ia Lincoln. Mr. Paine and his im
ported hif will hear the aame chorus
raised of the Incompetency cf the de
partment, and there will be no more
or co lea truth in the cry than there
has been. The truth is that Lincoln
has always had a very competent de
partment, w ell !cered and well man
aged, and it haa the same now, but
when a big nre come and there are
not enough men in the whole depart
ment to properly man the hose lines.
no chief can eZectirely bardie the full
equipment. Add to this an unruly mob.
Jed by prominent citizens and even city
officer, as occurred at the last big
fre in Lincoln, which dtags away lines
of hose and attempts to carry away
ladders, leaving firemen isolated upon
burning buildings, and the wonder 1
that half the city ha not been burned
and half the firemen killed.
What is needed is more firemen, an
effective Sre police and more water
pressure !n the business centre. The
most feasible plan to secure this seems
to be Mr. Paine plan., but the city
should not neglect to asV the next leg
. filature for authority to do business
in all It departments on a business
basis.
With full notice from this first case
thit smallpox was In the city, it does
not appear that the mayor made any
more except to erect a temporary pest
house outside of his Jurisdiction.which
wsa promptly burned by somebody.
When smallpox broke out in the Palm
er house the incompetency of the
mayor became more pronounced than
erer. With a single health officer
work commenced to fight smallpox.
t & city physician was apparently
afraid of the disease and nerer did a
lick" of work In treating the patient
or aiding In the suppression of it.
The mayor did not trust himself with
in the dartxr line, though he is a phy
sicUa who ought to know enough to
protect himself. The smallpox did not
top at the Palmer house. In fact It
developed that it had been in several
places before the Palmer house epi
sode. The health officer worked day
and night like a hero, kicked, cuffed
and abused by the public, and ham
pered with city red tape and a mayor
w ho w as all at sea. Dr. ?. J. Beach
ley wa employed to look after the
ease -and day and night was taken
he-re and there to examine suspects,
lock after half a hundred Impatient
people who were in quarantine, secure
medicine and even attenuants for the
sick. For week the air wa full of
smallpox facta, smallpox rumors,
smallpox scare and the odor of fumi
gation. Places f business were shut
tp and everything done that could in
reason be done to stamp out the dis
ease. Finally the last case wa out of
tic city at a amaUpox resort set cp
Is a tent, the last known Infected place
had been fumigated and the last quar
antine raised.
This sort of thing is beneath the
dignity of a city like Lincoln. Two
year ago Nebraska City spent oirer
15,000 in a similar emergency, and
while that city did ask state aid fend
have it refused, it paid its bills fairly
and honorably. A business mayor
and a business council would take up
all of these claims, audit them fairly
and impartially and pay them prompt
ly instead of dodging and quibbling
over them. If the mayor and city
physician had attended to the business
for which they -were elected and ap
pointed there would have been no doc
tor bill to pay the city physician is
paid a salary for Just such emergencies
and If the mayor excuses him from
doing the work and employs another
to do it. the bill must be paid and all
the noise his honor can now make will
not cover his responsibility. If the
acting city physician orders medicine,
attendance, food or even clothing for
his patients, the city Is morally and
legally bound to pay the bill. This
n emergency where no red tape
was perrolssab'e if smallpox was to be
stamped out of the city. It has been
stamped out, and now in the name of
decency let the city pay its bills and
get ready to elect a mayor of more
business sense.
This city has never had a hospital
for the care of people afflicted with
contagious diseases and when the first
case of smallpox was discovered In the
McMurtry block last February, the
single patient was removed to a house
at Lincoln park which the owner now
claims was forcibly taken possession
of and used as a pest house. This
house was in a cluster of barns, sta
bles, etc., and connected with the race
track: It had been rented for a year
and the tenant had part of his goods
moved into the house when the city
health officer and the chief of police
broke down the fence and took posses
sion. Mr. Wolf, the owner, has filed
a claim for J 1.500 damages against the
city and he will find out how far the
power of a mayor extend in confiscat
ing property.
The Lincoln Traction company is up
against a lawsuit, for the July rent
money at Lincoln park. Of the merits
of the case The Independent knows
nothing and cares less, but if the trac
tion company has been paying rents
out there In order to make business for
its cars, why cannot It afford to make
the park a free resort and charge
enough for concessions to property po
lice and care for the place? If the
park were made free, thousands would
go there where hundreds go now. It
could be made a pleasure resort for
the whole city. The Union-Commercial
club might take a hand in this and
in conjunction with the traction com
pany arrange for next year.
SMALLPOP ACCOUNTS
The city administration seems all
balled up at present and if the present
plan of autocratic dictation on the part
of the mayor is to be followed there
will be a merry line of lawsuits to de
fend in the near future. The policy
(or lack of policy) of the mayor since
the first case of smallpox broke out in
Lincoln has not been one to commend
him to the people. It has been a penny
wise and pound foolish performance
from the start.
Then commenced a merry time. Bills
began to come in. People who had
been furnishing food and medicine,
people who had cooked for the tem
porary hospital, people who had been
nurse and attendants wanted pay.
Then Mayor Winnett, who had issued
orders like the war lord of Germany,
became economical. He Inaugurated a
plan of either cutting down or turn
ing down bills. Those who had money
due put In claims and waited. Most
of them are waiting yet.
Dr. Beachley asked the city to pay
him ten dollars a day for his services
and the mayor (who would have re
fused the job at five times more) set
up an opposition and declared it an
outrage. His city council offered the
doctor a compromise and the result is
a lawsuit which will cause much more
expense than it would to have paid
the claim. Bills for groceries were
hung up until such time as the mayor
could find time to pass on them, and
so far he seems not to have found
time.

President Eliot of Harvard told this
story at a dinner:
A friend of mine, a college pro
fessor, went Into a crowded restaurant
in New York city for luncheon one hot
day last summer. The negro In charge
of the big corridor where the hat
shelves stood was an Intelligent look
ing fellow, and his bow and smile were
not of the obsequious, stupid kind so
often affected by colored waiters and
doormen in hotels. He took my friend's
hat and gave no check for it In return.
An hour later, when the' professor
came put of the dining room, the negro
glanced at him in a comprehensive
w&y, turned to the shelves and handed
him his hat.
"My friend is a man who prides him
self on his powers of observation, and
thi negro's ability to remember to
whom each article of clothing belonged
struck him as being something very
wonderful.
'How did you know thia was my
ha.tr he asked.
" 'I didn't know it, sah was the re
ply.
Then why did you give it to me?
the professor persisted.
'Because you gave It to me, sah. "

The Comnteaa of Ayr,
At a dance In the country a gilded
youth from town was complaining that
there was nobody fit to dance with.
"Shall I Introduce you to that young
lady over there?" asked his. hostess.
"She is the daughter of the Countess of
Ayr."
Delighted, the young man assented,
and, after waltzing with the fair scion
of a noble house, ventured to ask after
her mother, the Countess of Ayr.
"My father, you mean," said the girL
"No, no, no," said the bewildered
youth, "I was asking after your moth
er, the Countess of Ayr."
"Yes," was the reply, "but that's my
father."
Utterly at a loss, the young man
rushed off in search of his hostess and
said the girl she had made him dance
with was "quite mad; told him the
Countess of Ayr was her father."
"So he is," answered the lady of the
house. "Let me Introduce you to him.

. "I wa fishing for cod off the Banks
one day some years ago, said one,
when I dropped my watch overboard.
The next year I went fishing at the
same place. I caught a whopping big
fellow and. found my watch inside ot
him.. It was running steadily, the no
tion of the fish's liver having kept.it
wound up. But it was five hours fast.
The only way that I can account for it
Is that the fish crossed the Atlantic,
staid on the other side long enough
to get the time over there, and that I
caught him too soon after he got back
to allow the watch to regulate itself."
"I was fishing for trout in Pennsyl
vania last fall," said another member,

an inveterate cigarette smoker. We
landed a ten pounder and allowed him
to flounder around in the bottom of the
boat while we cast again, because they
were biting freely. My nephew had
Just thrown a lighted cigarette in the
boat, and in some way this trout got
it, put it in his gills and smoked it.
The cigarette seemed . to have a sooth

when we killed him Christmas I served
up to ray guests something that ! be

Went m. Little Too Far.
A commercial traveling man landed
at Edinburgh, Scotland, one Saturday
night, too late to get outof town for Sun
day. The next day he found that there
was actually no form of amusement in
the whole city to assist him In whiling
away the day. - He went to the pro
prietor of the hotel to see if he could
suggest a way of passing the remain
der of the day.
The landlord took pity on the stran
ger and took him to one of the rooms
in the house .in which a number of
Scotchmen were playing a game called
"nap," which is a sort of modification
of "seven up." They were playing for
a shilling a point, so that the game was
a pretty stiff one. The stranger got in
the game and played very cautiously,
for he was quite sure that the players,
or at least some of them, were cheat
ing. One solemn faced Scot, he was
especially sure, he caught cheating a
number of times. He began whisling
a part of some vagrant tune. The Scot
who had been cheating arose from the
table and threw down the cards.
"What is the matter?" the other play
ers asked.
"I'm gangin awa" the Scot answer
ed, glaring at the 6tranger. "I'll play
cards wi no mon that whustles on the

to call upon him at his office or house
and hold him in conversation as long
as possible, studying his features. ,
When he took his departure he would
purposely leave his cane. Once outside
Nast would make a hasty pencil sketch
on a card and would usually find that
his memory was deficient as to some
detail. He would then return, ostensi

the victim would enable him to per
fect his sketch. After that he had the

A Famn Duel.
A duel was fought in Texas by Alex
ander Shott and John S. Nott. Nott
was shot and Shott was not. In this
case it is better to be Shott than Nott.
There was a rumor that Nott was not
shot, but Shott avows that he was not,
which proves either that the shot Shott
shot at Nott was not shot or that Nott
was shot notwithstanding.
I may be made to appear on trial
that the shot Shott shot shot Nott or, as
accidents with firearms are frequent, it
may be possible that the shot Shott
shot shot Shott himself, when the
whole affair would resolve Itself into
Its original element, and Shott would
be shot and Nott would be not.
We think, however, that the shot

HOME VISITORS,"
A NEW EXCURSION.
Two Days When Nebraskans Can Go
East at Half Fare on the Burlington.
Belief That a Great Many Will Take
These Trips and Tell Old Neighbors
of the Plenty in Nebraska.
Two "home visitors' days have been
announced by the Burlington good
from all over Nebraska to points In
Iowa, Missouri, Illinois, Wisconsin and
Minnesota on ' which the regular
"homeseekers " rates of one fare plus
$2 for the round trip will be good. The
tickets will be good for thirty days. ..
"I have announced these rates that
the people of Nebraska, many of whom
came from these states, will be encour
aged to go back to their homes on a
visit this fall," said John Francis, gen
eral passenger agent of the Burlington,
when asked to explain the difference
between homeseekers and home vis
itors excursions. "Most of these peo
ple came out here a few years ago, and
have done pretty well. Now, if they
go back to their old homes this fall
with good clothes on their backs and
plenty of money in their pockets, as
most of the Nebraska farmers can do,
and tell their stories of the big crops
raised in Nbraska, it will result in their
inducing thousands of friends and rel
atives to come to this state and locate.
"The dates are September 10 and 26,
the tickets being good for thirty days.
On the two following days, September
11 and 27, the roads In Illinois will
make low rates to points further on
east, so that people desiring to go to
Indiana, Ohio or other states further
east can avail themselves of low rates
all of the way through. I want to tell
you that this is one of the biggest
movements ever Inaugurated to bring
people to this state." Omaha World
