The following is the niii'h annual re port of the Omaha City Mission for the year ending December Jllth , 1884. Many of our citiztns arc familiar with the life and wok of the mission since it was organixcd nine years ago , but for the benefit of the numotons readers of your paper who arc nor , we will give an outline - line of its organization. The mission was founded October 28'h ' , 1875 , and was first called "Tho Christian Wo kom Association , " its object being , of the constitii ion fta cd , "to advance the Into usts of the Christian religion by active clrisinn work.

To such A\o can say that a visit to uither of the schools illanswcr the question better than the mere nsso > tion that it is. ' 1 ho fact that for nine years , through rain and shiiio , storm and cold , th oiigh all the changes that take place in n now city , this mission has kept "tho oven tenor of its way , " mid 1ms scarcely lost a session of cither school ; the fact that teachers have always been found who were willing to teach- the fact that from the pro's and pulpit of our city wo have always received woids of encou'ngemcnts and "God speed" ; the fnct that a most generous public , whoso cliild wo are , has taken n fatheily care o\cr us and provided us with a Homo , money , wearing apparel , coal , eatables and numerous good dinners , has given us t .lining , mentally and morally , has gmn us enjoyment in picnics , dinners , sociables and Chris1 inns trees , nnd even a lot in "God s Acio" that wo can call our own ; these facts prove that the mission is a. success , and show the IC.ISOIIB why.

Ho bought some furni- turj of M. F. Martin on credit , and be gan keeping hnuss on the corner of Thirteenth and Jonoa etroats. It sacms that hia business did not pan out very well nnd ho soon found himself pressed for cash. Ho o-ncludod at last that Omaha was not a good town tor him nnd concluded to return to his favorite haUnts in Missouri. About n week ono ho packed up his household goods and ttnrted them lor the depot. Souuono Infoimcd Mr. Martin hit the man wna moving and na ho still owed the installment man quitn a bil- anco on the furniture , ho concluded to look him up.

Tlio verdict was neb unexpected , for the ovldoncj Ihronghouthad been of the moat poaitivo character. It was indeed , such 5n ono an could not but hnvo fol lowed from a careful rovlow of the testi mony elicited ; and Judge TlfT ny , who presided during the trial , aa well ss thoao roprcatntirg the state , Prosecuting At torney Marshall , Judge Russell nod Counsellor Mungcr mmt bo accorded high praiao for the rcsulb of the trial , which cinnot but bo well received by thofls who nro nworo of ( ho circumstances on liondith mallco counootcd with the case. case.Tho history of the attempted train rm eking , as al&o of the manner in which the wretched miscreant was detected In hlo guilt , ia replete with points of inter est both to the local and general public. On the night of the 28th of October , the wcAt-bound Denver train , on the Union FdclQc , jumped the track at a point two milo3 cast of Schnylcr , and about seventy-five miles west of Omaha. The cause of the ncsldcnt was found to bo an obstruction In the shape of four tica laid ncrots the track. Despite the faot that no praat injury hsd been entailed by the accident , the excite ment wan very high , and every ciibrc was mndo to detect the author of the crimo. Upon the night of the accident , the train dispatcher at Schnylcr was approached preached by a young man , Frank Iluldt , who told him of a plot which ho had overheard discussed by a parly of tramp ? . The scheme won to throw the train off the track , and then to waylay and rob the passenger ; . The notification of the plot H3 detailed by Iloldt c rno too late , however , to avert what might have been a torrlblu accident. The Union Pacific dootctlvcs were sot lo work out the mystery but failed utterly in arriving nt a satisfactory cmclucion. The company , believ'ng the "tramp plot , " were about to reward Boldt , when Detective J. J. Neligh was qulatly called Into the CS83. Tnat gentleman , astutely prcolvlng that a wrong occnt had mil- load these in charge of tbo caio , at once formulated and followed up the theory that Heldt wan the real culprit. Shad ows were placed to watch and record every movement of the suspected man. A partial confestion was finally made by Heldt to ono of the detectives connected with the caio. The ahedowod man , too eager to follow up his nsw Una of work , oven proposed to ono of the "ahadowa" a plan for the repetition of the train wreck ing performance , This time , to fully secure the reward bo proposed to the detective to capture some drnnken fellow , take him oomo dis tance oat on the track , throw ties over the rails , and then , rc-capturlng the drunken man , to take him to the station nnd lay claim to reward , as having cap tured the train-wrcckor. Finally , by careful and persistent ef fort , the chain of evidence was no com pletely forged that there was every assurance of Heidi's guilt. Ho was brought to Omaha , and taken to the cilice of General Manager Gallon ay. Here ho was confronted by Detective Neligh , who svaa introduced as the assist ant general manager. Under the skillful questioning of that gentleman , Heldt made confused and damaging statements , amounting almost to a confession He was temporarily placed in tbo county jail , and shortly afterward taken to Schuyler. While In the county jail at thin point , Heldt was Induced to write a letter to the supposed . .barrister who was to defend him , in which ho made a full and detailed statement of the circumstances of the crimo. Thij letter was written in the presence of a detective who had been placed in hia cell , on some fictitious charge , and to whom also he made certain remarks crim inating himself. The trial at Schuylor developed many interesting points. Detective iJellgh testified , when shown n certain anonymous and threatening loiter vhlch Holdt had claimed ta re ceive , that ho bad formed the conclu sion at once , from the character of the handwriting , that it was written by Heldt himself , and that its substance was purely fictitious. This theory , in deed , was fully borne out by subsequent testimony When Engineer Dolan was placed en the stand , among other questions , hu was asked how the tics on the track ahead had appeared to him. "Well , air , " ho replied , "they looked line my coffin. They formed a plotura which I always oee before mo until I go to my grave. " Dolan , also , when aiked by certain parties why ho bad told his fireman I o jump and did not leap himself replied , ' I could not leave the jngina , for I had lives behind me.
