believer in the principle of insurance" he

The Passing of a GentIewOmRn.
When Helen +. Thomas died the other
day there went from us one OF those rare
spirits known as a Eentlewoman. This
dominant characteristic enveloped her
whole nature. She was a broadly educated,
tolerant. cultured clear minded woman In
the fullest sense OF that expressive word.
Possessed OF a wonderfully tenacious mem
DRY, she was a perfect ready-reference In
wide field Of literature; she had travelled
extensively and charmed her friends by the
vivid word pictures Of her experiences In
foreign lands. Her religion meant more TO
her than mere formula, for she was ever
the quiet, helpful friend to SO many who
will miss her. Her life was filled TO the
brim with the golden record Of that char
ity which is surely twice blessed. because
of the spirit which prompted 1t. It was
beautiful life OF good deeds. rounded out to
a painless, ohildlke death. And something
more than the mere passing word should be
said when a woman Of such mingled
strength and sweetness passes into the
silence.
Miss Thomas was born at Holland Pat
ent, N Y, and came TO Omaha In 1859,
where she has lived continuously, with the
exception OF intervals OF travel. She is
survived by brothers and sisters resident
here, B. II. BARROWS.

OMAHA, Sept. 2-To the Editor of The
Bee: The Park board has spent a vast
amount of time gratuitously in the inter
est Of identifying this city and the results
Of it's work will grow in the appreciation
of our citizens, In proportion to the growth
of trees planted, together with the lncreas-
ing congestion OF population. The Trans
mississippi exposition awakened our peo-
pie to the fact that the Bluff tract over
looking Cut OF lake, with its view I'M
paralleled for grandeur In this city, is by
its topography and it's central location pre-
eminently adapted to the wants Of the city
for park purposes. A widespread move
ment to that end failed and building ac-
tivity within the last two years has en-
croa ched on this tract so as to prevent It's
requirement for park purposes In reso-
luton to the city council recommending
the condemnation of a strip along the
brow of this BLUM for boulevard purposes,
together with a strip connecting with
Kountze park on Twentieth street, the
Park board has earned the gratitude OF
every progressive citizen in this thickly
settled part of the city. As no part of the
cost of acquiring this strip is collected from
the city at large, the small amount re-
quired being distributed among the inter-
ested property owners in the adjacent dis
trict, there should be no opposition to this
improvement. When it is completed pre-
dict II will be the most popular scenic
