The statement that Meat Inspector Hleh-
Bteln of Omaha recently discovered that
lump-jawed cattle were being brought to this
city and killed for market appeared in these
columns n few days ago , and since then the
local butchers have been up In arms , as cer
tain parties have'Insinuated that they were
Belling the diseased meat. Last Saturday a
couple of boys found the place where the cat
tle were killed and discovered three men at
work slaughtering more of the stock. It was
learned that llvo head of lump-Jawed cattle
were driven to this side of the river a week
ago last Sunday night. Two were killed
Thursday and two more Saturday. The
llfth , a bull , was found tied among the wil
lows between the two bridges Saturday fore
noon. The place of slaughter Is Just north of
the now bridge. Captain Martin visited the
place yesterday ami found three men , who
had Just led the bull to the spot and were pre
paring to kill it. At tlio approach of the
ofllcer they fled , but ho captured one of them ,
who gave his inline as Hans Jensen , and
stated that his companions were named Cann
nnd Overgard. Ho said they were ull from
Omaha.
To the reporter , who saw him at the city
Jail , ho stated that the ethers had offered him
05 cents per head for helping them kill the
cattle , and said the meat was sold In Omaha.
1 lo did iiQtknow the names of the Omaha
butchers , but mild : "One of them is a one-
armed man and keeps a shop on Thirteenth
street between Jones and Jackson , and the
other , I think , is on Capitol avenue near
Twelfth street. They never sold any diseased -
eased meat on this side of the river that I
know of , "
Jensen will bo held until the case Is thor
oughly investigated. Warrants will bo Issued
for the arrest oftlm other parties implicated ,
and they will bo arrested.

filing a fresh lot of petitions against the

A thorough Investigation Of the causes
leading to the demolishing of Dr. Bates'
buggy on Fifth avenue Sunday evening dur
ing a runaway throws an altogether different
light on the matter and relieves Motorman
No. 15 from nil blamo. It seems that the
horse wns almost beyond control when ho
turned west on Fifth avenue from Tenth *
street , nnd at that time the motor was standIng -
Ing still , letting oft passengers , and the only
ringing of the bell wns the signal to start.
The motor was not. started until after the
buggy capsized , and was then run slowly to
the scene of the accident , but It did not col
lide with the buggy.
Dr. Bates was not present at the time , and
hii knowledge of the affair was gained from
spectators who were greatly excited at the
time , and the vivid coloring they gave the
story was probably unintentional. In this
way the accident found its way into the
papers , nnd the account was therefore over
drawn. The heap of dirt th.it capsized tlio
buggy was the cause of the wreck , and the
probabilities are that it would have occurred
even if the motor had not been there. Dr.
Bale * says that now that he understands the
situation ho will not Institute a damage suit
against the motor company , but against the
city or the party who caused the'dirt to bo
placed there.
The Boston Store this week will bo the

The case of Howard vs the Chicago , Mil

is that ot Ollio Dorso.v vs the Oinalnut Coun
cil BlulTs railway and bridge company. The
plaintiff was injured about a year ago in
Jumping from one of the company's motors on
the bridge to avoid a collision , and sues to re
cover damages. *
The grand Jury met yesterday in adjourned
scsslmi , and 1ms about two weeks' work be
fore if. Subpoenas have been issued for a
large number of witnesses , and the sheriff's
deputies jiro kept busy.
A large number nf subpoenas have also
been issued for witnesses to bo called in
criminal cases , as the criminal docket will bo
opened next Monday. The tlrdt case to bo
called is that of state vs Frank Kane for as
sault with intent to kill is also set for trial
the same day. Tlio murder case against
William Boartz is set for next Tuesday.
Loyal and Hubul Workmen.
"This is tlio rebel grand lodge that meets
here this week , ' declared a local member of
the Ancient Order of United Workmen to
Tin : BIK : yesterday. "The rupture occurred
about eight years ago , and has never healed.
The loyal lodge of the Ancient Order of
United Workmen will have nothing to do
with them. This Session of the grand lodge
is held hero for the purpose of booming the
rebel brunch in this city. There is unite a
bitter feeling between the two factions here ,
and they have nothing to do with each other.
The loyal lodges don't recogni/.c the members
of the rebel lodge as Ancient Order of United
Workmen brethren , and would not take
them into their lodge without a regular ini
tiation.
As far as the order is concerned , the mem
bers of the local loyal lodge will pay no at
tention whatever to the visitors , but as
strangers in the city will do what they can
to make their stay hero pleasant. "

National Farmers'
Tlio secretary , Hon. B. F. Clayton , has de
cided to locate the tenth annual session of the
National Farmers' congress at ' Council Bluffs ,
la. , August 2(5 ( , 27 , 2S and ! > ! ) . ,
The delegates will probably number six
hundred , drawn from every state , in tlio
union.
They are appointed and commissioned by
tlio governors of the respective states nnd
comprise the representative men of the en
tire country.
It will bo the most important gathering
this city Inm ever secured , and it behooves
this community to show an enterprising nnd
progressive spirit.
Ample provision should bo made and the
oporu house placed at the disposal of the con
gress , and a cordial and hospitable welcome ,
not only extended to the delegation , but
every citizen should strive to see how much
ho can do to make every member of the dele
gation at homo and to carry away with them ,
if anything , pleasanter remembrances than
when they have heretofore met in their an
nual scssslons.

Scene In the Great Cock 1'lt at Manila ,
Where JtoosterN ClaHli Spurn.
The olive-.skinnod mestixtis , linlf-cnsto
doneemlnntB of emigrated Spaniard nnd
imtivo Indian , are the imtivcs of Manila.
Philippine TslundH. They Htep daintily
along on bare feet uncased in chinuhiH ,
embroidered heellesH .slippers , with gny
Muttering garments of junl , a woven
mixture of nilk and pine fibre , tlioii1
loose , jet-black hair reaching sometimes
almost to the ground one woman was
pointed out to mo whoso hair was said
to bo eighty inches long anil their
deep , dark eyes passing over you in lan
guid surprise.
The native men are a community which
has forgotten to tuck its shirt into its
trousers. Their costume consists of a
pair of whlto trousers ami an elaborately
plaited and starched shirt , with the tails
Hying about. Every one is smoking a
cheroot , and every other one has a game
cock under his arm , a constant compan
ion and chief treasure , until the deadly
spur on the heel of a stronger or pluck
ier rival turns all its pride and brilliance
into a shapeless heap of blood and feath
ers in the dust , while a thousand voices
execrate its memory.
The great cock nit of Manila at the
"Fiesta del Pueblo ' is one of the most
remarkable of spectacles. Imagine a
huge circus with an arena raised to the
height of the faces of those standing ,
behind them tier upon tier gradually
rising ; above the arena , which is en
closed with line wire netting , the red-
draped box of the farmer , the leading
Chinaman of Manila , named Palnnca ,
and.a packed audience of1,000 people.
Squatting on the earthen lloor of the
ring inside the wire netting are the
habitues , half Chinese and half Mes-
ti/iiH , while the olllcials walk about the
"jucz de justica , " or referee ; the "sen-
tonciador , " or umpire ; the "casador , "
go-between or betting master , and sev
eral others. Thou two men enter the
ring , each carrying a bird whose spur is
shielded for the moment in a leather
scabbard.
One wears his hat ho is the owner
of the challenging bird , called
"llamndo" the other , hatless , is the
outsider , or "dojado , " who takes up the
challenge. An olllcial calls out the sum
for which the "llamado's" owner backs
it and how much is still lacking to make
tip the sum.
Then comes the most extraordinary
scone of all. The moment the words are
out of his mouth it rains dollars in the
ring. From those inside , from those
who are within throwing distance , ap
parently from everywhere , dollars pour
in , without method , without ownership ,
without a _ bargain , so far as ono can
judge amid the deafening clamor.
When the sums on the'birds are equal
the betting master shouts "Cassada ! "
"matched , " literally "married" the
farmer from his box on high yells
"Largal" "loose them , " and the fight
begins. Somcstimes it lasts ton minutes ,
sometimes only a second , the first shock
leaving ono bird a mangled corpse. No
use to ilo-icribo it every ono knows how
a game cock fights and that it is the
very gamcst and pluckiest thing that
lives.
ngiit over , tno betting master goes
around handing money back recklessly ,
so it seems , to anybody who holds out a
hand. Each one asks for or takes the
sum which belongs to him. But if any
body should put out his hand for anoth
er's money ? That is never done , and if
anybody wcto detected doing so ho would
probably havoa do/en knives in his body
on tlio spot.
In the course of the afternoon I wit
nessed lOo cock lights , writes Henry
Norman to tlio Washington Star. The
authorities make a largo revenue from
the cock pit. For this and ono other
Senor Palanca pays $08,000 a year , and
there are live other farmers. As I said
it is the chief interest of the people , nnd
their frantic excitement tells how deep
the interest is.
WHAT AX INIUAN CAN STAND.
The Heroic Treatment Used with a
iralt-Krozcn Ited Man.
To show what an Indian can stand
when ho has to , says a writer in tlio De
troit Free Press , I may toll of an inci
dent which happened during the winter
I was with them. Toward evening on a
very cold winter day when it was snow
ing just a little and drifting a great
deal , an Indian came to the log house
with a jug half full of whisky and with
his rifle. I imagine that the jug had
been entirely full of whisky when lie
started and by the time ho got to the
house ho was in rather a jolly condition.
The jug and the rlllo wore taken away
from him nnd ho was ordered to get to
his wigwam as quick as ho could before
darkness cnmo on. Ho loft and was sup
posed to have gene to the camp , but
early next morning his squaw appeared
at the house and said ho had not come
homo that night , and as the night was
very cold she had been anxious about
him. Then the bearch for the lost In
dian began.
lie was found in onft of the sheds near
the barn under a heap of drifted snow ,
nnd the chances are that the snow that
wns above him had helped to save him.
The sachors for the Indian had gene in
different directions , and it was his own
squaw who , with true Indian instinct
h id tracked him out , and she was alone
when she found him. Apparently the
Indian was a frozen corpse. She
tumbled him out of his snow
bank and pulled oil his blankets
nnd dragged him down to the
creek , where a deep liolo was cut in the
ice for the purpose of watering the cat
tle. Laying tlio Indian out on the snow ,
she took the pan that was bcsido the ice
hole and , tilling it , repeatedly dashed
pailful after pailful of ice water over the
body of the Indian. Hy the time the
other mitiuccotisful toirehors had re
turned she had her old man thawed out
and seated by the flro wrapped up in
blankets. There is no question that if
he hud been taken into the Ijouso frozen
as ho was ho would huvo died.

A large , fashionable and highly apprecia
tive audience witnessed the first presentation
of Gilbert & Sullivan's new opera in this
city nt Boyd's last night. Everybody pro
nounced "The Gondoliers" n tuneful nnd
merry production. The chorus music Is par
ticularly pleasing , and by Mr. Henderson's
Chicago company , well sung. Several num
bers were heartily applauded nnd encored.
The solos , duets , trios nnd quartettes failed ,
however , to arouse any great amount of en
thusiasm. They were lively enough but not
catchy. The dialogue is bright and witty.
Act ono takes place In the Pinzctta
at Venice and opens with n
chorus of pretty , pleasant women.
Thereafter It Is revealed that Casllda , daugh
ter of Duke Plaza Toro , a grandee of Spain ,
was married In her Infancy to the baby king
of Baratarla. About that time he got mixed
up with the son of his nurse so badly that
for years no one know one from the other , It
was supposed that ono of two gondoliers ,
Marco Palmicrio and Guiseppo Palmlerie.
wns the monarch. They are Introduced
to Gioncttn and Tessa , maidens whom they
lovq and marry. Being informed that one or
the other is king , both assume the throne In
the second act until the old nurse unravels
the mystery. It finally turns out that neither
has any claims , but Louis , attendant to Duke
Tom , whom Casilda bus long loved , Is the
real klntr. Marco and Guiscppe
then return Joyfully to their av
ocations ns gondoliers. In these
two very humorous characters Charles Drew
and W. II. Fitzgerald were greatly admired.
Mr. Drew has a fat part and plays it well.
He seems to bo either in liner voice or the
music suits him better than anything ho has
done of late years. The success of this clever
pair was shared by Miss Louise Montague
and Miss Louise Paulin whoasGlannctta und
Tessa were in nearly nil their scenes.
Miss Montague attracted special attention
and much comment for the gay and spirited
manner in which she entered Into the per
formance. Noticeable improvement has also
been made in her voice since she was last
heard here. W. S. Daboll as the Duke of
Plaza Toro , Joseph Frnnkan as Don Alham-
bni , Miss ' Fannie Edwards ns the
Duchess of Pluxu Toro , and Miss Jeanette St.
Henry as Casllda , were likewise warmly re
ceived. The opera is handsomely staged nnd
prettily costumed. As a whole it will com
pare favorably with any of Gilbert & Sulli'
van's former productions.

The Kansas City , Beatrice , AVyandotte &
Northwestern railroad Is in trouble. The
road , or a portion of it , has been in opera
tion about ono year , doing what has been
supposed to bo a profitable business. Before
the completion of the line a loan from the
Now York Security and Trust company was
negotiated , und forlV time till went well.
A short time ago the Interest on the bonds

The Sentimental AIIKCP of ( he French
DniiKcroitH to Pence ,
P.utts , May 17. In nn interview recently
had with him by Do Soiua , French Journalist ,
Bismarck said the danger nhcnd lay in the
sentimental anger of the French over the loss
of Alsace-Lorraine. Supposing Franca and
Kussla crushed Germany , ho said , who would
bo the gainer ? Kussla would certainly
then devour France. Germany was
the bulwark of western Europe against Kus-
slan Invasion.
Talking with Correspondent Novoo Vcr-
cinya of St. Petersburg , the ex-chancellor
declared that the Austrian empire was not so
near decay as the people Imagined. Ger
many needs Austria for the same rea
son that Kussin needs France. A witr
between Germany and Kussla would bo a
great mistake , but was for many reasons al
most impossible. A labor conference was
blowing in the air. The discontent of the capi
talists was much more dangerous than tlio
discontent of the workmen.

yielded up chocks on both the First National
and the United States National banks of this
city , all signed by "F. Metz Brothers , " nnd
payable to various parties. After being ar
rested lie stated that ho was n Sidney doctor
and accounted for the Metz signature by stat
ing that his stepfather enjoys the distinction
of not only being named Metz , but of being a
wealthy ranch owner.

SUNLIGHT A TONIC.
Disease Lurku in Darkness People
Llko PlantN.
Sunlight being indispensable to the
preservation of tlio health , it is none the
less indispensable to the sick in order to
regain their health. Exclusion of sun
light from the sick-room , unless it is
imperatively necessary , is very unwise. |
The sick room should always bo so I
located that the sun will shine Into it as
many hours daily as possible.
A good illustration of the injurious
effects on the sick of deprivation of sun
light is given by Dr. Hammond in his
treatise on hygiene. Ho says :
"I shall never forgot the appearance
presented by the sick of a regiment I
inspected In Western Virginia. They
wore crowded into a small room , from
which the light was shut out by blinds
of India-rubber cloth , Palo and ox-
sanguined , ghostlike-looking forms ,
they scarcely seemed mortal. Conva
lescence was almost impossible , and
doubtless many of them died who , had
they bton subject to the simplest laws of
nature , would have recovered. "
In convalescence from almost all dis
eases sunlight nets , unless too intense
or too long continued , as a most health
ful stimulus both to the nervous and
physical systems , Tlio evil effects of
Keeping such invalids in obscurity are

The delirium and wonknoss which nro

mnglo when the rays of tlio sun nro
allowed to enter the chamber. Wounds
heal with greater rapidity whoa light
is allowed to reach them than when
they are kept continually covered.
Kiioiigli instances of the hunollcinl
ofTccts of sunlight have been given , it Is
hoped , to Induce people to open their
blinds and let the light into their houses :
oven if it docs fade the carpols , it wil 1
brighten the cheeks of the inmates and
gladden their hearts.
