The last four OF the above list were taken
up specially for the reason that there were
police records against the men. They
were disposed of by the solemn promise
Of the licensees to abide by the rules of
the board. Barry Cogan was specially
charged by the police board that his license
would be cancelled at once II he should
be brought up for any further offenses.
@. w. Tierny became sponsor for the good
conduct of the place. and with the under
standing that the fret offense would de-
prlve him OF the license Cogan was allowed
to continue business.
The case Of Peter Uviek came up and his
license was promptly denied on the ground
that he was not man Of good moral
character. Uviek has been up time and
again in police court for breaches Of the
law and disorder He made the charge
against the chief that the latter had q
grudge against him and had repeatedly
threatened to run him out OF business.
Turning to the chief he said dramatically:
What kind Of a man are you? Would you
run a poor old man back to the packing
houses?'
The chief said YES that's where you be-
long" At this point the board demanded
order and Uviek made his departure. The
chief gave him strict orders to close up
at u o'clock last night.
In the cases which are still under pro-
test the board made a special ruling allow
ing them to keep open pending the decision
OF the cases, since their bonds were filed.
There was nothing to indicate the least

loon men appear to have universally ac-
cepted the conditio nof AFFAIRS.

and 1t was then discovered that there was
only one bidder on the market. This was
w. ]. Hayes & Sons OF Cleveland, o. They
offered par for the bonds with a premium
of 1879 and agreed to pay for the printing
of the bonds and TO pay the accrued in
| terest. The bonds were to be issued in

received from Hoehler a Cummings Of

Mi hat ~.
appointed at the bid OF the bond company,
It being the least that the South omaha
securities have ever commanded in the
way OF premiums. The city hall site bonds
commanded nearly $500 on an issue OF
10000. A representative of Hoehler 4 Cum
mings was present and he made the ex-
PLANTATION OF the situation to the effect
that the money market was very stringent
in the east, and especially since the San
Francisco disaster. He expressed his Opin-
ion that South Omaha had received a re-
markedly good bid and practically that
his company would not be able to make
better ofter. The issue OF the bonds WA
well advertised in all the prominent imam
eial papers Of the east.
Discuss High school.
The faculty OF the South Omaha schools
grappled with the question of the status
OF the so-cailed high school fraternity
yesterday morning. A mass meeting OF
the students was called At the usual time OF
the morning assembly The faculty pre-
scented its side Of the question. The ma.
jority Is decidedly opposed to the fraternity
notion. At best they are considered a re-
Election or imitation OF the better known
Greek letter fraternities Of the universities

done in many other cities. In the meeting
yesterday nothing more than an unfavor.
able opinion was expressed. with a possible
hint OF sterner measures. Several resula.
lions were laid Gown, however. TO restrict
the influence OF these societies. The prfn.

OF his studies. nor was II permitted any
student whose work was deficient TO attend
any functions Of his class or his society
until such deficiency was made good.
The students declare that their clubs an,
other organizations are not I'm any stric
sense a fraternity and some are inclined 4
