——— et ———————————————————————————————————— HE IS SHORT ONE HUNDRED Oollector Sperling of Provident Insurance Oompany Missing and Cash Gone, KEPT A PART OF HIS COLLECTIONS Thought that an Examination of the Books Will Show that He Has Taken a Stitl Lurger Amount—Supérintendent Files Complaint. Frederick Van Seggern, superintendent of the Provident Life Insurance company, has filed a complaint against his Arthur Sperling, for embezzlement. Mr. Van Seggern says that Sperling had been doing collecting on quarterly premium polictes and other policies, upon which part of the premium was payable monthly. He was empowered to give receipts for money collected, but in making returns to his company he turned over a, portion of the amounts collected, retaining the balance himself, notwithstanding he gave a receipt in tull to the parties from whom the amounts were collected. The individual amount was usually less than $10 and Sperling would turn over probably $5. In the aggregate these figured up quite a sum, and when the report was made the total shortage was so great that Mr. Van Seggern told Sperling that collections must be falling off; that the returng were not what they should be. Finally the superintendent became sus- pliclous. About two weeks ago he sald to Bperling: I would like to go over your Jist wi 1 am afrald you have made The young man was assistant, This was on Saturday, and the following Monday was the day fixed for going over the accounts. The Sunday intervening Sperling Jeft home, telling his wife he was going out of the city on business and would return in three days. He has not put in an appear- an, Sperling was a young man of good habits, and the only vice that Mr. Van Seggern thinks he might have fallen into 18 gambling. Mrs. Bperling Is heartbroken, and 5o are the friends of the young man, among whom he was well tiked. He had a good position and large salary. Sperling was bonded in the American Surety company, which will make good his shortage, which, as far as his accounts have been gone over, is about $100, but Mr. Van Seggern thinks it will be much larger than this when the examination is complete. gt Don't Delay. 1t is your duty to yourself to get rid of the foul accumulation in your blood this epring.

Inspectors Profit by Dissension—Condition of Union cific Depot. There was a deadlock in the Board of Health-yesterday on the question of the re- moval of three inspectors as directed by the retrenchment resolution of the city council. When the resolution was received Commi sioner Saville laid off Inspectors Albrecht, Smith and Landergren and reported the fact to the board yesterday. Bruner kicked on the suspension of Albrecht, and Duncan wanted Smith retained or else the suspension of three inspectors alternately each month, The motion to approve the action of the commissioner was lost, McAndrews siding with the dissatisfied members and the mayor and chief of police voting with the commis- sloner. Landergren was finally suspended on ac count of the charges filed by Councilmen Back, Howell and Parker, stating that he had {nsulted them while lobbying in the in. terests of an additional health appropriation and then the fight was renewed on the other two vacancies to be created. Duncan's mo- tion to lay off two Inspectors each month alternately was lost by the same division as before and then he successively moved that each of the other inspectors, except those suspended by the commissioner, be suspended. The question was lost in each instance on the same tie vote, and the mat- ter finally ended with no suspensions and alt the inspectors except Landergren are still drawing,pay. The garbage matter was treated in a similar fashion and® after a long wrangle was lald over until the next meeting. Chief Seavey moved that it was the sense of the board that the garbage should be removed atsthe expense of the city and that the city council be requested to pass an ordinance to that effect. . This was lost, Bruner, Dun- can and McAndrews voting in the negative. Commissioner Saville proposed that dumips be designated at the foot of Davenport street and Poppleton avenue, but this falled to find favor. The “applications of Charles Schlegel, John Nordstrom and the Washing- ton Creamery company for milk licenses were favorably considered. Health Commissioner Saville's report on the sanitary condition of the Union Pacific depot was: it “That the bullding is Inadequate for the accommodation of the large number of people assembled there at the time of the arrival and departure of passenger trains. In such cases, in cold weather, the building being without ventilation, the air becomes heated and foul and is only relieved by opening the door and permiiting the cold air to sweep through the rooms, subjecting those of dellcate constitutions’ to colds dangerous to health and often to life. The plumbing fixtures are not of the best class and are carelessly cared for as shown by the absence of a valve in the trap which permits of a discharge of foul alr from the sewer into the room. Open- ings in the floor permit washings of the floors, particularly of the closets, to saturate the ground beneath the building, promoting decay of the timbers and decomposition of organic matters in the soil, the emanation from which returns to the rooms through these openings, contaminating the air of the whole building. This badly built wooden structure belng set low on a porous soil, satu- rated with the drainage from the building and adjacent grounds, offering the best con- ditions _for decay, is every year becoming more dilapidated 'and. dangerous. In my opfnion the city of Omaha should not permit such a building to remain a menace to the life ‘and health of the traveling public.” Mr. Duncan’s report. stated that the water closets did not flush- quickly enough to be strictly sanitary, and that the absence of. a continuous flow in the urinals caused a dis- agreeable odor, that escaped into the wait- ing rooms and’ was very offensive. He rec- ommended that these matters be attended to and that a double ventilating shaft be con- structed fu _each closet room. The board adjourned to meet next Mon- day, when a special committee, consisting of Bruner, Saville and Seavey, will report on the charges agwinst Inspector Landergren. [ COUNTY COUMMISSIONER. Charles Brown's Letter Opposing Platte River Canal Honus. At the meeting of the county commis- sloners, held yesterday afternoon, Charles H. Brown filed a communication relative to the proposed voting of $1,000,000 of bonds to ald in the construction of the Platte piver canal, He was of the opinion that the fs. suance of such bonds to aid a private enter prise would be jllegal and void, 1If there was to be a canal built, he thought that it should be constructed, owned and operated by the county, especially if the greater portion of tho expense was to be borne by the ta: payers of the: county, Regarding the call- ing of a special clection, he gave it as his view that the canal company should show enough faith in the project to put up the expenses of holding the special election. The communication was referred to the commit- tee of the whole, Judge Lake, speclal attorney for the Board of County Commissioner: gave it as his legal opinion that the Odd Fellows' prop erty at Fourteenth and Dadge streets was not exempt from taxation, not coming under that class of property that was used for charitable, or religious purposes. The request to cancel the taxes on the Young Men's Christian association property for the y 1892, 1593 and 1894 was re- Jected, the commissioners holding that they had no authority for striking the property from the tax rolls of the county. Outstanding warrants against the hospital bullding fund agsregating $$71 were ordered pajd The salary of the stenographier in the office of the county attorney was increased from $40 to $45 per month, T —— Secretary Carlisle Won't be at the Woodmen of the World's excursion and plenle at Burlington beach next Thursday, but that's no reason why you shouldn’t be present, Tickets cost only $1.10 and the special train leaves at 8:30 a. m.

CLERKS' BIG EXCURSION Eleven Coaches Full of Happy Escur 15ts Who Ci ing that Added New Life and Smoothed Out Some of Care’s Wrinkles, me Home After an Ou There is a saying to the effect that the atmospheric conditions are such as to produce fce when everybody Is pleased, but yesterday disproved that statement at least as far as the 700 Jolly pienicers who attended Hayden Bros. excursion to West Point were con- cerned. Eleven coaches carried into Omaha last night one of the best pleased crowds that ever tired themselves out In having a rous- ing good time, each after his or her own particular style of fun. The train had not pulled out of Omaha ten miles before mothers and fathers ceased to tell the children they shouldn’t do #o and so, and from that time on you could put sand or a chunk of ige down your neighbor's back and it is doubtful if you could arouse a “kick.”” Good nature was catehing. The ride in itself was most delightful and refreshing. The day was an ideal one, and Messrs. Jamieson and Isensee, who arranged the excursion can congratulate themselves on having taken out of Omaha a party that represented the best element of the city's population so far as orderly conduct was concerned. The cars were decked with streamers and star spangled bunting, and the train of two engines, one “‘commissary” and eleven coaches reached West Point about 11 o'clock. A reception committee, headed by Hon. Otto Baumann, met the excursionists at the depot, and accompanied by the Wisner band, led the way through the town to a handsome natural grove, where tables, set- tees, swings and a dancing platform had been provided by the reception committee There was no formality about the reception. The party was informed that it owned the town and to go in and make the best of it. When the city council learned that the pid- nicers were coming they got together, slicked up the town, hung out banners of welcome and otherwise exerted themselves to please. That's the sort of town West Point is. If there ever was a small-souled man in West Point he left long ago, because he felt lonesome. The ubiquitous Fred Son- nenschein is a whole reception committee in himself. If the trees wern't located in just the right spot to sult an individual he would have them pulled up by the roots and lo- cated elsewhere. Such is the opinion of the picnicers. Some of the party went fishing, some boat- ing, some went bathing, some lay in their hammocks, while others took part in the numerous games or danced to the music of the Seventh Ward band, which was engaged for the day by Hayden Bros. The firm also furnished .seventy-five gallons of lce cream, barrels of lemonade, 500 loaves of bread, boiled hams, becf and everything needed for the hungry or the thirsty. The West Point creamery furnished the treat of the day. They brought several hun- dred gallons of buttermilk. They also fur- nished delicious rolls of the celebrated West Point creamery butter, enough to supply all. THE GAMES. The contests for the ten prizes were handled to good advantage and complete satisfaction by Charles N. Gurley and J. B. Preston, the former acting as starter and the latter as judge and time keeper, with P. J. Byrnes as master of ceremonies. The results were as follows: rst—Fifty-yard foot race by girls under 15.

Prize, five pounds of caramels;.won by Miss Ida Bloch. The ball games were very Interesting. The game between the N. B.. Falconer club and Hayden Bros. nine was'a fine exhibition of ball playing. The score was 9 to § in favor of the Falconer team. Among the Falconers are some boys who will be heard from in the future, if they continue to play ball as they do now.
