Hearing- to Be Had Some Time Nrxt

Perpetual Injunction
Against Fanning.
A temporary order restraining the city
from consummating Its contract with
Charles E. Fanning for pavins Chicago
street from Twelfth to Thirteenth streets
was issued by Judge Sears of the distict
court at the behest of the M..FortJ Paving

and best bidder. Hearing on the Ford
company's application for a perpetual
injunction against the Fanning contract
will be had some day next week.
The petition sets out that the Ford
company bid to do the paving as per

tion issues Fanning will do the work and
get the money.

Bank Clerk Admits
Stealing Package
Containing $55,000
PENSACOLA, Fla., Sept. 25.-Wllllam
H. Bell, a 20-year-old bank clerk, tonight
confessed that he robbed the local First
National bank on Tuesday of a package
containing $55,000 of the Louisville &
Nashville payroll and substituted a worth
less package In Its place.
Fear that the officers would suspect his
brother caused Bell to confess. The young
clerk had been In tho employ of the bank
for two years.
Last Sunday he made a bogus package
similar in shape and size to the payroll
package. Tuesday afternoon when the
Louisville & Nashville payroll was being
fixed for shipment he slipped the package
containing the $55,000 into his locker and
substituted the dummy in its place. No
one noticed the change and the bogus
package, together with a shipment of
$20,000, was taken to the express office.
Tuesday night Bell took the package to
his office in a suitcase.
Activities by detectives and officers
when the robbery became known caused
him to return the money Saturday. H?
wrapped the package in a newspaper and,
after notifying the cashier of the First
National bank where the missing money
would be found, placed it on the back
steps of the bank building. The cashier
disregarded the anonymous telephone
message, believing it a joke. The package
was found by the janitor.
FAREWELL GIVEN COTT
BY IMPROVEMENT CLUB
About fifty members of the Southwest
Improvement club congregated last even
ing at their rooms at Twenty-fourth and
Leavenworth streets to bid farewell to
George Cott, former president of the club,
who is soon to move to Sioux City.
The meeting opened with the general
business of the club, during which period
Dr. Holovtchiner, president of the Board
of Education, and Secretary W. T. Bourke
of the same board, told what has been
accomplished within the last year with
the Omaha schools. Both spoke most
favorably of the new Commercial High
school and urged the club to father this
Institution, as well as lend support to the
proposed Industrial school, in which all
brandies of skilled labor shall be taught
The . co-operation of the club was also
sought in demanding better lighting
facilities In the vicinity of Leavenworth
and Twenty-fourth streets, improved pav
ing In that district and the filling up of
an unsightly hole at Twenty-seventh and
Mason streets.
A resolution was read by F. W. Fitch
in which Mr. Cott was thanked for all
he had done In, and for the club, and In
which he received the well wishes of the
cluh in his new venture at Sioux City,
Mr. Cott responded briefly. Refresh
ments, music and all around good fellow
ship held the boards for the ensuing two
hours.
