The body was broughit, warm and bleeding, to the collexe where it was received by Per. who did all he could to destroy the woman's identification, such as cutting off and burn- ing the bair and washing away the blood.

Other towns have been working for months to prepare induce- ments to offer for the location of the university, York, Lincoln, Central City and other locations have of fered liberal inducements for the loeation of the institution. Whatever 1s done must be done at once. He referred to the desirability of Omaha asa loea- tion, and expressed his opinion that this 18 the only city in the state at which the college can be made successful. Mr. B. C.

The school should be loeated where 200 students ean be placed in it the first teem. Omaha needs aschool in which her children ean be educated in anches instead of sending them institutions. Mr. Patterson said he would be one of twenty men to give $100,000 to the project if an institu- tion is built to cost at least $100,000. Judge J. M. Thurston was next cg upon.

He said that this )e'best done by education in daenomina- tional schools., Mr. Thurston said that h will demand the attention of the twentieth century will be the dissemination of education founded religious principles. He spoke of the many advantages in having the colicge located in Omaha. Such a location would be better for the school, the students and all concerned.

President Meyer said that the committee appoini to place the advantages of Omaha befor the Indian commissioner, with a view to securing the re-location of the Indian supply depot, now at New York, in this city, had called upon the ofticer men- tioned aud spoken in fuvor of Omaha. But no action had been taken, nor would there be until next Tuesday, The proposed amendment to the hy- laws was introduced. Mr, Clark moved its adoption and Mr. Goodman offered a second. It is as follows ‘The business of sald corporation shall be conducted by a board of dircetors, nine in number, to be elecied by the members, such election'to take place on the fst Monday of January of each year, as hereinafier pro- vided. “Ai the first annual meeting, after the adoption of this amended article, the diree- tors then elected shail determine by lot their respective ters of service 1 sucl & mauner that three of such directors shall serve for one year, three for two vears and threo for three years.

The question of théh raising the initia- tion fee to $500 was introduced Mr. Iler did not think the time had to come for the adoption of the amendme: The board had a membership of but 152, and that number was not sufficiontly representative of aeity of $100,000 peovle Five hundred dollar¥ #ould stop a number of merchants from” becoming members They had not done much hey had no I and fhity should not kill the board by raising the price so high as to exclude good members Mr. Dufrene thought th should be was carried unani- ble to jom the assoc now, for $350 was getting 1n ver, ‘e price ought to be considered investment when the value of the certifi eate was considered Mr. ller wanted to encourage new com ©rs to join the association and thought it would be to the advantage of the board to admit many of those new people even if they should be permitted to come in #50. They should net tax these new comers, ‘They were eontributing to the suceess of the place by what they had paid for their real estate and in the rents, which are now three times as high they were three years ago Mr. Garnean Iooked upon the bo: as a mercantile association and not one for the transaction of any particular fine of business. For that reason, he thought members ought to be encourdaged to join, which could'not be done by rmsing the initiation feo. Mr. Brunner thought that, after the board should get into its new qu many more members might be expected to join if the initiation fee were left as it is at prosent. Q. G. Clark thought the tim 1o limit the membership and tiation fee Max Meyer thought they would not be able to get 500 members “even if the fc was 2100, Besides, he would rather hay 100 good members than 6500 poor ones He was in favor of some raise in the initiation fee. But he did not exactly favor $500. Mr. Tower felt that $230 would react to the benelit of Omaha, Mr. Dufrene wanted the matter to be placed on & business basis and it would he found that, in paying %500, the mem- ber would find that” he” was getting the benefit of his money.

With reference to Mr. Brunner’s reso- lution introduced at the last meeting, to increase the county board to five mem- bers the gentleman thougnt the the peo- ple ought to take some interest in the matter. They should have a county board who should have meetings at stated times, also a county auditor to check up the accounts of the eommis- sioners, who, at present had nobody to check them up except the men they ~ em- ployed for the purpos¢, He then intro- duced a reselution that his last resolution offered at the last meeting be referred to the committee of fifteen on charter amendments, The motion prevailed.
