AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA.
Hoard of IMiicntlon Unit Decided to Auk for
u Tax Lovy.
For the first time slnco the city of South
Omaha was incorporated tbo Board ot Edu
cation has asked for a tax levy for school
purposes. Heretofore the amount of money
received from licenses anu other sources has
bcon sufllclcnt to maintain the schools end
make necessary improvements aud construct
now buildings ,
A coimuunlcutlon has been forwaraod by
Secretary Funston to the county commis
sioners nnd city council , glvlnir notion that
the board has decided a levy of 12 >
mills against tbo taxable property in
the school district Is necessary. The
money derived from thlstsourco will bo used
In the purchase of now sltos nnd the erection
of now buildings , which tbo nrcsont crowded
condition of the sohools makes absolutely a
necessity.
A larco number of property owners do not
bositnto to say Hint they will resist this at
tempt of the Board of Education to Incrcaso
thotaxlavy. The school district will this
year dorlvo a revenue of $35,000 irotn tbo
saloons , ana thereis now in the
treasury about ? < ) ,000. The expanse of main
taining ino schools is estimated at about
$30,000 per year. This would leave on hand
n balance of 810,000 or $11,000 , to bo expended
In Improvements. Tbo board owns two or
three valuable tracts of land within the city
limits which are now vacant and not in use.
Those who opooso the levying of the tax
claim that It would bo moro just nnd busi
ness lllto If ono of these valuable sltos was
disposed of und the money expended In the
proposed now school building * .
The objecting property owners say they
will immediately take stops to roslst tbo
levying oi the lax.

FKOM MIKE TO MR. MICHAEL.
An IrUhmtui Who tint n .Million Dollar * nnd
Knew U'hlltto lo with It.
"The story of Monte Cristo is gener
ally regarded as a highly Improbable
piece of llction , " said a Montana man to
11 reporter of the St. Louis Republic ,
"but I have in mind a case of a minor
in our state who cones very near fur
nishing a parallel character. About
ton years ago I had in my employ an
Irishman , a clover but totally unedu
cated fellow , who did odd jobs about my
place in Helena. You remember what
a feverish fat u to that country was in
about that tirao over the rich finds in
gold in the country adjacent. My Irish
man caueht the fever and ono day aston
ished mo by asking me to loan him $200 ,
with which ho wanted to buy a pros
pector's outfit. Well , the follow bogged
so hard and money was easy anyhow , so
I lot him have it. Ho bought him , a
inulo nnd some tools and lit out for the
mountains alono.
"In about a month ho carao back to
Helena with that mule fairly stagger
ing under a load of the richest of oro.
IIo hired thrco men , bought throe moro
mules , wont back to the hills , and struck
town shortly afterward with four moro
mules loaded as the first ono had been.
A representative of an English syndi
cate happened to bo in Helena about
this time on the lookout for mining in
vestments. Ho saw the Irishman's little
Sack train , took a sample of the ere ,
ad it assayed , wont out and examined
the claim , and then made the Irishman
a proposition that mighty nearly scared
him to death. I was sitting in my ofllco
at the time , when in burst Mike in a
state of terrible'excitement. .
" 'What do you think , ser , I'm offered
for me claim ? * ho gasped. Ono million
dollars and 25 per cent of the not
profits. '
"Of course I told him to soil , which
ho did. It proved a good investment
for all concerned , as the Englishmen
have taken millions of dollars out of the
mlno.
"But now comes my point Instead
of committing the usual follies that poor
men indulge in when they become sud
denly very rich , Mike sot about to got
the highest benefits of his wealth.
There lived in Helena an English lady ,
widow of an English olllcor , who was
possessed of n high dogrco of culture
and refinement , though in very
needy circumstances. Well , sir , the
first thing Mike did was to go
to this lady nnd bargain for nn
education. Ho placed hlmsolf absolutely
under her dict-itlon ; lived in the same
house , nnd she taught him how to hold
a knlfo nnd fork , how to eater and leave
a room. Then followed the rudiments
of a literary education nnd n year or so
of travel.
"I mot my Irish laborer in the parlor
of n London hotel about six months ago.
You never saw n more perfect gentle
man in your lifo. IIo has acquired n
classical education , is 119 easy nnd grace
ful in manners as u courtier , und nbovo
nil has the true Instlcts of n man nnd n
gentleman in his hoart. And could n
man bo anything but a gentleman who
had evidently made it the dream of his
lifo to bo ono at his first opportunity ? "

It Dntci from Andrew .Tuoknon'n Time lint
Only Took Krnl Shape In 1H50.
Political cnricnturo in the United
States virtually dates from the first ad
ministration of Andrew Jackson , sajs
the Century. There had been occasional
olTorts to use caricature us a political
weapon previous to that time , but they
wore too crtulo in execution , too spasmodic
medic in appearance and too indoflnito
in purpose to bo taken into consideration
in tracing the beginnings of our modern
school. The advent in national politics
of so robust a personality as General
Jackson seems not unnaturally to have
stimulated n resort to pictorial
moans for both assailing and dofondiny
him. IIo had entered the prosidoncg
as the savior of his country , a military
hero of indomitable vnlor. His light
against the U. S. bank , his vociferous
and unceremonious methods of conduct
ing controversies with political oppon
ents , the subservient conduct of his
famous " " dissolution
"kitchen cablnont" and its
solution when Van Buron withdrew from
it , had combined during his first terra
to enhance greatly his attractvonoss ! as
a popular idol. Ho appeared before
the people as tbolr only champion
against the oppressive designs of a
huge money monppoly in which the
whole world was joined. IIo was the
"people's friend" in all crises , the giant
who , slnglo-immied , was fighting their
battles against enemies from nil quar
ters. Every conspicuous act of his pub
lic lifo was performed nmld uproar and
turmoil. Even when his "kitchen cab
inet" was dissolved there was so much
dramatic dissurbauco that ono of the
political caricatures of the time pictured
him , armed with n churn-dnshor , clear
ing the kitchen of all opponents as with ,
the very bosom of destruction.
In the United States the many figured
group cartoon appears to have boon a
steady favorite since Jackson's timo.
Its undoubtedly
immediato'lnspirors wore
edly Gillray and John Doyle , moro es
pecially the latter , whoso sketches had
boon ' tilling the shop windows of London ,
for'two years when similar productions
began to appear on this side of the
water. Doyle had followed Gillray nt iv
considerable distance , however , for ho
was afar Inferior artist in everyway ,
having slight perception of humor and
being hard and inflexible in his meth
ods. What Doyle did was to take Gill-
ray's occaslonall act of giving a correct
hkonosa and make it his own perma
nent practice. His sketches are valua
ble today chiefly for this quality , all
his drawings of loading mon of
the period bointr veritable portraits
traits of real historic value , some
of them the best in existence. Our oirly
American political caricaturists followed
Doyle's example us faithfully as their
powers as draughtsmen would permit.
That they did not succeed very well in
the beginning , the Century thinks , was
not strange. , Drawing was scarcely
taught at all in this country at the time ,
and the only persons who wore skilled
in it had drifted here from abroad and
had little hnnwlp-rifn of nur nnllllrm nnel
public men. It was only in very rare
instances , therefore , that n lithograph
caricature of an earlier date than 1840
can bo found which is oven tolerable ,
either in conception or execution. There
was a slight improvement after that
periodund by 1850 a sulllciont advance
had booh made'to-justify'tho assertion
that the foundation of'a school of Amer
ican political eaciwiUiro had boon laid.

Humanity it continually nt war against
itself , without ever having taken time
to reflect and nak the reason why. It
opens its veins for the simple pleasure
of seeing its noble blood flow , blood that
is always young and continually re
newed. How many men are destroyed
by war In a century ? Asks the Cincin
nati ! Commercial Gazette. Oflleial re
ports and documents presented in the
best accredited historical treatises
enable us easily to calcuc'ato the number
of soldiers who have been killed or who
have died during modern wars.
Thus , for example , wo know
that during the unaccountaolo Franco
German war of 1870-71 250,000 victims
wore slain on the two sides ; that during
the useless Crimean war of 1854-M
785,000 were slain ; that during the
short Italian-war of 1859 03,000 men foil
on the field of battle or died in hos
pitals ; that the game of chess between
Prussia nnd Austria in 18(50 ( deprived
40,000 individuals of lifo ; that in the
United States the strife between the
north and south caused the death of
450,000 men in 1800-01 ; wo know also
that the wars of the first empire poured
out the blood of 6,000,000 Europeans , and
moreover that Franco has taken up
arms twenty times since 1816. On ndd-
ing the number of victims of war during
the last century a total of 19,840,900 is
reached simply in the olvilizcd countries ,
of Europe and in the United States.

It was the greatest day in the history
of old Windham since the famous frogs
noisily emigrated from Windham Pond
at midnight , scared the citizens out of
their wits with the idea that the town
waa assailed by Indians , and became
historical in u Now Englnnd opera.

President Hnrrison tia a Worker.
President Harrison's method of work
ia cool , systematic and constant. Ho is
a sensitive man , but ho is not u man of
nervous temperament IIo wastes
neither time nor onnrgy in fretting , is
never fussy , nnd never in a hurry to
finish up things at the last moment Ho
has not lost a day by illness since ho en
tered the white house , and his work has
never bcon delayed twenty-four hours.
He is too methodical to put off or leave
work unfinished. The president begins
his day's work at 9 o'clock , with his
private secretary disposing of corres
pondence , and there is little to which
ho does not give his personal attention.
IIo goes right through with it like a
man who has work that must bo done
nnd there is nothing moro to bo said
about it. In much the same way the
president goes through with the business
of seeing sonatorfo and representatives
every morning. Ho has no "small talk- "
and no words not to the point , but
briefly "says his say" and does not re-
repeat himself. At no time during his
olllco Hours ( toes no lese nis train oi
thought on the day's work. IIo carries
M with him , and no interruptions by
visitors break the lino. This preoccu
pation is much of the reserve people
complain' of and criticiso.
