Adrienne Augarde, the dainty little

she was a very small child. Her first
appearance in public was in a neighbor

enact the role of the small lord that she
was often afterwards asked to take part
in Sunday school theatricals and other
juvenile performances. . -Miss Augarde is
deeply devoted to her work and says she
Is going to remain on the stage until she
is too old to be attractive. As she is
now only 22 years of age and has already
won much fame, a remarkable future is
predicted for her. The young woman
spends all her spare time in study. At
present she is reading the novels of Sir
Walter Scott. She carries a small pocket
edition with her and reads whenever she

NEW CLASS TO TEACH
HOW TO READ PLANS

spoke of the efforts to secure an In

do that, twelve prominent men of the
trades were secured to give the technical
instruction about their particular lines.

HOW V TCHINERREFUSES COIN
School Building Contractor Offers
Bribe to Board President
FACT COMES OUT AT MEETING
Mrsakers Kefa) Refwna Beoaaae ef
Story Told la Exeeatire Sraiiea
f tke Effort to Iafluence
Action.
Rumor of an attempt to bribe President
E. Holovtchiner of the Board of Edu
cation to vote to refund a contracting
firm 1549 because of a mistake made
in the contractor's bid, was verified
last night when the board, after grant
ing the refund, went Into executive ses
sion for fifteen minutes, reconsidered the
action and refused to grant the request
"The contractor met me at Sixteenth
and Farnarn streets," said President
Holovtchiner In the secret session, "and
told me that he stood to lose S1.000 al
together if the $549 was not refunded, and
told me he'd split the amount with me
if I'd put through a resolution refund
Ing the money. I told him to go to hell
and that's the reason I voted against
the resolution, although the man was
really entitled to the refund.1 , k
Members Foster, Walker, Holovtchiner
and Sears voted against the refund reso
lution when It came up for consideration
' "There's" something wrong here," said
Sears, "that cannot be discussed In pub-
lie."
How tt Started.
In bidding on one of the new schools
this contractor was 13,000 low, but he
claimed a clerical error had been made
and the word "deduct" used before Bed
ford stone Instead of "add." All other
bids had said "add" If Bedford stone was
used, and In another bid he had said
"add."
"Not knowing what Is back of the
case." said Foster, explaining his vote,
"I will vote for the refund, because there
is all the evidence to justify the statement
that it was a clerical error."
Jaoobeon held the same view and six
members voted for the refund. Then
Chairman Richardson of the finance com
mittee, a few seconds later, moved that
the board go Into an executive session
and in two minutes after the session
was completed the refund resolution had
been rescinded.
John Latenser, the - school board's
architect, had written the board a letter,
stating the facts. It appeared that when
the contract was let the contractor dis
covered the error and asked that it be
corrected. This Latenser refused. The
contractor then said he would let It go
and run his chances of recovering from
the board.
Auditing Employes Acroanta.
Chairman Richardson Of the finance
committee was roundly lambasted by
President Holovtchiner and Attorney Her
ring for hiring an expert accountant to
audit the accounts of the superintendent
of buildings and the custodian.
Holovtchiner called Parsons to the chair
and protested against the appointment
because it was a waste of money. He
said there should not be an audit at this
time, but after the close of the fiscal
year. A new set of rules drafted by
Attorney Herring and adopted by the
board last night, took away from Rich
ardson's committee the. power of ap-
pointing an auditor and having the books
of the custodian and the superintendent
of buildings checked. ?
Walker said it was the "height of folly,"
but these sub-officers had to be started
out with "clean sheets" next year, after
whloh the board could do Its own audit
ing. The books of any of the officers,
hev said, ought to be in shape for the
auditor at a minute's notice.
Richardson Calls Holovtchiner.
Richardson answered Holovtchiner with
the statement that the appointment of an
expert ' at 110 a day to work sixty
days was done with the personal knowl
edge and consent Of the president
While Holovtchiner said that was true,
the committee ought not to have ap
pointed the accountant now. but at the
close of the fiscal year, when his wort
would not have required more than two
or three days. ' " f ' '"
No interference with the appointment
will be made, but hereafter the board will
attempt to keep Its own affairs In order
and cut out the expense of an auditor.
The city comptroller audita the secretary's
books monthly.
WOMAN'S CLUB MEMBERS
ATTACK SQUEAKY CHAIRS
s
No more squeaky chairs for the Omaha
Woman's club. This organitatlon at its
opening meeting of the season yesterday
at the Metropolitan building, revolted
against the collapsible and audible seats
on which it sat at all last year's meetings.
"The chairs squeak more than they did
last year," protested Mrs. J. H. Dumont.
and her chair creaked as she rose to make
her protest "No matter how carefully we
get up and sit down the chairs will
squeak." ,
"Not only that," supplemented Mrs.J.
P. wtite, "but these chairs can't be
remedied. I know them. They scream all
the time." (
Mrs. Albert Edholm moved that the
club ask Wlllard Chambers, manager of
the building, to provide non-creakable
chairs. The motion was passed unani
mously. It was also voted to renew the
lease on the club rooms for the present
season. 4
Mrs. C. W. Hayes, the new president
gave her keynote speech In which she
emphasized the importance of club women
taking active Interest In present day
movements for reform. Officers and
chairmen of committee made reports,
