Willing to Give Marion $1,000
More. - y

Additional Donation Comes

Rather Embarrassing Condition Is
ell ieved Through the Kindnes
of Mr.. Carnegie.
TRUSTEES WEAR SMILE

The additional $4,000 necessary to
complete and 10 equip the new pub
lie library building will be donated by
ANDREW Carnegie, through the urgent
request of the board OF library trus-
tees which had the additional amount
been refused would have been In
very embarrassing position.
An original donation OF $4,000 was
made by Carnegie and 1t was at first
thought that amount would be suffi-
cient to complete the library building.
When the work was well under way
the old board found that with the
extras which had been ordered the
cost above the original amount would
be about $4,000. 1t was decided to
ask for the necessary amount. For
"a considerable time little success was
met with, When the new board
took hold of the reins of manage
ment, John II. Bartram, the secre-
tary was instructed to take up the
matter with Mr.. Carnegie. Finally
in response to most urgent plea for
the remaining amount, Mr.. Bartram
|received a letter last night, stating
that Marion will receive $4,000 more
than was originally promised, which
brings the amount Of the gift to $780,
1000.
The board receives an annual ap-
lpropriation of $4,000 from the city to
be used for the maintenance of the
library. AS the completion of the
structure has been delayed some
lwhat, there is now several thousand
dollars in the library treasury and it
was thought that this amount would
have to be applied on the construction
of the building. On investigation,
however, 1t developed that the board
could not legally turn this money
from one fund to another and the
completion of the library would have
to await such time as the city could
afford to appropriate the money.
The members OF the board are high
lly pleased with the news that the
lrequest has been granted and they
Twill now endeavor to have the work
rushed to completion. Unless the
work on the new building is rushed,
1t will not be read for occupancy un-
til the middle of April or possibl.' lat

IMPORTERS OF LACE ARE BUSY

Five Years.

In the lace importing trade the delivery
Of fall stocks of laces to the retailers and
the garment makers is keeping the ship
ping departments busy. The importations
from Switzerland have not shown as heavy
a decline as was expected. The American
women are constant purchasers of laces
and embroideries and they will be able this
fall 10 buy on a more reasonable price basis
than for any season since 1908. The fashion
Of wearing an embroidered shlrtwaist dur
ing the fall and winter is growing and 1t
makes the business OF the shirtwalst manu-
facturers an all-year-round one. instead of
a short summer season, as heretofore. The
women who buy their materials and make
their own waists can get cheaper materials
for fall that are just as fine in quality as

Taft Club VIII He
Formed. ST

The South Omaha market received about
$500 cattle yesterday. Among them was a
lair scattering of western rangers, which
Is TO be expected at this season. The prices
ranged a trifle lower for the day. This I'M
certainty is said to be one reason which il
keeping back the rangers. Omaha is the
best market in this respect, but prices shift
rapidly, with little warning even here. The
heavy run of the grass-fed cattle will be
on in about two weeks and the packers are
making preparations to handle them az
they arrive.
one reason ascribed for the slowness OF
shippers in sending in the rangers is that
the grass has been so fine that the cattle
have been held back to put on a little bet
ter flesh. The management of the Union
Stock Yards company give the assurance
that the Wyoming and Nebraska rangers,
as well as the Dakotas. were never better
than this year. The finest grass is abund-
ant everywhere.
The winter was a mild one on the ranges.
A few bad days were experienced in the
early spring.
