Consider then that land that needs no irrigation, that has an abundant rainfall {s what Is ' needed and sought after by our people. The climate and the soll combined make it possible to pro- duce most abundant crops in rotation almost the whole year around, and the farmer there- fore does not have to wait until the next year for another crop, but he can keep mow- ing and producing on the same land con- tiguously. This fact can scarecly be realized by the farmers in the north and west, whose one crop only comes in its season and if that Is lost they have no other resource for that year. Orchard Homes under such conditions as these is indeed the favored locality for the man of small means. He can there not only get a favorable start in life, but surely con- tinue on the road to prosperity and com- fort. A soll that year after year produces from $200 to $400 a year in money is in- deed a bonanza for the intelligent worker. No such conditions prevail in the west. To those who would better their condition in life; who want to get a cash price and a good price for all that they raise, there is no doubt that the advantages of soil, cli- mate, quick freight service and the whole United States as a market, all combined to make Orchard Homes the best locality for the man of moderate means to locate in and there thrive and prosper. In that favored region you are not housed up by the cold four months in the year nor are you distressed and disturbed by long terms of hot, dry weather. Two, three, and even four bountiful crops reward the farmer's work who tills the sofl at Orchard Homes, and not one thing that he can raise but what pays him the best price and that price in cash.” There is an absolute certainty of a profitable crop every year. There is an absolute certainty of an average profit of two hundred to three hundred dollars per acre every year for all the vegetables that can be ralsed. If you want to raise the luscious and profitable strawberry ~Orchard Homes is pre-eminently the garden spot for this fruit. A yield of 100 bushels of straw- berries to the acre there is not uncommon. Apples, peaches, plums, pears, in fact, all known marketable fruits almost without ex- ception, do well at Orchard Homes. For further particulars and means of in- vestigation write or see Geo. W.

Considerable attention has beea directed lately to the Four Mile placer fields, situated in Routt county, Colorado, and Carbon county, Wyoming, about seventy-five miles touth of lins, Wyo., which city 1s on the Uniou Pacifle railway. The area covered s about forty mil length and thirty miles in width, especially rich in mineral. Gold was first discovered there in 1801 and the following yeir several claims were lo cated; not until the last year, however, has any considerable amount of capital lavor been expended In order to prove the wealth of these flelds. At tho present time the Rock Springs Placer company, the West Side Min'ng as- soclation, and several smaller companies are operating with splendid success. Without doubt these fields are the rich- est of the kind in the west and are worthy of attention, Information regarding same will be cheer- fully furnished on application to Mr. H. C.

FIXING SOME NEW SALARIES Board of Education Wrangles Over the Pay for Miss Hitt. CONDITION OF THE FUNDS BROUGHT UP Miss Evans' Substitute Finally Pro- vided with Pay in Proportion to the rroundings by a Divided Vote. The Board of Education met last night and elected a substitute in place of Miss Evans, who goes to Europe on a leave of absence The cholce fell on Miss Alice Hitt, for sev- eral years a teacher in the schools of the city. The drawing teacher's salary was not so easy a task as making the selection of the teacher, After the two propositions to fix the salary and elect had been severed John- son offered a resolution placing it at $1,000. Burgess proceeded to read lists of cities which pay a higher salary than the sum proposed. Lowe significantly asked him tu te the condition of the school fund. Bur- gess did not know tha condition, though he did know of a certain Iowa town, he sald, smaller than Omaha in population, with a heavier tax levy. On a test vote the salary was cut from $1,100 and placed at $1,000. The High school students came in for a share of attention. A resolution was adopted requiring all male members of the High school to take part in military drill, as per the requirements of the commanding officer, unless first excused by the principal. The superintendent of schools reported upon the condition of the schools. The at- tend: now 13,461, he said, promised to be still greater after the fair. Many pupils had purposely remained away. Most of the schools were well filled and a few were crowded. Clifton Hill, Monmouth Park and Windsor schools could accommodate more pupils, he said. The board was reminded in a acommunica- tion that Michael Wallenz was fined $500 for selling liquor without a license. This sum could be retovered for the trouble of asking for it. The request of the Knights of Ak-Sar-Ben for permission to use the High school cam- pus on which to plant its cannon on Thurs- day evening, upon their advent into Omaha, was granted. The boundaries between the Lincoln and Train schools was ordered changed from Sixth to Eighth street. Principals of schools were notified by a resolution passed to that effect that they must destst from allowing non-resident pupils to attend the classes without a written permit from the proper authorities. The High School Athletic association asked the board for $75 to be used in defray- ing the expenses of a coach for the coming foot ball season. Citizens who patronize Forest school filed a long petition objecting to its contracted school facilities and asking for an additional room. The school has 221 pupils in five rooms. Many are unable to get accommoda- tions at all at present. A communication_read from the editor of the High School Register stated that he wished the co-operation of the board in en- abling him to widen out his circulation to embraco the various lower grades of schools. The usual batch of would-be teachers' ap- plications were read and filed away. 03 SOUTH OMAHA NEWS§g coecece:! members of the city council All present at the meeting of that body evening except Mies. were, last An ordinance was introduced requiring every member of the city council to attend every regular and special mesting and all meetings of the Board of Equalization. The ordinance provides for a penalty of a $5 fine for non-attendance of members, the amount of the fine to be taken out of the council- man's city pay warrant. Abeence from the city and sickness are the only excuses that will be accepted by the mayor. The ordi- nance was referred to the judiclary com- mittee. - In this connection Mayor Johnston took occasion ‘ to read a communication roasting the members of the council for not attending meetings of the Board of Equaliza- tion. Clerk Maly has been compelled several times lately to readvertise on account of non attendance of members, thus making an ad- ditional levy on the taxpayers' pockets, The mayor was mad, but ths majority of the council seemed to treat the matter as a joke. Jack Walters, as chairman' of a speclal committee appointed to consult with the Union Pacific Railway company in regar® to the railroad company maintaining an elec- tric light at Twenty-seventh and N street: asked for further time, which was grante This has been a point in the controversy between the Union Pacific and the city for some time. Ordinances have been introduced and passed requiring the railway company to pay for the light in question, but they aid no good, and as the city refused to pay for the light the electric light company put it out and now the nineteen tracks between the foot of N street and the stock yards are in total darknes Mike O'Hearn was allowed $75 on a judg- ment for nursing a smallpox patient last winter. O'Hearn was employed by the city to murse a tramp who was down with small- pox and when he ent in his bill the ctly council refused to pay it. A sult was in- stituted in a justice court and judgment for the amount rendered. Special ordinance No. 100, for grading the alley between Twentieth and Twenty-first streets on B street, was read for the first time. The mayor appointed Harry M. Christie as city auditor, who is to serve with- out pay, and the appointment was confirmed. Under a suspension of the rules ordinances Nos. 653, 654 and 655 were read for the sec- ond and third times and passed. These ordinances provide for grading alleys in grading district No, 26. A fire hydrant was ordered located at Jetter's brewery; also at the corner of Twentieth and P streets and Twentieth and O streets. At this point Mayor Johnston called James H. Bulla, president of the coun- cil, to the chair, and taking the floor read the charges he had preferred against Officer Dave Mulcahy, who was suspended some days ago for alleged misconduct, It had been reported to the mayor that Policeman Mulcahy con- veyed a note from Vie MeCarty to a woman asking for a gun. This was while McCarty was in prison on a charge of assault with in- tent to kill. _All witnesses were ordered from the room. E. O. Mayfield was the first wit- ness. The examination was conducted by Mayor Johnston, The witness said that he aid’ not write the article published in the World-Herald, which caused the suspension of Officer Mulcahy. The note was in posses- slon of the World-Herald Pubishing com- pany. Alex Schlegel is a_reporter on the World- Herald. He saw Officer Muleahy talk to a woman In front of the Savings bank on N sirfet and pass a note. Witness followed woman and she went into D. Murphy's sa- loon, and he watched her go back to the city jail. Bertha Butler, the wompan who was tuipposcd to #0 to Murpha's. Ior the un for McCarty, was called, She remembered hav- ing handed a bolichan a note asking him to gef somg whisky for McCarty, but atter that her memory failed her. Mayop Johustdn questioned the witness closely 4hd managed to get her badly mixed up in her state- ment. She sald that she wrote the note at home; that she handed it to a policeman, just which oug she did not know. When asked by the Mmayor how the note came to be written on city paper witness said she did not know. Mayor Johnston requested Mrs. Butler to give & specimen ¢t her hand- iting, which ! S The handwriting &P not look anything Iike the note sent to “Dennie.’” Neither was it lMke Vie MecCarty's writing, the mayor having gone to Omaha to get a speciman of MeCarty's penmanship. : Officer Muleahy went on the stand in his ovy defense. He admitted meeting Bertha Butler and recelving a note from her. At that time she asked if the McCarty boys were arrésted, and it she could take some whisky to them. Mulcahy said that he re- m: to allow any whigky to be taken to a prigou At tae conclielon of the testimony Walters moved that the whole matter be referred to the mayst, as the councll had no jurlsdiction to elthsr employ or discharge & policeman. The wotion was carried, RE TO'FRGHT SATA Snlvation Army People Bring Sol- diers for the Campaign. Instead of suspemding ordinary services during fair week, the Salvation army has arranged a week of meetings, bringing in workers from all parts of the state and Towa. The local musieians have been prac- ticing new pleces for*the occaslon. A pro- gram has been prepased for afternoon and evening meetings, eenducted by visitors, both on the street and fn-ghe hall.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 16.—A -report has been received from United States Attorney Wolfe at Pensacola, Fla., stating that the two partles who were arrested on information furnished by the Spanish vice consul at Tampa, upon trial, had been discharged by the United States commissioner at Cedar Keys. Attorney Wolfe says the evidence showed conclusively that these men had se- cretly conveyed to isolated places on Cedar Keys a large quantity of arms and ammuni- tion, provisions, ete., presumably to be used in outfitting an expedition against the Span- ish authorities in Cuba. That such was the use to which the arms were to be put could not, however, be proved, and the men were dischaiged.

This is particularly true of banks in the northwest, where small notes are in active demand in moying the grain crops. Other banks, nppA} tly dis- interested, have oftered gold in exéBange for silver certificates. Several of the banks offered gold suspected of being a little under weight, as it was stipulated that it was to be received at its face value. Some of the other conditions imposed by western banks could not be accepted, but in all cases where the government consistently could do o the offers have been accepted.
