AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA
Labor Union Will Take Complaint
Against Contractor to Court.
ALLEGE CHASTER VIOLATION
I'nlon Mrs Are ot Employed
Pablle roatrarts Sor I'nlon Wages
PaidHenry Martin Dies
la Wyoming.
Union labor in South Omaha has taken
umbrage at the city fathers and city eon
tractors because, they assert, the require
ments of- the city charter in regard to
Union labor have been Ignored. The matter
has been discussed for some time In union
circles and it has come to the point where
action will be taken soon. The cause of
the complaint is that the city contractors
engaged In paving do not pay union wages
and hire union men as required by the
charter. It Is contended by the unions
that any contract entered into by the city
carries with It an implied agreement that
the contractors shall hire union men at
union wages.
At the council meeting last Monday night
a committee from the union waited upon
the council and laid their grievance before
that body. No action was taken upon the
matter and the unions have put their case
Into the hands of attorneys. It Is under
stood that the law firm of Smvth. Smith
A Shall will hold a conference with the
labor leaders this morning at 9 o'clock.
In a speech to the oouncll last Mnnrlur
Judge P. C. Caldwell, speaking for local
No. TU3, asserted that 26 per cent of the
money paid by the taxpayers for paving
was going into the pockets of the con
tractors Instead of Into the pockets of union
labor as provided by the charter. Bv this
is meant that the extra profit accruing to
the contractors from cheap labor should of
right be paid into the wages of the union
laborers according to the union scales.
One of the union officials when seen
Thursday announced that the trouble
would be carried to immediate issue.
It Is probable that tho union men- will
call a strike unless the contractors meet
with their demands. But It la a question
whether or not the matter will be brought
to the Immediate notice of the contractors
or to the city In Its corporate capacity. It
is argued by some that any contracts en
tered into by the city contrary to the pro
visions of the charter are null and void.
In this case the contractors would have a
difficulty in collecting their mnnnv rw
the SZ&O.00O Improvement and paving bonds
issuea Dy tne city all are now In the hands
of the bond dealer. Spltier A Co. of tvi
O. It will be some little time before the
money is realised and in the meantime the
contractors will have to wait
Sprinkling; Twenty-Fourth Street.
After many trials the old question of
sprinkling Twenty-fourth street by the
railway Company will be revived at the
next meeting of the council. It Is under
stood that a number of residents of
Twenty-fourth street will wait upon the
aldermen who will be asked to bring the
legislative power of the city to bear upon
the officials of the street railway com
pany in order that the dust nuslance of
Twenty-fourth street may be abated.

High School Class
Holds Last Banquet
Senion at Henshaw Enjoy Splendid
Repast and Last Farewells Before
Commencement.
It was a farewell meeting of the grad
uatlng class of the Omaha High school
Thursday evening at the Henshaw, when
almost 130 of the members participated in
the class banquet. Many of the seniors
met for the last time for this year, and
perhaps for several years to come, for
some have announced th,r intentions of
scattering to foreign lands.
Dr. W. M. Davldfon, the retiring super
intendent of Instruction, and Prof. E. T
Graff, the retiring principal of the school,
were tompelled to give their speeches be
fore the banquet, owing to the reception
at the Happy Hollow club given in honor
of Dr. Davidson. Dr. Davidson was very
frank In his remarks to the senior class.
and wished them a successful career In
their future undertakings. He used as his
! subject, the motto which is displayed so
orten in graduating classes, "Not For Self.
But For All."
Prof. E. U. Graff In talking to the class
took the opportunity of expressing his i
gret of severing his connection with the
school. Mr. Graff told of his many friends
which be has gained .from among the
student body, and how much the friendship
of many of these meant to him. Mr. Graff
urged each member of the class to keep in
close connection with the class as much
as possible, as the friendships which the
students gain at the school during the four
years are invaluable.
Lee Ellsworth acted as toastmaster and
carried out his duties In a satisfactory
manner. Leonard Lavidge, Marjorle How
land and Lee Ellsworth were the commit
tee in charge.
Lieutenant and Mrs. W. N. Haskell were
present at the banquet. Lieutenant Haskei

BENCH AND JJAR CELEBRATE
Second Annual Field Day is an
Hilarious Success.
ELEAZAE WAKELEY OLDEST MAN
Supreme Court Justices Play Great
Ball Game and Speeches
Are Barred.
With the supreme bench of Nebraska
and Judge Eleaxar Wakeley. celebrant of
his 89th birthday, sharing honors as
guests, the Omaha Bar association held Its
second annual field day yesterday. The
games and the banquet at the Field club
In the afternoon and evening were pre
ceded by a luncheon at noon given to the
members of the district bench and the
supreme bench at the Commercial club.
The big event of a day packed full of
good things for both bench and bar, was,
however, the dinner In the evening at the
Field club. In the spacious dining room,
which waa cleared of everything else,
covers were laid for clote to ISO guests.
The' dinner was elaborate but Informal.
With one exception there were no set
speeches.
R. W. Patrick presenting a beautiful
bouquet of flowers to Judge WaKaley In
behalf of the Bar association, in an
eloquent speech paid tribute to him as
the nestor of the Douglas county bar.'
If a distinction were to be made between
the supreme Judges and Judge Wakeley, it
would be entirely safe to say that the
latter carried off the lion's share of the
honors.
Supreme Court oa Hand.
Chief Justice Monoah B. Reese, Associ
ate Justices Fawcett, Root, Letton, Barnes,
Sedgwick and Rose, and all the Judges 01
the local bench were called upon for a
story and a few remarks. Without ex
ception all had some highly complimentary
Incident in reference to . Judge waeiey.
Otherwise there was no method or pur
pose In the stories of the evening; they
were simply meant to raise a laugh, and
they did.
As an appetizer and a fun-maker the ban
game In the afternoon was a howling suc
cess. Everybody from the chief Justice
down to the lawyer with his first case to
win participated. The game started on a
scientific basis, "Clint" Brome and "Jess
Palmer "choosing up." For about four in
nings it was fast and furious with honors
even between the younger members who
composed the two teams. Then gradually
the common hoi pollol. such as the Judges
of the district bench, successful practi
tioners with prosperous embonpoint, asso
ciate Justices and the chief Justices, drifted
Into the game and such a thing as team
work and a score card became obsolete.
It was then a matter of bright, individual
starring, howling partisanship, reversed
decisions and appeals from the alleged
arbitrary rulings of Justices Fawcett and
Root as umpires. The "number of strikes
ailoted each man grew from three to seven
and then as many as he wished.
Of all the old-timers on the diamond,
Judge Sears of the district bench probably
covered himself with the greatest glory
and "came back" most completely. Bat
ting and fielding he performed with the
gusto of a high school lad. His most sur
prising feat was performed while he was
In the pitcher box. A liner, red-hot from
the bat of N. O. Talbot of the Dally
Record, came at him like a bullet. He
reached out and gathered It In with as
much aplomb as a society butterfly ac
cepting a cup of tea. He didn't have to do
it either pocslbly he could have got out
of the road.
Judge "Ben" Baker' work In the box
was flawless In the matter of delivery,
his wind-up excited the admiration of all,
but he had a strange penchant for hitting
every batter that got up before him at
least once with a pitched ball. He caught
Justice Fawcett squarely In a plaoe where
the Justice did not want to be caught.
Judge Estelle he struck three times with
the first three balls. The latter stood up
like an Horatio before the fearful fire, re
fusing to take his base The fourth ball
over he hit on the nose for a perfect safety.
"Bob" Patrick stepped up to the plate
only to be greeted with shouted admoni
tions not to let his whiskers get tangled
up with the bat. Zlegler pitched a delicate
slow fade-away that was tanallxlng. Judge
Kennedy played a strenuous game, but
missed a beautiful fly squarely In his
hands. James Rait, playing short, turned
and ran from the field when "Jess" Palmer
sent a slsxler across the diamond that
scorced his face. Justice Fawcett hit a
hot one to Page at second, which the latter
stopped, but Immediately wished he hadn't
been so heroic.
