BEARD WILL CHALLENGE BUDD
Nebraska wizard at the Traps Wants
to Carry the Hazard
TrOpF ..

Frank Beard, the Herman wizard at the
live bird traps, who was in Omaha yester-
day, made the announcement that he In
tends to carry the Hazard trophy, success
fully defended by G.. w. Budd Of Des
Moines last week. after September.
He said that in a short time he would
issue a formal challenge to Mr.. Budd to
again defend the trophy and that he would
insist upon having the contest AXE place
on the Omaha Gun club grounds. This will
certainly be satisfactory to Mr.. Budd, &C.
cording to the opinion OF local shooters,
for the Iowa man has never had better luck
than upon these grounds and has hereto
fore brought every challenger to this city.
Local trap shooters will look forward
with interest to this contest, as the men
are much more evenly matched so far as
record is concerned than were Phillls and
Budd. For fifteen years or more they
have been shooting over the same circuit
and an inspection Of the records will show
that there is little difference between the
averages OF the men. both being we'll above
the IS per cent mark for live birds. In
matches where they have been pitted
against one another honors are about easy,
with a shade in favor Of Mr.. Beard II any

Coming from st. Paul to
Omaha.

Rev. T. V. Moore, who came in from st.
Paul Friday reports that in the way
down the passengers in the train had the
unusual opportunity of watching the prog
ress OF a tornado. Between Prairie juno
ton and Brewster the track runs north
and south, while the course laid by the
twister was a little south Of east, so that
It was approaching the track at the time
the passengers were watching it. When
about a mile from the track it seemed
to encounter a soft, sandy formation and
almost at once split into two funnel
shaped clouds, and then was d~issipated in
a burst OF yellowish black dust. The train
escaped without harm, although had the
tornado held on its course 1t must almost
surely have overwhelmed the train.

TO SURVEY The RAILROADS

Resolution Instructs County Surveyor
90 Get Exact Information on All
Railroad Property in
the County.

With the city council Of Omaha manda-
unused to reconvene as a board Of equaliza-
tion through the effort OF members Of the
Real Estate exchange, and with the State
Board of Equalization similarly commanded
by the supreme court, after exposures made
by E. Rosewater, the Board Of Douglas
County Commissioners sees good reason for
dealing with the problem Of assessment
with unusual caution this year. They say
that they feel there will be need of full in
formation when the hearing begins June 10,
and for that reason are collecting in ad-
vance such statistics as they may need.
They have been digging among the county
surveyors records for information concern
ing the holdings in this county Of the vari-
Gus railroads, but found such records so
incomplete that Chairman Ostrom Of the
committee Of the whole introduced at yes
terday's meeting of the board a resolu-
tion which calls for a resurvey Of such
holdings. Chairman Hofeldt was not in at
tendance, but the other four members Of
the board all voted aye.
want Exact Mileage.
The preamble states that the record Of
the railroads and their sidetracks is so in
complete as to make it impossible to ascer-
tain the exact mileage of the various roads
and the resolution directs the county sur
veyor to survey the railroads, sidetracks
and the companies lands in the county,
and to make a complete record of the same.
The other business of the board was
largely routine. The end Of the Irvington
prohibition war was signalized by the
board instructing that the check Of the
Schlitz Brewing company be returned. The
check had been sent as payment for a IL
cense which had been asked by the COM
pany's representative that he might OPP
crate a saloon in the burg. The temper
ance element, headed by the original owner
OF the land, protested and won in the fight.
Help Out Cass County.
The commissioned decided to help Cass
county out of a peculiar predicament. One
of the commissioners wrote from Platts-
mouth that Mrs. Vogt, destitute, is a charge
on that county and is suffering with in
tiammatory rheumatism of a most painful
kind. He stated that that county has no
hospital and that it would pay 500 per
month for the maintenance Of the sufferer
in the Douglas county establishment. The
commissioner here voted to accept the
proposition.
Thomas O'Connor, county storekeeper,
was voted $45 to defray expenses he will
incur in attending the National Conference
of Charities and Correction in Detroit May

Mayor Koutsky has been asked to take
steps toward the calling of a mass meeting
for the purpose of discussing the, PROPOSE
ton to renew the franchise of the Omaha
Water company, which expires in two
years, and also to bring up the question Of
lower hydrant rentals. At the present time
the city is paying $50 a year each for 200
hydrants and certain taxpayers who are be-
hind the present movement think that In
case the city agrees to make some conces-
sions the water company will reduce the
rental to $50 a year. This will be quite a
saving and the amount saved can be used,
so it is stated. in placing additional n.y.
drants. The mayor has not designated a
date yet for the meeting, but will most
likely do so before long. AS has been
mentioned before, the water company fran
chise has two years to run yet, but there
seems to be a desire to have It renewed at
this time. notwithstanding the opposition
Of "a prominent member Of the council"
The law does not, 1t is asserted, allow
enough money to be levied for water pur-
poses, and as there Is a constant demand
for hydrants, 1t is expected that the coun-
Gil, when 1t comes to making the levy this
year, will go the limit and then make some
provision on the side for the payment OF

service.
