LINCOLN, Aug. 1. (.'pedal.) The mate
board of equalization haa notified a num
ber of rounty assessors to be present at a
' bearing to be held tn the office of the
governor August 9. The assexsofs notified
. are of thoH counties where the board con

Immediately after the board passes on
' these counties In .which changes will be
made, It will likely make tha lev.y for ihU
year. Whether there will be any reduction
In the levy as compared with last year de
pends upon the stater- debt on the day the
board decides to make the levy. While
there Is no debt at this lime, the debt will
. begin to run up this fall, and there Is no
"money at this time coming In to take care
of the Mill.'
The work of the board has been unusually
slow, owing to the continued absence of
the governor, and Htate Treasurer Hrlan
from the state house. Mr. Brian Is with
his family taking an outng In Colorado
and Governor Shallenberger la making hay
while the sun shines as a Chautauqua

Carr'a Arrest. Will Famish Test.
The arrest of Dr. E. Arthur Carr, secre
tary of the new board of health, yesterday
on the charge of opening mall addressed to
Dr. B. J. C. Sward, secretary to the old
board of health, will In all probability bring
about a test' of the law enacted last winter
which permits the governor to name the
board of secretaries to the board of health.
Heretofore this authority has been vested
In the slate board of health, composed of
the governor, land commissioner and state
superintendent. . Award was appointed by
this board and when the legislature changed
the law the governor appointed Carr.
Sward and the old board refused to turn
over the records to Carr, so he took It upon
himself to open, .mall, addressed to Sward
as secretary. -Dr. Carr broke Into prom-
. lnenre during the late campaign by sending
out letters attacking President Taft, using
for his purpose the letter head of the Civic
league of Lincoln, of which he had formerly
been secretary.
No Union, Depot.
Lincoln seems about as fur away from
a union depot as U has ever been. The
- Burlington haa offered IU depot for a
union station and the matter seemed to
be In a fair way of settlement, but now
tr lot .of wholesalers . have - come . across
with serloua objections and there may
nothing result from- the offer. Several
- locations for. a union depot have been dis
cussed, but some one lias objections and
all that haa resulted so far has been talk.

SAW FARRAGUTJIE0 TO MAST
Recollections Gassrr fin the
Adsalrai'a Ship In Mobile
Rart
Henry Wright of Springfield. Mass., re
calls some Interesting experiences while
serving as a gunner wtth Admiral Farra
gut on the flagship Hartford at Mobile bay
during the three years' service In the navy
In the civil war. - -
Mr. Wright, w ho aw ' Farragut lashed
to the mast, was a prlnoner for a time In
Llbby prison, did blockade duty, partici
pated In the engagements at Chesapeake
bay and Hampton Reads and was In the
foreground at the Mobile bay fight.
He enlisted In the federal navy In Ailg
ust, lvj, and was mustered out of the ser
vice In Boston three years later. In No
vember, 1S62, he was on the Daylight, a
blockading Steamer, off the North Caro
line coast, w hen a' small 'blockade runner
was forced ashore, and was a member of
one of three boat ctews ' detailed to burn
the schooner, but "all 'tlire'e : were capsized
by the heavy waves hnd forced' to 'give up
the attempt. " ,''
Jutit before Vfi'e battle' of Mobile bay he
was transferred to'fh'e Hartford.' and after
that engagement he Va's detailed to the
Seminole, on Which ho remained until the
expiration of his term 'of ' enlistment. In
those days mines arid,, torpedoes were far
from being perfected and gunners on the
warships fought behind wooden instead of
iron walls.
Mr. Wright said: . ''J3 tr.a, rig'e to relate none
of our gun crew was Jnjured at Mobile in
the' fight which lasted 'from a. m. to 2
p. m., althotth. there .were many lossi s
in me gun crews on .e.ac;i plie of us. I
happened to w itness a' most peculiar fa
tality. A shot from . the . Tennessee went
through the side pf the Hartford, burst
and cut off both legs' pf Tom Clark, a
powder boy. He threw lip his hands as he
fell and a smaller shot severed both arms
above the elbow
"Another shot from the Tennessee hit
a quarter gunner, who . happened to be
stooping, and cut away a large part of
his body, and then destroyed our port
gun.
"The men of the .Hartford were under
fire moft of the time, for the enemy knew
that Admiral Farragut was on our ship.
The Tennessee's gurm made terrible work
of us, but we were unable to make much
of an impression on it as Its sides were
armored with railroad Iron seven Inches
thick.
"We always thought that we were safe
guarded somewhat by the anchor chains,
which, to a certain- extent screened the
sides of the Hartford and kept many shots
from putting our boilers 'Out of commis
sion. The enemy lay alongside us and
tried persistently to ram us, but we
thwarted its attempts by meeting It bow
on. '
"I once saw Admiral Farragut lashed to
the rigging of the Hartford, where he could
command an unobstructed view. It seems
that some time before the battle a rubber
hose wltn a tin mouthpiece at each end
was lashed to the mast and hung from the
top to the deck. It was to be used as a
speaking tube, as we supposed, 'by the ad
miral from aloft. .,
"Just prior to the battle, however, a gun
was placed In the top,' so the admiral, not
wishing to be In the way 'of the .gunners,
stood In the main rlggjng Just below the
top, where he could 'be close to Freeman,
our pi)ot.
"John Gallagher, one .of "the petty officers,
and not plck."K,now'les, a hjx'tory'has it,
was the man who Jas'hel tjie," admiral to the
rigging. Captain Dra;tQfl ordered Knowles
to secure .the admjraj ptq "the rigging for
he feared that he. rulght .fall In the stress
of battle, as he was rhore than 60 years
old at that time. As Know;les went to
carry , out the .order he found Gallagher In
the rigging, Just below the admiral, and
told him that Captain. Drayton wanted the
admiral secured. . I happened to be coming
along the quarterdeck and Knowles told me
to bring him a gasket, . which I did, find
threw It up to him. Gallagher then pro
ceeded to lash the admiral to the rigging.
"When Farragut untied himself the gas
ket fell Into the pool xt blood where young
Clark and the quarter gunner lay. After
the fight I washed the rope, according to
rule on shipboard, and" laid It away in a
locker. At that time ' we never dreamed
that this little Incident of the lashing would
make Farragut more famous than any
other event In his' life as a fighter." Bos

French and Russian foreign ministers, M.

Fallleres and King Edward will result lu
closer ties between the three powers.

Emperor Nicholas , to Cowes. This w ill be
the first .official, visit of the Russian mon
arch iq Great Britain, his visit in 1886 to

portance and as sealing the triple entente

STREET PREACHERS JAILED
Make ' So Msrh Noise that Clerks
in tbe Poatofflee Cmn'i
Work.
Charles Rich and George Lamhrarkes
were arrested early Sunday evening by
Officer Dan Lahey on Capitol' avenue op
posite the poatofflee, and were locked up
on a - charge of disturbing the peace by
making loud and uni'tual noises.
Rich and his companion have been
preaching- on the- street for' some time.
They deliver a lecture profusely Illustrated
with charts. So far as anyone has been
able to find out the principal point In their
discourses Is opposition to all churches.
They grew so loud last evening that they
Interfered with the work of the clerV In
the postofflce. Even after they were ar
rested they, .continued to lecture and with
Offlaer Lahey for an audlenoe kept up their
remarks, all tha .way. to the police station.
A Good Snb)ee. f
President Taft seldom turns down a
newspaper photographer. He deallzes. that
the photographer and the artist today are
almost as Important as the reDorter In
covering news events, '"an! ' so when he is
abroad in the land on public occasions he
is seldom opposed to helping out the pho
tographer detailed to get pictures of hint
For example, on his arrival at ' Beverly
on tha morning of July 4. last, relates the
Boston Globe, his military aid, Captain
Butt, told the newspaper men that If they
would not bother the President on his ar
rival he would try to arrange for a meet
ing for them at 3 p. m., when they would
have an opportunity of "snapping" the
president.
True to his word, Captain Butt reported
at the main, drive to the Taft cottage just
before I p. m. "Are you ready, gentlemen?"
he asked the waiting photographers. Re
ceiving an affirmative answer, ha said:
"Very well, then, fall in," and they did.
Soon after the arrival of the rameia men
at the cottage, the president came out on
the plaxxa of the summer White House,
and after being Introduced, told the pho
tographers to begin.
They snapped him. to their hearts con
tent, !n all sorts of positions. Then they
posed him and took all sorts of views of
him, and not until every plate was used
UP did the camera men let up.
Photographers who have pictured Presi
dent Taft say that he .Is one of the best
subjects they have even snapped, that he
la always glad to do anything in reason
they ask Mm to do and he never appear
bored or out of sorts at delays in making
his picture. - .

At the Theaters
Movlug Pictures at the Bo.
A scries of revolutionary scenes are shon
at the Boyd for the first three days of
the week and so elaborate In detail are
they that staging them before the pic
ture machine must have Involved as much
work as putting on a spectacular drama.
Beginning with Patrick Henry's speech to
the Virginia deputies, the observer Is shown
many of the principal Incidents of the war
for Independence, including the battle of
Bunker Hill, Washington's taking com
mand of the Continental army, crossing the
Icy waters at Trenton and the route of the
Hessians, the siege of Torktown and the
surrender of Cornwallls.
One dramatic and well acted sketch con
cerns Itself with a burglary, the arrest of
an Innocent man and his being set free
through the skllfull detective work of his
daughter. Besides this there are several
comedy pictures which are really funny.
Mixed Program at the Rnrrrooa.
' An elaborate bUt la offered at the Bur
wood for seven plqlure sketches are shown
bn the machine. M which four are In a
comedy vein and one dramatic. Another,
called "The Faun." Is a mythical concep
tion, and the seventh shows a carnival In
Norway. The vaudeville, numbers Include
an illustrated . ojg delightfully given by
Miss Daisy liigglns. The two Ingrams do
a juggling act and wallop the punching
bag. Chris Christopher plays the violin
In an ecoentrla. fashion, but gets sweet
tones from the instrument. The De Lano
brothers are two extremely skillful ath
letes who do some wpnderful hand bal
ancing. The program attracted an audi
ence which filled the house afternoon and
evening.
The Maid of the Mill" at the Air
