PROBABLY TWO POLISH CHURCHES
West Siders Have Bought Site and viii
Begin tho Erection of :
Church Immediately.

The prospects are now that There
will be two Polish Catholic churches
in this city, one on the East side and
one On the West side. >''
For some time the Polish residents
of this city have desired a house OF
worship separate from the other
churches of that denomination.
Funds were raised for that purpose
but the matter of the selection of a
site for a church has divided the Po-
lish residents Of the city into two
factions, one on each side OF the river.
Among the promoters and heaviest
contributors to the church fund,
were some of the West siders, and
they were willing that the church
should he built on the East side, pro-
vided the location selected was a
central one.
The Eastsiders evidently outnum-
bered the Westsiders and outvoted
them in the selection OF a site, and in
stead of securing q central location,
purchased a site in the extreme
southeast corner Of the city, near by
the homes of quite a large number OF
Polish people.
The Westsiders do not propose to
abide by this choice and have decided
to build church of their own on the
West side as soon as possible. On
Monday three lots were purchased,
located on Fourth street between
Third and Fourth avenues south
west, for that purpose. Today a. force
OF men and teams are at work haul
ing rock for the foundation. Messrs.
H. F. Schleusener and A. D. Harrison
have been instructed to draw up
plans for church building, the main
part to be 4Ox7O feet, with an adj
dition 1Sx2O feet for the altar room.
Speaking about the new church to-
day, one of the West siders, promi'
nent in the movement for a church in
that part OF the city, stated that they
had not secured the permission OF
Bishop Trobec for the West side
church, as he favored the Polish PEG.
pie uniting in our congregation.
However, he said they had the per-
mission of five, u majority of the
bishops consulters, and they would
proceed at once to the erection Of the
building.

on $500 Bond.

DR.. O. E Taylor, the temperance lee
turer who was arrested at Granite

plate glass window in Henry Hum

gave 5000 bond there before a justice

that he had broken a window in the
restaurant. He had broken open the
door to get his satchel, in order not to
miss a train, and the night Waterman
was with him when he did it.

held is an indictable one, but the pun
ishment is limited to a fine or Jail
sentence, Had the charge been one
where the punishment may be impris-
ment in the state penitentiary, DR..

"The Truth About Nebraska"

This is the title of a 24.page folder,
recently issued by the Burlington
route and containing, besides a brief
introduction, nine letters from resi-
dents of the state, setting forth their
experiences since they settled in
Nebraska.
The letters make it clear that the
man who comes to Nebraska with few
hundred dollars, a good head and q
stout heart can, in the course of few
years, be independent of landlords,
rent-day, and all the other miseries
which make life a struggle for the ten.
ant of an eastern farm. They demon
strate that the money he pays for the
rent of farm anywhere east of the
Missouri river will buy a better farm
west of it. They show that Nebraska
is not simply corn state"-that in
Nebraska, the avenue to wealth is
through cattle, wheat, and fruit as
well as through corn.
The folder is we'll printed, on good

Mrs. Conklin and DIR. Dryer had an
interesting discussion at the Methodist
church Friday evening, which detained
the large audience much longer than it
had expected to stay. Mrs. Conklin
made an assertion in her lecture to the
effect that no young man who goes
through college comes out pure. DR..
DRYER. who was sitting back of the
pulpit, challenged this statement and
said that it reflected on young men who
had gone to college from this city, and
mentioned several of these by name.
He said that he had himself gone
through college, and did not like to be
classed as the lecturer had done. He
made somewhat extended comments.
Mrs. Conklin did not enter into dis
cussion of the matter to any extent, but
continued with her lecture.
