HEAT NO TERROR TO THEM Something Doing at the Knights of Ak -Ben Den Deapite Tropical Weather. It is only nine weeks before the parade and fair of the Knights of Ak-Sar-Ben will be held and the Board of Governors aud committees in charge of the several phases of the work are busily engaged in preparing for the event. Monday afternoon before the regular initiations at the . den the governors held their regular meeting at the Omaha club. The transactions have not been made public, but it is under- stood that steps are under way to make the annual parade and the street falr which will be given two of the most at- tractive features of life in Nebraska. Several movel and meritorious ideas have been suggested and are belng considered by the board. At the den last night in spite of the heat a large crowd of initiates was pres- ent. Everything was fn working order and as soon as the cooler breezes of evening | had brought the temperature of the boxes of the engine to normal - condition, the weekly trip to climes borean was begun. The warmnth of the scenes portrayed even | In the frozen north was such as to make | the novitiates wish for a July sun in Omaha to cool them off, and the Incidents of the journey with their attendant perils were duly Impressed upon the minds of all, Among those from abroad who acknowl- edged the sway of the genfal and wmighty King Ak-Sar-Ben VII, Tekamak, cousisting of J.

It covered salaries for the months of May and June and miscellaneous bills for those two months and other dates. While the council was in session but about an hour a great deal of business was transacted. Belle Polsey wanted to compromise one of the tax sults against the city by paylng $150 and the city can- celing certaln paving taxes against land. After much discussion it was laid | for a week Caroiine Conrad, an aged woman, filed a claim for $5,000 dam- ages for injuries which she claims to have recelved by falling through a hole in the M street sidewalk Three resolutions were introduced which caused some excitement. In the first pl Martin Introduced a resolution, asking th the mayor appoint a committee to In- whether or mot there was auy corruption on the part of officials in con nection v.ith gambling joints during the | street fair. It was carried. Then he in- troduced another, asking that the council| have the saloon of Markeson Bros., what is known as the “Red Light Theate closed, as being an immoral place. The resolution was tabled. The last resolution was by Miller, asking that & committee be appolnted to Investigate the resignations of Officers Kenworthy and Emerick. Their rewignations will be looked fnto by & com- mittee of councilmen.

A culvert was voted to be placed at Seven- teenth and Q streets. The council deter- mined to bulld a new bridge over the creek on Madison street. The city englneer was Instructed to es- tablish grade on Y street, between Twenty- fifth and Twenty-seventh streets. Switt and Company complained of the defective con- | ditlon of the stalrway leading to their | offices from the Q street viaduct and in- quired whether or not the council had ever ordered sald sidewalk to be buiit. Tax Commissioner James J. Fitzgerald reported that the amount of property sub- Ject to municipal taxation {n South Omaha was $2,642,872.01, The city clerk was Instructed to draw a warrant on the Interest fund for the sum of $1,762.18, Interest due July 1 on the $70,000 bond issue, A lengthy communication was read from Congressman D. H. Mercer In regard to th proposed public library for South Omaha Mr. Mercer says that all that is now needed Is for the city to make the necessary ap- propriation for its maintenance and the library will be forthcoming. The letter s dated July 8, addressed to the mayor and council. In it Mr. Mercer quotes from a letter by Mr. Carnegle's secretary to him, which s as follows: “If the city of South Omaha will furnish & sultable site and pledge itself by reso- lution of council to maintain the library at cost of not less than 35,000 (five thousand dollars) per year, Mr. Carnegle will provide 350,000 (Afty thousand dollars) for a free library bullding. The matter of architects and other details are left to the community to manage, Mr. Carnegle thinking that outside parties are not o fit to do that. Mr. Mercer's letter was lald over for one week, the time of the adjournment of the counell. Moard of Education Meeting. Ostensibly the Board of Education of South Omaha met last night for the pur- pose of attempting to Arrange some plan for the bullding of the proposed High school on the Hoctor site. However, like all previous meetings called for a like pur- pose, nothing was done. In answer to its advertisement for bids only two appeared. The firet was from P. J. Bock, In which he agreed to build the school to conform with the plans of Mr. Davis, the school board architect, for the sum of $136,000. The other came from Rochford & Gould, Omaha contractors. They presented two bids, also fn conform- ity with the plans of Architect Davis. In one of these they offered to erect a bufld- Ing for $148.24294. On a second set of plans they bid $88,945.

The hardware store of Harry B. Menifee, Twenty-fourth and N streets, was entered by burglars early Sunday morning and considerable plunder taken. The entrance to the store was effected by cutting out the glass from a rear window and break ing down «n lawide door. Razors, silver spoons, pocketkuives and about a dozen valuable revolvers were taken. The watch men on this corner say that they do not know when the robbery could have taken place, ay they were around the corper dur- ing almost the whole of the wight, and two bright lights were burning in the store all the time.

The grading which has been going on at the extreme north end of Twenty-fourth street {s rapldly becoming a nuisance On account of the Iack of rain the soll Is almost entirely dry, so that as the graders work a cloud of dust hovers over that vicinity, The street car lioe passes through this and, while a fiying trip is generally made to clear the place, before the trip can be made the passenger stands & good chance of heing covered with dust trom head to foot. The work Is within the Omaha boundaries, although bearly upon the South Omaba line.

Sam Bear and Dick Perrie went down to the South Omaha street fair and caught the Mexican fever. They brought a sprig of the bovine car- nival back to Omaha and grafted it on the stage at Boyd's theater. The audience which listened to the Ferrls Stock com- pany last night was treated to a blood- curdling reproduction of the exhibitions which wiped out all the geography between South Omaha and the City of Mexico. At the conclusion of the production ot “The Plunger’ the curtain was rung down and o herd of Mexican greasers was set at work transforming the stage into a bull pen. The curtain was raised to the playing of the wedding march from Lohengrin. The populace cheered as the vast corral and judges' stand came into view. Senor Piro, armed with a large alto horn, sounded the signal for bloodshed Matadors and toreadors, resplendent In gay sashes of turkey red and bandanas that still bore the Fall River trademarks, dashed into the arena.

After the senors had displayed their clothes to the satisfaction of De Plro he sounded the reveillle and two greasers aroused a bullock from his beauty sleep and ushered bim into the corral.

The Infuriated beast sympathized with the girl who had lost her cud, He bellowed piteously. A literal translation of his speech would read about as follows: ‘“‘Maw, maw, maw.!
