WATER BOARD GIVES ITS SIDE
John L. Webster Says Appraisement of
Two Members OF Commits
sion n Invalid.

Attorney Howard o. Mansfield, principal
counsel for the Omaha Water company,
concluded his argument Tuesday morning
before Judge W. H. Munger in the matter
of recurring the city OF Omaha and the
water board Of the city Of Omaha to ac-
cept the tender of the plant and property
of the Omaha Water company at the APP
praised valuation Of 100000 as agreed
upon by the majority Of the board of APP
praisers appointed to fix the valuation Of
the property. Mr.. Mansfield held that
neither the water company nor the city or
Omaha had a right to defeat the contract
entered into, pursuant with the ordinances
of the city authorizing that such purchase
should be made.
John 1. webster one of the special at
torneys for the city Of Omaha and water
hoard began his argument at 1880. He
held the contract for purchase related
only TO that portion Of the water works
system within the corporate limits Of the
city of Omaha.
Judge Munger asked Mr. Webster why,
as the appraisers were acting under the
request of the Water board. their appraise-
ment should be void. Mr.. Webster replied:
'IJnder the act of 1905 the power was
conferred upon the city to accept or reject
the report of the appraisers. The appraise-
ment award was made July 9. 1906. The
board of water works met as soon there
after as possible that same night and
passed a resolution rejecting that award.
The question arose as to whether two
members Of the appraising board could
make an award. Section IA Of ordinance
42s authorized the city to purchase the
water works plant upon the estimate made
by three appraisers and not by two. Moth
ing was said about a majority award, and
there is no word or implication in this sec
ton that will justify an award by less
| than three members of the appraisement
| board"
Mr.. Webster resumed his argument in
the afternoon. The hearing will not be
closed before Wednesday noon, IL then.

bachelor Friend.hinn.

'Tf you are really anxious to learn how
long couple have been married all you
have to do is to note whether his friends
or hers I'LL the house." said a woman who
always makes use Of her bright brown eyes.
at first a man invites all his bachelor
friends to the house, under the impression,
which is invariably wrong, that they will
like his wife and she will like them. What
ever the reason. most women fnd their
husbands bachelor friends dreadfully dull.
There may be a pretense Of liking them at
the start, but that forced enthusiasm oozes
out and the wives greet the visitors with
cold handshakes. When a woman seems as
bored as that, even young husband real
lies 1t will be kindness to his old chums
not to ask them around any more. Perhaps
in his heart he knows they are dull, too,
and that's what drove him into matri-
mony."

REST CURE WITH LUXURY
Nervous Prostitution Resulting from
Strenuous Social Life Chief
Ailment Treated.

For the time being appendicitis can't
hold a candle to nervous prostration-that
is among fashionable women. Both in
the number and the variety Of cases the
latter leads.
The spring OF the year is nervous pros
tration's banner season. At that time spe-
cialists in nervous disorders come out
ahead of the surgeons and there is no in
dloation that in this respect the spring of
1901 Is backward. The number of nervous
prostration cases, the medical men say, is
now above the average, although there is
no increase in the number of serious
cases.
This will explain the recent multiplication
of private sanitariums 1t has come to
pass that the private sanitsrium is almost
as Indispensable a feature of fashionable
| life as the automobile or the steam yacht.
The old-time sanitarium was a hospital
under another name. The new-style sani-
tarium is something quite different.
Once upon a time for woman to go to
sanitarium generated the suspicion that
her health was In very precarious condi-
ton, that she was in a state of mental
or physical collapse, or that she was at
loggerheads with her family. Relatives of
| patients sent to a sanitarium were inclined
to keep the fact secret and friends deli
| Cateiy reIralnod from asking ieAulnB QueS-
tions and discussed the case behind closed
doors.
The choice OF sanitariums then was very
limited and the very best of them was a
more or less cheerless place not calculated
to appeal to any but a person too I'll to care
much for anything save a comfortable bed
But the up-to-date variety, which is a
logical sequence. a physician explained, OF
the strenuous social life, is a far cry from
a hospital.
Patients seeking admittance to a sani-
tarium Of this description make no attempt
at secrecy. They would just as soon have
the fact advertised as not
One of the luxuries Of the rich, these
places have popped up in one and another
beautiful country spot, and they represent
different grades of cost and exclusiveness

luxuriously as the country home Of person
Of ample fortune seldom more than six or
eight persons are accommodated at one
time for the reason that the rooms are
large and that each patient usually requires
a suite for her or his own use and quarters

patient who was to remain six weeks
brought along not only lady's maid but
turnout and coachman for her sole use
The new style sanitarium. a physician
admitted. was not primarily designed to
reach patients CRITICALLY III. although criti-
Fcally III patients are often admitted to one
and another of them. Il is the outcome Of
an appreciation on the part OF nurses and
doctors here and there who have come
much into contact with the fashionable
woman that she was in need of a retreat
which retained only some OF the disciplinary
features of the ordinary sanitarium, a re-
treat where no two patients would be, or
rather need to be, treated in precisely the
same fashion, where rules appertaining to
diet, exercise. amuse1nents and so on, could
be altered to suit individual taste. pro-
vided the alterations did not interfere with
the patients Improvement
The old type OF sanitarium represents
uniformity, system and strict adherence to
rule and the appointments, while hygienic,
are neither artistic nor elegant. This II

women with long pocketbooks, nervously
ailng, but not seriously lila class yearly
| growing more numerous.
What was TO be done? Why, build new
! style sanitariums OF course.
J At large expense, and With some misgiv-
! ings, the new plan was tried. The misgiv-
/ ings soon vanished. The up-to-date sani-
: tariums are never advertised. The rank
and file don't know where they are or that
/ they exist even.
Nevertheless, none is run at a loss or
talks of shutting its doors, for the custom
of retiring for a few weeks In the spring
to a sanitarium is getting to be almost as
popular as was the custom Of going into
retreat for one week in Lent a few years
ago. Said a doctor, with a twinkle in his
eye:
THE only thing to prevent the sanltariun
habit from reaching the proportions of q
fad is the fact that the hard hearted man
ayers of those institutions draw the line
at pet dogs. No matter how wealthy oil
distinguished a patient may be, she mus
leave her dog at home"

FLORENCE GETS CUT RATE
People to the North Are Given Five
Cent Fare by street
Railway.

At the directors meeting Of the Omaha

Tuesday morning it was decided TO give
a scent fare to Florence. This was asked
by a committee appointed at a mass meet
ing at Florence last week, although de-
mands were made at the same time for
through cars. The company decided It was
entirely impra cticable TO run through cars
After we had decided to put In the scent

railway company. I'VE found that during
the month OF March the car to Florence
made eighty trips without a passen-
ger and the car TO the cemetery made
eighty-six trips without a passenger. II
we had discovered this loss before we
might have hesitated about lowering the

REVENUE In SHERIFFS OFFICE
Figures Show Feeding Prisoners Has Been
Profitable cource of Income.
GOVERNMENT SMELLS IT CONSIDERABLY
Sarpy County Pays Into the CORer
About Thousand Dollars for
Prisoners Kept in Doug
las Jail.

During the year 1906 Sheriff Mcdonald
received from Sarpy county and the United
States government S2,5s5.s5 for the care OF
prisoners in the Douglas county jail.
This information ia contained in a report
just filed with the county board by County
Auditor Smith, made up from the sarpy
county and government records. The fig-
ures were compiled by Deputy Auditor
Fanferlik covering the last three years.
The report was in compliance with a reso-
luton OF the board passed last fall.
Owing to the overcrowded condition OF
the jail the commissioners have been con-
sidering the advisability Of refusing to
take prisoners from other counties OF from
the government. The figures show the
feeding Of these prisoners has been the
source of considerable revenue for several
years. In 1904 sheriff Power received 81 ,ge
from Sarpy county and In 1905 S427 from
sarpy county and t2.5lsB from the gov
ornment. Sheriff Mcdonald last year re-
ceived 1887 from sarpy county and 81 SOS s.
from the government

prisoners the average per day and the
