KEEL FOR NEW DEFENDER CAST
Over Six Mourn In Occupied In SliuplliK
t'p tlic; .Ninety Tons of
.Mollcn Metal.
HRISTOIj. R. I., Dee. 22. The keel for tho
new cup defender was Htircotufully cast at
tho Herreihoffs' shops thU afternoon. The
actual work of canting the great mass of
upward or ninety tons took six nnd a half
hours and was done at tho south shop. The
tires wero lighted under tho two melting
pots betweon 4 and 5 o'clock this morning,
the kettles having been previously lllled
with the pigs of lead. Nat llerreshoff gave
the order to turn the" valves which led the
metal to run from the pots Into tho keel
mould at 7:20 this morning. During the
progress of the work everything went on
smoothly nnd the portion of tho craft which
lias so Important a bearing on It In tho
water was completed at 1:30 this nfternoon,
when the order was given to cease jvourlng
tho metal. Abn:it live totm of pig lead were
yislerday placed In tho keel and theso tiro
now llrmly embedded In tho molten metal.
Klnbnrato preparations had been made
for this morning's work mid thcro wen
largo gaugu of workmen, each assigned a
special lino of duty, which they attended
to with tho utmost precision. During tho
proress of tho pouring thero were threo
men on a platform overlooking tho keel,
whoso duty It was to guurd against any
Imperfections In tho way of craelts made
by tho uneven distribution of the mo ton
metal nnd to seo that air bubbles were not
allowed to form. Hose lines wero In readi
ness ns a guard against accident, but for
tunately thero was no necessity for their
use.
It will take nbout two days for tho keel
to cool HUHIcIc titly to allow men to work on
It, but nothing will bo done with It until
Wednesduy, when the sanil In the wooden
frnmn will bo removed nnd later tho planks
will bo pulled nwuy. The next process will
bo tho cleaning of tho keel, and when nil
foreign substances have been removed and
tho sides polished a day and a hn'.f will
havo been consumed. Tho holes to cngngu
thn bolts and other llttlngs will next occupy
tho attention of tho builders. Some Iron
rods aro already In place In tho keel.
Tho mould Is In tho shape of a skiff about
thirty feet long. It Is pointed nt both ends
nml bulges out In tho center.
In connection with tho overboard nortlon
of the defender thero was much ado In the
I construction shop, to which building a large
amount of the angle Irons wero carried
today from tho blacksmith shops. The

South Omaha News .
Tho legal department of tho city scored
a victory In Judgo Haxtcr'B court yester
day, which means a great deal to the finan
cial end of the muub Ipallty. It wnu In the
cpso of Lawrence- Connor, who sued thu
city with a view to recovering about 11,000
which ho had paid on special assessments
for tho paving of Twenty-fourth street.
When tho enso was brought to tho atten
tion of tho Judge tho city demurred to tho
petition. Tho cnao was argued and sub
mitted four weeks ago, but a decision was
not rendered until yesterday.
Judge Baxter held that tho tax In ques
tion was not paid under protest; thnt It
was n voluntary payment nnd that tho mcro
fact that tho city treasurer certified tho tax
to tho county treasurer was not coercion in
law to make tho payment of tho tax In
voluntary. Tho court further held thnt the
taxes wero not nssessed for an Illegal or
unauthorized purposo and that It made no
dlffcrcnco with tho fucts In tho caso thnt
tho assessment had previously been de
clared void. Continuing Judgo Ilnxter said
that tho party who sought relief of this
kind wa3 bound to pttrsuo tho statutory
remedy by filing n protest.
It Is thought that this decision will un
doubtedly put n stop to tho bringing of
other suits whoro money has been paid on
speclnl assessments nntl tho assessments
afterwards declared void.
City Treasurer Koutsky figures (bat this
decision of Judgo Ilaxter means a gain for
South Omaha of about $150,000, as other
suits of n similar naturo were to bo filed
Immediately after tho decision In tho Con
nor case. Had tho court held against the
city tho treasury would havo been depleted
In tho refunding of these special taxes. City
Attornoy Lambert seems to think that Bomo
of tho attorneys who havo been annoying
tho municipal ofllccrs with theso suits will
let up now, as tho decision of Judgo Ilax
tci Is corrlplcto In all Its details and Is
a decision rendered In nccordanco with the
law.
Occupation Tux SnuKPdt eil.
In speaking of municipal affairs yester
day R. A. Carpenter, who served four years
ns city clerk and who Is hero from Ilutte,
Mcnt., to spend tho holidays with his
mother, snys that In Montana thcro 1b a
leglslallvo ennctment for tho lovylnr; of
r,n occupation tax on all lines of business.
This tnx, ho says, Is payablo quarterly and
thnt tho nuthorltlcs seo to Its collection.
Tho assessment Is rando on a basis of tho
business transacted tho preceding year.
For Instance, grocery stores pay from $23
to $50 a yenr nnd meat markets about $25
a year. "Of course tho mines nro In
cluded," said Mr. Carpenter, "and from
theso n largo revenuo Is derived. As far
ns I can seo tho levying of this occupation
tax docs not work n hardship upon any of
tho merchants. It really reduces tho tax
ation, as tho levy Is consequently mado
lower. This occupation tnx Is levied all
over tho stato and Is collected by tho city,
county nnd stato the same as other taxes."
This inntter wns brought to tho atten
tion of Mayor Kelly Inst night nnd ho np
penrcd to bo heartily In favor of tho plan.
Ho Bald that on account of the Incrcaso In
tho saloon licenses next spring the city
would bo tho loser by nbout $18,000 and
soino menns would havo to bo adopted to
nuke P ns much of this nmount ns pos
sible. Tho mayor took n tab of paper and
a pencil and went to work to figure a lit
tle, with this result: Saloons, $50 np'lece,
$3,500; tho packers, $300 each, $1,500; tho
stock yards, $300; grocery stores, $10 crfch;
live stock commission firms, $10 each;
clothing stores tho snmo nnd tnllor shops
$5. Drug stores wero marked down for
$23 npleco nnd undertakers nt $10. Restau
rants will havo to pay tho same an under
takers. Including other Items of smaller
moment It Is figured thnt nbout $7,000 can
bo realized, providing tho tnx Is properly
collected the snmo ns other taxes. Very
likely tho council will tnko this mater up
nt tin enrly date.
Dnrlnir Holdup In finulli Omnlin.
Frank Hart, a grocer doing business In
Knst Albright, was held up about 9 o'clock
Inst night nnd In tho scrlmmngo was quite
severely Injured. Mr. Ilnrt wns In his
aloro nlono at tho tlmo when threo men
with white handkerchiefs entered nnd held
htm up nt tho point of their revolvers,
Hart was so badly frightened that ho dis
regarded tho instructions of tho leader of
tho gang and lustily called for help. This
bo angered ono of tho robbers that ho struck
Hart a stunning blow on tho head, which
felled him to tho floor. t soon ns tho
blow had been struck tho robbers, evi
dently becoming frightened, ran away with
out stopping to tourh the till. Ono shot
was Ilred by one of tho robbers, but tho
bullet did not strlko HnrU A doctor who
wns called to attend Hart expressed tho
opinion that tho skull of hlB patient had
liecn fractured nnd that tho Injury might
possibly provo serious.
A llttlo over a year ago Hnrt wns held
up by a man who entered tho storo to pur
chaso n. jmckngo of cigarettes. When Hnrt
wns ongngod In making chango ho wns
struck on tho head and slightly Injured.
In this case ho wns nblo to lvo a fair de
scription of tho robber, but Inst night ho
wns so badly frightened that ho did not
notice- even tho color of tho clothing worn
by tho robbers, Chlof Mitchell Is giving tho
best of nttentlon to tho case, but without
any description to work on ho Is at sea ns
to tho Identity of tho robbers.
IliistlliiK Money fur l'nllep.
Several members of tho city council, along
with tho mayor, got together yesterday for
tho purposo of devising ways ond means
for tho payment of tho Bnlnrles of firemen
nnd policemen. It wns reported that ono
of the banks would tnko tho claim of theso
employes of the city and pay them monthly
until tho next levy Is available, providing
that It wns given somo security. Tho point
In question was what security tho city
could give tho bank, nnd this matter has
not fully been decided upon yet. Ofllccrs of
tho city are bringing every Inftuenco pos
sible to bear In order that theso Hcrvnnts
of tho people may havo n llttlo Christmas

Ilurdly ii h Modern mi Invention iin linn
Horn Supposed.
Barely fifteen years havo elapsed,
says (Joo.l Words, slnco tho automatic coin-tn-tho-slot
machino Ilrst appeared la public
places to supply customers with cigarettes,
matches, chocolates, sweetmeats, stationery,
etc.; while la Its latest phase this coatrlv
nnco In conjunction with a lighted street
lamp has been mado available for the
automatic purveyance of hot water and hot
drinks. Surely, It may bo thought, this
oxtremoly utilitarian Invention can only
have been duo to tho Ingenuity of tho pres
ent generation; anil It Is, therefore, start
ling to learn that tho automatic machino Is
ono of tho oldest projects In everyday uso,
Mnco It was known a century beforo Christ,
being tho Invention of that great mathema
tician, Hero of Alexandria, who llourlshoil
H. C. 117-S1.
Iloro Invented what ho termed a "sac
rlllclal vesbel which Hows only when
money Is Introduced," and n full descrip
tion of this apparatus Is contained In his
famous treatise, on pneumatics, reissued by
Thevenot, royal librarian, to I.ouls XIV of
1'Tonco In tho yenr 1CJ2. "If Into cortain
sacldelal vepsels a coin of llvo drachms bo
thrown, water or wlno shall How out and
surround them." so runs tho postulate.
Tho explanation of tho mechanism inside
tho vnso was very simple; tho vessel con
tains another holding tho wine, nnd near
to tho latter Is placed n vertical rod about
which turns a wcll-bninnccd benin. When
tho coin Is dropped through tho siot It frills
on ono end of this horizontal beam, whl.-h,
being depressed, opens a valve suspended
from a chain nt tho other end, and tho
wlno commences to flow out through a ylpe.
