The South Omaha Commercial club In sessloS Thursday noon spent the hour al lotted to the meeting In discussing the project of a new hotel. A proposition by Miss McCarthy of Omaha offering to lease a hotel of fifty rooms and guarantee good service, provided a ten-year contract In a modern building could be secured, was con- ldertd. The club will interest Itself In seeking property owners who may be will ing to build under such a proposition. It is understood that a number of property owners have offered to build to suite the needs of a good tenant, no the proposition mry come to an early realization. The need of a first-class hotel in South Omaha is imperative and many of the business men of the city would be willing to assist by taking shares In the building. The club ppolnted a committee to investigate the proposition more fully and to meet pros pective property owners who might be In terested. This committee consisted of E. B. Brown, W. B. Cheek and M. Eckman. The club instructed the secretary to dis pose of the billiard table belonging to the club rooms, as It appeared that the mem bers made little use of It. An arrangement s to be tried so that a weekly lunch may be served In the club rooms that the members may meet and conduct their busi ness with no delay or hindrance. It is agreed that in the club rooms a proposi tion might be well discussed while the members are taking their lunch and by the time the short hour was over all buslqess could be finished. Interarhau Lino Financed. An item of great interest to the club and to the city was mentioned by Mr. McGill to the effect that St. Louis capital had been Interested in the Lincoln-Beatrice & Hast ings Interurban line and that the present Ralston line would be financed and com pleted shortly. It was declared by the same Informant that $1,000,000 had been promised for the completion of the line. L. M. Lord, the cashier of 'the Live Stock National bank, said he had been consulted regarding the feasibility of the proposed Interurban line and had assured his inter viewer that the milk hauling business alone would pay all the running expenses of the road. His questioner was one of the par ties who will, it is believed, finance the proposed road. Depot for Barllnaton. A general depot and passenger station for the Chicago, Burlington & Qulncy railroad was one of the good things announced at the club meeting which will shortly be a reality. The Burlington agreed to construct a station at Thirty-sixth and L streets as soon as the street car line was extended to that point. The general passenger agent oi the uurnngton announced privately a few days ago that the appropriation for the depot had been included in the list of stations to be constructed this year, but that by some means it had been set aside temporarily. He said that an effort would be madC to have the- apportionment re Instated and the station constructed ai once. This station will be erected at an approximate cost of $10,000. The conven lence of the new car line through the Union Stock Yards was never more apparent than at present. With an attractive passenger station at the end of the line much travel and waste of time will be saved. Dinner Parties at Country Clob. The lowering weather of last evening made the dinner parties rather slender at the South Omaha Country club; but a number were held in spite of the threaten Ing sky. Among those who entertained were Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Towl. whose guests were Misses Shannon, Gladys Sul livan and Mr, Joseph Peschek, T. J. O- Nell entertained a party of four, and L. M. Lord entertained a party of two. Special Meeting of Board. The South Omaha Board of Fire and Po lice commissioners beld a special meeting yesterday afternoon to hear charges pre ferred by Myer M.

The evidence showed that Lipovskl had a dog which wore no tag and that Lipovskl got Into an alter cation with the dog catcher over the mat ter in the presence of the officer, who told htm he had to secure a dog tag. This Lipovskl declared be would not do and de fled the officer to arrest him. The officer became provoked and some words ensued, The family of Lipovskl came to his aid and another officer came up.l In the mean time Glllln told Lipovskl he Was under ar rest and ended by hauling bis prisoner throuch the open streets to Jail. On this action Lipovskl based his action to have Glllln punished at the hands of the board. The board took the matter under advise ment and will report, later. Wella-MereeU Wedding. Frank Wells of Los Angeles, Cal., was married to Miss Nora Mercell at St Bridget's church Thursday morning. The bridesmaid was Miss Cella Mercell, a sister of the bride. Lester Murphy acted as best man. After the ceremony the young couple started at once for their new home on the Paolflo coast. The bride is the daughter of Thomas Mercell, 1023 North Twenty-fourth street. Birdie Uses Rasor Well. Birdie Aldrlch cut James Smith with a rasor shortly after noon yesterday in the Wollsteln building at 2618 N street. James Smith is a rather well developed specimen of African humanity and has been paying court to Birdie Aldrlch's sister until a day or two ago he became enraged at his lady love and la aald to have abused her and to have cut up all the Sunday clothes which were the pride of the girl's heart. Not content, he pursued her to the home of Birdie Aldrlch where, according to the lat ter, he began an assault on the girl, which enraged the said Blrdte until she secured her handy and effective rasor and cut Smith's back from the top of the right shoulder to his left hip. She declared afterward that Smith was trying at the same time to use his own rssor. Both were arrested. ITvlck-Poaplall Match Off. A match scheduled between William Uvlck and Jodie Posposll pt Omaha Is said to be off because of a disagreement be tween the principals as to the fighting weight Posposll at first was the chal lenger at from 166 to 160 pounds, but In slsted on a U0-pound weight before sign ing an agreement This Uvick refused, as the bout was only one week distant Poondsaaater Disappears. John Zukowskl the South Omaha pound master, has disappesred from the public service at least and has left about $100 In the dog fund unused. This disappearance Is explained by the belief that the pound master met with so much grief in carrying out his official duties that he gave up in despair. He not only suffered the bites of the enraged canines, but seversl times he was roughly handled by Irritated residents, was Miss Nettle Waller of Louisville.
