12~ e —————— KIMBALL MAY GET CONTRACT Rumor that School Board is to Break Away from Architect Latenser PLANS FOR MONMOUTH PARK BUILDING in Title to One of of Owing to Defect Lots Construction New May Be layed Some. Hous Dew It is rumored around the city hall that the bullding and property committee of the Board of Education has decided to let the contract for the construction of the elght- room school house at Monmouth Park T.,R. Kimball, and that a report to this effect will be made to the board Monday at the special session. Mr. Kimball, the chair- man of the building and property commit- tee, and the superintendent of buildings bave inspected the ground for the prelimi nary plans, which are to be prepared im- mediately. In this connection it is sald by members of the board that there is some difficulty in | getting title to the land upon which the new house is 6 be built. The board or- dered the purchase of three lots in addi- tlon to those mow owned by the district, and (b2 purchase was made several months ago. It has since developed that thero stands against one of the lots the sum of $600, and to straighten this title will re- quire some time, 8o it may be May 1 beforo the district can get a clear title to the land The board also intends to have the alley running between the lots condemned. This action has not yet been secured from the council, so there is some doubt as to when the construction will be begun. | | to | Why I8 not stock yards a Burns-Haskell. 'Phone 895. ELECTRIC COMPANY’S ROYALTY Pays City Three P Earnings from Commercial Service, good buy? r Cent on Gross Secretary Schweltzer of the New Omaha Thomson-Houston Blectric Light company has filed with the city comptroller a report of the business done by the company, ex- clusive of that with the city, for last year and has paid into the city treasury a royalty of $5,683.90, the amount being 3 per cent of the gross earnings collected, minus city lighting. This is the first royalty ever paid to the eity by the electric light company and is done under the contract of March 4, 1902, in which the price for arc lights is fixed at $94.50 each per annum. The substance of the report shows that the gross earnings for arc and incandescent light service, exclusive of business done with the city, amounted to $144,459.09; gross earnings for power service, $45,546.38; total, $13,005.47. The amount remaining uncol- lected for arc and incandescent lighting service is given at $2,234.90 and that for power service $1,307.37, a total of $3,542, leaving $189,463.20 upon which the royalty for 1902 is computed. Last year the city contracted hllln for lighting to the extent of $38,926.20, ving the total gross earn- ings of the elu.trlc light company as $231,- .67 for 1902, Pl Children When You C: Children often get what they do not want because their elders think it good for them. Is it not better to give them something that they want and that will o do them good? Mr. A. W. Cook, editor of the Journal, Deposit, N. Y., has found a way of doing this. He writes: ‘We have been using Chamberlain's Cough Remedy in' our family for several years. Our children like It and it seems to break up fhelr colds. Our baby cries for it ana ofttimes will make up a cough in order to get an extra dose. We have recoms mended it to our friends, who are using it with good success.” There is no danger in giving this remedy to children, for it contains nothing harmful and there s nothing so good for the colds, croup and whooping cough to which they are sube Ject. CURTAILS GRAIN SHIPMENTS Shortage of Cars from Neb: e the \ e for Complaint ka and Kansas Denlers, M. T. Cummings of the Cummings Grain company of Beatrice, Neb., and Blue Rap- 1ds, Kan,, is in the city on business con- nected with the grain shipping interests. Of the grain conditions down in that viein- ity he &ays: “We are all tied up and ham- pered on the transporation question. We cannot get cars. The Union Pacific will not accept consignments of grain in Union Pacific cars for points farther than Kansas City, and much of our trade is with the south and southeast. White corn is quoted with us at 32 cents, yellow at 313 cents and mixed at 81 cents. Very little corn is now coming in to the elevators beeause of the bad condition of the country roads.” The Peril of Our Time is lung disease. Dr. King's New Discov- ery for Consumption, Coughs and Colds cures lung troubles or no pay.
