PAPERS ARE FAULTY
VARIOUS IRREGULARITIES IN Oh.
TANNING NATURALIZATION.
ACTION Of FEDERAL ATTORNEY

ct Lines In Dundy County
Must Walt.

Because Of various irregularities in
obtaining naturalization papers. six
teen Nebraska residents Of different
nationalities viii probably have to 20
through the process of being made
citizens . second time. Papers have
been completed in the ONCE of United
States Attorney A. w. Lane for fling
In the federal court attacking the
validity Of their certificates. Most of
those whose citizenship is thus called
into question live at Omaha and
South Omaha, but others are scattered
over the state. The list includes Ger
mans, BOhemians, Scandinavians.
Italians. an Irishman or two and 9TH
ers of miscellaneous nativity.
The suits to have the DEGREES of
naturalization set aside will be COM
menced In the districts where the
persons respectively live. Only two
OF the number will be filed in the
Lfrcoln division. In some cases It
will be alleged that the individual was
naturalfzed illegally before he had
been In this country five years. An.
other ground will be that some of
them were more than 10 years old on
arriving in this country and did not
make formal declaration of their in
tentiOn to become citizens, which is
required of all except those coming
here as minors. In one or two in
stances the claim will be made that
the certificate is defective because
witnesses for the person naturalized
were not themselves citizens.

About Bank Assessments.


In reply to a recent inquiry Henry
Seymour. secretary of the state board
of assessment and equalization, has
written the following statement of
how state, national and savings banks
are assessed:
Estate, national and savings banks,
domestic and foreign, are assessed
upon the value of their capital stock,
and taxes are levied upon a per cent
basis, the same as all other property
in this state is taxed. The value of
the stock is found by taking the mar
ket value of the same. together with
the surplus and undivided profits,
from which is deducted the real es-
tate and other tangible property of
the bank, which is assessed separate
ly. The names of the stockholders
and the amount owned by each are
listed by the bank, but the tax is
levied against and paid by the bank.
Trust companies are assessed the
same as banks. Building and loan
associations are assessed only on
their real estate, but the shares of
the stock in the same are held to be
credits and are assessed to the own
ers and the members of the associa-
ton. Deposits in savings banks as
well as all other banks are listed
and assessed to the depositors. The
rate of taxation varies in the several
taxing districts of the state because
of difference in the amount of the
lew for local TAXATION"

building is nearly half finished. and 1t 10
expected that service will be held in it
about Easter time. The choir is quite
finished, except for the reredos, stalls aud
mosaic flooring, and these are being put
in now. The crossing under the central
dome has been inclosed with temporary
walls until such time as the nave can be
added, and the cathedral is ready to hold
even in it's present state, 5000 persons-a
larger audience than any other church In

for. Two Of the seven chapels also are
quite finished, and this week IL was an

PECULIAR CARCASS IS
FOUND in new JERSEY
RESEMBLES A CAT AS TO HEAD
AND BODY, BUT HAS I'M
MENSE FEET.

Burlington, N. j.. Oct. 21.--R any
body ever doubted that a Jersey deviI''
left its uncanny footprints in the snow
Of this and adjoining states last win
ter, here is the proofs that the scare
was never due to highballs 1t is the
carcass Of the queerest animal ever
seen. a beast that is net listed In any
natural history ever read by any one
of this region. The carcass, still in
good shape, was found by Morris Ca
binsky and another boy, Of Roebling,
in the woods near Kinkora, yesterday,
and Is now on exhibition in this city
where hundreds Of people have seen
and marveled at It.
The animal is about two feet long,
slender of body, with some resem-
blance to a cat as to head and fur, but
with two fore legs that look more like
the hind legs of a kangaroo, only they
have four distinct joints and terminate
in bony feet of large dimensions.
The hind legs are rather like those
OF cat, but much larger. The neck
is long and slender and the head very
small in proportion to the rest of the
body.
Last winter several persons said they
caught glimpses of the Jersey deviP'
but all averred that 1t few.
