Only Baturday night InstVilI Fetber , bookkeeper for the Crane-Churchill company , narrowly escaped being driven to Jail In the patrol wagon by an offlcloue patrolman , /bouL 10 o'clock he wa Blending at. the door of a barber shop at. 510 South Thirteenth atreet talking with a friend. A qucatlon regarding - garding the Mormon system of govcrnmntlt had arleen and Mr. Felber had remarked that one of the yirtucs of their organization WM shown in a lack of paupers and poor- liousca. A pasaing policeman appeared to have overheard Mr. Felber and , approach- lng , tapped him on the shoulder. Whether ho miBunderstood the language or aimply entertained an exaggerated aversion to Mor- znonieni i not known , but ho was markedly dIspleased. "You can't talk that way hereon on the street , " cried tim patrolman. Mr. 1elber WaB naturally * surpried and asked what ho meant. The rOW policeman replied that Folber had beow using indecent 'anguage and added hotly ( lint If ho per BiStel In his intemperate speech , ho ( the patrolman ) would run him in. Several persona - sona who had heard the conversation assured - sured the officer that Mr. Felber's words had been entirely proper. The patrolman stIll held his position and Mr. Father Indignantly - nantly remonstrated. The policeman thereupon - upon seIzed him roughly by the shoulder and would have taken him to the patrol box had not tim surrounding crowd Inter- fered. /tflOllLCr tggravnle.l CaMe. An equally unpleasant experience was met with a few nights ago by George Molinor , Anton Armatroug and Elmer Wolfe , who suffered from the Ignorance and drunkenness - ness of two of the police board's political proteges. They \vero on their way , shortly after midnight , to ltobcrts livery barn , near Twenty-second and rierco streets. where they are employed. As they walked west on Leavenworth street It occurred to them that , the saloon t Twenty-fourth street had celebrated an opening during the day and might be able to servo them with a parting accommodation for the night. Finding the door locked they knocked for admittance , whereupon two policemen , who had evidently been in on the opening , came out. The young men smiled at the officers' noticeable condition and the latter , taking offense , placed them under nrest. They conducted the prlsoner to Twentieth and Pierce streets , nearly a mile distant , and sUmmoned thu patrol wagon. On the way one of the young men states that. the po- . Ilceinan In charge offered to try a wrestling match and he had considerable difficulty in avoiding tile encounter. 'When the prisoners told their story to the night captain at the station they were so evidently Innocent of any Offense that the captain was unwilling to lock them up. He sent the wagon back to bring in the arrestIng - Ing officers , hut the driver was only able to find one nnd after inquiring further the captain sent the young men home. still another victim of reform police ignorance - norance and poor judgment was a woman known to ba respectable and well connected - nected who was on her way home on Saturday - urday afternoon. She bad reached the corner - nor of Sixteenth and Capitol avenue , when stopped by a new policeman , apparently struck by her resemblance to some one else , Acting on his suspicion he demanded of the woman an account of herself. Too startled to reply readily , she was unceremoniously - moniously placed under arrest , The policeman - man rudely informed her that she was ovordrcssed and was without doubt a crim- thai. The woman nttempted to reveal her identity to the zealous officer , but in her excitement failed to be convincing and was only saved from a trip in the patrol wagon by tile thtcrferncc of a passerby , who made the officer ace his mistake.

Owing to thq fact .that the right of the present board to enter into contractswith , a superintendent and teachers had been questioned by the members-elect and others , a lengthy opinion from J. II. VanDuson , the board's attorney , was read before any action was taken. In both the questions Involved the attorney held that the. present board had the right and the powe to make contracts - tracts for the retention of persons now in the employ of the board. As for a superintendent - intendent the attbrney's opinion was to the effect that the board could enterinto a contract - tract with an applicant for the position for a period not to exceed three years. . The committee on teachers then offered a report recommending that Prof. Munro be re-elected for a term of two years and all members voted for the adoption of the re- port. Then ballots were prepared and a list. of other candidates read. On the formal vote Pro. Munro received five votes , H. C. Clarcndon , three , and one member voting "No. " President Lott declared Superintend- exit Munro lectOl. The question of teachers to be retained was then taken up and the committee reported - ported in favor of the list printed above. flallots were prepared and the election fol- lowod. It is understood that all of the teachers other than those named will be chosen by the new board. Miss Lulu Bell announced her intention of giving up teaching and her resignation was accepted. W. J.

Robbers' ilooNt Stunning Opeit. OMAHA , June 4 , 1893.-To the Editor bf The Bee : As I told you inmy letter of a few days ago the Robbers' Roost in the front part of Allen's blacksmIth shop on North Sixteenth street opened up its doors for business the day thc'expo3ttion opened up. They have nine cappers to assist in the game , some of them dressed up as fnrniers , clerks , etc. , but a person of cx- ' perience in public can easily detect the knavery In their brazen faces. Thiero is displayed a. large license frcm the city , and I suppose they have ample lollco prott'o. tiDO. They roped in $5'I' ) on hact Wednesday - day from the suckers and 't never was known tEat an outsldr not a cent in win flhtirs. In fact , these fehlors arc so desperate - ate thieves that they won't let an outsider wia even Once. They arc a cunning lot and can work the strangers to a finish. The writer has visited nih the principal cities in America and iiever yet saw auhi an out- reeoiis fraud allowed to go on unmoheatgd by the authorities. Thorn is no use In reporting - porting the place to the police , as they have been told dozens of times about it. There- fore. for tile ealco of the unwary who may not know the kind of a den this is , kindly warn them tlirought The lice. which Is the cniy medium In Omaha through which thieves and thugs will be exppsed.
