When a man rotlroi from a high position
-to which ho bis been elevated by his follow
citizens , It must bo with aomo regrets that
ho stop ) down to again mlnttla with tbo
hurrying crowd. But In stopping Into the
I'tttiljS dgaln it mint fill tbo man's heart with
Rood feeling and Joy to know that ho is
Jdndly romumborod by these over whom ho
ham provided and with whom bo has asso
ciated.
Of nil the men In Omnhn who fully roallzo
this fact Hon. George W. Doano , who re-
ntgncd his position upon the district bench a
few days ago , probably this morning stand ?
wltnout n poor.
Thomombci'3 of the bar ot Douglas county
had planned u ploaiant surprUo for.luigo
Doano nnd yeslerJny nfturnoon ho was in
vited to a bar meeting In the largo court
room in the court house , being told that the
lawyers of Omaha wanted to welcome him
bade to the legal fold.
It was nearly ; i o'clock when Jtidga Bald
win nroso nnd , looking over the room , which
contained 3)3 ) gentlemen who earn their
daily bread by preaching the doctrines laid
down by lilncicstono , said that It was not
necessary to slate the object of the meeting ,
as it was known that thu gentlemen bad
gathered to pay their rospoets to Juduo
Uonno. That the montlng might proceed in
duo and legal form It was necessary to have
n presiding oftlcer , nnd for that position he
would nominate ( ion. J. M. Woolwort'i. '
Mr. Woolworth's nomination was made
unanimous and upon inking the uhnlr he
cold that ho appreciated the honor conferred
upon him. It would bo u very dull nature
that would not bo moved by pleasure when
called upon to prcsido uvor iho deliberation !
of n boay of men who had cnthored to naj
bomneo to n gentleman who for moro than n
generation had resided in the community !
who had presided with success in the suat ol
Justlco and who had wnn the ostecsm of thosi
with whom ho had associated. Judge Doano
Mr. Woolworth said , had for u long tinii
been of service to the bar , Doth as n practi
tloner and a judge upon tbo bench , and I
had always been his good fortune to bo i
loader , gathering about him a cltontngc
Which It must have been nn honor to have
had. "Now , gontloinrn , what Is your pleas
ure ! " Mr. Woolwnrih asked.
W. D. McIIugh nominated E. W. Slmera
for the potitioc of secretary.
"For thu purpose of having n basis foi
action , " said Judge Wakoloy , " 1 move you
Mr. President , thut a committee of llvo bi
appointed to uraft n memorial touching upot
tlio resignation ot Judge Doauc. "

Thd motion prevailed and the followmi
named gentlemen were appointed uuon ihi
committee : Judge Wnkuloy , Judge Bahl

W. D. Mellugh. The gentlemen retired ti

Vor a moment Judco Doa-io wns uunblo to
respond , but. il was for only a moment , and ,
in a voice in whlun there was n slight tremor ,
husaid :
"Tho years that I have spent upon the
bench have been the most pleasant of mv
llto , aud In passing upon iho cases that hnvo
been before me the only roercts that 1 hnvo
hud , have been that there were not two sides
to thu cases. This there could not bo , nnd
at time1) my decision * hava caused mo great
pain nnd embarrassment , hut God being my
witness , I can recall no Instance where I
have boon Influenced by personal consider
ations. 1 have tdwnvs i'ivon the law ns re
quired by my oath of cilice , aud if I bnvo
failed , It has been a mistake ot Iho bead nnd
not of tbo heart. "
The judge said that sometimes ho had
been very stringent nnd had held the lawyer
to tha line , but In doing su ho full that he
was always doing it for their good. When
ho wuut upon ttu ootich the lawyers ot
Omaha were always wanting to continue
their ernes , thus patting them over
Irom term to term ; even tlio necessity of
doing a little marketing was a good excuse
for asking for n continuance. Ho could remember -
member years nuo when Judgu Lane was
upon the Pencil and the honor.ihlo chairman
wanted a coutmuanco in a cnso which ho
was trying. \\oolworth , ho said , asked
for the contintianco on thegiound that it
was Good Friday. Judge Like not lolng as
good n churchman ns iho lawyer , refused ,
whereupon Mr. Woolworth wont out of
court declaring that there were but ixvo
Judges who over held court on Good Fridav.
Ono was Pontius Piluio and Iho other was
Judno Lake.
Tlio Judge anld that ho might enter Iho
ranks of the practicing attorneys azaiu , but
thai would ( icoond upon circumstances ; if
he did ho would ba with the boys , asking for
a sluiro of the business. Tbo gift from the
bar ho prlied , nol for its intrinslo value , but
from tbo source fro u whichItcamo and witb
the Tplrli with which 11 wus given ,
Oilier Imminent Speakers.
Chairman Woolworth said that if Judge
Doano had remained upon the bench , it was
probable that the Good Friday story would
never been told.
Judge Baldwin spoke at some longtb , toll'
in ? of the courts ot Iho early days in Omaha.
Judge Irvine , in behalf of ihc bench , said
Ihut for once ho foil free lo say u few words
to Judge Donne. His career bad reflected
great credit to the bench , as well as to the
bar ; the younger memoirs ot the bench hud
always looked to him for ndvico ; they bail
sought thu judgment of his mature years aiu
had profited thoroby. His steps had beet
straightforward ; he had lived honestly one
bad never iniondod to injure any ono , rich 01
poor , high or low. Spcaitlng for the othoi
judges hu said that the memorial and thi
resolutions would bo ordered spread at
length upon the court Journal.

usR CITV , U. T , , Oct , ' 'I. Ono of
the mnny historic structures In Salt LittoCity
thnt nro overflowing with hnlt-tortoUo'i
talcs of early adventure und rotnnnco , is to
bo torn down soon. The building to bo
crowded out of existence by tho. march of
progress Is the UontiurntM hotel. It Is the
oldest hostelry in the territory , and during
the exodus to California in ISI'.l It shattered
tiinuy travel-stained but expectant pilgrims
ourouto to tbo land of gold , When Artomus
Ward , the great humorist , came out bora
shortly before the war , ho accepted the
somewhat limited hospitalities of the place
and was made tu honored guost. It was
there that ho mot Drighnm Young , nud con
ceived the Idea of writing the story nbouttho
many abuses hcnpod upon poor llrlglmm by
his numerous wives ; how they used to conceal X ,
thoniM'lvcs in bushes when their llego lord
was buttling in Great Salt Inko and steal his
clothes , "thereby compelling him to go homo
by n circooltous rout , iinmcd In thu skinnier-
lus form of a Oroak slalv , " r.s Artomus ex
pressed it.
The llrst proprietor of the Continental was
Jim TownsonU. Shortly nfuir the arrival ot
the Mormons it. this territory Brlghaiu
Young ordered Towuscnd un u mission and
Ferry Little came Into possusslnn of the
houso. Two years later Townsand ro turned
lo the city and reported to Brlghnui Young ,
"What shall I do now ! " hu asked his ad
viser.
' Go Into the hotel business , " ropllod the
seer.
"IJut whoroi" inquired Townsnnd.
"Thoro , " said Brlghum , pointing to a ton-
room aJobo that stood ou tlio corner of the
present Continental lot und U a part of thu
building now occupied by the billiard room
ml tbo bur.
Townaond paid the owner $0,000 for the
iroporly aud built ou as nn addition the
iiree-slory portion , nud the nobility of the
own became Iho guc-Us. Governor Sanford
ccuplcd a small room with whitewashed
vails and a culling so low bit could barely
laud straight under it , nnd paid $4 n day
or llioio scanty accommodations. Uinco
hen nJdilions have been mudo lo the build-
ng from Mme to lime , but the dingy npart-
ncius that oucocontained travolora , now long
luce dead , still remain. Tha building Is low
md long , encircled by two verandas. Mill-
jerry and locust trcus almost hldo it fiom
low , and when rolycnmy was In its prime
loary dnncors nt the balls were wont to sit
out beneath iho stars und repent their
Icclarations of love lo tbo coy maidens of
ana Pete valley. Thus was tbo" way paved
o broken hearts and largo families , and the
thrifty landlord waxed wealthy ,
in connection with thu memorable visit of
Artoimis Ward , old Sam Perkins , who died
a few years ago , used to loll an interesting
slory , as Perkins al Hint lime otllciatcd us
clerk. A few years uoforo iho arrival of
Artomus a minor who was returning from
'alllornia with several thousand dollars in
rold dust was murdered while asleep In a
'oo-a ' ill the Continental. Ever after that
: he sunorstilious people by whom this terri
tory used lo ho visited had u sort of horror of
Ltioroam. Though no ouo was willing to admit
lhal he considered the room h LIU tiled It was
very seldom occupied , nud the chambermaid ,
a good old Irish woman , used lo tell of hear
ing groans and moans Al dead of night ns she
was passing by to no to her own room.
On the nlghl of Ward's arrival Iho bouso
was crowded. The Mormon conference was
in session in Iho tabernacle , and , although
many of thu brolhcru ionosid ; on the straw
In the bottom of their wagon boxes , enough
others felt sufficiently wealthy to put up nt
the tavern , ns It was famllarilv known In
these days. The halls oven wcro tilled with
cols , and when \ \ urd , weary and dustv ,
alichtud from the stage out ) inquired for
lodgings the clone heaved u sigh and told
him that every room in the bouse was full.
There was no ether hotel in the village , and
Ward Boomed destined to a tour anioue the
nrlvato residences , whan Perkins remem
bered the little room Under the stnliM in
which the minor wns killed.
"Hold on , stranger , " cnod Perkins , as
Ward was picking up his vallco preparatory
to taking his departure. "You look like a
young man tbatnln't afraid of nothing , and
if you balnl sneered o' ghosts 1 can give you
n room.1
Ward assured the old man that ghosts had
no terrors for him , nnd down the long hull
to the south end of iho building Perkins
showed tno way , talking ull iho luno us If
lolling the unknown guest that If ho never
came out nlivo bis b'ographcr.s ' could not
truthfully charge tlir.t , ho was not warned
in time. When tbo twain arrived at iho
room Perkins warily opened the door , and
Ward stopped In. Ho danced around as If
to satisfy himself that no spooks wore roostIng -
Ing on the bad-posts or concealed lu thu
closets , and then'hu tola iho old man ho
would accept the proffered nccomodatlons.
Thai night Artoraus want around town n
little , nnd it wns notlongucforo his convivial
soul found plenty of companions. About
midnight bo returned with fourorflvo young
sports about ha own age , and as they passed
Ibrough Iho liltlo ofllce to Ward's room It
was noticed that ono of thorn carried a bos
ket , and Perkins imagined ho heard the
clinking of bottles , subsequent events
proved that the old man IIOIUH ! right , for
Artemub and his friends madu n
uiglil of it. The sun wns half
nn hour nbovo llm Wnsatch mountains
in the oasl the next morning when Artomus
bade his friends ndlcu , und Iho bottloi Ihut
had bean broughl in the niahl before were
empty. Nolsn , however , xvlth thu mldnk-ht
rovcllcrs. Tl.oy were gloriously und hilari
ously full.
In th'j afternoon Artomus arose looking"
trillojided. Ills Identity boon bceauio known
and the next night 1m occupiedtho "best
parlor. " But the room vvhoro the miner
WHS murdered has never sluco been referred
to as haunted , Thu cliuinuonnuld never
hears uncnnny sounds \lulo passing by ,
though Homoilmos aim does Imn''iiiu shu
hears fitlut echoes of clinking gluises nnd
peals of laughter. From thai day to Ihls
iho aparlinout has been known as "Ward's
