Directing to having neighbors climb his
fence and cut across the yard in the eXecu-
tion Of errands, Frank Tomsu, Thirty eighth
and Dorcas streets, proceeded to throw one
of them over the fence yesterday afternoon
and was arrested for his indiscretion. a
friend came down and put up bond for his
appearance and he will be tried later if a
complaint is lodged against him.
TOmsu claims that his neighbors annoy
him exceedingly by taking a short cut across
his premises. He says he has urged them
to go around and once or twice has driven
them away, but it does no good. He is now
trying to cultivate a garden and there is no
room in his yard for neighbors.

able Function In Its History.

The Omaha Wheel club last night gave
one OF the old time smokcrs-one OF those
free and easy affairs which were frequent
enough In years gone by. but are rare in
the present degenerate days Of the safety.
The club rooms were absolutely packed, re-
freshments were plentiful in the extreme
and hlarity and jollty reigned supreme
Taken all in all. It was the premier wheel
club function that has been held in the city
for some years.
The smoker" was given as sort OF
celebration over the impetus that has been
given to the membership roll recently. Dur
ing the last three weeks sixty new members
have been received into the club and more
are knocking for admission. Very nearly
the entire membership seemed to be on
hand at the smoker as the club parlors
were almost uncomfortably crowded The
entertainment was a most forCible ndica-
tion of the need for more extended club
room, which is already being arranged for.
The evening was spent In the customary
manner. There was the usual hit-or-miss
program of songs, music, speeches and fun,
and refreshments were numerous enough to
suit the most hungry and thirsty. During
the last half of the evening the members
of the city council and a number Of city
officials after the council adjourned its
meeting, were present on invitation, and
were given the glad hand. They were called
on for little talks and were themselves
talked at by representatives of the club.
The city dads were not allowed to escape
until they had promised to put the Florence
cycle path in ridable condition and to
accede to other demands OF the wheelmen.
The fun was fast and furious and the func-
tion did not break up until late hour
The affair was unanimously voted the most
successful of its kind in the history of the
club and many good results are expected to
result therpfrom
