been known to stand In with the pres
ent board 10 any extent. 1t has criti-
csed the methods Of the board very
freely and the board as whole does not
take kindly to THE BEE.
But this paper is not hide-bound aud
does not propose to countenance any
move that would inevitably cripple our
public school system, aud for two years
to come, would deprive hundreds OF our
children of school facilities.
We can forego an enlargement Of the
high school building. We can vote
down the proposition to build new
wing to that structure. We do need
more school houses and can not afford to
put off their erection another year,
even il morally certain that there will
be jobberv in the purchase Of lots and
erection of school houses. But there is
to be an election two weeks hence for
one-third OF the school board, and IL
any member whose time is up does not
possess the confidence of tie electors, he
will be showed under. But there is every
prospect that vigilance will be exercised
and iobbery thwarted. The people are
wide-awake and the members of the
board know that every move they make
will be watched.
Are we to vote down every bond pro-
position for public buildings and I'M
provements because jobbers and specu-
lators are liable to work the council
and board of public works?

seven thousand dollars year for
temporary school rooms. The interest on
two hundred and twenty-five thousand
dollars of five per cent. bonds is eleven
thousand two hundred and twenty-five
dollars year. Is there any economy
in paying out seven thousand year for
store rooms and fre-traps that are not
suited for school rooms, when you can
more than double your school capacity
by erecting commodious and we'll

The talk that taxes will be lower if
the bonds are voted down is all bosh.
Omaha will never stultify herself by
excluding several thousand children
from her schools. She will either rent
ull SUFtS Vi DullulEBS lOr SCnOOi use, anu
pay out ten or eleven thousand dollars
ayear rent, or build her own school
houses and pay q fraction over eleven
thousand dollars annual interest on her
bonds. Where is the taxpayer going to
save money by voting down
the bond proposition3 On the
othe hand, the purchase of lots
and the erection OF school houses will
place two hundred and twenty-five
thousand dollars in circulation among
property owners, merchants and work
ingmen. That will make itself felt
materially in this dull season, and when
capitalists come to Omaha to locate, the
| fact that we can boast of large aud ele.
giant school houses and excellent school
facilities, will go far toward inducing
them to invest and locate here. 1t goes
without saying that public school facili-

where their children can enjoy the
best educational advantages.

GOOD OUT OF EVIL.
DIR. Rosenau's Sermon at the Syna-
gOgue Last Night.

gOgue Last Night.
The Jewish synagogue was crowded last
night by the congregation of the church to
hear sermon by DIR. William Rosenau, OF
Cincinnati, who is a prospective successor
Rabbi Benson as shepherd of Israeps flock
in Omaha. DR.. Rosenau is graduate Of
Union college, OF Cincinnati, and is young
man of excellent promise. He Is tall fine
looking, and under thirty years Of age. He
was introduced by Rabbi Benson and con-
Quoted the opening services.
DIR. ROsenau'S theme was "Good Out O
EVIL" and he reached his text by telling in
an entertaining and eloquent manner the
story of Jacobs son who was sold by his
brothers as slave to Egyptian traders. 1t
was apparently direful happening but
joseph came TO renown, the needy lad be-
came the kind supporter, the menial slave
became the respected priest, and said TO his
brothers who sold him, in the language Of
the text, "You meant it for evil against me.
but God meant it for good"
DIR. Rosenau held that much of the suffer-
ing and sorrow that affects the human race
is due 10 the fact that man in his weakness
OF heart can not understand that God will
bring good out OF matters that appear alto
gether evil and unfortunate, just as Joseph's
hardships proved the salvation of O nation.
Our incorrect valuation of our lot gives rise
TO lamentations when disappointment greets
our fondest expectation. We grumble at
sickness, when disease is often an escape
from other Affections, and, after it, tho body
is stronger and the mind clearer. Regretted
death is often the release of n suffering soul.
Dreaded poverty has ability TO work it's share
OF good. Penury and need have given to the
world some of its greatest minds, mind that
plenty would have robbed Of courage ana as
piration. Judaism has not lived an undis-
turbed life. 1t has suffered by persecution
such as no other creed ever received from
enemies. Every page Of its history records a
persecution, yet each calamity has been but
the precursor OF greater benefits. The de-
struction of the temple in sacred Palestine
could not destroy the Sinai born religion. 1t
taught the Jews to cast aside splendor and
make learning paramount
BE our lot ever sad, our misfortunes
ever so discouragng, let US be ready to
give TO all Affections the answer that the
Egyptian prince gave 10 his prosecuting
brothers: "You meant 1t for evil against
me, but God meaut it for good" Pour thy
strengthening consolation, on, Lord, into the
hearts of all distressed; bless and pre-

The American sugar beet is sweeter by
about 33 per cent than any other beet on the

extract of sugar from German, French, or

Chimes of Normandy.

Since the introduction of the new
patent ventilating fan at Harris thea
ter, this popular place of amusement is
zsodelightfully cool that crowded houses
have been the rule at every perform
ance during the past week. Tomorrow
night, when the first perfor nance OF
Pianquette's lovely opera, THE Chimes
Of Normandy" will have its first pro-
duction here at the hands of the Wilbur
Opera company, the new engine will
be in running order, when the entire
house can be made as cool as in re-
frigerater. There is perhaps no other
opera that is so much in favor with the
ladies and children as the Chimes" and
certain it is that no other comic opera
ismore eftenproduced. There are many
bright sayings, much catchy music and
melodiOus airs, beautiful stage dressing,
and the novelty of its humor fills the
auditorium with laughter continually.
In this opera, as has been the case with
all thus far given by the Wilbur com.
pany. the entire wardrobe utilized will
be new and handsome. and the stage de-
tails as perfect as possible. For the
present production, and i'll addition to
the regular cast, j. II. Jones. who is
said to be the best "Gaspard" on the
American stage, will enact this role.
During the second act, and for the first
time in Minneapolis, the company will

are any, are revealed by the shaking-up
process, and can be repaired after the
new foundation IS reached.

skids. The Plebs made many a
kick against the system of gov
eminent. but they were never
called in mass meeting to protest
against the hauling of skating rink
through the forum. They were spared
this Indictment to revolution and pro-
scription. House moving is essentially
a modern art, and pre-eminently an
American one. Chicago is, before all
others, the city of house movers. In
that enterprising metropolis the re-
moval of frame buildings from one sit
uation to another has ceased to be inter-
esting. The transplanting of heavy
brick and stone piles now engages the
attention of the Chicago house mover. A
few years ago the whole country was
informed of the marvellous feat that had
been performed there in raising the
board of trade building and putting a
new foundation under it. But that
labor has passed from the realm of the
miraculous to the commonplace since
Chicago house-moverS have succeeded
in raising a solid brick structure, five
stories high, and removing it $50 feet
from its former location, building new
foundation, and setting down the build
ing without cracking a wall. Such a
piece of work is an example of
patience and careful perseverance
that might we'll arouse the envey of the
spider. AS a center of house moving
Minneapolis has not progressed so far.
But one brick building has been moved
the ordinance governing such work was
passed. That was on the site of the
big Northwestern freight depot on
Tenth avenue south. 1t was three
story brick tenement. with store or
saloon beneath. A Milwaukee firm had
the contract, and succeeded in
raising the structure on jack
screws and sliding it its own
width to the next lot without
moving brick. The first thing that
had to be done was to figure out the APP
proximate weight of the building. This
was done by obtaining the number of
for plastering, iron, etc. The bearings
accordingly and the building was raised
by the most patient process distance
of twelve inches. Then the building
was thoroughly propped and supported
and the process of sliding laterally on
soaped beams began. The whole job
was performed In a comparatively
few days and the building
was found to be as good
as ever. The moving of frame build
ings is simpler. Yet it is a tedious pro-
cess and by no means picturesque. The
spectacle of a house with its porches
torn off, its chimney down, its windows
out and perhaps piece of unfinished
back wall exposed where summer kit
chen was pulled away, is not especially
esthetic. Add to the artistic effect of
