; Following the action of the Unlvercity
or umana Thursday in starting a suit
In equity to void a mortgage against Its
property, the mortgage by Oak C. Redlck
.tteatcK star tea action to foreclose the
mortgage In district court Friday. He
asks that the property be foreclosed
and sold, the proceeds being used to pay
him the face of the mortgage. HO.J04.4S,
and Interest
"I don't know whether there can be
an amicable adjustment of our differ
; ences or not." said Mr. Redlck Friday
! "It Is to be hoped for the benefit of the
; school and- for the benefit of Omaha
that there may be such an adjustment.
. I have been carrying the school for four
years and the burden has become too
heavy."
The petition recites that after the sale
!of the old Redlck property, ground and
buildings to the university the school
gave Redlck a first mortgage bond for
$40,209.16, secured by mortgage deed to the
j property In controversy. It was provided
that In default of Interest payment! when
due, the entire amount should become
payable at once. Interest payments due
j&Iay 1 and November 1. 1911, and May
X 1912. amounting to $3,518.5? are unpaid
and long overdue.
"What It amounts to is this," said E. W
Elmeral, attorney for Mr. Redlck. "The
'university wishes to repudiate a part of
the agreement and take only a part of
the property It originally wanted to take.
Mr. Redick wants the contract kept and
Is ready to do his part. He has the
deeds ready to deliver and has tendered
mem. jncw men are now in control or
the school and they are unwilling to
abide by the contract made by their pre.
decessors."
The original deal with Redlck was
made by the executive committee of the
board of trustees. The trustees now
contend that they as a board did not
ratify the deal and therefore the mort
age should be voided.
Big Wild West Show
Comes to Town Today
This Is "early rising day" for a con
slderable percentage of Omaha's bud
ding population. There la a reason.
This Is the day the circus or, rather,
the 101 Ranch Wild West comes to town.
Before this is read by the greater part of
Omaha's breakfast time news devourers,
the three long trains utilised to transport
;the paraphernalia of the big show will
. have rolled into town, been shunted into
ithe Webster street yards, been unloaded,
the scores of vans and wagons and the
hundreds of horses and other animals
hustled out to the show grounds at
Twenty-first nd Paul streets, where the
Wild West is to be domiciled during the
day; early coffee served . to the army
of workers, the first tents erected, and
arrangements under way for the "de
'llghtfully dazzling and superbly-plctur
resque" free street parade which lnevj
' tably precedes tho opening performance
' of the big tent shows. ' -., . ,
1 The first big event of the day will be
the parade,' which leaves the show
grounds at 10:30 and passes over the
i principal downtown streets. Some of the
novel features may be enumerated. One
is a genuine prairie schooner, drawn by
long-horned steers. . Another Is one of
the original Wells-Fargo stage coaches.
drawn by a six-mule army team, and
:wlth Rocky Mountain Hank, one of the
j "real" old-timers handling the reins
Still another Is a herd of buffaloes.
Then there are, it Is announced, floats
illustrating In a characteristic way
scenes in the early days In the Far
West cavalcades of cowboys and cow'
girls, Indians, vaqueros and Mexican
Cossacks. Joseph C. Miller, president
and head of the 101 Ranch, riding his
Arabian, horse Ben-hur, and mounted on
his $5,000 silver-trimmed and diamond-
studded saddle, will be an interesting
figure in the parade. The horses are
said to be a remarkable exhibit in them
selves.
A finished program is promised for
the performances. The afternoon show
begins at 2:15 and the night performance
at 8:15. Doors will be open an hour
earlier to afford visitors an opportunity
t0 hear the preliminary band concert
and visit the Indian village. There will
be a review of the Wild West celebrities,
strenuous border dramas, an Indian at
tack on a pioneer's camp; a hold-up of
the overland stage; the capture and pun
ishment of a horse . thief; "Ursus"
Pickett's remarkable feat of wrestling
and throwing a wild steer; a round-up,
utilizing genuine range cattle, and many
other exciting displays.
Seats will be on' sale Saturday at the
Myers-Dillon drug store.
Hummel Would Have
' City Build Gutters
Bids of approximately $15,000 worth of
boulevard guttering received by the city
council may be rejected upon the re
quest of Commissioner Hummel, who has
asked authority to do the work himself.
The bids varied from 23 to H cents per
lineal foot .
Commissioner McGovern said some of
the bidders had attempted to sell their
chances and that It looked they would
try to switch their contracts If the con
tract was awarded.
The matter has been referred to the
committee of the whole for discussion. '
Assistant City Attorney Lambert In an
opinion to the city council holds that
money derived from the sale of houses
cannot be applied to the grading work
under the supervision of Commissioner
Hummel, but must be distributed pro
rata among the various funds.

Loungers Disappear
When Byder Offers
to Give Them Jobs
Patsy Havey. in charge of Police
Commissioner Ryder's employment
bureau, wants 1M laborers at once. If
he can't get ISO he will take as many as
apply. Patsy has a book full of names
and addresses of men wno are looking
for laborers, and he has not one laboring
man to furnish them.
"Here's one man wants to hire forty
workmen," said Patsy, "and I can't help
him out. Just say In the paper that If
any poor, downtrodden son of Ehem is
tn need of help, hungry and out of a
Job, to apply at Jack Ryder's office."
Since Commissioner Ryder issued the
edict that able-bodied men must either
work or vamose, there has been a sur
prising dearth of undesirables hanging
around. " !
Workmen had come to Ryder's office!
and declared it was Impossible to find
work. In the belief that he would do them !
a great favor Ryder started his employ- i
ment bureau and lo! there are no Job- j
less men. several applied when the
bureau first opened. Only a portion of the
applicants were given work. Many Jobs
are now listed with Patsy Havey, but
the idle workmen have vanished.

Omaha postoffice will be open all night.
Hitherto it has always been the custom
to close the postoffice at 11 o'clock at

the government Inspector, who recently
spent several days in Omaha and neigh
boring cities inspecting conditions at the
federal buildings.
Custodian Cadet Taylor says in regard
to Major Haverstick's report:
Heretofore -;. the building has been
closed at U.'D'cIodk at night. But from
and after today; by Instructions issued
by the custodian, the Sixteenth street
entrance will be open at night. It will
now be possible for the public to have
access - to their lock-boxes, or to man
letters at all hours of the night. This
will, be good news to traveling men and

by the postmaster at Lincoln on the
grounds that It contained obscene and
Indecent matter, does not violate the pos

Expressed by Postmaster General Frank
Hitchcock In a letter written to Dana Van
Dusen, editor-in-chief of the Nebraska
annual.
Editors Van Dusen and Buck were not
permitted to walk in the graduation pro
