C0NCESSI0NSAT CONVENTION
Christian Church Eircntlve Commit
tee Ready to Dispose of
Coliseum PrlTllesxes.
At a meeting of the executive committee
of the Christian church convention com
mittee at Council Bluffs Thursday It was
decided to close with several persons for
concessions at the Coliseum. There will
be maintained at the building a restaurant,
barber shop, bootblack stand, news depot
aud place for tho sale of souvenirs of the
occasion. These places will be controlled
by persons who are licensed by the local
committee and a percentage of the salea
will go to the convention funds or the con
cessions will be sold outright.
It was decided by the committee to hold
but one more union meeting of the gen
eral church committee. This meeting will
be held on some Sunday between now and
the opening of the convention and will be
devoted to prayer for the success of the
oonvention and thanksgiving fnr the work
already done. The executive committee
will hold sessions as usual.
The chairman of the entertainment com
mittee reports that she has been well re
ceived by the people of the city with whom
ahe has conferred regarding the entertain
ment of delegates' to the convention. Many
of those having large houses have placed
their extra rooms at the service of the
delegates and have refused to receive com
pensation for their use. Others have fixed
prices which were wholly inadequate for
the aarvlcs, so that It is expected that
there will be no trouble In providing
houses for the visitors.
The committee Is now In, doubt aa to the
future of the Omaha Christian, a weekly
publication started as the official organ
of the convention. There have been some
Who desired to have it made a permanent
publication of the church and a committee,
consisting of Dr. Slabaugh of South Omaha,
Judge Slabaugh of Omaha and Rev. W. D.
Crewdson of Council Bluffs, was. appointed
to consider the matter and make recom
mendation to the general committee.

The street fair grounds In the neighbor
hood of Douglas and Seventeenth streets
are beginning to assume form. The grounds
re now enclosed and a number of those
having concessions are putting thetr tents
and temporary buildings In shape.
The local merchants, manufacturers and
Jobbers are taking advantage of the fair
to advertise their business. All but twelve
of the booths set aside for Industrial pur
poses have been leased and it Is expected
that more will have to be constructed to
accommodate all who desire to make dis
play. There Is some delay in sending out the
souvenirs and invitations to the grand ball.
It was expected that a large part of them
would be mailed Friday, but they have not
been delivered by the maker at this time

AIMS AT FAIR CASH VALUE
Tst Commissioner Isaacs t'lrcalar
Pertalalasr to Aearaaanent of
Personal Property.
Tax Commissioner Fleming has Just Is
sued a circular for the Instruction of his
assessors and the information of the tax-
paying public generally, which Indicates
pointedly that In the pending assessment
of personal property particular attention Is
to be given to bank accounts, mortgages
and other securities which are enumerated
under divisions 26 to 29 of the sssesement
schedules, and to all of those other classes
of personal property which ordinarily
either escape taxation or are listed at much
less than their real value. In connection
with the brief statement above as to those
items of the schedule which are referred to
only by number the circular is self-explanatory
and reads as follows:
First The assessment of all Drooerty.
real and personal, for the city of Omaha
fnr 1"3 will be made at fair cash value.
etrlctly according to law. Therefore, per
sons ownlnj now the same personal prop
erty as a year ago snoulu (ir correctly as
sessed at that time) be assessed for prac
tically two and a half times t'Vi) the for
mer amount. If owning less or more now
than Inst vear the assessment should be
Increased or decreased accordingly.
Becond The returns heretofore made In
classes of property enumerated under Nos.
26. 27, 2 and 29 have not been what they
should have been. Judging from public
bank statements ana otner means or in
formation. This la a great Injustice to
those owning only other classes of per
sonal property, and who make proper re
turns, or to owners of realty, who cannot
escape taxation.
The department Is now In position to en
force, to a reasonable degree at least, the
assessment of several millions' worth of
personal property Included under os. 26
to 29. and the assessors are specially in
structed to pointedly examine owners or
their representatives as to personal prop
erty of this nature, and it la the owners'
dutv to return such.
Third The better class of horses, car
riages, etc., seem to be undervalued ac
cording to the present market, and asses
sors are instructed 10 De more particular
about viewing such property.
Fourth The returns on diamonds,
lewelrv and silver Dlate are Inadequate,
Assessors should take notice.
Fifth The assessors are authorized
deputies of the tax commissioner and have
full power to put owners under oath and
examination where the return by the owner
is questioned by the deputy.
Sixth Taxpayers should read back page
of schedule.
Seventh Notice especially fifth article In
section 4288. that the property of a wife
should be returned by her husband.
Eighth The price at which an owner is
wllllnir to aell uersonal property and
another willing to pay under ordinary con
ditions ana not emergency conditions
would approach a fair cash value. A sec
ond hand dealer's offer is not fair cash
value.
Ninth The law reaulres ' all schedules
should be sworn to and deputies have the
power to administer the oath.
Tenth Provision will be made to ac
commodate taxpayers, so that the deputies
can be seen in their dlRtrict or at city hall
on Saturday afternoons and evenings.

HIGHWAYMANLOSES HIS TIME
Holds Ip Clinton Hla-by, Finds Only
a Nickel and Gives It
Back.
Clinton Hlgby, 2423 Leavenworth street.
last night had an experience with a gentle
manly highwayman, who, with the exception
of making Hlgby 's hair stand on end for
several minutes, did him no harm. Hlgby
was on his way home shortly before 11
o'clock and was at Thirty-fourth and Leav
enworth when the incident occurred. The
highwayman, with a handkerchief over his
face and a revolver in his hand, stepped
from a shadow.
"Hands up!" he commanded, as he shoved
the revolver close to Hlgby's face. Hlgby's
hands went up. Then the highwayman
searched Hlgby's pockets and discovered
In the corner of one of them one lone
nickel hovering deep In the pocket, as
though in tear. When be bad assured him
self that the nickel waa all the money Hlgby
had, he looked at It for a few minutes and
then. In a sad voice, said: "Here, young
man, take It back; you need It worse than
I do." And Hlgby took it

ANTICIPATES COMBINE OF MINE OWNERS
Object of Company Is to Be In Posi
tion to Supply Its Own Bleeds
Independent ot Any Fa
tore Trust.
The Chicago, Burlington A Qulncy rail
road closed a deal Wednesday for the pur
chase of the minerals rights of 41,000 acrea
of land, situated south of Springfield, 111.,
between the Chicago Alton and the Illi
nois Central roads. The deal was en
gineered by A. G. Simpson of Chicago and
New York and is said to have involved ne
gotiations with more than 200 land owners.
The aggregate price paid for the rights is
over $1,000,000.
Not only for the amount of money In
volved, but for other considerations is the
transaction regarded with special signifi
cance. The report Is that the deal waa
prompted by the conviction on the part of
the Burlington management that before a
great time all the bituminous coal within
convenient hauling distance would be ab
sorbed by a gigantic trust. The Burling
ton has therefore taken time by the forelock
in thus securing possession of bituminous
fields, in order that it may be absolutely
Independent of the trust, when its appre
hension may have been realized. It was
regarded as even more profitable by the ex
perts to whom the Burlington management
submitted Its proposition to buy new and
untapped mineral lands than invest in old
mines already .In operation. Hence the
purchase of these options rather than the
buying up of the same amount ot active
mining property.
To Make First Payment.
Attorney Baldwin of the Burlington,
whose offices are at Burlington, la.,
has gone to Springfield to pay over
the money for the rights, ife Is said to
have taken with him $100,000 in currency
and the remainder in drafts. It is In
tended to make the last payment by Oc
tober 1.
It Is said to be the purpose of the Bur
lington to get to work "digging" for coal
as toon as practicable. It is not under
stood that there is any immediate, neces
sity for active operations, but when ' the
time comes the Burlington management
promises its friends (the enemy) that it
will be on the ground doing business. The
benefits of this transaction will be extended
to every road In the Burlington system.
Clark Confirms Bee Story.
The Bee's story published several weeks
ago that a general demand for an Increase
In pay would be made this fall by con
ductors and other trainmen throughout the
United States has been officially con
firmed by E. E. Clark of Cedar Rapids, la.,
national head of the Order of Railway
Conductors. Mr. Clark says, as was stated
In The Bee, that a strike Is not contem
?lated as an element of this universal de
mandonly as a last resort. Failing to
convince any ot the roads In the country
of the Justice ot their demand, then the
trainmen may resort to a strike as a means
of enforcing their appeal. But the neces
sity of this extreme is not anticipated.
