Chief of Police Donahue has received forty-five
applications for the position of police
matron of the city jail, made vacant by
the resignation of Mrs. M. E. Uttle, and
Incidentally la almost on the verge of nerv
ous prostration because of It. Yester
day a woman pant 60 years of age who
walked with the assistance of a cane, of
fered to sacrifice herself for the good of
the town and for the $50 per. The chief
suggested that the applicant was too old
nd that she was not strong enough to at
tend to the duties devolving upon the po
lice matron. Without a word the woman
who was In her prime when the civil war
was fought, hobbled to the door of the
office, and then turned and after making
a profuse bow, said to the chief: "Sir, I
did not come here to be Insulted. I wouldn't
fake that Job It it was tne last one
on earth. Good morning; I hope your wife
will teach you some manners."
A majority of the applicants are young
women and one, after learning that tho
chief would not consider a person who
contemplated matrimony inside of two
years, came with a signed agreement,
promising to "refrain from keeping com
pany with any man or policeman for the
pace of three years, providing the agree
ment did not bar me from writing letters
to a male acquaintance." Others refused
io consider the position at all when the
marriage proposition was mentioned to
'them. And in the meantime no one has
been chosen, and the reception room is
filled :wlth applicants.

FAST TRAIN IS FORCED OFF
Northwestern Drops Sleeping- Car for
Chicago from Its Eaatbonnd
Fast Mall.
As snnounced In The Bee last Tuesday,
the eleven-hour passenger service on the
Chicago ft Northwestern railway between
Omaha and Chicago will be discontinued on
next Sundar. Orders to this effect reached
Northwestern officials here from the Chi
cago headquarters yesterdsy afternoon.
It was learned that the discontinuance of
this service was due entirely' to pressure
exerted by the other four trunk lines mak
ing the same run. The quartet pooled and
compelled the Northwestern to abandon Its
unprecedented passenger run for the Jour
ney. The only change on the part of the
Northwestern will be to remove the sleep
ing car from No. 10, the fast mall. The
train itself will still continue as It did be
fore the sleeper was put on it. This leaves
the fastest time between Omaha and Chi
cago eleven hours and forty-five minutes,
made by the new Northwestern-Union Pa
cific Colorado special trains to be Inaugu
rated Sunday.

SPECIAL GOOD THINGS IN
HOSIERY
NOTHING TO CONCEAL
Railroads Will Give Foil Details Begirding
Tax Matters.
SUBJECT TO BE THOROUGHLY PROBED
Home Roads Pay More Tax In Pro
portion Than Any Other Indnstry
In the State of Ne
braska. (Issued by Authority of the Railroads of
Nebraska.)
This Is the first of a series of srticles,
which will appear, giving full details re
garding the taxes paid by the railroads of
Nebraska and such Information ss will
enable realers to fully understand who
pays the taxes in Nebraska, and why the
various Boards of Equalization from year
to year have made the valuation on rail
road property that has been given out to
the various counties.
A great deal of this information has been
presented from time to time to the Boards
of Equalization, and It has been considered
by them in their estimates, while other
lines of Information, which we will present,
have never before appeared In print.
The railroads of Nebrsska have nothing
to conceal regarding their tax matters;
they pay and pay promptly their full pro
portion of taxes. They have more interest
in the euccessful development of Nebraska
than any other single Industry, and at all
times want to work with the people of the
state for the public good.
The managers of the railroads are busi
ness men, who provide for the payment of
the taxes charged against their roads as
conscientiously as they provide for the
payment of their employes. In several in
stances in this state the railroads have
paid ten times more tax to the counties
and state than they paid in profit to the
stockholders of he companies, and this has
been paid without complaint and promtly
when due.
The stockholders of these companies are
relying on Nebraska's future. They gladly
pay the tax charged, so that the schools
can be carried on, and those improvements
made that would show progress and Induce
other people to come here and assist In
the state's department.
It is on Nebraska's future that they build
their hopes of profit. There are other
roads in this state, which by combination
with great systems, pay dividends and in
those cases they pay more than their pro
portion of taxes in every instane, taking
any other Industry of the state in compari
son. All that the railroads care about In this
matter of payment of taxes, Is that they
receive fair treatment. They would not be
party to an attempt to defraud' the state
or counties of any Just tax, but of course
the Interests of their stockholders present
them from allowing an outrageous or un
just assessment.
In such matters as these, tha state of
Nebraska naturally must expect to keep
In line with what is done in other states.
They would not want to impose a tax
that would prevent the roads passing
through Nebraska, from successfully com
peting for Interstate traffic, because the
courts would naturally Yemedy such action
In time. The most difficult lesson to learn
In political economy has been equality in
taxation, and It has never yet been mas
tered. The revolution, that resulted in
the formation of our government was
fanned to flames through resentment caused
by unjust taxes. In our constitution. It
was expressly provided that "The right of
the people to be secure In their persons,
houses, papers and effects against unrea
sonable searches and seizures, shall not be
violated." And It was the direct result
of this feeling of protest against former
Impositions regarding the collection of
taxes, and this provision in our constitu
tion makes the question of equality In
taxation in this country, more difficult
than In a monarchy.
If the individual or private corporation
misrepresents the value of his property
holdings, there is no way of making htm
reveal. The railroads on the contrary
make monthly reports and publto quota
tions are dally made of their aecurlties
and every cent of their value Is revealed
whether It be real or speculative.
We hope to give some full and Interest
ing details.
The figures will be from official sources
and compiled carefully, giving exact facts,
and they will show whq pays the taxes and
in what proportion. (Adv.)

NEW PAVEMENT IS NEEDED
Mayor Aaaln Calls Attention to Con
dition of North Sixteenth
Street Surface.
Mayor Moores has written a letttr to the
city council, calling attention to the de
plorable condition of many of the asphalt
streets, with special reference to Sixteenth
street.
"You will remember," he writes, "that
last year I made a fight against the repair
ing of Sixteenth street, claiming it should
be repaved with a new concrete base. This
year the street Is, if anything, in a worse
condition than ever. The council should
devise some means of repavlng this street,
s it is a waste of money to repair it every
year.
"The terrible condition of some of our
asphalt-paved streets is a menace to life
and property. Our fire department Is con
stantly having repairs made on account of
breakage, as no matter how careful a driver
is be cannot avoid all of the boles and
ruts."
At the last meeting of the city council a
communication was received from City En
gineer Roeewater, saying that only $10,000
was available tor use In the repair of as
phalt streets.
FARMERS FIGHT NEW ROAD
They Seek to Enjoin County from
Acting: on Old Reso
lotion.
Frederick and Leopold Doll, farmers out
near the old fair grounds, have applied to
the district court for an injunction to re
strain the county of Douglas from opening
a road through their property. It seems
that the county board adopted a resolution
to open the road in question in January,
1887, but never' undertook the work until
November,. 1900, when the grading machines
appeared on the Doll farm. Now the Dolls
presume that the' county proposes to finish
the work and open the road and they seek
an Injunction, taking the position that the
failure of the board to act on its resolution
of 1887 until thirteen years had elapsed
was virtual vacation of the road.
REPUBLICAN CAUCUS IN SIXTH

same hall, there will be a meeting of the
Sixth Ward Republican club, at which ad
dresses will be made by Nelson C. Pratt
and John P. Breen, aspirants for the re
publican congressional nomination, and J.
H. Van Dusen, candidate for the guber

TOYS WITH GASOLINE STOVE
Reason Ret Up hj Mrs. Mary Gates for
Divorcs Decree.
SAYS HUSBAND USES FIRE AS PLAYTHING
Another 'Woman Seeks Freedom from
Matrimonial Yoke on Alienation
that Hnsbnnd Threatens
Life of Her Child.
Because Fred Gates has chosen the gaso
line stove for his favorite plaything his
wife Mary wants a divorce. In her petition,
filed In district court, Mrs. Gates intimates
that Fred Is in the habit of coming home
full of enthusiasm and red liquor and cele
brating his acquirement of the Jag by fsncy
illuminations on the gasoline stove. The
woman avers that her husband performs
some remarkable feats with the blue
flames, remarkable because they are given
without blowing up the whole neighborhood.
She Is afraid that Fred's luck In playing
with fire will fall him some day and then
the house and all that is In It will go up Id
the flames. Incidentally, Mrs. Gates charges
that her husband has failed to provide
properly for her support. They wers mar
ried In Omaha September 4, 1891.
Mary E. Wagner Is another woman with
a story which she thinks ought to bring her
a decree of divorce. She was married to
Conrad Wagner in this city in November,
1894, and now she complUns that Conrad
is a cruel husband and an inhuman father,
In her petition she relates that Wagner
took their 2-weeks-old child by the heels
and swung it about in much the same man
ner as he would an Indian club, threatening
to dash its brains out against tne wall.
Sylvia Myrtle Crane makes a plain charge
of habitual drunkenness against her hus
band, William Adelbert Crane, and expects
the proof of it to make her a single woman
once more.
Too Great a male.
In almost every neighborhood someone
has died from an attack of colto or cholera
morbus, often before medicine could be
procured or a physician summoned. A re
liable remedy for these diseases should be
kept at hand. The risk Is too great for
anyone to take. Chamberlain's Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy has un
doubtedly saved the lives of more people
and relieved more pain and suffering than
any other medicine in use. It can always
be depended upon.
