Close of Poultry Show. Bverythlng went smoothly at the poultry show yesterday afternoon and evening. There was a fair crowd In the building all tho time. The crowds did not stay long at any time, but passed in and out regu larly. The prizes were all determined late In the evening and the ribbons were all distributed. Every local fancier had a prise of some sort, and Indeed the Ne braska fowls proved to be as good as those from New York. Some of the prize winners sold aa high as in. John Burth of Maynard sold five of his birds at good figures. John Frltx Roberts waa offered $10 for his first prlac pulled In the Buff Wynndotte class. Ho entered only two birds In the competi tion. F. A. Agnew's fowls won him a good number of prizes, as did those of If. B. Fleherty. A full list of the prize win ners will be available today, and It Is expected that the exhibit will break up this evening. Fnanclally the venture has proved a great success, considering that this Is the first exhibition In South Omaha.

Biggest Tax Payment. The largest check for taxes which haa ever been received In South Omaha was turned Into the treasury yesterday, when tho Vnlon Stock Tards company sent In Its remittance for $.13,061.49. Their check was made out for $33,074.49, but the city returned $10 which was overpaid. With this check all the large amounts have been paid up, and the city has Its finances all to the good. Of course, there will be a number of delinquents, and some of them will be In places which would surprise tho publlo if they knew. All day yesterday the treasurer was busy with collections, and after the time for the public schools to close their dally session several teachers paid their ' personal taxes.

CLERK IS STORMED BY PENSIONERS With Aid of Experienced Aaalataata and His Ovrn Experience Ha Withstands the On- lanclit. The office of County Clerk Haveily was the scene of about the only bustle caused by the transfer of the county offices mads Thursday morning. Mr. Haverly'a force was up agnlnat the pension certificate busi ness strong. There are about 300 pension ers who get their certificates made out In Omaha, and a large proportion of these always is to the fore about the first of the month. Mr. Haverly'a new clerks had ho advantage of the assistance of Deputy Frank Dewey, who knows all about the workings of the office, so everything went ; loni; nbotit 11s tlcual. Mr. Havcrly him self also has had a lot of experience, hav ing hald lb" office before. Former Clerk Drexel was on hand to render any assistance In his power, and Miss Eva Ma honey, record clerk, also was present, to make her successor. Miss Berger, acquainted with the routine of her duties. County Engineer Edqulst and his suc cessor. Herman Beal, of South Omaha, had settled their transfer Wednesday after noon, ao Mr. Beal settled In his chair as naturally aa if he had been there for months. He will retain the present force to start with and may not make any change at all, because good draughtsmen are not a plentiful commodity Just now. Later on he. will have the appointment of two Inspectors. In the Sheriff's Office. Sheriff McDonald's chief deputy, Asel fiteere. Jr.. took hold of the office promptly at the appointed hour. Being an attorney, he Is already well posted on the legal end of his duties, but an Immense amount of detail Is to be mastered. Deputies Harte and Butler were also on hand and settled down to await for what might turn up like old experienced hands. 1 he retiring sheriff. John Power, gave to bis successor, John W. McDonald, a welcome in Gaelic. McDonald, while a Oael by descent, does not speak the old tongue with fluency, hut he managed to let Power know that every thing was all right, to far as he was con cerned. Power's deputies, headed by "Billy" Cunningham, the chief, acted like a lot' of boys let out of school. Captain Henry Haze. Just resigned from the police department, was present to extend con gratulations to the new sheriff. Sheriff Power will rest for a brief spell before taking up the active management of various business enterprises In which he Is Interested. Holes In a Skimmer. Harry Deuel told his successor. Fronk Bandle. a revised version of the old yarn about the holes In a skimmer. Mr. Bandle replied that he knows not only there are holes In a skimmer, but also In a solll base ball diamond, at times. "Me a catcher," said Mr. Bandle, "and I should be able to catch on here without much trouble. Of course, Harry, If they shoot 'em In too swift I may call on you for relief, but with Pat Tobln as backstop for me we will worry along' all right." Then Mr. Deuel gathered up all his money and hla bank book and smilingly went away to ponder on the changes of life and the possibility of the supreme court taking cog nizance later of the fact that he Is still on earth and as optimistic as he ever was. Emmet G. Solomon's chair as deputy county auditor Waa vacant and will remain so until after the new Board of County Commissioners organizes January 9. An appointment to the vacancy la not expected much before February 1. Over at the county Jail ''J!m" Roach turned over to the new Jailer, George B. Stryker, his keys, likewise the requisite number of prisoners to enable Mr. Stryker to begin housekeeping In a dignified man ner, introductions to the star boarders were hardly necessary, as Stryker has been on the police force long enough to become fairly well acquainted with the accomplish ments of hla new charges. CURRENT LITERATURE. Thla year the west haa furnished scenes and material for a number of season's bocks. "Heart's Desire," by Emerson Hough Is a story of western life In the early days, whose scenes' are laid In a little I T i mining town of that name. Mr, Hoiigt "l has hunted and traveled all over the '(D west from the Mississippi to the Rockies T I and bla descriptions are of places such aa he haa seen and lived In. The ln 'oo ' habitants of Heart's Desire are men gener .rt ous, open-heurted miners and cowboys T , from different classes of society such as in have been found In mining camps before. " I The advent of women Into this man'a town even thoutsh they are members of a 'stranded" family, causes quite a commo tion. " How certain other things Including love, the law and eventually the railroads, came to Heart's Desire Is told with a naturalness and breath of open-air that adds much to the romance and Interest of the atory. Those who have read Mr. Hough's "The Mississippi Bubble," or "Tha Law of the Land," will be much more in terested In this latest story. F. B.

Nor will It be found lacking In en tertainment, but on the contrary the reader will find his belter nature stirred, a keen heartfelt Interest in this story of a thor oughly good man. Pansy's earlier writings, numbering mora than 100 books, were for younger children.

The immense proportions of the mall or der side ot the book publishing business Is not so often brought to the attention of the public aa the large aales through the book atorea.
