Tho question. "Resolved, that the act of
rcngland In depriving tho Doer of their
freedom Is not Justifiable," was discussed
at Trinity cathedral Saturday evening by a
society of deaf mutes culling themselves the
Hyo and I land club. After struggling with
tho subject for twenty minutes tho Judges
decided In favor of the negative, which was
equivalent to awarding tho honors to the
champions of Knglnud. The Judges, ap
pointed by President W. L. Parish, were
Waldo Hotbert, Hussell Smith and Floyd
Hhlloy. Tho disputants wore: Afllrmntivo,
Maggie Smith nnd Charles Hartman; nega

AT FIKST (JLANCE
It Would Appear Tlmt I.ocil Homo
illoi Would lie Hon! for
Cure n( Catarrh.
It would seem at hrot glance that catarrh,
being a dlscaso of the mucous monibruuu,
that fcalves, sprays, etc., being applied dl
rcctly to tho membranes of tho nose and
throat, would bo tho most ratlonnl treat
ment, but this lias been proven not to bo
true.
Tho mucous membrane is made and re
paired from tho blood and catarrh Is n
blood dlseaso and any remedy to make u
permanent euro must net on tlio blood, nnd
when tho blood Is purified from catarrhal
poison, the secretions from the mucous
mcmbrniio will become natural and healthy.
In this cltmato thousands of peoplo seem
scarcely over frco from somo form of en
' tn ri ll ; lb gets hotter at times, but each win
ter becomes grudually deeper seated and
after a time the sufferer resigns himself to
It us a necessary evil.
Catarrh cures arc almost as numerous as
catarrh sufferers, hut nro nearly all so In
convenient and Ineffective ns to render tholr
iiso a uulsanca nearly as annoying its eti
tnirb Itself; anyone who has used douches,
sprays and powders will bear witness to
their Inconvenience nnd failure to really
cure.
Thcro nro a number of excellent Internal
remedies for catarrh, put probably tho best
and certainly tho safest Is a new romedy,
composed of Kucalypfol. Hydrastis, Ban
gutuarla aud other valuable catarrh spe
cifics. This remedy Is In tablet form, pleasant
to the taste and sold by druggists under tho
iiomo of Stuart's Catnrrh Tablets, and any
one suffering from cntnrrh may uso theso
tablets with absolute assurance that thoy
contain no cocaine, opiate nor any poison
ous mineral whatever.
A leading druggist In Albany, speaking of
ratarrh cures, says: "I havo sold various
rntarrh cures for years, but havo never sold
any which gavo such general satisfaction as
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets. They coutnln In
a pleasant, concentrated form all tho best
and latest catarrh remedies, and catarrh
sufferers who havo used douches, sprays and
salves hnvo been astonished at tho quick
relief and permanent results obtained after
n week's use of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets."
All druggists sell full sized packages (or

TAX LEVY FOR THE SCHOOLS
Foard of Education Will Ask for Six and a

QUESTION DISCUSSED AT SPECIAL MEETING

Tit nt I i ii
Six and ont-hnlf mills Is the levy which
the Hoard of Education will ask of the
city council for school purposes. This was
tho decision of twelve members nf tho
board who attended n special mooting held
yesterday nfternoon. Theodore Johnson, C.
E. lllnck nnd Dr. Frederick F. Teal are tho
threo members who were not present.
A speclnl committee from the Commer
cial tiub appeared before the board and
requested that the levy ho kept down to 4
mills, the amount levied last year for
school purposes. Two hours were spent
In discussing n possible retrenchment, but
after tho arguments were Mulshed the re
port of the finance committee recommend
lug tho fiV4-rrilIl levy was adopted prac
tically without opposition. J. J. Smith
moved to reduce the proposed lovy 'i mill,
but fulled to get n second to his motion.
Euclid Martin wns chairman of tho com
mittee from tho Commercial club and made
tho first uddress to tho Hoard of Educa
tion. Ho urged that It Is necessnry to
keep taxes down to tho lowest posslblu
figure nnd on behalf of tho manufacturing
nnd Jobbing Interests of tho city requested
the strictest economy conjlstent with tho
welfare of tho schools.
W. S. Poppleton suggested that the school
year bo reduced to nine mouths. Ho ar
gued that n shorter year would be better
for pupils nnd a great having to taxpayers.
Hy careful mntiiigetnout he maintained that
the board can run the srhools successfully
on i mills a year nut! keep them up to the
stundnrd maintained by other cities tho
slzo of Omnhn.
Addresses were nlso made bv John E.
Utt, C. F. Weller. W. S. Wright. W. II.
Orcen, Victor II. Caldwell. E. M. Andree
scn, Herman Kouutze and Wurd M. llurgess.
All of these men agreed with tho senti
ments expressed by Messrs. Poppleton nnd
Mnrtln nnd emphasized the bad effect which
nn excessive levy would havo on persons
who are thinking of Investing In Omnhn
property.
Comparative statements of tho amount of
mouey different cities spend In maintain
lug their schools wero produced. These
comparisons showed that In the year 1S99-
H'00 Omaha spent $31.01 per pupil. Knn
sns City, St. Joseph nnd St. Paul conducted
their schools at loss expense, while Los
Angeles, Denver and many other cities
maintained schools at greater cost.
President Hayward. Superintendent
Penrse and several members of the hoard
spoko In defense of tno recommendation
of tho finance committee, nnd roiiowed tho
items which make necessnry tho increased
expenditures.
Mr. Poarso stated that ho would be will
ing to submit to a vote of tho parents of
pupils the question of reducing the school
year to nine months. When the school
yenr was shortened on a former occasion
tho superintendent heard many objections
anil ha says that ho la confident that tho
parents of the city favor nlno months of
school.
In tho school yenr of 1S89-1890 the ex
penditures for each pupil was $31.40. For
tho year of U92-1S03 It reached $39. II',
while In 1S9C-1S97 the nmount fell to $28.31
per .pupil. During tho latter year many
pupils were permitted to attend school
only ono-half day on account of tho grent
reduction made In the teaching force.
Tho total nmount of money expended by
tho Hoard of Education In 1900 wns $IG7,
318.39, whllo the estimated expenditure for
1901 Is $522,030. During 1900 teachers' sal
aries amounted to $260,623.84 nnd for 1901
thoy will be $?06,000. Tho schools began
so late this year that tho salaries for only
nine mouths wero paid In 11)00. Thli
throws ten months into 1001 and explains
tho Increase in tho amount paid to teach
ers. Tho other Item which shows a marked
Increase Is tho expenditure for construction.
It Is estimated that $25,000 will bo neces
sary for this purpose In 1901, while only
nbout $13,000 was set aside In 1900.

Tho Omaha Street Hallway company Is
preparing to extend tho Tenth street car
lino to Hlverviow park. Only threo blocks
of track are necessary, and the work will
bo done by tho tlmo the forthcoming park
season opens.
This should be welcome Information to
such of the city's population as delights
to "commune with nature," for no more
picturesque spot can bo found within a day's
rldo of Omaha than ltlvervlew park. It
abounds In high bluffs, rugged promontor
ies, deep, winding gullies and groves of
grand old trees. And not tho least at
tractive feature of this reservation to per
sons of a romantic turn is that It Is largely
an unexplored tract. Ilelng dlirtcult of ac
cess hcrctoforu to tho thousands of park
frequenters lucnuso several blocks of hard
walking Intervened between It nnd tho car
lino It has been varied by comparatively
few mvo ambitious bicycle riders nnd rab
bit hunter:-.
Its grass carpets aro not Uttered with
the paper box nnd tin can evidence nf plc
nliing parties, nor has tho landscape
gardener profaned It with little brldgos,
"summer houtos" or flowerbeds mathe
matically correct In outline. A person with
an Imagination would have no trouble In
losing himself in tho deep shado of Its
groves and convincing himself thnt ho was
tho first whlto person to sot foot therein.
Within ten minutes, ride on the street
car from tho I'nlon depot, ltlvervlew park
Is a verltablo "enchanted domain," with a
surprise at every turn, and Is nbout ns
decisive a chnnge from tho urban to the
rurul os one Is likely to find In tho middle
west, which Is generally supposed to ho
monotonous. Hut hero Is variety enough
to suit tho most fastidious. Ono moment
midst the smoke and smells and noises of
tho city, tho next reveling in primeval
woods and glades that would mnlto a lit
subject of n canvas by Claude. Amid such
surroundings ono easily forgets that within
a quarter of a milo Is nn electric street
enr lino leading to a town whuro horizontal
dlstanco Is measured by blocks and ver
tical distance, by Moors.
"Hlverviow" Is a happy name for this
bit of landscape. To tho casual visitor It
will not bo npparent nt first, but If any
thero be, who doubts thnt It commands a
view of tho river lot him wnlk eastward
from tho lake, climb tho gradual slope
toward tho coppice of second growth timber
that skirts Its summit, and then search for
tho brldlo path that leads through It. Let
him follow this path, taking caro that tbo
Interwoven branches overhead do no damage

until he comes to the sununlt of a steep
uiuu. uuie me umoer leaves off abruptly,
nnd before him opens a panoruma of river,
low lands, p.tsturo. jsIiIi -farms, and Turin

view that tho park takes Its name.

Tho ItUerests of the Oliver company aro

that country In 1S72, exploring svlth n slow
to opening up tho fields. In 18S7 he becamo
connected svlth the Cnmeglo Interests and
ten years lutor became tho general i-inn-
agor of tho Oliver company, having super
vision over all of tho mining Interests of
both concerns.

"The mines now coutiolled by the com
pany." said Mr. Hulst, "Include tho ranges
nt Marquette. Menomomlo, Oogeblc, Vo"-
nillllon and Mlssabc, all In the Lake hu
porlor district. Tho output last year svas
large, reaching nbout 20.00u.000 tons, and
tho prospect Is for about the samo during
tho current yenr. The equipment of all or
tho ranges is up to the standnrd and no
special changes are anticipated during tho
coming summer. Tho fcaturo of the svork
of tho last season svas the Introduction of
tho eight new steamships owned by the
Hepsemer Steamship company, another of
tho many branches In svhlch the Carnoglo
capital has been organized. These 7,000
nnd 8,000-ton steaniors nro for tho Iron

hetsveen the upper and tho lower lako ports.
They give tho trodo a henvy ndvantugo In
the svay of quick- and suro transmutation
from tho upper lako ports, svhlthcr tho
oro Is brought by railroads, to the lower
ports, svhonco It Is carried by other roads
to tho eastern mills.
"Tho mining in tho Mlssabc raiigo is dono
mainly svlth huge stei.m shovels of the
samo character used in inllrond excava
tion nnd In sand nnd gravel pits. In fact
In dull Ecasons the oro shovels are fre
quently rented out for the heavier class of
railroad excavation. Ono of them svlll svclgh

heavy for tho ordinary run of excavating.
On this .range tho ore Hob about parallel
slth tho surface. Tho dirt stratum Is
first stripped off and then somo blasting Is
done to ninko openings whero the shovels
can tako hold. In all 'of tho other mines
tho svork Is underground, blasting and cart

"Owing to tho uso of the shovols nt Mls

"Mr. Carncglo has not forgotten these

Members of tho Hoard of education are
figuring on the revenue for ths year svhlch
sslll bo derived not only from tho taxes, but
from tho saloon licenses. Commencing
wllb the liquor licenses issued in the
sptlng the rate svlll bo $1,000, Instead of
J300, and the board estimates that not more
'ban tioveiity-tlvo saloons svlll bo In opera
tion on account of tho lucrenso in tho
license fee. In speaking of this matter
yestcrduy a svoll known saloon man said
that there svould bo not less than elghty
11 vo saloons, and If this Is so a revenue of
$85,000 Is assured to the school district.
This opinion Is bused on the fact that out
of tho ninety-four snloons now operating
in South Omaha all but about ten nro
owned by breweries. The bresverlcs Inter
ested, said this dealer In liquors, svlll not
let go of tho places they have In hand on
account of tho competition and only a
very few of the poor paying places svlll In
closed. Many of the buildings occupied
by saloons nre osvned hy tho breweries
nnd If any places tiro closed It svlll bo the
few rented buildings. As South Omaha is
steadily glowing tho demand for beer and
other liquors svlll Increase nnd thus keep
up tho number of saloons. Should tho city
council decide to Impose nn occupation tax
on all saloons of $200, tho niimo as Is now
Imposed, tho number of saloons may bo
decreased, but otherssise tho estimate of
eigbty-llvo saloons is considered conserva
tive. City olflclals say It Is hardly probable
that an occupation tax will bo Insisted
til on svhen Mho new license lnw becomes
effeitlve. However, If the proposed nosv
charter, svlth Its reported emergency
clause, becomes effective, very few of tho
pricent city officials will bo In a position
to havo a voice In the mnttor of nn occu
