WOMAN SMASHES WINDOW
THROUGH WHICH MAN WINKED
Emulating the example of another mili
tant energy of Demon Rum, Mrs. Jennie
nichardson, 2628 California street, picked
up a cobble stone yesterday afternoon at
Sixteenth and Chicago streets and
smashed a $200 plate glass window in the
Safe saloon. To down the demon, bow
ever, was only an incidental object. To
hit a leering face was her purpose and
he was so careless in aiming that she
hit an innocent drinker, her husband.
Some one told Mrs. Richardson that
her husband was in the saloon and when
he went to see for herself, a man stand
ing near the window, mistook her in
quiring glance and winked. She then
threw the brick and when the patrons
of the place rushed out to see what bad
v..nn . nh ninkd ii it mother rock
www ft . w
and threw It at her Husband. . She wa
arrested and charged with disturbing the
peace and disorderly conduct
In police court Mrs. Richardson said
her husband did not contribute to either
her support or that of their small child.
She said she would rather be In Jail than
live with a drunken man, and that she
did not car what the Judge did with her.
She was discharged. Richardson was
given ninety day In Jail.

HEW OCCUPATION ,TAX PLAN
City Attorney ii Drawing Ordinance
to Include New List.
ALL , C03PHSI0NERS FAVOR IT
Tax la to.' Be Levied on All Business
and Prof eaetonal Men in the
City New Wheel Ordi
nance 17b.
An occupation tax, to be levied on every
business and professional man in the city
of Omaha, is the glut Of ah ordinance
which is now In the making to be brought
before the city council. This ordinance
has 'the favor of every one of the city
commissioners and when it is brought
before them for . their consideration it
will go through without any hitch.
In addition to this occupation tax is
the wheel tax, which will be levied
against every vehicle in Omaha. With
these two extra taxes, the city commis
sioners say they will reduce the tax levy
on real and personal property in Omaha
to a much smaller - basis than t i at
present. This occupation tax, such as
the ordinance will call for, is now In
practice in Kansas City and almost all
the larger cities of the south.
By this tax the butcher, baker, lawyer,
doctor, bootblack and corporations will
be compelled to pay In addition to their
real and personal property tax a small
amount of money .which will be placed
into a general fund for the carrying on
of the city business. It may be appor
tioned to the various departments, but
this, as yet has not been discussed. At
present the only people In Omaha paying
an occupation tax are the ice. coal and
material dealers. But the new ordinance
will affect every business man and
woman In Omaha.
The wheel tax ordinance which will
come before the city counoll within a short
while will be put to such use that the
people paying It will save money Instead
of losing it. The money wlU be placed
In a fund to be used for the repairing of
streets, paving and all other roads. The
automobile owner who is required to pay
a a fee of 820 will save that much on
tires, owing to the good condition of the
roads. Both these new tax ordinances
will come before the city council within
a short while. The occupation tax is now
being drawn up by City Attorney Rine
and Just how much each business and
professional man will be assessed la not
known at this time. But tho occupation
and wheel tax will both be based on a
sliding scale.
