NEW SCHEDULE FOR NORFOLK
IN EFFECT THURSDAY.
ORDINARY CALLS REMAIN SAME
Rate From Thirteenth Street Crossing
of the Northwestern Railroad Into
Town Will be 50 Cents $1 an Hour
. For Waiting In Night.
Hack rates In Norfolk will undergo
n change day after tomorrow. It will
not bo n universal change , and will
not agoct the ordlnar ) cab calls , but
will apply particularly to but two
classes of calls. The rates from the
Thirteenth street crossing of the Chicago
cage fc Northwestern railroad , into
the city , will bo Increased from twen
ty-five to lift ) cents and a now regu
lation will go into effect by virtue of
sshich the cabs will charge $1 an hour
U for waiting upon persons between the
hours of 2 a. m and 7 n m All other
rates remain unchanged.
Meaning of Change.
The drive to the Thirteenth street
crossing of the Northwestern railroad
makes n Journey of more than four
miles for the cab , and for that trip n
rate of but twenty-five cents has boon
charged hitherto.
This trip has become n common one
for Norfolk , as many Northwestern
freight trains which run In from the
west carry passengers only to this
crossing. The result is that Norfolk
people on those trains telephone from
the depot nt Battle Creek to the cab
men here , ordering a hack to bo at tlio
crossing to meet the train. The cab
men have boon making the long trip
for a quarter and find that It Is Im
possible to do the work for that
amount , thcrefoio , after March 1. the
rates will advance.
The new chnigo of $1 an hour for
svaiting between the hours of 2 and
7 In the momlng is made to protect
the cabbies against the long cold waits
of the earl ) morning , when they suf
fer from the chill , as do also their
horfeos. It is said that in many cases
they are kept waiting for soveial
\ hours at a time , and they want pay
Other rates in Norfolk , for drives
nil over the city , remain at twenty-
live cents , which has long boon recog
nized as an extremely reasonable rate.
Could Improve Service.
The cabmen complain that people
who order cabs are not definite enough
in giving their instructions , and that
as a result theie is a vast amount of
misunderstanding and wrong calls
Some people merely give sticet num
bers without the names , and others
meiely give names without street
nunibcis. The cabmen nay that Nor
folk is now laige enough that mini-
hois and names both aie lequlred If
the service is to ho piopoilv main-
* tainod. and the public will confer a
< . favor upon itself by beating this fact
/V in mind.
Quit "caitying people along" find
uselul people for emploes.

to District Court.
O'Neill , Neb. , Feb. 27 Special to

from the action of the board of super
visors In allowing a claim of $1227
filed against the cottnty by former

fees and cases of sale on tax sales to
the county of Holt. " Mr. Skldmoro
Is a member of the county board , bill
takes the position that that body had
no right to allow the claim , as he
sas there Is no provision In the law
for doing the same.
Treasurer Cronln's bill is for fees
claimed to he duo on sales of tracts
of land bought by the county , througl
the boaid of supervisors , at the delln
quont tax sale last fall under the

cato of tax sale Issued by him , also
23 cents for each redemption cortlfi
cato and $1 for each tax sale deed is
sued by and no other fee for peiform
Ing the duties requited by him under
this act. "
The hoard allowed the claim 01
February 17 , but the svarrant has no
yet been drawn on the county treas
urcr for the amount Mr Skldmoie's
appeal presents n legal proposition
that It is believed has not jet arisen
under the now revenue law.
