The Cost of Insurance.
The rcnBon for thlfl legislative de
cision la that the annual promlunui
on the Insurance nocejwnry to bo car
ried on atnto property would amount
* to more than % 10,000 and nn npproprl-
ntlon of nearly $100,000 for ouch hi-

leged that If ono of the state build
ings wna to burn down every third
year the Btato could build n hotter
ono much cheaper than It could pay
Innurnnco premiums on nil for three
yonrH. Governor Mickey , by Bpoclal
moBsngo , called the attention of the
Innt legislature to the lack of fumln
for pnymunt of Insurance premiums ,
but no action waB taken on the mes
sage.
Nebraska Is fairly well equipped
with so-called flro proof Btnto build
ings , two of the best of which , the
ponltontlnry nnd the Norfolk asylum ,
have burned down and are being ro-
bullt.
The most massive nnd the mot
combustible of the present Btnto
buildings Is the capital. The capital
Is a "whltod Bopulchro" In aovoral
senses of the term and flro exports
nro of the opinion that n flro once
started In the building nmd gaining
good headway could not bo stopped.
. . The ollod woodwork of the interior ,
' v 'the flimsy structure of the dome nnd
the draughty corridors of the basement
mont and upper stories would add en
ergy to the ( lamcB.
Loss Would be Great.
If the state house wore to burn the
toes to the Btato would bo Impossible
to ostlmnto. Books to the value of
nearly a million dollars repose In the
stnto library on the second and third
floors. Sorao of these works are ex
ceedingly rare and could not bo re
placed at nny price. In the record
rooms of the supreme court nro
stored n vast number of supreme
court opinions , the loss of which
would result In n , deluge of now litiga
tion. In the vaults of the land com
missioner's olllco are land titles and
abstracts , the destruction of which
would involve the titles of millions of
dollars of Nebraska farm nnd city
lands , and In the vaults of the secre
tary of state are the records of the
administrations slnco the beginning
of the commonwealth.
In all of the other state ofllccs nro
papora of untold value and Import-
unco.
The capltol lacks Jlro proof vaults
in which to store these valuables and
it would bo hard to build them In the
present structure.
Learn to Smoke There.
The chance of llro in the capltol
are excellent. In the upper corridors
students assemble every week day to
take their tlrst lessons In smoking
cigarettes. The matches nro cast upon -
< on the mattings and carpets and the
Jnuitors and city truant olllcor find
it necessary to make frequent patrols
to disperse the loiterers. Persons
visiting the dome climb the rickety ,
winding wooden stairways , lighting
their way by the flare of a match ,
recklessly casting the glowing ends
to the floor when too short to hold.
There are two tanks on the capltol
roofs which might put out n small
flro and several water pipes are
stretched , along the walls. There is
a legend to the effect that hose once
wns connected to these pipes , but of
its truthfulness living man knowoth

IT WILL BE A TERRIBLE GOHFLICT
The Hordei of the Mikado and Thoio
of the Czar Will Fight Fiercely.
( Krom Friday' * Dally. ]
Though It IH not posnlblo to aupposo
that the Russians will put halt or even
one-third of their effective war
strength Into the field , nnd though It
IIIIH been announced that no troops
will bo withdrawn from the Austrian
of Uessorablan frontiers , It may bo
Interesting to Btnto what the actual
wnr Btrongth of the Russian army Is ,
said n Norfolk merchant who Is following -
lowing the situation In the far east.
It should bo remembered that every
year 890,000 young men tire liable to
conscription , of whom 220,000 nro em
ployed , the remainder passing Into
the reserve. The total wnr strength
of the nctlvo nrmy IB twenty-four army
corps , with llfty-ono Infantry nnd
twonty-threo cavnlry divisions , ono
rlllo dlvlHlon nnd two rlllo brlgndcs.
The reserve consists of twenty
divisions of the first nnd fifteen
divisions of the second class , 400
CoHsnck squadrons and seventeen
horse artillery batteries of six
1G pounders each. The active
class , 190 Cossack squndrons nnd sev
enteen horse nrtlllory batteries of
six IG-poundors each. The nctlvo
nrmy consists of 989 battalions of In
fantry , 730 squadrons of cavnlry , 3-
782 guns , 101 engineer companies , 29-
000 officers and 1,200,700 men. The
reserves , Including local nnd fortress
troops , bring the strength to 2,870 bnt-
tnllons , 1,000 squndrons , 0,500 guns ,
75,000 oinccrs nnd 4,500,000 men.
Hussln , with nil her strength , hns
n most formidable antagonist In Ja
pan. It Is Btrongth agnlnst strength ;
might ngalnst might ; lion against lion.
It will bo a dreadful war. Russia , in
splto of her thin veneer of civiliza
tion , still n nntlon of men with snv-
ago love for lighting In their hcnrts
nbovo nil other feelings ; Russia , with
her Immense resources , not forget
ting the largest nrmy In the world ,
all as ono man rondy to dlo for the
czar , who Is to them not merely their
sovereign bnt God's regent on earth.
What will bo the outcome , now that
Russia has mot In the shock of battle
the Mikado's millions of hardy sol
diers and sailors , with their keen In
telligence , their Imperturbable cou
rage , tholr Inborn belief that they
must sacrifice themselves , if need bo
for their emperor , who Is not God's
regent but a god himself , and their In
stinct for slaughter ?
The outcome no man can forecast
now , but ono thing Is certain , nnd that
Is that the war will bo bloody , cruel ,
terrible. The enemies , while prima
rily their hatred was awakened by
a dispute over territory , have now al
most forgotten everything but their
hatred itself. For a long time they
have known that they must fight , that
one day the question would have to
bo settled whether Russia or Japan
shall dominate Asia , and now that
fatal day has come. Let me repeat ,
this will be an awful struggle. Here
Is the situation wise , prudent , con
servative Japan , versus strong ,
greedy , strategic Russia.
MEAT MARKET BURNS.
Fire In O'Neill ' Causes Damage to
Building.
tFrorrt Saturday's Dally.1
Frank Brlttolla meat market was
reduced to n state of ruins last Thurs
day night by flre , although the build
ing was not consumed. The fire start
ed In the meat cooler or more1 pro
perly the meat warmer at this sett-
son of the year. A lighted lamp was
placed In the cooler to keep the meat
from freezing and It Is probable the
llro started from the lamp. The flre
was discovered shortly nften 10
o'clock when n roomer occupying
apartments over the meat market
came in to repair to bod. Ho encoun
tered a cloud of smoke upon opening
his door. An nlnrm was at once
turned In nnd the fire department wns
quickly on the scene. Entrnnco to
the building was forced nnd streams
of water turned onto the flames.
With a terrible crash the lamp ex
ploded and flames of flre shot in all
directions. John Sklrvlng was In the
forefront of several In the building
at the time of the explosion and was
badly though not seriously burned
about the face and head and his shirt
almost burned off of him.
It looked like a serious thine for
the whole block from Gallagher's cor
ner to Blglln's for a while , and Post
master Cronln had the United States
malls sacked up ready to move out
at any moment. With characteristic
like energy and untiring activity the
fire department soon had the flames
subdued without damage to adjoining
buildings.
The building is owned by Con Keya
and Is Insured for { 250 , which Is suf
ficient to cover the damage. Mr. Brit-
tell has $500 Insurance on his proper
ty. Frank seems to have been fol
lowed by a series of bad luck the lost
three or four years. Three years ago
his slaughter house burned down , en
tailing a loss of $200 or more ; last
year ho mot with an accident which
cost him the loss of the use of n hand
for several months , nnd now he has
been burned out. Ho says ho ex
pects to start up In business again.
