reports that the enrolment for October

the enrolment Of a year ago. More school
rooms are needed and the superintendent
has made a number Of recommendations.
1t is thought by members Of the Board Of
Education that when the additions to the
school buildings now under construction are
completed there will be room enough for
the present school year. 1t will be neces-
sary next year. however. TO provide 8ddi-

Mayor Koutsky and members Of the city
counci are figuring on having q consulta-
ton early next week with Herman Kountze
in regard TO a suitable road TO the river.
MIR. kountze has only recently returned
from a business trip and the city officials
are pleased at the prospect Of an early
conference. Some time ago Mr.. Kountze
signi6ed his willingness 10 open a road
through his property to the recently con-
structed emergency hospital. As long as
Mr.. Kountze remained in Omaha the road
was open, but when he left his local agent,
Sieger. locked the gate and wanted com
pensation before permitting vehicles to
cross the Kountze property. At the time
the emergency hospital was erected there
was an understanding between the city Of
hcials and Mr.. Kountze about the road
way.
Unless a compact in writing can be made
within the next few days for the opening
Of the road the city viii, II is said, com
mence condemnation proceedings. In this
the county commissioner will doubtless
be interested. as the county paid for the
erection of the hospital with the under
standing that the city was TO maintain it.
A delegation Of ciey ~ofhcials intend wait
ing upon Mr.. Kountze on Monday in order
that a report OF some sort may be made to
the council at the meeting TO be held on

A very wen attended meeting Of the
South Omaha Live Stock exchange was held
yesterday afternoon. The proposition TO
do away with solicitors was brought up and
was turned down. This question has been
raised before and as a difference OF opinion
existed between the members II was brought
to a vote yesterday. Unless there is a de-
cided change in the sentiment expressed,
the commission firms will still employ
travelling solicitors.
When this proposition was turned down
it was suggested that all solicitors be com
PEELED to pay $50 for a license. This money.
If the proposition is carried at the next
meeting, will go into the exchange treas
Ury.
Some Of the members OF. the exchange do
