MORE MONEYFOR A SHAVE
_
Lincoln llnrlicrw Arc ConnldcrliiK the
( tiirntlnii of nnlnlnu : Tlnslr
Scale of 1'rlccn.
LINCOLN , Dec. IB. ( Special. ) The bar-
here of Lincoln are considering the question
of raising tbo price of shaving from
10 to IB cents. A mooting wna held Wednes
day night , nt which more thnn three-fourths
of the shop owners of the city were pres
ent. But few were opposed to the proposed
changa and theywero men who had shops
In the poorer-locations. No definite fiction
was tnken"at the meeting. Another will'be
held Tuesday evening , at which time It Is
thought the now rate will bo adopted al-
tnoHt unanimously.
The 15-ccnt rate was charged by nil
the nrat-clasB shops of the city previous to
li > 94 , but owing to the stringency of the
times the price was cut. The argument
urged for the adoption of the Increased
rate nt the present tlmo le that the cost
of living haa materially Increased ; rent
hus gone up ; barbers' supplies cost more
than they have for several years , and there
is an additional cost of $1 attached
to the business for license since the lust
legislature. , ,0iher cities felt the same ef
fect of tho'hard times , but' the old prices
have been gradually rcatpred In most places.
Omaha barbcrc put the IG-cent rate Into
effect last Monday. The barbers of Hast
7 ings , Grand Island and Beatrice charge 5
cents extra for shaving the necks of their
customer * * .
Thov journeymen are all In favor of the
rates of prlceei They work on the scale
ot 60 per cent of what they receive for
their services each week.rhla makes the
li/como of the workmen In the beat shops
ot the city average from $15 to $23 n week ,
whllo thb o In the smaller shops receive
from $8 to $13. The Increase of 50
per cent on the ccet of each shave will
amount to considerable for the man workIng -
Ing on n' commission. The only shop owners
opposed to the move are these who are
not In the most prominent locations. It
has been pointed out to them that their
trade Is permanent ; they do not have to do-
ptnd on transient custom. If their patrons
cMinot go to some other first-class thop nnd
receive the samp work for Ices money they
surely will not leave these they have been
In the habit of patronizing.

CIVIL SERVICE MEN RESOLVE
IlcnlrOH of Hie LcnRiie Are Set Fortli
In u String of Keno-
lutloiix.
INDIANAPOLIS , Ind. , Dec. 15. At the
business session of the National Civil Service
league today all the old ofllcers were reelected -
elected and resolutions which read In pa t
as follows -were adopted :
"Tho league regards the order Issued by
the president on the 29th day of May last ,
withdrawing several thousand places from
the classified lists and revising the rules In
tending to evade evasions of the law , as the
first unmistakable backward step by a fcJ-
cral administration since the civil service
law was passed. The Injurious effects of
this order have already been seen In tha
demoralization ot many parts of tbo fed
eral Bervlco ; In the encouragement of the
enemies of reform In their efforts to crlpplo
the merit system and secure a further re
laxation of the rules , and In the widespread
distrust of the promises of the president
and the party In power to enforce and
extend the civil service law.
"Wo also regret that the president has
not yet fulfilled tbo assurances given by
him to n committee of the league of his In
tention to Include In the classified service
a much larger number of places than those
withdrawn , but on the contrary has In
cluded none whatever. We venture to hope
that euch extensions may yet be made at no
distant day.
"Wo ask congress to remove the legisla
tive restriction upon the consolidation ot
poBtofflces to the end that the departm nt
may apply the merit system to minor offices
wherever practicable by making them
branches of larger offices and filling them
from the clerical force therein ,
"Tho withdrawal of fourth-class post-
masterships from patronage would destrcy
the most formidable remaining bulwark of
the spoils system.
"The league rejoices In the substantial
progress made In civil service reform In
the state of New York by the pas-sing of
an effective reform law , and heartily ccrn-
mends Governor Roosevelt for his distin
guished public Service In aiding to restore
the merit system , which had been serloua'y
Impaired by his predecessor. The league ex
presses 1U satisfaction at the action of Gov
ernor Wolcott of Massachusetts In extending
the classified service and resisting the lu- j
etduous attempt made to cripple the merit j
system In that state. I
"We confidently rely upon public opinion
to effect the ultimate extension of the merit
system to all branches of our national , state
and municipal government. "

LINCOLN , Dec. lo. ( Special. ) Flro broke
out In the manufacturing department of tlio
otato penitentiary at noon today and de
stroyed property to the value of $35,000. The
major portion of the lorn Is borne by the
state and the balance by the Lee Broom and
Duster company of this city , which sustained
a loss of between $8,000 and $12,000. The *
total loss may be heavier , depending upon
whether or not the walls of tno manufactur
ing building are In condition to bo used
atnln , which Is doubtful. The fitale prop
erty destroyed was uninsured , but that of
the Leo Ilroom and Duster company was
covered by Insurance for about 75 per cunt
of its value.
The fire was discovered n few minutes
after 12 o'clock by one of the convicts on
duty In the boiler room. The penitentiary
fire apparatus was at once pressed Into serv
ice , but the flames had gained such hcml-
v.ay that It was of little use. The mate
rial In the building was of such Inflammable
nature that the flames spread rapidly , not
withstanding the united efforts of the peni
tentiary attaches and trusty convicta. An
alarm was turned In and the Lincoln llro
deportment responded with a. full set of
apparatus.
The fire Is supposed to have originated In
one of the rooms of the broom factory on
the first floor of the building. It la thought
a lighted lamp that had been left In this
room fell over during the absence of the
convicts , and that the burning oil spread
over n lot of brooms. Another theory ad
vanced Is that the fire originated In the laun
dry room , Immediately nbovo in the second
lloor. When first seen , however , the flames
were confined In the one room on the first
floor. After n hasty examination the author
ities of the penitentiary were unable to
place the blame on any convict or other
person connected with the Institution.
Steel ; DiiniriKcil.
Adjoining the fixing room of the bro m
factory , where the fire Is supposed to have
originated , was the store room on onr > side
and the engine room on the other side. A
portion cf the stock in the store room wao
saved , but it was all more or less damaged
by water. The section of the building oc
cupied by the engine , laundry , bath and
clothing rooms was completely destroyed.
The walls remain Intact , but may possibly
not be In condition for rebuilding.
Warden Hopkins was out of the city to
day and In his absence Deputy Warden
Welch directed the work of fighting the
flames. He estimated the damage to the
building and contents belonging to the state
at from $13,000 to $25,000. The heaviest loss
occurred In the engine roam , which Is now
ono mass of ruins. Several pieces of heavy
machinery from the laundry crashed through
the floor to the engine room soon after the
flro started which , together with the intense
heat , probably damaged the engines to a
considerable extent.
The building In which the fire occurred was
a largo stone structure , built about eight
years ago at a ccet of $12,000. A similar
fire occurred In It three years ago , but It was
rebuilt by the state. The major portion of
the first floor was occupied by the broom
factory and the balance by the engine and
holler rooms. Above were the laundryt tnllor
shop , clothing room , shoo shop , bath room
and the manufacturing rooms nf the broom
factory. The extreme south end cf the build
ing was not damaged , but otherwise It was
completely gutted.
Indiifllclcnt Water I'rcMNiirc.
Had there been sufficient water pressure
the flames might have been confined to the
one room on the second floor. The water
supply for the penitentiary comes from a
reservoir about 200 yards south of the buildIngs -
Ings , and a large pond had recently been
filled from It for making Ice. Consequently
there was scarcely any pressure until after
the engine of the Lincoln fire department
was brought Into use.
Occurring as it did during the neon hour ,
the flro caused but very little commotion In
the penitentiary. Nearly all the convicts
were In the cell house and nnly those of the
mcst trustworthy character were liberated
to assist In the work of fighting the flames.
The destruction of the building will throw
fifteen men employed as guards and over
seers out of employment for possibly two
weeks. Clinton R. Lee , president of the
broom concern , said this afternoon that the
destruction of his plant would not cripple
his business to any great extent. Temporary
quarters will be provided In another buildIng -
Ing and work will be begun again In a few
days. The shoe shop and laundry were
operated by the state and both will be given
a place In the other building. The machinery
and contents of these were valued at about
$2,000. In addition there are other losses of
minor Importance , such as the tailor shop
and the clothing room. The machinery In the
laundry room was valued at $1,000 ,
The manufacturing building was located
Infildo the jail yard and about thirty feet
from the cell he-use.
The building will probably be recon
structed as soon as the necessary arrange
ments can be made by the State Board of
Public Lands and Buildings. There Is no
available fund from which the expense of
putting up a nor/ building can bo paid , but
the hoard will probably adopt the plan fol
lowed In constructing the building three
years ago. The work will be performed by
convicts and the material necessary will
bo purchased on the credit of the state.

SAN FRANCISCO , Dec. 15. The Comedy
