Fig, tat Will Be Con tinned tu Realst
Paying; Something l.tke Fifteen
Thousand Dollars.
The last fight over the Herman Kourrtse
Inheritance tax will come before the su

settle whether or not Douglas county is to
receive something like $16,000 from the es
tate of the late millionaire.
Mr. Kountze transferred property to
Augustus KounUe to be held in trust pend
ing his death. The county has claimed
there Is a specific provision In the inheri
tance tax law which meets such a device
and the Kountze heirs have asserted that
the property went to New York and out of
this jurisdiction.
Deputy County Attorney Ellick, who won
the, case In the county, court and on appeal
to district court, will represent Douglas
county before thu supreme court.

. Two fresh eggs, done to a turn by the
motherly ' hand vf Mis. Bessie Gibbon,
matron at the police station, formed part
of the breakfast of Bennie Holley, a 14-year-old
deaf and dumb lad who Is being
lodged by the police until he can be sent
back to Boone City, la., from his home at
which place he ran away some time ago.
And fresh eggs are not Included on the
menu of the prisoners and lodgers at the
city Jail, either, 'so the question as to
where the delirious food came from Is un
solved. Poor Bennie can't tell, or else he
won't, and none of the officers or even the
matron at the police station can figure out
how two nice fresh white eggs came tu be in
the pocket of the little deaf mute, who
has been away from his farm home for
days.
bennie was picked up at the depot Wed
nesday night by Officer Glover. Thursday
morning he held a little pud-and-pencil
conversation with Oficer Reigelman in tlm
matron's rWim at the Jail, and said he
wanted to go home. He says his father a
name is J, Dew, but he is reticent about
saying more concerning his people or
where they live. He has bt-en attending
school and says he doesn't know how long
he has been away from the people from
Boone City, with whom he lived on Twenty-seventh
street. '
