Friday an article appeared in the evening papers to the effect that an explosion - plosion occurred at the corner of 17tli and Davenport from the use of natural gas. It was claimed that the gis ex ploded , tearing the raugo to pieces , also injuring an aged lady very seriously. The facts are that there was no explo sion , and no person was even scared , lot alone injured.

One of Them Tulkn Almut ttic Inter national Convention. "Yes , the bricklayers uud stonemasons nro Retting things in shape for the coming sea son , " said one of the former , "and they will go about the way this week's intcrnatiotia convention will direct. The convention was sitting lust week , ana represented Canada as well as the United States , hut I guess it didn't make many radical changes. J3aol subordinate union is entitled to a represen tation ot' three delegates in the convention Several members arc required to form a local union , ana if the membership exceeds three hundred an additional delegate is al lowed for each 5UO members In excess of 300. If one delegate from u local union only is present he is entitled to three votes. Two members nro entitled to a vote and a half each , so that each union having one delegate present has equal weight in the confurenco There is one thins , however , they have de termined upon , and that is if a man is ex pelled for cause , ho will have to stay ex pelled. There was ono of that kind named Matthews Diclc Matthews who was ex pelled from u New Vorlc union for nonpayment ment of dues. IIo had lots of friends and they made a light to have him reinstalled by the convention , but it was found that within n few days after his expulsion ho was offered u chance to join again on payment of his dues or without them. Ho got his spunk up nnd would not do it , declaring that ho would 'bust up' the union. Ten thousand dollars would be no inducement to No. 7 to readmit him now. His name Is Dennis , and so will every other man be christened that bucks the union this year. " 'I don't think wo will have any trouble this yo.ir in Omaha , " hu added , "for both bosses and men undoi stand what the losses will be to themselves nnd each other. There will bo no foolish strikes , but the men will sco that every right they uro entitled to , will bo protected.

"Who nrc you , nnd whore uro you goingS" "I'm 'Maggie the Tramp,1 and I'm on an endless pilgrimage. " The above conversation took place between an officer at the Union. Pacific depot and n slovenly appearing woman about foi-ty-flvo years of age , Friday near tlic hour of mid night. The Woman , arrived ut the depot from Council Ulults on the " , ' 15 dummy , and carried iu her arms n babe of about twelve months. , She entered the lathes' 'waltirig room at the depot , and took up ipjarters in an obscure corner of the room. Thinking that she was awaiting the arrival of friends , the employes at the depot paid but llttlo nt- tcnlion to her until the hour for closing the depot arrived An officer then approached her , when the above conversation ensued. At Jirst the latter thought to call up the pa trol and send his impromptu guest to the police - lice station , and undoubtedly would luivo done so had not another of the attaches ar rived on the scene and at once recognized her as the female who is known ns "Maggie the Tramp" between the two oceans , the British possessions and the Gulf of Mexico. It is stated that for the past twelve years this woman has been traveling from one point to another on the chanty of the public and when private contributions fail , she im mediately repairs to the county commission ers , and , it is said , invariably succeeds in ob- tulning aid and transportation to another point , where the same thing is repeated. As to her motives for doing this , several theo ries are advanced. The omniou is that nho is but half-witted , and therefore travels about the country in this man ner. Another theory is that the woman is traveling under the garb of a pauper , but is in reality a fcmalo detective. Just what weight can bo attached to the lat ter theory remains to bo solved , as there is no instance wherein the woman is known to have boon nonnested with the arrest of any one. She has on two dilTerunt occasions made a tour of the Union Pacific to the coast , and is thought to bo on a third tour. How ever , at her earnest solicitation she was al lowed to lias the night in the depot , and yes terday morning she took her babe and started about the city , and nothing hus been heard of her since. NOT KAVOKAIUjY ItKClSlVEII. The Ile < nicHt. of tlio School IJoai-d For Moro Money. The finance committee of the city council met last night nt the council chamber to con sider the tax levy of ISS'J. They wore visited by a delegation of the board of education , consisting of President Clark and Messrs. Goodman , Millard , Sholes and Secretary Piper. This committee desired the council to civo the board of education si school levy of 1 mill for the sinking fund nnd 5 mills for the general fund. This was based on an esti mate on the needs of the school board and nbovo thojjicomo from all licenses nnd fines from the police court. The council commlUt'o did not take any action In the premises , but thu prevailing disposition waste to cut the school levy down to a minimum , ns the levy for city purposes is already very high , and in tlio opinion of thu council com mittee the school board can get along with the iticomo already ut its disposal.

T11K COUNTY COMMISSIONKUS. ItoCornm SiiggpHtcd at Their Meeting In Lincoln IHIHI Week. If the suggestions made at the convention of county commissioners In Lincoln last week , are carried out by the legislature , it will make : i marked chance in the future taxation of the state. Ono of the changes , nnd perhaps the most important , is that sug < gosling that nil taxable property bo assessed nt its full value. This , It is thought , will place tlio finances of the stntq In a moro intelligible < telligiblo position In eastern money markets , It will not effect the amount of taxes paid by each taxpayer , but it will nominally reduce the percentage as published. Tlmt Is , Omnhn nt present Is paying 7 } $ per coat on t reduced valuation , whereas , if it was as sessed nt its full value , from 1 to 'J per ccnl would bo sufllcicnt , and yet the amount of taxes received would bo the same. Till ? would put it in a much more favorable light with eastern capitalists , who uro often deterred by what scorns to them nn exhorbhnnt taxation , while in reality , It Is no more than they are called upon to pay in the east. Another suggestion mndo was that the state board of equalization bo enlarged , nnd that in addition to the governor , state aud itor and stnto treasurer , each district judge bo empowered to naino ono person to act foi his district. H would bo loft to this board to oiiunlizo thu state assessment , ns atiionp counties , nnd It is intended that when one county would tux itself heavily for local im provements , it should not bo compelled to jiiiy a state tax in the same proportion. The board would also have the power of equaliz ing in bulk , as between counties , all assess- ! ble stock , live stock nnd improvements as for example , where the assessors of two ad joining counties put n totally different valua tion upon fcorscs In thu ono county S3.1 apieee.aml in the ether $7i5 the board would bo empowered to reduce the $7. > or increase the § S5 ( for stnto taxation ) which at present they cannot do. Still another suggestion was that of mak ing the ofllce of assessor cither elective , or nppointivo by the district judges , the ap pointment to be approved by the county commissioners , and of having only ono as sessor in the county instead of the number less oflicials who nt present spend a portion of the year in drawing salary. Other alterations nnd amendments were talked of. and finally Chairman Anderson appointed Messrs. Shnhcrt , of Lancaster county , Todd , of Cass county , and O'ICeelTo , of Douglas , a committee to draft the neces sary bill , and present it to the legislature for consideration. They will miiot in Lincoln at 10 a. m. Tuesday morning , and in the mean time General Cowin will outline n measure covering the above , and other points. The I'o'.lcc Court.
