The mayor has arranged the details OF
the annual appropriation ordinance. BY its
terms the funds will be about as follows:

In order 10 raise TINS amount OF money
a levy of about s mills will be required. In
the above estimate OF expenses the limit
prescribed by the city charter is levied in
all funds except the judgment and interest
funds. The interest fund viii require a
levy Of about 3 mills out of a possible levy
OF 81 mills. The Judgment levy is annu-
ally enough to pay outstanding judgments
and no more.
The mayor stated yesterday that he pro-
posed to attempt no compromise in the
matter OF the furniture contracts. He said,
They are already in the courts and | pro-
pose that the courts shall decide what the
duty of the city is In the matter. The same
policy will be pursued in the vault fix
turss and lighting fixtures matter. l
think fully 30 per cent of the furniture we
have received could easily be returned. |
would be willing to do that and settle for
the rest"
For this reason the annual appropriation
ordinance will make no mention of the
furniture. This will be a dash to the hopes
of the Interested companies. They will
have to bring a suit on another score In
order to recover through the judgment
fund II possible the money they were to
receive for the city furniture.
Surgical Instruments stolen.
Some clever purloiner has been making
the rounds of the doctors offices of both
cities stealing valuable surgical instru-
ments. The office OF DR.. r. II. Ensor was
entered within the last day or two and
over $50 worth OF instruments taken. The
doctor has not the slightest clue either to
the man or to the time he paid his pro-
fessional call. The police are working on
the case.
DR.. r. f. Schindel was unlucky enough to
purchase a set Of surgical instruments from
a stranger who said he had found them
on a train in Wyoming. The doctor be-
lieved the story and took the instruments
As soon as It was learned that some one
had lost surgical instruments he reported
his purchase to the police. The owner was
found in Omaha, a doctor, who identified
his instruments.
Get on with V~RPrancy Charge.
William O'Malley, Tom McHenry, Andy
Dee, Frank Fitzgerald and Richard O'Keefe
we're sentenced for vagrancy yesterday
morning in the South Omaha police court.
They, or part of them at least, were sus-
pected OF breaking into John Riches saloon
and that Of A. j. King in quest of liquor.
All of them at least partook of the liquid
refreshment in a box car in the yards at
the north end of the city. There they were
arrested at daylight and put through for
vagrancy as the evidence in the breaking
case was too circumstantial to warrant it
being brought 10 trial.
TOuRh Makes Tough Dinner.
1t has been said, and is undoubtedly
true, that the meat either makes or spoils
the dinner. You know from your own
experience how disappointed you ave been
and how sore you feel. when you have
/ company for dinner and the roast or steak
is tough and not what you expected. Our
success and high standard of quality is
due to the fact that we use such care on
the selection OF beef. mutton and veal, and
fill our orders in such a way that our
customers are assured OF receiving just
what they want. Why not try us?
