At ths February meeting- of the Cltjr
Board of Equalisation, which will convene
on the first' Monday of the month, pro
posed ipaclal Improvement ta levies ag
(trejatltif 1195,000 will be considered. This
will be the largest amount of special tax
levlee ever before a single board of equal
ization session. While a great deal of the
total Is due to the pavlnc activity last
year, yet a large proportion Is the result
of a systematic effort by city authorities
to reassess old, levies declared Invalid by
the courts. '
The matter of making reassessments of
this kind wherever permitted by law and
admitted by court decisions knocking out
the former taxes ' for various reasons,
mostly technical, has been a much prom
ised Innovation at the city hall, but only,
recently hss the legal department really
started the work.
Hundreds of thousands of dollars of spe
cial sewer and paving taxes have been re
sisted by property owners mi purely tech
nical grounds. With taxes of this kind
made uncollectable nothing remained for
the city to do but to Issue bonds to cover
the debt created or make relevles. If the
latter are- possible. In some districts the
reassessments cannot ba nade, but the
legal department has given notice that
wherever IV Is pdsslhle the program will
be carried ditt.
Proposed Reassessment.
Following Is s list of the reassessments
to come before the February equalisation

to devise a plan satisfactory to the prop

the old district and Is bounded by Thirty
second and Thirty-eighth streets and ths
alley between Lafayette und Hamilton
and the alley between Webster and Burt

which- is exempted because of a boulevard
donation. Protest may be filed against this
plan.

the Public. . ,
County Storekeeper Glansmaii and his
assistant can always tell without going
outside whether the weather is cold or nut.
A sharp fail in temperature brings to the
county store on St. Mary's avenue, just
above Eighteenth, a much larger number of
people than Is ordinarily the case.
Saturday and Monduy the demands on the
storekeeper for food and fuel were about
doubled, compared to what it has been
recently. People were seen there, as wus
''the case during the cold weather of last
year, who ordinarily never ask for aid.
Widows, deserted wives, children whose
parents are sick, men who for one reason
or another are unable to work or cannot
get the kind of employment they are tilted
for all these flock to the county store.
Their prayers for" aid are nut refused If it
be shown that they are worthy. Mr. Qlass
nian, last winter and during the summer
and fall, managed to maKu a fairly com
plete list of the chronic eases that the
county is compelled to aid each year, either
through the store or at the county hospi
tal, lie now has on his list 375 Datixins
who are known as "regulars." Outside of
these, whose condition is positively known,
investigation is made of new applicants.
If their tales are verified they are helped.
County Aid Liberal.
The county is not stingy lu its doles
when the need is present, lien, women
and children, black and white, carry away
baskets or bags tilled with an assortment
of provisions, made up of tea or coffee.
sugar, flour or meal, dry suit pork, crackers,
and a little of all the neceasiies of life.
The applicants name what they want and
draw accordingly, as to kind, but in fied
quantities. Saturday's issue, fairly repre
sentative of the cold weather output, was
as follows: Hour. 826 puunds, ranging up
to X pounds to a family; sugar, 13s pounds,
in pound packages; coffee, S3 pound pack
ages; tea, la pounds in half-pound packages;
pork, 167 pounds, in 3-pound pieces and up;
beans, U' pounds; rice, 34 pound packages;
oatmeal, (3 pounds, in half-pound pack-'.gs;
corn meal. 1J0 pound. In S-pound packages;
soap, 72 pounds; salt. 31 pounds. Coal U

may be.
Baturc.ay lb the busy day at the county
store. Children sre the messengers for
many people who eojoy the bounty of Doug
las county, and Saturday is the only day
they can get to the store. Many live at a
distance, and not all can afford to ride on
the street cars. Very often Mr. Gluasman
has to furnish street car fare for small
children or decrepit people. A spell like
the present always brings in new appli
cants, who have held off as long as possible
throuxn pride. ,
CONDUCTOR KILGORE HURT
Inlon Pacific Trainman Knocked
from Caboose and Kknll
Badly Crashed.
As the Union Pacific freight train No. M
was coming east Just this side of Papilllon
Monday morning at 8:15, the conductor, Ik
T. Kilgore, was knocked from the train
ojid probably fatally Injured. It Is not
known Just how the accident happened.
but It is presumed by the tralnmon that
Mr. Kilgore was standing on the1 steps of
the caboose, leaning out to watch a hit-
bos when tho train crossed bridge So. 13
Just this side of Papilllon, and not S'-elng
the bridge he was struck and knocked
from the train. His head is badly bruised,
his skull is fractured and it is thougnt he
will not recover.
He was brought to Omaha and taken
to St. Joseph s hospital by Dr. Smith, tl.e
company physician, but has not been able
to tell anything about how the accident
happened.
Ho tulked Irrationally at the hospital
during the afternoon, but In the evening
seemed to be fully conscious, and began
to rest easier. Some of the trainmen think
that Kllgoi-e was struck by a low bridge
while on top of the train, but us he was
not mlBsed for nearly an hour after tho
fall, no one having noticed It, and as he
has made no statement while rational, the
circumstances of the accident are still In
doubt.
