poses to hare arrangements made eft thla
money win be turned Into the treasury.
'at la estimated that anjwhert from

roarwr. "There is no reason why the city
should lose ths money. I am told that
certain leasees, with valuable concessions

year after year using the property and
not paying the city a rent. Thii will have to
h stopped and tha amounts dua collected.
I am inclined to favor an ordinance mak

the collections."
Chief Clerk Petersen of ths city engineer
ing department is authority for the state
ment that se-reral. hundred pieces of city
property scattered over tha city are oc
cupied by tenants who neither hold leases
nor pay rent. He says dwellings are
located on some of the city lots, while

so that something can be done before long
toward bavin tun wecupants cither evicted
jr required to pay rest.
Tha publication of tha list of delinquent
property under the provisions of the scav-n-er
law baa brought to light the fact
that assessments bare been made regu
larly against about u0 pieces of municipal
property. Na taxes were paid, and it is
aid tha lands will be sold by the county
treasurer unless the city shows Its owner
ship Tbis tha legal department Is ar
raxxlntT to do. Tha error has been
fcrouxent about by the failure of the coun
cil to notify the taxing and financial offl
oars of the county and city governments of
property acquired for , various purposes.
Recently a dark was employed In the
treasurer's office to get up a statement
iroiklTiaT the showing; and little confusion is
anticipated after thla year. Among the
property owned by the city and listed for
delinquent taxes is the fifteen-acre tract
used for the emergency hospital site.
The Board of Education has found more
tbaa VjODO la delinquent special taxes listed
aurainst school district property. Arrange
ments are beta made now so that school
oases and grounds will not be offered for

DESERTED ON HIS DEATHBED
Toung laa from Iowa. Dying in Hospital
Without Family'i Cheer.
SISTER VISITS HIM UNDtR PROTEST
Cames Only oa Telegrnm that Her
Brother Is Dying and Relates
Tnle at a Prallgnta
Life.
Ilia life slowly ebHng away, a stranger
In a stranee land, denied by re-la tlvee whom
he first deserted. Joseph Huskey, from a
little Iowa town. Is at the St. Joseph
hoepital awaiting the final summona
Huikey went to the hospital several
rights agt and sought admission. He
was suffering from a severe wound In his
neck which he said be had received by
running into a wire clothes line. Physi
cians were called and upon examination
they found Huskey had a cancer in bis
throat. This had been Severely aggravated
probably In the manner stated by the
man. An operation waa performed and
for several hours hla life hung by a
thread. Realizing that the end was near,
Huskey sent this message to a brother In
Iowa:
"Come quick. Dying In a hospital."
The message he Insisted be sent to John
Hufkcy and to those, to whom he com
municated his desires it was evident that
In John Huskey the dying man expected
to find a friend.
From a sister who came here In re
sponse to the message It was learned
that Joseph Huskey is rounding out a
profitless life.
iry Told by His Sister.
Prom his sister"e story It was learned
Huskey cams Into his own a few years ago
and proceeded to spend It with a hilarious
band. He soon came to the end of his
bank account and Induced his brothers
and sisters to give him a new a'jrt in
life. He seemed to settle down and wss
engaged In what appeared to be a profit
able business when, one fine morning,
the town awoke to the fact that the busi
ness was In the hands of a receiver, the
proprietor had disappeared leaving an
avalanche of accounts to be settled by his
friends and family and serious losses lft
as mementos to his confiding friends.
No word was heard from the wanderer and
tbe family supposed he had ended his
life and gave him tip as an Inhabitant
of another world until his telegram was
sent home Wednesday.
The sister was in no amiable frame of
mind when she arrived In Omaha bound for
the hospital. Enroute to the hospital In a
Tenth street motor car, she unburdened
herself to another passenger of this rtory:
"Dying, la he," she said. "Well, I hope
ha lives until I see blm and give him a
piece of my mind. What a check he had
to send for me when we thought be bad
killed himself.
At the hospital the woman remarked:
"I don't see why he sent for me."
Tha woman returned to her borne
Wednesday night after having under -protest
gone to the bedside of the prodigal
son, her brother.
The operation has brought temporary re
lief to Huskey, but never was the finger
of death pointed more sure at a human.
Today he was propped up in an invalid s
chair, hla few daya' growth of beard only
heightening the Intense pallor of his face.
He may aurvlve for several days, but the
attending physicians do not hope for re
covery. They say his death la but a mat
ter of a short time. y

Brought by Contestant far Some
BnUdlaa- Material.
Somewhere in tbe Bible It Is said In effect
that the stone which the builder re
jected sha41 become tha oorner stone of
the temple. Another case where tbe
builder has been shown In contempt has
come to light In an Omaha justice court.
Acoording to the story told in Justice
Foster's court by A. C. Ong, president of
the Nebraska Business college, and J. O.
Augustun, litigants in a suit decided this
morning In favor of . the defendant, . both
parties bought from the Drexel stone yard
a quantity of atones rejected in 1HS9 by
the architect of the Omaha federal build
ing. It Is alleged that in ISM Mr. Ong
bought twenty-two of the rejected stones
and took only a few of them at that time,
leaving the balance at the yard for nearly
a year. During 1800. It is said, Mr. An
gustcm also bought some of the stones and
Immediately removed them to. his yard at
Twentieth auad Vinton streets. Mr. Ong
then went to the yard tor the balance of
hla stones and It appears that soma he
had bought had been removed to the Ao
guston yard. Mr. Ong Is then charged with
sending a wagon 'to the Auguston yard and
getting the disputed stones. Negotiations
axe said to have been pending since that
time looking toward an amicable settle
ment, hut this not having been accom
plished, Mr. Auguston recently started suit
In Foster's court against Mr. Ong for tlOO,
the alleged value of the stones. Judge
Foster this morning decided In favor of
Mr. Ong, holding that the case had been
outlawed by virtue of ths statue of limita
tion. And thus thc rejected stones have
become tha corner stones of the Ong
temple.

BOUND TO HAVE HIS PRESENTS
When Love Crows' Cold Milady Re
tains Them and Romee
Makes a Raid.
Mrs. Grundy would be shocked If she
heard of the lack of etiquette in the case
of George Randell, rooming at the Oxford
hoteLand Llzsle Kester of 824 Douglas
street, whose troubles were last night
brought to the attention pf the police.
According to the story told the police,
Randell loved Llzsle Kester madly, pas
aionately, extravagantly. His one thought
waa for her, hla one aim to make her
happy. In pursuance of the aforesaid aim
he recklessly bought hes a "gold" watch
valued at two simolooma Miss Kester was
overjoyed at the -little present-and thanked
her George with all the' ( winning waya of
which. she waa capabla.j" Randell said ss
long as the dear girl was happy he did
not mind the monetary outlay., , There came
a day, however, when Miss Kester looked
kindly on a rival and George was left out
In the cold.. According to all rules formu
lated by society Miss Kester ought to have
returned the watch. But she prided her
self on being a free, untrammeled creature
who did not care the toss of a coin for
Mrs. Grundy's . frown and lived her life
like a gay little Bohemian. For old time
sake Randell wanted the 13 watch returned.
Miss Kester was willing to bury tha past
and keep the watch. Therefore, the police
claim, did, Randell, unwisely and In an
evil moment, hie himself to milady 'a
boudoir and awlpe the ticker. ' Tbe upshot
of the affair is that Randell has the charge
of petit larceny placed against him.
GLOBE SAVINGSBANK AGAIN
Answer to Beam ended Bill for E aera
tion at Ad-verse Jndarment Filed
la District Ceart.
Answers to the rea mended bill for an
execution on the judgment against the de
funct Globe Savings bank and Its bonds
men on the bond of the Institution for
15,900, whlcb was begun soma time ago by
James M. Wcckerly, a depositor of the
bank, were filed In the district court yes
terday afternoon.
All of the defendants assert that Weck
erly should hare filed his claim against
the estate of the late Henry O. Devrles
and ask that his present suit be dismissed
because of bis failure to do so.
They deny, as they t did on previous oc
casions, that the bank was Insolvent when
the bond waa executed. It la also declared
that the bank did not turn over Its assets,
amounting to $55,000, to the sureties.
Cadet Taylor and tbe Globe Loan and
Trust company, two of the defendants,
assert that tbe sureties did not trade soma
of the assets of the bank for thirty-four
lota In Lin wood Park, South Omaha. Such
a transaction, they declare, would have
been void.
Taylor also urges the fact that he waa
declared a bankrupt on July 1 last, aa a
reason why the proceedings against htm
ahould be dismissed.
