Jail Screens Placed.
Heavy wire screens were placed over
the outside windows to the city Jail yes
terday afternoon. These screens have been
required for some time, but for some
reason or another there was delay in hav

window covered with a heavy screen the
jailors will not bo bothered so much about
passing In of contraband articles to the
prisoners. The wire In the screen Is quite
heavy and cannot be easily broken, so
that there Is little danger now of prisoners
escaping by way of the window-route or

ADVANCE OF THE NEGRO RACE
Rev. Philip Aklla Habert Lectares to
I.arg-a Audience at Zlon Bap
tist Church.
Rev. Philip Aklls Hubert, a noted colored
preacher snd educator of ths south and
financial secretary of Morgan college at
Lynchburgh, Va., and the Paul Quinn col
lege of Waco, Tex., occupied the pulpit at
the Zion Baptist church, '2215 Orant street,
Inst evening. Rev. Mr. Hubert has been in
the city about two weeks and will stay
two weeks longer In the interests of tit)
Institutions he represents. Mr. Hubert,
who Is an eloquent speaker and a strik
ing example of what education can do for
the colored race, chose for his theme last
evening "Qod and the Colored Race; or an
Argument Showing . Very . Palpably and
Clearly that the Colored Race Is as
Closely Identified with God as Any Other
Race." Mr. Hubert said In part:
"The progress of the race Is consequent
upon Identical creation. We must view ths
race from a religious and moral stand
point; we must consider it from physiog
nomical, anatomical and ethnological
standpoints; this Is absolutely necessary to
get an intelligent' understanding of the
question. The negro question is not at all
a serious ore. In spite of all that has hap
pened antagonistic to Its progress.
"One of the prims essentials Is that the
race must take cognisance of Its personal
advancement; then the advancement of
the race us a whole will follow as a natural
consequence. The longevity of ths race
establishes ,lts permanancy as a race. It
matters not what social causes msy be In
jected Into the race. It does not deteriorate,
but rather It strengthens through the Ares
of adversity. '
"All things ronuldered there la no paral
lel la lUstory to compare with ths negro's
progress during the past forty years, and
the tendency Is, with the present Industrial
Improvements, the race will continue to Im
prove at an Increased ratio. ' This is my
honest conviction."
A large attendanoe listened to Mr. Hub
ert's remarks.

City Treasurer Defends Tax Van Condemned
by Eeal Estate Exchange.
SAYS IT WAS NEEDED WITH SOME MEMBERS
Tells of Forcible Methods Necessary
la Collecting Taxes of Real Estate
Man Who Vowed Vengeance
Against Treasurer.
Action by the Real Estate exchange In
declaring the exhibition of City Treasurer
Hennlngs' collection van In "bad taste
and entirely unnecessary'' has called
forth a trenchant reply from Mr. Hennlngs.
He asserts that his method of inducing
the prompt payment of taxes has produced
$2,000,000 for ths city during the last few
years. and declares the action of tho ex
change was brought about through per
sonal Ill-feeling on the part of some of
the leading members whom he found it
necessary to coerce Into paying their taxes.
The treasurer withholds the names of the
tax shirkers In the exchange, but says they
will be furnished if desired.
While not deeming it advisable to give
out the facts concerning the episode which
Treasurer Hennlngs believes to be at the
bottom of the present criticism, his rec
ords show' that In 1901 he collected personal
taxes delinquent for twelve years from
one of the men who is an officer of the
exchange at this time, a distress warrant
being used, coupled with the threat of
attachment of personal property and re
moval In the van. After this point had
been reached the real estate man went to
the city hall, paid the taxes and, shaking
his flat under the nose of the treasurer,
declares he would "fix him."
Hennlngs Explains the Case.'
In the opinion of Treasurer Hennlngs
the long-delayed attempt to "fix" has been
started. The treasurer gave out the fol
lowing statement defending his position:
In 1901 the Omaha Real Estate exchange
went on record as endorsing my system of
collecting delinquent taxes.
On April 21. IM), the Omaha Commercial
club, in a letter, said: "Motion unani
mously adopted endorsing your course In
pressing collections of delinquent taxes
and hope you will continue your effort in
this direction with energy and success."
On May 5, 1903, the good people of Omaha
re-elected me with a majority of 3,128 votes,
thereby endorsing my plan and saying,
"Continue to do your duty, and, if neces
sary collect with the van."
I have been city treasurer for over four
years, during which time the "van was on
the streets for twenty-two days, with the
following result:
Under the former treasurers 55 per cent
of personal taxes were collected, while
under my plan 95 per cent. This is an
Increase of 40 per cent, which would
amount to $160,000 on the 1904 levy and
would be a saving of almost 2,00u,000 dur
ing a period of ten years, if the Interest
on the oasis of 25 per cent Is included.
As every other large i city, Omaha has
some tax shirkers. These are the people
whom I have been after, and the kicking
comes largely from this class.
Some of the most prominent members of
the Real Estate exchange have refused to
pay back taxes until I attached their
goods, and at that time they threatened
they would fix me. If desired, names
will be furnished. '
Ninety per cent of the annual tax levy
Is appropriated and set aside before the
tax list reaches my office, and the warrants
issued monthly are registered for Interest
at 7 per cent, for the reason that the cash
Is not In the treasury; therefore, In order
to stop this 7 per cent and get the city on
a cash basis, It becomes necessary to use
my method snd enforce collections of de
linquent taxes.
In conclusion would state that several
members of the Real Estate exchange
called upon me yesterday and today and
stated that had they been present they
would have fought the passage of the reso
lution. KILPATRICK'S TENT RUINED
Wind Demolishes the Giant "Top" and
Great Show Will Be Given Free
at Krug- Park.
Ths short stormy spell Wednesday after
noon cost the Kllpatrick Bros, show over
$1,000 a minute. Their mammoth tent,
fifty-five feet In height, was almost com
pletely demolished, and the dancing poles
and fixtures were smashed like so much
matchwood. The guy ropes parted snd
the whole tent was only saved from being
blown away by the center pole, which
stood fast. The storm lasted about four
minutes snd In that time canvass men,
performers snd all available men were
commandeered into service. They at
tempted to hold down the stake ropes, but
tha wind swept them from their hold, and
It wss only by the merest chance that no
one was Injured.
The tent la on a hillock at the Krug
Park grounds snd had no protection from
ths wind, srid In a Jiffy the great structure
was rent from Job to bottom. The tent is
tha largest circus tent In the world. As
Kllpatrick Bros, had made a contract with
ths Krug Park people to give tha per
formances, all that could be done at so
Short a notice was done and performances
given In Krug Psrk arena. Time did not
permit tha loop-ths-loop to bs erected and
this wss rot given last night, but It Is
programed for tonight's performance. Out
side of the cost of the tent Kllpatrick
Bros, lose some $3,000 by having to give
their performance free of charge. There
will be no extra admission to the Krug
Park grounds.
FONTANELLE S0CIAL SESSION
Club Listens to Some Speeches and
Indulges In Light Refresh,

The Fontanelle club met Wednesday at 1320
Farnam street, third floor, front, don't ring.
It was a social session, but whether in cele
bration of Tom Blackburn's first night out
since his return irom California or the
home-coming of Wattles and Brome from
the Chicago convention was not made quite
clear from the proceedings. All thres of
the gentlemen named acknowledged the
compliment from the club when they were
called upon to utter words.
R. BT Howell called the assembly to or
der and introduced ..Lieutenant Governor
McGtlton as the chairman of the evening.
The lieutenant governor, having the honor
thrust upon him unexpectedly, found him
self short of words Ji which to express his
gratitude and made'an Immediate draft on
the eloquence- that bfr-knew was concealed
behind the negligee shirts In the room. Ills
first call was for O. W. Wattles, who came
forward and expatiated at length upon the
work of the Nebraska delegates and visi
tors at the Chicago convention. Inci
dentally Mr. Wattles declared that one of
the objects- of the Fontanelle club was to
bring together "the better element", of the
republican party in Douglas county. "Let
us hope that we will always be represent
ing that which Is best Ip the party and that
we will always be fighting that faotion
which represents ths worst of the party."
he said.
Mr. Blackburn was the next member to
talk; but he said very little, confining his
remarks to an expression of his gratitude
for the welcome given him on his return
from California with a wife.
Harry Brome, who came next, sought to
Impeach the testimony of his reoent col
league, Mr. Wattles, by declaring that the
Fontanelle club represents no faction In the
republican party.
After Mr. Brome's speech a fifteen-minute
recess was taken for refreshments,
which consisted of sandwiches and claret
lemonade. About half of those present took
sdvantage of the recess to get away, and
consequently when Howard Kennedy, Jr.,
and W. F. Ourley spoke about half of the
benches were empty. Mr. Ourley said he
considered his membership in the club s,
badge of honor, for the reason that the
organisation stands for the principles of

Youth Is Toaehed for Roll.
J. C. Blsgard, a youth of tender years
and residing at 606 South Sixteenth street,
after losing $62 In a resort last night, came
to the conclusion that six months In a city
doee not necesnarlly mean a knowledge of
the world snd the ways of the women that
inhabit it. -Blsgard's home is in Harlan,
la., and his knowledge of the peculiarities
of the Third ward women was vague. He
saw them as he passed their windows, they
looked so charming, so entrancing, so in
nocent. One of them Gertie Washington
smiled at him and his fate was sealed. She
put her arms around him, and appropriated
his cash. He did r.ot notice his loss until
he had left the place and this gave the
