Brnl Prnpf rlf Oimm I, f oa
i alder Assessors Work.
I TV'. II. Oreen, president of the Resl Es
tate exf-hange, will call a meet In of
prominent property owners of the city for
Tuesday fior the purpose of discussing the
question erf the assessment of Omaha oroo
rty for state and county purposes.
' "I have been requested to call such a
meeting;" said Mr. Oreen. "by several of
the heawy property owners, and at the
neetlng we will discuss all phasea of the
Psessmrnt, but our particular purpose Is
'to ascertain some way of having the as
sessment made according to law. At the
present time the assessors, according; to
'previous agreements, are assessing all
property at one-alxtb of Its real value. The
law la positive on tbe point that property
fchould be assessed at Its fair cash value
fend the opinion of Referee Rvan backs uo
this view. The property owners who are
moving for this meeting are of tbe opinion
(that tbe law has been disregarded long
enough and that steps should now be taken
feo have It enforced.
I "Omaha Is not the only place where ucn
action la being taken. There ia a suit now
pending In Cheyenne county to settle thla
.question, and It looks as though the people
ft the state were beginning to reallie the
(renditions which exist In tbe revenue laws
kf the state.
' "The Real Estate exchange, having taken
flip the original tax fight, Is looked upon as
the organization which should push the
"whole matter, but the people who will be
present at the meeting Tuesday will un
doubtedly take steps toward providing the
Incwa of war. We do not expect to get
iwhat we want without a fight, and It may
tie necessary to enjoin tbe assessment. The
Assessors do not report until June, and
.here Is plenty of time for our work, but
(we want to be ready in time.
Will Art In Time.
1 "Part of our trouble in the present city
litigation came from the fact that we did
not act soon enough and we will avoid this
trouble In the present Instance. The meet
ing may result In the appointment of
committee to prepare the facts and secure
an opinion from some competent lawyer.
Then we will probably wait until the su
preme court acts upon the report of Judge
Ryan. If that report Is approved without
amendment we will then proceed to en
force the law. There Is a possibility, how
ever, that we will have to do nothing, as
the opinion of the supreme court may
make It Incumbent upon the assessors to
return valuos of 100 per cent and If this
Is done we will not be required to go Into
court."
Assessors on their own account are going
to put a question to tbe county commis
sioners which will require a decision In re
gard to the assessment laws of the state.
These assessors have decided to return for
assessment the property of railroads oper
ated entirely within the county, such as tbe
Belt line. According to the atatement of
one assessor: "This property upon the
basis of one-sixth of Its actual value la
probably worth $50,000 a mile. It will be
returned In one ward at least at $40,000
per mile. The road la operated entirely
within Douglas county and there Is no rea
con why the law should not be enforced.
I am going to do my duty In the matter and
If tho county commissioners desire to
change my assessment or to strike the prop
erty from the rolls they w.lll be the ones
to bear the onus of disregarding the plain
letter of the statute. The right over tax
natters la on now and should be fought to
a. flnlsb."

At Fort Leavenworth it was ascertained
that the Infantry quarters would be ready
by November, when that post can accom
modate a regiment of Infantry upon the
present footing. The quartera for the
Twentieth battery, field artillery, in pro
cess of construction at Fort Riley, will not
be ready until next January, and that bat
tery, which is now at Fort Robinson under
orders to proceed to Fort Riley, will go
into camp at tbe latter post until Its quar
ters are completed.
The returns of the department for the
term ending March 81 show the total num
ber of office's and men In the department
to be 4.11!), a larger number than at any
previous time since the Spanish wsr. Scv.
eral of the companies, however, are little
more than skeleton organizations and tha
number of men will probably be Increased
during the summer.
Lieutenant Bridges of the Twenty-second
regiment, now at Fort Crook, has been
ordered to report at headquarters of the
department April 16 for tbe purpose of be
ing examined for promotion.

TO PROSECUTE THE FATHER
Conaty Attorney Derides Not to Ac
cept Plea for loans
Kanfmanu. x
After another conference with Charles
F. Kaufmann, Deputy County Attorney Ab
bott and tho county attorney have con
cluded not to bring proceedings against
him, but to follow the original line of
prosecution of the young man's father,
Charles Kaufmann, accused by the Traders'
Insurance company of Chicago of embezzle
ment of about $2,100 of collections due It.
Attorney Abbott said: "Young Kauf
mann will not admit that he took the
money or any part of It, and that being
the case, we might be doing an injustice
In securing bis confinement In the peniten
tiary. It still seems to me that the real
trouble waa In the elder Kaufmann check
ing out too much of his agency bank ac
count to pay personal bills."

FIGHTS TO END HER LIFE
Ethel Hughe. Fails with Oas and Then
Struggles for Strychnine.
REQUIRES THREE MEN TO RESTRAIN HER
llashand Comes Home Intoxicated and
Orders Policemen aad Physi
cians from the Home,
bat He la Arrested.
Mrs. Ethel Hughes made an unsuccess
ful attempt to take her own life at 9
yesterday morning by asphyxiation and
after having been revived grabbed a pack
age containing strychnine, which was on a
table near her bed, and attempted to swal
low the contents of that. It was finally
wrested from her and she was quieted
after a desperate struggle with two police
officers and the police surgeon. To add to
the confusion J. R. Hughes, husband of
the woman, came home In an Intoxicated
condition and ordered the officers and phy
sician from the bouse. After trying to en
force his command be was arrested and
locked up, charged with being drunk.
Mrs. Hughes went Into her room on the
second floor of 1564 Sherman avenue about
9 o'clock, pulled down and fastened the
windows, locked the door and, after turn
ing on three gas jeta full blast, lay down
across tbo foot of the bed. A few minutes
later Mrs. Pierce, who occupies the ground
floor of the house, smelled the gas and,
after making an unsuccessful attempt to
get Into the room, notified the police sta
tion. O Blcer Force tbe Door.
The officers forced the door and found
Mrs. Hughes lying on the bed unconscious.
Police Surgeon Benawa administered re
storatives and she was soon pronounced
out of danger.
Mrs. Hughes Is In delicate health and
this, .coupled with the fact that her hus
band had recently been drinking heavily,
made her decpondent, which caused her to
attempt to take her life. She was taken
to the police station and given a room In
the matron's apartment, where she will be
kept for the present. Her husband Is a
switchman, employed by the Missouri Pa
cific Railroad company and works at night.
Mrs. Hughes Is only about four feet In
height and about 23 years of age.
COMMITTEE IS DISCOURAGED
Finds Opposition to Proposed Change
of Grade on Twent y-Fonrth
Street.
The matter of changing the grade of
Twenty-fourth street between Leaven
worth and Hickory has reached a atage
where it Is possible the entire question
will be dropped.
A committee of the Southwest Improve
ment club which has been securing signers
to a petition for the Improvement of tbe
atreet and a waiver of damages from In
terested property owners has met with
some opposition on the part of certain real
estate owners and at the next meeting of
the club will probably recommend that no
further action be taken.
"We found," said a member of the com
mittee, "that the residents of Hickory
street have about determined to petition
for the grading and paving of that street
between Twentieth and Twenty-fourth
streets. Such a change will give us un
impeded and easy access from the center
of town to the Twenty-fourth street via
duct, so It Is really unnecessary to make
the contemplated Improvement on Twenty
fourth street north of Hickory. The atreet
car company can connect with South
Omaha by way of Ita East Park line and
Twenty-fourth street north of Hickory will
be useless so far as lnter-clty traffic la
concerned."
Good for Rhenmntlsm.
Last fall I waa taken with a very severe
attack of muscular rheumatism, which
caused me great pain and annoyance. After
trying several prescriptions and rheumatic
cures I decided to use Cbamberlaln'a Pain
Balm, which I had seen advertised In tbe
South Jeraeyman. After two applications
of this remedy I waa much better, and after
using one bottle was completely cured.

ship on the stockmen. They have been
feeding at great expense all winter after
the bad aeason last year and they wers ex

prices much longer than they had planned.
There are already some heavy losers

III DOUBT REMOVED.
The question as to the wholesomenesa
and nutritive properties of beer depends
entirely upon the kind. In this instance
it is derided In the affirmative by expert
testimony. An absolutely pure product of
barley, malt and hops, the famous bottling
of Men Is unrivalled as a table beer and
stimulant. Give scat to the meal,
strengthens, invigorates. , Always the best
by every test.
