(From Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, July IS. (Special.) The - bearing before the Board of Equalisation en the application of Douglas county for a red net I fln In Its tax assessment for atata purpoaea wi completed thla afternoon. The board tr-ok the natter under advise ment, promising to give the facta pre aented careful consideration. An adjourn ment was taken until tomorrow morning;, when the work tn other counties will 'be resumed. Auditor Weston said thla after noon be thought the asseasment would be completed before Friday of thla week. Blda will be opened by the Board of Public Lands and Buildings tomorrow for finishing the construction of the adminis tration building at the penitentiary and for repairing the west eellhouse. It Is esti mated that the probable cost of the work, with the materials necessary, will be be tween 120,000 and $30,000. There la no money available for this purpose and If a contract la granted by the board It will be with the understanding that the con tractor will look to the next legislature tor his remuneration. The fire early Isat year totally destroyed the office building of the Institution and badly damaged the weat eellhouse. With an appropriation of $75,000 the board baa purchased a new set of cells for the east wing, almost completed the administration building and erected a roof over the west wing. The east wing of the Institution ts now overcrowded and the board hopes to have the old eellhouse refitted, so that fifty or more of the convicts may be confined therein. The members feel that they were completed, because of the bad sanitary conditions existing, to attempt the comple tion of the repairs and reconstruction, not withstanding the deficiency. Several contractors Indicated a desire to take on the work, ao It la not believed that the lack of funds will prevent the board's plan from being carried out. With the money now available the ad ministration building will be put In condi tion for occupancy probably by August IS, but will still lack some much-needed Im provements. Play Trlek Game Wardea. ' Deputy Oame Warden George L. Carter of North Platte and Superintendent O'Brien of the state fish hatcheries at South Bend, bave been sued by a citlxen of Holt county for 16,000, for alleged false arrest. They notified Chief Warden Slmpkln of their predicament this afternoon and asked tor legal assistance in fighting the case. The ' trouble arose In a peculiar manner from ' the arrest of a farmer for shooting game in violation of the law. Carter and O'Brien have been conducting a small war against the illicit shooting In Holt county. Among several persons ar . rested at different times was a man ac- rompanled by two women. The officers took the man Into custody and started with him back to O'Neill, the county seat, the women following. As they neared the town one ef the officers noticed a -man handling a gun In a auspicious manner In a field half a mile from, the road. They put the of fender upon his honor, In the presence of bis companions, to appear at the house for trial at o'clock the next morning, taking his same as a safeguard against any possible torgetfulness on his part. Then they started after the other man and placed blm under arrest. The Brat offender failed to appear the V next morning and after waiting several hours the officers swore out a warrant for his arrest. The sheriff of the county served the warrant as directed, ' but It transpired when this nan waa brought Into ' court that he waa not the one who so solemnly promised he would voluntarily ap pear. Later in the day, be began suit for 15,000 damagea, alleging i that he had suf fered that much humiliation because of the false arrest that had been made.

To the Editor of The Bee: I notice In today's Bee mention of a meeting to be called at Lin coln to formulate a proposition to con tinue and extend the tenure of specified offices In the state of Nebraska. A similar proposition was made in the legislature of 1897. A lobbyist said to me that he had got some money to work the scheme and that I could get some It I wanted it. I said to him that whatever part I took In the matter I did not want any money. I heard no more of IU The sheet-anchor of American government la the education of Ita people. That education should be such that no expert few should ever be able to exploit the' many. Practical participation In politics Is the people's school of self government; continuation or repetition In office affords opportunity to merge political influence, makes the people dormant and Indifferent, and ultimately tends to arbi trary power.

When the Ak-Sar-Ben excursion to Dead wood started last night there were ap proximately 135 men and about a dozen women on board, but before It 'got out of the yards the total waa 136, for Gould Dletx was left at' the depot and only by good foutune and the vociferous shouts of the crowd did he get the train to stop and take him along. At least 200 persons took advantage of the evening to visit the depot an see friends and relatives started. It reminded one of the sailing of an ocean liner, and the noise of the visitors and the excur sionists was so great at the preliminaries attending that starting of the train was unnoticed until the cars were really In mo tion. It was said by those at the depot to be the best trade and pleasure excursion which ever left Omaha, as it included not only a majority of the board of governors of the Knights of Ak-Sar-Ben, but a large proportion of the beads of Omaha bouses. The train waa made up of five sleeping cars, two standard Pullmans and three tourist cars. The men generally took the tout 1st cars, 'leaving the standard sleepers to the men who were accompanied by wo men, and to the South Omaha party of twenty-six persons,, who had engaged one of the standard cars especially for the members of the Stock Exchange. Cars Neatly Decorated. The cars were decorated with Ak-Sar-Ben colors, banners of that order flying from the front of each car, while along the sides were printed streamers bearing ths words: "Omaha Ak-Sar-Ben Pilgrimage, 1902." "Ak-Sar-Ben Carnival, September 24 to October 4." "Orand Parades and Electric Pageants, October 1 and 2," "South Omaha Union Stock Tarda Live Stock Ex change." The ropes which held ths stream ers In place were covered with paper of the Ak-Sar-Ben colors. A baggage car had for the time being been transformed Into a com missary car and carried not only food, but samples and advertising matter for the ex cursionists. Accompanying the excursion was the Twenty-Second Infantry band. In charge of Bandmaster Relchart, consisting of twenty pieces. The band will not only head the procession of the Omaha men at Deadwood, but will supply muslo where stops were made enroute.
