ayes, the bricklayers and stonemasons are
getting things in shape for the coming sea-
son. said one of the former, land they will
go about the way this weeks international
convention will direct. Tho convention was
sitting last week, ana represented canada as
well as the United States, but | guess it
didn't make many radical changes. Each
subordinate union is entitled to a represcn-
tation OF three delegates in the convention
Several members are required TO form u
local union, ana if the membership exceeds
three hundred an additional delegate is al
lowed for each 500 members in excess Of 800.
If one delegate from a local union only is
present he is entitled to three votes. Two
members are entitled to q vote and q half
each, so that each union having one delegate
present has equal weight in the conference
There is one thing, however, they have de-
termined upon, and that is if Il man is eX-
PEELED for cause, he will have to stay ex-
PEELED. There was one OF that kind named
Matthews-Dlck MattheWs-Who was ex-
PEELED from a New York union for non-pay-
ment of dues. He had lots of friends aud
they made a fight to have him reinstalled by
the convention, but it was found that within
a few days after his expulsion he was
payment of his dues or without them.
He got his spunk up and would not
do it, declaring that he would bust up the
union. Ten thousand dollars would be no
inducement to No. Z to readmit him now.
His name is Dennis, and so will every
other man be christened that bucks the
union this year"
II don't think we will have any trouble
this year in OMAHA he added, ''for both
bosses and men understand what the losses
will be to themselves and each other. There
will be no foolish strikes, but the men will
see that every right they are entitled to, will
be protected"
The new Episcopal church at Nine
teenth and Lake, the Mission of the
Good Shepherd, will be opened Sunday
afternoon, January Goth, at 3 o'clock.
Bishop Worthington will conduct the
services and Dean Gardner will preach
the ermon A selected number of
voices from the choir of Trinity Cathe-
dral will assist in the musical part of
the exercises. A good attendance of
the well-wishers OF the new mission is
earnestly desired.

"MAGGIE THE TRAMP"
A Pecu lar Specimen of the Female
Type Now in Omaha.

A Pecu lar Specimen of the Female
Type Now in Omaha.
"Who are you, and where are you going!"
"I'm Maggie the Tramp and I'm on an
endless pilgrimage"
The above conversation took place between
an officer at the Union Pacific depot and a
slovenly appearing woman about forty-tive
years of age, Friday near the hour of mid
night. The woman arrived at the depot
from Council Bluffs on the 1:l5 dummy. and
carried in her arms a babe of about twelve
months. She entered the ladies' waiting
room at the depot, and took up quarters in
an obscure corner of the room. Thinking
that she was awaiting the arrival OF friends,
the employees at the depot paid but little at
tention to her until the hour for closing the
depot arrived An officer then approached
her, when the above conversation ensued.
AT first the latter thought to call up the pa
troll and send his impromptu guest to the po-
lice station, and undoubtedly would have
done SO had not another of the attaches ar
rived on the scene and at once recognized
her as the female who is known as Maggie
the Tramp between the two oceans, the
British possessions and the Gulf of Mexico.
1t is stated that for the past twelve years
this woman has been travelling from one
point to another on the charity of the public
and when private contributions fail, she i'm
mediately repairs to the county commission
ers, and, it is said, invariably succeeds in OBJ
tanning aid and transportation to another
point, where the same thing is repeated. AS
to her motives for doing this, several theo-
ries are advanced. The opinion is that she
is but half-witted, and therefore travels
about the country in this man
ner. Another theory is that the
woman is travelling under the garb of a
pauper, but is in reality a female detective.
Just what weight can be attached to the lat
ter theory remains to be solved, as there is
no instance wherein the woman is known to
have been connected with the arrest of any
one. She has on two different occasions
made Il tour of the Union Pacific TO the coast,
and is thought to be on u third tour. How
ever, at her earnest solicitation she was al
lowed to pas the night in the depot, and yes
to-day morning she took her babe and
started about the city. and nothing has been
heard of her since.

THE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.


reforms at Their Meeting
in Lincoln Last week.
If the suggestions made at the convention
of county commissioners in Lincoln last
week, are carried out by the legislature, it
will make a marked change in the future
taxation of the state. One of the changes,
and perhaps the most important, Is that sug-
costing that all taxable property be assessed
at its full value. This, it is thought, will
place the finances of the state in n more in
telligible position in eastern money markets.
1t will not effect the amount of taxes paid by
each taxpayer, but it will nominally reduce
the percentage as published. That is,
Omaha at present is paying ~ per cent on a
reduced valuation, whereas, if it was as
sessed at its full value, from 1 to 2 per cent
would be sufficient, and yet the amount OF
taxes received would be the same. This
would put it in a much more favorable light
with eastern capitalists, who are often
deferred by what seems to them an
eXhorbitant taxation, while in
reality, it is no more than they are called
upon to pay IN the east.
Another suggestion made was that the
state board of equalization be enlarged, and
that in addition to the governor, state aud
itor and state treasurer, each district judge
be empowered to name one person to act for
his district. 1t would be left to this board to
equalize the state assessment, as among
counties, and it is intended that when one
| county would tax itself heavily for local i'm
provements it should not be compelled to
pay a state tax in the same proportion. The
board would also have the power of equaliz-
ing in bulk, as between counties, all assessi-
BILE stock, live stock and improvemcnts-as
for example, where the assessors of two ad-
| joining counties put a totally different valua-
ton upon horses-in the one county S25
apiece, and in the other S15-the board would
be empowered to reduce the $50 or increase
the $25 (for state taXation) which at present
they cannot do.
Still another suggestion was that of max
ing the office of assessor either elective, or
appointlve by the district judges, the APP
pointment to be approved by the county
commissioners, and of having only one as
SCISSOR In the county instead of the number
less officials who at present spend a portion
of the year IN drawing salary.
Other alterations and amendments were
talked of, and finally Chairman Anderson
appointed Messrs. Shubert, of Lancaster
county, Todd, of Cass county, and O'Keeffe,
of Douglas, a committee TO draft the neces-
sary bill, and present it to the legislature for
consideration. They will meet in Lincoln at
10 a. m. Tuesday morning, and in the mean
time General Gown will outline a measure
covering the above, and other points.

The Request of the School Board For

The finance committee OF the city council
met last night at the council chamber to con-
slider the tax levy of 1889. They were visited
by a delegation of the board of education,
consisting of President Clark and Messrs.
Goodman, Willard, Sholes and Secretary
Piper. This committee desired the council
to give the board of education a school levy
of ! mill for the sinking fund and 5 mills for
the general fund. This was based on an esti-
mate on the needs of the school board
and above the income from all licenses and
fines from the police court. The council
committee did not take any action in the
premises, but the prevailing disposition was
to cut the school levy down to a minimum,
as the levy for city PURPOSES is already very
high. and in the opinion of the council COM
mittee the school board can get along with
the income already at its disposal.
