Doourrences at the State Homse— Btonecutters Strike Going On —Pave ing Matters—Residents Want Fourtcenth Street Paved. 1020 P Stieer, LixcouN, May 1 The state hoard of cqualization met to-day at the office of the auditor for the purpose of assessing the railroad and telegraph lines in the state. The board consists of the auditor, treasurer and governor, the first two being fn attendance, Governor Thayer not having returned from Nebraska City. The board will bo in session for several days, and the representatives of the different roads will be in attendance to see to it that the assessment 18 made as low as possible. There were present at the opening of the meoting yester- day S. T. Highleyman, tax commissioner of the Missouri Pacific, who arrived from the south this morning, and C. J. Smith, land commissioner of the Union Pacific, who came in from Omaha on the early train. The as- sessment of a year ago was but slightly raised over the year prior, and the present nssessmont is far below that of Towa. Itis a fact worthy of notice in connection with the nssessments of railroads that Mr, Ripley of the Burlington testified that the roads west of the Missouri river supported the main lines of the Burlington in Illinois and lowa. This testimony given before the Missouri Jegislature might be used to a_great deal of advantage in making uv a_right value upon which to assess Nebraska railroads. The proceedings of the state board of equalization ‘will be watched with much interest. STATE HOUSE NOTES, ‘The bids of the improvement of the capital grounds will be opened on Monday next. The new building at the home for the feeble minded at Beatrice will be finished this month, ‘The improvements at the blind asylum at Nebraska City will be completed by the 10th of the month, the board inspecting them yes- terday. To-day a meeting will be held by the board of public Iands and buildings and the visiting board of the;Grand Island soldier's home for the purpose of formulating rules for the gov- ernment of the home. The live stock sanitary commission held a meeting vesterday and had under discussion the question of a systematical investigation amoug the dairy caitle of the state for tl purpose of determining whether or no tub colosis is abroad in the state. The preval- ence of the disease in different sections of the east, the commission consider_sufficient ouuds for the utmost care in Nebraska. ho commission is also making energetic offorts to entirely eradicate glanders in the state and orders have been issued to the sistant veter mn. case bardled by them that no fraud practiced in the state. A STRIKE AT HAND. Some ninety days ago the stonecutters in the city gave notice to the different yards that beginning May 1 they should ask as wages ¥ per day of nine hours’ work. Yes- terday was the day for the raise, if granted, to take effect, and if not for a strike to be on. At noon yesterday it was hard to determine whether the strike had been ordered or not, but it wus generally understood that the de- ands of the men were not, to bo granted by WIE owners of the different yards. At Key’s and Bullock's yards there was no work going on; there had not, however, been any work for a few days owing, it is stated, to lack of Bstone, but the general opinion was that the strike was on. At Tyler's yard the men were at work up to noon, but it was expected that a strike would be ordered there. There are fifty or seventy-five cutters in the differ- ent yards in the city, and thoy have been getting from § to ) a day, Tt is under- stood that the cutters want no classification in pay under their demands. There is a good deal of work in progress in the and on hand, and it is dificult to determine ‘what effect a strike will have on the progress of of buildings. Lixcory Bureav or Tne Omana Bes, } crs, The remaining paving districts to be paved this scason in the city were let by the city council Monday evening, Stout & Buckstait being awarded the contract for all of them, the council ordering the return of the certifi- cates of deposit to the other bidders with no- tico of their rejection. The contracts of Stout & Buckstafl cover six districts, two of ‘which (the third and eighth) are to be paved with blocks on concrete, the remaining four (the fourth, fifth, sixtli and scventh) to be paved with brick. These districts will reach to the university and_state capitol grounds, and the streets adjoining the state grounds will not be paved until after the state makes its appropriation for paving adjoinmng the Btate property. It is the intention that the brick burned in Lincoln, experts stating that an excellent quality of paving brick can be burned from the clay used in the different brick yards here. Tho yards are arranging to increase their facilities for work at once, and one yard announces that it will burn ali that will be required on time. Colorado sandstone is agreed upon for curbing in all the districts, but a proviso 1s made allowing the use of Bandera stone it the other is not obtainable. INJURING THE STREETS, A movement has been made by a number of parties to reduce streets in places in the city to forty fect in width, lawning out so_as to loave that width for paving. There is a very general opinion that in some parts of the eity this is advisable, but in others it is ly is the latter true on thor- oughfares leading into the city. One of the most important streets in thd city is North Fourteenth; it is a section line and a thor oughfare for a large section of country. It leads to lumber and coal yards in the rail- road yards and is the great highway to the state fair grounds. On thisstrect are a num- ber of handsome residences, aud the ownors of them seem to be a unit in getting the street reduced to fifty feet. The reduction gives them extra lawn room and makes the paving cost them less, but the general public cannot endorse reducing the street for the especial benefit. Franchises for street ways hiave beon granted by the city on that street, and forty feet is too narrow Lo a modate strect cars and the immenso on that strect at certain times in the The smaller property holders desirc street at least fifty foet wide, und are w ing to hold it that way, in which effort citi- zens generally will coineide in their views, MARRIED AND HAPPY. Last evening at the hour of 8 p. W. M. Woodard and Miss Helen M. Flotcher were united in marriage at the home of the \nnh"np.uonu, corner of Nineteenth and 1 m., Mr, cets, Rev. J.

But the philosophers have gone far out of their way to account for the prevalence of ill- assorted couples and unhappy homes, and have over-looked the chief cause. Most of the unhappiness of married life can be traced directly to those func- tional durungummm to which women are subject. In nine cases out of ten the irritable, dissatistied and unhappy wife is a uuflor&'r from some ‘female complaint.” A trial of Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription will produce more domestic happiness than a million ser- mons of philosophical treatise. Itcures all those peculiar weaknesses and ail- ments incident to women.

Wilson, an old timer in criminal acts, stepped into the county jail yesterday ostensibly to visit Jailer Joe Miller, whose hospitable bed and board he has frequently enjoyed. As ho came in Deputy Sherift Grebe identified him as being wanted at Lin- coln for relieving a man of his personal pos- sessions, and locked him up until such time as the authorities at that point could be com- municated with.
