Rooms of the Omaha
Automobile Club

The official Lincoln highway car will
arrive here July 10 for the purpose OF
taking feature flashes" for the Lincoln
highway moving picture film which will
be exhibited all over the country. This

At Fort Wayne. Ind, a town of Just
half the size OF Omaha, decorated auto
mobile parade OF So cars was held in
honor of Consul-at-Large Osterman on
the day OF his arrival At Pittsburgh,
South Bend and all towns through Ohio,
Indiana and Pennsylvania the day OF the
arrival OF the official car was made a
sort Of holiday.
The Omaha Automobile club appeals TO
the booster spirit OF all business houses
and respectfully asks that they display
red, white and blue bunting and flags on
July 10 In honor OF the occasion and as
an appreciation OF tho fact that this city
is on this remarkable overland trail.
A. p. Simpson OF Kansas called at the
Omaha Automobile club rooms and stated
that Nebraska roads are carrying five
times the amount of overland traffic that
goes through Kansas. This information
coming from a native Kansan should set
tie the question as to which overland trail
is preferred by the average overland
tourist
The official Lincoln highway car is
decorated in red, white and blue. the IAn-
coin highway colors. An expert motion
picture photographer accompanies Mr..
osterman, and 1000 feet OF moving pic
ture film will be Flashed" along the line.
The trip from New York to San Fran
cisco will take three months. The party
includes Mr.. osterman in the official car
and he is accompanied by two other cars.

MAYOR VETOES
WOOD BLOCK
ON CENTRAL AVE.

Mayor Raymond today vetoed the
orders of the Board of Works for
wood block pavement in Central ave-
nue.. between Broad and Plane
streets. and in Orange street, be-
tween First and North Fourteenth
streets. The contract for the latter
Job has been let to John Greiger.
The reason for the vetoes was the
specification requiring that the wood
block used should be impregnated
with oil of specific gravity not less
than LOT, the mayor holding that a
lighter oil, of specific gravity between
1.OS and LOT, would be better as a
pavement and also would permit
broader competition among bidders.
THE veto says that in wood block
where the heavier oil is used the
seeping of tar to the surface of the
street makes necessary a coating or
sand Immediately after the pavement
is laid and frequently from time to
thereby involving adj
ditional expense 10 the city as well
as being source of great practical
ANNOYANCE to citizens"
Blocks inpregnated with the lighter
oil. he says, have been used in many
other cities and have been found to
be quite as durable as well as cheaper
than blocks impregnatod with heavier
aik.

HOT TALK IN
tilt AT MEETING
OF FIRE BOARD
Capt. Fisher Declares Member
of His Company Told a
FaIsehood.
ACCUSED MAN LOSES TWO
DAYS OFF FOR GUILT
Award of Hose and Coal Con-
tracts Are Laid Over by
Commissioners.

A lively tilt between Fire Captain
William j. Fisher OF Engine Com
pany No. 1, and Fireman Joseph
Spiro took place at the meeting of
the Board of Fire Commissioners yes
terday afternoon at Spiros trial on
charges of ,absenting himself from
duty without leave. Spiro, according
to Captain Fisher, left the firehouse
at 1902 o'clock on the night OF March
30 and did not return until 2:15
o'clock on the following morning.
During the testimony Captain
Fisher charged Spiro with lying to
the commissioners. SpIro at first
entered plea of not guilty to the
charges. The fireman declared that
the day in question was a Jewish
holiday and that Captain Fisher had
given him permission to take addi-
tional time off, saying, "go as far as
you like"
Captain Fisher Immediately took
exception to this statement, branding
it as a lie and declaring that he would
not stand for Spiro's making such a
statement before the board of the
discipline maintained in the engine
house. A captain, he said, cannot
grant "go as far you like" leave of
absence.
Spiro then pleaded that he had OBJ
served a Jewish fast day on the day
in question and that he had had
nothing to eat during the day. His
clothes had become water-soaked dur
ing a fire that day, he said, and he
was greatly exhausted at night and
feared sickness. He had taken bath
when he went home, he said, and had
then lain down for a while.
At one time during the proceedings
Spiro asked Department Surgeon
Hart if it wasn't true that he, Spiro,
was subject to grip.
mo- DR.. Hart tersely replied.
In answer to q question by Conn
missioner Ashley, Spiro admitted that
he had been away from the firehouse
during the hours charged by Captain
Fisher. He then changed his plea
to guilty, giving illness as an excuse.
The commissioners voted to deprive
Spiro OF his nextstwo days off.

While Serving Time at
Caldwell.

Kenneth Douglas, the former
church editor of the Newark Evening
News, has just been released from
the Caldwell penitentiary, after serv-
ing five months of a six months sem
tence for check swindling.
He disappeared from Newark last
year, deserting his wife, but was later
caught in New England and brought
back to Newark.
Douglas did not take part in many
of the religious services at the Cald-
well institution, despite the fact that
he was greatly interested In church
work while employed on the News.
One of Douglass occupations in
prison was at teaching. He was an
instructor in the school at the Cald-
well prison.
When leaving the prison Douglas,
who got q month of for good be-
havior," told Warden Ferdinand Hosp
that If he returned to Newark he
would be glad to assist Mr.. Hosp In
building up the prison school. Mr..
Hosp hopes to have soon night
school, as well as a day school for
the benefit of the prisoners.
Douglas wrote book while in the
county Jail and at Caldwell. He hopes
to soon have 1t published. The book
win deal with economic conditions in
the local institutions. Douglas. while
engaged as church editor Of the Eve
ming News, was one Of the leaders of
q local movement that had for it's OBJ
ject the placing before the public rev.
elations of alleged immoral conditions
in Newark. The expected revelations
did not materialize.
Douglas is now in New York, it is
said.

MUCH SECRECY
IN AWARD Of
PUBLIC WORK
Parental School Trustees Re-
fuse to Have Reporters
at Session.

Executive sessions have become the
habit with trustees of the Essex
County Parental School, who will
have the authority to spend $4,000 OF
the peoples money. Information that
reaches the public must first be
weighed and considered by the trus-
tees, and then allowed to trickle out
to the reporters.
Today, when a reporter of the Eve
ming Star walked into the chambers
Of Judge Martin, of the Court of Com
mon Pleas, he was unceremoniously
hustled out by a court attendant, who
asked him ratherly roughly what he
was doing.
Although taken by surprise at the
manner of his reception, the chair
man, Lathrop Anderson, having pre-
viously stated that there was no in
tention of keeping information re-
garding the school from the public.
the reporter had no recourse but to
retire, although he did SO under pro-
test.
When the reporter informed Clerk
of the Court Tench that he had I'M
derstood the meeting was to be pub
lie, and that bids for the erection of
the school building were to be given
out, Mr.. Tench said he would ask Mr..
Anderson If the reporter might be ad-
mitted.
Permission was refused. and the re-
porter was obliged to wait. Subse-
uuently, when the meeting was all
over. Mr. Anderson was asked
whether or not the matters under
discussion were public or private and
whether he intended to allow news
paper men to be present.
"Well," was his reply, you see
was to be reelected president, and 1
was too modest to wish the reporters
present"
Efforts were made to get little
further information, and this was
drawn from Mr.. Anderson in small
fragments. He seemed to be IN
hurry, however, and said that ne
wanted to get away to dine with
Judge Martin.
The Judge, by the way, is a member
Of the committee, as are Judges Os.
borne and Dolan.
The trustees of the school decided
to readvertise for bids for the school
building. The step Is regarded as
necessary because only $4,000 is at
the boards disposal, while the site
cost them $1S,000 and the lowest BID
on the school was $56,5O0. This totals
$74, ,Sg0-
The trustees have decided they
must dispense with certain features
they had been anxious to incorporate
In the school. One was hospital on
the roof. When the trustees have re-
vised the school plans they VIII re-
advertise for bids.

MONIES, ACQUITTED,
IS REARRESTED
Freed of Charge of Conspiracy.
Rearrested on New
Count.

Just before jury iii the Court u
Oyer and Terminer today announced
that it found Charles A. Nones not
guilty ON an indictment for con-
spiracy to defraud the RoseszllA
Trust Company, Nones was arrest4d
on another charge of the same nature
and held under $1,000 bail to await the
action OF the grand jury. Three days
more and the new charge would have
been barred by the statute of linita-
tions, and Nones would have been
free.
Alfred J. Hargan, the prosecutors
detective, who has worked up the
Roseville Trust cases, discovered the
evidence upon which the new charge
is based while preparing for the trial
of Nones on the original Indictment
He was going over the books of the
company and found, it is said. an al
legged overdraft of $3.50. In Nones's
account, on April %, 1913. The COM
plant was made yesterday afternoop
before Justice of the Peace Francis ".
Smith, court attache, who issued 4
warrant.
After the Nones trial had concluded
today and the jury had retired, Nones
was taken into custody az he left the
court room with his counsel. He
waived examination and was he1t
for the grand jury. A half
hour later the jury brought in its yer
dict of not guilty.
The turn OF affairs prevented Nonse
from having the distinction Of being
the first of those indicted in connec-
ton with the wreck of the Roseviils z
Trust Company to be cleared.
