PLAN CLEANING DISTRICTS Street Commiisioner Will Make Sug- geition to City Council. j TO HAVE THREE TOOL HOUSES ' Work of the Drptrtaifil to Be Greatly j rwtlltated by kuTinf Tin of Ike Men la tieetlas ta I tbe Joha. . U the city council will eatabllah street, (leaning distil, t, it will icault in a great ravins to the city financially and also pro vide greater efficiency In the work. Buch Is ihe opinion of Thomas Flynn. street com inlsHloner. Mr. Flynn will mak the council to approve a Brheme which he ha worked out and to appropriate 11 u trie ton t fundi to put the plan into prai'tlca. Klynn'e plan Is to establish five districts throughout the city and to erect three tatloiis from which the street cirauing gang! can operate. His nlitiiw provides for the erection of three tool houaeii In different part of the city, lie could place one in the neighborhood of j Tenly -aecond and Ames avenue, another 111 the Vet f'arnam district and the third in the downtown location. 1 With Ihene three centralised stations, Klynn contends that he can do the work required with a much less force than he u.-s ut the present time. To carry out the Mi a. It the council appruves the general chtme. Flynn a HI request that twelve Keeping machines and tea flushing ma thlnca be added to the city's equipment lor street cleaning purposes. "At present we have but one tool houee," said Mr. Flynn. "Its location handicaps us to a marked rxtent. The tool bouse, where Kil city iiilinenl l stored, 1 located un der the feiilet-nl'i street Induct. The la boreis lose mui time getting to the loot house and (he locality where thuy are go ing to woik than ts s.ictary. but, under existing conditions we can do nothing else. "Street laborers work rron s a. m. to & p. m. They must report at the tool house. Then If there Is a job In the north or west part of the city It takes them sn hour at leant to get to work. "To obviate this condition I wlll'suggest that the three new houses be erected. Two gangs can work from the Ames avenue house and two from the West Farnam dis trict. We will save much time In this way and get better results." Flynn will make this recommendation to the council neit week when he submits his annual report. Ills report will show that the department cleaned 16,621 blocks by hand and machine during the last year and 4.4.' with fluHhlng machinea. Also that 1D,31 blocks of intersections were cleaned. The total cost of this work was. 57,to4.58. The number of blocks of weeds cut dur ing the year was ,??. For other purposes nave cleaning the expense of the depart ment during the year totals I24.W8.J6. The department has 13S miles of streets under Its direction. WATER CASESSET FOR TRIAL Hydrant Rental Claims Since 1908 Up Next Month. OTHER CASES ARE TO COME UP Most of the Federal Case Awaiting; Trial la tbe District Coart Are of Miser I portaace Oae Fare Food Case. DEMAND MORE SCHOOL ROOM Hrsldeats of the .ortb Side Ask the School Hoard to Care for Chlldrra. A delegation from the NewiKirt-Belvldere Improvement asvoclstlon of North Omaha appeared before the committee on build ings and grounds of the Board of fcMuca tU.n Friday afternoon. Through A. 8. Jofeph. chairman of the delegation, the association requested that more room be provided for the Central I'ark annex, tiiher by adding to the building or by rnltng another building. The members of the association called the committee's attention to the fact that ninety-two children are forced to go to schools outside of the district The Hoard of Education promised to In vestigate the protest and to make provi sion for another aouex. If possible. Four more hydrant rental cases. Involv ing claims sggrtgatlng JlSO.iXM), will be tried at the April term of the federal court, un less otherwise settled. Trial notices have been filed with Crlcult Clerk Thummel. The untried cases are Identical with those recently settled when the. city of Omaha and the Water board jointly paid rentals aggregating S226.UO0,. only after Judge Thomas C Munger had Issued a peremptory writ of mandamus command ing the city to either pay immediately or levy a tsx to do so. The cases now pending cover the semi annual rentals due since the latter half of ltM, S47.5U0 being claimed for each half year. In the circuit court there axe thirty-four law and three equity cases noted for trial during the April term, which begins on the third of the month. Most of the law cases are for damages " demsnded of railroads fdr personal Injuries. Several of these cases have been transferred from stats courts. In the district court there will be little or nothing to do during the terra unless the grand jury returns Indictments. It Is known, thst a few of minor Importance will be returned, and It Is possible that some Interesting rsseo will be developed. In the district court only throe clrll cases are noted for trial, two being for violation, ef the twenty-eight-hour law, and one for violation of the pure food law.

CAMPEN HAS ANOTHER PLAN Would Have Contracts for Carbine; and Paving; Let to the Same Par ties to Facilitate tbe Work, ' The signing of contracts for the placing of curbing and the psvltfg of Intersections of the streets was made possible "Saturday morning when the city comptroller received a wire from New Tork to the effect that the sewer and intersections bonds had been delivered to Kstabrook ft Co. of Boston. "A trifle mors than $300,009 has been placed to the credit ot the city by Kountse Bros., who scted ss fiscal agents for the city In the transaction. . The city has been prohibited from sign ing contracts for curbing snd Intersections through a lsck of funds for the purpose. Under the chsrter contracts cannot be signed until the funds are In the city treas ury. A delay has resulted, which otherwise would have permitted the city to go on with the work. "Omaha Is ths only city In the country where sepsrate contracts are let for paving snd curbing," said Assistant City Engineer t'empen Saturday morning.' "The system handicaps ths city to a great extent. The pavers cannot get fo work until the curb ing Is set and the contractors who landed the curbing Jobs will not get busy until the papers are signed and approved by the council. 80 we have been losing time for the last two weeks, when the weather was Idesl for work. t "The city should chsnge Its system and let contracts for paving, curbing and in tersections to the sams parties.

Bucklen's Arnica Balvs to sure burns, sores, piles, cuts, wounds and ulcers, t&c For sals by Beaton Drug Co. When ths double shift program is put Into operation in the Omaha High school the lunch 'room may be eliminated. Prin cipal K. V.- Graft of the high school has worked out a scheme of recitations whlcll solves the double shift proposition. Ha has divided the recitstlon Into two divisions of five periods each, a morning and afternoon session. The morning con tingent will be composed of boys who drill and those who w'ork In the afternoon. Tha afternoon shift Is composed mostly of girls. The plsn.to be Instituted by 'Mr. Graff provides that students who attend the morning session will not be required, to come back In the afternoon and those who report In the afternoon will not be asked to attend classes In the morning. 80 the necessity of the lunch room Is prsctlcally eliminated. The double shift plan will be put In op eration on April 10. Immediately following the Easter vacation. "The only drawback to the new plan Is that it eliminates the study period,'' said Mr. Graff. "But to make the scheme pos sible we hsd to cut the sessions to five periods each. Heretofore the daily session has been composed! of six periods, one of wnicn was aevoieu iu iuuy purposes. iui thst has been cut out.
