Crime.
Forty-four years on earth and twenty
years of that time In stato penitentiaries
Is tho record of Harry King, now under
arrest at tho city Jail awaiting trial on a
chargo of larceny. This, too, without tak
ing Into account tho Innumerable sentences
ho has served In city nnd county Jails and
reformatory Institutions.
King began his career of crimo when
young nnd was u member of tho notorious
"Lake Shoro gang," operating out of Chi
cago, until It was broken up through the
killing of many of Its members by ofll
eers of tho law. Later he belonged to tho
"Northwestern gang," which was n bad
lot. King served two terms, one of two
and tho other of five years, In tho Lnnslng
(Mich.) penitentiary; three years In Liu
coin; two years in Jefferson City, Mo.;
five years in Fort Madison, In.; one year
In Jollet, III.; two years In Columbus. O.
Each sentenco was for burglnry, a crime
which has beifh King's specialty. While
King was doing his two years in tho Mis
sourl penitentiary Pat Crowe was also con
fined there.

King n few days ago whllo ho was trying
to dispose of tools which bad been stolen
from 1). J. Evans of 2449 South Seventeenth

gatherings of dignitaries of the Koraan
Catholic church ever brought togothcr west

tho Catholic university nt Washington,
which position ho held until 1897, when ho

thr bestowal of the pallium Is lost In the
traditions of tho church, but It Is found

The pallium lUelf Is n band of white
wool worn on the shoulders. It has two
strings of tho snmu material nnd four
purple crosses worked on It. It Is worn
by tho pope and by him presented to
patriarchs, primates and archbishops ns a

of their higher oMlce until they have re

they are required to demand It of the pope
within a few months nfter their appoint
ment, and to demand Its transmission with
tho most urgent haste, "Instnnter, Instan
tlus, Instnntlslme." reads tho canon.
Tho greatest care Is taken In regard to
tho wool from which these pallia aro mado.
Two lambs arc brought annually to tho

Tax Commissioner Fitzgerald figures that
ho cannot begin work until May 1, as he
must wait until ho receives copies of tho
county records and also wait until tho
bonds of his deputies aro npproved. With
tho work commencing on Mny 1 the com
missioner will have forty-fivo days In which
to complete tho records.
Tho board of review sits on July 1 nnd tho

visions of the new charter, sits for five
days at Jj per dlcm each, the members
being appointed by the mayor and council.
Kach deputy will receive ?3 a day for the
work nnd eight deputies havo already been
appointed. Considering that the deputes
work tho nlottel tlmo of forly-flve days b.3
cost for deputies nlono will be Jl.OSO,
while tho expense of the board of rovlew
will amount to nbout $100. Already $100
hns been spent for a copy of tho county roa
ords und with the tax commissioner's sal
nry nt $1,500 n year It can readily be seen
that a tax commissioner Is going to bo nn
expensive luxury. In addition to tho sums
mentioned the office rent of tho commis
sioner and tho books to bo used must be
added, so that with all duo caro the ex
penses this first year will coma very close
to $3,000.
It is expected, however, that the city
valuation will be Increased from $1,900,000
to nt least $2,ri00,000. Tho recent chango
in tho Hammond plant mny make Borne
slight difference In the assessment, but
not enough to speak of.

CATHOLICS PLAN HIGH SCHOOL
I'roi'crillnuN nt Iteeent CIiIciiko Coh
ferenee Arouxe ev
Intercut,
Omnha Is to have n Catholic high school
on the plan outlined by thu recent confer
enco of presidents of Catholic colleges In
Chicago, and It 1b probable that the school
will bo ready for work with tho opening
of tho school year In 1902.
Since thu Idea has been given publicity
through tho confcrcnco It develops thnt n
high school has been malutnlned In a quiet
way In one of tho South Omaha parishes
for some time under the direction of Fathor
Morlnrty. This school hus been confined to
tho children of the parish, as the room has
been limited, but It hns been doing good
work
Tho new school will bo Intended for tho
children of the combined parishes of Omaha.
It will probably be established by tho
Sisters of St Domlnlck of Slnslnlwn Mound,
who havo secured spnee for their school In
the parish of the Sacred Heart, under the
direction of Father Judge. The new build
ings will be constructed next year on n
lot south of tho church, nnd If present
plans arc carried out theso buildings will
provide for tho high school. Tho location Is
one which could hardly bo equalled In any
other place tn the matter of easy reach
from the street cars. Tho Park lino runs
within a block ot the buildings, tho Dodge
street line within four blocks nnd tho
South Omaha line within nbout five blocks
of the school. From theso lines nnd their
connections It Is posslblo to reach every
part ot tho city, and tho projectors of tho
plan believe that the new school will be
filled easily with pupils who desire to
take tho high school's course. This course
will conform In many respects to the same
course In tho public schools but will be
especially devised to articulnto with the
collegiate course of Crelghton college and
will be a feeder of that Institution.
The high if chool department will be ope
rated In a'dflitfon to the regular parochial
school which will bo conducted by the Sis
ters of St. Domlnlck In the parish of the
Sacred Heart.
MliielilN Content Case,
Richard Shields stated yesterday that he
had commenced contest proceedings In tho
recent tax commissioner election. Hn
holds that at tho time ot the nominations
there was no provision for a tax commis
sioner and consequently, as ho filed n peti
tion, ho Is the only candidate entitled to tho
placo. although ho received only 25.1 votes.
Ilonnett filed n petition nnd received over
800 votes nnd yet -was defeated by Fitzger
ald, who polled over 1,000 votes. Shields
admits thnt Bennett filed n petition, but he
contends that It was filed too late. The
fact that tho city clerk accepted Dcnnett'B
petition cud marked It filed at a certain
tlmo Is evidence that It will hold good in
court. Tho council has, however, recog
nized Fitzgerald as tax commissioner nnd
Shields may havo a hard tlmo getting him
out of thn job. Tho case Is called for hear

There was n secret meeting ot the employ
ing machinists of iho city yesterday after
noon, and ench member of tho body known
as the Omnha Association of Machinery
Manufacturers la pledged to reveal none of
the decisions of tho organization.
Tho meeting was held in tho Commercial
club rooms, and tho present strike of tlio
Machinists' union was considered. If tho
plans of tho employers arc carried out thero
will he waged In Omaha a battle between
two national societies. As soon as the
threats of a strike assumed dcflnlta form
tho oillcers of the local association of em
ployers opened up correspondence with offi
cers of tho Chicago association, the object
being to form a combination with tho local
associations of employers all over tho union
to deal with the labor Bltuatlon In a uniform
manner. At this tlmo no answer has been
received from the communication, and until
they know definitely regarding the possi
bility of their entrance Into the national as
sociation tho Omaha employers will take
no active mensures to settle tho strike.
lltfore they went Into consultation mem
bers of tho nssoclutlon said that tho pres
ent strike was causing them little troublo
03 thu shops wero running short handed on
account of lack of work anyway. They pro
fess to bo running as usual and to bc do
ing all of the work In the shops, but mem
bers of tho union eny that, with the excep
tion of L. C. Sharp's shop, all tho Job bhops
In tho city are practically shut down.
Asked whether there was any probability
of tho master's association Importing ma
chinists, ono ot tho mombers stated that
at this tlmo they did not Inteud to tako thlB
course, as they believed that their work
men would return to tho shops us soon ns
work Increased, nnd then thero would bo
ns many workmen In tho city ns could bo
provided with work under any condition
which Is likely to confront tho trado this
season.
"Wo are waiting," said one of the mem
bers, "to seo what the members of the
union are going to do. Ono of my employes
reported to mo this morning that many of
tho men now out on tho strike arc unxlouB
to return. They will stay out but a short
time, I believe, and I for ono do not want
to bring a number of msn to town to take
tho places of old men who will bo ready to
go to work in a short time."
