The sparring ] match between "Baby"

liberally applauded , at thocloso of each round

Captain Edwin Pollock , late com

the bannister of the first flight of italrs
In the Intor-Ocoan hotel at 11:30 : o'clock
last night and crushed hla skull , from
vrhlch ho died at 2 o'clock this morn
Ing. The Captain was going to his
room , No. 31 , In the hotel , and was pre
ceded two stops by Charles Goodaoll ,
night innnnger of the hotol. At the
turn in the bannister , where the slops
narrow , the Captain stopped and looked
ever at James Julian , who was passing
below , and remarked upon the rod in
Mr. Juli&n'o O. A. II. uniform. At that
Instant ho made a misstep and foil baok-
wnrd and headlong over the bnunistor to
the floor , n distance of twelve foet. In
the fall ho partially ttruck Mr. Julian ,
but not enough to break the force. Ho
struck the bick of liia head and fractured
the nkull.
The unfoitnnato gentleman TIM carried
to his room and attended by Drs. May-
nerd and Taylor. At 2 o'clock this
morning ho expired , never having re
covered conclonsnoss.
Edwin Pollock onllslcd in the army
for the union from Philadelphia. Dur
ing the war ho fought bravely and bril-
lantly , and was promoted to the cap-
talncy. Ho was then assigned to the
frontier aorvico and In the Ninth infantry
came west. Ho commanded the past at
what It now Fort McKinney , then ono
of great danger. Ho superintended the
building of McKinney. I Afterwards ho
was detailed as quartermaster gnneral In
Now Mexico and served ably. Ho had
been In the service altogether 26 years ,
when recently retired on account of phys
ical disability.
There was a romance in the life of Cap
tain Pollock , which was known to a few
of his most Intimate friends. If ho has
bad in late years a failing at times , it
may have been attributed to a disappoint
ment of heart which has made many a.
good man weak and endeavor ta drown
his sadness.
Always a gentleman , an officer of high
est character and fine military qualifica
tions , his death will be mourned by
hundreds who know him to reaped and
love his estimable aud general qualities.
The officers at Fort D. A. Rusaoll will
probably make suitable preparations for
the obsequies.
A BRIEF SKETCH.
Captain Pollock was well known In
Omaha , having many frlnnds and ac
quaintances not only among the military
men hero but among the older residents
of this city. Some brief mention there
fore of his career may not bo nmiae.
Ho was a man of about 50 years of age ,
having been born In Hanlsburg , Pa ,
where his relatives still live. In 18G1 ho
entered the Union army as n private in
the twenty-filth infantry , which position
ho hold until promoted in the service , to
the second lieutenancy of the
ninth infant r/ where ho remained
until appointed captain of the ninth in-
fantiy. At the clos3 of the ivar of the
rebellion ho * WM odered to the Pacific
coast and for twenty years lias served at
various stations throughout the west.
His career as an Indian fighter was espec
ially prolific of thrilling experiences.
Latterly , ho has been in command of Co.
E , Ninth infantry , at Fort D. A. Rus
sell , Cheyenne , A short time ago , some
throe or four weeks since , ho was ordered
to report before a retiring bo rd which
was sitting in special session in this city.
By this body , much against his
will , ho was placed on the
retired list on account of physical dis
ability. It appears that several years
a"o ; ho was riding through the streets o
Omaha In a buggy , with Dr. Grimes ,
when ho was thrown violently upon the
ground , sustaining severe Internal in
juries. Thojo were aggravated by an
accident of a similar character which ho
sustained at Fort Russell some time
later. Paralysis sot in which rendered
the fall discharge of his duties Impossible.
For those reasons , as well as others of a
minor nature , the board doomed it best
to retire Captain Pollock.
Ho was a bravo and ofliciont officer , al
ways ready for the full discharge of the
duty assigned to him. His terrible and
untimely death will furnish a theme of regret -
grot to the imny friends and acquaintan
ces of his western career.

Let the Public Read and Learn where
Eivalry Overreaches Itself.
The Misfit Clothing Parlors 1312 Douglas street , have recently been re-
celvingsome extensive free1 advertising from a ready-made clothier who
probably imagines that by abusing us he is bettering himself , well if he
thinks so let him keep on , It amuses him and dent hurt us , We expected
to hear some one "squeal" when we opened business here. The individ
ual who has been getting rich by charging high prices always , "squeals"
when someone comes along and calls extortion by selling goods at rea
sonable figures. The grocer who sands his sugar is generally the individ
ual who prates the most obout his own honesty , and accuses all his rivals
with being rogues. We wish to enter into no controversy with anyone.
The individual who loses his head , and neglects his business to abuse a
rival , isgenerally a poor business man. Weare not talkingabout any one in
particularbut there aresome people right here whom our remarks.particu-
larlyfits.forthe plain truth is that misfits are nearly as numerous as perfect
fits , besides making mistakes in fits. The tailors have thousands of dollars
worth of garments annually left on their hands by parties ordering suits ,
pants or overcoats , and then refusing to take them. The misfit dealer is
isthe only market the tailor has for these goods , because a rival says there
are no misfits , it doesn't make it so , it merely demonstrates that he either
didn't know what he was talking about or else he knowingly made a
"misfit" statement. Let the public judge between us , abuse is not argu
ment , neither is it good sense. See what we offer , compare our goods
with cheap ready made clothing and see if ourga ments do not demons
trate that they are superior cloth and tailor made ,
