At Its meeting yesterday the Board of County Commissioners decided to give Ed J. Brennan a warrant for half the amount due him for the construction of the South Omaha emergency hospital; to give the South Omaha Board of Health a war rant for the other half; to give the Douglas County Agricultural society no warrant at all; to give the finance committee power to do what it pleases In collecting" realty tax; and finally, to give Connolly and O'KeetTe opportunity to fight out. in committee of the whole, the battle for which each has buckled on his armor and offered up his prayer In a determination to annihilate tho other. Contractor Brennan. was on hand again and Colonel John B. Watklns ot the South Omaha Board of Health waa also there to aay things. Watklna bad attached bills for material to the documents In evidence and Brennan took exception to thla, declaring that he needed no guardian mixing In his ffalrs. After considerable talk of an acri monious nature the board pushed the ver bal combatants Into their respective cor ners and agreed to give Brennan a warrant for $469.40 and the South Omaha board one for 1488, the latter to pay Brennan this amount as aoon as disputed bills were agreed upon. Pampkln Show Tnrned Down. Chairman Ostrom of the committee of the whole reported adversely on the appli cation of John Armour as president and O. W. Hervey as secretary of the Douglas County Agricultural society for an appro priation from the county to assist In hold ing another fair In 1902. The committee report, which was unanimously adopted, reads In part: "We have given the matter careful consideration and believe that the holding ot the county fair In Douglas county la not of any special Interest to the agriculturists at large and that the cost of maintaining the same Is greatly In excess of the benefits derived therefrom. The request of the petitioners Is rejected and no appropriation to be made for the purposea of an agricultural exhibit In Douglas county In 1902." Connolly's Explosion Postponed. While the meeting was in progress the audlonce had been growing steadily In an ticipation of forensic fireworks when Mr. Connolly should make his predicted at tempt to tie up with the republican minor.

The reaolutlon cloaed by. Instruct ing the superintendent to discharge any who refuse to obey his orders, the board to Investigate and act in cases that are car ried to It by the discharged parllee. In explanation O'Keeffe said that the drugg'at wts employed to act aa male nurss alao, but that Blezek Is reported to be spending five or six hours a day in town "sparkln'." and to be Indifferent to the superintendent because the superintendent has been Intimidated by threats made by a certain member of the board. Connolly again felt called upon to say something, but the chair again Intervened with a ruling that the motion was put of order and it was oroppea. Concerning; County Taxes. ' Harte's resolution Instructing the finance committee to take such action to collect the delinquent realty tax aa it may de;m ncceasary was referred to the comml tee ot the whole, but It Is understood that It will pass and that the committee will start two collectors In tfce field to call upon dcl'nquents once or twice, after wh eh suit to "collect will b comn..mced.
