Large Audience Well Pleased by the
Program at Kountne Memorial
Church.

Kountze Memorial church held large
and most we'll pleased audience yesterday
evening. the occasion being the last OF the
Ienten concerts given for the beneht and
maintenance Of the Creche. Mrs. ]. Osborne
Hanna and Mr.. Holmes Cowper were ap-
plauded to the echo at each entrance and
exit, and the May festival chorus, which
was seated in the gallery, was also warmly
praised. Mr.. Kelly, who led the chorus In
his usual felicitious manner from the cen
ter Of the gallery, was the recipient OF
flowers, az was also Mrs. Hanna.
Mrs. Hanna has a beautiful voice, clear
and strong in its upper notes and rich and
vibrant in the lower register. The declam-
atory and dramatic style Of the song,
Farewell ye Hills" Tschaikowski, her
most ambitious effort. was particularly
suited to the powerful voice, but ehe was
also very pleasing in the lighter numbers,
such as Piernes "serenade," and the Song
Of Sunshine" Goring- Thomas. Beethoven's
"Neue Liebe, Neuos Leben." and ''Feldein-
samkeit," Brahms, which followed each
other on the program, showed the singers
voice in pleasing contrast-the former airy
and gay, the latter sweet and melodious.
The premier effect Of Mr.. Cowperis sing
ing was one OF taste and refinement and
long study. His is heady, flexible tenor,
not lacking IN strength, but best pleasing
In the classic little songs given, among
which were: Schubert's "Harkl Hark! the
Lark" Hahn's Were My Songs with Wings
Provided" Songs MY Mother Taught Me"
Dvorak, and "The Gondolier," Coombs.
Mrs. Hanna and Mr.. Cowper sang the
farewell duet from Faust" and each con-
tributed eight solo numbers. The chorus
sang three numbers. the last, "The Parting
KISS" Pinsuti being best pleasing.

Pleasure.

The North Omaha Improvement club held

bers Of the club and their families, there
being a larger attendance than at any time
for months. The program was prepared by
a committee Of which @. H. Grattan was
chairman. and was carried out as follows;
Tenor solo. Chase Taylor; song. High
School Captains quartet, consisting of
Hugh wallace and Leslie Higgins, tenors,
Herald johnson and Bert Chaffee, bassos;
barytone solo, Mrs. jamie Marie Perren; ad-
dress, "The Responsibility Of the Indi-
yidual." ]. M, Giiiani bass solo. r. l. Davis.
Mr.. Gillian spoke Of the formation OF large
corporations and association, which has
caused many persons 10 feel that there is
little opportunity for the individual. while
in tact all effort is that of the individual
and the large associations are constantly
looking for individuals to carry on the
work at salaries more remunerative than
the income OF independent workers Of
former days.
At the meeting next Monday night Pres
ident Ellis will announce the committees

claimed when he at last got the ear Of the
capitalist, "All need is sufficient money

estedly. I've heard something to that

But can prove II, urged the schemer.
i've got the real thing; all others are i'm

man; can wake up the fellow who has the
customary listlessness of early spring, and
that means everybody"
'Oh, there are lots Of these spring medi-
cines," asserted the apitalist.
But they don't do the business" per-
sisted the schemer. and mine will You
know how it is in the Spring; we all know.
Are you languid? ARE you listless? Arc
you tired? or course you are. You can
hardly get up enough energy to attend to
your regular business. You long for some

you quick, energetic and sprightly, and

ducing a capsule. '1f Il does not give you

something that will do all claim for It.

a little water If you WISH and then note

The capitalist took the capsule, and i'm

over his chair.

PARK BOARD WILLECONOMIZE
Orders Superintendent to Do Nothing in
Way Of Improvements,
BECAUSE RAILROADS sHlsK THEIR TAXES
Contract for MacadamisIng THIRTEEN
street 60 North city Limits at
Expense of the County f.
Authorized.

DO absolutely nothing in the way Of
park improvements; the funds are short
and we must economize," was the order
given to Park Superintendent Adams by the
Board OF Park Commissioners at it's meet
ing yesterday afternoon. The commission
ers intimated that their chief desire will
be to keep within the limited appropria-
tion due to the fight of the railroads to
avoid paying their taxes. Therefore the
parks are expected to Jog along through the
summer as best they can.
Despite this stringency, however, the
board authorized a contract with the Van
Court q winn company for the macadam-
izing Of Thirtieth street, known as Flor
ence boulevard. from Fort street to the city
limits, distance of more than a mile.
This was done because the cost, about
t12. 900, is 20 be paid by the county. arrange
nnents to that effect having been made. 1t
was stated that the contracting company
would accept the bargain and begin work
soon. Il is the intention Of the county
commissioners to macadamize the road
clear to Florence, as II is one Of the main
Highways to the city from the north.
Keepers to DO Police Duty.
In order TO more effectively stop the desc
Grafton Of the parks and the mutilation OF
the fora and fauna, the commissioners de-
cided TO have most Of the permanent keep
ers given the authority Of special police
men. This privilege will be asked fot three
men--two at Hanseom park and one ON
Florence boulevard-from the fre and po-
lice board at once. Incidentally this meas
ure Is another little step toward economy
and no men will be employed solely for
police duty.
The building of the Central boulevard
be.ween Hanscom park aud Burt street
was discussed. II is going ahead with
labor hired by the board as rapidly as the
funds will permit and more men are to
be put on this month the weather re-
mains open and fine. The board has OF
fered 13 cents a yard for dirt for grading
and property owners in the neighborhood
who have supernuity Of mother earth are
getting rid of 1T at profit, though tha
