ADDITIONAL DUTIES OF PRECINCT ASSESSORS From Friday's Daily. .Now is the time for the assessor to collect an itemized statement from each real Nebraska taxpayer. Among the duties imposed on such of ficials in addition to statements of taxation, is that of gathering the data from each Civil and Spanish war sol dier and the gathering of agricultural and farm labor statistic?. Remember that upon the fidelity of the a e. so. to fully and completely gather and compile these statistics deper. - . . r x-i ! tb2 iair nairie oi -eura.-,K.a as an agri cultural state. If the assessor neg lects this duty, the products of the farm are a sweet morsel for speculat ors to gamble on, and they fix the amount of products to line their pockets at the farmers e:r-er ;e. If all assessors wouid realize that an actual truthful statement from them would do more to create a standard price for farm products than any other thing bearing on price .-ave pro duction, they would be very cartful to secure complete detail in every way possible. Mr. Assessor, will you try to do this for 1015? If it's anything in the lire cf paper, or office supply line, call at the Jour nal office, where most everything in the paper line can be found. Mrs. Kroebler Improving. From Saturday's Dally. Mrs. Andrew Kroehler, who is at the Immanuel hospital in Omaha recover ing from her recent operation, is re ported as getting- along in fine shape and her family, as well as the attend ing physicians, are hopeful that in a short time she will be able to return home. The operation has apparently been most successful and the lady's improved condition is certainly most pleasing to her host of friends in this city. DELIGHTFUL SOCIAL AT THE METHODIST CHURCH IN MYNARO LAST NIGHT From .Saturdays Pa II v. Last evening tne members of the congregation of the Methodist church at Mynard enjoyed a most delightful time at a sock social given at the church, and as a result of their efforts a neat little sum was netted for them that will be applied in the work of the organization. Each one was requested to place twice as many pennies as the size of the sock they wore, in the sock, and this was to provide the sock feat ure of the gathering. A very pleas ing program had been arranged for, which included solos, ducts and quar tets, all of which were very much en joyed, and the parties contributing to this part of the program were given hearty encores. A very pleasing read ing warn given by Mrs. Randall, wife of the pastor of the church, which was also gieatly enjoyed a?id proved a valuable audition to the program. Short talks along the line of Sunday rchool woik were given by W. T. Richardson, as wsll as C. C. Wescott and Jesse Perry, who were present from the church at Piattsmcuth. Grant Wetenkamp, superintendent of the Mynard Sunday school, ir, an invalid, but this iiJ not deter him from building up a splendid organization, and the entertainment last evening was most gratifying to every member cf the church and S jnday school. After thi program at the church the party v ere invited to the beautiful home cf Mr. and Mrs. Albert Wetenkamp, where most delicious and tempting re- freshments were served, which came as the closing feature of a mor.t de lightful evening and one fdled with the greatest cf pleasure to everyone pres ort. LOOISflLLE YOUNG m SENT TO THE DIFSO LIIK AT LINCOLN From Kriil ay's Dal'y. Yesterday afternoon the county board cf insanity held a short session to pass on the ca.:e of Raymond Theo dorski of Louisville, who was de sirous cf being sent to the stats dispo hospital for treatment. This is quite a sad case, as the patient is a young man in his early twenties and who had been a most estimable and genial gentleman until starting on the down ward path, and it is to be sincerely hoped that he will secure a cure of his affliction at the hospital and return to assume the place he should in the life 'J the community. The board, after hearing the evidence in the care, de cided to ycr.d him to the hospital, and he was taken there yesterday after noon.

A derided improvement over the ordinary musical comedy is "The Prince of Tonight," coming to the Pa i mole theater .Saturday night. Apr:l 21.

EAGLE REMAINS IN "WET" COLUMN, NOTWITHSMND I'i'G REPORT OTHERWISE From Saturday's T"an We note from the Eagle Deacon of this week the fact that the report on the election there resulting in a vic tory for the drys was without founda tion, and the information supplied to the Journal in regard to the election there was decidedly "phoney" and did not bear out the rtatcments made. The Beacon states that as far as known Eagle will remain decidedly wet dur ing the coming year, unless the mem bers of the board flop over on the question, as they are in favor of the maintenance of the. saloons at that place. The supposed facts as reported here came from sources that seemed most reliable, and for this reason it was taken that the parties giving them out knew what they were talk ing about. BIRDS STILL EFFECTIVE From Friday's Pal! jr. Many of the press comments on the decision of the United States district court, rendered March 20. at Topeka, Kansas, holding that the federal migratory bird law is unconstitutional, according to the United States de partment of agriculture, are erroneous and are apt to mislead the public con cerning the real situation in this matter. The Kansas decision to the same effect in the eastern district of Arkan sas, is limited in its operation solely to the district in which it was render ed. Neither decision settles or nul lifies the law, and the exact contrary has been held by the United States district court for South Dakota. The Arkansas case has been appealed to, rnd is now pending, in the United States supreme court. The act of con gress protecting migratory birds stands effective until the supreme court ccc.cte.s tr.e question ot its con stitutionality. In the meantime, it is incumbent on every law-abiding citizen io observe its provisions and the regu lations. It is the duty of the depart ment of agriculture to enforce this lav.- and the officials in charge will en ceavor to do so as long as it is in force. Reports of violations will be carefuliy investigated and when suf ficient evidence is secured they will be reported for prosecution. In this con nection it should not be forgotten thrt an offender against this, as in the case f other United States laws, is subject to prosecution any time within three years from committed. the date the offence is From Friday's Daily. Yesterday afternoon at the Wire Memorial hospital in Omaha Mr.-. Arthur Keffler was operated on in order to give her relief from an af fliction from which fhe has been suf fering for some time. The operation has apparently been successful, al though the patient is still very weak from the effects of the operation, and it will be a few days before she will be out of danger. Her mother, Mrs. J. II. Thrasher, of this city, is at the hospital with her. Mrs. L. II. Heil was operated on a few days ago at Immanuel hospital in Omaha for appendicitis and is re ported as doing very nicely and seems on the high way to recovery, and this will prove most pleasant news to her many friends throughout the Shower for Rride-to-Rc. From Friday's i;illv. Yesterday afternoon Mrs. A. C. Tulcne entertained most delightfully r.t her home in the west part of the city in honor of her sister, Miss Eilcn Roetel, whose marriage to Mr. Frank Shavel is to occur soon. The affair was in the nature of a miscellaneous shower and the bride-to-be was show ered with a great many very handsome and choice remembrances of the oc casion that will be most useful to her in her new home. At a suitable hour a most delicious luncheon was served, which added greatly to the pleasure of the ocasion, and the guests in de parting wished Miss Ellen many years of happiness in her wedded life.

About 3:30 a. m. word came to town that unlucky No. 7 had met with another accident, which proved to be about as follows: At the head of Cedar Island, on the banks of the Platte, the heavy rain had cp.used a washout which carried a portion of the track into the river; the train came along and a flash of lightn- ir.g revealed the state of affairs; the engineer whistled down brakes, re- versed his engine, jumped and came out all right; no one on the train was hurt, but a car of horses was thrown from the track, down the bank, and out of the nineteen in the car but nine escaped.
