WANTS TO USE BACK TAXES

IteaUt In L'onrta.
Mayor Tom Hoctor will not be balked In
his Intention of using the back taxes to
fill up depleted funds as lontr as he can
get the council to pais resolutions appro
priating money wherewith to pay special
counsel for doing what the city attorney
and the city tteasurer say la not the law.
Last night Hoctor had the council ap
propriate $200 to pay a special attorney
for fighting to have the back taxes
thrown Into the hands of the mayor and
council to be put Into depleted funds as
they see fit City Treasurer Martin,
holding that tho mayor's course was il
legal, refused to pro rate the back taxes
Into the empty funds and his stand was
approved b' tho city attorney's office,
which has long fought to build up the In.
tercst and sinking fund Instead of spend
Ing money to build up political machines.
Assistant City Attorney S. L.. Winters,
who was present at tho meeting of the
city council last night when the resolu
tion appropriating the $200 waa passed,
said that tho mayor and council would
be enjoined from spending the city's
money. "If the mayor wants to test thr
case let him pay for It out of his own
pocket," said Winters.
Frank Johnson, who has operated n
news stand at Twenty-fourth and N
streets for many years, was granted per
mission to hold the same place Indefi
nitely. The permission was granted by
the council In unanimous agreement. A
number of paving contract bids were
opened and ordered tabulated by tho city
engineer.

Toney Mingo or Benco, as he writes
his name, who says he was held up and
robbed of 170 Sunday night at Twenty
eighth and F streets, was resting easily
last night at tire hospital. City Physician
E. J. Shanahan, who attended the man
says that while his condition seems fair
there is no possibility of telling the out
come ot Benco's wounds until several
days havo passed. A number ot the
shots fired at the man penetrated the
back and entered the region ot the kid
neys. The surgeons say this Is a danger

Benco sticks to his story that he was
held up.
Detectlvo Sheahan says that If any
crime waa committed In the shooting it
took place In Omaha.
Slot Machines Running.
As yet the Blot machines are running
in South Omaha notwithstanding the
peremptory writ of Judge Troup com
manding the Fire and Police Board to
assemble forthwith and dispose of tho
gambling business In South Omaha.
Mayor Hoctor haB made some statements
about applying, for a, reppenlnz of the
case, but it Is not thought the applica

one of the alleged owners ot tho slot

opening the cose. He said last night

Commissioners and
Mayor Dahlman
Speak to Club
Mayor Dahlman and Commissioners j
Kugel and Hummel spoke at a meeting
of the Kenwood-Fairfax Improvement
club at Fortieth nnd Pratt streets ,lant
night. The questions of the gas fran
chise, the charter and street car exten
sions were discussed by tho commission
ers and members ot tho club.
Commissioner Kugel spoko In favor of
th-; gas franchise and the charter and In
addition cxplalnod the conditions In his
department that prevented him from
making grade Improvements, etc., In tho
vicinity of Kenwood addition. The addi
tion Is badly In need of grading, side
walks and paving, but Mr. Kugel showed
the club that such Improvements were
practically Impossible under present dis
tribution of city funds.
Commissioner Hummel said he hoped
ths proposed charter would meet the ap
proval of the public because his depart
ment would recolve $30,000 more In ap
propriations than It receives under the
present regime. "And," said Mr. Hum
mel, "If the charter is passed I can as
sure all property owners that I will spend
the additional fund as judiciously as I
am endeavoring to spend the appropria
tions I receive at present. Each part of
the city will receive an equal and Impar
tial share of the money."
Mayor Dahlman devoted most of his
remarks to the gas franchise, declaring
tht It would benefit the rank and file
of the people and not certain would-bo
politicians who are fighting the ordi
nance, fairly and unfairly.
Tho mayor also advised the club not to
advocate seven street car fares for a
quarter, but to work for extensions
which they need far more than cheaper
faros.
A resolution In favor of tho gas fran
chlse waB presented to tho club and car-'
rlcd unanimously. A resolution asking
for street car extensions and condemn
ing seven fares for a quarter was also
passed.

Of all tho towns that havo been en
tertained this year at tho Ak.Sar-Bcn
Den, the little city of Kennard last nlKht
mado tho greatest showing. From an act
ual count, 0) por cent ot the registered
population camo Into Omaha, and In au
tomobiles, to attend tho performance at
the Den.
The delegation added to Its laurels with
a brass band, which headed tho long
lino of machines that traveled Into tho
city. Tholr ride down Farnam street en
route to tho Den In itself was an at
tractive display of u llttlo town's afflu
ence nnd Interest. The vlsltors's tickets
given out to them at tho Den numbered
nearly 300. Tho band marched Into tho
building nnd took the conspicuous place
In tho stand, whero It entertained be
tween tho acts of tho show with several
good numbers.
Besides Kennard. clmost the entlro
membership of tho Trl-Clty Ben Franklin
club was In attendance. Thla club stands
highest of all Omaha organltatlons for
membership In tho Knights of Ak-Sar-Ben
and its fihowInK came nearer to tho 100
per cent mark.
Shooter in Uvldcuce.
And third and last, "but not least,"
were some 300 trap-shooters, who are In
Omaha to participate In tho western
handicap shoot. There wero representa
tives among them from cities and towns
In various parts of tho United States.
Homo special stunts were Injected Into
tho show for their benefit. "Doo" Fry,
tho crack shot of last year's circus, ap
peared as a special number, repeating
his circus act. It mado a great hit, liter
ally and figuratively.
Harry L. Tostevln, president of the
Trl-Clty Ben Franklin club, was tho
chairman of tho speaking program, which
by tho way, brought out an unusual list
ot wits. Kvcry Bpcnkcr had few remarks
to make and besides tho splco ot brevity,
each had humor n-plcnty.
