DEFICIT IN SCHOOL FUNDS Puzling Lesson in Aritmetic for the Board of Education, FINANCE ~ COMMITTEE 1S FIGURING With the Redaced Levy the Fands Will Be Tondequate to Mect the Expenses for the Next Yoar— What the Figures Show. Sehool Owing to the fact that the Board of Edu- eation has a puzzie on its hands in contriv ing to make both ends meet during the present year, the finance committee of the board has just completed a eareful survey of the financial condition and will probably make a report atthe next meeting. The members of the committee say that wuile their sources of income are not so fruitful as uld wish, yet they see no cause to be discouraged. parent th da months the board will have little difficulty in meeting expenses, and the revenue that will begin to pour in at the beginning of the year will ease matters ntil May, when some careful work will to be done. The deficit, which is rded as inevitable, will then begin to make itself felt. Thechief items in the es for the school year of teachers’ «al wries, £241,000; officers, $10,680; fu b interest and exc ments, £15,000; m] total expenses as estimated will be &4 The estimated receipts us compared with receipts of last yeur are shown in the following table: the next two ato of expenses are: For nitors, 81,0005 ‘ellancous, $1. 18934, 8 210,000 42,000 Licenses........ ¢ W 0s §i ate appro- printion Police fines Miscoll 60,000 22000 558, $ 80 year it was estimated that revenue from licenses would be $270,000. actually was $257,000, and £10.000 of this ghould huve ) paid the year before. It was estimated that the income from taxes last year on a 8-mill levy would be £68,000, but the levy was 2 mills and the income was #42,000, o falling off of #26,000, which to- gether with other def ies made the total deficit 62,500, which the bourd must face. the It Reduction of School Tax Lev The gradual reduction of the school tax levy from 5 mills in 1800, from which the proceeds were 203,920, to 2 mills in 1593, from which the proceeds were #42,000, is com- mented on as showing a disposition to make the burden of taxation for school purposes as light as possible, but from all present indications the deficit at the end of the pres- ent school year will be$55,527, with no balance on which to fall back, & contingency which the committee contemplates with much concern, as imoney will be needed with which to make improvements during the ensuing summer, The expensos of the board from July 1 1803, to ganuary 1, 1804, will aggrogato §1 000. There can beno relief from licenses until January 1, and none from taxes until July 1, and the deficit will begin to grow exceedingly troublesome by May. After o figures a long time and ds with a cr conmittee has dete mined toimplore economy in all department The superintendent of schools will be asked s every dollar possible without detriment to the efficiency of the schoois and the superintendent of buildings t U in making re- pairs and ¢ making improvements whe they are not absolutely demanded. An attempt will also be made to save in the outlay f i laries by consolida- tion where it is practicable. Besides this, the committee is disposed to make some specific recommendation: It will advise the setting aside of 7,000 instead of $£241,000 for teachers’ 'salaries; a ro- duction of §1,000 in the estimated fuel bill: spending #8500 for text books in- stead of §,000; $3.500 for stationery instend of $4.000: reducing the estimate on repairs and improvements from $42,000 to §30.000; cutting the insurance estimate from $4,000 10 #2,500, and the bill for mi nies from £15,000 to £10.200. This will make a saving of § ';4[)1) and will reduce the estimated deticit to 31,627, This, the members of the committee think, is the best they can do just now, and they hope that with rigid economy all along the line the board can wl out of the hole it is in without an embarrassment thut will s ously cripple the school administration. e e A Cnlid Enjoys The pleasant flavor, gentle action and sooth- Ing effects of Syrup of Fligs, when in need of a laxative, and if the father or mother be costive or bilious, the most gratifying re- sults follow its use; so that it the best family remedy known, and every family should have a bottle on hand SRl Sl 'ON IN 4 POND, muios of an Unknown Been Docaying for Ten Years, CENTRALIA, Ill, Nov. 9.—Last ev while some men were dredging an al doned pond on the Alex McClelland farm, three miles north of the city, they unearthed the skeleton of a man which lay under eighteen inches of sediment in the middle ot the pond. The body had been carefully weighted to the bottom, while the pond yet contained water, and the legs of the dead man had beon staked down with short wooden pins. All the flesh had disappeared and nothing but the skeleton and a bunch of grey hair remained. An old leather pocket- book and portions of garments were found, but were very much decayed. [t is thought that the corpse must huye been deposited there over a decade of years ago. Alex McClelland, the former proprictor of the farm, has been missing over ten years and some are of the opinion thut he was foully dealt with and hidden in the pond. Another version is that tho remains are those ofa man whose nume is forgotten here who came to Centralia about fifteen years ago from the east and mysteriously disappeared. His friends in w York claimed that he had fallen heir to a Jarge estate there and came here in searsh of him, but failed Lo getany trace of his where- abouts.

He says he was kept locked up in a foul cell five days and nights and was then released and told to leave town, According to his story he did nov threaten” Gould or make any demand upon him, He says he intended to ask Gould cither to promoté him in the Western Union service or put him in a posi- tion with some corporation in which he could make enough to - sup- port his family or give him a pointer on the market which would enable him to speculato successfully, Before he had a chance to make known his request ofticers were called in and dragged him off to a police station.

DI\GONAL NOW COMING THIS WAY Stickney Has His Rallrond Eye on Omaha ~The East Omaha Bridge About Rendy for Business—Rates Will Bo Ratsed —Short Kuns, For some time Western, past the Chicago commonly called the system, has been looking toward Omaha and Mr. Stickney at one time had almost completed arrangements to build into this city, using the M ka Ceatral bridge, had it been erected, to effect an entrance here. The troublous times in financial circles com- pletely put a stop to any negotiations look- ing to a reallzation of Mr. Stickuey's desire to tap the western country. For a number of years the Great Western has been doing business here, however, by reason of u traflic agreement with the Wabash system, via_Conception, Mo., a very circuitous route. This traffic arrange- ment, howover, has now been canceled and Mr. Stickney, 1t _is unierstood, has finuily closed deal with the Rock Island, using its tracks from Des Moines to Omalia, giving the Chicago Great Western a much more advantageous entrauce into the Nebraska motropolis. “The exact terms of tho agrcement have not been made public,but it 18 thought it only extends to freight arrangements of a com- won nature, the billing determining which system shall make the huul, east or wi bound, Whether this new arrangement will give Omaha another general agent is not detinitely known, although in freight civcles it is thought the Rock Island will look after the business of the Great Western here, for a time at le ABOUT READY FOR BUSINESS, The East Omaha Bridge Almost Com- pleted and Readystor the Track The largest measure of activity obtains on the East Omaha Bridge and Terminal com- pany, and it anything like the preseut her keeps up Assistant General Man- ager Webster anticipates running a train over the new bridge and 1nto the yards of the company about November 15, The company is building a round house large enough to shelter the two new switcn- engines now at Plattsmouth, and it is thought the structure will be completed within a weck Railsare laid on the bridge spiked fust to the ties, but us not in such position that a cons! could run over them.

Balliff Norberg on Trial for an Alleged Attempt to Fix n Jury. The case in which Bailiff L. P. Norberg is charged with having attempted to corrupt a juror in a recent case against the Omaia Street Railway company was taken up for a half hour in Judge Dufie’s court yesterday morning. The only witness ex- amined was Hans k, the juror whom Norberg is alleged to have approached. Falk's testimony wus an affrmation of the state- ments that he was ,said to have made in the presonce of s lawyers. IPalk saia that Norberg first spoke to him in the rotunda of the court house. He asked him how the jury felt about the case and suid something about #10 or §0. Norberg spoke in Swedish at the time and the wit- ness could not understand all he said. He told him he would have to talk in English and the next day he met him again on Sixteenth street and §Norberg, told him that he would get him £100 if he could arrange to have the jury bring in a verdict for the street railway com or keep the dam- ages down to $100 or 00, Norberg came out to his residence the same night but he was not at howe. The hearing v umed in the afternoon long enough for Norberg to_be put on the stand to explain himself. He admitted that he had approached Falk and had asked him tow the jury stood, but denied that he had offered him money to influence the verdict of the jury. red that ne had never been instructed that it was wrong to speak to the jurors i rd to thew verdict and had no ide t he was doing anything illegal. He had found out since that it was wrong and was sorry for his action. If he was_ permi to retain his position he would ne imitted that he had signed the vit in the office of Fowler & Mc- 4, and that its contents were true. not think there was anything in what he had done, but acceded equest of the attorney that he should sign it because he was afraid that he would not be clected as assessor. On cross-examination Norberg said that on the day on which he had conversation with Falk he met Frank A. Green of the street railway company on the street in front of the court house. Green had asked him if he kuew k, to which he replied in the affirmative. Then Green stated that Falk was 4 juror in the Madsen case, and asked him to se¢ Falk and find out how he felt about the case, Then he went back to the court room and as ho was going for his lunch soon after 120'clock he met Falk. He hap- pened to think of Green's request and asked him how he felt about the Madsen case, to which Falk replied that he did not know, as there were several witnesses 1o be examined vet. He 1 gone out to Falk’'s residence that night, but not to ask him about the ase. He haa goue to get Falk to help him u his political aspirations. What ' ticket were you running on for assessor?? asked Mr. Gurley. The witness said that he was on the republican ticket. “Did you not know that Mr. Falk was o member of the democratic city central com- mittee?” ““Well, yes, 1 did, but I thought that if the other man drew off he might be willing to nelp me out.” In reply toa question Norberg stated that he had an annual s from the street rail- wiay company.

He had gone to the sireet y head- quarters after he was appointed bailiff and asked for the p; ‘I'ney told him to come back in a few d. he did, and *he pass was handed over to him.
