The strike of the U. P. switchmen at Omaha, failed to materialize this morn- ning. The switchmen had said when ' they heard that the B. & M. Company bad leased the U. P. bridge that they would go out on a strike before they would switch for "scabs" and it was of course expected that they would be as rrrl oq thIr wnrtl. . but when the time came that they expected a "scab" engin eer along they were surprised to find that the K. C. train was pulled across the river by the regular switch engine and thna Hip trouble was all avoided. We are clad to see this matter so peacefully adjusted. "We have enough strikes to re tard the business of the country already nl we believe that some means should be taken to adjust all these difficulties. The boys seem to think they have ciniL- thA lcv nntfl on the ioke of the season which seems to have been played on L. G. Larson. Yesterday some pro fessional horso traders arrived in town and bantered Mr. Larson for a trade. The trade was made and horses exchanged One of the trader." poured some turpen tine on the Mr. Larson's horse's tail which soon set him to kicking and rearing. The traders then told Mr. Larson that the horse had fits and that this was one he -was taking and that he had about four a day. Mr. Larson not being on to the trick which had been ply:d, immed iately wanted to trade back, which was refused. Mr. Larson then went and swore out a writ of replevin for the horse and ent the sheriff after it, but before the sheriff conld get out after the horse the traders had hid it away where he could not find it for sometime, but it was at last found and brought to town and we presume the case will be brought into court today. We understand tnai tue trader offers to let Mr. Larson have both - in -Wh will be about the uviio iui cost oi tho court proceedings. But it's a pretty good joke aU around and we have bo doubt bat both will beNelad to get Brave Boy Burglars. Another burcrlarv was committed in a the city last nixht. This time it bein Speck's saloon burglarized by Toinie Lee and a boy named Hobinson. About two o'clock last night a policeman Frye was making his regular rouud he stopped to talk for a few minutes with the night clerk at the Kiddle house. He had been there but a short time whe he noticed a dim light in the saloon across the street. Calling the attention of the clerk to the light they both began to watch and soon saw the light again. At this juncture the policeman slipped across the street to the saloon door just in time to see another match lighted and through the door he saw Tommy Lee. The policeman went to the door and knocked and called the name of the proprietor, thinking that he must bo in there with the boy. The match quickly went out and all was still and no answer came to the policeman's call. He then went to the back door and knocked and called for tho proprietor but no answer came. He then noticed that all the doors and windows were se curely fastened and concluded that there could be no harm in waiting till morning so he went away. This morning he came down and informed the proprietor what he had seen and they began to look around to see what was wrong. They went to the money drawer and found it empty. Policeman Frye then started out n lmnr for t.lm boT. and rroincr down to w J 7 o where he lived he found that he had not been home last night. He then went to Robinson's and found that neither of the boys had been at home during the night Then in company with Mr. Robinson they started out to hunt the boys and met them by the postoffice. On examination they found the money divided up between the boye which was turned over to the policeman and the boys were taken to jail. On arriving there it was found that the boys had taken quite a number of ci gars which they had hid in different nlaces. Thev told where thev were hid and they then went and got them. The burglars cleaned out the money drawer which contained about $8 and took about 30 cisars. Jt was a pretty slick scheme it seems that the boys had hid themselves in tlift saloon last ni rht before they had LAST WEEK OF OUR GREAT DISSOLUTION SAL E.

As it is they will, perhaps, be sent where they will have a chance to earn something better than burglarizing a saloon. F our Ply Linen Col-1 At Mayer's Opera 1t-q 1(1. .

Fiskc, of New Jersey, for president and Dr. John A. Brooks, of Kansas City, Mo., for vice preside nt. They adopted a vigorous platform, censuring the republican and democratic parties for their licensing the liquor traffic, calling for an abolition of the internal revenue system, and a tariff reform so that the tarirf will be abolished on eatables, &c. They favor woman suffrage, abolition of polygamy and uni form laws of marriage and a civil service reform. A. G. Wolfenbarger and Geo. Scott, were appointed members of the na tional comniitte from Nebraska and the convention adjourned with loud applause for the successful candidates. Take the women out of a church and in less than a year there would nt be enough Christianity in it to wad a pop gun, if christsanity could be used for such a purpose, and yet the Methodist general conference refuses seats to women dele gates. What a lack of appreciation of the very foundation of the church, the back bone, yital, charity, perseverance and consistancy. What a mountain of evidence that the hog (figuratively speak ing of course) is supreme in church, as elsewhere. What a sad commentary on the discriminative perception of men.
