10 THE OMA1TA DAILY BEE: FRIDAY, JUNE 13, 1002. TAXES OF IMPLEMENT MEN (County Board of Equalization Give Subject Consideration. I ' RAISES ASSESSMENTS OF SOME FIRMS fWmrd AaiMior Gets Indignant at Hearing; and Demands "flrlrac tion of the Insinuation" of Ilnalaraa Man. Yesterday was agricultural Implement day fee f ore the County Board of Equalization, nd in the roundup a few thousand dollars were addod to the assessment roll,, with a slightly greater amount In proa pact. The hearing came up on the protest ct the Llnlnger & Motcalt company, which complained of an assessment of $20,000 and showed the assessments of other firms In the same line of business as reason for a reduction. This company was repre sented by Frank U. Haller, and the hearing was not devoid of spice. . Mr. Haller said that he had made a return of $14,000 on ;he stock of the company, which was one eUth of the fair cash value of the stock kin hand at the time of the assessment. "I Arled to convince the assessor of the Just mess of that return, but I did not take the proper course," he said with a smile which might mean anything. The assessor who made the return of $20,000 was present and Immediately caused a diversion by de manding a "retraction of the insinuation." In the discussion which followed as to the relative value of the stocks of the different Irompanles the assessor was ignored and re Hired, making subdued threats of personal jrncounlcr unless the words were with drawn. f Wants to See the Goods. i !Wblle this side play was in progress the Commissioners were hearing the statements of the Interested parties, each of whom, teilber In person or by attorney, was pro testing against any change In the assess ment as returned by the assessor. Finally i Commissioner Ostrom, chairman of the board, auggested that as a way of determin ing the relative values of the stocks of the different companies the board make a visit i to the houses. This was put as a motion ihy another member and it was decided that the board should make a personal inspec tion of the various stocks In the afternoon. This determination seemed to be unsatis factory to all of the persons present and they retired for consultation. As a result ;of their talk every Interested party was ready to explain to the board how little 'good such a visit would do, as there would be no possible way of telling the relative 'value of stocks on hand in April by their 'size at this time, and It was auggested by ' F. A. Brogan, attorney for the Deere Im 'plement company, that the parties bad agreed upon a basis of settlement which In their opinion would be Just, j Action (or Some Firms. . The board did not agree with the parties, ifcut after a short discussion, the following figures were adopted as final for the as sessments of certain firms: Llnlnger & Metcalf company, $16,000, a reduction of 41,000 from the assessor's return; John ..Deere Implement company, $14,000, an In crease of $6,000 over last year; Pari In, jOrendorf & Martin company, $8,000, an In crease of $2,000 over last year, and the 'Nebraska-Mollne company, $8,000, an In crease of $2,000. Thla was accepted by the parties with the understanding that other 'implement dealers be cited to appear before Ithe board and be given an Increased assess ment In proportion to the increase made .upon the parties present today. ; ANOTHER IMPROVEMENT.

That school politics are seething at hot weather temperature awaiting the meeting of the school board next Monday Is read ily seen from the following statement made by W. F. Johnson, chairman of the High school committee, In which he suggests reasons for the opposition to the recom mendations of his committee: "I see It announced that It will be pro posed at the next meeting of the board to do away with all heads of departments at the High achool and require the principal to do all the supervising work now done by nine or ten heads of departments. This Is ssld to be the scheme of President Barnard and to have as Its object to reduce to the ranks the head ot one of the departments, agalnet whom he has a well known grudge, and also to put upon the principal work which it will be Impossible for him to do, he having an equally well known grudge against the principal. Superintendent Pearse favors the plan because this sup port will make sure of Barnard's vote for his re-election. After his re-election Fearse has agreed with his friends and the friends of this head of department to use all his Influence to have him made an as sistant principal at a salary of $150 per month. This, of course, Barnard Is not to be allowed to know until Pearse la safely elected. Meantime the interests ot the High school, the teachers and the public may be entirely ignored."

WILLING TO ACCEPT SHOP-WORN CORPSE They Discuss the Propriety of Show In Their Line of Caskets and Shrouds to Prospective Widows. An unforeseen difficulty Is confronting the Nebraska Funeral Directors association, in annual session at Crelghton Medical col lege. They can't find a fresh csdaver to be used by the professor In his lecture on "Anatomy of the Organs and Cavity Em balming," which Is the firJt Item on the program Friday morning. The county poor farm and all of the hospitals have been canvassed In vain and the Omaha Medical college can do nothing to supply the deficiency. The usual market price of $30 for a human body In good condition has been raised to $100 and still there are no takers. Telegrams went yesterday to Lin coln, St. Joseph and Des Moines, asking the health boards of these cities It they had any "subjects" on sale. "Even though slightly shelf-worn," said N. P. Swanson, chairman of the foraging committee, "we might be able to use them. I wish you would say In your paper that anyone having a cadavar or who Is willing to become a cadavar In the Interest of science, can learn something to his ad vantage by communicating with me." Prof. W. P. Hohenschuh's lecture yester day morning was on the subject, "Disinfec tants, Antiseptics and Deodorants." He closed with a few hints on how a funeral director should dress for a funeral, and how he should conduct himself. Quiet, unassuming dignity was urged. As to dress, a long black coat and a black tie were es sential. Little Things Connt. "It makes no difference," said the pro fessor, "how well a body may be prepared, how well It may look or how handsome a casket It may be In, one little break at a funeral and all that Is gone. It Is the little things that count. Not long ago I attended a funeral and something came up that required the attention ot the di rector. He was nowhere in sight. I went to look for him, and finally found him out In front of the house with his hands In his pockets, chatting with a hack driver. Mean while the mourners and the pallbearers were worrying along as best they could." In the afternoon the "question bottle" was the center of attraction. It Is a large, wide-mouthed flask, originally used to con tain formaldehyde, but now pressed Into service to receive anonymous questions propounded by the members. The questions pertain to almost everything connected with the undertaking business. Here is a sample; "Is it a violation of the ethics of the craft to solicit business? For example: A man Is ill with a disease that must end life in say twenty-four hours. Is It a breach of propriety for me to call his wife's attention to my stock of caskets, trimmings, shrouds and the like?" Soliciting; Mar Be Right. The consensus of opinion seemed to be that the second of the foregoing questions should be answered negatively. As to the first there was some doubt. It was agreed that. If competition was fierce, soliciting might be permissible within certain limits. BATTERY OF LIGHT ARTILLERY Military Organisation Being Formed in Omaha Under Direction of K. 8. Harris. Under the direction of Russell 8. Har ris a battery ot artillery Is being formed. The battery will consist of four officers and eighty men and will have a social as well as a military side.

AS LAWN MOWERS Field Clnb Members Kxpect Clean Shave for Their Golf Ground. The Omaha Field club Is to use 700 sheep as lawnmowers. The efflracy of these ani mals for that purpose has long been rec ognized, but their practical application to that end Is now to be the first time Illu strated In Omaha. These 700 sheep will be given four days In which to clip to the ground every blade of forty acres of thickly grown bluegrass and clover. This expedient was adopted by the greens committee after long deliberation on a situation with which It found Itself con fronted. Early In the spring It enclosed the old golf course used last year and turned the players on the new course to the west. It was desired to get a healthy, firm turf on the old course, which was considerably beaten out and deadened by much tramping over It. It was heavily seeded, and the wet spring brought results that were beyond all expectations. The grass grew so heavy and thick that it looked like an all-summer's task to mow it, and even then It would not be thor oughly and evenly done, an essential for a good golf course. In the extremity sheep and rabbits were considered. Each has hair clipper teeth, and either does a barber shop Job on lawns. Rabbits were favored as being daintier and leas destructive, but it was found after a canvass that there were not enough In the vicinity to do the work In time. Then again, they would be hard to confine, and one good glutonous dog could In a short time annihilate the entire mowing machine by sneaking over the fence when the keeper was not watching. So the sheep was chosen, and a good big flock was arranged for, as the golfers are anxiously awaiting the consolidation of the two courses Into one of eighteen holes. It Is certain that the sheep will mow the links better than anything else, except rabbits, and It Is not thought that the sharp hoofs of the animals will rut the ground any In so short a time on such a heavy turf. HELP. OUT ROBBER'S VICTIM Judge Berks and Policemen Raise Fnnd for Relief of An. tone Mallr. Antone Mallr, who was beaten out of all the money be had by Jesse Adams, who worked a bad check on him, has had his confidence In human nature restored by the action of Judge Berka and members of the police department. Mallr is sick with con sumption and was enroute to his home in Wilson, Kan., when he was robbed ot his means. Wednesday afternoon Judge Berka headed a subscription paper to raise suffi cient funds for him to go to Excelsior Springs, there to take treatment, and with the assistance of the police force $25.50 was raised In a few hours. Mallr was sent on his way yesterday and will return here when Adams Is brought to trial In the district court. DEPUTY SHERIFF RESIGNS J. G. Sherry Qalts vonnty Job to Take Position at Grand Island. Joseph G. Sherry, deputy sheriff, has re signed his position under Sheriff Power to take effect next week. Mr. Sherry will go to Grand Island, where he will become fore man ot the boiler shops of the Union Pacific Railroad company. It was an nounced in the sheriff's office that no ap pointment would be made to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation, the other depu ties doing the work. With the resignation of Mr. Sherry there will be two deputies less in the office of the sheriff than there were during Mr. Power's first term. Too Great a ft I at. In almost every neighborhood someone has died from an attack of colic 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 Collo. Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy has un doubtedly saved the Uvea of more people and relieved more pain and suffering than any other medicine in use.- It can always be depended upon.

The Lake Shore A Michigan Southern Railway has Just Issued a new summer book, "Lake Shore Tours," showing a se lected list of eastern resorts, with routes and rates. A copy will be sent on applica tion to M. 8. Giles. T. P. A.. Chicago, or C. T. Daly, C, A, Q. P. A., Chicago, TO SURVEY THE RAILROADS County Surveyor to Make Flats Showing Every Line, WORK TO BEGIN NEXT MONDAY MORNING Three Men Eaperted to Re Engaged on the Job for Fonr Months Every Detail of Lines to Be Shown. Last evening Roy Towle returned from a tour of Inspection ot the county msde preliminary to the survey for the purpose of securing exact information as to the mileage of the railroads In Douglas county. Monday morning the surveying party, con sisting of three men, with Mr. Towle In chargo, will start out on the work. Ac cording to the plans of the county surveyor the party will begin at the northwest cor ner of the county, where the Union Pacific railroad leaves the county line. The sur vey will be run along the line ot that road to where that line enters Sarpy county and will be reeumcd where it again enters Douglas county, this survey running to the line of the city of South Omaha. The party will then go to the northern line of the county and follow the Elkborn tracks to the line of the city of Omaha. Mr. Edquist soys that he expects to survey all lines ot road in the county outside of the cities of Omaha and South Omaha before beginning on the work on the city lines. The surveyor will make hla map in the field, the scale to be 400 feet to the Inch on all lines ot track over the county, the plat to show all cattle guards, all houses of every description connected with the roads and all cuts and fills, so that It will be possible to determine the character of every mile of road from the plat. Where the plat Is to show numerous sidetracks and other details the scale will be enlarged to 100 feet to the Inch, to give an oppor tunity to get every detail on the plat. It Is expected that the work will take four months. As to Annual Extensions. "After this work Is done," said Mr. Ed quist, "the maps will only be relatively correct, for there will be no way to tell how much track has been constructed after the completion of the plats. What we should have Is a law requiring the rail road companies to file with the county clerk a plat of every piece of track built by them, so that from this report we can make our extensions on the official plats and thus keep the plats up to date. In the absence ot any such law I may ask the commissioners to authorize me to make an annual trip over the county, taking the plats with me and placing upon them any extensions which may be found. One of the features of the plats will be a showing as to the character and extent of the bridges of the companies. This Is Intended to give some idea of the relative cost of the structures." POLICE TAB00JHIRT WAISTS Officers Will Wear Coats of Dark Color and Light Weight This Summer. It Is likely that in a few days the mem bers of the police department will discard their regulation heavy coats and substitute a blue or black light goods coat, something on the order of alpaca. The shirt waist which was worn for a while last summer la In bad favor and will not be worn this year. The reason for this Is that the shirt waist exposes the officer's revolver and gives him an appearance entirely too vicious for this peaceful community. Chief Donahue stated yesterday that he would recommend to the board the adoption of the light coat, and if the weather continued warm he would do so at once. Chilaren Like It. "My little boy took the croup one night,' says F. D. Reynolds of Mansfield, O., "and grew ao bad you could bear him breathe all over the house. I thought he would die, but a few doses of One Minute Cough Cure re Ueved and sent him to sleep. That's the last we heard of the croup." Oae Minute Cough Cure Is absolutely safe and acts at once. For coughs, colds, croup, grip. asthma and bronchitis. Flag Day Exercises. The principal attractions for Saturday afternoon and evening for seekers of out door recreation and amusement will be the grand patriotic musical program ar ranged by Mr. E. Nordin in honor of the national flag day, by the Courtland beach orchestra, which Is composed ot twelve ot the very finest musicians to be found In Omaha. And that is saying a great deal when one considers the large amount ot talent In Omaha In this profession. The children especially will be interested in these patriot lo selections. The manage ment wishes to make Flag day a pleasing and patriotic remembrance to all. All the numerous free shows will be given both afternoon and evening and a grand time Is offered the many patrons ot Omaha's fa vorite popular resort. Seat Sunday, Jnae 15th, Will Re the First Time.
