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.

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. '

Officials May Now Proceed to Let
Contracts for Work.
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. That

. by the Establishment of the ,
Double Shift. . ' :
A Baralnsj Shame -
Is not to have. 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.
"Parents will have to see thst their chi

have to have their co-opeiatlon.
"Tha morning sehslon will extend from.
