CALLED BEFORE THE COURT
Mayor EnsOr of South Omaha IL
Charged with Com
tempt.

The warning factions of the South Omaha
democracy will have an opportunity to dis
play their valor in the mere limited arena
of the district court. incidentally the Ensor
crowd will be compelled to answer to Judge
Fawcett for their alleged violation of his
injunction issued late Saturday night by
which Ensor and his police officers were re-
strained from ejecting Ed Johnston from
the Booths.
Johnston and his attorney were on hand
bright and early to represent to the court
that Ensor and the police failed to recog-
niZe the injunction and had so far disre-
garded the judicial mandate as to jointly
and severally lay hands on Johnston's per-
son and toss him out in the cold world from
which he was unable to ascertain whether
he was getting the worst of it in the offi-
cia count On these statements Judge Faw-
cett directed the attorney TO draw up an
information, charging Mayor Ensor and Po-
lice Ofhcers HydOck, Morrsey and Allie
with contempt. AS soon as the information
is ready, warrants will be issued for the
arrest of the South Omaha officers who are
alleged to have figured in the election OF
Johnston and the court will endeavor to
convince them that its orders are issued to
be obeyed.

Members Call on Poynter to Veto n
Charter Amendment Bill.

At meeting of the North Side Improve
ment club Monday evening the energy of Il
majority of the members was applied to
passing a motion to forward to Governor

veto the bill known as II. r. $50, or char

demning the action of the executive COM

a resolution approving the bill and caus-

Rheumatism the Most Common Dis
PusP.

The most universal disease that affects the
human body is rheumatism, the cause and
nature of which is known to very linn
tied extent even by the best informed physi-
clans. There are several forms of it and
nearly everybody is liable to an attack of it
in some form. When in the back and loins
it is called lumbago; in the hips, sciatca
in the face, neuralgia While there Is some
doubt as to the origin and nature of this dis
ease, there is none whatever as to the best
treatment. Many years of experience has
fully proven that there is nothing so good as
Chamberlain's Pain Balm. One application
relieves the pain.

REPAIRING THE PAyENEyTS
City Council Committee of the Whole
Discusses the Matter
ADJOINING PROPERTY SHOULD PAY COST
Recommendation to lie Made that
Special Assessment he Levied for
Purposc-Ordinnpcc for Bridge
and Terminal Company

The city council will probably determine
that in the future tho cost of all repairs
to all sorts of pavement must be paid Tor
by the adjoining property instead of the
city at large, special assessment being
levied for the purpose. II this plan Is
adopted it will in all probability carry with
it the proposition that no such repairing
shall be ordered unless the adjoining prop-
Crty petitions for It,. It is also within the
range of possibility that adjoining property
will be assessed for the repairing that was
done during the latter part of last yeas
although it is considered rather doubtful
whether this can be legally done.
This matter was pretty thoroughly dis
cussed by the city council at the committee
OF the whole meeting Monday afternoon. II
came up in connection with the bills OF the
Grant Paving company and the Barber
Asphalt company for last years repairs
which were thrown out of the appropriation
sheet at the recent meeting of the council
The items were stricken out on the strength
of an opinion from the city attorney to the
effect that the charter is very plain in de-
claring that the cost of pavement repairs
shall be assessed against adjoining prop
erty. He advised that if it is possible the
expenses for repairing as represented in
the bills of the paving company be so as
sessed, not only to obey the charter pre-
vision, but also because the bills amounting
TO over $4,000 will eat up the entire levy
that has been made for the fund out Of
which the cost of such repairs has been
paid in past years.
Several members of the council were Of
the opinion that the cost of last years re-
pairs could not be assessed because 1t would
be impossible to locate the repairs so that
they could be assessed. City Engineer Rose
water was instructed to learn whether the
repairs have been placed on record He
was also instructed to draw up plans ana
specifications on which contracts for repair
ing can be let In accordance with the prob
able action that adjoining property must
stand the cost. good many contracts for
repairing streets expire this year.
bridge and Terminal Depot.
The council recommended for passage the
ordinance, according to which Chicago street
will be vacated between Tenth and Eleventh
to allow the Omaha Bridge and Terminal
company to erect its freight depot. The or
dtnanCe protects the rights of the city in the
construction of sewer, water and other pipes
under the tracks and depots a suggestion
was made that the company be required to
pave the roadways about the depot, but this
condition was not insisted on when General
Manager Webster asserted that in its own
interests his company would have to keep
the roads to its depot in good condition.
Mr. Webster announced that his company
would begin the construction of the depot
at once. Contracts for the work have al
ready been let. The buildings and other i'm
provements will call for an expenditure Of
some 100000.

AN INSIDIOUS FOE.


A statement has been received by the
Board of Health in New York City from
the Board of Health in Michigan which
is certainly startling. 1t shows the inn
mense tenacity of life of the bacilli of
consumption and should be a warning
TO all those who are brought into con-
tact with Consumptve patients.
The story as given out is that twenty
clerks in the State of Michigan who
Were working over old volumes of rec
ords We're all taken with rapid con-
sumption and died. The books We're
examined by a bacteriologist and were
found to be full of tubercules and ba-
cilli. Investigation showed that the
books had been kept by "a clerk, who
had consumption. He had the habit of
moistening his thumb with saliva when
turning the pages. This the Board of
Health in Michigan considers as fully
explaining the infection of the books.
That we should give more attention
to the subject of consumption is made
plain by the records of our Board of
Health for this district. During the ten
months ending October 81, 1899, there
We're S6S deaths in this district and of
these SO were from consumption that is
to say, la per cent of all the deaths
in Honolulu have occurred from the
disease, 1t is very hard to stir people
up upon matter of this kind, and they
will allow a disease to calmly run its
course without effort against it, if no.
thing has been done in the past. To
guard against the spread of consump-
ton is something new, and so it takes
much argument before any effective
steps are taken.
We are active enough against small
pOX or cholera and spend money readily
to keep such diseases from our shores,
but when it comes to dealing with a
disease that is in our midst all the time,
we calmly lot It go on claiming it's vic
Tins, and ever increasing its ravages.
On the --alnland the subject of con-
sumption is a very live question indeed,
in Europe the subject is having the
greatest interest taken in it, Those
who are trying to grapple with it, are
not only striving to find a cure, and
have some measure Of success in that
direction, but they devote themselves to
means of prevention.
We have had it openly stated by ply
sicians here that a consumptive can be
found any day in the week in one of
the Nuuanu street restaurants, that he
eXpectorates on the floor, and that from
such eXpectorations, when they dry,
emanate hordes of bacilli which are
ready to spread the disease wherever a
congenial soil is to be found. The case
cited is no isolated one either. We know
of the consumption death rate in Ho-
nolulu, we know nothing about what 1t
is upon the other Islands. There are
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1899-11-18

no records kept there, which are Of any
value, but it can be very safely be said
that the percentage of deaths from con-
sumption in the outer districts is as
large if not larger than that in the
urban and suburban district
What we want is action on the part
of the Board of Health. The whole OF
the medical fraternity recognize the
dangers of consumption, and many Of
them have written valuable treatises
upon the point. But an ounce of action
is worth many pounds of treatise and
one would like to see the Board face
this question and do something towards
campaign which should at least curb,
if it does not eradicate the ravages of
one of mankinds most insidious foes.
