ALLEGE RIVALRY
CAUSE OF RAID
' ON GREEK CLUB
Officer Peters, Single-Hand
ed, Arrests Eight Members
Four Are Fined for
Gambling.
Rivalry between two Greek clubs
in the city is assigned as the reason
why Foliceman J. C. Peters, menv
, ber of a Greek club on South Thir
teenth street, raided single-handed
the club rooms of the Demosthenes
society, near Sixteenth and Chicago
streets, members of the Demosthe
nas club assert.
Four members of the club were
fined $5 and costs each in Central
police court yesterday on a charge
of gambling. Four other members of
the club who were arrested were
discharged.
Policeman Peters testified that
several card games were in progress
with $6 in change lying on the
tables when he entered the rooms
with drawn gun. Several of the
players sought escape down a fire
escape, Peters said.
The following were fined: Pete
Thornpason, 316 North Sixteenth
street, charged with being keeper of
the place; Chris and Sam Paulos,
Long Pine, Neb.: and Harry Mari
tas, 538 South Twenty-eighth ave
nue. ,'
William Mellotn's, Council Bluffs,
Nick Limbris, 204 South Thirteenth
street, Theodore Karos, 114 North
Eighteenth street, and Harry
Mitchakes, 1311 Douglas street,
were dismissed. "

Commissioner.
Tir: T. T. Edwards, health com
missloner, states that prevalence of
colds and catarrhal conditions in
Omaha at this time are symptom
tie of an outbreak of influenza.
"I am not predicting that there

I am convinced that conditions war
rant me in warning people to be
careful." he said.
The health commissioner stated
that two definite cases of influenza
have been reported this week and
that four were reported earlier in
the winter.
The doctor warns Omahans that
colds are infectious and he urges

The reoaving of Sixteenth itreet
is again before the city council, the
difficulty being to decide -whether
the repaying shall extend north of
Victor avenue.
The council, more than a year
ago. passed an ordinance creating a
Idistrict on Sixteenth street, from
Douglas street to Victor avenue,
under provisions of a law which au
thorizes the council to order these
imorovements within one mile and
a half from the city hall, without
requiring petitions from property
owners, ihe ola asphalt pavement
extends beyond Victor avenue to
Wirt street, and it is the sense of
some of the property owners to re
pave St least to Wirt street
Another ordinance provides for a
paving district from Victor avenue
to Ames avenue, under the main
thoroughfare" act. but it is uncer
tain whether this act applies.
The street railway company has
agreed to move its tracks from Sev
enteenth to Sixteenth street in con
nection with the repaying.
Ihis repaying from Douglas to
Wirt streets would draw $33,000
from the intersection bond fund
which is limited to $93,000, with $20,
000 deducted for contracts let last
fall for- 'work to be started this
spring.
