He .said that he was engaged in the con- fi'ctlonery business at Lincoln and had a family consisting of a wlfo and u little baby just , a year old. Ho had always en joyed pleasant domestic relations until about two weeks ago , when Ids wife showed signs of bolng discontented with her rather humble lot and finally threat encd to leave him. He did not mijinose she had any intention of carrying her threat into evectition until a week a/o / ho went home from his work and found his wife had gone away and left their baby withonta word. Iliumidc investigation bat found no clue to her whereabouts until on Monday he received word that .she was in Omaha in evil associationsand ho decided to comn at once and look I'm her , He pnvo an accurate description of the woman , and an olllccr was f-ent to assist him in Ids search. The erring wife was soon located in the house of ill shape kept by His Stella Young on rom-lucntli street. When Johnson entered the place he was met by Ida wife , who was nggod out In the most approved style of the beauties of the lower order. Ho ga/.ctt nt her a moment , and then t.'tkinj ; her Into his arms buist into tears. The woman appeared very penilent.and asked for her baby and forgiveness , and prom ised to return with her hushanu to the homo she had deserted and disgraced. Her ponilonoo was not of the lasting order however. Wlulo she was packing licr trunk the other inmates of the place persuaded her to change her mind , and instead of returninir to her husband ready to start on the journey liome , she came with the chilling information that she had decided to stay where ahe was. Her hurib.itul had not hcen very good to her at her honm anyway , and sliu guessed , on the whole , she wouldn't ' tsxko any stock in his promises of reform , but would let him go homo alone. 'I he an nouncement crushed Johnson completely and , after a vain endeavor to get the policeman to help him remove the woman by foree , he left the house , lie will re turn to Lincoln to-day unless he can jn- iiu.cc Ids wife to change her mind again.

Councilman Scrhoedcr , the chronic ob jector of the city fathers , issulleringfrom a severe cold and can scarcely speak above a. whispor. He was very quiet last evening , and the business of the council was disposed of in something over an hour less than the usual time. The council met at 7.DOo'clock as a board of equaliza tion. A report was made recommending the asscMincut of private properly to de fray the expanse of opening , widening and extending certain streets. Air. Dailoy opposed the adoption of the report on the ground that the council hail no authority to assess back on prop erty to cover the cost of private properly appionriatcd forslieut purposes. In some cases ho thought the assessment to prop erty wore greater than the benefits Unit would accrue to such properly by & trout extensions and improvements. t _ City Attorney Council thought the matter ot the council's authority to make such assessment could not be questioned. The levies hail been very carefully coli- Fidered by the council and he thought that the assessment had boon very justly and equally made.

' An amendment mado'was the insertion of a section authorizing'the council to regulate the construction of buildings. The section was framed in compliance with the building Inspector's ordinance now in force. The public library section of tlio old chat tor was amended by the addition of a clause authorizing tlio city to purchase real estate and construct thu necessary buildings for a public library. Some time was devoted to a discussion authorising a survey and replatling of the city and tlio establishment of perma nent corner lines. City Engineer Koso- water was strongly in favor of this plan , but Mr. Popplctou opposed it on the ground that it would cause endless litigation. Mr. Hosowatcr lepliod that it would not cause any part of the litiga tion that will result if the present impor ted lines are not corrected. After Foino further tlbctission the amendment was adopted. No change was made in the sections relative to the apportionment ot taxes and the plan of asse-'smen ; . On the question of general taxes a lengthy dis cussion arose. Mr. bmytho olYbrcd a proposition that the tirst $ . 100 of each manV property bo exempt. Ho liopod by this plan to cqnuli/o the taxes so ihnl the poor man will not bo required to pay moro than his share. Various objections were urged to this , tlte chief one being that the state law expressly provides that taxation on real and personal propeitv shall be uniform and no exemptions can bo made without a change ot the state law. Alter a great deal of discussion definite action was postponed , and the committee adjourned to meet at U o'clook this afternoon. Thbcommittee expect to complete the work of revision to-morrow. .SUING HIS IMUTN'131 ! . Oiuilcl Dola'ioy A-ikn n Tscat Sum uT .7. n. Itilcy. J.

At an early hour all the scats were occupied by a happy throng of children and their friends while the older persons found btandlng room at a premium. The e\crci > > os were opened \ylti ) singing and the school was led in prayer by Jr. Mil- roy , tiuvoral recitations \yoro glvon by the members of Mrs. Crosby's infant class with great credit to tlii'insclvcs and their tuauhcr Thu iMiws'1 Kollcy s\ng : a boautitul duet , wlnht a r unrietto consist ing of JSjissos Manclioiter.

The committee proceeded to Fairy-land and called at tlio homo of Santa Clans ) , n beautiful evergreen fairy cottage that stood in the corner of the room , with a silver door bell at the door. After admiring the elegant homo they held a brief consultation as to bow they should proceed. At hut they nmstored up courage to ring the door Loll , but no one responded , again they aug it , when they wcro terribly frightened by two little grizzled dwurls who came rushing out irom the side entrance and demanded What they wanted. They told their er rand , but the dwarfs protested that Santa Ciaus had givcu till his presents away and had nothing left tor them. They iu- bislcd upon seeing dear old Santa aim- bclf , but tuo dwur/s refused to disturb him and went back into the houjc. They rantr the door-bell again vigorously when suddenly old Santa popped up out of the chimney mid in n grim voice demanded what they wanted , Though I hey wcro scared nearly to death , yet they plucked up enough courage to tell how he had forgotten the Southwest school , and bcirgcd him to bring something , for what would the in fant c'nss ' say , and what would the older scholars say. The Fairy Qtmon herself appeared with lior beautiful crown and fairy wand. She sang an enchanting song , and then inquired what all tlio trouble was about. San'/a told her all about it. She said Ihatthrro was a small supply of candy , nuts ami cakes in the palace. Santa ordered the dwarfs logo and bring it. They hastened away and soon returned loaded down with a gen erous treat , and returned with tl e over joyed committco to the school. Of course the scholars rejoiced when they saw the treat coming , for limy had almost given up all hope of gelling anything After a song the cvercisos were closed with prayer by the Hov. J. M. Wilson , of the Castellar Street church. CIIANUI2 OK MPit : A liady Sn s. "It Snvctl Sly Ijlfe. A lady living near llaverlnll , N.
