perhaps raising more money for the varI-
Gus funds than was placed in the tax
estimate made in January, and on which
the levy should be based. The comptroI-
Ter did not take kindly to the point made
by the county auditor, but as it was a
question of knuckling down or having no
levy made the comptroller followed the
advice of the corporation attorney. and
prepared a new resolution giving the
amounts rather than the rate per cent
which would raise the amounts
When asked as to when the rate of tax

said last evening that he could no moth

passed by the council and transmitted TO
him officially. The figures the comptroller
had sent to the council in the first resolu-
ton, the auditor said were not correct.
and the rate per cent would without doubt
be changed materially.
Comptroller McCardy refused to discuss
the matter yesterday. or make any state
ment except that the amended resolution
simply gave the specific amounts for each
of the funds, as well as the rate per cent
which would be levied to raise these
amounts.

HONORED Mrs. GREGORY.

Editor of ''Kings and Queens" Made
a Life Member.
One life member Is borne on the rolls
Of the National Live Stock exchange
now.
The active membership Of the exchange
Is limited to men, but it's life membership
thus far is composed entirely of women,
the one honored In election yesterday
being Mrs. Lille P. Gregory, or Mrs. John
f. Gregory, as her name Is given at the
top Of the editorial page Of "The Kings
and Queens of the Range a monthly
magazine devoted to the interests Of tho
stockmen and their families.
Mrs. Gregory Is the widow of a former
prominent and popular stockman, who
was one of the foremost members Of the
exchange. He left his wife q considera-
BILE estate, but somewhat involved, and
she has taken the business world "by the
HORNS" In the language Of the stockmen,
striking out for herself in the publication
of handsome magazine.
Horace A.. Wood, of the st. Joseph

elected an honorary member.
President Thompson suggested that She
be made life member, and the change
was assented to. The election was
unanimous.

BOWS TO The AUDITOR

AGAINST 1T
JOHNSON HAS HIS OWN WAY
Tells the Council He Would Not
Spread the Levy in the Manner
Outlined and Heretofore Followed
The Comptroller. Without
Murmur, Prepares the Levy to
Suit the Auditor.

City Comptroller McCardy now prob
ably regrets that he alluded to County
Auditor Johnson as a lightweight" or
made use of the expression that Johnson
held 'nine-spot office" for that official
has proven that he is heavy enough to
froce the council and the comptroller to
bow to his orders In the matter of pass
ing a tax levy resolution. For years past
it has been the duty or practice of the
comptroller to send to the council in Oc-
tober of each year resolution fixing the
tax levy for the year. Under the charter
the levy is based on the figures of the
tax estimate, which is approved by the
conference committee and the council in
January of each year. This tax levy
resolution, as prepared by the comp
treller has fixed the tax levy rate per
cent for each of the assessment districts
in the city, and usually fixes the rate
per cent for the county state and city.
The one prepared by Comptroller Nc
Cardy for this year and passed by the
council Oct. was similar to ones of pre-
vious years. When it was transmitted to
the county auditor that official notified
the corporation attorney that he would
not spread the levy unless the resolution
came to him in proper form.
The position taken by the auditor was
that the resolution should, according RI
tho general law, state the specific
amounts to be levied, and not the rate
per cent. For instance. the auditor ex-
planned, the comptroller had fixed the
rate per cent 10 be levied when he was
not sure what liberalization would be for
the city. This would have the effect of

. There is one point of similarity between
the live stock men and the chiropodist-
both are interested in corns. But the
cattle man does not insist on inspection

The convention is a well-fed aggraga-

tarianism. 1t practices what 1t breaches.
While the cattle men believe in corns
especial adaptabllity to their uses, some
of them recognize that rye, as well as
sour mash, has elements to commend it.

REFORM AT RED WING.
Parole Plan Working Well at State
Training School.

Secretary Jackson of the state board of
corrections and charities returned yester-
day from Red Wing, where he visited the
Minnesota training school for boys and
girls. The school is now operating I'M
der a system of grades which paroles I'M
der certain conditions, and homes are
found for all that are released As the
discharges are made they are not sent
to their homes, as in very many cases
the boys and girls find their way to the
institution because they do not have the
right kind of homes. None are released
unless the parole is earned and suffi-
GENTLY worthy of confidence to be placed
in a good home without any of the re-
strictions of the school The population
of the training school, despite the steady
growth of the state. has decreased about
10 per cent in a very few years This is
accounted for by the parole system
1.-THE Red Wing people think the cam
paign in the Philippines was immensely
beneficial to the members of Company
c." says Mr.. Jackson. Several of the
training school boys enlisted to go to
the Philippines with the Thirteenth regi-
ment Upon the arrival of the home
company the enthusiasm of the $50 boys
and girls was manifested In very
noisy demonstration. In the dining room,
where no one Is supposed to speak. the
boys cheered themselves hoarse
"Fifty-six girls are included in the pop
uIation Of the school: 1t is very proba-
BILE that the Red Wing training school
will be for some time to come the only
public institution in the state where girls
can be sent for reformation Before a
special training school for girls is es-
tablished it will be almost necessary to
secure a constitutional amendment, as 1t
is impossible to impose more than a
ninety days sentence, and to be at all
effective the state should be able to keep
them long enough to accomplish their
reformation" .

Guinea Pigs and Rats.

The hundreds of people who see queer little animals called guinea pigs in the show windows of bird stores know that they are of any use except for pets. It is said that rats will not stay in the same building with guinea pigs and for that reason they are in great demand by chicken raisers. who usually suffer by having peeps carried off by rodents. Besides this the animals cost absolutely nothing to keep, as they will eat anything and everything and seem to thrive on nothing but grass. They are very prolific. One pair will rear dozen young every year.
