The device of Elias Ghh , of Drorol &

bids fair to make him famous ,
During the heavy thunder storm of Wed

A THBICE DYED VILLAIN.
A Man Wto Entices Ghilton- into Ms
House
By Deceptive Promisee , nnd Submits
Them to Horrible Indignities
Shacking Dctnllf ,
A case of almost Incredibly outrageous
conduct has just been unearthed whiel
for beastly atrocity nni sickening details ,
stands absolutely unparalleled In the
criminal history of this city.
In a plain but substantial residence on
the northeast corner of Eighteenth ant
Gass strcats , lives a man , Charles J. Tyler
lor , who Is probably about GO or 05 years
of ago , hitherto a highly respected citi
zen In this community where ho has long
resided. This man It Is whoso horri
ble depravity it has become necessary
sary to nnoartli In all Its.
hideous character , and who , later on , wll
bo hold to ansrror in the courts of law.
It has boon proven unmlstabably that this
man has boon guilty of enticing little Innocent
nocont girls , some of them not over the
ago of six years , into his houto , anc
practicing upon them the grossest im
moralities.
The discovery of this horrible state of
affairs was first made through the exper
ience of Lulu Trudoll , a little nine year
old daughter of Louis Trndoll , reside n <
at 1715 California street. Mr. Trudjll
Is a well known citizen of Omaha , of un
questioned respectability , and ht present ;
employed in the painting department
of the Union Pacific shops.
The little girl was playing near the
corner of Eighteenth and Gass streets
aboutfour | o'clock Tuesday afternoon In
company with another nine-year old
child of a family resident In the vicinity ,
whoso name Is at present withhold. The
two voro accosted by the man Tyler , who
appeared at the door and told them that
"ho had something nlco for them Inside ,
if they would only come in. " Of conrso ,
the children saw no harm in the appar
ently gullelegs invitation and at
once went insldo. Tyler then
took them In a small room
where they found Janothcr girl of about
five years of ago , with whom the old man
had been taking the most licentious lib *
ortlos. The two older children ho com
menced to coax and wheedle , offering
them cakes and candy , If they would
submit themselves to bis lust. Ho oven
went so far as to toll them that they
must pretend to bo sick and ho would
"play doctor. " Ho finally prevailed.
The little Trudoll girl did not como
homo until quite late that evening and
when she did pnt In an appearance , the
mother , questioning her closely , drew
from her the tale of her experienco.
The child told in an artless manner a
story the faintest suggestion of which
Istoo } shocking for publication. It seems
that this little girl ha * bean In the habit
of going Into the Tyler mansion for
about two weeks past , and that the other
little girl had been in the habit of visit
ing "Undo" Tyler , as she called him ,
for-Bovcral months. Sbo says , further
more , that there are several other
children in the neighborhood who have
bad a similar experience with this vile
leper.
A .reporter called Wednesday upon the
little Trndell girl , who , after overcoming
the firat instinctive feelings of childish
bashfnlness , told the narrative in such a
manner as to leave no room for doubt
that she was giving utterance to the
truth. The story of the other two chil
dren agrees in every particular with the
account given by the little girl.
Aside from the evidence of the chil
dren , which is of the most convincing and
damning character , Tyler himself fur
nishes the beat testimony of his own
guilt. When ho was confronted Tuesday
night by the mothers of two of the chil
dren who had been victims to his lust , bo
assumed an air of braggadocio and pre
tended to deny the charges ; but ho
weakened visibly when his wife , who
feels terribly about the matter , told him
to his face that he knew ho was guilty ,
and no perjury could release him from the
deed. Ho now realizes fully
his responsibility for the out
rageous crime , or rather series of
crimes , and is begging plteously for
mercy. The parents of thq children ,
however , express a determination not to
allow the matter to rest. They feel that
thera is no safety for the honor of them
selves and their children , while the con
taminating InQuonco of this viper is felt
through the neighborhood.
Comment is not necessary on this mat
tor. There is but ono thing to bo done
with this villain whose sense of decency
is so charred and blackened as that the
moral ruin of innocent children is the
accomplished purpose of his life. Ho
should bo prosecuted to the fullest limit
of the law. Mr. Trndell is determined
to have Tyler arraigned on the criminal
charge as soon as District Attorney Es-
tollo returns.

THE BASE BALL SITUATION ,
Another ncrioua Complication "Which
II s Arisen , ,
The base ball question la still a vexed
ono. The situation is about this :
The Sherman avenue grounds wore
formerly leased by the Omaha Athletic
and Cricket association. The lease was
mado. out in the name of two men , belonging
longing to the organization , Dr. Lanyon
the Sixteenth atroot physician , and A. 8
Troloar , a well known sporting man , of
dead beat proclivities. Treloar became
involved in debt and skipped the town ,
and consequently tbo lease was held by
Dr. Lanyon. This
. gentleman was approached
preached by Mr. Hey , tbo prospective
manager of tbo now league club , to
gether with Messrs. Drexel and Good
rich. Doctor Lanyon agreed to reserve
the lease for the base ball club , and to
allow no other organization to secure It.
In this , Messrs , Drexel and Gopdrlch
claim ho deliberately broke faith , in al
lowing the bicycle club to gain the leave
of the park. This action on the part of
the wheelmen was a tritla underhanded ,
ta sprat mildly , and Dr. Laoyon'a action
is much the tamo.
After cecurlog the leaaa the committee
of the bicycle men came around to the
bueball people , who at present represent
Mr. yHoy'a interests in the matter , and
coolly offered to allow them to play
the regular schedule games and
ten ixlra ones , provided the
B B committee ss lat them to ratio
tbo neceuary funds to pay the indebud-l
now. This quAsl-gencrous proposition
the base ball committee do not jump at
with any great degree of joy. They have ,
however , submitted It In writing to Mr.
Hey , who Is now In Kantni City and
npon his acceptance of the tonne , the
question ot the organization of the league
baio ball club depends. An answer is
expected to-day.

COSIPABATIVE TEMFKltAICIlB.
The GamblerH' Choice.
These gentlemen of elegant leisure
Intend to support Boyd to a man. A
prominent sporting man said t oa reporter
yesterday morning : "Ho always used "us
square when ha was mayor before and
wo will support any inch man. "
Another well-Informed gambler aaid
that times were dull and that (
houses did not feel like standing heavy
"assessments , "
Dan. Angcll , Boyd'a olty marshal la
said rather to have fostered gambling
concerns than to restrict their privileges
In any way. "Skin earnes1' were al
lowed to run as openly as
"square games , " and it Is
certain that at no time
In the history of tha city was there
moro gambling , and moro "atin gam
bling" too , than during tbo Incumbency
of Bojd , The gamblers are therefore
very anxious to have him mayor again.
The recent raid on Denver gimblora has
brought many of' ' thorn here , some ' to lo
cate permanently , and others to wait
until they are allowed to return west.
During Boyd'a term of office Angell
bad gamblers taxed or filed $5.00 per
month. Under tbo proiont adminlatra
lion they have to pay monthly fines o
$27.00 , which they do not like , partlcu
larly when business Is dnll , as they
sy U Is now. With Boyd they hope for
a return of Hush times and tbia la the
tenor of mind evinced by alt tbosa talked
with. There are at least 125 professional
gamblers in tbia city , men who do noth
ing else. Besides there are many known
"tin-horn" who when
as - gamblers , play
they have money and "stand In" with the
profoseiorm'a. ' With the attaches and
hangers on the camblera can easily con
trol from 200 to 300 votes , which may be
enough to decide tha election.

MORE ABOUT HEWITT.
A Bee Reporter Finfls a Nan Who Knew
W , H.Hewilt Well ao Knows
His Family in Daven
port ,
The Trno Story of his Coining to
Omaha iul How ho OAIIIO to
Fall Into the Dltuh.
"Aro you Mr. , employed on the
BEE , sit ? I was looking over the paper a
day or so ago and saw an ariiclo
about Mr. W. n. Hewitt , whoao mvstorl
ons death about two years ago in Omaha
puzzled BO many persons at that time
though until recently almost forgotten. '
This was the manner In which n BEE
reporter wai approached by a gentleman
In the city yesterday.
"I am , sir , ono of the BEE'S employes
what can I do for you ? " was answered.
The speaker at once g&vo his name
profession , rctldonco and present busi
ness and then , having especially
made the understanding with the news
paper man that his name should remain
nnrevoalcd , until ho permitted its use
unless it became necessary in the
reporter's opinion to glvo it , the
gontlomrn proceeded : "I know NV. H
Hewitt for a long tlmo , well , I may say ,
almost Intimately. Ho lived In Marlon ,
Linn county , Iowa , where > ho kept f
ready made clothing store and was pro
prietor of the Park Place hotel , the loadIng -
Ing hotel of that city of about tivo thous
and Inhabitants. Ho had a family o :
highly respected sons and daughters ; on <
of the sons was a railroad conductor am
the other n student at the law school al
Iowa City.
(1 know him , I Esid , very well , seeing
him almost dally , and frequently havinp
such business relations with him as tc
glvo mo opportunity to thoroughly un
derstand him and his private affairs.
Numbers of the railroad employes ,
clerks , conductors , engineers , etc ,
boarded at the Park Place hotel , and it
was duo to this fact that Mr. Hewitt was
in Omaha some two or two and a hall
years ago. Ho accepted the Invitation of
some railroad man to ride out with him
to Council Blufta and Omaha , to sco the
rapidly growing rivals on opposlto sides of
the Missouri. It is hardly a matterof doubt
that while walking about the city looking
over it , as any other visitor would have
done , ho mot with the fall from the nar
row walk way which terminated in the
loss of his life.
There wera few men in Marion who
stood higher than Mr. Howett for gen
erosity , public spirit and upright conduct ,
and I was sad when the telegram flashed
the news cf his death to his family. His
body was burled at Davenport , where the
family now reside , ana I hoard there was
some bother in some way about the $10-
000 life Insurance he carried being col-
collected by his heirs. Why this should
bo I cannot understand , for ho was a
prompt business man and I venture had
his policy strictly in accordance with the
law. "
"These facts , Mr. , might bo of
nco to somebody , and if yon will permit
it I will give your name and address , "
said the reporter.
"No , no ; if you please , I prefer not.
la the first place , I do not desire news
paper notoriety , which I regard as the
stock in trade of fools and vain upstarts
or cranks , except in casa of business and
necessity. And in the next , the publica
tion of my name might cause mo an
amount of annoying correspondence
without any real benefit resulting te any
body. You , however , Mr. Reporter , are
free to use my name and address in this
relation , whenever your good judgment
tells yon it can bo useful to anyone , or
for any good purpose , " and with these
words the gentleman turned the conver
sation to the sudden change In the air
and bowed himself away , leaving the re
porter to gather np tbo point shore written ,
with the hope that they may bo useful to
the deserving.
A8SESSOBS' ' MEETING ,
Practical Questions Bottled Work
Begun Yesterday ,
Wednesday there was a fall mooting of
the assessors In the clerk's oflico and they
agreed on several lines of action in their
official work , among these , to assess the
personal effects of U. S. army officers as
though they were in civil life ; to tax
dogs ; to enter the Omaha military reser
vation and list for taxation all personal
property found there ; and they decided
that they who actually view the personal
property liskd for taxation are the better
jndgoa of its value and hence the custom
of coanty commissioners to charge the
valuation put on property by the asses
sors was a bad one. Information was re
ceived from the commissioners that moro
trouble arose from the valuation placed
on property along the dividing lines of
precincts than from any other source.
The clerk distributed blanks and maps
among the assessors who began their
work yesterday forenoon.

"WorkinKiuen , OlorkH , Attention !
The attention of the friends of the
wcrkingmen is called to the fact that Mr ,
J. P. Lund Is a candidate for a position
on the school board. This man Lund
was approached lait fall by the clothing
clerks with an agreement signed by every
other clothing merchant in the city to
close the s'.orea at 7 o'clock each evening ,
except C turd y , during the dnll season.
[ t needed but his eignature to give the
men an hour's recreationfom | their usual
bnrteen hours conitant work. Lund ,
or the sake of a fair paltry dollars which
10 might loio in salei , refused to cien the
> aper. We now call on our fellow labor-
irs in every occupation to rebuke this
man's treatment of his workmen by an
anlmonsly sitting down on him At th
coming election.
THE Otonnxa
THE WORKINOMEN ,
How They Kcol ml Tulle Abou
lloytl nn a Murphy ,
The action of the worklngmon Wcdncs
day night In their enthusiastic - endorsement
mont of Mnrphy is regarded with favo
by the majority of the working people.
The efforts of John Qnlnn , Jaso
Lowia and others to obstruct the procooc
ings lu behalf of Boyd were looked upo
with great disgust by parties who wen
Into the convention with honesty
purpose to voice the sentiment of a mn
jorlty of the tollers.
It will bo remembered that Qulnn
Lewis , William Whlto and Ed. W < i
were the most violent and bitter op
pononta of Boyd and his conrsa dnrin
the B. & M. dump atrlko in 1882. A
present they are load in their support o
Boyd , nnd Wednesday night all of them
with the exception of Whlto , use
every moans to tubvort th
wishes of a great majority
the delegates. A few toughs and parti
drnnkon men evidently In Boyd'sinterei
yelled and hooted every time any motion
was made to proceed with business. Thl
element was finally aquolched nnd th
proceedings thereafter were orderly am
harmonious.
It Is strongly hinted that Qutnn , Lewi
and Walsh have boon well paid for the !
"conversion" to the Boyd movementbu
as their methods are notorious the inilu
once supposed to bo theira will not prov
very much.
After the convention a knot
professional worklngmon discussed
situation with regard to the mono ;
question. ' 'Boyd has a larB
'bundle , ' and I understand will 'glvo up
liberally , " said ono whisky-vlsagod gen
tloman. "If ho wants to putnpth
spondulicks ho can have my influence/
and ho rattled two or three nickel
around in his pocket.
"Mlno too , " said another , "and hi
friends will bo around to BOO us , inos
likely. "
While this Is the sentiment of a foi
disreputable ? , the vast majority of hon
eat men are firm in their faith In Mur
phy , and nlno-tontho of the working
mona' ' vote will bo cast for him.
