A Joke ON a Professor.

Among some intensely amusing col
lege scrapes told by "A Graduate" in
The Ladies' Home Journal Is the story
of certain professor not much liked
by his pupils who was to be married.
The lady lived in Cleveland. And the
students that loved O. him were not
OF course invited. But they determin.
cd that In some way he should hear
from them And he did. On the day
appointed the professor took the train
at 10 n. m, due to arrive at Cleveland
at 1890 D. III. About IL o'clock Jim
Townsend rushed to the telegraph of
tce and sent off this dispatch:
Chief of Police, Cleveland: Man
coming on train No. G, tall. well dress
ed. frocll coat, silk hat, side whiskers.
Escaped lunatic. Hold. Shrewd, there
fore beware. Strange case. VIII say
name Finalli. Mistake. Thinks he ~
professor In college Delusion. Es-
cort to home OF friends at No. - Euc-
lid avenue"
This message reached its destination
long before train No. g reached Cleve-
land, so that when Professor Finalll
alIghted 1t was TO walk straight into
the custody of three detectives. They
would listen TO no words OF reason, but
escorted him out to the house on Euclid
avenue, the home Of his intended bride.

How to Learn to Like Pictures.


The following suggestions. IL you
please. are not from an artist nor eveE
from a connoisseur. the writer being
nothing more than an ordinary picture
lover. In general the principle to be
followed Is to get as much In an atmos-
phere Of pictures as possible. Always
go to the museums when you are trav-
cling. and IL you live near enough
make occasional picture visits to Bos-
ton, Chicago or New York. Do not
make the mistake of staying too long
in gallery. You only tire yourself.
Half an hour IL quite long enough. But
do not endeavor to look at every pie
ture In the gallery In that time. Look
long at a few good ones and let those
you look at be those you like or at least
those which you prefer above the 9th
ers. Also ask yourself why you prefer
them. Always get catalogue. Some
times the pictures are not marked. and
you as student want always 90 know

THAT TAXATION WRANGLE
Thomas Fitzpatrick Looks at the Cues
tion from Both stand
points.

OMAHA. Feb. TO the Editor OF The
Bee: Dear Sir-I notice in the daily papers
great deal of pickering and faultHnding on
the part Of our citizens, on the one hand
and on the part OF the council, on the other,
In reference TO the proposed levy OF "a mills.
The council maintains that such high levy
Is necessary. otherwise they would not pro-
pose 1t, and the citizens declare, almost
with one voice, that Il is too high. but they
offer no particulars, and probably not one
in a hundred can tell where the extrava-
gance Is or where economy Is possible. Such
a controversy serves no good purpose and
does not lessen our taxes.
sincerely think that committee Of three
or perhaps Ave of our responsible citizens
should be appointed by the citizens to look
carefully over the expenses in each depart
ment OF the city government during the last
two or three years. SO that they may be
able to point out where the extravaganza, II
any. is located. and. providing there is a
necessity for retrenchment, l am confident
that the report OF such a committee would
be satisfactory both to the council and tc
the people and would save our citizens O
considerable amount in taxes.
Many schemes are offered constantly fol
the betterment and growth OF our city. but
am satisfied that none OF them are of any
avail, except such as go on the theory Of
personal and public economy. Between
county and city taxes and the many schemes
to which we are asked to contribute oul
citizens are nearly taxed out Of existence.
The council and the city officials would M
doubt cheerfully grant such a committe,
full access to all books and papers bear.n,
on the subject. THOMAS FITZPATRICK.

After an absence OF two years, during
which time he has been appearing In
vaudeville. Robert Downing returned to
Omaha as q star in the Legitimate
Thursday night. opening an engagement
which will continue during the balance OF
the week at Boyds theater. His offering
was an abridged revision OF "Ingomar,"
with which local patrons Of the drama
are more or less familiar, and a one-act
curtain raiser. Paris in 1893" The latter
Is a rather amusing little comedy and gives
Mr.. Downing an opportunity to display his
versatility
Omaha theater-goers have heretofore
known him as a tragedian only aud when
as Mons. Sangfroid in the curtain raiser
he threw his audience into convulsions OF
laughter with his clever comedy methods
there was no little surprise manifest by
! those who had heretofore thought him cap
able OF sustaining tragic roles only The
main thing which seems to stand in the
way OF Mr.. Downlngs great success as
comedian Is his obesity. Unfortunately
he tips the scales at a trife more than 200
pounds and is therefore hardly as light
on his feet as one might expect success
| full comedian to be. However, It Is unfair
| to pass judgment upon this score and
| further criticism OF his new line OF work
| will be withheld until after to nights per
formance of his new coined drama. "The
Seventh Commandment"

tion OF 1t in last nights cast. is rather or
