AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA
Delinquent Tux List Turned (Her to
the County Treasurer.
MAJOR PORTION SPECIAL TAXES
Board of Kdnentlon Rejects All Bids
for Bit fr Mannnl Training
Sehool nnd New Propoaot
to Bo Asked.
The delinquent tax list were aent to the
county treasurer yesterday by the city
treasurer of South Omaha. These lists are
of property In arrears for taxes, both gen-
eral and 'special. Th latter kind of taxes
re farther In arrears than the general
levy. The amount also are larger. The
eputy treasurer said the lists of delin
quent were much larger than he had sup
posed. Collections In the main have been
pretty good. Most of the property delin-
uent 1 undejlraller or at leurt pay no
ncome. A few good piece have been
listed.
In order to redeem the property o listed,
It will be necessary for the owner to settle
additional cost of filing. The casual esti
mate of delinquent property I about Sc00,000
In actual value, and would produce about
17,000 In taxea under the general levy; but
under th special assessment much more
In arrears.
In the" case of the special assessment, the
owners of the property on Thirtieth street,
who have been assessed to pay the cost of
paving the street, have there property listed
a delinquent for the reason that In the
recent litigation to invalidate the tax the
city won. The case Is now on appeal before
the supreme court.- The property owner
are hoping for a reversal nnd have there
fore refused to pay tho ipeciat assessment.
n the case of the Twenty-fourth street
paving, conditions are exactly reversed. In
this case the city lost In the litigation and
appealed. The treasurer therefore made no
attempt to collect the special assessment,
and none of this property ha been listed
a delinquent. Many of the delinquencies
in other case arise from the laying of
sidewalks and grading.
Board of Education.
The Board of Education held a special
meeting last evening to discuss the site
for the manual training department. It
wa decided that the Bites offered were
too high for the board to purchase. These
sites were the southeast corner of Twenty
fourth and J and th northeast comer of
Twenty-fourth and K. The board there.
fore rejected all bids and Instructed the
secretary to readvertise for a site lying
between L and J street and between Twen
ty-fourth and Twenty-aecond streets. Thl
gives a muoh larger territory and tt 1
hoped that several vacant lots adjoining the
present high school campus may be offered
On such a site the board propose to erect
a fin building for the use of the depart
ment.
The detail of getting the work of the
new year started were discussed briefly by
the superintendent. He sain the present
enrollment In the grade wa about 1.100,
fully equal to the largest enrollment last
year. Thl I good,- in view of the fact
that a new parochial school had been
opened and two grades of beginner were
not yet admitted at West Bide school on
account of repair. ' ' '
Pond Halt Sewer Work.
Hannon at Craig, contractor, received no.
tlce from the city a few" days ago to ro-
sume work on the N atrett gulch sewer,
which waa dropped last spring during the
exceedingly wet weather. iLhe, work ceased
under the Intersection of Twentieth and N
streets. The company had 'hiurh water to
contend with, Dan Hannon saldV "I don't
propose to resume work there until the
Olty drains out the pond south of N street
where the torm water was turned. The
water there la fifteen feet deep and It Is
so nearly over the point where we work
that tt flow in constantly through the soil
nd la dangerous. If a sudden cave In at
that point resulted it would let In enough
water to drown all the men before they
could get out The city ha been making
some effort to drain thl pond, but aa yet
have m,t succeeded.
Curbing Stakes Set.
The city engineers yesterday staked tho
center and curb lines of E street from
Twenty-fourth to Twenty-eighth. The ob
Ject of the work Is preliminary t'o paving
which ha been petitioned for by all of the
resident owning property along the street,
Tba engineer will submit his estimates of
the cost of the paving at an early date.
On receipt of this the council can Introduce
an ordinance to advance the Improvement.
