DOUGLAS COUNTY
OFFICIALS KICK
ON ASSESSMENTS
Appear Before State Board to
, Show That Many Counties
Have Cut Down Land
Valuations
From t Staff Correspondent.
Lfticoln. Neb.. Auz. 12. (Special.)
Three Douglas county officials-
County Commissioner 1 nomas
O'Connor, Deputy County Attorney
VV. C Ramsey and County Auditor
George Anthes, appeared before ihe
state board of equalization Monday
afternoon to make complaint against
land assessments and total tax valua
tions, alleged to be inadequate in a
rfumber of western and northern
counties of the state.
. ; It was charged that in 14 counties
a less, acreage- of land is listed for
taxation this year than in 1917. The
aggregate shortage is given as 346,
499 acres. It was declared that four
counties have' reduced their assessed
, valuations on land by a total of $757,
239. Seventeen counties were named
where the total tax valuations were
decreased by the county authorities
aftec4he state tax levy had been.made.
This caused a shrinkage of $2,604,649
in the assessed valuation of the state.
It was stated at the hearing that cleri-
cal errors were largely responsible
.for' this.
Board Takes Action.
The board went on record by in
' structing its secretary to communi-
CcLlC Willi Cdlll Ul IIIC vvumiva mh-
fected and report the explanations of
fered for its consideration.
, The loss of 346,497 acres of land
and m shrinkage in land values of
$757,239 from the assessment rolls of
1918 would mean a loss in state taxes
of thousands of dollars.
I Rest of State Suffers.
The complainants set forth that the
loss of taxable property thus brought
about falls upon 1he remainder of the
state. Douglas county in 1917 re
turned a total valuation of $53,659,
827 to the state board, afterwards in
creasing the amount by an addiional
$414,919, while 17 other counties were
doing the reverse, the members point
ed out.
County Clerk Dewey of Douglas,
who was not among the party, has
furnished a written report embody
ing these facts. A recent, investiga
tion of the assessment records at the
capital by County Audior Anthes re
vcaled these figures, the statement
: says. ,
The following counties are named
as having unlawfully cut down their
total tax valuations: Burt, Chase,
Cheyenne, Clay, Gage, Hall, Keith,
McPherson. Otoe. Phelps, Pierce,
, Red Willow, Rock, Scotts Bluff,
Sherman, Thayer and Washington.
Four Counties Reduced.
The list shows the following four
counties as having reduced their land
valuations for 1918: Dakota, $318,
396; McPherson, $47,402; Nance, $220,
852; Phelps, $170,589, Total, $757,
' 239.
The counties alleged to be short in
assessed acreage this year, as com
pared with last year, together with
the number of acres missing in each
county are: Arthur, 179,728; Brown,
10,532; Cherry, 18,398; Dakota, 7,208;
Deuel, 6,449; Garden, 5,651; Keith, 4,
''10; Loup, 11,162; McPherson, 28,065;
Morrill, 5,302; Scotts Bluff, 21,667;
Sioux. 21,745; Stanton, 21,947; Thur
ston, 4,435. Total, 346499. '
One Shows Decrease.
McPherson is the only county
showing an actual decrease from last
year in the valuation of all property,
the protestants said, there being a
general increase in total assessments
throughout the state ranging from 1
to 20 per cent.'
' This is Douglas county's first kick
' to the state board that it is assessed
too high in comparison with other
counties. Heretofore complaints have
always been by other counties that
Douglas county assessments, particu
larly on merchandise, were lower than
they should be and lower in pro
' portion than the rest of the state.

LAST CURTAIN FOR
ANNA HELD AFTER
LONG LLNENSS
(Coatinaed From Far .One.)
American-stage nearly every year, ap
pearing part of that time as one of
the stars in plays produced by
Florenz Ziegfeld, jr. Miss Held sub
sequently wis married to Mr. Zieg
feld, but arter several years they sep
arated. A daughter, Liane Held, now
23 years old, born of a previous mar
riage, is now on the stage.
Anna Held had the reputation of
having played and sung in more
towns and cities than most actresses
and of dressing with even more lavish
ness than the celebrated Otero. She
was a great favorite of New York
audiences. As a star in light comedy
she was known throughout the United
States.
She had repeatedly told interview
ers that she would "never grow old,"
and'fulfilled her prediction almost to
the end. Friends say she had a won?
derful spirit, and indomitable courage.
Told by the doctors that she must die,
she is said to have gayly remarked to
r . i . '
one oi mem:
"It is the last curtain. I have lived
and I will hold out to the last it is
the spirit of Joan of Arc and the
spirit of my parentage the uncon
querable French.'
Miss Held has been ill since April
of a rare malady known as myeloma,
or disintegration of the spinal marrow
and her condition was reported sev
eral times as critical. She rallied re-
eatedly, however, and until attacked
y pneumonia a few weeks ago was
regarded as on the road to recovery.
Her physicians said that only her re
markable will power had prevented
her from succumbing long ago.
Nebraska May Be
First to Intervene
In Railroad Gse
From a Staff Correspondent.
Lincoln. Aug. 12. (Special.) The
first test case in the federal courts to
determine whether Director General
McAdoo has the constitutional power
to fix intrastate railroad rates and to
overrule s'ate or railway commission
orders may be furnished by Nebraska.
The national association of railway
commissioners is taking steps now to
intervene in the Missouri Pacific and
Rock Island two-cent-fare cases,
pending in the Lincoln federal court.
The national body may probably
ake a hand in other suits which all
the railroads ot tne state are litigating.
C. E. Elmquist, Washington repre
sentative of the national association
is sending out circular lexers to the
state commissions of Iowa, Wiscon
sin, Minnesota, Kansas, South Da
kota, Missouri, Mississippi, Okla
homa, Indiana. Illinois, Michigan and
New York, proposing that all of thosel
states prepare to participate in the
Nebraska cases, for the purpose of
maintaining the right of a state to
fix rates within its own borders.
Women Make Protest
On Suffrage Delay;
Many Are Arrested
Washington, Aug. ' 12. Another
woman's party demonstration in pro
test against the senate's delay in act
ing on the federal suffrage amend
ment was broken up today by the po
lice. Thirty-eight women participat
ing, banner carriers and . speakers
were arrested as they asembled be
fore the Lafayette .statue in the
square opposite the White House.
When the women had been released
at the police headquarters oil their
promise to appear Wednesday for
trial, 36 of them marched back to the
Lafayette statue and were rearrested.
Young Woodbine Youth
Deserts, Flees and Is Caught
Arthur Ely of Woodbine, la., want
ed to be a soldier, and, then again,
he didn't. At any rate he enlisted
some time ago and was transferred
to Battery D, 127th field artillery, at
Camp Deming, N. M. After a time,
Ely took "French leave," returning to
his home at Woodbine. Although
dressed in civilian attire he was spot
ted as a deserter by the village mar
shal and placed in jail.
The village Sherlock Holmes, with;
visions of a $50 reward for apprehend
ing a deserter, notified Ely's superior
officer at Camp Deming. . Sergt.
"Johnny" Lee, a former Omaha boy,
and Private Isaac Wolfinbarger were
detailed to go to Woodbine and take
charge of the man. In the meantime
Ely prevailed upon the marshal to
let him go to see his wife, and the
marshal accompanied him to his
wife's home. On the way Ely broke
away and streaked it for the high tim
ber. The .whole . neighborhood was
aroused. The marshal impressed
every able-bodied male citizen fn the
man hunt. Armed with shotguns,
rifles and old army muskets, the
posse, after a two-hour chase beneath
the sweltering sun cornered Ely in a
cornfield where he surrendered. The
man will be tried at Camp Doniphan.

Three Aviators Are Killed
When Plane Falls Into Bay
Pensftcola, Fla., Aug. 12. Three
student aviators of the United States
naval training school were instantly
killed here late today when a large
seaplane in which they were making
practice flights fell into Pensacola
bay.- No cause was assigned, for the
accident by the officials.
The dead men are; August Copp of
New York City; Guy B. Fraley of
Genesee, N. Y., and Garret T. Man
deville of Minneapolis. A fourth stu
dent in the plane, whose name was
not given out, escaped death

heavy counter attacks may be
launched by. the enemy.
Four Machines Downed.
An aerial observer coming into his
station shot down four machines. In
the same fighting a British pilot
chased one enemy plane to earth and
was swooping, down to finish off his
antagonist when the-man climbed out
of his machine and held up his hands
in token ot surrender.
"So I didn't kill him," the British
pilot said.
"But on my way home I met a
group of enemy machines and got a
bullet in me but managed to land in
side our lines."
The report of this incident ends
wjth the statement that the pilot died
in a hospital shortly after relating his
experience. ,
A British two-stater shot down two
enemy machines. The pilot was bad
ly wounded and fell across the con
trols. The observer secured his com
rade s body and manaeed to cet con
trol of the machine. He brought it
to earth where it crashed, but both
the occupants escaped death.
Many Thrilling Tales.
Another pilot started for home
wounded. When 10 feet above the
ground inside his own lines, he col
lapsed from loss of blood.
There are dozens of thrilline tales
of how machine after machine, skim
ming clsse to the ground, fired poilit
blank into bodies of enemy troops,
killing a great many, despite the fire
from the ground and how they wiped
out the crews of enemy machine guns
holding up the allied advance. They
also effectively attacked the poorly
constructed German tanksiefore they
ever had a chance to get into action.
Prisoners from fresh Prussian and
Bavarian divisions have been cap
tured in the past few hours. The mo
rale of these men is extremely low, a
great many of "them expressing the
opinion that Germany, twice badly
beaten in recent weeks and perhaps
having further defeats in store for
her, is on the down grade, headed for
defeat.
No More Civilians Taken
for Army Officers Camp
The Chamber of Commerce has re
ceived a telegram from the adjutant
general stating that the officers' train
ing camp at Louisville will be closed
to civilians, and that no applications
received after August 8 can be con
sidered. This was the same date on
which voluntary enlistments in the
army and navy were discontinued. -
The Chamber of Commerce had re
ceived a number of applications for
places in the camp, and these will be
given consideration, but no new ap
plications can be received.
A two weeks' camp for civilians, on
the Plattsburg order, was opened to
day at Camp Steever, Wis. The de
mand for pices in this camp was so
great that a second two weeks' camp
will be opened on August 26. The
Chamber of Commerce will receive
applications from civilians for this
camp.
These are brief courses of intensive
training, with no commissions granted
at the end, anyplace the person tak
ing them under no obligation for mili
tary service. With the fees and the
expense for transportation, etc., the
two weeks in these camps will cost
approximately $100 to Omaha men.

(Continued From Pace One.)
stand why he did not destroy the
lighthouse with his guns.
On the basis of reports received
concerning the attack on the subma
rine off the Virginia coast, officials
woujd not venture an opinion as to
the possibility that the U-boat was
destroyed. The time of the attack
was not given in the dispatch and
consequently, it was not known
wlfether it was before or after the
gassing of the men on Smith's
Island.
The attack may have occurred Sun
day and been reported by radio, but
the more generally accepted belief
was that it took place several days
ago and since there was no conclu
sive proof of the destruction ef the
enemy, the destroyer waited until re
turning to its base before reporting
to the district naval commander.
When the destroyer sighted the
raider at some distance, it dashed for
ward at full speed. The German evi
dently was maintaining a sharp look
out for the U-boat soon submerged.
The destroyer circled the spot and
dropped IS depth charges.
When the upheaval of the water
caused by the terrific explosions had
subsided, an oil scum was seen. As
this is a ruse long employed by the
Germans when attacked, the de
stroyer dashed in and discharged two
more bombs. The warship then
cruised in the vicinity for some time
but no further trace of the raider wai
seen.
In discussing the submarine raidi
with newspaper correspondents today.
Secretary Daniels said he believed
two U-boats are operating on this
side of the Atlantic. He said he did
not believe rfhey had a base on Amer
ican shores and explained that the)
frequently replenished their storei
and supplies from vessels they de
stroy. Naval patrols on the coast are at
effective as can be, Mr. Daniels de
clared, adding that it is impossible foi
them to be everywhere. Thus far thi
raiders have done no military dam
age, the secretary said and the navj
is carrying out successfully its para
mount duty of safely convoyinj
American troops overseas.

In Body and Mind
Your child is quick to observe disturbances in your mental
attitude or physical condition. And when he asks: "WHSt's
the matter, Daddy?" there's a tone of solemn anxiety in his
little voice. The depression stamped upon you reflects in
