr. W. J. McCrann spoke on the topic of the public schools, declaring that South Omaha had a record to be proud of and had shown results unsurpassed by any city ot the same age. Judge A. L. Sutton spoke on "Fraternal Ism," which he declared was a principle on a parity with religion. E. T. Farnsworth toasted "The Ladles," and the evening closed fittingly with a song written for the occasion, , "South Omaha, South Omaha," sung to the famil iar air, "Maryland." The members of the Commercial club were elated with the fine response of the people and the people were more than pleased with the entertainment. Strategy of Republicans Wins. The inside of the clever move of the South Omaha republicans to get the demo crats of the city council to meet Thursday morning to accomplish the delayed busi ness which resulted from the failure to meet last Monday evening was not so In tricate an affair of politics as may have been thought. The democrats were willing enough to meet, because they believed that no move of the republicans could be car ried through touching the Judges and clerks of election, on which point the council split last Monday. Therefore, when they were approached by a democratic friend and urged to meet to further the business of making a temporary connection with the Mud creek sewer at Monroe street, they all readily signed the call and met with the council. Once there, there was no thought of the trap on their port until the list of Judges and clerks was read. The fact that the mayor had a right under the rules and ordinances to cast the deciding vote In case of a tie did not dawn upon them until they had voted on the proposi tion and It was done. The council attended to the other Items of business In regular form before the mat ter of the Judges and clerks of election came up. They passed a resolution per mitting the Union Stock Tarda company to make the temporary connection with the sewer. A number of bond ordinances were passed for the last Issue of paving bonds. These bonds will be advertised for sale at once. Bids for the Twenty-seventh street sani tary sewer were received and O. E. Beck was awarded the contract The reports of appointive officers were read and a num ber of partial estimates for public work were allowed. A communication waa re ceived from the park board requesting the council to pass an ordinance Issuing $15,000 bonds for park Improvements. List of Lackr Ones.

"As a matter of record with reference to the selection of judges and clerks for the coming election, the article published In the Tuesday's issue of The Bee Is ab solutely correct, and the democratic mem bers of the council did not withdraw from the council chamber when they saw that no agreement could be reached, because they failed to appear as they had agreed to, and no attempt was made on their part for a compromise. 1 "I also wish to state that the only 'slate fixed up' was presented by a democratlo member of the council, and all the repub lican members asked, was that they be al lowed to select the election board from their respective wards according to the statutes. .
