The Board of County Supervisors nt Its
session jestPrday fl\ed the state and county
tax levy for 1S9S as follows State , 3 3 ,
county general , 4 , county poor , 1 , county
bridge , 3 , county road , 1 ; school , 1 , Insane
nt State hospital , 1 ; county Insane , 1 ; sol
diers' relief , 023 , bond Interest , 023 , total ,
158 mills. The levy this jear Is only
flfty-flvu onc-hundredths of a mill greater
than last jcar. although under the new
code the supervisors were compelled to make
a levy of one mill for the county Insane
at the State aslyuni at ciarlnda. But for
this It will be seen that the levy would have
been less. The levy for the poor fund has
been reduced from last ) car , as has the
lev > for the county Insane. Tbe tax levy
last > ear was the smallest that It had been
for .1 long number of jears , so the super
visors arc much pleased with the showing
made this jear. Until a few years ago the
annual levy reached between 1 ( ! and 17 mills.

of Mrs. Emma Anderson , a widow woman
living at 1201 Sixteenth avenue , died yester
day morning about 7 o'clock fioni morphine
taken with suicidal Intent. , Despondency
over the poverty of her mother caused the
child to thus end her young life. About
flvo jears ago the child , while playing with
some companions In the ralhoad jards , was
tun over b > a Hock Island train and as a
result her right limb bad to bo amputated.
The parent brought suit against the railroad
company but failed to recover damages , the
jury finding against them Since the death
of the father Mrs. Anderson has provided
for her family by taking In washing and
doing other work. Little Susie , who was
a most sensitive child , as she grew up set
her heart on securing an artificial lltnb to
replace the one she had amputated. Her
mother promised to buy her one and stinted
and saved eveiy cent she could to do so ,
The mother had done washing for several
families from whom she was unable to
secure her pay. Friday morning little Susie
went around to try to collect this monej ,
but was stood off with promises. The child
came homo very despondent and cried nearly
all the afternoon. She said she might as
well be dcad as she was only a source of
(
worry to others , but none of the family
had at that time the slightest suspicion
that the child contemplated taking her life.
Toward evening the little girl left the hou e
and was gone for over an hour and It Is
supposed It was at this time that she secured
the drug with which she ended her life.

DHS MOINCS , Sept. 10 ( Special Tcle-
gaim ) The lines of the Western Passenger
association entering DCH Molnes , which In
clude the Kock Island , the Northwestern nnd
the Burlington , as well as the Milwaukee
are tearing their hair over the action of
the Des Molnes Northern & . Western load In
putting in ollect a special rate of $2 50 to
Omaha , which Is away below the associa
tion's schedule. The train will be run fiom
Des Molnes to Omaha and return tomoirow ,
leaving this city at 7 o'clock , arriving In
Omaha nt 12 30 o'clock and leaving Omaha
on the return trip at 7 o'clock at night
The special will bo hauled over the Fonda
branch of the Des Molnes Northern & West
ern and over the main line of the Milwaukee
from Herndon west.
Demand has been made In DCS Molnes for
several months for a rate of $2 50 to Omaha
and It has been refused by all the associa
tion lines. Ono of the other lines had ac
cess to Omaha except over the association's
tracks , and It was thought Impossible to
cut the rate below the faro aprcc-d upon
by the minions of Chairman Caldvvell. It
was but a short tltno ago that the best
faro from Des Molnes to Omaha was $150.
but gradually the rate has dropped until
yesterday to the Woodmen convention , when
tickets were sold for $3 CO The Des Molnes
Northern & Western arranged a few dajs
ago with the Milwaukee , of which It Is a
feeder , to tun a special train from lleindon
to Omaha , carding Its tars and betuiIng
pajment on the per mile basis. The object
of tbo bpeclal did not enter Into the nego
tiations and the Milwaukee concluded the
arrangement. The train will be run ovir
the tiacks of the Milwaukee , an association
line , but that line Is entirely out of the
slash In rates and If a question arises It will
certainly say BO to the association. An im
mense crowd will go on the excursion.
Governor Shaw Is expected homo from
Washington In a day or two Ne\t week
ho will visit Omaha and attend the currency
convention. Ho will probably make some
arrangements for Iowa day at the exposition
vvhilo there.
Today the last of the soldiers left Camp

roads. The Perry , Tort Dodge , Cherokee

slightly after noon on a special furnished

Musical circles have been greatl > stirred
up for the last few- clays over the sudden
disappearance ] of ono of the most prominent
musicians of this city , who has quietly
folded his tent and with his family and
worldly goods gouo to other bcenes , sup
posedly Canada , leaving several thousand
dollars in unpaid bills. Prof John Sinclair ,
director of the DCS Molnes Musical college ,
Is the man referred to and many Des Molnes
people would bo overjo > ed for the present
address of the crstwhllo director. It ap
pears that ho was in the habit of getting
credit wherever ho could and in too man >
cabes forgot to make the promised pajments
This fault , It seems , prompted his sudden
clepatturo from the city.
