CORNERSTONE PUT IN PLACE Weather Maker Finally Permits Osremonies at Auditorium Building. SENATOR MILLARD PRINCIPAL SPEAKE Acting Mayor Karr, T. J. Mahoney and o Express Sen- on the Public En- terprise of Omaha, Amid the applause of the multitude, ora- tory, musie, flowers and the rattle of traf- fie; the cornerstone of the Omaha Au- ditorlum was laid Saturday afternoon, and now, with a copper box full of “‘exhibits" in its core, rests sccurely in its bed of mortar. There is no possible doubt that It was an epoch-marking event In the his- tory of Omaha, sincs each of the five ora- tors so declared it, and each denies that the declaration was the result of a precon- certed agreement. It was also gathered from the epeeches that the building of the Auditorium indicated a transition from sordid commercialism to a more exalted intellectual plane, and that it was a mopu- ment to the civic pride of everyone who had contributed toward its construction. Alfred Millard acted as master of cer monles, and delivered the first addres He was followed by Acting Mayor Karr, who spoke briefly in bebalf of the city. Then T. J. Mahoney presented the matter from the standpoint of the Auditorium company and the Commerelal club. Sena- tor Millard who made the principal ad- dress, took an optimistic view of Omaha's tuture, and spoke !n glowing terms of the enterprige which had made such & struce ture as the Omaha Auditorfum a possi- bility. J. R. Lehmer read off a list of the articles which had been placed in the her- metically sealed copper box, to be con- signed to the heart of the cornerstone. F. B. S8anborn, who had arisen from a sick bed to be present, made the closing ad- dress, and afterward, figuratively laid the stone. Thousand People Attend. It was estimated that there were about 1,000 people present, and of these the greater number stood In the street, In the bolling sun, throughout the somewhat lengthly program. Among those who occupled seats on the platform were the following: Senator Mil- lard, Judge W. W. Slabaugh, John C. Bar- nard, Emil Cermak, J. B. Sunderland, J. Fraok Carpenter, L. N. Gonden, H. F. Mc- Intosh, Fred Stubbendorf, E. M. Andree- sen, George F. Lee, H. K. Burket, H. N. Wood, Peter E. Iler, M. O. Peters, J. J. Donabue, C.. F. Wheeler, C. 8. Elgutter, C. G. Pearse, John Steel, James Walsh, James Dinning, J. E. Utt, T. J. Mahoney, Alfred Millard, Isaac Hascall, M. D. Karr and Frank Hamilton. The cornerstone, which was a great block of Bedford (Ind.) etone, of steel gray color, weighing 4,000 pounds, was suspended from a derrick leaning agalnst the northeast cormer of the building, and by means of block and tackle was held about elghteen inches above the bed of Omaha-made brick, upon which it was destined to rest. In response to a signal, John Latenser, architect, and F. E. San- born stepped down from the platform to the top course of brick, and Abbott's band struck up “The Dance of the White Rats,” a selection, by the way, which will be played at the formal opening of the Auditorium. It is the Auditorium tune. Then came bricklayers in white duck over- alls, bearing trowels. They were: Jobhn 8. Ferris, John Kline, Theodore Barg, Au- gust Jranewskl and Ed Linosky, in char of W. P. Deverell, foreman. Mr. Ferris spread & layer of mortar under the block; Mr. Banborn put the copper box in place the band struck up ‘“‘America,” and the sigoal was given to lower away. A roar of applause went up as the stone sank into its moist bed. Then the banfsome young woman, Miss Nellle Rubin, threw garlands of smilax and roses upon the block. It was announced that 3250 had been realized from the recent policeman’s ball game, a check for which had been pre- sented to the bullding committee Alfred Millard Speaks. Alfred Millard spoke in part as follows: This s one of the victori a constructive, not a destruc the reward of honest, earnest endeavor, and we who have labored so long, come here today satisfied with our work, to congratulate you who have so generously alded us to this end. For it well as a beginning—an end of doubt as to the bullding of an Auditorium and the be- girning of a noble structure. In this day of commercialism, in this rush of eager competition for weaith, when men measure dollars and dollars measure men, It is well that we should find an hour like this from time to time, or If necessary make an occasion like this for the contemplation of an important fact, namely, that it is not enough to bulld a clty, to work and die in, but one to live In, and that city and thosé eople who best appreciate this truth are [ t successful. While our | i re uncommonly prosperous, It is most wise for us to con- sider an enterprise which makes for the happiness and contentment of the people, and it in my prophecy that one day our parks and boulevards, our Auditorium and other features of like character which con- duce to the holiday spirit among us, will be found to be our most import and valuable possession: ‘s #hall have & bullding here which will be an artistic triumph for the man who conceived it. Tts graceful lines and splen. did proportions will appeal to all who visit our city and be a constant source of ple ure and inspiration to us who live here. 8o today let us consecrate ourselves anew to its completion, because it is the work which lies nearest us, because the dignity 8t our city and ‘the’ volce, of the people demand it nd we will build a lcmgla in the spirit of unselfishness, whose noble tront shall bear the seal of our civic pride and the purity of {ta purpose will be a legacy to our children. Acting Mayor Karr spoke briefly of the progress made by Omaha In the last few years. He remembered the time when the Coliseum was considered much larger than necessary and something of an architectural extravaganoe. Talks for Auditorium Company. T. J. Mahoney compared the bulding to the advent of the Union Pacific railroad, to the establishment of the South Omaha #tock yards and to the Transmississippt Ex- position. “It may not mean so much to Omaba in & commerclal way s these, sald he, “but in the world of religion, of art, of sclence and of learning it will mean vastly mor J.

Many sudden deaths are caused by P it—heart disease, neumonia, heart allure or lpovlex( are often the result of kidney disease. If kidney trouble is al- lowed to advance the kidney-poisoned blood will attack the LS vital organs or the Kkidneys themselves break down and waste away cell by cell, Bladder troubles most always result from a derangement of the kidneys and a cure is obtained quickest by a proper treatment of the kidneys. 1f you are fesling badly you can make no mistake by taking Dr. Kiimer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and bladder remedy. It corrects inability to hold urine and scald- ing pain in passing it, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to go often during the day, and to get yp many times during the night. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its won- derful cures of the most distressing cases.

Senator Millard began his addrese by call- ing attention to some of the landmarks by which the city, county and state have reached their present commercial import- ance, He resumed: Today the state of Nebraska hi ulation in the nelghborhood of 1,200, within a radius of five miles from where we are now standing it is reasonable to say we have a population close to 200,000, including Council Bluffs, which is to a ce taln extent tributary {o the busines terests of this state, as is also a large por- tion of western lowa. The trade of Omaha at the present time reaches westward as far as the Pacific slope and it will not be long_until we effect trade relations our new possessions In the far e We have some of the most enterprising merchants to be found anywhere; our banking institutions are of the best'and I think ‘the deposits of the several banks amount to very nearly $30,000,000, whicl shows that there is a large amount of business doing and to be done in this metropolis. From one end of the state to the other our people are more prosperous than ever before. 1 find from the census report of 1900 that we had In Nebraska 5,414 manufacturing establishments, with a capital of about $72,000,000; the 'value of the material used was $102,000,000, while the - value of the finished products amounted to $144,000,000. Douglas counts had 1013 factories and niflls, with a capital of §1,500,000, the cost of material used belng 383,500,000, with a finished product valued at $13,500,000. Thus it will be seen that very cigse to 80 per cent of the value of the entire manufac- tured output of the state of Nebraska | 1900 was produced in Douglas county, an i take it that a showing of conditio they exist today would be very much more encouraging for the county than the f ures here given. Optimistic View ‘With the western portion of the state of lowa, together wit our state and the country west of us naturally tributary to this city, it is reasonable to predict that rowth in material wealth, culture, i ce and the comforts of life is o continue with greater rapidity tha in the past and there is no reason to doubt that ten years hence Omaha will have at least 200,000 people and that the st of Nebraska can then boast of a population of nearly 2,000,000, We are bullding for the future. This great structure you have undertaken to erect will be none too large to accommo- date the various conventions, assemblies convocations, concerts and other enter- talnments requiring a commodious meeting place in the s and city, yet its massive proportions will stand for years as a mon- ument to the public spirft and pluck of the men and women of Omaha. ‘We have reached an epoch In our munici- al history when the aspirations of oyr est citizenship strive for higher objects than the cumulation of property for mere satisfaction of possessing it have done well so far in providing the m: terial things of life; we must now deve! of Future. promotion and encouragement of the arts, A deep-seated desire to do this found splendid expression in our exposition of 158 and the public tastes thus cultivated ve rise to the agitation for an audi- rium which when fnished will facilitate & long-cherished plan in the minds of our educators, artists and musicians, who are doing most valuable work in ministering to the artistic sense of this fortunate com- munity. congratulate you and the efti- 1 wish o sens of Omaha generally upon the evi. dences of progress made In the work of promotion of this great enterprise and am sure we all entertain the hope that after its completion, which 1 trust may not be far in the future, your highest expectations of its suces artistically and financially, may find abundant realization. Enor: Cost of Boer War. Now that the end of the Boer war s in sight, England will proceed to count up the cost, and will find it to have reached an enormous figure.

On Monday night the oity counell will be up against two propositions. One will be a remonstrance against the passage of the ordinance introduced by Adkine granting to the Omaha Water company an extension ot Mts franchise for ten years from October, 1904, The other petition to be considered is ome from the people living in the die- tricts where it 18 proposed to extend the mains and locate forty-eight additional hy- drants, In talking about this matter last night one of the members of the council said: “A committes walted upon the officers of the water company to learn what could be done In regard to the extending of maine and the locating of a number of hydrant The matter was talked over thoroughly and the question of royalty came up, when it was suggested by someone that the term of the present franchise be extended. OfM- cers of the company declared positively that no royalty would be pald. However, they agreed to make concessions which, in the opinion of the committes, will amount to a great deal more than the proposed royalty. By the placing of forty-eight ad- dittonal hydrants at this time many small property owners will be provided with city water as well as with fire protection. The growth of the city demands that there should be an extension of the mains. These hydrants are to be free to the city for two years and paid for at the rate of $50 a year after 1904. Then again the company agrees to furnish water free to the school houses and city bulldings and for flushing sewers and the streets. Another concession offered was the placing of meters at the expense of the company. Heretofore the property owner has been compelled to de- Posit a oertaln sum for the cost of the meter,” Another city officlal sald that in his opinion the concessions offered the city offset the payment of a royalty by a large amount. It is understood that the counctl is in favor of the proposed ordinance. More Help Authorized. On September 1 two additional mall car- rlers and one collector of mail will be put to work here. Captain Etter, the postmas- ter, recelved instructions from Washington yesterday to make arrangements for this increase In help. Twelve carriers are now employed and the increase in the force will necessitate the redistricting of the city and the remodeling of the routes. The addition of a collector to the force will relieve to & great extent the work now imposed upon carriers and will result in the handling of mail much more rapidly than formerly. The Hammond Plan: More than a dozen men were employed yesterday In cleaning the Hammond plant here and it looks as If the plant would be reopened shortly. No one here appears to know what fs going on other than that or- ders were recelved yesterday morning to clean the plant at omce. All of the prop- erty of the old Hammond company is belng loaded into cars preparatory to its being shipped away. At the present time the Hammond bollers are being used by Swift, but the lease on these will cease, it is stated, as soon as the new bollers are in- stalled at the Swift plant. e Consummated. The sale of the triangular plece of property just east of the Union Pacific depot and owned by school district No. 3 was consummated yesterday. The pur- chager, John J. Ryan, paid the price of his bid, $2,100, to the school treasurer and received in return a deed to the plece of ground. When the Board of Education decided to dispose of tbis property, which is practically valueless for school pur- poses on account of it being located so near the railroad yards, bids were adver- tised for and Ryan was the high man. While the sale was practically made at the meeting of the board last Monday night the money and deeds were not ex- changed until yesterday afternoon. Patriotic Services.
