It Is doubtful It Omaha has another In
stitution In the common prldo of which Its
people tihuro as la Its public library, but
while tho greatest proof of this Interest is
In their liberal patromigu of Its privileges,
It affords many advantages of which tho
great majority of tho reading public knows
llttlo or nothing. Not tho least In Impor
tance among thcito features aro tbo col
lection and circulation of books published
In foreign languages.
Of theso thero aro In all over 1,000 vol
umes, all of which, with the exception of
a very few, nre substantially bound, whllo
the makeup of somo of tho reference works
Is exceptional for Its excellence. Asldo
from the reference works there nro three
collections that aro In constant circulation.
Theso aro separately catalogued nnd In
cludo about SOO volumes of Kronen, Her
man, Swedish end n few Spanish and Ital
ian books, mostly popular standard novels
corresponding to tho popular English liter
ature of that class so widely circulated.
Tho French nnd Herman collections wero
stnrtcd about eight years ago by donations
from patrons of tho library of books col
lected during their travels. At that ttruo
thero wero a great many French students
In tho city and at their request nnd from
llstH prepared by them tho Library board
made Its first purchase of French books.
At about tho namo tlmo a number of tho
Gorman residents of the city presented a
similar request. loiter they submitted a

To this collection they have been adding
ever since. Tho Swedish collection was
Goethe," an annual publication, glviug In

also full In statistics of tho foreign coun

regarding nil the educational Institutions
nnd societies of the world. It is not trans
lated Into any other language nnd con
tains Information that canuot be had In
anv other nubllcatlon. Naturally It Is
widely consulted. Another interesting
work Is Meyer's "Conversation Lexicon,"
ti revised version of ono of the first en
cyclopedias published.
Two volumes of Ovcrbcck'a "Orlcchlschc
I'lastlk," or Grecian sculptors, with a few
other minor works, complete tho Herman
collection.
A work for which there Is a great de
mand and which tho board will probably
provide soon Is "Larousse Dictionary Uni

the most complete dictionaries and en
cyclopedias published. It Is in twelve vol
umes and especially valuable for Its brief

Noted Wrlten In ThHr Own l.niiKiiftKr.
The French collestion Includes about 200
volumes, the greatest part of which Is Ac
tion. Somo of them aro translations from
other languages, but tho most popular
books aro the works of Ilalzac, Daudot,
nourget, Dumas mil Hugo. There Is also a
largo demand for tl.o French magazine
ltevtio des Deux Mondes, a fortnightly pub
lication which is circulated for seven days.
Theso books aro used almost entirely by
French ntudents.
Tho Herman collection Is superior to tho
French and comprises about 400 volumes,
fully !C0 of which nro novels. Among tho
authors aro Kbors, Frcytng, Hoysc, Marlltt
nnd Splelhngon. Chiller's works aro also
popular. Theso books circulated largely
among the Hermans of the city. Tho re
mainder of tho collection Is composed of
about 100 volumes of heavier works, for
which there Is little demand, as tho ma
jority of those who would .read them find
their English translations more convenient,
and the Investment hnB proved bomcthlns
of a disappointment. Thero Is considerable
demand for tbo Herman magazine Die Har
tcnlnube, which circulates after the first
month It Is In.
The Swedish collection contains only
about 160 volumes, but their circulation Is
almost twice that of any of tho others. It
is composed entirely of fiction nnd Is used
by tho Swedish speaking people of the city.
A peculiar feafuro of this circulation Is
the popularity of tho French and English
translations, a fact which has excited com
ment owing to tho wide difference in tho
tastes and environment of the people.
Dumas i3 widely read. Among the bwedUh
authors there Is greatest demand for
Slgturd, Ingeraann, Llndblad, Starback,
Trolle, Wottcrbergh and Wrancr.

nro volumes that nre not generally found
In public libraries. These, especially among
tho French, aro not generally used at pres
ent, as thero are few French students.
Owing to their fine Illustrations, however,
they nre vnluable to all students.
Among theso French reference works Is
a collection of four volumes, by Margry, on
tho discoveries and explorations of the
French along tho Ohio and Mississippi
rlveis. Thef.o are especially valuable to
the students of American history. Thore
Is another collection of six volumes, by
Itaclnet, on historic costumes and house,
decorations of tho various periods. Tho
Illustrations arc exceptionally linn and are
rcltnble authority on tho subjects treated.
TheBO aro used chlclly by persons wishing
accurate Information and arc so complete
as to glvo dellnlto Ideas even to those who
cannot read the description. A collection
especially valuable to artists and art stu
dents consists of twelvo volumes dealing

"Whoso going to be Mr. Johnson's sec

"Second!" exclaimed his mother. "What

"Well, It's tho same thing, Isn't It?" de
manded tho small boy, Innocently.
"Say, pa, what does animadversion
mean?"
"Animadversion? Just wait a mlnuto,
my boy, and I'll look It up."
"You needn't mind, pa. I only wanted to

A now boy had come to school fresh from

Why Take Omirrii llitliiintr f
"Hut why not take I ho owners' estimate?
If every owner, wns to gle nn honest
statement of his belongings nnd their val
ues, this would be all right, but somehow
or other It Is my experlenco that a very
great many of the owners try to hldo or
keep the assessor In the dark as to much
of their property, and lu some cases deny
having such and such an article, when In
qulto a number of such instances In somo
accidental way or other It camo to my
Knowledge thnt the statements mado were
not according to fact. I was mot every
whero amongst the wage-earning portion
of tho citizens those hnving tho smallest
amount of personal property that they
wero being ovcrasscssed and were bearing
moro than their proper share of taxation;
lu fact wero paying the rich peoplo's taxes.
When I asked them how they camo to
know this, tho reply usually was: 'Did I
not read the newspapers?' This being their
belief they naturally tried to havo tho val
uation of their property mado as low as
possible. Thoso holding more property had
similar objections to giving real values, and
so on all tbo way up to higher values,
everyono having tho Idea that his neigh
bor was getting off easier than himself. Tho
result Is that tho values given by many of
our citizens In their returns aro simply
ridiculous nnd much unpleasant work de
volves on our tax commissioner In an en
doavor to havo every one assessed as ho
should bo.

"I enjoyed exceedingly going around and
making calls on close on to 1,000 house
holders in my district. Tho great bulk of
them gavo mo a courteous reception. In a
few cases I could hear tho key turn In tho
lock by those Inside, they not wishing to
havo a visit from tho man with tho well
known book under his arm. However, I
always managed to steal a march on tbcm
at somo other time,
"The professor has styled this assesslug
of personal property 'a mere farce. Curious
enough, during the tlmo I havo been assess
Ing I havo given It the name name so
much personal property wo know nothing
of nnd so much Is undervalued. For In
stance, the most of tho horses I ran
across wero In tho owner's estimation old
nines: watches wero mostly old nnd of
little vnluc, nono had watches with solid
gold cases; hardly a fnirly new sowing ma.
chlno or good piano was to be found in nil
my rounds. Diamonds nnd Jewelry there
wero none; silverware ditto.
Only One' llua .Money In Hunk,
"Strango to say, although our Omaha
banks make their reports bear tho great
Increase In their dcpoblts, I only struck ono
man a manufacturer that had auy money
In bank. I mado up my mind I had struck
one honest man, and several I havo men
tioned this incident to remarked ho must
bo a simpleton. This same man, in the most
careful manner, besides showing mo his
bank book, figuring out over months to
ascertain tho average amount of his bal
anco In bank, added up tho sums duo to
hira, nnd after deducting tho bad and Ir
recoverable credits, gavo me tho balance to
enter In his schedule.
"Although thero aro unpleasant things
about an assessor's work, It gives fine op
portunity of studying character and I en
Joyed It In this respect. In connection with
this honest man (sonre people called slm.
ploton) I observed he could look me In tho
faco when giving his figures.
"I could relalo many amusing, Inughable
Incidents that happened, but there Is not
tlmo for this.
"Some othor moda of taxation must be
found out. Incomo tax has been spoken
of, but the same objection pertains to this
niodo of assessing. I havo had tho experi
ence of It In that part of Oreat Hrltaln
callod Scotland, nnd under statements wero
mado thero also, and although these were
mado under oath. I havo found that thosj
-hr toil lies In ordinary affairs will do
tho eamo oven under oath, especially when
many get it Into thoir heads thero Is no
sin in making every endeavor to escape
taxation.

Important Announcement.
THE AMERICAN NEWSPAPER ASSOCIATION today makes an announcement of moro than ordi
nary interest. Uy special arrangements with the publishers of that greatest of all referenco works
the Hncyclopedia Hritannica we are able to place that king of books within easy reach or
every nally He reader. 1'or moro than one hundred years tho hncyclopedia Urltannica
has occupied tho foremost rank as a self-educator and work of reference through its
various revisions and additions during that interval. 1 he crowning success now comes
in the edition we offer, which is the large type, wide margin,
New 20th Century Edition.
which is even more extensive, and therefore more desirablo than tho
latest costly Edinburgh edition, and we arc able to supply tuny Ilea
readers for a short time at'
Much Less Than Half the Cost.
That some sort of an Encyclopedia is a necessity all
must acknowledge. That the great Hritannica is the
very best none will deny. It is an Encyclopedia
in which each principal subject is treated by
an acknowledged authority upon that sub
ject. No other Encyclopedia has given
Ten Thousand Dollars for a Single
Article, nor Six Hundred Dollars
a Page for written matter. Tho
fact that J.I, 000, 000 were ex
pended in its preparation,
