BOARD RAISES SEVERAL OMAHA FIRMS tallers—No Sesslon Today. N The County Board of Equalization has @eferred until Monday morning any action on the assessment of the Omala DBridge and Terminal company and the Belt Line vallway. At yesterday afterncon's seesiou 4t was developed that the former bas been assessed at 364,000 on its personal and real #nd the latter at $165,000. These were facts of which the members of the tax committee of the Real Estate exchange had not a clear upderstanding, Ul ! The forencon session did not develop much that the board considered heipful, but in the afterncon John R. Webster, who Tepresented the Terminal company aud who was cxtensively quiszed, also concernivg the Belt rallway, gave what & member of the committee sald he considered a very falr statement. John R. Webster's Statemont. He sald, among other things, that the sctual value of the company's property this olde ‘the middle of the Terminal bridge is $350,000; that it has out $1,000,000 of bonds on which interest had defaulted eight years, But on Which the company s mow paying interest by borrowing, as the nings are not suficlent to pay Both this interest and the running expenses. He was understood €0 say, also, that the bonds are worth about 15 per cent, or $750,000, of which a trifle Jess than one-half is property ass ble in Nebraska, as a trifie less than one-half the company's holdings are in this state. Attorney Orr of the Missouri Pacific ap- peared with Tax Agent Helgleman for the Belt line, but gave little evidence after Mr. Webster had spoken in the afterncen, and pone, a member of the board said, that would Influence the decision materially.

AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAH Garbage Route to the River is Olesed by Mr. Kountze, HOGELAND AGITATES CURFEW ONCE MORE Gri ing Operations Suspended Account of Recent Rains—Three Milk Dealers on C Magie City Go The only road the city has to the river was closed yesterday and Mayor Koutsky 1s greatly worried about the dispesal of garbage. In June of 1901, when this ques- tlon came up, Herman Kountze of Omaba sent a written communication to the coun- ell offering to dedicate a road to the river through his property providing certain con- ditions were complied with. In the first place, Mr. Kountze wanted the eity to tence both sides of the road, and this was done. A five-wire fence w: cted, with gates at convenlent points, end then a bridge was built across th: creck at what might be called the foot of M street. In all the city must have spent not less than $1,000 in complylng with the request. All that Mr. Kountze asked in return for opening this road through his property to the river was that the city pay him $100. A warrant was ordered drawn and twice Ad- | kius, who was then president of the coun- ell, carried the warrant to Omaba and ten- dered it to Mr. Kountze, but it never accepted and It now reposes in the war- rant packet of the eity eclerk. Mayor Koutsky sald last night that driv- ers of garbage wagons were refused ac- cees to the river yesterday by an agent of Mr. Koun ‘What will be with the | garbage until the matter is tied 1s hard | to tell, as the orders are to dump all gar- bage fato the river. The same order per- talns to dead animals. The mayor in company with a number of city officlals will go te Omaha Baturday to meet Mr. Kountse and endeavor to effect a settiement of some kind. An investigatio e by the mayor and others yesterday aftérnoon showed that the Kountsze route to the river ie the only practical ofe. It 18 thought that inasmuch @ the city has spent so much money on fixiog the road, building a bridge and con- | structing & fence 4 was requested in the | proposition, Mr. Kountze, when he learns of the state of affairs, will enter fnto an agreement which will hold. In case such arrangements cannot be perfected It will be necéssary for the city officlals to deviss ways and means for opening & street direct to the river in order that garbage may be disposed of at as little expense to the tax- Payers as possible. Colonel Hogeland Visits Koutsky. Yesterday atteincon Colomel Alexander Hogeland, the newsboys' friend, called on Mayor Koutsky and had a talk in comnec- tlon with the curfew law. It appea: that | some years ago the councll psssed & cur- few o:dinance, but It was mever enforced | 1o any extent and Is now considered a dead | Jetter. What Colonel Hogeland wants is & Bew ordisante more In accordance with modern methods of dealing with children. He asserted to the mayor that he 4id not @ceire that youngsters be incarcerated for being on the streets after 9 o'clock at night. What he wants W& that police officers take boys Who are found running the streets 1o their homes And turn them over to their parents. Mayor Koutsky appears to be Beartlly in favor of the plan. On Sundsy wmorning next Colomel Hoge- land will deliver an address at the First Metncdist Epiacopal church and on Mobday évening be will appear betore the city coun- el with & request that the curfew ordl- 5 greatest opportunity ever oftered to buy a | beautiful hat at a mere fraction of its cost.

This will be the signal for youngsters to get home. Grading Operations Suspended. On account of the recent heavy rains the grading outfits operating in and about South Omaha bave suspended operations until the ground dries out. A number of outfits were brought to the city yesterday and the men went into camp to walt for more sessonable weather. The wet epell will cause a delay in the grading of streets in the eastern portion of the city, for which ordinances have been passed. The county work in this vicinity is belng delayed also. It is reported that on West Q street and near Sarpy Mills water nde on the ground to the depth of over a foot. Con- tractors say that with a few dry days the ground will dry out suffclently so that work can be resumed. The sireet force is badly handicapped at present, but as soon as thers is a letup of rain the holes in the unpaved streets will be filled. Jones Tests Milk. In June Sanitary Inspector Jones made tests of milk from twenty-two dealers. Several samples were taken from wagons on the streets on various occasions and tested. Of the dairymen selling milk in | the city and the milk depots dlsposiug of the lacteal product only three were found to be below the standard. The inspector served notice on the three dealers that the standard of milk sold by them would have to be improved of else their licenses would be revoket. Preparing to Gra The Jetter Brewing company has let & contract amd is now prepared to com- mence grading on Baturday for brick sta- bles to take the place of the barns burned on the night of May 30. City Engineer Beal has set the stakes for the graders d the work of construction will commence | soon as the graders finish exca- | The barn will be of brick with steel s and it s expected that it will be ready for occupancy in & ¢ouple of months.

GOES INTO A TRANCE FOR SIX HOURS Son Bellieves Her to Be Dead and Comes to Omaba, Where He Makes All Arrangements for Funeral. The family of Jacob Wagner, at 1011 Grace street, and the family of Joseph Wagner, at Eleventh and Nicholas streets, made a rangements to bury at 2 o'clock last Tuesday afternoon the body of Mrs. Mary Bow: but Mrs. Bowers s not dead yet. She wa: in a trance six hours, and It was this that caused the premature «ppearance of the crepe. She is 89 years old and was recently taken very 11l at her home {n Percival, Ia. Sun- day, at about the noon hour, she called her youngest son, Frank, to her bedside and bade him a last goodby. .fhortly after- d her eyes closed and she seemed to have gone to ber eternal rest. Her husband is buried in an Omaha ceme- tery and the Mesdames Wagner are her daughters. Her son considered that It were best that she be brought here for in- terment. Accordingly, he left Percival on the next train to notify his sisters and make full arrangements. Nelghbors promised to send the body after it should be embalmed. | Like Hop-Skip-and-Jamp. Fred Wagner, one of the younger genera- tion, is in county jall on a charge of break. ing and entering. When the funeral plans were made it was desired that the boy should see bis departed relative before the clods should cover her and Judge Estelle of the district court signed an order direct- ing that & deputy sheriff take him to the family home Tuesday foremoon. Deputies Roach and Sherry went, with the prisoner handeuffed to Sherry, The latter fs brief of leg and their traveling across the pool- specked bottoms was mistaken by boys of the neighborhood for & hop-skip-and-jump contest and they joined in with enthusiasm which didn’t seem at all the thing for & march that was in the nature of a funeral without her. The boy was taken back Lo Omaha and arrange her funeral Mrs. Bow- excitement of the oceasion the message they sent to Omahs was incorrectly addressed. It never reached the Wagners, and while the watchers at Percival were woadering why the son didu't return, the watchers la Omaba were wondering how long it takes &0 embalmer to complete his melancholy task.
