Hot Car * for ItiiKKaitc Kooin * .
Four of the largest sized furniture cars of
the Union raciflc-Northwcatcrn line have
been pressed Into service at the Union depot
In this city us additional baggage rooms.
They are cars thirty-six feet long and with
a capacity of 60,000 pounds. They can hold
n couple of hundred trunks , but only about
100 trunks are now being loaded Into each
car. The trunks are not piled up more lhan
four or five deep , as they are uanted too fre
quently and have to bo kept as handy as
possible.
The Increase In the amount of baggage
handled at the Union depot during the last
two weeks has been something without
precedent In this city. The rapid way In
which baggage would accumulate was a puz
zler to Depot Master Honey. During the
clear , warm weather ho solved the problem
all right by piling up the baggage on the
platform , nnd having a guard watch It night
and day. Hut when the rain came along this
plan had to bo abandoned Several ways of
taking care of the baggage left over after
the regular baggage room was filled were
thought of , and U was finally decided to
bring In some big furniture cars. They are
found to answer the purpose for which they
are Intended very well , and more freight
cars will bo run In on the siding back of the
epot as the excess baggage Increases ,
finish of the Old Depotx.
"Do you know that a funny finish seems
o await the old depots ? " inquired one of
ho truck pushers nt the Union depot : of a
lee repot tcr jcsterday. The latter admitted
hat ho did not know , and then the boss
f the station went on to remark : "Tho
Id Union depot' , vou know , was torn down
when the Uurllngton moved Into Its new
station. Well , the old timber that used
to hold that frame shed together was sold ,
and some of It got Into the hands of a Junk
dealer up nt Fourteenth nnd Cass streets.
There was a flic ono night Fast summer ,
nnd what do you suppose It wan9 That old
pile of Union depot lumber. While It was
down hero It never would burn , but ns soou
as It was carted away , up It went In smoke.
"Last Sunday morning the announcement
of the new Union depot to be built ) down
hero was madu. On that same afternoon
along came a thunder storm , and the llght-
ilng struck one of the small frame houses
n the ground on which the Union depot
s to bo built. What I'm wonderln' about
low Is whether a fornado will come along
and carry this depot away when the new
ono Is built. "

or to a Hotel at < io\ern-
inent'n I2\iien e.
Fifty-four convalescent soldiers of the
Third Nebraska Volunteer Infantry arrived
In the city yesterday afternoon shortly
after 4 o'clock. They ore on a sick fur
lough of thirty days and left their icgl-
mcnt nt Jacksonville , Tla. , on Wednesday
evening. Only two of the number were 111
enough to bo sent to the hospital , and
neither of their cases Is regarded ns serious.
All of the soldiers wcro able to walk from
the train to the station , nnd though several
of them are somewhat weak from malarial
fever , none of them appear to bo suffering
greatly. As many as could left for their
homes out In the state on the afternoon and
evening trains , and I'm remainder were
cither taken In tow by friends hero or sent
to a hotel by the army officers.
The rain had just stopped falling and the
sun was trying to break through the clouds
when the Uurllngton train from the east
with the sick soldiers aboard pulled into
the now station. "Hero they come ! " cried
a pretty little girl , with the crossed rifles
of the Third on her hatband , and thu crowd
pushed forward to see for Itself. Those
who had pictures lu their minds' eye ot
crippled soldiers and gaunt forms on
stretchers were surprised lo BOO all but
two or three of the boys Jump off the train
before It had barely come to a stop and be
gin to greet their friends and relatives.
"This Nebraska air makes mo feel good al
ready. Just take a whiff of It , John ; It 11
do you good , " saW ono soldier to another ,
as ho hurried up to catch the next train for
Hastings. Tor the next quarter of an hour
the sick soldiers were running about checkIng -
Ing their baggage , getting their transporta
tion to go homo and calling out , "So long ! "
to their comrades for the rest of the fur
lough.
Ambulance * Co Avtay I2ni | > ty.
The long line of army carriages nnd am
bulances in waiting at the entrance of the
station proved chiefly ornamental , but that
they were there showed that the army offi
cers are taking good care of the sick. Only
two of the carriages wcro used , and the
ambulances were sent nway empty. Captain
Ua\ler , acting quartermaster of the Depart
ment of the Missouri , with Terreuco Ja- !
houey and several other assistants from the
department , were on hand. So was Dr.
Koerpcr nnd a couple of assistants. Adjutant
General Uarry of the former National Guard
of the state was thero. Every soldier vv'ic
was Hick was given a chance to go to the
St. Joseph or Clarkson hospital It ho do-
birod , and all who felt weak wcro offered
carriages , but the bulk of the men did not
care for any such attention. "Don't you
want a cuirlngo to drive you up to the ho
tel ? " said ono of the army oftlceis to a
tall boy who looked a bit weak. The soldier
gu\a : v negative shako of his iiead , and tlic
two girls who were with him spoke up to
say , almost in unison : "Now , you Just
please leave him to us. Wo'iei going to
take him up to Aunt Mary's , nnd we'll get
along all right. " Several fathers and more
mothers were there to claim their boys , and
they would think of letting no ono but them
selves pay any attention to the branch of
the volunteer army nearest to them.
Hosier of the .Hen.
Devvey Shaw of Company II , living at Os-
ccola , Neb. , and John Hanson of Company
G , whoso home Is at Oakland , Nob. , were
the two soldiers sent to the St. Joseph hos
pital. Doth have malarial fever. Shaw was
the weakest man lu the detachment. Han
son Is not very sick and will probably leave
for his homo today. Dr. Koerper thought
It best for him to stay over night at the
hospital. The men who could not catcli
trains for their homes last evening were
sent to the Park hotel by the army offi
cers to stay until they could start for home ,
The following is a list of th so men :

There wcro seventy-seven members ol

at their homes en route to Omaha aue
fifty-four came into the city. Of those wh (
left the train before It arrived hero only

soldiers to Omaha. Ho will spend a tov
days at his home before going back ti

said : "The general health of the men a
Jacksonville cannot bo said to be bad. Whei
we left there on Wednesday there wen
ninety cases of sickness In the division bos

there are a considerable number who cither
have no imperative homo tits or prefer to
delay their hotncgoing until they are finally

be subject In a measure to camp discipline ,
but will have a considerable amount of
time to themselves. TUP detail Is being

with the dcsiics of the soldiers , and it
will probably bo necessary to detain no

The company quarters were made com
fortable jcstcrday by the addition of heavy
bo\ stoves to each barracks room. They
wcio supplied by Acting Quartermaster
Baxter and add greatly to the comfoit of

the reception of a railroad tie if necessary
and are good heaters.

of Some Unknown Brute ,
CHILD FOUND IN SARPY COUNTV
Dccojeil from Her Home , Terrllilj
Maltreated anil Then Abandoned
la the Wood * li > Her In
human ANtallant.
Ten-year-old Hrnma Christiansen , whc
was kidnaped Friday evening by a stranger
In a phaeton whllo she was playing with
several children near her homo , 809 Pacific
street , was found yesterday at Albright ,
a suburb of South Omaha. The child was
wandering about In the rain and wind.
She was crjlng bitterly and was in n
pitiful condition. An examination showed
that bho had been brutally assaulted. Her
Injuries , however , were not serious. The
stranger who found her put her nboard an
Albright car and sent her to the police
station In charge of the conductor. Tht
police notified the child's parents and her
father hurried to South Omaha.
At noon the father , accompanied by twc
officers nnd the child , started for Albright.
The child wns taken to point out the route
she took Friday night in company with her
abductor. It is the hope of the police that
she may bo able to develop some definite
clew that will enable them to capture the
man , who Is believed to reside In that sec
tion.
Story Tolil by the Child.
The child's story is that she wns coaxed
Into taking a ride with the stranger on his
promise to give her money and a pony. At
Sebek's saloon he got a glass of soda water
. for her and she thinks ho put something
in It , as It tasted queer and made her head
bwim. After they had been riding for some
time she sajs she began to cry and the
man gave her a dollar. After passing
through South Omaha oho says the man
drove Into the tall weeds near the road
and accomplished his purpose. Ho then
forced her to get Into the phaeton and they
drove on until n house with a bright light
in the window was seen. Driving up to the
gate , the child says the stranger told her
o get out nnd go to the house nnd nsk
If she could stay nil night. She did so , she
says , nnd was taken In. The stranger , nftci
she had alighted , got out of the phaeton ,
took the dollar ho had given her awoj
from her nnd nfter striking the
horse with the whip , disappeared In thi
darkness. The child was unable to tel
wheio the house she remained over nigh
is situated or The name of the family win
occupied it. She was also unable to tel
what part of the county she was In. Sh
sa > s the stranger was very kind to he
during her long Tide.
Last cvenlne detectives who accompanied
the child to Albrlcht returned. They were
not successful In getting nny clews ns U
the abductor's whereabouts , but located th <
house In which the child opent Frldaj
night. It Is the house of Harry Harris , am
is situated at the southern extremity o ;
Thirteenth street in Sarpy county The Har
ris people saw the man nnd the child drive
by the house , going south , at G o'clock.
At C o'clock the horse , dragging the cmptj
phaeton , walked Into the doorynrd , and ni
hour later the child , crying and bedraggled
applied for a place to sleep. The farmers
In the vicinity lu which the assault was
committed ore much excited. Boysen's
horse and phaeton are still at the Harris
house.
I'olloe Show Great Aetlvlty.
Not slnco the murder of Maud Rubel hav
the police shown as much activity as the ;
are showing In this case. Last night tei
detectives were put to work on the case am
this morning all the available men at ham
wcro set to work on it , but nothing wa
developed save the fact that Lloutenau
Thomas Ruano of the engine house at Kiev
cnth and Dorcas streets reported that he hai
seen a phaeton containing a child and a ma :
such as described as her abductor pass thi
corner ot Eleventh and Bancroft streets a
9:30 : last night going south. His attcntloi
was nttracted to the two , he said , becausi
the child was crying. U Is the belief o
Mrs. Christiansen that the abductor of hei
child drugged her before ho placed her < i
the buggy. The drug was administered I
the child , she believes , In a glass of sod ;
water he purchased for her at the saloon o
Charles Sebek , Ulghth and Pacific streets
Mr. Sebek , who Is the only one In the neigh
borhood who saw the man , says he cami
Into tbo saloon and asked for a glass o
i lemonade. Ho was told there was no suga :
In the saloon , and said : "Oh , well , sod :
'
water will do , then. " He poured the con
| tents of a soda bottle Into a glass and tool
It to tbo back door , where the child va
waiting for him. Ho returned the glass am
went nway. Mr. Sebek did not see him ge
Into the phaeton.
The stranger U described as bcln ? nbou
2S years old , well dressed In black clothlni
and being ot very dark complexion. A heav ;
dark mustache adorned his face. Ho waul
weigh about ICO pounds. Mr. Sebek says h
thinks tbo man an American. Ho was no
drunk , nor did ho act like an Insane man.
Karller In the evening a man supposed t
have been the kidnaper was seen in the sa
loon at Seventh and Pacific streets , but non
I saw him tatto liquor Ho appeared uncas ;
I and was evidently waiting for some one.

TESTIMONY AGAINST ADAIR
K of the Aliened Companion of
Hey Home , ( be Dead
Is Still In 1'roKrenM.
The hearltiB of Lowell Adalr , alleged to
have been the companion of Hey llorno ,
the > OUHK burglar who was shot nnd killed
by Druggist Samuel II. Karnswoith while
In the act of robbing his store and who It
is alleged took n sensational plunge to lib
erty through a plato glass window , was con
tinued in police court yesterday to Monday
nt 1 o'clock. The hearing had been contin
ued from Friday afternoon until yesterday
and this second continuance was granted to
enable the state to produce two additional
w Itnesses.
Hut two witnesses were heard yesterday ,
they being Police Officer William White and
J. II. Williams , a boarder nt thu house of
Adair's mother-in-law , ' Mrs. J. Depevv.
Adalr nnd his wlfo also lived at this house.
Olllcer White's testimony overthrows
joung Adair's denial of having been wither
or of having seen llorno on the night of the
robbery. Whlto swore that nt 12 lu , an
hour before the commission of the robbery ,
ho saw young Adalr und llorno walking on
Nineteenth street near Cumlng. Adair , ho
says , were u Binall , round , red , soft hat at
the time. Such a hat was left In the htoio
by the burglar who escaped. White is well
acquainted with Adalr and could not be
mistaken In his identity.
At a little after 1 o'clock on the night nt
the robbery Witness Williams testified that
ho was awakened by a loud noise. To learn
what the cause of the disturbance was ho
said h < i was forced to pass through Adair s
bedroom. Aduir was not lu his bed , nor hud
ho been there. Ho was not there In the
morning when Williams arobe. That same
evening nt 10 o'clock , when ho retired , he
sttoru IKI saw Homo and Adalr Kitting on the
steps of the kitchen door talking to each
other.
Kvery circumstance brought out yesterday
and at the hearing Triday connects Adair
with the crime. Ucsldes the d > lng confes
sion of Home , that his companion In the
robbery was his cousin , Lowell Adalr ; the
red hat , which It has been proven bclongtd
to Adalr , and tbo long Iron bar found hid
den In the back yard at. Adair's house , und
which It has been proven was used to pry
open the rear window of rarnsworth'a store ,
are two very strong links In the chain of
circumstantial evidence that is being forged
about young Adair.
