THE WEALTH MAKERS.
1 Oil SI ROBBERY.
SAFETY DEPOSIT VAULTS SYS
TEMATICALLY RPBBED.
LARGE AXOUXT OF VOHET STOLEH.
J tut How Much Will Not Bo Knows
Until the Investigation Hm Been
Completed Not the Slightest
Clue as to How the Robbery
Wh Aoeomplls had Au
thorities In the Dark.
Omaha, Neb., Oct 29. The fact
was made public yesterday afternoon
that the safety deposit vault section
of the Omaha National bank had been
robbed, and sot dexterously that no
clue to the manner in which the work
was done is obtainable. Large sums
of money have been taken from boxes
in the vaults and the exact amount of
losses cannot be known until all have
been examined. The discovery was
made more than two weeks ago and
every precaution has been taken by
the bank ofllcials to keep the matter
a close secret
The vaults are under the manage
ment of a very estimable lady, who
is in every way fitted for the respon
sibility of the position she occupies.
No shadow of suspicion exists that
the losses have occurred through her
knowledge or connivance. The safe
ty vaults are constructed in the base
ment of the Omaha National bank
building, near the corner of Sixteenth
and Douglass streets.' They are mod
eled after the , best system in the
country and the private boxes are
surrounded with every safeguard the
ingenuity of science can devise. The
lessee of a private box is first required
to write his signature in a book, and
also upon a card, together with his
residence, etc. He, is then given a
private password and no two individ
uals have the same password.
It is suggested that a person not
entitled to open any given box may
secure possession of the keys sur
reptitiously. But the possession of the
key alone will not enable a stranger
to open a box. He must upon pre
senting himself at the safety vault,
present at the ' same time a written
order, signed by the owner of the
box, and he must also give the pri
vate password. The bank officials or
detectives offer no explanation, other
than the declaration that it is not
due to carelessness of the bank em
ployes. All deposits are guaranteed,
by the bank.
DUN'S BUSINESS REVIEW.
Indication! a Little Mora Favorable Than
They Have Been for Soma Time Fast.
New Yobk, Oct I 29. The B, G.
Dun & Ca's Weekly Review of Trade
says: Engrossing political excite
ment in many of the states causes a
natural slackening in some kinds of
business, but on the whole business
indications are rather more favorable
than they were a week ago. Gold ex
ports have ceased, quite a number of
mills have gone into operation and
the demand for products, if not equal
to that of prosperous years, is better
than it has been most of the time
this year.
The price of farm products do not
improve much and there are still
some strikes to resist reduction of
wages so that the purchasing power
of the people can not have materially
increased.
The wheat market is lower and
nothing appears to justify any im-
Eortant change. Western receipts
ave been 4,816,571 bushels, against
6,276,673 last year and Atlantic ex
ports only 584,263 bushels, ; against
1.060,666 last year. Corn is higher
without any very clear reason, and it
is noteworthy that at the same time
pork is 75 cents lower; lard 85 cents
per 100 pounds and hogs 40 cents low
er. The contrast indicates how little
the provision market depends at pres
ent on natural relations of supply and
demand.
SERIES OF FAMILY TRAGEDIES.
A Young Woman Commit Suicide Af
ter fatally Injuring Her Father.
Tbenton, Mo., Oct 29. Informa
tion reached this city yesterday of the
suicide of Miss Ollie Sproutt, who lives
fifteen miles northeast of this city.
On Tuesday evening Mr. Sprontt was
chastising his son Oliver, which en
raged Miss Ollie, twin sister to the
boy. . The girl Was a large, well-developed
young lady and she savagely
attacked her father, breaking three
of his ribs and injuring him so severe
ly internally that his life is despaired
of. After her fit of anger had passed
away the girl was strcken with re
morse and on Wednesday morning
secured a small shotgun and placing
the muzzle against her left breast she
sent the load through her body, just
above the heart She lingered in
great agony until 6 o'clock Thursday
morning, when death resulted. The
father is not expected to live and
Mrs. Sproutt is crazed with grief over
, tia,ari&s of terriblB teyefiies.
THE CZAR DOINQ WELL.
HI Weakness Disappears and HI Appe
tite Continue! Good.
St. Petersburg, Oct 29. The fol
lowing bulletin, signed by physicians
in attendance on the czar, was issued
at 10 o'clock this morning: "The czar
passed a fairly good night and his
appetite this morning is good. Yes
terday's weakness has disappeared.
His condition is otherwise un
changed." A Chinese Loan of 811,000,000.
London, Oct; :9. A silver loan of
$11,400,000 for China is expected next
week. The interest will be 7 per cent
and the issue price par. The loan,
being chiefly wanted for obligations
in Europe, will not create a direct
immediate demand for silver. The
Bank of England has issued a circu
lar announcing the further extension
of the Baring liquidation to Novem
ber of next year. This was expected.
The market is encouraged by learn
ing that the debt due to the state
bank is under $2,000,000.
BEFORE THE KINETOSCOPE.
Am Offer of 80,000 for the Corbett
FltMlmmone Coatees,
New Yobk, Oct 29. A letter was
forwarded yesterday by Gray Lat
ham,' rice president of the Kineto
scope exhibition company, to James
J. Corbett and Bob Fitzsimmons, of
fering them a parse of 850,000 for the
fight, which they want to take place
In Mexico, where there will be no
danger of official interference. The
letter was as follows:
"While we have no desire to inter
fere in any way with tbe plans of the
Florida Athletic club, before which
institution you have agreed to fight
for a purse of $41,000, we are advised
that many obstacles may be placed
in the way of holding a fight of such
importance in the Peninsula state.
"There is no definite information to
this effect, but in case the Florida
club should conclude to withdraw its
bid we propose to make yon an offer
which will certainly demand consid
eration. '
"Our offer is a plain one. The
fight must be held in the morning,
and in case the date selected should
prove a cloudy day, we will ask for a
postponement until a clear day.
However, we will be able to name a
date during the dry season which
will answer our purpose, for in this
season the odds are 50 to 1 that any
day will be suitable.
"We want the fight bofore Novem
ber 1, 1895, and will give 950,000 for
it The entire amount will be de
posited in any bank agreed upon by
you two months before the date set
for the contest or earlier if neces
sary, or we are will in? to put the
purse in the hands of Mr. Philip J.
Dwyer instead of placing it in the
bank, if that should be agreeable.
"We are enabled to offer this
amount of money without depending
upon the gate receipts, because while
1v
a good many ticket of admission will
be sold, that is entirely an after con
sideration with us. 1 Farther than
this, we are assurred that a goodly
amount of money will be subscribed
by merchants near the spot which we
have selected as the battle ground.
"Gbat Latham, vice President"
What Corbett Has to Say.
Kansas Citt, Mo., Oct. 29. Cham
pion Corbett, on reading the above
proposition, said that while the offer
of the Kinetoscope company was a
ery good one it could not be consid
ered at this time, as Fitzsimmons and
he were under contract to the Florida
Athletio club to fight in its arena and
until it was demonstrated that the
fight could not be pulled off success
fully in Florida it would be unbusi
nesslike to figure on a match else
where. '
KANSAS INSURANCE.
Latest Combine Scheme and Its Effect
The Reciprocal Tax Compromise.
Topeka, Kan., Oct 29. J. E. Moore,
representing the Symns Grocery com
pany of Atchison, complained to the
state superintendent of insurance
this morning of extortionate rates
exacted by the fire insurance agencies
of that city. The house carries about
$200,000 insurance, upon which the
rate has been ninety per cent on the
9100. Last week the. agents gave
notice that the rate would hereafter
be 91.05 because the house had em
ployed brokers and given some of its
insurance to "non-board" companies.
Moore denies that the house has in
sured in any other than "board" com
panies. Assistant Superintendent of In
surance Taylor says that even if the
house had gone outside of such com
panies it would be no excuse for them
to punish the . insured, although he
confesses that the companies have so
intrenched themselves that he is
afraid they cannot be reached by the
"anti-combine" law as it now exists.
The attorney general has compro
mised for $12,500 the suit against the
seventeen New York lire insurance
companies to recover the reciprocal
tax due to cities , of Kansas which
maintain paid fire departments. The
case was brought for something over
9100,000.

Washington, Oct 29. No authori
tative information can be obtained
here respecting the direct question as
to the president's purpose to write or
not to write a letter announcing his
desire that all Democrats should
earnestly support the Democratic
state ticket in New York. Neverthe
less it is the opinion of many of his
friends that he will not in any way
interfere in the New York campaign.
A Taney County Jury Finds the Spring

Springfield, Ma Oct 29. The jury
in the case of the state vs. T. E.
Burlingame, ex-president of the de
funct bank of Commerce, charged
with receiving deposits when he knew

Forsythe, Taney county, yesterday,
brought in a verdict of not guilty. He
was to have been tried at once on an

attorney was taken sick.
Tbe verdict is a great surptise as
the state proved everything it wanted
to and no evidence was offered for
the defense.

Jefferson City, Ma .Oct. 29. In re

BURRED TO DEATH WHILE SLEEPING
The Explosion of a Ump Start Con

the Structure at a Terrible speed "
The Tic t tin Unrecognizable
-Men, M omen and Chil
dren J amp for Life.
Seattle, Wash., Oct 29. A fire
which resulted certainly in twelve
deaths and , the injury of three other
persons broke out in the West street
house, a hotel at Columbia and West
street about 1 o'clock this morning,
and all the dead were burned beyond
recognition. The flames broke out so
suddenly and spread so fiercely that
the occupants were taken by surprise,
and there was a wild panic, men and
women jumping from the windows in
all manner of attire.
A sharp .explosion of a kerosene
lamp was heard in the kitchen in the
rear of the second story by S. F. But
ler, a son of the proprietor, and im
mediately tbe flames began to spread
through the dry inner timber of the
corrugated iron buildin?, which is
one of a block of two-story structures
owned by J. M. Coleman on the east
side of West street Butler raised
a cry of fire, which aroused the guests
with whom Jie house was crowded,
and a rush for life followed.
In the meantime Officer F. E.
Bryant had discovered the flames and
turned in an alarm, which brought
the fire department to the scene.
Then he turned his attention to sav
ing the terrified people, who peered
from every window, with the flames
fast creeping up behind them. He
found Mra Susie Allen and her 2-year-old
child at a window on the
West street side, the woman crying
for someone to save the child. "Drop
the child!" shouted the officer. She
did so, and he caught it safely In his
arms. Depositing it on the ground
he snatched a plank and set it against
a window. The woman slid down it
unharmed.
D. B. Glass jumped out of a win
dow, but not till his hair was burned.
Be struck on his back and lay strug
gling on the ground. Ha was picked
up and carried to the Northern Pa
cific passenger utation and with two
others was taken to a hospital.
The first dead man was taken out
from a room over the Hill Syrup com
pany's store, and was found with one
leg in his trousers and his shoes half
laced. The body was discovered with
his head covered with the bed
clothes, under the bed, having ap
parently hidden from the flames.
BRUTALITIES IN BRAZIL.
Rebels Burned Alive and Women Set on
r Fire A Correspondent's Fate. - '
Montevideo, Oct 39. An American
newspaper correspondent: - who has
just arrived here overland from Eio
de Janeiro, having passed through
the entire intervening country, re
ports that he saw the bodies of four
teen men who had been buried alive
in a standing position by orders of
Brazilian commanders, but with their
heads exposed and who had perished
either from starvation or from at
tacks of vultures, which, had eaten
out their eyes and picked the skulls
bare of flesh.
At Santa Mateo the clothing of
women suspected of sympathizing
with the revolution was saturated
with oil and set on fire. While the
women were burning the soldiers
were ordered to shoot and wound, but
not to kill them.
The correspondent says some -of his
finders were torn off, after he had
been subjected to torture by the ex
traction of the nails. Though now
under a doctor's care, he expects to
start for New York soon.
BICYCLISTS HAVE RIGHTS.
Not JHesponslble If Horses Are Fright
ened by Their Wheels.
St. Paul, Minn., Oct 29. The su
preme court of Minnesota has ren
dered a decision of decided interest
to bicyclists all over the country.
A few months ago, N. A. Thompson
was driving along a Minnesota coun
ty road and met W. M. Dodge on a
bicycle. Thompson's horse saw the
bicycle, ran away.smashed the buggy
to splinters and injured Mr. Thomp
son. The latter brought suit for
heavy .damages, but the supreme
court decided in favor of the bicy
clist Judge Buck says in his decision:
"Bicycles are vehicles used very ex
tensively for convenience, recreation,
pleasure and business, and the riding
of them upon the public highway in
the ordinary manner, as is now done,
is neither unlawful nor .prohibited,
and they cannot be banished because
they are not ancient vehicles and
were not used in the Garden of Eden
by Adam and Eve."

Michigan Charity Coven t Ion.
Charlevoix, Mich., Oct 29. Mrs.
Agnes T. D'Arcumble, founder of the
Home of Industry in Detroit and
one of the foremost charity work
ers in the state, has provoked a
sensation by her address in
the State Charities convention.
She demanded that legislation be en
acted to prevent large families where
the parents are indigent orunhealthy.
She argued that people had no right to
bring children into the world when
they could not support and educate
them or be certain that they would
be physically strong. The convention
agreed with Mrs, D'Arcumble's views,
but took no further action.

A MIRACLE IN OREGON.
A W09DEBFUL MAHSER IN WHICH
A MAI WAS CURED OF PARALYSIS-
A Case That Almost Surpasses the Mira
cle of Old.
From Tbe Rural Spirit, Portland, Ore.
Upon the Calapooia River, at the edge
of the Cascade Range, in the town of
Holly, Linn Co., Oregon, lives W. H.
Henderson, a man with an interesting
history. It is most interesting as told
by himself to a reporter.
"My native place is Brock ville, Can
ada,"said Mr. Henderson, "where I have
always made my home up to 1880, with
Ibe exception of a few years that I was a
resident of Oswego, N. Y., New York
City and Chicago. In 1885 I came to
Oregon. I am a carpenter by trade, and
in the summer of 1889 was working at
Co males, county-seat of Benton county,
Oregon. I did not feel well all summer;
my knees, elbows and shoulders ached so
badly that I concluded to go home the
last of August One day, after reaching
home, my wife was leading the horses by
the bouse and called me to see them.
While lookiug at the horses I felt my
knees getting weak. I went into the
house and fell on the floor. When I came
to my senses I was on the lounge and my
wife crying. John McDaniels, our near
est neighbor, was there. I recovered
somewhat through the day, and in the
evening I walked to my bed. That night
about ten o'clock I had another stroke
of paralysis. The torture that I went
through is too horrible for me to de
scribe. I was helpless. The neighbors
came in, Dr. Henrey, of Brownsville, was
sent for, and I made my will, but could
not sign it bo it was legible. The back
of my neck swelled np; Dr. Henrey had
them put mustard plasters on my neck
and down my back and down the side of
my right leg, and on the bottom of my
feet. The skin came off the bottom of
my right foot. I was covered with sores
from head to foot. If I had to be lifted
up in bed it took two or three men to do
it. There was a gathering in my left ear
and it broke and discharged matter
twice. My wife had to move my legs
when they were moved. I had watchers
at night for weeks. Mr. Michael Bara
gen, owner of the lumber mills on Ham
ilton Creek, was one of them. His post
office address is Lebanon, Linn county,
Oregon. Mr. William White, head sawyer
for the same, and Mr. James N. Rice, ex
member of the legislature of Oregon.
Weeks went by and months, and I lay in
bed helpless. When my bed was changed
another bed had o be brought along
side and me slid across alongside on to
it. I do not remember sleeping a wink
for months. They used a galvanic bat
tery for months, but k gave me no relief.
I bad them write toDr. Mosier, specialist,
Grand Street, New York, stating my
case. He wrote me he could not help
me, after which I concluded that I must
die. I had given up all hope. In read
ing my eastern papers I saw the miracles
that a medicine called Dr. Williams' Fink
Pills were performing, but, that itself
would not have induced me to try them,
had I not seen the name of Mr. G. T.
Fulford, of Brockville, Ont., connected
with them. That gave me hope. I had
known him from a little boy, and I knew
that money would not induce him to de
ceive his fellow man. I wrote Mr. Ful
ford to send me some Piuk Pills, and be
fore 1 had used the first lot I noticed an
improvement. I sent for more, and in a
little time I was on my crutches, and
walking around the house. The last
boxes that I got are doing the business.
The pains left my head altogether six
weeks ago, and it is now as clear as a
bell. The swelling on my neck is gone,
and my right ankle is much better. I
I cau get around now without any assist
ance, and am heavier than I ever was in
my life. There are a hundred people
about here who will testify to my sick
ness and cure if anyone doubts it."
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are not a
patent medicine in the sense that name
implies. They were first compounded as
a prescription, and used as such in gen
eral practice by an eminent physician.
So great was their efficacy that it was
deemed wise to place them within the
reach of all. They are now manufactured
by the Dr. Williams' Medicine Company,
Schenectady, N. Y., and Brockville, Ont.,
and are sold in boxes (never in loose
form by the dozen or hundred, and the
public are cautioned against numerous
imitations sold in this shape) at 50 cents
a box, or six boxes for f 2.50, and may
be had of all druggists or direct by mail
from Dr. Williams' Medicine Co. from
either address. The price at which these
pills are sold makes a course of treat
ment inexpensive as compared with
other remedies or medical treatment.

Universal Dairy Supplies.
The enormous development of the dairy interests in the west has necessitated
the establishment at distributing points, of houses that deal exclusively in sup
plies demanded by creameries, cheese factories, and in fact, by all farmers who
make a pound of butter or cheese, or who sell their milk to be shipped.
In the east, dairy supplies can be purchased in various-cities and at points
nearer each other than in the west, for the reason the demand for such supplies has
existed many years, and farmers have become accustomed to the use of all the im
proved macbiuery and appliances to the end that their products may be handled
more expeditiously and economically, which facte hare enabled them to resist out
side competition; at the same time, a more uniform quality of their product has
been assured, and in the end, whether they had five cows or one hundred, there
was more net gain where the improved methods and machinery were need.
Within the past few years the dairy and creamery business has grown to such
an extent in the Mississippi Valley States that houses making a specialty of sup
plying cow keepers, dairymen and creamerymen with the latest, best and most ap
proved machinery and appliances requisite to the economical production of prime
cream, butter and cheese, have been established in nearly all large cities.
1 , - O -
Attention is called to an illustration on this page of the Eureka Steam Boiler
and Feed Cooker, which is one of the best and most economical helps to save money
that the farmer can possibly buy. It is manufactured and for sale by the Creamery
Package Mfg. Co., of Kansas City, Mo., and right here we want to say that this
concern is one of the leading houses in supplying everything needed by the milk
man, dairyman, or creamery man in the United States, and it is believed to be one
of the largest houses of the. kind in the world. It is claimed that this concern has a
decided advantage over competing houses, as we are assured that it is able to give
buyers prices that others cannot meet, and at the same time it guarantees super
iority in quality. , .. . .'. ,
This house makes a specfalty of the De Laval "Baby" Separators, the sterling
quality of which is everywhere acknowledged, and it is asserted, and we believe
proven, that the "Baby" is as valuable, proportionately, to the keeper of five cows
(and will actually save their owner money) as it is to the owner of the largest herds.
We are in receipt of the 280-page catalogue of this company which we have
carefully examined, with the result that it appears to cover all of the ground, and
there is no doubt that the concern alluded to furnish a catalogue of the largest
amount of dairy supplies we have ever seen enumerated under one cover.
In addition, a monthly price list, giving name, description and prices of every
article, appliance and machinery in stock is issued, and applicants will be furnished
with either the large, illustrated catalogue or the monthly price list, or both of
them, by promptly sending their address. If any article is wanted, whether the
catalogue is at hand or not, it will be entirely safe to order the same from this
company, as they may be fully depended upon for square treatment.

BOVS AS DESPERADOES.
Two Lads Accused or Murdering Mayor
March of Kinsley, Kan.
Dighton, Kan., Oct 29. Carl Ar
nold and William Harvey, formerly of
this county, and aged respectively 18
and 20 years, are believed to have
been the murderers of Mayor Marsh
of Kinsley. October 18 they stole a
team at Enid, 0k., and started north
west Saturday night the attempted
robbery and the murder'of Mayor
Marsh occurred. Wednesday night
they passed through here and
reached the ranch of William
Green, a bachelor, sixteen miles
Dorthwest from here, at 6 o'clock
Thursday morning. They blindtolded
and tied Green and robbed him of $10,
and kept him prisoner in his own
house until dark that night, when
they liberated him and left.
Officers are in pursuit from this and
adjoining counties, but the country
is rough and it is unlikely that they
will be captured at once.
Both of the boys grew up in this
county. Arnold had shown tendencies
to a criminal career for some years,
but Harvey had always been an
exemplary boy, though easily in
fluenced. Appointments by the President.
