Hostility of some Cass county taxpayers

road, an interurbsn line, led to an appeal
yesterday to Judge Thornell on the district

OF the tax Is now in the hands of County
Treasurer E. c. Worthing OF Cass county,
and the railroad promoters have completed
their obligations to a point where they are
in position legally to demand the money.
The treasurer was ready TO pay II when
a lot Of taxpayers. headed by H. z. BARLEY
applied to the Cass county district court
Tor a restraining order. They failed to
carry through their suit but succeeded IN
involving the case IN such obscurity that
Treasurer Worthing was afraid TO pay the
money without court orders. His perplexity
was further increased by a threat from
the railroad managers of suit II he longer
refused. Yesterday the attorneys on both
sides. including County Attorney c. b.
Clovis. representing the county, and FoIlett
and Brough, the other two parties, came
TO Council Bluffs and laid the matter be-
fore Judge Thornell.

payers must complete their application for
an injunction within ten days, and falling

.,hucia al LammermOOr" az the

The Aborn English Grand Opera company
in Lucia di Lammermoor -" an opera In
four acts, by Gaetano Donizetu The
principals:
Lord Edgar Of Ravenswood. ............

Bide-the-Bent, follower OF Sir Henry.
.............. .................. George Shields

Lucy Ashton sir Henry: sister Fein
Alice. her confidante. Hattie Belle Isdd
Conductor, Carlo Nicosis.
Once, at least, in tire course of each
twelve month. the woes of the bride Of
Lammermoor, SCOTS unhappy heroine, are
voiced across the footlights of q local play
house. The plot Of ''Lucia'' is very fierce
and bloodsprlnkled, most OF the principal
characters meeting an untimely death be-
fore the curtain rings down in the final
scene. The music is sweet and mellifluous,
and has held high place in the public
favor ever since its first production,
although it often has little real connection
with the tense and tragic words to which
it is set.
Last evening the opera was sung and
acted by the Aborn English Grand opera
company. with largely the same principals
as appeared Wednesday evening In
''Trovatore." Miss Edith Helena sang the
title role, and invested it with a wealth OF
real feeling. She not only sings remark
ably well, but acts with most refreshing
ease and freedom; she has moreover,
large amount of personal beauty and grace
in her favor, A more fascinating picture
than her appearance in the wedding scene
can hardly be imagined, and in the famous
third act, when she holds the stage alone
during practically the entire scene, her
acting and vooalising were both of the kind
which proclaim the true artist.
Her companion in sorrow, Lord Edgar,
was impersonated by DOmenieo Russo, who
IL one of the few tenors, who,' having
strong and ringing tones at their command,
are yet not afraid to modulate their voices
down TO a mere whisper. Mr.. Russo's soft
tones, as we'll as his more robust passages,
were beautiful to hear, and his conception
Of the entire part was thoroughly original
and interesting.
The important role OF Sir Henry was
taken by Mr.. George Pickering. who re-
peated the success he won as Escamilio
the evening before. Mr.. Green as Sir
Arthur. and Mr.. Shields, as Bide-the- Bent
were both well-cast in their respective
parts, and Miss Ladd was pleasing in the
role OF Alice. These are Of course, minor
parts. but relatively important when the
whole scheme of the work is considered.
The English of the production was keenly
relished by the very large proportion Of the
audience, who prefer to take their opera

Parents and children's Faults.

Parents ought to c%ollaborate with
teachers in helping to develop the
best in their children, and consequent
ly to eliminate the worst. Instead Of
this view of the matter we (says Ella
Wheeler Wilcox) find parents taking
a stand agatnst the teacher who tries
% talk of the faults of their children
and discuss a remedy, and all the
work which the teacher has hoped to
do in character building falls to the
ground under the lifted hammer of the
unwise and belligerent parent, who in
sists that my child" must be without
faults. and that the teacher who sees
faults is an enemy, not a friend. It Is
seldom. indeed. that a man or a wom-
an occupying the position of a teacher
Is prejudiced or has personal or selfish
motives for criticising a child.
