THE OMAHA DAILY BEE, ATURDAY, AUGUST 1801 -TWELVE IT COMES ENTIRELY T00 HIGH. Barber Asphalt Wanted for Paving but is Wanted Oheaper, BIDS ON SIDEWALK STONE LAID OVER, Matter Left for the Council to Decide —Contracts tor Geading Awarded ~Minor Public Works Discussed. The board of public works held a meeting yesterday afternoon, and, as usual the Bar- ber asphalt company was not in it toany great extent, The board nad advertised for bids for pav- ing Seveateenth street from Harney to St. Marys avenuo, But one bid was there for consideration, That one was from the Bar- ber company and was £2.08 per square yard for sheet asphaltum, form “A." It was ovened and read during the early hours of the session, after which it was laid away until just before adjournment, when it formed the subject for an interesting discus- sion, Chairman Birkhauser moved the rejection of the bid and that the board readvertise. He explaited his reasons by urging that the figures were exorbitant in comparison with those charged in other citics. He expressed the opinion that the board had a duty to per- form in looking aftor the interests of tho tax- payers aud the public, Major Furay admitted the intercst, but opined that for soven years the people had mado fools of themseives by paying high prices. Heo thought that if the taxpayers wanted asphalt they should have it, even if they did pay extravagant prices. The pav ment hiad never been laid for less than $2 per yard, and if people wanted asphalt he would advisc them to sign for it He did not feel like setting his opinion up against that of the people, und they could have whateyer they wanted, the bourd not having any string on_them. Chuirs Furay, perform, mattd m an Birkhauser differed with Major Ho thought the board bad duty to d ought to_use judgment in some 1f the board did not decide, the nbers might as well resign, save the city their salaries and let the secrétary open tho bids and refer them to the council. He ferred that it was the duty of the board to reject exorbitant bids. If this had been practiced years ago the city could have saved £00,000 on its public works. His iden was that it was belter to begin late than never. Major sible to say anything too Barver company.

Major Furay spoke i favor of excluding some of tae material on which bids had been received, using the argument that some of the stone avas unfit for sidewalks. Chairman Birkhauser did not propose to reject. board lad designated certain kinds of material and he did not believe in inviting competition nud then rejecting the bids, notwithstunding that the same course had ' been pursued ouly half an hour before. Mr. Birkhauser thought the duty of the board was to open the bids, tabulate them and lot the council make the award. Again Major Furay insisted upon rejecting some of tho bids, arguing that they were 100 high and that the board had the power to do so. Chairman Birkhauseragreed that tho board bad the power, but did not think it best to do s0. Major Furay thought it would be better than to be cowards and not make any award, Colonel Egbert stal that when the board bad opened the bids then its duty ended. With this understanding the lowest bids on the respective material will bo reported to the council. Contractor Gallagher who was an interest- ed spectator stated that it was the duty of the board to make the awaras, but that it did not dare to de so, although it has fre- quently rejected material for curbing and paving that was called for iu the specifica- tons. For erading streets, awarded as follows: Mahoney & Nolan, Thirtieth street, from Arbor street morth, 119 cents; Thirtieth street, from Half Howard to Jackson, 10 cents, J. M. Croft, Thirty-ninth street, Cuming to Burt, 13 cents. Jash Brothers, IPourth avenue, Fourth avenue to the north line of view addition, 11.9 cents per cubic yard. Tliere were two bids for removing the old buildine ut Twenty-first and Cuming streets and the one at Thirty-fifth and Burt streets. They were referred 1o the council and tho city attorney to ascertain if thoe board had o riiht to romove a building that had been de- clared a nuisance, For filling lots that are covered with stag- nant water und have been declared a nui- sance, the contract was divided between Katz & Calloghan and _George Canfield. Their bids ranged from 15 to cents per cubic yard for the earth to be used. George Canfield was awarded the contract for filling the cesspool at the hospital. He agrced to fill the bole and furnish the earth for 15 cents per cubie yard, The question of réplanking tho Eleventh and Sixtecnth stroets viaducts was consid- ered and the chairman instructed to adver- tiso for bids for doing the work. .

The object of ths association is to assist the state board of health in the enforcement of the law enacted at tho last session of the legislaturo pertaining to_the practice of medicine in Nebraska. This law becomes operativo today, and makes it incumbeut upon all physicians who desire to practico medicine in the state of Nebraska to subinit to the inspection of the board which, 1f found suficient to a certficate from the READY Omaha diplomas of health, will entitle them board of health, Dr. Leisenring was elected tomporary chairman and Dr. (. P, Wilkinson secsetary Dr. A. K. Jonas from the committce up- pointed at a previous meeting to secure o complete list of all the physicians properly recorded in Douglas county reported that the list would be secured very shortly. Dr. H. Gifford from the "committee ap- pointed to prepure a constitulion and by-law; reported that the sume had been prepared. Ho then proceeded to read the constitution and by-laws which were approved by the. association. Dr. Joseph Nevillo was chosen president, msley vice president, Dr. Sprague urer aud Dr. Wilkinson secretary. The following physicians were elect s a board Of censors to protect the association against the admission of members who have no right to membership: Drs. Peabody, Wilkinson, Crummer, Sprague and Keye There was a good deal of discussion over the matter of inducing the state board of health to hold a session in Omaha so that it would not bo necessary to send the diplomas to Lincoln. Several of the physicians present said they would not like to run the risk of sending their diplomas to Lincoln and did not sce why the three sceretaries h the board ot health will employ could not come to Omaha and make the examina- tions hero und then report to the board, It was decied by resolution to have the secretary correspond with Governor Thayer and otoer members of the bourd of hedlth with regard to the matter.

Some months ago the city council and the board of county commissioners locked horns over a cosspool at the county poor farm. Tho fight was carried into the deliberations of both bodies. In the former body the mem- bers insisted upon the filling of the cesspool, while in the latter it was given out that nothing of the kind would be done. . At last the county has surrendered and the councilinen of thogpity are smiling on ac- count of having won the fight. The cesspools in question are at the inter- soction of Pacific street and the Belt Line tracks. Thoy were formed by nature und during the greater portion of the year are filled with stagnant water to a depth of ten to tweuty feet. To add to the nuisance the Lospital people for a year or more have been rucuing their sewerage into the pools. People living in_the vicinity have potitionod the commissioners time and again to abate the nuisance, but as the board paid no atten- tion to the appeals, property own- ers turned their attention to labor- ing with the ci council. The lots being within the city limits, the council authorized the board of works to advertiso for bids for filing the lots. An advertisement was duly inserted, and this afternoon the contract was to have been lot. Early yestorday tho commissionors were on hand, and_after a talk with the chairman of ' the board of public works, agreed to fill tho lots at once. Chairman O'Keeffe of the county board at once drove to the poor farm, and ordered Canfield & Ryan, who have a grading contract, to use _theit surplus earth in filling three ' holes. To do this will require 7,000 yards of earth, The new move malkes it abso'utely necessary for the hospital uitary sewer connec- fon with the city system. In view of this act, the board will at its session tod: insiruct the clerk to invita bids for the cor ,000 feet of S-inch scwer.

The good monk was found one day last week bruised and bleeding on the bank of a stream at the foot of a precipice near La Grande Chartreuse, There the monk laid bleeding and groaning, incapable of moving hand or foot, his body rosting half in and half out of the waters of the torrent for two whole days, At the expiration of that time, a shephierd who had driven his flock down to water heard the dying monk's ans, and hastening to the spot he tenderly out of the water and N for assistance us fast as his legs would carry.
