Cousinly Piece
of Work to Do
One Man Complains that His Rela-
tive Soaked Him with Tam
pered Money.

Held for investigation by the United
States secret service officers, Abe Singer,
a shoemaker whose shop is at SIT South
Thirteenth street, may find himself in
serious trouble over a 81 greenback that
was raised to a s. bill, because, as he
says, he just did a favor for his cousin,
Harry Singer.
Harry Singer, Eleventh and Davenport
streets, a lunch stand keeper, went to
Abe Singer Saturday and exchanged the
questionable So bill for smaller change,
according to the story the latter told to
II. b.. Mills of the government secret SER
vice. But Harry now affirms that he gave
Abe a IS gold piece in exchange, instead
of the bill.
When Abe tried to get the bill changed
saturday night at S. Cohen's meat market,
S4 North Sixteenth street. he succeeded and
left with the change. The next day, when
Cohen looked at the bill in daylight, he
discovered how rank a piece OF tampering
1t wal and tried to find Abe Singer.
Not locating him until Monday, Cohen
did not complain to the police until then,
when the case was turned over to the
government officers, who examined Abe
Singer and had him locked up and held
at the police station.
Abe Singer admits passing the bill, but
Harry Singer, whom Abe duplicates, de-
elares he nevor had the greenback.

zINMAN STICGS TO FIVE
Insists That is Proper Rate for o.
cupstion Tax.
IF COUNCIL FAILS, FIGHT ON
Takes No stock I'm Plea offered by
Some CounciImen that Corpora
lions Cannot Afford 60
Pay This.

While rate per cent was not specified In
the party platforms declaring for an oc-
cupation tax on all public service fran
chised corporations occupying the streets
OF Omaha, n was understood that the
tariff was TO be revised downward when
the republican party declared for tariff
revision"
This Is the statement Of former Council
man Harry r.. zimman, the first and prin-
cipal advocate Of the occupation tax move
ment, In reply to some Of the members OF
the present council, who wish TO place the
tax at a figure lower than 5 per cent, and
take refuge in the party platforms which
failed to designate the per cent.
Il still hope thai the council will fix
the tax at s per cent" said MIR. zimmsn,
we can do is to make the best of it. to
be thankful for small favors, and begin a
campaign at once for a 8 per cent tax on
all corporations.
Some of the councilmen say they believe
the companies cannot afford a 8 per cent
tax, but IL the street railway company can
pay $1,000 yearly In dividends, or the gas
company can spend $125, 600 yearly in bet
terments, they surely can pay this tax"
Councilman Brucker is in favor of fixing
the tax at a low figure to start and then
to raise it later II It is found to be equit-
able. Councilman Hummel said he thought
the tax would be placed somewhere about
2R OF SA per cent.
The ordinances will come up for discus.
sion again Wednesday morning.

COUNTY CONVENTIONS CALLED
BY CHAIRMEN OF PARTIES
Republicans Meet Thursday in Pat
tersOn Block and Democrats SAT-
urday at Jim Club Rooms

County Chairman Flynn has called a
meeting of the democratic committee for
this evening to make arrangement
for a county convention to be held Satur-
day and County Chairman Crawford has
called a meeting Of the republican commit
tee for Thursday afternoon. The repub-
lican meeting will be held in the rooms of
the Central Republican club in the Patter-
son block, Seventeenth and Farnam streets,
and the democratic meeting will be held
in the rooms of the Dahlman Democracy
club, Fifteenth and Farnam streets.
Section lis Of the amended election laws
says: There shall be held a delegate
county convention in each county prior to
the time of holding the state convention
provided for in this section, at which con-
vention the delegates to the state conven
ton and the members OF the county central
committee shall be selected"
The time is too short in which to mold
caucuses to select delegates to the county
conventions and Chairman Flynn said he
thought the best thing to do would be to
give precinct members Of the old commit
tee power to appoint delegates to tho
county convention from their respective
precincts. This method he believes will be
chosen by the old committee when 1t meets
this evening,
Chairman Crawford mas no program
mapped out and will leave everything ir
the hands Of the old committee when Il
meets Thursday.

When Mrs. Thomton's last maid left her,
she was entirely without help to care for
the children. Van, the eldest, aged s years,
declared he would help his mother and
little sisters, for was he not mothers little
man? He had heard her say to himself.
But Mrs. Thornton thought it best to
place a want-ad in the Bee.
In a few days a stout looking German
girl made her appearance. She was fairly
good looking and looked healthy and good
natured. Mrs. Thornton resolved to give
her @ trial at least
The first time she combed Lela's long
yellow hair, the comb caught in a tRngle.
and their owner screamed with visor. Anna
was not used to children, but she soon
grew to be very fond Of her little charges.
But II was evident they did not like her,
even baby Maude cried when Anna came
near hear. and all the children thought it
quite a treat when papa or mamma took
them for a walk or drive.
Anna could not talk good English and
was often seen crying over a letter bearing
a foreign post-mark.
One beautiful warm spring afternoon
Mrs. Thornton and the children went TO
the parks. Mrs. Thornton sat down en- the

her, begging for a story. For mamma
was a famous story teller.
1t was, indeed, a pretty sight. The sun
light came slantlng through the trees,
touching Lela's hair and turning It TO
gold. Roger sat on the grass, expectantly
looking up into his mothers brown eyes,
so like his own.
Now for the story, mother" said Van.
Then mother told OF a little girl who
used to live far away over the ocean. with
her mother, father, and little brothers
and sisters. They were poor and had to be
very saving to keep their little home. Fi-
nally when Anna, the oldest girl, was Is,
she wanted to come TO America to work
and earn money 30 her parents could come
here, too.
80 one morning she started away from
home, for the first They were all very
sorry to have her go such a long distance
by herself, but they thought it was for the
best.
When she reached Omaha. she knew no
one and was lonesome and homesick too,

came TO be your nurse. Anna Rheames.
"How do you like that kind Of a storyH
Don't you think The Bee a fine paper for

RUSSIAN REvoLUTIoNIsTs
Kill Baron Cote, Head of Secret Police
Police First Repulsed, but
Secure Artillery.

Moscow.-Baron Cote, chief of the
secret political police, was killed and
Colonel Muraki was wounded in a
fierce encounter Saturday with revolu-
tionists, who were intrenched in a sub
urban villa.
During the fight several policemen
were killed and others wounded. Troops
were summoned to the aid of the po-
licement and a regular battle ensued.
Artillery had to finally be brought
up to lombard the villa before the rev.
olutionists were subdued.
The occurrence is the most serious
since the uprising of December, 1905.
The villa where the fighting took
place occupies a strategic position on
Elkisin, an isle in the river near Mos
cow, and a favorits summer resort.
The leaders Of a revolutionary move
ment were holding a meeting in the
house. The police got wind of the af-
fair and surrounded the villa with the
purpose of making arrests.
AS they approached the house the
revolutionists opened fire. This re-
sistance was unexpected and the police
withdrew.
Then infantry was sent for, and with
this reinforcement a second advance
was made.
The police and the soldiers had to re
tire second time, and it was in this
encounter that Baron Cote was killed
and Murali wounded. Several soldiers
were also killed.
When the artillery appeared few
well directed shots put an end to the
trouble. The losses sustained by tn,
revolutionists are not known, but they
are doubtless heavy.
