South Omaha News
While the city council met at neon yts
tcrday It did not pass tho $50,000 refunding
bond ordinance as per schedule for tho rea
son that whllo the document was in tho
hands of the Judiciary committee a clerical
error wus discovered. Tho error was a
trivial one, but had It not been discovered
when It was there would have been consld
trablo delay In tho delivery of tho bonds.
As soon bb tho mistake was noticed an
other ordinance similar to the first with only
one or two corrections was drafted and at
yesterday's mccttag this ordlnuuce was In
troduced, while the former wns laid on the
shelf.
This error put the ordinance back qne day
only, as tho council will meet again, tomor
row nnd pass It through the second and
third reading-!.
The hasto In tho matter Is for the pur
poso of saving the city Interest. Tho out
standing bond which the now Issue- Is to
redeem still draw ii per cent Interest, while
the proposed Issue draws only I ',5 per cent,
This reduction In Interest of ii per cent
will save, tho city $7S0 a year, or $7,500" tor
,the ten years which the bonds will run.
If tho ordlnanco goes through today, as Is
expected, tho histories will bo completed
nnd turned over to (1. W. Hoobler, the pur
chaser, on Saturday. The, sale will then be
virtually completed.
A premium of $313 has been offered the
rity for thesa bonds by Mr. Hoobler and
this will pay for tho lithographing of tho
bonds, tho preparation of the histories and
nil othor expenses. Tho-clty. will not be to
any expense, whatever In taking up tho old
bonds nud Issuing new ones ori 'account of
(he premium.
When Councilman Johnston first' sug
tfsted that thU Issue bo placed on the' mar
ket at 414 per cent other members of the
;ounell thought that h" salo could not be
effected. Hut It wnn and consequently
Johnston Is jubilant over tho fact. In af
fairs of this kind his Judgment Is consid
ered first class, Now when the next Usuo
of general Indebtedness bonds comes along,
which Is not far distant, Johnston proposes
to put twenty-year 4 per cent bonds on the
market. Ho says that he Is confident that
a sale at this figure can bo made. It this
can be dono the saving In Interest to tho
slty will bo enprmous. ns In past years one
third of tho entire levy has been used to
pay Interest ou outstanding obligations.

In' a report submitted to tho Hoard of
Education Superintendent Cordon of tho
city schools has tho following to say con
cerning teachers' salaries:
"The teachers' salaries arc recognized
as being too low and It is extremely de
sirable that this condition of things be
remedied If possible. Whllo wo aru con
stantly endeavoring to raise the stand-
rd of teaching and of professional qualifi
cations wu have not made n corresponding
Increase In remuneration. Wo all recog
nize the dlfllcuty under which tho Hoard
f Education Is Inborlng with reference to
Income. The teachers havo recognized this
nd with n commendable, spirit have ac
cepted the situation ns It Is; nevertheless
tho maintenance of efficiency In school work
requires that teachers shall receive a
proper compensation for their labors. 1
would, therefore, urge upon the bonrd a
careful consideration of the question of
salaries with a view to making such In-
reasc as tho funds at your disposal will
allow.''
In conclusion Superintendent Gordon
thanked tho board for co-operation ami
nsslstancei and expressed his gratitude for
the cordiality with which the Hoard ot
Education worked for the interest of the
schools.

A big brief wns filed today on behalf ot
the taxpayers who are questioning In su
preme court tho legality of the act which
made M. I. Altken tax commissioner for
the city of Lincoln.
Tho chief points brought forward are:
"That tho net. so far as It attempts to
prescrlbo the powers nnd ilellno the du
ties of the tax commissioner and his dep
uties, Is void for uncertainty.
"Thot this net U null of force nnd void
ot effect because It vlolntcs tho prlncl
plea of equality and uniformity In taxation
required by tho constitution.
"The act under which the defendant
seeks to Justify Is void because It Is spe
cial legislation prohibited by the conBtltu
tlon
Thai the act Is violative of section 11
article III, of the constitution. In that It Is
not complete In itself and amends other
sections without referring to them."

NEW YORK. June 6.--Discussing rumors
concerning tho control of tho Wisconsin
Coilrnl, which hnu been In circulation
here for several daya, the Commercial Ad
vertiser says: Information relative to the
ftituro of the Wisconsin Central railroad
Is of a varied and Indefinite character, but
there" Is good reason to believe that nego
tiations affccllng tho control of that prop
erty aro under way. According to advlcre
from St. Paul, James .1. Hill has been pur
chasing Wisconsin Cenual stock, with tbo
low of putting the property under the con
trol of the Orent Northern or the Northern
'aclflc.
Another story Is In rlrcul-'tlon that either
he Harrlmnu syndicate or tho (loulds will
buy the Wisconsin Central to eliminate a
disturbing factor In tho western nnd south
western rate situation. At the New York
headquarters of the Wisconsin Central the
statement wns nmdu that no change had oc
clirred In tho control of that property.

This Is the story of how the dnlnty foot
of n dainty bride-to-be talked at the en

the nfoVoHuM balking caused Judge Vinson.
baler and -Harry Morrill, marriage license
clerk, to .miss their noon-day lunr,heou.
A couple enmo from ElKhorn to got a
marriage Remise. Clerk Morrill Issued
the license and was lnforrred by tho young
man that he wanted Judge Vlnsonhaler to
Kolcmulzc the ceremony. It wan almost 1
o'clock.
"But wait-n minute," stammered tho
prospective bridegroom, ns ho reached
forth the money In payment for the it
cense, "my wife that Is, my wife to be
she hus her-"wedding clothes In a valise
1 and wn want to know If you have a dress

I the togs she's, got on arc good enough, but
, sho says no, nnd, to tell you tho truth, tho
things sheV got In tho vnllso nre a might)

1 assured the 'bride that ihe might two hs
J .private, ofilrc, ns a dressing room the
I -aforesaid p'rivato office Mug also the place
where marriage licenses are Issued
So tho Judge nnd the clerk, accompanied
by thu groom-to-bt- picked up n bunch ot
stogies that &' young benedict from South
Omaha-had JusUdrposlted on the desk, and
retired to the main court chamber to wall
ton tl'.c; brldo to shift tho scenes of-ialment.
Half an hour passed, and nil was still
within. Judge Vlnsonhaler wns beginning
to grow nervous, but he calmed himself
by pacing the lloor nnd humming some of
tho classic songs he learned down In Noda
way countr. Missouri, when he usod to
go swimming In Wlldent creek. Harry
MorrJl! remarked that tempus was fugltlnn
nt a rapid pace. The groom explained that
the toilet would certainly be completed In
a short while, and added:
"She's hurrying n. fast as she can. You
don't know what nil she's got to nist on
or you wouldn't expect her to get dressed
so soon."
Judge Vlnsonhaler observed by gun metal
tlmo that It was three-quarters of an hour
slnco his prlvnto otllce had been converted
Into an Impromptu dressing room, and still
no signs of. the Elkhorn girl's toilet belnv
completed.
Then tho Judge said something clso that
ho learned in Missouri. It wasn't, music.
He might, havo said more, but ,at a
critical moment 0iere came another younit
mnn and woman wanting n license. They
hnd to wait, becauso the license blanks
were In tfyc temporary dressing room.
They didn't like to wait and said they
believed they would save time by going to
Council. Iiruffs.
"Knock on the door, Harry," suggested
the Judge.
"Nope, not me," said Morrill.
"You knock," be added In a sccona
breath. A
"I never was a knocker," retorted tho
Judge.
Then (hq .groom knocked.
, "Whp's thero?" came from within, and
jio voice, was meek and silvery.
"Ale," replied, the gallant man from Elk
horn. . . , . .
"Yo.u can't come In here." answered thb
young wo;na.n.
Tho ue.w arrivals for lUense laughed.
Ten minutes later, the door opened and
the brido paid she was ready.
"It wns,llku this," she explained, as sh
