ANNOUNCEMENTS of the Theater..

Eduard Strauss famous orchestra, which
promises the musical treat OF the year to
Boyd theater patrons tomorrow night, is III
some respects quite unlike any OF the other
great orchestral organizations in Europe.
Eduard Strauss, while accepting none but
the very highest class OF musicians as his
associates, preserves an element Of popular
ity in his concerts that is cleverly dis
tinctive. His programs abound in the high
est and best productions OF vast range OF
compositions. The surprising diversity OF
selections Is one OF the chief charms OF
Strauss concerts, and the dash and spirit
with which every work Is delivered are
peculiar characteristics Of Strauss himself
His dynamic force is too evident to permit
OF an uninspired moment Saturday "Pri-
vate John Allen" is the bill at the Boyd for

Mr.. C0NNELL REMAINS FIRM
city Attorney Has Something More
Ia sny About
PAVING.

In proof OF my statements that the
present method Of laying pavement is
satisfactory and that the petition system
under which repaving is done is giving
the city of Omaha much trouble maintain
that there has not been a piece of original
paving laid in the city contrary to the
wishes of a majority of the property owners
who were taxed to pay for the improve
ment," said City Attorney Connell "If all
our rcpaving were entrusted. to the council
and mayor and II petitions were abolished
entirely the city would save thousands of
dollars i'm the next ten years.
THE bill which I have prepared is a jtist
and equitable measure. 1t protects the city
and gives property owners the power TO
stop improvements where they do not de-
sire them. The intersection fund bonds
for a year are limited to 100000. so
1t Is not possible for the council
to lay an unreasonable amount of paving.
Under the petition system all the burden
or proof Is on the city and the slightest
defect in a petition will invalidate the tax
on an entire district In case a man who
claims 10 be property owner signs petit
tion and it is later shown that he did not
own the property his name may be struck
from the petition and the tax invalidated
After seeing all the trickery which is
piattlced III connection with petitions for
special improvements | cannot understand
why fair-minded citizens will support the
petition system. | am told that the bill
which w. S. Poppleton is preparing will
contain clause providing that persons who
have possession OF property for two years
shall be deemed owners when improvements
are to be made for which the property in
question is to be taxed That provision will
not settle the question OF ownership"

WILL BREAK GROUND SOON
Omaha Amateur Athletic Association
IL Actively Mt
work.

Grading for the grounds and building of
the Omaha Amateur Athletic association will
be under. way within a few days and every
effort will be made to hasten the work in
order that the club may be comfortably
housed before spring. The grading Will
necessitate the removal of $1,000 yards Of
earth from an area 6O0x350 feet, and the
ground, when prepared, will be laid out in
base ball and foot ball grounds and tennis
courts. Just where the club house will be
located has not been determined.
Officers and members of the new athletic
association are more than pleased with the
interest which has been aroused. The To-
cation of the grounds has been disposed of
in particularly satisfactory manner. The
club has secured "A ten years lease from
the county commissioners for twenty-five
acres OF land forming the south part of the
county poor farm. The site is situated be-
tween Center street and Woolworth avenue
and is bounded on the east by Thirty-sixth
street. IL is in easy walking distance from
The residence portions Of Hanscom park or
West Farnam and Is conveniently situated
to the car lines--a west side park line car
carrying one from sixteenth and Farnam
10 the proposed location of the club house
in twenty minutes
Besides the base ball, foot ball, tennis and
cricket grounds, which will be laid out on
the portion of the site that is to be graded,
golf links will be provided upon the land
already leased and upon some fifteen addi-
tional acres on which the association ex-
poets soon to procure lease.
Plans for the club house have not yet
been decided upon. The building however,
will be n two-story structure and will fol-
low out the general idea of such club
houses. Wide verandas will surround the
house. and the lower floor will be given
over to reception room, parlor, dining
hall, kitchen and womens dressing rooms.
The upper floor will consist of a large room
to be used either as a dancing hall or gym
nasium, locker and toilet rooms, billiard
rooms and gentlemens dressing rooms.
The membership in the club is growing
at rapid rate. II Is limited to 500 and
many young men of the city-and young in
this instance has relation rather to spirit
than to age-are forwarding their applica-
tions TO Secretary Harry Doorly, entertain,
Ing some trepidation lest they shall be left
out because of the membership being COM
pleted. President John Francis is giving
much OF his personal attention to the at
fairs OF the club, and it promises to be
most successful organization.

PRETTY GIRL CAUSES FEUD
Italians In Omaha Resume War Car
ried from Across the
Ocean.

a pretty little romance came to light
yesterday in the case of Dan Cemo, the
Italian fruit vendor, who Is being held at
the police station on the charge OF stab
bing his countryman, Junde NuntZ. with
stiletto. Neither can speak English.
Yesterday an interpreter called upon Cemo
and succeeded in drawing from him the
story OF which the stabbing affair was the
sequel.
In sunny Italy two years ago both men
belonged to the same secret society and
shared their counses with an ardent young
Italian named Toni Rocho. Toni was in
love, as all true Italians are, and his
black eyed inamorita returned his affection.
But her father did not smile upon Toni's
suit. He took the girl away to Il distant
city, hoping she would forget her lover.
A few days later Toni received a letter
from her. 1t was couched in cold. hard
terms-so unlike Gemma as he had
known her-yet there was no mistaking the
handwriting. So in a At of desperation
Toni shot himself.
The lodge ofiiciated at TOMS funeral.
Scarcely had the flowers withered upon
his grave when another letter came. 1t
was addressed to Toni. The lodge ap-
pointed committee to read and act upon
1t, and IL CHANGED that Cemo and Nuntz
served upon that committee. The letter,
which was from Gemma, was full OF tender,
endearing terms. 1t hoped he wouldn't feel
hard toward her for what she had written
before, as her father had been standing over
her as she wrote. debating. Soon she
would find way Of running away from
him and would return to Toni.
Cemo and Nuntz took the missive out and
laid 1t on the grave of Toni. and while

and each was rejected. Each, then, look

passing his defeat. and matters were in
this condition when the men left Italy for
America. They have met several times
since their arrival in Omaha and have
quarreled. Now. however, Cemo claims to
be penitent and has promised to let the
