ADMIRAL SCIILEY RETURNS His Western Trip Haa Been Ono Continual Bound of Ovationsi' ENTHUSIASTIC OViR WESTERN RECEPTIONS Itnynl Arrniiiun I"nprnlnril ( ( Hie Tdiulinl In Itojnl .Style l.nnt UvcnltiK n ( UK * .Mi'tr > | ioll < nn Chill llnllilliiK. After n seven dayo' aliscncc. during which ' ho swung around a wide circle of western cllltfl and received an enthusiastic greeting from the people of half a dozen states , Hear Admiral Schley returned to Omaha yester day , and last night he and Mrs. Buhley wcro guests of honor at the reception tendered them by Union Pacific council No. 1063 of the Hoyal Arcanum at the Metropolitan club. Preceding the affair at the club the adfnlral witnessed the flrft part of the per formance at the CrclRhton-Orphoum theater. The ppeclal train that carried the party arrived at the Union Pacific depot at 1230 ; o'clock. U was schedultd an hour earlier , but Its progress had been Impeded by the ovations that were Incidental to every slop. Not withstanding the delay , however , there was a crowd of several hundred people on the platform and when the train pulled In they expressed their enthusiasm In a cheer of welcome. The special train consisted of three cars , drawn by engine 824 , handsomely decorated with flags and bunting. About the pilot fluttered an admiral's flag and this was a euro-enough emblem , for It swung from the masthead of the "Norfolk , " during the Santiago campaign. In the head car was a magnificent floral reproduction of the "Brooklyn , " presented to the admiral by the people of Salt Lake City In place of the one which the admiral received at Council Bluffs , nnd which was left on Pike's Peak. The party left the train Immediately. It consisted of Admiral and Mrs. Schley. Gen eral and Mrs. Mnnderson , a maid and sten ographer and General Manager Dickinson and General Passenger Agent Ixjmax of the Union Pncino , who met the train at Fre mont. President II. 0. Burl was also at the deprt to greet the arrivals nnd assist in es corting them to the carriage walling at the ether aide of the depot. Both the admiral and General Manderson were enthusiastic over their trip nnd they declared that they had pnjoyod every foot of It. The general said that Admiral Schloy was received with the greatest en thusiasm at every point along the route and this was supplemented by General Manager r- Dickinson , who asserted that the entire trip wab one continual ovation. The crowd at the depot followed the ad miral to the carriage , which was about to leave at one" but was stopped by the des perate appeal of a photographer who wanted a chnnce for a snap ehot. He was accom modated and then the party was driven to the Manderson residence for lunch. The Avcnituni Itecepdnii. Tlio reception tendered to Admiral and Mre. Schley at the Metropolitan club last night was one of the largest and moat enJoyable - Joyablo of the social functions that have marked their visit to Omaha. The members of the Royal Arcanum councils of Omaha , South Omaha and Council Bluffs participated In the affair , at the Invitation of Union Pacific council , which had charge ot the arrangements. The spacious club house was completely filled with the gueste , nnd since the Hoyal Arcanum people were disap pointed In their plans to entertain the ad miral during his previous visit , they con soled themselves for the delay by making his reception n most elaborate affair. The club rooms were magnificently .decorated with flowers and patriotic colors , and from 9 o'clock until well toward midnight the rooms were crowded with members of the order nnd their wives nnd sweethearts. The entire committee of Union Pacific council met the admiral and party at the Crclghton theater , where they saw the first part of the performance and at 0 o'clock they proceeded to the club rooms , where they received a hearty greeting from the crowd that already packed the building. The receiving party was stationed In the reception room Immediately adjoining the entrance. It consisted of Admiral and Mrs. Schley , General and Mrs. .Manderson nnd Rev. and Mrs. T. J. iMackay. They stood In front of a magnificent bower of patriotic emblems , rosen nnd smllax. For forty minutes the guests passed them In rapid procession. After they had been Introduced to the admiral and the other members of his party they passed on to the dining room , where light refreshments were nerved , and thence upstairs to the ball room. Gold 1'ln for Hie Adiiilrnl. After the entire company had been cor dially greeted by the guests of honor the latter wore conducted to the rofroshmenl room and a short time later to the ball room , where the other guests had already assembled to glvo them another ovation. The orchestra struck up the "Star Spanglei Banner" and the ofllclal party passed to the center of the room , where they were stopped by members of the committee who had prepared another and unexpected fea ture. With a short but very appropriate ad dress Fred J. Sackctt presented Admlra Schley with a handsome solid gold regent's pin , which ho asked him to accept as a memento of his visit In Omaha and In token of the esteem of the monitors of Union Pa- clflo council. This was followed by another furious handclapplng and the admiral grace fully expressed his appreciation of the ouvonlr. Ho said : My brother nnd my brethren , or my broth ers , I might add : My Interest In the Royal Arcanum has been great for a number of years. I have had the pleasure of presid ing for over six year ? as itio regent of the council known as Farragut council No. CCO , ABSOLUTE SECURITY. Genuine Carter's Little Liver Pills.

LIES UNCONSCIOUS AT THE HOSPITAL 111 * Afttnllnnlft Arc Hurrying Awny from Oiitnlm In ttrtpiuie uf ( lie Inu Ilrntilt of u C'uril Gnmci In ono of the wards of Clnrkson hospital several nurses and physicians hnvo worked for hours to bring a man back to con- clousnes * nnil life. Ho la suffering from concUBslon of the brain caused by the blow of a billiard cue and there is little hope , for his recovery. Somewhere In the state , a day's Jowl.ioy by carriage from the city , three men arc driving as rapidly as tired horses can I travel. They have n light wagon , canvas | covered , and four fast horses which arc . used In relays of two to Insure speed. It j was ono of thcso men who wielded the billiard cue that ( fractured the hospital pa tient's skull. His name Is James Jones. His companions | are a brother. Tom , and an associate In ( business , Peter Grecta. They have twelve hours' start on the police , but Captain Donahuo has notified the officers In every town within a fifty-mile radius to bo on the lookout for them and It Is unlikely that they will escape capture. Tlic Victim. The man who Iks In the hospital at the point of death Is Charles Kelly. Unless I ho should happen to recover , the refugees I will bo held on the charge of murder. I The fight between Jones and Kelly that " , resulted "in the UBO of the billiard cue as a 1 weapon took place Tuesday night In Peter son's saloon , Twenty-first and Cumlng streets. 'In the card room at the rear of the bar the two -men were playing high-five for drinks. Looking on were Tom Jones , a 10- year-old brother ; "Doc" and Peter Green. I There were charges of cheating and an ! exchange of opprobrious names. Kelly had been drinking hard and ho accused Jones of taking advantage of his condition to manipulate the cards unfairly. Jones re sponded by daring his vls-a-vis to fight. Kelly accepted the challenge , malting the provision that the matter be settled In the yard behind the saloon. It wa when the men arose to repair to the back yard that the blow was struck. Kelly left his chair first. As ho passed out of the room Jones , angered .beyond control , seized n billiard cue from the rack and stepping up behind him swung the billet Against Kelly's head. Fallx UllCMMINUlOltH , Kelly fell to the floor unconscious. Those In charge of the 'bar ' room did not consider the Injury a serious one and wishing to avoid publicity they kept Kelly In the saloon , providing attendance for him there until Wednesday morning. Then realizing the Injured man's condition they sum moned the police. During the night Jones and his com panions prepared for flight. Horses and wagons were In readiness and the younger " " Instructed to ascertain brother , "Doc , was Kelly's condition at the earliest possible moment. When Kelly was taken to the hospital "Doc" was at the door to hear the phy sician's opinion of his Injury , and when the doctor said there were few hopes for the man the lad raced back to his brothers with the message. Then the trio hurriedly left. Kelly had the reputation of being re liable and Industrious. Ho was employed by Jackson Bros , on grajllng wprk ln.Iowq. The other three men are horse traders who travel a circuit. Including this city , South Omaha , Fremont , Elkhorn and Plattsmouth. Kelly has not recovered consciousness sufficiently to talk and the physicians will try trepanning today In the hopes of saving his life. - - - SOUTH OMASSA NEWS. More permits for building were Issued last month by Building Inspector Dunscombo than for any one month since the boom some years ago. The records show that llfty per mits were Issued In May , the .majority being - ing for residences. These permits range form $75 for repairs to $2,000 for a dwell ing. According to the cost of the structures for which permits -were obtained a total of $53,255 Is shown. Inspector Dunscombo gives it as his opinion that these applying for permits glvo only about two-thirds ol the value of the buildings to bo erected. This Is done In order to reduce the fee whU'h the inspector receives for Issuing the per mit nnd looking over the plans. Taking $53 , . 255 as two-thirds of the cost makes the total amount expended here last month In new buildings and repairs $71,006. Very few Improvements In the building line are now being made by the packing houses or the stock yards company , as so much was done Inst year In this lino. Cud- ahy Is eroding an addition to the glycerine factory. Armour has stopped building for a time , but It Is possible that the much talked of warehouse may bo constructo < later In the year. Hammond has completed the erection of several new smoke houses and Swift made a number of alterations early In the season , so that' now additions nnd Improvements at the packing houses are at a standstill for the tlmo being. Some work Is being done at the stock yards In the hog division , but as so many Improvements were made last summer very little money will bo spent 'this year In new buildings or alterations. Real estate men say that the demand for residence property still continues. Dozens of small houses nro going up In nil parts o the city and especially Is this true of the Third ward. Some really handsome dwell ings nro being erected In the First ward while many vacant lots nro being grade < preparatory to building. A short tlmo ago the Inquiry was for cheap real estate , bu now that has changed to a better grade o property , the Inquiry coming from nn en tlro/y different class of people. Houses are rented now almost as soon as the roof 1 on nnd still there docs not seem to bu any diminution In the demand for residences both large and small. City' * Monthly I'ny Hull. The city's monthly pay roll amounts to $2,088.33 a month , which Is considerably more than some people Imagine , This amorht Is divided between the different de partments In this manner : Pollco depart ment , 'fourteen ' men , $ ' .105 ; fire department eight men , $405 ; mayor , council , clerk police Judge nnd live stock Inspector , $558.33 street commissioner , $30 ; sanitary Inspector $70. The men employed on the streets are paid out cf the street repair fund and as this amount varies by the nmouht of worl done It Is hard to 'estimate Just what the city pays out monthly for wages. The Items mentioned are considered as fixed ex penditures for labor performed by the vari ous city employes who are either elected or appointed. At the monthly rate given the city pay roll costs annually $2S-I52. CIMV ( * IIIINI > H : People owning cows have lately gotten Into the habit of picketing them out on streetH or other public , places , nnd yesterday morning a serious accident was barely averted on North Twenty-third street. A cow had been staked out on this etreet by the owner when a vehicle ; driven by n woman passed. The horse became frightened at the trailing rope and the actions of the horse scared tt cow. The result was that the trail rope became entangled In the buggy , which wns overturned. No damage to npenk of wns done ns n couple of men who were passing rendered assistance at the critical moment. This staking of cows In public places Is In violation of an ordinance which was paagetl In ISS'.I ' nnd Is still In force. The ordinance declares It unlawful to allow domestic anl mats to run at largo or bo herded within the corporate limits. Cows or horses maybe bo picketed on unoccupied lands , but not on streets or alleys. The penally for violating this ordinance Is n fine of not less than $5 nor more than $100 , the violator to stand committed until the fine assessed Is paid. riu'pri * nntl 11 TIKPP for Srlilcy. The special train bearing Admiral Schley and party stopped at the Union Pacific depot hero for a few minutes yesterday noon. A crowd of several hulndrcd people gathered to catch a gllmpso of the famous naval officer , nndlicn \ he appeared on the roar platform ot his prlate car three cheers and ft tiger were given with a will. Gen eral Manderson Introduced the admiral to the assemblage , nnd In the course ot his remarks paid a glowing tribute to the In dustry nnd pluck of the citizens of the Magic City. In response to calls for n speech Admiral Schley thalaked the citizens ot South Omaha for their hos-pltablo greet ing , and nwurccl them that he would like to shako hands with every one were It not that his tlmo was limited. Mrs. Schley was then Introduced , and bowed her ac knowledgments to the crowd. As the train pulled out another cheer for the admiral nnd his party was given. 13 ! > ctrlrnl Clnli.

The Inspector does not hlnk that nny of the dairymen selling milk ipre will attempt to use anything of the tlnd , as the demand for milk Is really In excess of the supply , nnd dealers pol-i""i : ave any left over after coverlbg their outcs.
