Lambert Explains
Rights Of the City
Under the Contract

Corporation Counsel Lambert has
received number of inquiries relative
to sections of the hve-year street
lighting contract which refer to the
status of the city's lighting fund, if
the contract should be sustained; also
the rights of the city to acquire the
present plant during the life of the
contract.
81 have been asked whether, if the
contract should be sustained, money
now expended for gas street lighting
could be claimed under this contract.
| am told that statements have been
made at meetings that if the contract
goes into effect, the electric light COM
pany could claim all of the lighting
fund, including the gas street lighting
appropriation. According to specific
terms OF the contract, existing con-
tracts cannot be disturbed. The con-
tract could in no way affect the gas
street Lighting" Mr.. Lambert ex-
planned.
The corporation counsel made it
clear that should the city wish to &C
quire the plant. during the life of this
contract, the property which would
have to be acquired would be that
located within the city limits and not
outside of the city, as is being stated
by speakers representing R. B. How
ellis campaign against the contract.

MRS. Van NOSTRAND,
PIONEER, IS DEAD
Cultured Woman, Social Leader
and Early Settler Passes
Away at Home.
HERE NEARLY SIXTY YEARS

Mrs. ]. w. Van Nostrand, who
came to Omaha when il was small
town of mud and smaller houses"
died Wednesday morning at lilo
O'Clock in her home, ll0l South Thir-
tieth street. She was one of the real
pioneers, a woman whose strength of
character and mind made her lead
cr in the community. She was 50
years OF age.>
Mrs. Van Nostrand was native of
New York City, where she was born
May Is, 1888. She traces her ances-
try back to the time when Peter Stuy
vesant ruled the sturdy Dutch set
tiers of Gotham. Her parents, Mr..
and Mrs. William Stoutenborough.
had twelve children and she was the
seventh. Born in family OF refine
ment and wealth, Mrs. Van Nostrand
early had the inclination and means
to indulge a taste for literature, Edu-
Gated in two private schools, the
young girl soon became. mistress of a
fund of learning.
Married in East.

self, Miss Stoutenborough was mar
ried to The late James w. Van Nos
trand. She was then barely past p
years of age and her husband was
only year older. The young couple
remained in Brooklyn for two years
and then decided to migrate to the
west. 1t was on April 10, 1857, that
they landed in Omaha, which looked
then "like the picture of a frontier
hamlet in some old, old history" &C
cording to Mrs. Van Nostrand,
It>was not long before the happy
and able young fasteners won a
foremost place in the community.
Mrs, Van Nostrand was tireless
worker for church and charity. She
had the gift of conceiving clever
plans and the more practical art of
executing them successfully. 1t was
she who had the distinction of found
ing the first Sunday school in the
Episcopal church, in Omaha. This
was in 1858.
The calendar OF her private activi-
ties will never be known. Friends
say she was always about some work
of charity, Her public affiliations
are better known. She was for al
most quarter of century vice
president of the Creche. She was

FELL FROM LOFT;

How q Man Who Landed On Wood

Head to Food Found
Quick Relief. 5,

Once upon a time Edwin Putnam,
who lives in the quiet, pretty hamlet
of Wendell Depot, Mass. climbed up
into loft to get some building mate
rial, just as many another man living
in the country must often do. Sud-
denly he slipped and fell. Ten feet
below was a pile of wood, knotted
and gnarled. 1t was nasty tumble,
and Mr.. Putnam was injured pain
fully in the back, he was covered with
bruises, and was sore from head to
foot.
The next day he bought bottle
of Sloan's Liniment which had been
recommended to him. Within a very
few hours the soreness had vanished
and the lameness had disappeared.
He was an active man once more.
Sloan's Liniment can be obtained
ct all drug stores, 25c, soc and $1.0O.
