AFRAID HE WOULD BE BENCHED HERE Work and Worried Over He Goes to jurns’ Aggregation Rather Than Jump. Tom Fleming bas become a Milljonaire. The Omaba left fielder has gone to Tom Burne and the Colorado Springs base ball team. He did so with the full copsent of Manager Rourke, and supposedly on the same. salary that “Pa Bill" was paying him. Fleming will take the place of Bar- rett, who has been playiug left field for the westerners. Tom did not play in yester- day's game, but left with the Millioraires last evening for. their home town. This change in the personnel of the Gate City group has been expected -for some time. Fleming bas beeu notoriously dis- satisfied in ‘his position with Omaba. Ho was drawing good money, but felt that he was not high in popular favor, and the bringing back of Stone added to his sorrows. He was piqued and has been dickering with Sacramento to join that west coast aggre- gation. His wife's poor bealth is another incentiye for him to locate on sea or moun- tain country. When Stone was Joaned to Peoria Rourks oftered to Iet Fleming go there. He re- fused to make the change, Eo Stone yent Last meek ,matiers case to & fnal point| with Sfone’s, return.

Then Tom Burps, who, was looking for a chance to strengthen his outfield, began Degotiatiops. Rourke lold Fleming to go abead if he could come 1o terms with Burns, and Tom did so. Permanently Placed. “I shall pow play Stone permanently in left field,” sald Manager Rourke. “That will put Genins in muddle field between the two young enes, and he can thus watch both of thém. Framk will play today, and Bis ehoulder is almost well. My team per- sonnel is now just what it will be the sea~ son through, with ome exception. I shall keep all these four pitchers and Eddie Gor- @on ' will make & ffth on June 1. Five is mot téo many for the class of team I have this season.” The exception mentioned by Rourke is Dave Calhoun. Though he is knowsn as & topuotch first baseman and one of the best n the league, his permanency depends upon go0d conduct. Rourke thinks now that Dave will play the season eut all right, but if he @oes pot Thomas will make a good substi- tute, and & new substitute catcher will be wecured.

A large force of workmen started this morn- 1ng 1o extend the long west bleacher 100 feet farther to the north, runaing it olear to the porth fence. In addition to this twenty- four boxes, seating six people each, will be bullt along in front of the grandstand on a level with its floor. In the center of this ndstand will be the press box, directly hind the home plate. With' thia box oe- commodation Rourke expects to get out to his games a better class of people than have ever attended base ball games here. He calculates that the exclusiveness will cateh the tonler set. Box seats will cost 50 cents in addition to the 23-cent gate admission. The work will be rushed, and on mext Wednesday, which is ladies’ day and open- | ng day with Des Moines here, will be fin- fabed.” There is no game Tuesday, but two on Friday.

CENTRAL BOULEVARD TAXES City Engineer's Department Com. pletes Map of the Speeial As- sessment District. ' The eity engineer’s department has com- pleted’ the work of mapping out the benefit district of Central boulevard from Popple- ton avenue to Burt street and the plans will be filed this week with the Board of Public Works, a speclal meeting of which will probably be called for this purpose Tues- day. The amount to be raised: by taxa- tlon to pay for the property condemned is $49,690. Generally speaking the bemefit dis- trict is bounded by Twenty-fourth, Fortieth, Pacific and Burt streets and taxes for the improvement will be levied on every ‘lot included in this territory, the amounmt to be determined by the property’s proximity to the boulevard. The boulevard, which will foliow a de- vious course through the district, will be of an average width of 175 feet, though at eome polnts its width exceeds 200 feet. The taxes will be equalized by the mext special Board of Equalization, which meets the second Tuesday in June. Mortality Statisties.

TO KEEP MARKET PLACE CLEAN Gardeners’ Assoclation Appoiats an Officer to Sweep Up Refuse Matte The Omaba Gardeners’ association has organized an auxiliary street cleaning de- partment under the supervision of one of its officers. The duty of this department is to keep clean the streets and walks within the area of Howard d Eleventh streets which has been squatted upon by the gardeners pending the settlement of the market house question. “When we found that we would be un- able to sell anything on the Capitol avenue site,” sald & member of the association, “we decided to return to the old stand on Howard street. while we might be permitted to remain there temporarily, we would recelve no attention from the city. Decayed vegeta- bies, spolled frult and skins frum bananas and oranges began to accumulate in the sreet, and the place became unwholesome ia the extreme. Some of our members feared that persons owning or occupying property In tbe neighborbood would make complaint, and as the city was in ne posi- tion to keep the place clean, we decided to organize a street cleaning departmeat of our own. We did this all the more readily becsuse the cify is not recelviag the usual fees from the gardepers, the market inspector making no visite to this place. The members who favored the idea said that property owners and others might have cause for action agsinet us for main- taiping & nuisance if the street was not cleaped. The party engaged will start to work Monday morning and we expect to bave no more decayed vegetstion on the street.” SAVIDGE AT A DANCE HALL People’s Church Pastor Preaches to the People of the Under World.

FARMER TO CHAMPION PURITY ore of Valley Tells Fhilo fcal Society of a Desired Whit W. G. Whitmore, a grain and stock dealer of Valley, Neb., was slated for the principal address at Sunday’s meeting of the Omaha Philcsophical society. In part his paper was as follows The gradual reversal of things which as been going on in recent years, whereby the producer, especially the western farmer and stockman, is obtaining better prices and a more equitable share of the profits of business, as well as much lower rates of in- terest, bas bad a tendency to divest his mind of the old-time nowon that he was in some mysterious way oppressed by every er kind of business. “Doubtless, as in the past, with our su- perd natural advantages of climate and soll, the mere plow jogger will continue to get & fair living, but the man who would thrive and progress and secure for his family the | advantages of education, culture. and the thousand little smenities which help to make lfe wolth living must be alert to perceive and prompt and courageous to act along more modern and scientific lines. | “The sentiment of the farming class is vo longer regarded by the political boss with the wholesome dread tbat ought te exist In such & state as ours This is largely due to a serious decline among the farmers of individual independence of political thought and action-—a substitution of were party for patriotic standards of judgment. A corrupt and debauching spirit of commercialism’ pervades the polit- ical atmospbere and poisons the fountains of law, liberty and progress. I would Dot advocate the formation of an agriculiural party to correct this evil, for 1 do not believe thet any mas should ad- minister bis political duty i this country city, and many, many of them wish to sleep under the assoctation roof, not gratultously, but because of the home-like comfort and safety that they feel is there.
