BRIGHT DAY FOR THE GIRLS Commencement at St. Academy Marked by U tty Ceremonles. Catherine's ally Clad in dainty white aresses and with smiling faces and charming manners the children and young women of St. Cath. erine yesterday afternoon welcomed Bishop | Scaunell, and the priests of the city to the annual commencement. Some very pretty numbers were presented the plece de resistance being the operetta “Florinda.” Florinda, a little sheperdess, wanders in the forest and is stolen by Vala the Gypsy gueen, who by a magic power changes her Into a nightingale so that she does not recognige her sister Yula. The fairies remove the charm from Florinda by means of & rose in the center of which is found an exquisite pearl. When he is rescued by Yula, after the Gypsy charm has been removed, the Tyrolians and fairies greet her amid great rejolcings. Little Geraldine O'Malley made a charming Forinda. She possesses a sweet soprano voice, and much natural grace. Rose Gentleman, a tiny midget, captivated the audience by her nong, “The Maid in the Moon," Miss Jessie Tucker as the Gypsy queen and Miss Helen O'Neill as Yula were also particularly good. The Benior girls the Tyrollans gave a novel drill which was replete with graceful poses. The Violin Quartet deserves more than ordinary mention. Under the directorship of Miss B. Wedensall the young ladles’ gave some excellent music. The choral work of the program also showed careful train: Ing.

Clark The Gentry Brothers' dog and pony show opencd a three-day engagement yesterday at Eighteenth and Douglas streets. The novel street parade was witnessed by many admirers as it passed during the morning. The many tiny animals all looked at their best, and do not bear any marks of their recent long flood experfence in Kansas. The large tents wene well filled at the two per- formances, notwithstanding the threaten- ing weather and rain storm of the evening. The, performances given ryesterday con- tain many new,. unique and novel features, entirely different from anything as yet in- troduced In Omaha. I'rom the opening number styled “A Salute to Our Nations," to the final number the exhibition really bristles With new features. The many handsome ponles, the intelligent dogs, the comical monkeys, the cute baby elephants, all work with a dash and vim that seems to Indicate the very kindest of treatment at the hands of their trafmer. Two per- formances will be given daily today and tomorrow and the usual street parade will also be given each morning leaving the show grounds at Douglas and Eighteenth streets at 10 o'clock. 3 The antidotc for this sultry weather may be found at Lake Mana: Briefs from the OCourtw.

AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA Tueeday, June 23, is the Date Bet for the Bpecial Bond Election. SCHOOL AND OVERLAP ISSUES PROBABLE It 1s Argued that City Will Avert Ex- tremely Heavy Tax Levy a Reduce Interest Expe I ng Bon e by Tuesday, June 23, is the date set for holding the special election when the bond proposition will be submitted to the voters. Btreet talk has it that the high school bonds and the overlap bonds will most likely carry. Objections seem to be raised against the voting of the sewer and city hall bonds. ‘Those tamiliar with city hall affairs assert that by all means the overlap bonds should be voted, as by taking up this overlap, which has been growing for ten years, those holding claims against the city will be paid and the interest on this outstanding indebtedness will be decreased. At the present time the overlap amounts to $70,000. 8hould these bonds fall to carry the old claims will either be pald out of the 103 levy or else carried along at the same rate of interest now being pald. Should it be deemed advisable to wipe out the debt this year quite an iIncrease in the levy will be made. Those famillar with city finances assert that the best way out of the difficulty is to vote the bonds and thus give the munici- pality plenty of time In which to secure the money to meet the obligations. These bonds, if issued, are to be payable in from one to twenty years and will draw 6 per cent Interest, or less, If bidders can be ob- tained. As the security is considered ex. cellent it is figured that the bonds will bring a premium. At the present time the general bonded debt of the city is $307,00 and the addition of $70,000 will make a total general Indebtedness of only $377,000, which is not considered high for a city having a valuation of over $18,000,000. Arrangements fo: the holding of the spe- clal election are about completed. Yes- terday Clerk Shrigley sent to the official printer of the city a list of the places of registratior and this Jist will be printed today. Only one day will be given for a revislon of the registration.

Nearly all the alleys in the business por- tion of the city are in a decidedly filthy and unhealthy condition. The attention of Mayor Koutsky has been called to this condition a number of times within the last month. Not long ago the mayor di- rected the sanitary inspector to serve no- tices to clean up. While the notices were accepted when served, no attention was paid to the order and dally the condition of the alleys becomes wor: Formerly the mayor was in a position to instruct the police to see to It that or- ders to clean up were obeyed under pen- alty of arrest. Now that the mayor has nothing whatever to do with the police force, the orders of the inspector are dis- regarded, thus endangering the health of t citizens. Physiclans say that should the weather turn off real hot the filth in the back yards and alleys will bring about considerable sickness. The Board of Health is practically powerless without the aid of the police to enforce orders is. sued by it Dead Street Car Ratls. For the last five years the council has at various times endeavored to have the Omaha Street Rallway company take up dead ralls on N street. A line of dead rafls, with no connection whatever with the main line, extends on N street from ‘Twenty-fourth to Twenty-sixth street. In places these dead rails are from two to three inches above the brick pavement. Requests have been made of the company 1o take up these rails, but no attention has been paid to such requests. The city couneil has the power to enforce its orders in this connection if it so desires, but all that It has sver done was Lo instruct the {ting the recelver to make such arrange- | clerk to notify the company te remove the dead ralls. Almost dally accidents are narrowly averted by reason of the ralls in question projecting above the pave- ment. City Obligations Due. Treasurer Howe has prepared a state- ment for the city councll showing the amount due at the state fiscal agency in New York City on July 1. The total is $7,13. This amount is divided between paving and curbing districts and interest on renewal and refunding bonds. As there is no money on hand in any of the funds mentioned it will be necessary for the mayor and council to borrow the money to meet the payments. Money bor- rowed in this manner is repaid to the banks as soon as property owners settle the taxes for paving, grading, curbing, ete. Fire Horses Disabled. Two of the horses in the fire department are on the sick list and the attention ot the Fire and Police board is to be called to the fact that the department needs not less than thres horses. One of the horses at No. 1 house has been in the hospital tor a couple of weeks and Wednesday “Joe," the reserve horse, was taken sick and the services of a veterinary were needed. The horse that Chief Garrett drives has been in service for over a dozen years and is almost ready for the bone yard. With the addition of three horses and three men the department would be in first-class shape. On account of the overlap in the fire fund the board is not In a position now to make any purchases or employ any more men than absolutely necessary. George Parks Returns. George Parks, superintendent of construc- tion for the Cudahy Packing company, re- turned yesterday from Kansas City. He sald that the Cudahy plant would be ready to slaughter live stock before the stock yards company would be in position to handle receipts to amount to anything. In speaking of the wreck around the Cudahy house Mr. Parks sald that it had been necessary to dig cars out of five feet of mud in order to reach the tracks. It will be some time, according to Mr. Parks, be- fore the packers and the yards company will be in shape to handle business as ex- peditiously as before the high water. Magile City Gossip. L. A.

Whipple has reported as re- celver of the interstate Mutual Hafl com- | pany that A. 8. Churchill, president, has turned over to him the property of the | concern, which consists of the books, a | number of promissory notes and an old letter file with correspondence; that the notes are signed by nonresidents and will be hard to collect; that these notes consti- tute the only valuable part of the resources | of the company; that there are a large | number of claims flled against the com- pany, some of which have been allowed and some of which are contested.

HARFINA !0.!?1 on receipt of prige by HAY BPECIAL Free Cake Harfina Soap sold at lnfllnyrrll;u Ferris Stock Company at the Doyd, Mr. Dick Ferrls may accept the crowded house that greeted him at the Boyd last evening as a personal testimonial. Not that the company bearing his name has not had uniformly large houses since its sea- son opened, for Mr. Ferris knows that, having access to the box office reports. But the presence of an unusual number on Thursday evening is undoubtedly due to some extraordinary attraction, and in this Instance the occasion must have heen the bill and the star. The part of Fitzhew in “The Man from Mexico” 1s one well fitted for Mr. Ferris' uses, and he makes the most of it. His training and natural bent is In the direction of light comedy. and In these roles he does his best work. His natural manner is well suited to the part he has in the present plece, and he certainly makes it go. Other members of the company find thomselves well located in the cast. While the plece ls almost farcical, it still gives room for some good character work, and this opportunity fs promptly taken advan- tage of. Mr. Siddons is good as Colonel Majors, the man who made all the trouble and Qidn't get his friend out of it; Mr. Mylle as Cook, the omnipresent deputy sherift, 1s also good, and Mr. Caldwell does a capital bit of work as Warden Loveall. Harry Barlow's work as the German, who sought only for vengeance was much en- joyed by the audience, Miss Pavey finds the part of Mrs, Fitzhew well within her grasp, and Miss Hil aid an excellent bit | of work as Nettie Majors. The plece is staged and dicected with the care that has marked every ~production given under Mr. Long's direction, and that means that nothing is omitted. Last night it was given with a dash that would give the Impression that the company had been organized solely to play “The Man from Mexico.” It will continue the bill until after Sunday evening. On Monday evening “Graustark” will be given, with both Mr. Ferris and Miss Hayward in the cast. Sunday school plenics at Courtland Beach are the thing just now. Leaves Rallrond for Insurauce. E.
