Senator Lodge. in his speech at

the I5Oth anniversary OF the formation

opinion that irresponsible wealth is
the great peril OF the American ma

American people and of the United

Stockholders win Meet in Omaha to
Make Plans for Future
Action.

The stockholders of the Nebraska Ma
sonic Home association will meet at Free
Mason's hall in Omaha, tune %, for the
purpose of taking action looking to the
creation and maintenance OF a Masonic
home. There 10 something indefinite as to
the number OF stockholders. as many who
subscribed rave failed to make payment,
and It will be for the stockholders to de-
termine the standing OF those subscribers.
The board Of directors, which consists of
twelve. desires to receive Instructions from
the stockholders as to the policy to be
pursued in the immediate future. The as
ISOLATION was formed ten years ago and at
that time It was decided TO locate the
home at Omaha, with an initial investment
OF $4,000. This plan has been abandoned
and It Is now proposed to start the home
on a more moderate plan and to locate Il
in some smaller town. .Plattsmouth has
been suggested as a probable location, but
this will not be settled until the meeting OF
the stockholders 1t Is probable that a
house already constructed will be pur-
chased at first and the construction OF a
home deferred until after the plan has
demonstrated its wisdom.

WOMAN HELD FOR BURGLARY
Detectives Arrest Katie Mune with
stolen household Furnish
inRs IN Her Possession.

Friday afternoon the police recovered
household furnishings which had been
stolen within the last i've weeks from three
different houses and In Katie Mune think
they have the person who stole them, De
tective Mitchell arrested her in a Twelfth
street secondhand store with the stolen
goods in her possession. She was taken to
the station and placed in charge of the
matron and a little later mysteriously dis
appeared, to be found at her home, 1916
Cunning street, later In the day by De-
tective Drummy.
Several weeks ago Katie Mune was ar
rested While she had several chenille cur
tains and a small table In her possession.
These had been stolen, but she was let out.
as she stated the goods had been given to
her. This second arrest probably will not
go so easily with her, as the goods she had
this time were worth $500 at the least.
The most valuable articles found were a
pair of portieres which were worth fully
$50 and were taken with some other house,
hold goods from the home of d. w. Phelps,
2112 Douglas street. Other things taken
from the home Of Alex Gunther at $3.50
Farnam street, May IL, were found among

WATER COMPANY ASSESSMENT
Assessor for Florence Precinct Evil
IDENTITY OvcrIOOks the Biz
Pumping station.

There was no meeting OF the county COM
missloners yesterday, all business going
over to the statutory meeting to be held
Monday morning. Complaints before the
Board of Equalization are arriving slowly.
The smelling company has made a protest
against the increase In Its assessment and
the managers OF the New York Life build
ing believe that property Is assessed too
high. An inspection of the assessors re-
turns show that Florence precinct is about
$4,000 short OF its assessment of a year Ego.
Last year the assessor returned the per-
sonal property of the Omaha Water com
pany in that precinct at a valuation of
something more than 10000. this figure in
Guiding the engines at the pumping station.
This year the property of the p in
the precinct is returned at $215, and none OF
the property Of the company used at the
pumping station is included.
The unofficial ~footings of the assessors
show that the richest country precinct in
the county is Chicago, which has a real es-
tate value for the purpose of taxation of
24s,2S6 and a personal property valuation
Of $gs,41. Douglas precinct shows the high
est value of personal property, the figures
being $45, $50. -,. . -s,

LUMBER DEALERS SHUT DOWN
Refn"e to Sell Material Because
Union Carpenters Are Ready
TO work.

Not a foot of lumber could be bought in
Omaha yesterday-at least not at a lumber
yard. All. customers have been refused and
the only explanation given is that lumber
cannot be sold on account of the carpen-
ters' strike. The carpenters strike, OF
course, has been in progress for many
weeks. The papers Friday and Saturday
contained advertisements from union car
penters stating that they could supply all
who desired with carpenters, foremen and
all men necessary to carry on building OF
any kind. The action Of the lumber yard
men, coming closely on the heels of this
advertisement, is interpreted as bearing
some relation to the independent course
adopted by the carpenters.
One lumber dealer, when asked If lumber
could be bought Monday, said: "well, I
cannot tell now what will be the decision.
We. are not selling because Of the carpen-
ters' strike"

Ing eagerly on his decision and the city at
large is deeply interested because there Il
