CHURCH JANITOR AND ART
Special Committee VIII EndeRvOr to
Straishten out Their Tangled
Condition.

The trouble in the First Methodist church
between Janitor Innis and Choirmaster
Kelly has reached a special committee,
which has been requested by the music
committee and the board of trustees to set
tie all differences between the conflicting
parties.
There was mass meeting at the Com
mereial club rooms Monday afternoon at
which the trustees, the music committee
and the pastor were present. The matter
was gone over, but no facts other than
those previously published were developed
and three members OF the board were re-
quested to hear both parties and make
recommendation to the full board. The
members do not desire to have their names
announced until after a decision has been
reached.

entirely without fire protection. Lobeck

INJURED, declaring they did not know ex-
actly where the council came in on the

Brewing Company Protests.
Attorney ogden and Charles Metz ap-
peared for the Metz Brewing company and
protested against the proposed closing OF
Martha street at It's intersection with the
Burlington and Union Pacific tracks. The
council has planned for a subway under
Bancroft street to the south, which would
divert the travel from Martha street. At
torney Ogden explained that the closing
of Martha street, where a fiagman is now
maintained by the railroads, would injure
property owned by the Metz company on
Martha street. City Engineer Rosewater
stated that Martha street did not extend
across the tracks, never having been dedi-
Gated to- the city, and therefore was no
authorized highway at all at the intersee-
ton with the tracks. No action was taken
1t was decided to set aside $500 from
the general fund for Ak-sar- Ben lighting.
This. is the amount usually expended for
the purpose.
Frank B. Montgomery, through Attorney
w. A. Saunders. asked that Twenty seventh

he can exchange strip of ground fifty
feet wide. and 295 feet long for 5000 interest
on regular taxes and about $500 special
taxes. II this 10 done he is willing to pay
500 regular taxes. The matter was re-
terred to a comnIittee to look up the ne
cessity OF opening the street.

WOMAN IN CLUB AND CHARITY

The Omaha City Mission association Is
contemplating several important and much
needed improvements to the mission prop
erty at Tenth and Capitol avenue. to be
made as soon as the weather will permit.
The lot is to be inclosed bv a fence OF a
size that will shut out much that is OBJ
jectionable in the vicinity: the yard will
be leveled UP and put in shape for a play
ground; the city water and sewer pipes
Will be extended to add these conveniences
to the building. and an addition will be
built at the rear Of the present building
TO be used for bath, fumigating and store
rooms. These improvements have long
been needed and the lack Of them has been
a serious handicap TO the work. The alb
sence Of fence has made It impossible to
control the yard or regulate play hours for
the smaller children, while the lack Of
fumgating and store rooms has seriously
interfered with the work Of supplying
clothing TO the needy Of the vicinity. The
miscellaneous contribution of clothing
makes fumigatiou imperative, and dry,
safe place TO store these things is equally
necessary. Perhaps most important Of all
is the bath room Coming, as many of the
children do from homes that consist OF
one or two little rooms that almost in
variably must accommodate a large family
and frequently members OF other families
too, the bath is practically unknown, the
result being not only unpleasant but
positive menace as we'll. The class work
has been especially profitable this winter,
and, while much OF II win be suspended as
soon as warm weather comes, it is Miss
Magee's intention to supply other interests
for the summer that will keep the children
together and enable her 20 keep In touch
with them until the work opens again in
the fall.

Bridge to be Removed from the Della
ware to the Potomac.

1t is said that the Pennsylvania Rail
road Company will remove the bridge,
now across the Delaware river at Phila-
delphia to Washington and place II
across the Potomac river The Della
ware bridge which is twO-track struct-
ure is deemed to be inadequate for the
great amount of traffic over that line to
Atlantic City. 1t is intended to con-
struct a four track bridge across the
Delaware to take its place, and conse-
quently the Fridge can be used elsewhere.
The bridge to be built across the Poto-
mac river is intended to be a two-track
structure. The present bridge over the
Delaware will be taken to pieces and re-
moved to Washington, where it will be
put together again. The work of taking
this Delaware bridge to pieces will be
insignificant compared with that of con
/ structing new bridge. The work OF
removal will be begun as soon as the
stone work has been completed.
