Three Tears for Killing Brother Frank
Oriffln, colored, who killed his brother
George by stabbing In their home at 2611
Patrick avenue laxt winter, pleaded guilty
lo a charge of manslaughter before Judge
Kstells Tuesday and received a sentence
of three years. The original charge against
by the committee, of the whole yesterday
sfternoon, ordering him to bring In a reso
lution tonight to establish a rook pile In
Omaha.
The resolution, however, will Instruct
the city officials to enforce an ordinance
passed In 1905. rather than to enact a new
one. Councilman Berks dug up an orcll
nHce pflssed five years sgo which estab
lished a rock pile, but which left the
location of the place And the conditions
under which It was to be operated to be
determined by resolution. Subsequent
action was never taken by the council
and the act has been a dead one ever
since.
Whether the resolution will pass tonight
In a question. The opponents to the rock
pile project showed enough strength during
the afternoon to give the plan a stiff
tUHsle If they desire.
Hummel, who has declared himself against
the rock pile, wants the city prisoners
worked on the streets snd in the alleys.
He declares that the city can get more
out of the tramps and petty criminals In
this wsy than on a rock pile. Miss Ida
V. Jontz. secretary of the Associated
Charities, pleaded for the rock plls In a
short talk, which was to the point.

received. The protest came In reply to the
request of Sunderland Bros., who hsve
asked that an ordinance for the grading
of the street be repealed and a new one
parsed after the street Is graded.
John A. Sunderland contended that the
established grade was too steep for team
ing and petitioned the council to reduce
the grade before the street Is paved. Wil
liam 8. Weber of $45 South Twenty-first
Htreet, representing the property owners,
urged the council to pass the paving ordl
nace. saying that special Interests should
not be considered any more than those
of the property owners. The council de
layed action, pending an Investigation
which will be made today.
Clashes Narrowly Averted.
Personal clashes were narrowly averted
between Sunderland and members of the
council. Sunderland declared that in-
Umatluns had reached his ears that the
council was opposed to his request for
personal reasons, ilummil demanded to
know what these Intimations were. Sunder
land retorted that he did not care to discuss
the differences from the angle which had
been suggested.

we had refused to permit you to lay a
track along Twentieth street T" Hummel de
manded of Sunderland.
I did not," replied Sunderland. "I have
never made threats of any kind against the
members of the city council."
The protests against the change of grade
were based on the claim that the Improve

aid travel to any great extent and would

Facing a depleted sewer fund, the council
had to make provisions to install catch
basins throughout the city, and the only
way to meet the demand was to chop off
a portion of each sewer. The council had
intended getting the money from additional
funds provided In the bill for the revision
of the charter, but when Governor Aldrtch
justly vetoed the bill other provisions had
to be made.
Louis Friedman, the Florida spender,
who struck New York with $3.90 In cold

Just before the Florida special drew out

Friedman from a sound sleep. He thought
It was another train hold-up at first, but
did not attempt to uss the revolver that
he afterward produced from under his

The county commissioners will feel the
pabllc pulse before making the proposed
change In the marble specified for the new
court house. At the meeting yesterday
afternoon there was such a feeble response
to the Invitation they issued to the exec
utive bodies of the Commerclsl club. Real
Estate exchange and others that the board
does not feel Justified Just now In depart
ing from the contract, although they are
convinced that the Colorado marble would
make a better showing.
The specifications call for Italian marble
The contractors, however, let the subcon
tract to the Colorado-Yule Marble com
pany, thinking, according to C.eorge W.
Caldwell, that It would be easy to get the
approval of the board for the reason that
the board had tried hard to get the Colo
rado product In the first place. A come
down of S'J5.nO from the original bid of the
Colorado company made Its product acces
sible.
The commissioners fesr the possibilities

tract Architect Latenser and Commission
ers Lynch and Elsasser object strongly to
approving any change. The other mem
bers of the board are In favor of It, but
want the board to be unanimous.

and Contractor Caldwell all day yesterday
The contract calls for $104000 worth of

UNITED WORKMEN ROUND

Style with Mark Merriment at
A. O. IT. W. Temple.
Patten lodge, 175. Ancient Order of
United Workmen, celebrated Its twenty
first anniversary at the temple, 110-112
North Fourteenth street, last evening.
The program consisted of literary and mus
ical numbers. Of the evening's entertain
ment the speech of Jacob Jaskalak, deputy
grand master workman, was the chief
feature. Mr. Jaskalak took for the sub
ject of his address "Fraternallsm." The
speaker told of the necessity of fraternal
lsm. Its power and benefits. In the course
of his speech he recounted the history
of the lodge from the time of Its inception
with nineteen members twenty-one years
ago to the present when the roster shows
a membership of 600. After the speech of
Mr. Jaskalak Miss Sadie Myers, a talented
pianist, rendered a number of Instrumental
selections. Miss Baldwin and Mr. R.
Adams, who each sang solos, received
much applause as did Joe Hlrsberg, a most
diverting comedian. At the conclusion of
the set program refreshments were served
to those who remained for the danoe. An
orchestra composed of members supplied
musto for the dance.
Tli&MC YOU!
You Omaha friends of ours, have crown
ed our months of planning and our days
and nights of endeavor with the greatest
reward we could ask simply your ap
preciation of this truly modern store.
We had hoped you'd like it wo'd even
felt sure you'd admit it to bo the great
est clothing store in the west and that
is n considerable achievement in itself
but when you came Saturday and Mon
day by the thousands and told us this
was the most modern store you'd ever
seen, we could only say "many, many
thanks."
We'd like to clagp each of you hj the
hand and tell you bow much your ap
preciation means to us, and how we're
going to make this a greater store as
the days go by.
We're holding open house this week.
Come in and see.
