sltinp of Members Harrison. Chase and

When the consolidation committee had
reported through John L. Mcl'ague that
the committee lias accomplished its mis
sion, its report was received and the com
mittee discharged. Then came an address
by C. It Keller on "The Commission Form
of Government In Municipalities."
Mr. Keller began by sayli.g that he had
no criticism to offer of the existing city
government in enmha, that so far as
cities slmllarli h'jerned and chaitered
were concerned he believed Omaha to be
among the best of its kind.
Mr. Keller then launched into an expo
sition of the commis.-lon form of city gov
ernment explaining the division and cen
tralization of authority and executive re
sponsibility on a few men. each of whom
is directly responsible to tne voters, and
to the voters only, for his division of the
fc-overniuent, either puhllc affairs, streets
and public works, public safety or ac
counts. Mr. Keller also explained the referendum
and recall as applicable here and told what
"wonderful progress te Moines has
made."

etate. Tha Trt-Clty Buraea union of Omaha

living In thla vicinity. The latter Idea Is
to provide a meeting place for these men

to the church because there la no church
near which they may attend.

COMMERCIAL CLUB ALL SERENE
Atmosphere of Storm is Dissipated by
Meetlnsr ( Executive Committee
Olive Branch Passed.
The Commercial club Is now a quiet, so
ber and sedate place, the atmosphere of
storm, excitement snd expectation having
been completely dissipated by the meeting
of the executive committee Tuesday. The
Kan Francisco-New Orleans endorsement
episode Is now a closed Issue and In all
probability will never again come up.
interest attaches to the attitude of W. H.
McCord and E. E. liruce, but the general
feeling is that these two members of the
executive committee will accept the olive
branch extended by the committee as a
considerable measure of satisfaction or
atonement, and will resume their places
In the committee. Neither has yet signi
fied his Intention in the matter, but their
silence Is attributed favorable to coming
back.
Many members of the club believe that
ultimately the men in the McCord-Hrady
company will return to membership and
the whole mutter will be ended with mem
berships In Committee and club as they
were before.
FURAY TURNS DOWN DIVORCEES
.Marriage license Clerk Denies Per.
snlt to Woman a Week After
Her Divorce.
Owing to a lack of sympathy for love
sick divorcees on the purt of members
of the Nebraska legislature, the hearts of
ltoy E. Koberts and Frances U Kuhl of
hsiua City cannot beat as one legally,
though they may be two minds with but
a single thought. When Huberts applied
to Marriage Clerk Furay of the county
court for a license Wednesday It became
Furuy's sad duty to say, "Whoa, back
up." or words to that effect. Koberts
said his blushing bride had been an
other man's wlfo until last week, when
she was divorced. The Nebraska law pro
hibits reman luxe of divorced persons
within six months after the issuance of
the decree.

she had threatened and cocrcrd him Into
deeding to her all the property he had In

position Is made of the action begun
against her. Hildebrand also started an
action for divorce.
The plaintiff charges that his wife, who
Is 20 years his senior, is the possessor of a
fiery and ungovernable temper. He says
that by tHreats of various kinds and finally
by blandishing a revolver In his face Bhe
induced him to deed her his real property,
worth about 700, and to give her a bill of
sale for all his personal property, which
Is valued at about $.-,00. With the deed and
the personal property she flew to Omaha
eight months ago. he says, and now resides
In the neighborhood of Twenty-fourth and

Will Take Responsibility.
NEVER HAD ENOUGH STRENGTH

In Mate Did,
The Eleventh street viaduct will probably
have to be rebuilt ty the I nlon I'aciflc.
Following the communication from the
railroad engineers received at the meeting
of the city council Tuesday night declaring
that they did not wish to take responsi
bility for the viaduct as repaired. City En
gineer Craig decided that the city depart
ment was likewise unwilling to assume it.
l'.epatrs were ordered by the city and
plans were submitted from the railroad
and accepted, but neither Mr. Craig nor the
railroad engineers will put enough faith In
the old structure to accept any conse
quences If the repairs do not hold It up.
"The only thing left to do," says Mr
Crals, "Ib for the railroad to build a new
viaduct. We can't take responsibility ami
we cannot blame the railroad for not want
Ing to do so. The repairs proposed wouin
make It Just about as s'rong as It wi.
originally, but we build our viaducts
stronger now than wo did then because
the traffic Is heavier. The bridge m.ght
be made to carry 100 pounds to the square
foot, but all the others must be kept strong
enough to carry 150 pounds.
"The viaduct Is for the safety of the
public and must be made absolutely secure.
We could not limit It to ceitaln kinds of
traffic because that wouid necessitate a
watchman at each end day and night
Tactically the only action lefT that will
settle the problem Is to have an entirely
new viaduct built."
