These winged tables (with a semi-circular overhang on each side) have always been a familiar sight in clubs and private libraries. They have heretofore been built only to order. This season for the first time we can supply such a table at low cost. They are mmensely convenlent. On these two great semi-circular projections may be placed a vase, ornaments, flowers, a file of books, writing materials or the late maga- zines. They are very spaclous and give to any table a distinguisiied look. Tho low ehelf takes an exactly opposite shape, which permits ample room for the drawing-In of a cnair if it is desired to use one of the overhangs as desk. We divide the box framing into two large arawers, operated from the ends of the table. The legs of this table are composed of clus tered pillars with bead molding; decoratively they are very effective. Chas.

Certainly nat from the machine, the ward heclers, the election b'hoys. “The good citizen must be taught that no { city government can rise above the level of | those governed. He muat be taught that theories of civil government do not work re forms. Sentiment is good enough and the- orias are fne educators. But while senti- ment and theories are diffused rhrough a precinet, perhaps in the course of years votes will sweep a whole city on a day. Papers were also read by Rev. Gregory J Powell, secretary of the Municipal league of Omaha; Lucius B. Swift of Indianapolts, William Kennedy, mayor of Allegheny, Pa., and Hon. E. J. Blandin of Cleveland Mr. Powell's paper on “The Municipal Con- ition of Omaha" was “Forty-one years ago the postmaster of | Omaha carried around his office in his hat Taday re is nearing completion a postofiice building which occuples a whole block, and will cost about $2,000,000. The straggling Indian village has become a city of 150,000 people, and of this growth nearly has come in the past fifteen years. thirty years ago, four-fifths In 18 the poet, Saxe, wrote, a visit to Omaha, the following verse t ever Leen to Omal Where flows the dark Missourl down, Where four strong horses scarce can draw An empty wagon through the town? “Where #and is blown from every mound To fill your eyes and ears and throat, Where all the steamers are aground, And all the shanties are afloat? “Where taverns have an anxious guest For every corner, shelf and crack, With half the people going west, And all the others going back? “Where theaters are all the run, And bloody scalpers come to trade, Where evervthing is over And everybody underpaid’ Please remember these verses were writ- ten of Omaha by a stranger on a wild and windy day full thirty years ago, in 1865, and not in 1895, “A city leaping from 20,000 in 1830 to over 100,000 in 1890, located where the sun shines after he has lighted up Chicago and St. Louis In the very heart of the boundless west, with agricultural, range and mineral resources which promise continuous colos- sal growth, it Is not strange that a city eager to woo to its budding enterprises the venturesome capital of older and more con- servative communities should, amidst the bustle and confusion of such times, barte away rights and franchises of such great value that now in the quieter days of sober reflection we are led, like Esau of old, to weep so readily we parted with our birth- right. Omaha has been the headquarters of the Union Pacific railroad for over thirty years. It is not to be wondered if some- thing of the same spirit dominant in that and kindred western institutions should find expression in municipal affairs. PRESENT FORM OF CITY GOVERNMENT. “The election for the city is held on the same day with the general election. Omaha is the only municipality in the state of which this is the case. We elect a mayor, elerk, treasurer, comptroller, police judge and nine councilmen at large every two years, and in the years alternating with this genoral city election we elect nine council- men, one from each ward. Our city council, therefore, consists of eighteen aldermen, who are pald $300 a year each. The Board of Public Works, consisting of a chairman and two commissioners, is appointed by the mayor and confirmed by the council. Qur Board of Fire and Police has been made up of five men, appointed by the governor of the state, excepting the mayor, who is ex- officio, its presiding officer. It is tri-parti san and is made up at present of two re- publicans, two populists and one democrat. Our Board of Park Commissioners is ap- pointed by the district court and may be sald to be entirely out of politics. Our Board of Health is strictly in politics. Like | the Board of Public Works, it consists of the mayor, a health commissioner, chief of police, plumbing inspector and two council- men, chairman of the streets and sewers committees. The health commissioner is appointed by the mayor, with the concur- rence of the council. “While we do not believe our city govern- ment is the worst, neither do we regard It as perfect. We could wisely cut our Board of Aldermen in two and thus have nine in- stead of eighteen men, as at present “We suffer also from too great a division of authority and responsibility in the exec- utive dcpartments. Only withs the consent of the council can the mayor appeint the city attorney, eity engineer, the Board of Public Works amd the health commissioner. There 18 & constant contest on between the departments and the council. When bpd work is done the fault cannot be traced to any one In particular. All inspectors are up- pointed by our political Board of Public| Works and the result is this Important de- artment s feeding ground for partisan | the | han | non-partisan, Israclites of old. The Philistines corporate greed and partisan spoils i camped not about, but within, our eity In- deed, they have taken our citadel, the city and have trained their guns so that | they easily commani every street and alley. | Our people, like that ancient people, quake | and tremble before the mighty host. For | years we have paid a heavy tribute to these | municipal freebeoters. Civic pride has lan- | of d and we have feared that our cit always remain cowed and hopeless | under the tyrant's heel. But a shepherd | boy has come among us who believes in God and in righteousness, and whose rising indignation has given birth to a great pur- pose, that in the name of God and the peo- Flo he will go out and slay the giant and | put to rout the army of the Philistines, The | shepherd boy is the reform organization, calle] the Municipal league. It does not set out in the partisan armor of a Saul, but rather with the simple sling of municipal, non-sectarian city government We have five stones for our sling, too, or rather rocks of truth. They are as follows: First, ‘Every citizen must take his part in the government of the city.’ An- other is that ‘city government is business, not politics,” and “therefore a third is ‘the separation of city from state and national sues.’ Qur fourth missile is that ‘the serv- ice of the city should Le entirely on the merit basis,’ and fifth is that ‘the city must our own and operate, in the interests of all the peorle, what franchised corporations monopolize for thelr private enrichment.’ may not be this year, and it it may not be next, but in less time than it took Da to work his way from the position of sheep herder to be Israel's king we expect to seat municipal reform upen our civic throne. “Indeed, the prospects are very good at this time that our city election next fall will be strietly non-partisan. The elements favorable to a business rather than a par- tisan administration are coming together on 2 municipal reform platform, and we sin- cerely hope and belleve that Omaha will be found well up near the head in the great world wide civic procession toward the ideal now 1t in municipal government.” t the afternoon session Vice President Charles Richardson of the National Municipal league_read an interesting paper on ‘“‘Muni- al Government of National Partles.” He spoke, in part, as follow: “Although the average citizen appears to be without any very adequate idea of either the nature or importance of good city govern- ment,” Mr. Richardson said in the beginnin “or the proper means of securing it, we may assume that a large majority of the voters are really in favor of it. If this ot the case there would be little use of at- tempting any kind of reform work except that _of a purely educational character. If it is the case, it Is obvious that in orler to make the wishes of the majority effective we must have a system which will enable them to unite for the nomination and tion of good municipal candidates.” PARKS UNFIT FOR CITY CONTROL. elec After discussing the methiod of political nomination of candidates for public ce, Mr. Richarson continuel: “kven if the machinery of the leading parties could be so purified and improved and their voters so educated and stimulated that their nomina- tions woull be really representative it would still be true that a national party is as unfit Lfor the government of a city as an ax is for digging potatoes or a spade for cutting down trees. The real issue in municipal elections relates solely to the management of munic pal business, and the custom of allowing such contests to be decided by combats be- tween national parties is just as irrelevant and absurd as the mediaeval plan of having a battle between two mail-clad knights in order to decide wch of their lady loves was the most beautiful.” Continuing the speaker said: “No one who 1is familiar with city politicians and ward workers can suspect them of being actuated as a class by a genuine devotion to great principles. There are few, if any whose moral perceptions are not’ blinded by their anxiety for personal and partisan success and by their bellef that that cess can only be achieved by Jthe those whose assistance must be with public offices, illegal protection opportunities for public plunder, It is therefore essentlal for the prosperity of our national parties that they should be forced to abandon municipal elections, which have been the chief attraction and the main sup- part of their present masters. Much might suc- aid of purchased or be sald of the advantages of municipal | parties in_teaching the voters to consider | their local interests and to be guided by their own opinions, Instead of acting as th dumb, driven cattle of unprincipled bosses The new system would certainly tend to develop Intelligent discrimination and in- dependence in the voters and a much larger proportion of our citizens would recognize the importance of honesty and ability in local officials, If no intruding thought of national lssues could blind them to the direct connection between their votes and the size of thelr tax bills, or the health, prosperity and beauly of their city. The | more we study the practical effects of a re- | publican form of government the clearer will | we perceive that it is the most powerful of | all buman agencies for either advancing or rotarding the woral. mental and material progress of the community In which it exists.'"

According to all the testimony obtainable the panic-mad passengers and th ship's force struggled for first place, although to the credit of the, crew be i that few of the sailors or ship's people lost their pres settle and to ence of mind, but gave their main attention to saving the pascengers. There were a number of children on the passenger list and oue of these was pitched overboard into the frothing sca by a frenzied father, who almed for one of the lifeboats while still upon the davits. A woman of evident wealth and refine ment among the passengers, whose name is thought to be Broslyn or Crosslyn, displayed remarkable presence of mind and in the mos trying moments passed among the frenzied throng exhorting the people to keep quiet, and taking particular care of women and children. Some passengers, not willing to await the chance of a place in the boats, seized the life belts and boldly cast themselves into the sea, their almost univéreal fate, as they were tossod lifelessly upon the waves dashed agatnst the rocks, which were ea observed from the fhst sinking ship. its heav: humanity cucceeded in clearing hip's side but was swept away by migh force and swallowed by the night of fog.

LINCOLN, Neb, May 30.—(Special.)— This morning Charles A. Hanna, trustec of the bondholders of the Call Printing and Publishing company, filed a petition, stating that by virtue of a trust deed executed No- vember 12, 1894, he has a special ownership in twenty-three rolls of print paper, which the sherift has wrongtully taken possession of and refuses to let him have. By the re- tention of this paper for four days he clalms | to have been damaged in the sum of $500. | He asks the court to order the property re- turned to him, or that the sheriff disgorge to the amount of the worth of the paper This print paper was taken under an execu- tion issued to satisfy a clalm for wages upon which judgment had been rendered. Deputy Sheriff Leighton has returned from Omaba with the colored man, Alexander Buckner, charged by Cray- ton C. Clemmons with bigamy. He was released by the Omaba au- thorities because the crime for which it was most desired to.punish him was com- mitted in this county by his marriage to Miss Emma Harrisgn while his first wife was living. Buckper dresses well, is a good talker, spruce. looking and about 2 years of age. According to his story, told to the deputy sheriff, he bad left his first wife in Sioux City and gone to Ilinois, and that when he returned to Omaha she had advertised for him, and not being able to find him had gone fo live with another man. The charge against Buckner in Omaha was bigamy, but the court refused to entertain it as the second marriage was performed in Lincoln. ;This constituting the crime, all he could be punished for in Douglas county was, adultery with his sec ond alleged wife, Emma Harrison. The lat- ter did not seem tg desire him to be pun- ished at all At a meeting of the “‘Varsity Rifies,” held at the univeristy, it was decided to change the name of the orgamization to “The Per- shing Rifles,” in honer of the commandant of the cadets, who leaves this year. This morning saw the close of the work of the grand chapter of the P. E. 0. with the installation of the officers elected yester- day. Attendant members say it has been a remarkably satistactory and successful meeting. Wedding Mells at Exeter. EXETER, Neb., May 30.—(Special)—The brilliant marriage of George N.
