Deputy Clark Orossman affixed the filing stamp to tha little document handed In by County At torney English first and then to each of the big books carried by tha clerks from the treasurer's office. All of the volumes were then taken back to tha treasurer's olTlcee, where they must ba kept for refer ence and record in tha collection of de linquent taxes from this time on. The case la brought in the name of tha state of Nebraska and Is against the par cels of land described la tha twenty big volumes of delinquent tax . statements. There are between J6,000 and 40,000 .de scriptions In tho books and as each de scription haa with it an lteralseed state ment of the deJnquent state, county and lty taxes and the Interest charges an nually the record contains something like 700,ow Items. These books make a com plete record of delinquent taxes for Doug las county and the cities of Stfuth Omaha and Omaha and their compilation has kept scores of clerks busy In the office of the county treasurer for months. To Clean Ip Dellnaarnclra. The scavenger law made if necessary to begin the suit for the cleaning up of delinquent taxes not later than July 1 and It allows the owners of land against which there are delinquent taxes to tile answers to the suit until September 1. On Novem ber 1 all owners who have not f)led answers will be adjudged In default and their property wilt be sold for taxes as soon thereafter as the court decree can be made. These tax sales may be avoided also by the payment of delinquent taxes before November L About $5,000,000 of deUnquent taxes are In volved In the suit, but it is not expected this amount will be realised In collections forced by the suit and in sales on account of default, for In many cases the old taxes amount to much more than the land will bring at tax sale. However, County Treas urer Fink believes that the action will bring In a large amount of money that otherwise never would have been collected. Another result will be the cleaning up of the tax books and the restoration of a large amount of "dead" property to the live tax rolls. PICK LARS EN FOR A VICTIM Buttlnskjr Clab, with Aid of Police, Have Some Fan with the ( Iceaaaa. Last night was the second time that John M. Larsen of tha Larsen Ice Machine company and Captain Mostyn met; the first time they ,met in Ottawa, Kan., when Mr. Larsen had to pay $19.80 for fast driving, and last "night ha was arrested by the Omul a police for the same offense. The arrest was brought about by Dave O'Brien, who telephoned Captain Mostyn to. capture Larsen as he returned in his automobile from the Buttlnsky'a outing at Lake Manawa. Officer Baldwin was told to do the catching, and he stationed him self at the foot of the Douglas street bridge to do so. When Larsen' s machine reached him he made a grab for it, but the smell drove him off and he had to run. He caught the offender at the Henshaw hotel. Informed him that he was under ar rest and told him to head for the police station unless he wanted to ride in the patrol wagon. Larsen fumed and" swore. What was the charge? What was the meaning of this outrage on a business man? Fast and reckless driving." said Bald win. 'I was driving within the limit," sput tered Larsen. "YotfU pay for this. By, by . v 'Don't swear," cautioned the officer. "If you do, 1)1 have to oharge you with using prof ane - language on the streets. I ar rested you because you did not stop when that horse and buggy passed you. ' That Is the lawcof Iowa. I suppose you never heard of ItT" "I never did," answered Larsen. Baldwin laughed and lied conscientiously. "What next?" he said, scornfully. "And I suppose you never heard that In case a borse gets fidgety, the law compels the driver of an automobile to get out and lead it by the beadT" "Lead it by the Ob, Lord! this beats ie. He got into the machine and. with the mighty Dan beside him, they two started for the police station, Larsen getting mad' der the nearer tbey got to It. At their destination Captain Mostyn declined to take a signed bond. He wanted IS cash. Larsen did not have the money. Then you must paas the night in Jail," said Captain Moatyn. . . He shivered visibly, but his face cleared for In trooped the rotund Dave, followed by half a dosen prominent automoblllsts. 'Put up $20 for me," he pleaded. "Just $20. Hurry up and don't stand like a lot of sympathetlo fools." Tbey all felt in their pockets, but alas, by even clubbing together they could only make It and a Canadian quarter. O'Brien's face grew as round as an O, tears glla tened in his eyes and he begged Captain Mostyn to let the offender go. He even offered to put up bis watch for the neoea- sary amount, saying It coat him $300. Cap tain Mostyn looked at the watch and said it would be good for $1 When hope had left Larsen and be sat with his hands holding his aching head they told him. Told him it waa a Joke. Before he left he told 'Captain Moatyn that he. waa no law' breaker and the Captain reminded him of the Ottawa affair.

The Making of a aty" was the subject of an interesting addresa by Dr. O. L. Miller at the First Fresbyterian church Friday. The meeting was an "Omaha meeting" held under the auspices of the Christian citisenshlp committee of the Omaha Christian Endeavor union. Dr. Miller told of the days when Omaha was but a map and consisted of Missouri river, a ferry boat, a camp of Indians and a few white stakes to mark the future streets, and but very tew white settlers. A graphic account was given of the strug gles and poverty of the early pioneers fol lowing the panic of 1S67, the temporary spurt Into activity again by the discovery of gold near what is now Denver, and the rivalry between Omaha and Bellevue; the first Inception, and the ultimate building of the Union Pacific railroad. He said: "The young men who came here In the early day were men who had the stuff In them; though not all religious they saw that this world could not get along without God. It was Reuben Gaylord, who aa a missionary first brought Sunday across the Missouri river, and with it the influence of moral force, that vanguard which con quered the wilderness There were some bad men here then, but not so bad as they were afterward." Dr. Miller paid a glowing tribute to Governor Cuming and the great work that he accompllahed. He spoke of Governor Cuming's first Thanksgiving proclamation as a masterpiece of English diction and rhetoric. Nor was he leas stinted In his praise of Edward Crelghton, Poppleton, Woolworth, the two Kountzes and others as types of young Christian manhood who ought to and succeeded In building up a moral community and a community Ot homes. Their faith in Omaha and by the sublimity of their faith, were at last re warded In seeing the struggling settle ment become one of the metropolitan cities of the west. The entire address of Dr. Miller, which occupied an hour and a half in its delivery, waa full of interesting reminiscences and held the closest attention of the audience throughout. Judge Slabaugh was to speak upon the future of Omaha, but Instead of talking on that subject said: "We have been so entertained by the address of Dr. Miller and are so full of the splendid thoughts that he has expressed of the early days and the evolution of Omaha, and his hope for Its future, that we cannot do better than to enjoy the reflection of them. Let the inspiration that he has given us stimu late us to undertake better things for Omaha. Cities are but a means to an eitd. Aa the pioneers bullded its founda tions for us, let us complete the structure In making it a better and more beautiful city. Let us stand for, think and talk ot Omaha, as these pioneers did, and carry on the work they began." The meeting cloaed with the audience reciting in unison the Twenty-third psalm, and the benediction by President Chase of the Christian Endeavor union.' WHY HE WHIPPED HIS WIFE Harry Templeton Takes a "Soak" at Hi Spouse Booaaao Sho Waated ' to Go with Him. Fishing with Henry Templeton of 7.713 South Tenth stret is an art. When ha gets out his tin can and reel it is for busi ness and not for amusement, and therefore does not care to have a woman near him. This love of art landed him at the city Jail last night on a charge ' of beating his wife. The woman went to the police station night before last and complained that' her husband had struck her In the mouth. The trouble, ahe said, started because she wanted to go fishing with him. He em phatically and resolutely refused to let her; first, because on general principles of anglers, and, secondly, because she was not In a condition to accompany him on account of ill health. Bhe retaliated by saying that It was because ot her indis position that she did net wish to be left alone, and asked him to either stay at home or let her go fishing. But he had made up his mind to try bis luck, and, ae much as he loved her, he loved his art more. Tears and sobs were of no avail. He adhered to his resolution. When her complainings grew too much for his pa tience, she declares he struck her in the face, cutting her Up. J. F. Templeton, a brother of the hus band, who stops In the same house, waa also arrested, the charge against him being one of disorderly conduct. He is said to have tried to show his sister-in-law by loud arguments where she was making a mistake.
