A Resolution to This Effect Carries by a Vote of Eight to Five After a Long and Bite + ter Fight. The erection of 8 temporary building on the high school grounds was the one absorbing topic at the board of education meeting last night. Immediately after roll call a resolution passed by the Central labor union, request- ingthe board of education to take steps toward securing the location of a branch of the state normal school in Omaha, was read and referred to the committce on normal schools. The committee on supplies recom- mended that the contracts for supplying 1 be awarded to Havens & Co,, and to Mount & Griffin. Adopte laims reported with a ndation that claims aggreguting be paid.

Marrison moved an amendment to limit the cost of the building to $7,000, and Dr. Gibbs moved that the limit be placed at §,000. These amendments were lost. The original resolution was then put toa Yyote and was carried by a vote of 3 to 5. Those voting in the affirmative were Bab- cock, Coryell, Gibbs, Kelley, McQonnell, Populeton, Spaulding’ and Webrer. Those voting in the negative were Coburn, Martin, Morrison, Points and Goodman. The matter of transferring children from one school to another was placed in the hands of Superintendent James. Mr. Babcock from the committee on build- ings and property, although not chairman of the committee, submitted a report upon the resolution just offered by Mr. Corvell to the effect that the committee bad considered the resolution and now recommends secretary be avthorized to advertise at once for bids for the proposed buildingon the hixh hool grounds in accordance with specifica- tyns submitted, and that the building be ready for use by October 15, 1590, Mr. Martin was upon his feet instantly and it was evident that he was not in good humor. He called attention to the * fact that the committee had met at 11 0'clock yesterday and made outa report upon a resolution that had Yot come before the board until 10 o'clock last night In short, the resolution offered by Curyell had never been before the committeée, and yet the committee brougnt mna report on the same. Martin held that it was impossible to uecept @ report in so irregular a manner. He also referred feelingly to the fact that he, as chairman of the committee, had not been wsked to submit the report of the committee, After twenty minutes of wrangling, the res- olution was recommitted, and the board took a recess of ten minntes to permit the com- mittee to consider the matter and bring in a report. After the recess the same rey was brought in by the committee, and Martin also submitted 8 minority report, in which he stated that in Lis judgment there was ) ne- cessity for an eight-room building on the high school grounds, and that facilities for the children of that locality could be provided elsewhere, and that not warrant the ex- penditure of the mouey necessary to erect this building. The minovity report was defeated, and the majorit roport was adopted by the same vote of 8to5. The board then adjourned. il Gl Dr. Birney cures hay fever. Lanladiic w Ldy A BLOODTHIRSTY Bee bldg.

Turkle, who preaches his first sermon as pastor of the Kountze Memorial Lutheran clhurch today, comes from Hills- borough, I, after a very successful pas torate of four years. He is about thirty years old. He attended Wittenburg seminary, and afterwards took a course at Yale college, where he graduated with honors. He preached at Kountze Memorial church once during the past summer, when here simply on a visit. The members of the church were very highly pleased with his effort at that time. He was subsequently urged to a call from the nd after due ation with promi- the denomination, was con 1t was his duty to come to Omaha. e of his present con ation are ant over his scceptance, and that with ssistance of his wife he will be able to do agreat deal for the advancement of the churen. v.

M Holt About three yearsago the church-going people who reside in the vicinity of Cali- fornia and Thirty-second streets saw the necessity of organizing & Sunday school in that vicinity. Classes were first held in a grove during the summer. When winter drew near the school had grown to such pro- portions that it seemed undesirable to dis- band. With the assistence of church people in other parts of the city and other benevo- lently inclined citizens a’lot was secured and a small chapel was built and the Park Place Congregational society was organized. Rev. M. Holt was called to take charge of the congregation. Since then the mmbcnhl&hu coustantly increased in members and spiritual zeal. The financial burden, however, has been very heavy. The city has not grown in that di- rection so mEidly as had been anticipated, and some of the members of the church have moved away from locality. This has, of course, weakened the congregation and the expense of kmini;p both preaching and Suuday school has become too great for the e'to bear, Mr. Holt has, therefore, decided to resign his pastorate in order to lighten the burden and the nday school, which now has 140 children in attendance, will be continued while the congregation will pa- tiently wait for better times, when the debt restingupon them will be lifted and the church again supplied with a pastor, N g d app it would be i he teaches from A Tribute to Dr. Ayres, The following tribute to the late Dr.George B. Ayres delivered at his funeral by Savidge and is reproduced by he request of the widow of the Tue Bre decease We come here today as friends, neighbors and brothers to pay the last tokens of respect aud love to the memory of Dr. George B. Ayres. I realize that I have lost a personal friend in thisman. A few weeks ago, when I took the pastorate of Newman M. E. church. Dr, Apyres said to his wifeas ne saw me H “I believe in that man. 1 believe be is hon- est and sincere and ] shall help him all I can and shall find my way to his chure But the rider on the pale horse him and be answered “aye.” A few years age I met Dr. Ayresin a ma ter that concerned us both, and he dee) impressed me, once for all, with his splendid manhood. He was my ideal man in his per- son 1l as to form ‘with a refined and in. tellectual face, and, at all times, and in all places, and to all people, the courtly, chivai rous gentleman. He had a fine mind by nature and this had been matured and rendered most effective by profound study. 1t is admitted by all that he was an able phy- sician and surgeon. Thoush e was only in the bloom and flower of his young manhood, he took very high rank in’ his profession. He read disease as we read the pages of an open book, and God helped him to administer rignt remedies. In dificult cases of surgery he was atjhome. Though he had a most tender heart he was also the possessor of nerves of steel which never failed bim when human life hung in the balance. He was devo'ed to his profession. When the blizzard of 1585 filled the roads with snow so that it was impossible for him to drive his horses, at the perilof his ownlife, in the dead of night, he walked long distances to bring relief to the suffering. Isaid a moment ago that this man was kind-hearted—he was kind even to the lower orders of creation. He would not set his foot ona worm that crossed his path. The last Sunday morning that he spent on earth, he was driving tothe homeof his parents in company with his beloved wife, when he saw in the roada little chie that had wandered from the brood. Stopping his carriage, he alighted and returned the little lost one w its mother, Was it strange that men and women in- stinctively trusted this man! After he was dead his near neighbor said : *“He never deceived me, be was incapable of falsehood.” A noted man In this ci'y said “He was the best friend I ever had; be brought me back from the gates of death.” He was a busy man—a tireless worker. He never idled a moment. His hands were never folded until iu his cofin. He was always at the bedside of the sick orin the study. He was a practical man. al.- attended strictly and faithfully to the details of busi- ness. Those who are to look over his books will find that he had the reins of his business well in hand and that he was wonderfully blessed in temporal af- fairs, adding one piece of property after another to his estate. Whbile many another dissipated and was profligate of money, ne was sober, frugal and thnfty. What an example he was to young business and professioual men ! The years of his life were few, but he lived intensely and made a splendid record. We leave him in the hauds of his God. To his wife and his father and mother, 1 | would say, *“The same Christ who wept at the grave of Lazarus with the sisters, is here to sustaln and comfort and bless you. To you who are his neighbors and friends | and Lrothers, I would say: *‘Let us be ready for the | great journey he | | dist free churches of Great Britain was held | was held last month in Bristol.
