THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SATURDAY, JUNE 7, 1902, HOME FOR 1. W. C. A, NEEDED Open Letter to the Pablic from the Officers of the Association. WANTS AND EXPECTATIONS EXPLAINED Necessity for More Ex Ace ve Quarters and Better tions for the Work Now Carried On. Belug OMAHA, June 6.—T Public: The Young Women's Christian assoclation ap peals to the citizens of Omaha to provids the means to proture & suitable property for ts work. The assocation 1zed nine years ago for the social, mental and spiritual weltare of women of our city. From a good beginning, loeated 1n comfortable has grown to a membership of 600 to 1,000, oceupying ome floor in the Paxton block. This is divided by temporary par titions, giving an office, two rest rooms, | lunch room, kitchen and gymnasium. Be- tween 400 and 500 women and girls visit the rooms dally. More than 400 every noon avail themselves of the opportunity of se- curing & well-cooked meal at a moderate price and resting in the parlors, supplied | with couches, easy chairs, papers, maga- zines and books. The number would be larger it they could be accommodated. The gymnasium, becauso of the low celling and broken floor space, but poorly accommo- dates the 200 members. During the evening, when classes are held in the gymnasium, it is {mpoesible to have more than two other classes, 60 that the educational work | 1s very much limited The present place is outgrown. For lunch purposes twice the floor space Is needed, and as much for gymnasium, with twice the helght of ceiling. There should be three to five private class rooms for educatiomal purposes, with larger parlors and office rooms. Because of the varied needs, requiring irregular architecture, it is difficult to adapt an ordinary building to the needs of the work. For the same reason It bas been impossible to rent a buliding sultably constructed. What is Now Needed. the was organ- physieal, young | central rooms, it two Because of these two conditions, it be- comes necessary to come to the public and ask for a home for this important work. It is necessary to have offices, parlors, class rooms, lunch rooms, kitchen, gymna- slum, bath rooms, and it ls desirable to bave a small auditorium, a patatorium and bowling alley. The location must be cen- tral to accommodate the patrons of the Junch, as that is a source of income. It ought to be within the boundary of Sev- enteenth and Fourteenth, Dodge and Har- ney streets. A corner lot would be ideal, affording the best light and ventilation. An inside 1ot not less than forty-four feet wide could be used. To supply these needs in a modest way it has been estimated that the minimum sum of $50,000 will be required. This estl- mate is made for an inside lot and pro- vision for present necessities. The asso- clation has no debts, is opposed to contract- ing any, and will not undertake this enter- prise until two-thirds of the amount re- Guired is pledged. The question as to how the money shall be raised has been variously answered. One large-hearted friend proposed ‘‘that twelve to twenty business men of the city meet and while at lunch settle the matter by contribating fhe amount needed.” That would be a great relief; it would leave the womer free to give their strepgth to the oonstryction of the building at once and would enable the soclation to celebrate Its tenth anniversary at home. Another suggested ‘‘that some liberal man or woman give half the required amount as & memorial to the departed or the living.” That would give an inspiration to quickly secure the balance. Another, “that five persons be found, each giving $5,000." The suggestions prefaced with the words, “1 will give,” in the amounts above mens tioned, or in good round sums above $1,000, will be most gratefully received. What the Women May Do, Are there not a number of good women of the city who will give In a $500 class, a class numbering ten to twenty? A class of $100 gifts numbering fifty per- sons would add well. Fifty more glving $50, $25 each would equal it. open. K A few years past the women were asked to defer their bullding enterprise and help with the exposition, which they cheerfully did. . They responded to the requests to help with the Auditorium; they have been loyel to every public interest. This Joyalty will be recognized in & prace tical way by a hearty, generous respon: to this appeal for a bullding worthy the eity of Omaha, creditable In comparison ‘with similar bulldings in other cities, ana worthy the assoclation, which stands for constructive, formatory work, for the crowning glory of our advanced ecivifization, & well-rounded, perfect young womanhood.

NEGLECTFUL FATHER IN JAIL Willlam Moody Fined for Vagrancy and' Police Force Oa for His Family, Service. Willlam Moody was senienced to jail for twenty days in police court yesterday on a charge of vagrancy. His arrest Thur, day afternpon by Detectives Drummy and Mitchell brought to light a most pititul case of destitution. Moody lives in & room over a hardware store, 220 North Sixteenth street, with his wife, two children, the older of which is not 3 years of age, and & woman of the half world, who Moody in- tormed the officers paid the rent on th room. The wife is 11l in bed and when the officers visited the room they found the two little children crawling in the dirt on the floor and neither of them had on a particle ot clothing. There was nothing to eat in the house, and a short time before the ar- rival of the officers Mrs. Moody had been to one of the other roomers begging for a crust of bread for the children. Moody, so the officers were informed, had done no work for months and the family was de- pendent -on the sick mother for its support. The officers were told that on several oc- caslons Moody had coie home and finding nothing to eat there, compelled his wite to g0 out and hunt for work. Officer Wool- dridge took ‘the family some food Thursday and fitted them out with clothing yester- day. The family only moved in the Six- teenth street address a fow days ago. Moody told the officers that he had recently served a term in the Kansas penitentiary for grand larceny. HEAP TRIES OUT LAW POINTS His Lawyer Endeavors in Every Way to Avetd Trial by Jury. Willlam Heap, jr., charged with embez- zlement, is trying out the law to a finish before he submits to a trial by jury. Yes- terday his attorney argued & plea in abatement before Judge Baxter, asserting that the preliminary hearing before Justice Altstadt, who bound the defendant over to the dlstrict court, was illegal and without effect. The court overruled the plea and then the lawyer took amother tack by de- murring to the complaint. He argued that nobe of the separate counts in the com- plaint censtituted a sufficient cause for ac- tion by the state, but the judge could not be brought around to his view of the thing and refused to pullify the complaint. Then the resourceful lawyer put in an- other plea in abatement: In this last plea he denles that the district court for Douglas county has jurisdiction, for the reason that the statement upon which Heap is sald to have secured the money was written in Wyoming and malled in Idaho and the money was received in Utah. This pl will be tried by & jury next Thursday mora Bank Fined by Asseciation, NEW YORK, Jupe 6.—At & meeting of the Clearing: House assoclation today the Central National bank was fined $5,000 for viclating the rules of thy aesoclation governing ooilections 0B out-of-town checks.
