BIT OF PETTY SPITE WORK CHARGE OF UNLAWFUL EXPENDITURE Oomplaint Filed Againet Edward Rowc- water in Bouth Omaha Oourt. County Attorney Swears rants, hut Declines to Arrest Miles Mitchell on a Similar Charge When Requested. Out War- Presumably at the Instigation of some of the disgruntied members of the republican party, George W. Shields, county attorney. filed yesterday in the police court in South Omaha three complaints agains Ed Rosewater. These complaints allege the un- lawful expenditure of money in the No- vember election. One complaint alleges that, acting as the agent of Mr. Rosewater. Mr. C. B. Llewellyn gave the sum of $6 to one Henry Elsfelder, a member of the po- | lice force, The other two complaints are similar in design and construction, only that the alle- gation is made that as the agent of Mr Rosewater, Miles Mitchell, chief of police ot Bouth Omaha, paid to Paul Barley the sum of $26 and to Charles Wehner the same sum As Shields signs these complaints, he as- serts that Mitchell and Llewellyn acted as agents of Mr. Rosewater. Shortly after 3 o'clock yesterday after- noon Mr. Rosewater appeared before Po- lice Judge King and stated that he hadl heard that complaints had been filed against him. The judge very accommodat- ingly dug down Into the recesses of his desk and produced the documents. Chiet of Police Mitchell was on hand and read one of the warrants, Mr Rosewater walving the reading of the other warrants and complaints . Refuse to Arrest Mitchell, Whe he had finished reading one of Mitchell's complains in which it was al- leged that he, Mitchell, had committed an unlawful act, Mr. Rosewater, addressing the court, demanded the arrest of Mitchell on the spot. He contended that Mitchell, a8 an officer of the law, had no right to violate any law he had sworn to uphold, and therefore was amenable. In illustra- tion, Mr. Rosewater said that supposing that Mitchell was his agent, which, of course, was untrue, and he had asked him to go out and set a bullding on fire and thus commit arson, would Mitchell, as an officer of the law and chief of police, be warranted In committing an unlawful act? County Attorney Shields refused to file & complaint against Mitchell at gestion of Mr. Rosewater, but it is under- stood that this matter will be attended to later. Then City Prosecutor Murphy was called upon, but as Mr. Rosewater had not been cited to appear for any viola tion of city ordinances Mr. Murphy asserted that he was powerless. Then Mr. Rose- water asked why he had been cited the police court in South Omaha on a charge which was not a vio- lation of any city ordinance. There was no apswer to this. Shields smoked his pipe and Mitchell looked wise. Hearing Comen Satu ny. At the request of Mr. Rosewater, Judge King continued the cases untll Saturday afternoon at 1 o'clock, when there will be a trial. No bond was required, as Mr. Rosewater was allowed to go on his own recognizance. An offer was made to sign a hond, but Judge King held that this was not necessary. County Attorney Shields announced that he would filo other complaints of a similar nature against Mr. Rosewater and the re- quest was made that they all be filed by Saturday, #0 that the witnesses could be called and the cases taken up as rapldly s possible. When these cases are called on Saturday Informations will be filed against Mitchell. In case the county attorney continues to decline to issue complaints it is understood that complaints will be filed in the county court. to appear before South Omnha News . With the commencement of & new and 4 new century the Commercial club of South Omaha propsses to push ahead and accomplish a great deal in the year that s before the organization. “One o the most important objects, to my mind sald Secretary Watkins yesterda opening of N street, and I feel confident that when this is accomplished the at large will be greatly benefited thereby By the opening of this street a depot will be located on the Burlington tracks, and not only mail, but produce from the pack ing houses can be handled much nore ex peditiously. At least an hour of {ime can be saved on mail and fully the same on refrigerator box shipments. An impreve- ment of this kind in transportation and mail facilities will be greatly appreciated, not only by the packers and business men, but by the public at lirge.” Continuing, Mr. Watkins said that he hoped that wh: the new charter passed the legislature provision would be made for improvemenis unless protested by a majority of the resi- dent property owners. In this way, he says, the city can go ahead and do a great deal of work which now remains undone for the reason that remonstrauces are made by non-resident property owners These foreign tax shirkers, he says, should be made to pay a just propartion of the burden of public improvements. Mr. Watking does not think that a great deal will be accomplished by the Com mercial club until ‘the new charter ar 1s Throat Troubles You forgot to buy a bottle of Ayer's Cherry Pectoral when your cold first came on, didn’t you?

Al members and friends of organized labor will be urged to get out and hustle and make the affair @ success In every sense of the word. Tickets for this ball will be sold for 81, and some predict that at least $1,500 will be taken in from this source In speaking of business prospects yester- day, a South Omaha contractor sald that he anticipated a busy year, and that there would doubtless be a great deal of bullding going on here during the present year. The re-election of McKinley, he said, had assured the people of a stable government, and men of money were now looking for investments. It Is the same at the stock yards. Those connected with this gigantic industry look for an exceedingly prosperous year, and the prediction is made that the receipts wiil exceed those of last year. Bourd of He Owing to the two cases of smallpox re- ported, Mayor Kelly has deemed it advi able o appolut a temporary board of health This board conslsts of Drs.

Some time ago the council passed a resolution directing the legal department to draft an ordinance creating a board of health, but owing to the press of other matters of more impor- tance the ordinance has not yet been pre- to the council. In the meantime tho temporary board named by the mayor will attend to all cases of contaglous dis- eases and will see that the proper quaran- tine regulations are observed. The two smallpox patients are doing as well as |can be expected and as no new cases have been reported greatly relicved. Council Meeting Tonight. It Is asserted that at tonight's meeting of the city council arrangements will be made for the payment of the back salaries of the firemen and policemen. The sum of 150 for the firemen and $1,200 for po- men will be transferred from the judg- it fund. This will be a total transfer of While this method of procedure stofetly in accordance with law, it will without doubt meet with the approval of the taxpayers, as there is quite a sum of money laying idle in the judgment fund. It is also asserted that the case is in the na- ture of an emergency and this fact will condone to a great extent the stretching of the law on the point. the city authorities are Specinl School At a special onrd Meeting. meeting of the Board ol Education the following resolution was passed: Resolved that the Board of Edu- cation co-operate in every possible way with the Board of Health in preventing the spread of smallvox in South Omaha, and that we hereby recommend that all em- ployes of the board be vaccinated it same Is necessary.

During the year the postoMce re- celpts at South Omaha amounted to $6 For the year ending 1899 the re- eipts were $60,304.50. An increase Is thus shown of $3,498.77. On account of the lack of help at the postoffice to attend to the late mails the business Is retarded to some extent, but it Is expected that this will be remedied shortly by the appointment of a clerk, who will remain on duty until 11 p. m.

There are many reasons why this is true. What other companies are there to use the sub- way besides the telegraph, electric light and fire organizations? Has Its Own System. “Our company has a system of its own All of our wires in the business part of the city are underground and we will continue to use our own subway whether the city puts in conduits or mot. An electriclan knows that it would be an impossibility to have the wires of the electric light com- pany and those of the telephone system in the same subway. In stringlng wires along the street we never get closer to the metalllc system of the electric light company than a block it we can help It, and even then the noise of the wires with heavler voltage spoils the service ot our grounded circuit “The electric lighting wires have a volt- age of 7,200 The telephone wires carrs about 2,500 volts. Telegruph wires are about the same. Put these wires together and the nofse of the one with heavy volt- age 18 terrific. It's a question whether the telegraph company would be any more will- ing to use the same subway as the electric light company than we are. It looks good deal as If the city would have to build a system for the electric light company alone, if one is constructed, although the fire wires might be run in the same con- duits, “Now, wkat 1s the use of building a sub- way, when all that the council has to do s to order the concerns controlling wires to bury them? The olectric light company certainly cannot afford to pay a rental sufficlent to cover the interest on the out- lay of money the council must make if the project goes through. It strikes me that this is an impracticable scheme on the part of the city engineer to spend the taxpayers’ money. Cost Will Be Great. “But, leaving aside the question of re- turns on the investment, the construction of a subway will cost the city several hun- dred thousand dollars, it & system of any pretensions at all Is put in. In the first place, it will be necessary to build a sys- tem that will be extensive enough to an- swer the city's needs, not only for the pres- ent, but for the mext thirty vears, as it will not do to have the streets torn up every year to make additions. This esti- mate is baged on the cost of our conduits “The telephone company has laid just 249,381 feet of condults, requiring ninety- six manholes. Of this amount 2,303 feet were laid during the last year. We use the fron conduits cement lined. The main line of system I8 from St. Mary's avenue to Izard street, along this stretch being no less than eight ducts and often as many as forty. A duct carries a single cable These ducts are lain in a cement bed and all of them together compose the subw Off from the main branch there are s eral extentions about half as large; for instance the one in the alley between Far- from Tenth to the way from nam and Douglas streets, Eighteenth, there are all four to thirty-six ducts, the number les- sening the farther the extension reaches. Tho subway is lald according to grade from two to twenty-two feet beneath the surfage. The manholes are five by seven feet, built of brick. To bulld such a sys- tem requires vast outlay of money, and if the city constructed such a one as it should, having in view the future needs, an even greater sum would be required. “Then there is the continued expense of repairs and care necessitating the services of three men. On three occasions it has been necessary to locate breaks in the cables and put in new sections, owing to a trouble known as electrolysis. This is a leaking of electricity, Take for instance the trolley lines; there Is a continual leaking of electri- cal fluid trom the ralls into the ground, the fluld secking damp spots and eating away metal whenever It comes in contact with it. It has happened that this vagrant clec- tricity has found moist places in the vicinity of our conduits and has eaten the covering of the cables o that repairs were neces- sary. The expense of locating such a break and perfecting the counection is no small ftem, No Way to Avold Trouble, “This same trouble will be experienced, no matter what may be the material with which the subway be built. The city ofi- cials have been told that terra cotta is the best material. It is more recent than iron coment lined conduits, but there s & ques- tion whether or not it is better. The terra cotta 1s vitrified brick and will last a litetime. Advocates of the iron piping con- tend that the cement will grow harder with time and for that reason is just as durable. Other troubles that have to be contended with in maintaining these subways are gas and water. Often the manholes must be left uncovered to prevent explosions owing to the conduits filling with gas, “In practically all citics the different com- panies using wires own their own subways In Chicago perhaps a municipal system has been made to pay, but there is this diffe ence between Chicago and Omaha: There are several large electric light companies and numerous small ones, which use the conduits. The telephone company and other concerns own their own systems just as we do. My. opinion fs that the project of an underground system In this city is one | too large and unnecessary to pay."

The Knights of Kadosh last night held a session of the lodge of sorrow over the remains of James Gilbert. For the first time in the history of St. Andrew's preceptory the impressive funeral services of the Scottish Rite Masons were observed without James Gilbert ns preceptor. He was one of the leading members of the soclety and from the first time the lodge held services over a departed member he had conducted them The main hall of Masonte hall was filled with the friends of the deceased at 10:30 o'clock, (midnight eastern time), when the services began. To the tolling of the pas- sing bell the dark robed knights bore the body of their departed brother from the west hall to the main room. No light was in the building save the candles carried in the hands of the pallbearers and the officers of the preceptory, who were to take part in the services. Behind a screen a choir was placed and as the last of the officers took their station on either side of the casket unseen voices sang ‘‘Lead Kindly Light.” Then bezan the ritualistic cere- mony. The preceptor, standing at the head of the casket led the services, and each officer responded in the language prescribed for the occasion. At the conclusion of the first part of the service the preceptor, Sir Charles 8. Lobringer, Thirty-second degree, took from the hand of the deceased the ring, which was given him at the time he took upon himself the obligations of the order, and, addressing the widow of the dead knight, said: It now falls to me visible mark of th dearly beloved brother, and, ma with us Thix ring he to present to you a compact which our your lamented hus- while “entering our promised to and did ime and he p hould pass int er his de: f no oth ] t son or the friend whom of all hé loved.

By purchasing an immense quantity of these photo- graphic art studies The Bee is almost able to give them away to their readers. They do this in order to give their readers one more advantage over other papers by allow- ing them the privilege of getting these pictures practi- cally for nothing. Twelve Attractive Subjects One nf the most pleasing, is “lf‘ pn‘tun- uf a winsome little miss of probably four years carrying a tea tray. en- titled, “Grandma’s Tea.” “Baccante,” is the title of an- other, the subject being one of ideal womanly beauty, dec- orated with the grape leaves at once suggestive of the dew of the wine cups. Perhaps quite as beautiful, but of a de- cidedly different type, is the modest maiden whose down- cast eyes admire an uplifted rose. This picture is enti- tled “The Rose.” Two studies which appeal decidedly to the artistic sense are “Dolores” and “The Waif” both child studies which remind one most forcibly of the works of the great Murillo. Two other studies of decidedly artistic merit as purely art studies are entitled, “Eastertide” and “Bubbles.” The child studies seem to be particularly fa- vored. “The New Baby,” is one that has its humorous side. The mother is tossing the youngest member of the family while a three year old, who has formerly occupied first place in the household stands aside pouting with | [ | [ | [ | | | O A R oy s antanted | jealousy. “Our Pet,” is a portrait study of another little i}?frf!;:f{:éfff'.l Er",-ylr:.;:r.‘l.-'rl:'-j‘]“,'.‘g; l'l'fl',r":":.;{fl"“ lll;iflfl.'w'}IO’ is the pride of someone’s nursery. “The Old NG REohes.
