THE TAX LEVY.
Council Makes Total Amount
Same as Last Year.
Resolutions Voting Thanks TO State
Board of Equalization and Attorney
Daley Are Passed.

The session of the common council
Friday was not very extended one
and outside of the tax levy and reso-
buttons of thanks to the state board of
equalization and Attorney Daley, lit
tie of more than local Importance was
transacted. The tax levy went
through as the committee had agreed
upon with one exception. When Mayor
Currier arrived just before the session
opened, he had little conference
with the committee and it was decided
on his recommendation to increase
the levy for the bills payable fund to
$4,000 and this was done, making the
total levy $40, 900, the same as last
year.
The council declined to increase the
library fund $500 as was asked for
by President Wood, of the board, al
though the mayor recommended that
$500 be taken from the bills payable
fund. The proposition seemed to have
only one friend on the council, Aid
Weed. 1t looks as though in this
refusal the council made a serious mis-
take, one-that ought to be rectifed at
the next meeting, if not too late.
The state board of equalization
and City Attorney DALEY were given
a vote of thanks on behalf of the coun-
Gil and citizens for their work in be-
half of the assessment reductions on
city realty. The proposition to buy
the Burmister property, as recon-
mended by the committee on parks, at
the last meeting, so as to extend Sibley
park from the mound to the Mime
sofa river, was laid over until spring
to be submitted to vote of the people
as to whether it should be purchased
and bonds issued therefor.
The special committee to confer
with the Omaha and G. & n. W. rail
way officials reported that the roads
would put in gates at Rock and Elm
streets crossings and gong at the
Third avenue crossing. The remainder
of the business was largely of a routine
nature.

Petitions and Communications.

Petitions and Communications.
A communication was received from
VIM. H. Shepard, of Green Bay, for
mer city treasurer, in which he said
he supposed the amount for which he
is back in the city was paid, and that
he would look after it at once.
The letter was discussed at some lit
tie extent. There was a reference in
it to the effect that the writer had
supposed Gen. Pope had assumed it,
and the mayor said he recalled a
letter from Gen. Pope to the effect
that if all was right he would see it
was paid. Recorder Williams said he
also recalled such letter, and thought
possibly he had it on file. Also that
Gen. Pope and himself looked the
matter up, and Mr.. Pope was satisfied
the account was just and said it should
be paid, but nothing more was ever
done about it.
A petition signed by T. H. Foley and
two other property owners was re-
ceived asking for a crosswalk across
Pearl street at intersection of Hanover
Referred to the street committee.
Also one signed by Richard Hughes
and three others asking city to vacate
Hickory street from Sixth up to Wal
nut and from Sixth street to Beach
street. Referred to the street COM
mittee.
Another petition was received ask
ing for a culvert across Warren creek
on the line of the alley in block Z and
to cause to be graded and opened the
alley running through said block Z.
Referred to the street committee.
A petition asking for an arc light
al the corner of Sixth and Hickory
streets was read and referred to COM
mittee on lighting.
F. A. Halstead presented commun-
ication stating that he would extend
water mains on Baker avenue from
West 8th to West 9th streets for 40
cents per foot
Aid. Taylor said mistake had been
made in the petition and the mains
did not go as far as was intended and
he moved, as the price was all right,
that the proposition be accepted.
Adopted
Aid. Weed reported from sinking
fund commission that two notes of
$500 each had been paid
Aid. Jordan moved that gu tier be
laid on east side of Sixth and Locust

DIR. Wood, of the library board, was
present and asked that the library
fund be increased $500 SO that the pub
lie library could be put in better
shape. AS it is now the library is un-
able to buy any new books and there
are many in the back room, with
drawn from circulation because they
should be rebound.
Aid Deebach said that the commit
tee had considered the matter care
fully and he thought the library had
been literally treated.
The mayor suggested that $500 be

Aid. Jordan thought the library was
treated all right, money could be saved
if public library would move into city
hall as room by council had been offer
ed.
DR.. Wood gave his reasons why the
offer could not be accepted. Aside
from the crowded quarters it would
give, it is not just the place for it.
There were always more or less loung-
ers around the police headquarters and
those patronizing the library must
pass through these. The great portion
of those patronizing the library were
women and children, and it was not
pleasant for them to be subjected to
such guantlet, in fact he did not
believe it was right that they should
be. In reply to remark that the
council did not know what the library
was doing, the doctor sarcasticly re-
marked that he did not think its mem
bers had troubled themselves to find
out. He said detailed report had
been made and submitted to the coun-
Gil but he did not believe, from the re-
mark. that it had been looked over,
and the council had refused to publish
it so any one else could.
The report of the committee as to
tax levy was accepted and Aid. Jor-
dan moved that the tax levy be made
in accordance with said report.
Aid. Weed moved to amend so as to
transfer $500 from the amount for
bills payable to library fund. This
failed of second, and Aid. Jordan S
motion was adopted.

fire broadside after broadside into

is kept up from the deck guns and

The Hanging Of Pictures,

Perhaps nothing so indicates the cul
ture and refinement of a home as the
collection of pictures that furnish the
dwelling. The hanging and arrange
ment OF pictures are among those i'm
portant little details which mean sc
much in the general effect of a room
and yet, in too many instances, they arc
treated in n most haphazard fashion
and either hung high, close to the
frieze, or so low that they almost form
the dado says The Wisconsin.
1t is impossible to give strict direc.
tons as to their arrangement, as so
much depends upon the room, it's size
and position.
They should, however, always be
hung ut medium height on a line with
the eye, not too close together and per.
fectly straight.
Then. again, oil paintings should not
be placed next to cngravings nor vet
waterNolors, as the effect of the one Is
destroyed by the other. When hung
close together, not only do the colors
clash. hrt the different designs of two
frames produce discordant iinprcs.
sion. 1t is hardly necessary to say
that picture never shows TO nlyan.
tage when placed directly opposite TO
window, is the light falls upon ii fiat
and hard.
Small pictures and prints should be
FASTENED to the wall, not hung by q
cord or wire or allowed to tilt forward
at an angle. The latter arrangement
throws the frames out of the line Of
the wall.
