Olympia, Wash, Dec. SIN coll
lectins personal property taxes it is
immaterial to the tax collector who
has title to the property. It can be
distrained wherever found AMI sold
for taxes. This is the text Of a de-
cision given By the supreme court
today in the case Of the Lewis Con-
struction company against the treas
urer of King county, to keep the
treasurer from distraining two mo-
tiers used by the company the title
to which rests with the Westinghouse
Electric company.
The superior court of King coun-
ty sustained a general demurrer to
the complaint and the action was
dismissed from which judgment the
construction company appealed. The
company contended that the motors.
which were taxed at $S723, belong
ed to the Westinghouse people as
the construction company was buy
ing them on the installment plan.
and would not get title until paid
tor The construction company re-
fused to pay the personal property
tax and sued to restrain the county
treasurer from levying upon the mo-
tors and selling the same for taxes.
The supreme court holds that the
property can be held for taxes, no
matter who should pay the taxes,
which is separate question, accord
ing to the decision. The statutes
provide for the collection OF the tax
e., and that the property can be held
for the same. The supreme court
holds that the complaint failed to
state a cause to distrain the sale
Of the motors and that. thejudgnent
OF the lower court is affirmed.

offers the above tender Of thanks
which was signed by each Of the
jurors as reply to the attack Of one
of them, F. T. Robbins, of Lake Che
Ian, who said to the Daily World re-
porter that the jury was improperly
treated during its confinement. Mr..
Ferguson thinks it is very strange
that these kicks about aecommoda-
tons should have been made at this
time instead Of when the ireonveni-
ences were claimed to have been suf-
fered.
He does remem Der, however, that
Juror Robbins had great deal to
say on almost every subject and
asked innumerable questions all the
time he was in charge Of the bail
ifs. Mr. Robbins was the man with
whom Judge Grimshaw and the law
yers for both the defense and the
state had so much difficulty while he
was under examination for jury SER
vice.
The Harvard graduate who is now
a rancher on Lake Chelan was very
anxious to escape jury duty He
insisted that he was unable to take
the oath to act in accordance with
the courts instructions. not knowing
in advance all of the law which
would be laid down in these instruc-
lions. If such an attitude were
taken by each juror, it would be i'm
possible to make up jury. Mr..
Robbins was, therefore, compelled to
serve under protest and it was not
iced that while the twelve men were
being sworn in. their right hands
raised, Mr.. Robbins lips did not
move when his colleagues replied to
the question Of the county clerk, Il

One OF the well known and popular busi-
ness men Of Omaha, Fred Brodegaard, the

twenty-five years Of business in the city.
Born in the city OF Assens, Denmark,
where his family for generations have
been watchmakers, the business continuing
from father to son, he was made an ap-
prentice and put to the bench at an early
age. his own father teaching him the trade.
AS a matter OF course he was expected to
continue the paternal business.
However. when coming Of age and being
thoroughly familiar with the craft. Fred
felt q desire for larger opportunities than
his small, rather quiet native town af-
forded. The tide Of emigration from Den
mark to the United States set in pretty
strong those years and he followed the
thousands OF his countrymen. crossing the
Atlantic to New York. coming straight 70
his destination, Chicago, where he obtained
pOsitiOns-first with the Elgin watch fac
tories, later with wholesale house.
But the desire for independence being
strong In him, and having faniliarized
himself with American methods Of the
trade he came 70 Omaha, where he started
business in a small way at Tenth and
Jackson streets twenty-five years ago. TIL,
business grew and prospered. Mr. Brode
gard soon gained a large circle OF friend,
and felt justified in charging his facilitie,

that the stock was very attractive TO
some Of the large concerns, as the
house had been known TO be very care
| full in the selection Of It's merchandise
! and had carried some extensive lines
Of the best-knoWn staples.
The news that the big St Louis house
! has secured the entire stock will AFFORD
a considerable relief to the market as
q whole, as the merchandise method In
handling the goods may be relied upon
TO conserve all interests and At the
same time stimulate distribution.
The Lowenstein stock Is estimated at
approximately $500, 900, 20 per cent of
which is in original packages A large
proportion was only recently delivered.
During their liquidation sale Of the last
| two months the old stock and odd lots
were sold out, with a view of possible
reorganization, thus leaving the bal
ance high-clAss and of desirable char
acter Sixty per cent of the stock IL

of such merchandise is In great de-
mand, owing to curtatlment Of mills
and slow delivery.

stock. They will continue in the retail
business. The Rice-Stix Company have
engaged q number of their principal
men, will remove the goods to st.
Louis and due announcement of sale
will be made later, possibly in three
or four weeks. They have already be-
gun moving full packages, and as fast
as the goods can be inventoried and
packed they will be forwarded, moor
