OMAHA ATHLETIC OLTJB.
John 1. Itodlnk , tlio Surviving Member ,
Take * Wlmt Is I. oft.
The load which the now board of director
of the Omaha Athletic club has had t
carry for some time has proven too heavy
At a meeting of the Uoard yesterday after
noon it wns decided to end the uncertaint ;
by giving John I. Ucdick possession of th
property. The clul ) consequently passe
into the hands of Mr. liodiulc , who i
the only member of the clu
loft. Ho will hiivo an opportunit.
to punch the bag , swine the clubs and bow
in nil the alloys atunco if he so desires with
out the argus-cycU members laughing at hi :
mistakes. In fact it is the llrst tluiu in th
history of club life that : i "Club of One" ha :
really hail practical demonstration , nnd th
outcome will be watched with great iutcro ?
the country over , to bo emulated by the Van
dcrbilts , the Asters , the Droxcls nnd others
of like character should Mr. Hcdiuk's inno
vation prove successful.
In the course of n conversation , Mr. T. ti.
Ringwalt , secretary of the club , stated to a
BEK reporter : "The responsibility for the clos
ing of the club rests entirely with the de
linquent members , there baing nearly $ .VJO In
outstanding dues which it was an impossi
bility to collect. Hud wo been allowed a
month more I thinlr the club could have
tided over the summer nnd boon in excellent
condition by fall , but the directors felt that
the drain was too severe nnd having received
Air. Uediole's ultimatum of cither closing up
or standing a lawsuit it wns 'decided tn
Rive him possession under the lease.
The club is indebted to Mr. Ucdick In the
neighborhood of 52,000 for rent , heat nnd
inonoy advanced to make changes in the
structure.Vo nskcd him for an extension ,
believing firmly that the now board would
bo able to pull through , but ho replied that
the club had had time enough and wo did
the best wo could with his , demand staring
us in the face. Of course , the responsibility
rests upon the delinquent members , nearly
CO per cent of the membership owing from
one to three months on their dues.
"It is pretty hard to say what Mr. Redlck
will do with the building and paraphernalia.
Ho may organize n club himself or an effort
may bo made on iho part of some of the di
rectors to orpnnl/o a now club under a differ
ent name and take the prouorty. The out
look , however , is dismal , and I cannot oven
predict what will be done. I feel the sus
pension deeply.bccauso had I been a moneyed
nlan I would have advanced the money
necessary , hu' , that was out of the question ,
o I bimply quit with my associates. "

Several of the school teachers of Omaha
who have their earnings tied up in the

in the person of a prominent business man of
the city who has made thorn a gcncrou ?
proposition , but does not want his name
mentioned at present in this connection.
In order to maku it possible for these
teachers whose money Is tied up in the
broken h.init to enjoy the vacation they had
anticipated ho has offered to loan thorn fo.OOO
or any smaller amount that might be neces
sary to carry them all through , It will
bo loaned In small sums of
from > 0 to $150 to each
teacher without interest , nnd the
generous capitalist will not require any
security excepting the personal notes of the
fair borrow ors. Several of the teachers will
accept the proposition and will borrow sums
ranging from fT > 0 to 5100 each. It la prolmblo

Mr Scrlbncr did not think earnings ought
to be taken into consldor.itlon for the assess
ment of the bridge when all other property
is taxed on its viiluo without reference to
producing capacity. It is impossible to de
termine the exact earnings of the bridge
itself. The company estimate that they are
but onc-llfth of the not earnings shown in
the statement , that is , slightly over ? T)0,000. )
As to the question of indebtedness Mr.
Scribnor maintained that the debt had been
placed on the old bridge and ought not to bo
considered in connection \\ith the now
bridge which had supplanted It. IIo wanted
his company merely assessed nt n Just ratio
to these of other properties m tlio county.
This , ho thought , would bo correct if lixed
at JbO.OOO.
To iupiK > rt his assertion that the Union
Paelllc was not a tax shirker ho read some
llgurcs comparing the taxes paid by that
company and several other companies. Ac
cording to thcso the Union P.icillo paid
$ . " > 1'J 10 per mile on Us tracks in Nebraska ,
while the Chicago & Northwestern and Chi-
oauo , Milwaukee & St. Paul paid only
$311.75 and $1118.43 respectively per milo on
their trackage in Iowa.
Mr. John D. IIowo and Mr. Potter were
expected to present some testimony In the
case , but failed to appear.
"Doc" Smith was permitted to make a
statement. IIo said thac ut the rate the
Union Pacific wished the bridge assessed
they could cut on" the coupons from the
bonds that had been donated by the city , pay
their taxes in both counties , and have a neat
sum remaining. Ho protested against any
reduction of the listed valuation. As to the
$11,150 per mile valuation of the whole line ,
the government had given them u clear
strip of land so many miles wide through
the whole state ot Nebraska and had added
n bonus of $10,000 per mile. If the reduction
bo nude , he assured the commissioners that
an injunction would bo sought and sustained.
A bridge upon which $2,000,000 bonded in
debtedness existed appears ridiculous if
valued at only $100,000.
After Mr. Scribner repeated his explana
tion of the bonded indebtedness , the deeis-
on was deferred until a full meeting of the
board could be secured. The complaints of
the railways against the assessments put on
their property bid fair to become epidemic.
Mr. It. W. Pollard , the tax acrent of the B.
it M , , has tiled a petition asking that certain
lots in the Third ward , listed at $10.720 , bo
stricken from the rolls because already in
cluded as depot grounds in the valuation of
the state board. The Missouri Pacific is ob
jecting to its assessment on similar grounds.

The somewhat notorious real estate dlfll
: ulty , sprung hy the heirs of John P. Ilelfen-
teln of St. Louis in laying claim to an
equity iu over $2,000,000 worth of Omaha
.iroperty , was opened up for a hearing this
Morning before Judge Dandy.
The history of these cases has been given
several times In THE BEE , so It is only neccs-
sar.v to state that the parties briiiRing suit
are the heirs of a man who once bought a
sheriffs deed to a tract of 100 ncrcs of land
which has since been divided up into resi
lience additions to the city of Omaha , nnd is
known now as the Paulson , Dcnlso , Idlowild
and K V. Smith's and Heed's auditions to
this city.
Several hundred people are interested in
chtinff the claims of the Hclfcnstein heirs
and the case called is to ho talccn as a
test caso. It was brought against the heirs
of the late Hyron Heed and is defended by
them. Too defendants will attempt to show
Ihr.t the title held by Hobert Shields was
illegal , and therefore the sheriff's sale by
which ho lost his alleged title and Holfcn-
stein gained what ho claimed to bo a valid
deed was also illegal and of no account.
They will show title through another and
what they believe to bo a hotter source
ana oven if the Shields title is held to bo
good the Heed heirs hope to prove that the
sheriff's deed was illegal on account of ir-
rcKularttios , and that under the Shields
title us well as the Monoll title their rights
arc moro valid than any equity or right that
could possibly bo established by the Hclfen-
stoins. The case will bo watched with a
good deal of interest as it has been pending
for more than two years.

In loving memory of Jennie Casslday , the
Women's Christian Temperance union of
Omaha arranged for the distribution of
flowers at the j.ill ou Sunday , at 1 o'clock.
The ilowers were tastefully prepared in
small bouquets by the Kmg s Daughters of
the Second Presbyterian church and under
the personal supervision ot Mrs. J. B. Jar-
dlno presented to the prisoners. The flow
ers wore gratefully accepted and , If serving
no other purpose , gave the inmates of the
jail at least ono thought apart from their
own unfortunate position.
At the request of Mrs. .Tardlno she was ac
companied to the city prison by a delegation
from the Lutheran Woman's Missionary
convention consisting ot the following
named persons :
Mrs. Wolf , missionary fromGuntur , India ;

lowed by eloquent though brief addresses
by Mrs. Wolf of India. Mrs. Traver , Now
York , and Mrs. Jardino of Omaha. The
beautiful flower service closed with prayer
by Mrs. E. B. Scholl ot Baltimore.
The unhappy inmates in tlicir crowded ,
uncomfortable quarters , gave most respco' j

It unit Matters In Austrulli.
Father Madden of Melbourne , Australia
is stopping at the Murray hotel. IIo is on
his way to Chicago and thence to his eli :
home in Ireland , which ho left twelve years
ago to take up the work of the ministry in
Australia. IIo says that the financial con
ditions in Australia are-very feverish'and
uncertain at present. The.country has been
undergoing n sort of financial revolution foi
moro than a year. The depression began
with the strilco of tlio dock men and spreac
to nearly nil labor organizations in the coun
try. This was followed by financial strin
gency nnd finally an alarming failure ol
banks.
"Wo all believe that what are known a :
the associated banks will bo rcconstructei
on a firmer basis than ever , " said Father
Madden , "but financial matters in Mel
bourne looked very discouraging a few
months ago whin the banks were
going to tlio wall at the rate of two am
three in a day. Ihls is doubtless the resul
of the wild land boom that swept our
country two or three years ago. There was
an immense deal of English nnd Scotcl
money invested there at that time in land !
and lots , and as the excitement subsided i
became impossible for investors to get thoii
money out again. The pressure ovcntualli
reached the banks and the inevitable resul
followed. A\'heu \ matters are thoroughly re
constructed we shall move on again in gooc
shape. "

Hon. Cortez Salmon , superintendent of
public instruction of South Dakota , was in
the city Saturday night on his way to the
Black Hills to conduct an examination.
"Crops are looking splendid , " said Mr.
Salmon. "It is going to be a banner year for
us , I think. With the few exceptions of
cases where the seed was simply thrown nt
thofaco of the earth , there is going to bo n
big yield of all kinds of grain in every
agricultural county in the stnto ,
"Work is being rapidly pushed from Sioux
Falls to Yankton , and the indications point
to a revival of all interests that have lagged ,
and an increase in these that have hold
their own.
"The independent movement has lost n
good deal of ground , and continues to do so ,
and I don't think the third party will figure
to any extent in the next election , "
Mr. Salmon loft for the Hills on Sunday ,
and expects to return here in a few days.
You need not fear that the fireworks
will frighten your horses if you drive to
the beach tonight. It costs nothing to
put your hoi-bo under the sheds for that
mirpose. You never enjoyed anything
bettor than a trip to Courtland beach.
