fhe plan had been to put the water bonds

delay will make It ImposHlble to hold the

thirty days published notice.
When the refcolutlon providing for the
election came up for consideration, John
lynoh. commissioner, entered a strenu
ous objection to the allp-shod manner In
which the board la handling the bond

"There hasn't been anything said hi to

It Is going In order to defend my poslilon."
A memorandum finally produced from
the pocket of Jeff W. Bedford showed In
a rough way the disposition of the funds,
but did not satlKfy Mr. Lynch, who de

Fourteen hundred bibles to be distributed
In the rooms of Omaha hotels are stacked
In the Young Men's Christian association
assembly room waiting, for the Gideonsto
put them where they are to go. Since their
organisation as a national society twelve
years sgo, the Gideons, the "Christian
traveling men," have placed 80,0u0 bibles
In the rooms of hotels all over the country
and It Is theln wish to put a holyook In
every hotel room In North America.
In Omaha there are about 1600 rooms
which the traveling men would like to see
supplied with bibles and 1.000 more will be
purchased to complete the work as soon
us possible. Hotel keepers have given
testimony frequently to the Gideons that
the placing of the bibles makes their light
bills heavier, which proves, at least, that
they are read and there have been many
stories collected showing that they have a
direct and wide Influence for good.
The Gideons will distribute their bibles
In a procession which will march from the
Young Men's Christian association meeting
Immediately after the special gospel meet
ing to be held this afternoon. There are
forty men In the local organization and
they want to get as many more men as
possible to help with, the distribution. In
Chicago there was a parade of men,
and they would like to see a larger crowd
In Omaha. At the gospel meeting J. C.

Mr. O'Halr Is a lumberman of Bt. Jo

a mission. Mrs. Wright Is a prominent
singer In her own city, and Is possessed
of a very beautiful voice. Sunday morn'ng
Mr. and Mrs. Wright will appear at Pearl
Memorial Methodist church and Mr. O Hair
will appear at Trinity Methodist
The Bibles themselves are entirely plain,
but are printed in gocd, clear type and
are convenient for reading. They cost only
about, 40 cents apiece and small contribu
tions 'enable the Gideons ta buy and dis
tribute a good many of them.
In June the organization will have a con
vention In Lincoln and later In the sum
mer a national meeting In Milwaukee. It
is the Intention of President Comlns and
others to have representatives from Ne
braska attend this session, and If they are
enabled to go they will pull for Omaha ai
the place for the convention of 1912.
The national conventions are assuming
greater Importance every year, as the or
ganization is rapidly growing and Is rep
resenting a constantly Increasing propor
tion of the traveling men of the country.
No commercial traveler can be eligible
for membership unless he is a member of
a Christian church and a firm Christian
In his beliefs. The badge ot the organiza
tion Is button upon which the torch and
pitcher which were used by Gideon of old

CITY DECIDES ON FIRE BONDS
Ordinance for $100,000 to Be Pre
sented to Council Tuesday.
I . aaassssaaasas.
ELECTION TO BE HELD SOON
r
Major Dahlman Saa that Haadred
Thoaaaad Is All that the City
Will Be remitted to Vote
For at This Time.
An ordinance declaring the necessity ot
voting 1100,000 In bonds to erect three new
engine houses In the city, will bs presented
to the city council Tuesday night. Mayor
Dahlman stated Saturday morning that
satisfactory arrangements had been made
with the county board of commissioners to
hold the election- In conjunction with ths
Water board and county elections.
June 11 Is being considered as the datt
for holding the elections.'
"The ordinance 'will be presented Tues
day night." said the mayor. "Two weeks'
time will he required to pass tns measure.
Then we must give ten days' notice by
publication, which will permit us to hold
the election on June 21, If the others are
held then.
"We have decided to ask for not more
than 1100,000. In fat, we could not esceed
this sum if we desired. City Attorney Rine
states that we cannot go above this amount
as the city is permitted to vote only $S0,-
000 in bonds annually. Already 1150,000 have
been Issued for Intersection and park pur
poses. But we can make the contemplated
repairs for $100,000 In my opinion."
The money Is wanted for erecting a ew
engine house at Sixteenth and Izard streets
and another at Tenth and Douglas streets,
and a third at Nineteenth and Harney
streets, the latter to replace the one now
located at Eighteen and Harney streets,
which Is rented by the city at an annual
cost of tt.BiiO. .
The special election for the coUrt house
bonds and water bonds, which had been
planned for June' 21, can not be heW until
later. Owing to the non-appearance of any
delegation from the water board, the
county commissioners took no action Satur
day to provide for the election on that
date and thirty days' published notice is
required.

Complaints against Ice dealers, who are
charged with short-weighting the house
wives, have poured into the office of the
Inspector of weights and measures In such
goodly measure that John Grant. Pegg has
started an Investigation, which, he says
will land the offenders in the police court.
"Ice dealers, though charging 60 cents
a hundred for ice, are short-weighting the
publlo to such an extent that the Ice ta
bringing them 75 cents," declared Pegg
Saturday morning. "Only this morning I
received two complaints. One was from a
woman who Uvea on North Twenty-second
street. She paid for twenty-five pounds
of ice, but on weighing It Immediately
found that she had only twenty pounds.
Similar complaints reach me dally. Thel
are not directed against any one firm, but
agtlnst many.
"Immediately I received this complaint
I called up the ice company and was prom
ised an investigation. Officials deny short-
weighting and say that if such practices
are being followed, it Is the drivers who
are at fault."
Labor Approves
Co-operative Store
Central Union Goes on Record in
Favor of Plan Ten Dollars
for McNaroara.
After two months of discussion and delay
the Central Labor union last night en
dorsed the project of a co-operative store.
The action taken was simply to give the
sanction of organized labor to the move
ment. C. E. Wlckes of Council Bluffs, who or
ganized the mercantile co-operative store
In that city, is to organize the Omaha con
cern. Working with a committee of three
from the Central Labor union he is to get
the subscriptions of 200 members of or
ganized labor to one share each at $3 a
share before the plan is put In operation.
The committee appointed was as follows:
W. J. Light. L. Duncan and W. R.
Mathenson.
The question whether any but members
of organized laboT should be permitted to
hold stock gave rise to a great deal of dis
cussion. But the question waa finally
dropped when the debaters realized that it
was out of their jurisdiction, as the union
was merely giving Us sanction to the
project.
A committee of five was appointed to
assist W. A. Christian, secretary of the
btate Federation of 1-abor, in making ar
rangements for the state convention of that
body to be held here September 12. Mr.
Christian's plan for a union label fair,
showing the variety of union goods that
are on the market, was enthusiastically
adopted.
Resolutions unfavorable to the proposed
arbitration treaty of the l.'nlted States with
England were adopted and voted sent to
congressional representatives and the press.
Ten dollars was voted for the MtNamara
defense fund in reply to a spirited com
munication from the American Federation
of Labor asking aid.
W. R. Mathenson was elected vice presi
dent to fill a plaie made vacant by the
repeated absence of the former occupant,
and James FXIson In a similar manner was
elected sergeant-at-arma.

The firot intercollegiate peace oratorical
contesy was held Friday night at Creighton
auditorium, when Glenn L. Rice, represent
ing Dellevue college, was given first honors
by the decision of the Judges. Oniatr P.
Sullivan of Creighton took second place.
The subject proved an exceedingly Interest
ing one and held a critical audience
throughout.
All the arguments were convincing and
the question of place seemed confined to
delivery. Mr. Rice covered the many good
points of his subject nicely and Is a dis
tinct talker. Incidental to the coveted
honor of winning la a prize of ITS, donated
by William Jennings Bryan, and Mr. Rice
becomes the claimant of this.
Omar P. Sullivan, who finished second,
won applause not wholly emanating from
Creighton loyalty. He brought out every
conviction of his theme In a convincing
manner. Possessing a natural oratorical
bent, a distinct talker and becoming ap
pearance, he combined them all In his
delivery, and wltb the natural ease of his
every movement entirely captivated his
audience. He manifested an extensive
study of his aahjeet and Impressed his
audience with each Idea. He merits ths
additional honor of tM If he gives over
copyright of his manuscript to the Miases
Mary and Helen -S.abold of New Bedford,
Maes.
The other two participants were Eugene
Bishop of York college and Robert Sim
mons of Hastings.
The former msy have proved a stronger
contender, but he suffered a lapse of
memory during his delivery, which wss
probably due to his evident haste, and
was twice rescued by consultation with his
manuscript.
Mr. Simmons hsd a good speech, hut was
scarcely convincing enough in putting forth
his Ideas.
Phillip K Horan opened the program by
explaining the subject. The Judges of the
contest were A. W. Wsterhouse. superin
