At the last session of the legislature a clause was Incorporated as a part of the revenue law whloh la giving the county treasurers throughout the state some food for reflection. Just now County Treasurer Fink among the number. It was to the effect. In brief, that all personal taxes for the year 1903 become delinquent on the first day of December and are thereupon harged to the county treasurer In whose county they accrue, and If not paid by the first of next February the treasurer may make himself whole by levying upon the property of the delinquent and selling the same to meet, not only the personal taxes due for last, but all previous years that nre unpaid. In case there Is no prop erty to levy upon the treasurer Is released from the liability for these taxes by show ing that lt and that he has at least made an effort (o get a settlement. This law now Is acting as a decided leaven with the officials In question and to expedite matters somewhat, Mr. Fink has Issued a manifesto In which he sets forth the fact. The Fidelity and Desposlt com pany of Maryland, which has furnished the bonds of large number of the county treasurers in this state, -himself among the number, has addressed a circular letter to those treasurers tit which It says: Prodding; the Treasurers.

Eustls, passenger traffic manager of ths Burlington, who was In the city yester day, going east from Colorado, where he has been staying during ths past six months for the recovery of his health, has a scheme for malting all his employes strong men who will be able to withstand severe attacks of sickness. It Is bis plan to require each of his employes to devote a certain amount of time each day to gymnasium work, with the view of keeping a strong and healthy body. Mr. Eustls says that if he had not been In the habit of taking dally exercise dur ing a number of years of sedentary employ ment, he would never have pulled through his recent attack of pneumonia. As It was. It catr.e very near laying him low, and It required six mouths for his com plete recovery.

The party was here but one weelfr and in that lime there were 150 applications for enlistment and sixty of the applicants accepted. The prospect of there being some activity In naval circles as a consequence of the Japanese-Russian war has been the prin cipal stimulus to enlistments. A number of applicants were old men who had passed the enlistment age. One old German put in an appearance at the recruiting depot this morniiig who gave his nge ns 60, and he wanted to enlist as a dishwasher. The recruiting party will leave here this afternoon for Sioux Falls, 8. D., where It will remain a week. Lieutenant Pettlnglll, U. 8.

While going en an errand for his mother about 8:30 a. . m. yesterday, 6-year-old Clyde Chandler, living at 1818H St. Mary's avenue, fell down the areaway at the cor ner of Boyd's theater and sustained serious Injuries. The boy was on his way to Bennett's store and was accompanied by two 8-year-old companions, his brother and Robert Evans. The three stopped on their way to play at the theater corner and in some ac cidental manner the younger Chandler boy slipped through the Iron railing and fell to the bottom of the areaway, a distance of about fourteen feet. The Injured boy was removed to his home In the police ambu lance and his injuries temporarily attended by the police surgeon. The boy's right leg was broken between the knee and the hip. several body bruises were sustained and It la thought that In ternal Injuries may result. BOY WILL STAY IN THE NAVY Son of Representative Deles Dernier Falls to Itesra Beleaso from Vnele Sam. Judge Mungwr yesterday vacated the writ of habeas corpus In the case of Chester Deles Dernier and remanded him back to the custody of the sheriff of Cass county. Young Dernier enlisted in the navy in Seattle last fall, and after serving a month left the service and returned to his home In Cass county. He was arrested on a charge of desertion and his parents pe tloned for a writ of habeas corpus on the ground that Chester was a minor when he enlisted, and was still a minor, and that his enlistment had been brought about by the persuasive Influences of the recruiting sergeant and that the enlistment was fraudulent and unlawful. Young Deles Dernier Is a son of State Representative Deles Dernier. R STAURANT MEN IN COURT Thirteen Employes of Ant'ers 8oe Union Thirteen Times for Wagei.

Captain Henry K. Palmer, the new post master of Omaha, will assume possession of the postofnee Monday morning, succeed ing Postmaster Joseph Crow, who has held the office sines 1898. There will be practically no change In the personnel of the poatofftce force, as with the exception of the assistant postmaster they hold their positions through the civil service tenure. Captain Palmer already has announced the reappointment of J. A. Woodard as assistant postmaster to the position that he has filled for ths last quar ter of a century. 4 At the time of the waiters' strike in this city last year the Idea was conceived and put Into execution by the union of estab lishing a restaurant to be owned and con trolled by the union, the profits and pro ceeds of which were to be used for the dissemination of union ideas and principles. This worked all right, all except the profits and proceeds part, and thereby hangs a tale in fact, several tales. The restaurant, which was known as "The Antlers," at 1322 Douglas street, did not pay, and after a few months' existence was turned over to the butcher, the baker and one or two others who had furnished the wherewithal to feed the hungry people who had found their way within Its gates. Thirteen persons were employed an un lucky thirteen, they think now and all the way from the autocratic cook down to the meek and lowly dishwasher, each claims money due for services rendered. The re sult of the suspension of business and the failure to effect a settlement has been thirteen law suits, In which the sums claimed vary from $106 down to $5.76. These suits were brought In Judge Altstadt's court against the main union. This Is com posed of the waiters, bartenders and two other minor branches, and was to have had the profits of the restaurant, provided there had been any. Claims All Were Partners. The defendant union claimed the thir teen employes were partners in the restaurant enterprise and that as such they must take their medicine with the rest and had practically no cause of ac tion. But Judge Altstadt could not see It that way and rendered a Judgment for W. A. McCartney, cook, and . Elmer Smith, waiter, to recover the full amount of the sums claimed, line and i2 respectively. Then the defendant took a change of venue to Judge Bachmann's court, and there the cases of Thomas Kern and Rod ney Stevens, each of whom claimed $29.60 due him, were tried. The result was again a Judgment for the plaintiffs to recover the sums claimed. Then the defendant's coun sel announced that the nine remaining cases would be tried by Jury. The next one, that of John, H. Kersten, carver, who claims $65.45, is set for next Wednesday, and the result will be watched with much In terest by the union element throughout the city. L. J.
