TROUBLE IN ASSESSMENT
Btat Board Bothered How to Distrib
ute Valuation of Road.
BURLINGTON IS WORST PUZZLE

(From Staff Corre snondert.)
LICOLN, June 1. (Special.) The State
Board of Assessment Is up In the air over
the distribution of railroad property, which
It assessed last ' week. Heretofore the
board have alwaya assessed the property
and then apportioned the valuea to the vart
otia llnea going to make up the ayatema.
'Thla apportionment haa been arbitrary, but
In moat Instances the railroad representa
tlvea have approved the distribution.' Tills
year the Burlington property was returned
aa one ayatem and the varloua corporations
which In the paat have made up thla aya
tem were not mentioned. The board haa
about decided, however, to distribute the
value of the physical property Just the aame
aa It did In the past, even though the varl
oua corporatlona no longer exist. But It
haa not decided what to do with the value
of the franchise and the value of the roll
Inn stock under the terminal tax law.
The average value of the Burllrjgrton In
round numbers la almost $42,000 a mile. Th
main line of the Burlington Is valued at
t,000 a mile. The physical properly of the
Burlington was valued at about )17,000 a
mile. Or.e board member figured thla would
maka the value of the franchise and rolling
stock about 126,000. Should the valuation be
apportioned according to mileage at the
average value per mile, the main line of
the Burlington would be worth f69,000 a mile
Instead of $86,000 a mile, and practically all
of the Jess valuable roads would be enor
mously Increased. Thla procedure would
cause a loss In railroad property under the
terminal tax law to every town on the main
line of the oad, .with', the possible excep
tlon of a few of those towns which have i
lot of sidetracks or brafich line trackage.
... While some members of the board are of
the opinion ' the' proper way to make the
apportionment ' would be to distribute the
valuation ns under the unit system. Secre
tary of State J unk In la of the opinion the
fair way would be to first distribute tha
value of the physical property according
to main line, and branches, making an
arbitrary division or valuation, and then
add to each mile the average value of the
franchise and rolling stock. The board
will reach a decision In the matter shortly
or at least It hopes to. It will meet on
Wednesday morning. .
City Bonds Burned Up.
Ed Lawrence, bond clerk In the office
of the state auditor, touched a match to
$20,000 worth of Holdrege sewer bonds this

Colonel John J. Ryder, deputy labor com
missioner, has finally secured backing In
his efforts to enforce the fire escape law.
This morning he received a letter from the
Nebraska Travelers' afcsoclatlon giving him
the names of fifteen hotels upon which fire
escapes are needed and asking htm to Bee
to It that the proprietors of these places
get right with the law. Of the fifteen a
great majority had already been served
with notices by the commissioner. In reply
to the letter Mr. Ryder informed the repre

general proposition the fire escape law had
been treated aa a Joke by th hotel keepers.
for the reason the commissioner had no
funds with which to keep on their tracks.
The law requires the commissioner to first
visit the place before ordering an escape;
then thirty days later make a second visit
to see if the work Is progressing; then a
third trip to examine the escape. Thla has
to be done out of an appropriation of $3.flno
for all purposes. Mr. Ryder Informed the
association that shortly he will begin a
prosecution at Crete, because It Is close by
and It will not cost much money to push It.
He ca.led upon the traveling men to keep
pushing the matter and keep agitating, to
the end that the next legislature may make
sufficient appropriation to enforce the
law.

Lett Two young men of this city, In a
venturesome act of gallantry, walked from
Red Cloud eastward one night last week
to meet two young ladles who were re
turning from Guide Rock. They expected
to ride back with their fair companions,
and the dream of the pleasures that awaited
them gave strength to their tired limbs
is they plodded through the dark and the
mud, mile after mile, until Just thla aide
of Guide Rock their ears were gladdened
by the sound of the approaching vehicle.
Then, to their chagrin, the chaperon of
the young ladles disregarded their entreat-
lea to be allowed in the carriage, and the
youthful swains 'slowly and sadly trod the
lonesome way home, uncheered by the
companionship they had endured so much
to enjoy, llut trere are many years befhi-e
them, and there will be other times, and

CONCERNING THE NEW HATS
Decided Innovations Appear In Ma

' Shapes.
There Is to a certain degree a sameness
In the line, of the modish hata, for though
there are alight variations upon the large
crowned shape with brim drooping at one
side and rolling more or less sharply on the
other, this general Idea Is ubiquitous In the
season's millinery, and the turbans and big
crowned draped models with frill brim are
almost the only radical departures from the
rule which have achieved much popularity.
There were dlaplayed recently two hat.

c.pllka fashion and trimmed solely by a
scarf of printed cotton. Imitating the old
tolle de Jouy designs and coloring;. These
cottons, which have been a Parisian fad
for two summer seasons, are having con
siderable prominence In late millinery, and
some charming models for country wear
are made up entirely In cretonne or kin
dred material with full crowns and with
the wide brims faced In straw, echoing one
of the colors emphasised In the printed
material.
The use of cottons has opened the way
for further Innovations In the same line,
and among models recently imported are
tome very fetching hats made of plain
tone ginghams or chambray with facing of
straw and scarfs matching this facing.
One of the smartest models of this kind
waa of a medium blue In'the tone familiar
In chambray and gingham and was faced
In black rough straw.
A wide scarf of black liberty satin was
draped around the high crown and knotted
at the drooping side of the wide brim which
rolled upward at the other side. Above
this black scarf a fine plaiting of whits
lingerie material stood up against the
crown. Increasing Its apparent height, and
a similar plaiting fell out over the brim
from below the acarf.
This description doubtlesa glvss an Im
pression of the blsarre. but In fact -this
summer hat, designed for wear with sum

Mysterious Shooting Affray on One of
Lata Street Cars.
MATTER NOT REPORTED TO POLICE
Georcre Prena Is the Victim, bat th
' Man Who Did the Shootlntt In
knona to lllm or to, the
Ofllcera.
A mysterious shooting affray occurred
late Saturday night on Motor car No. 24S
of tlrs street railway. Tho man shot was
George Trena, L37 South Nineteenth. He
was shot on the car between Q and N
streets by a party who Is unknown to the
police and to the wounded man. The shot
entered Prena's thigh, the bullet lodging
deeply In the fleshy part, but broke no
bones and seemed not to be dangerous, ex
cept tho usual contingencies of a gun-shot
wound. He was taken to Dr. K. I.. De
Lanney's office. The doctor did not extract
the bullet, but bound up the wound, as It
seemed to be one which Interfered little
with the man's walking. Afterwurd the
man went home, but n.ude no complaint to
the police.
ine doctor said the wound might prove
serious as the exact location of tho bullet
was not known. The only report of the
affair was by the doctor to T.ic police, and
this contained no clue to the identity of
the man who fired the shot. According to
the doctor, Prena and a few friends took
the car at Q street, and while there an
Albright car came up "behind from which
the stranger and a young woman boarded
the same car. The haste of the party or
some other cause brought out a remark
from Prena and his friends which angered
the last arrivals. The young man took up
the slighting remark directed to the woman
and a quarrel followed, which ended in t.'
shooting. The young man Jumped off the
car and ran away, leaving the woman on
the car alone. The wounded man was taken
to Dr. De Uanney's office.

ket at considerable length. He said: "The
hide business, and with it, the leather busi
ness, is pretty slow Just at present.
Leather goods have been extensively manu
factured In the last year or two and since
last fall the output has consisted of the
stock In the warehouse and not for newly
manufactured articles. This has naturally
reflected on the manufacture of all kinds
of leather goods. This haa In turn reduced
the prices paid for all tianies of leather
producing hides. The tanneries, however,
are buying quite freely at the reduction,
in a few days the good short-haired hides
will be on the market. Wo expect to pur
chase the supply before what Is known as
the 'grub season' arrives, which is late
In lie summer."
