The general meeting of the South Omaha County club, which was to have been held this evening at the library hall, has been postponed for one week on account of the fact that many of the members of the club have been Invited to attend a brilliant social function this evening, so will be unable to be present. The meeting will therefore be held In the same place on the latter date. There will be a meeting of the directors, however, this afternoon In the office of Dr. Schlndel.

' The hustling committees hate been steadily st work and the list of membership is growing In good shape. At the meeting Of directors this afternoon their work will be discussed.

Th. dramatic entertainment given by the pupils ot Ooodwal Dtckerman at the Creighton auditorium, Twenly-flfth and California streets.

"Purp Owned by Omaha Letter Car riers." This is th. Inscription of a sliver plat, that ornaments handsome new dog collar that surrounds the neck of a com mon cur dog that for six months has d voted himself to the Interest of the Omaha letter carriers. "Purp" came from nowhere at the beginning of the last winter and Immediately installed himself at the post office, aa th. special friend of th. letter carriers. He Is a medium slsed canln. of slat, color on the back and aides, whit, feet and slate, spotted head and whit, noaxlo. H. has been making the tour of the city with the various carriers all win ter and spring. He does not stick to on. carrier In particular, but bestows his favors among all of them. Sometimes he goes with the mall wagons to the depots. "Purp" evidently is a newspaper reader and keepa close tab on dog tax time. Hence for several days he has been diffi dent about taking his chances on the streets with the dog catcher without a tag. The carriers Wednesday took up a sub scription and bought "Purp" a collar and tag. He boards at th. postofflce, all the car riers, and clerks contributing from their lunches. "Purp" has been formally adopted by the postofflce, and Is the only dog that has free run of the building. Yet at the same time he seems to know of the general Inhibition against dogs be ing permitted about the postofflce building, and In fair weather, when not on duty h. takes up his poult Ion at the carriers' entrance and keeps watch.

SUIT TO TEST LICENSE TAX Case Will Be Brought by Mabangh to Determine Validity of Brown's Opinion. It has been decided to institute mandamus proceedings to test th. validity of the opinion of the attorney general that liquor licenses are subject to taxations. On. of th. deputies will refuse to assess the li censes In his territory and County Attorney Slabaugh will bring proceedings to compel him to do so. This will furnish a speedy test of th. law In th. case. County Attorney Slabaugh has received word that the law was partially tested In Pawnee county about a year ago In a suit in district court. In th. district eourt It was held the licenses were not subject to taxation and the caee was not appealed to th. supreme court. Th. Douglas county case will probably go to the supreme court, no matter who wins out In th. lower court, in order that It may be a thorough test of th. case.
