McCabe couldn't give us any advico tho other night as to what we ought to do and neither could Smith. They both said that that was our business to de- cide. e can’t raise the assessment of the motor company without making u correspond ing raise all along the line of real estate.” Real estate 1s now taxed at about 30 per centof i ue, while the motor company pays taxes on about 15 per cent of the value of its plant, mined by the fig which were compiled from tho company’s books and read to the Board of Equalization last week. Some of the aldermen fell back upon the excuse that they do not know whether the fignres, as given at that time, are correct; that the assessor has had a better opportunity of knowing tne exac value of the company’s plant t nd that they are therefore w his assessment. So far the council has not even made an effort to ascertain t the property is worth from any more official sources than the figures given the other night, but have followed an entirely differ- ent course from determining the assessment of this _company from the one they would have adopted in case of any private property owner whose assessment was made the sub- jeet of dispute. The board will hold another meeting next Wednesday night, but the present outlook for its taking any action that will be a ceptable to the public generally is not af brigat, TH Man Made a Great Fight with a Constible. M. Zaltsmann has only one arm, but a ilistic encounter in which he engage ' Tuesday night with Constable Jackson showed that he had come to the conclusion that tho mouth is sometimes mightier than two fists. As a result of the encounter Jack- son is nursing the remnants of a thumb and cursing the day when Zaltsmann was born, It seems the two men had a controversy ime ago over a small amount of money owed Zaltsmann. It was finally agreed between them, after a great deal of bad temper on both sides, that Zalts- mann should call at Jackson’s ofiice Monday and get his money. He did not call during the day, but at night went toJackson's house and reminded Jackson of his promise. The discussion was renewed and the lie was od several times. Jackson at last be- me exasperated and ordered Zaltsmann to leave the premises. Zaltsmann re- fused to do'so, and Jackson, who happened to be sprinkling’ his yard at the time, turned the hose on his visitor. Zalts- mann, setting up a howl that could be heard for a block, siezed a board and made a drive for Jackson. A hand to hand conflict ensued in which Zaltsmann would have probably gotten the worst of it, only having one arm, but he siezed Jackson’s thumb 1 his mouth and commenced a chewing process that would have dismembered an 18-year-old spring chicken, It was then Jackson's turn to howl. With his other hand he toos turns embracing Zaltsmann's neck and pulling his whiskers, and at last mdnaged to make him release his hold, but not until the thumb had been almost severed from the rest of the hand. They called it a drawn battle and separated. There were no arrests, Something for Nothing.

Reed has started for Chicago for the purpose of making purchases of equipments for the new electric motor line that is to run between Council Bluffs and Manawa. Considerable fault has been found every summer with the way in which the Muanawa railway was run, the smoke and cinders rendering the trip a very disagree- able one. Colonel Reed has finally decidedly to spend between $20,000 and £30,000 10 putting iu & complete electric line to connect with the Omaha & Council Bluffs motor liue at Ninth street, asat present, It is probable that before the season is over traius will be run clear through from Omaha to the lake, thus do“}.{, way With the ne- cessity of transfers.
