It is 5 per month.

The proprietors of these B R TR time, and are now required to pay a license the same as the men who run the big games.

MAYNE, ha’s Progress INCE 1884. Can be realized best by those who ean recall to memory the old sites which have been selected for the magnificent structures recently completed, The first selected by the ambitious fathers of our Gate City, was for the erce« tion of a more elaborate temple of justice, and not a stone was left unturned until their ambition was gratified and they completed the noble and hand- scme Court House Which is elevated to that point that its towering cupalo can be scen for miles around, to say nothing of the mechanical skill that is displayed both inside and out, composing designs purely new and original, with points that are equal to any, if not surpassing all others on the continent. The next step on foot, was taken to erect an EXPOSITION BUILDING And the site selected on the northeast cormer of 15th and Capitol Avenue, which stood for many years unoccupied, and was merely a resort as a child- ren’s playing ground. This most beautiful picce of mechanical skill is strik- ing to the pride of every heart in the Gate City, and well we can feel prond cof this bestowing feature to our city, as it is equal to that of any in the larger cities east. These fe:lll;l'fls show what enterprise can do for a once called “small western town;” and now with the site which has recently been the pur- chase of Hon. Wm. Paxton, on Farnam street, between 15th and 16th streets, adjoining the site of the old court house, with a view to erect his new hotel which when completed promises to eclipse anything in the hotel line on the American continent. Mr. Paxton is a worthy citizen and deserves praise for the interest he takes in beautifying the city. Last but notleast was the es- tablishing of The Misfit Clothing Parlors Who now occupy 1119 Farnam street, the land mark so long recognized as the stand of the popular grocers, J. B. French & Co. The Parlors have re- cently completed extensive improvements which beautifies the rooms so that they are equal to the neatest in the west. The Parlors also deserve credit for the progress they have made in winning the many hard fought battles of com- petition, and in dressing the people of Omaha with such exquisite taste, and saving them from 50 to 100 per cent on cach purchase. The Parlors are the gossip of today, and not only a thing of the past. Should you meet a friend who appears more neatly clad than the majority of men seen on the street,asle him where he buys his clothing, you will find him ready tosay, AT THE MISFIT PARLORS.
