LINCOLN, May J8peclal.)-Craied with
Saalousy, Qeorge Harry, a former Lincoln
policeman, this afternoon shot and killed
Ma housekeeper,' Miss May Young, and then
hot and killed himself. The double trag
edy occurred shortly before 4 o'clock In
the Gern grocery atora at 213 South Ninth
Street and was witnessed only by the pro
prietor of the place, Q. F, Hodges.
The couple walked down Ninth street and
topped for a few momenta In the front
part of the store and began to talk, neither
hewing any signs of excitement. Hodges
at this time was working In the rear of
the store and upon completing his task
tarted to the front end to wait upon them.
Before he reached the couple, however,
Harry auddenly drew a revolver and with
out a word placed It against the face of
the woman and fired. AS her body tottered
(or a second and then fell to the floor,
Harry placed the still smoking revolver to
his left temple and again pulled the trig
ger. He fell face forward to the floor,
death resulting instantly. The woman,
upon striking the floor, attempted to rise,
crawled a short distance oa her knees and
thsa fell forward dead against a pile of
merchandise.
Almost Instantly the store was crowded
.with people and the police. The only rea

Last night about 11 o'clock a disastrous
fire occurred to the show train of Campbell
Bros., which had come In during the even
lng. Monday being their show date for
this city. While the keepers of the ani
mals were in the elephant car feeding the
animals for the night a gasoline torch
which they were using exploded and in
an instant the flames had spread over
the entire car. Three elephants, four
camels and several other animate were
cremated In the flame, nothing being
aaved from thla car. The estimated loss
is about 120.000. This waa the most ex
pensive car carried by the company, and
as this was their first stand of thla sea'
son outside of their home town, Falrbury,
the mishap cast a gloom over the entire
show, aa these were the only animals of
their kind belonging to the company.
The city Are department responded to
the alarm, but the Are had done Its work
before they had reached the acene. The
air waa filled with the odor of the burning
flesh of the unfortunate animals which
were tightly enclosed so that they had no
possible show of escape.
The large elephant, Venus, which was
man killer, had been with the show
ever since it started, as had also the
keeper. Nodi, who feels the loss perhaps
more than anyone else.
The University of Nebraska, on hearing
of the accident, asked the proprietors for
the skeletons of the animals, which waa
given to It.

LINCOLN, May 1 (Special.) With rep-
resentativea of the various railroads of
the atate present, the State Board of
Equalization met thla afternoon at 1:30
to begin its work of assessing railroad
property. When Governor Mickey men
tioned the matter of assessing the roails
as a unit or the various branches that go
to make up a system separately, the ques
tion was deferred without discussion, upon
motion of Auditor Weston. The railroad
representatives announced that they were
not yet ready to make arguments today
and asked that a day be aet apart for
their benefit. A week from next Wednes
day was agreed upon with the understand
ing that if all could not be heard at that
time, then they be given the liberty of
being heard from time to tirfie as the
board met. 8. L. Hlghleyman of the
Missouri Pacific will appear before the
board tomorrow, as it is Impossible for
him to remain longer in Lincoln at present.
Some of the toads failed to return the
value of the ties used and the value of
the eteel and Iron and the cost of grad
ing. Because of this Secretary Bennett
waa authorised by the board to secure
all the further Information that may be
required and he was empowered to em
ploy assistance In compiling the various
reports.
The speeches made today were merely
preliminary to what is to come, F. P.
Crandon of the Northwestern making the
only extended argument. He touched on
the franchise and argued against valuing
a road by the value of Its stocks and
bonds. The other railroad men here were
8. L. Hlghleyman of the Missouri Pacific,
A. W. Scrlbner of the Union Pacific, R.
D. Pollard of the Burlington, General Man
ager Bldwell and Tax Commissioner Whit
ney of the North Western, J. C. Cooper
of the Rock Island and Thomas Benton
for the Pullman company. This company
will be granted leave to come In later with
the other car companies to show why they
are being unduly taxed.
In asking for more time In which to
make his argument, Mr. Scrlbner of the
Union Pacific stated that It was the duty
of the board to asaeaa the property of the
railroads and not their ability to make
money. And that in doing this the board
could not take the capital stock as ' a
value. Mr. Scrlbner, however, did not go
Into the matter fully, but will at his next
Inning.

Mr. Crandon discussed franchises and the
"absurdity" of trying to arrive at the

poor piece of property. He laid emphasis
on the fact that the road had no terminals,
had to pay rent, that Its road needed re
building and that for ever and a day it
had been conducted at a loss to its own
ers and that no dividends had been de
clared, and that It was merely a local road
with r.o through traffic. '
Mr. Crandon held that a railroad fran
chlse was sn Indefinite term and was val
ueless. He then called attention to the
matter pt taking Into account the stocks
snd bonds of s company to arriva at Its
valuation and said it was absurd. He said
when railroad stock was sold the railroad
was not sold, but that a share of stock
merely entitled one to a share In the
profits and In the government of the roads.
It lsn t the property that makes the
profits to divide," he said, "but It la the

you change the market value of the stock.
There Is no relation between the capital
stock snd the property." He then cited
instances where the market value of cor
porations had changed 60 per cent within
a year, the property remaining the same.
