Hastings ft Heyden are Jubilant over
( V the number of their sales since January 1.
J 1911. Never, they say, have they made ao
many sales at this season of the year.
All of their new houses have been sold,
and because of the demand for moderate
. priced houses they will start work upon
' several more at once. Among the sales
of the last week are the following:
W. J. McCalley has bought a bouse and
three lota in Hillsdale addition.
Mabel L. Kchllck has bought a lot In
JJncoln heights.
Martin Poulsen has bought two lots In
JllllsdaJe addition as an Investment.

Elisabeth B. Wahl haa purchased a lot
Twentv-ela-hth atreet Just north of
Jackson street, paying $3.K0.
All of thie talk about about vacant
house la nonsense." say a Harry A. Tukey.
They are one of the necessities for any
city. I have no We now many there are
at the present time and would not care to
ess. One man came to me a rew aays
go and declared there were t.100 vacant
houses, becauae there were mat numo.r
of unused gas meters. No line certainly
can be drawn from this because many of
the gas meters are In flat buildings. An
other man came to roe with an expression
of horror and said: 'Do yeu know there
arc B0 vacant bouses In Omaha?' I told
htm if that were true that It was the
smallest number there had beer In the city
for years.
-How would it be possible to take care
of new ' families that come to our city
were it not for vacant houses? Accord
ing; to the laat oonsus there are about
new families come to Omaha every year.
If there were no vacant houses rents
would Jump and the man In only fair cir
cumstances would have to pay whatever
was asked, becauss of lack of competition
la Tents.".
A mass meeting held at the Benson
city hall Tuesday night a definite proposi
tion was made for a publlo park In what
now Is Mornlngslde addition.
The proposition was made by N. P
Podge. Jr. He said If the ettliens of Ben
son could get a ti ret car line along any
street between Orphanage and Leroy ave
nues to extend to the present city limits on
the south, he would donate the wooded sec
tion of Mornlngslde to Benson as a Mrk.
This plot contains about six acres and is
valued at IT.500.
Rev. Father Moriarity declared the street
car company must be offered some In
ducement to extend Its line In Benson. He
- said the people of Benson could not expect
'to get anything Iron the compauy unless
they could prove that such a move would
be beneficial.

Stucco Construction
The overcoating of frame houses by cov
ering with a plastic application of Port
land cement and sand, commonly called
'stucco," In making rapid progress In all
sections f the country.
Metal lath Is first attached to the weath
erboardlng for a holding device and the
sand concrete evenly spread In three coats,
the first one having a little hydrated lime
mixed In to give It adhesiveness.
In foreign countries, where stucco Is uni
versally used for exterior work, It Is
usually applied directly to brick walls, but
In practice this Is found to be uncertain,'
as the stucco Is apt to peel off and leave
large sections of the brick wall exposed.
Expanded metal lath supplies a material
which becomes embedded In the mortar
and Is thoroughly reliable to hold it per
manently In place, as the lime In the ce
ment te a complete preventive from rust.
Frame dwellings covered In this maimer
have been examined fifteen years after
the work was done and the lath found aa
good as new.
The up-to-date architects have made the
discovery that by the overcoating process
the old and unsightly frame houses may
be Inexpensively converted Into the fash
ionable stucco appearance and the occu
pants have a house warmer In winter and
cooler In summer, with no necessity for
expensive renovation of paint. Kxperlenoe
has shown that there la no danger of
cracking, as In the case with brick and
stone walls.
The enterprise of Omaha architects has
given the city some notable examples of
this sort of work,- and much more Is In
contemplation. The cement and sand mix
ture for this purpose Is about the eame
aa used te make sidewalks, and any good
plasterer can do the work.
COURTHOUSE WORK TOO
SLOW FOR ELSASSER
Resolution Is In trod need tn Have
Wnrk on Structure Mere
Faster.
A resolution designed to hustle the work
on the new court house wa:i Introduced
Saturday at the meeting of the county
commissioners by Peter K. Elaaser. The
resolution was referrred to the committee
of ths whole and the architect.
Clsasser heavily scored the contractors
for their slowness, stating that although
the contract called for $27,000 worth of
work every month, that so far the figures
showed only an average of $26,000 a month.
According1 to his statements, only $13.0C0
worth of work haa been done In January
and only $7,000 in February.
John C. Lynch gave his hearty endorse
ment to the purpoee of the resolution. If
not the wording, saying that he had not
heard from the contractors since he had
taken his place on the board.
The resolution quoted an article of the
contract In which, in the judgment of the
architect, the contractors were not pushing
the work as required, the owners might
biro men and deduct their wages from the
amount due at the completion of the con
tract. Bids on road grading by W. A. Streeter,
Turner eV Krauht and Condon ac Griffith,
ranking from IS cents to 22t cents a cublo
yard, were accepted by the lnard. Their
acceptance was strongly opposed by Mr.
E.isasser on tnv gTounus that they were
too high.

NIGHT SCHOQLSJLOSE SOON
Thursday Marks the Close of the Most
Successful Year.
PUPILS ARE IdOSILY FOREIGNERS
Attendance Drops Off at This 'lime of
the Year, as the Students Leave
te Bnarage la All Kinds
of Work.
The Comenlus and Kellom nlnht schools,
which have been In session since last Oc
tober, will close next Thursday night.
They will not reopen until next October.
Thursday marks the end of the night
sctibol year. The evening schools are
closed this early because the attendants,
who are foreigners, ranging from 19 to 66
years of age, leave the city that they may
begin work in different parts of the coun
try. The schools, which have met with the
greatest success In their history this year,
have had more attendants than ever before.
During the school year 075 foreigners have
been enrolled at the Comenlus school at
Fifteenth and William streets, and 458 at
the Kellom school, Twenty-third and
Nicholas streets.
"I am gratified with the results at the
Comenlus school," said Mrs. Klizabeth R
Park, principal of the school. "We
had more foreigners in attendance thin
season than ever before. More than thirty
nationalities have been represented and
the attendants have taken an Interest in
the work which la surprising.
"You have no Idea the influence these
schools exert for good. The schools, whose
primary object Is to teach foreigners to
read and write the English language, gives
them their first Idea of American citizen
ship. ,
"Many attend the schools because they
are forced to do so. Others attend be
cause they want to learn. In my school,
I have one man who speaks five different
languages. Now he Is learning the Eng
lish language. There are many instances
pf men who speak two or three tongues
and wish to add another.
"In the Comenlus school eight men have
not only learned to read and write, but
they have completed courses which corre
spond to the subjects taught In the eighth
grade of the publlo schools. Certificates
of proficiency In these subjects will be
Issued to them that they will hava some
thing to show for their work."
Four night sessions a week have been
held in the two schools. At the present
time four rooms are devoted to the night
school work. At times during the year as
many aa five have been In operation. One
room was closed recently because the at
tendance fell off to such an extent that
the men could be handled In four rooms.
A departure in the methods of Instruc
tion haa been followed at this senslon.
Forelgnen from the northern part of Eu
rope have been segregated, aa have been
those from the southern section. Mrs.
Park contends that better results can be
obtained by this system.

Mystery of Forty
Years Solved by
Finding of Ring
Skeleton Found Near Noblesville, Ind.,,
that of E. C. Woodmansee, Who
Disappeared on Wedding Day.
NOBLESVILLE, Ind.. March 18 The
mystery surrounding the finding here a
few weeks ago of a trunk filled with parts
of a human skeleton and containing: a pe
culiarly carved ring, apparently was solved
today with the receipt of a letter from a
elster-ln-law of Eugene C. Woodtnansee of
Danville. 111., Identifying the ring as one
that belonged to Woodmansee.
Woodmansee came here forty-four years
ago to wed Miss Sarah Virt and procured
a license. A few hours before the ceremony
ha disappeared and was never heard of
again. The bones were found on the site
of an old roadhouse that flourished near
White river about the time of the civil war,
and It Is supposed the man was murdered
for the $000 which it Is known he had.
Mrs. J. H. Woodmansee, the brother's
widow, whose home is in. a suburb of Cin
cinnati, was sent the peculiarly carved
ring and Identified It as being a duplicate
of one worn by her husband. She stated
that her husband mourned his brother aa
dead.
Miss Virt. after waiting ten yean for her
lover to return, was married to Daniel
Jones of Westfleld, Ind., and died in 18S8.

Omaha.
Members of the Board of Park Commis
sioners are requesting that dtlsens of
O mail a get ready for the general clean-up
day.
Following the usual custom. Mayor Dahl
man will name some date early In April
for the general cleaning of the city. Fresh
from his visit to Lincoln, the mayor an
nounced Saturday morning that he would
name a day as soon as the weather would
permit the activities.
Cltlsens Hhonld Pre pure.
The park board members suggest that
citizens get in readiness. They say that
much of the preliminary work can be done
these bright March days and when the
general day comes, the greater part of the
rubbish will be out of the way.
Many places In Omaha have been dis
covered which the park board considers
worthy of special efforts. For Instance,
the members point out that th apace
back of th city hall, on the corner of
Eighteenth and Douglas streets, can ba
beautified by a little extra work on the
part of those who own the corner. An
other vacant corner on Seventeenth atreet
and Capitol avenue haa been characterised
as an eye-sore, which can be Unproved
if the ownera will get busy.
To make the city more beautiful by
cleaning up the rubbish is to be the aim
of the park board.

cause the appointment of physicians to
examine school children for optical defects.
In fact, they have framed a protest, a

The optometrists declare that the enact

It would be unjust and unfair to say that
