Provisions,

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.
As you know, personal taxes for the year
1S03 became delinquent December 1 and If

"I am a poor man, but have often said I

WORK IN GYM PART OF DAY
Physical Exercise, Mr. Eastls Says,
Will Be Exacted of All
BnrllDgtou Employes.
P. 8. 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. Mr. Eustls is said to be
a terror to the boxers of the Chicago
Athletic clubas It Is his dally custom to
get some of them Into the ring and give
them a good, sound pummellng. He de
sires to make his employes as "chesty" as
himself. '
"When I go back to work,'" said Mr,
Eustls', "I am going to do everything In
my power to stimulate Interest In gymnas
ium work, and I am going to see that
every man in my department has tbo
necessary time off to do his dally stunt.

The naval recruiting depot In this city
was discontinued yesterday. 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. N., in charge of the recruiting party,
said:
"Omaha la the third best recruiting point

CHILD BADLY HURT BY FALL
Little Fellow Plunges Down Stairs,
Breaks Leg; and Sustains
Other Injuries.
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.

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.

PALMER GOES IN ON MONDAY
Succeeds Crow as Postmaster and
Keeps Woodsrd and Rest
of Force.
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. Plattl appears for ths plaintiffs and
