DIES IRAE ,
A Young Man's Villainy , a
Girl's Folly and a Fath
er's Wrath ,
Which Terminate in a Flog
ging Scene.
Rumors of a little sensation which
occurred in a North Omaha family of
respectability aud high standing less
than a week ago , are in circulation ,
and if correct cattaiuly point out ono
instance of just interference in love
affairs , and may , if published , prove a
warning to some who are treading &
like dangerous path.
As the story goes , a young man
employed down in the central r ortion
of tae city has been paying his at-
cations to a young and lovely daugh
ter in the above mentioned respecta
ble family , which attentions were not
only dis'astefnl to the stern parent of
the young lady , but were Euch as to
arouse his st-spicious of the honor of
the wooer's attentions. The
jirl became moody and list
less , and from having been
the light of the house became its
shadow. She would remain in her
room by ihe hour , lost her appetite
and in brief grcitly alarmed her
parents who were in & quandary as to
how to treat the disease.
At last the old gentlaman imagined
that the gtil was plotting an elopa
inent with -her lover and ha became
watchful as a hawk. On Sunday
morning his daughter did not get up
when the noise of the explosion shook
the entire city , and her father climbed
the stairs to awaken her.
In response to knocks and calls ofl
repeated , only deep and dreadful st
lence answered. Was she sjoncJ Hat
she fled with tha object of her affec
tions an his condemnation ? The
door was forced open , and there sai
the young lady , who hastily concealec
something beneath her pillow as the
door opened. It was soon taken from
its hiding place and proved to be
well , perhaps not Nana , but a good
deal wors3 , and such aa wai calculatec
to drag any young girl down
to infamy. The book bare on its fl
leaf the name of the young gentlemai
whom the father had censured , anc
thia was proof strong aa holy writ o
the justice of his position with rela
tlon to the fellow. Helefthisdaugh
ter to her own meditations and he

Our attention has been called to
the reckless and lawless driving con
slaiitly done on Sixteenth street. No
attention whatever is paid to the law
directing drivers to "keep to the
right , " and hair-breadth escapes from
collisions are of nightly occurrence.
Drivers , many of them , oven when on
the wrong side of the road , refuse to
turn out , and some of the drivers
from Fort Omaha are particularly im
pudent in this respect. The driver
of the ambulance containing Presiden
Hayes , on his return from the for
last Friday , neatly ran into one of ou
city officials , who had not time to go
out of his way. Let the police get the
drop on a few cf those smart Aleck
at once and sive smash-ups.

The Iowa Musical Wonder.
It is now announced that Iowa ha
produced the greatest musical prodig ;
ever known , Little Ella , a child o
four summers , and weighing bu
thirly five rouuds. She is creditet
with tha gifted abili-y to play hun
dreds of pieces of mime correctly , on
call by title , and to plav as well blind
folded , and with the key b iar <
covered The Aldeu Times of Augus
27th has thia to s.y :
"The little midget sat pert and orim
at the otgau , while a gentleman a
the left worked the pedals. The pro
gramme consisted of some forty o
fifty ss'eslirna from popular music
among which often occurred pieces o
difficult composition , and all wereren
dcred nicely acd to the satisfaction o
the audience. Her best efforts were wit
a imntla overing the key-boaH am
herself blindfolded , in which condi
tion she can play her music as
well as with free eyesight and naket
key-hosrd. Littla Ella .is withou
doubt the greatest musical prodig ;
ever placed on the state , and it is"
pleasure to know 'hat she is an
lowan. She is the only child of fou
summers that ever attempted to giv
a public entertainment , and we wis
to state that though at such tender ag
and wei hing hut thirty-five pounds
ahe gave auch a sarpnsingly wonder
ful exhibition as to call forth encom
iums of the highest character from a ]
who heard her.
This is certainly the rarest rnusica
wonder of the age , and we hope t
hear more of her. It is likely tha
she will soonappear in Omaha.

Last Saturday afternoon two youil ?
men who had been living down in the
icinity of La Plattecame into town
with a load of hay which they wanted
o sell , a neighbor , Mr. Martin , hav-
UR loaned them the double team and
wagon for the occasion. They un *
litched the horses over on Fourteenth
treet near Howard , and at once took
he horses and harness over to Cum-
ngs * auction room on Douglas street
ndhad him offer them for sale.
One team , with harness , was sold to
Tohn D. Creighton for $95 , and the
ithera to Anton Gsantner , who lives
int on Thirteenth ttreetfor874. Aftsr
ecuring their money ths young men
mmedialely departed as soon as they
could , and have not been seen nor
leard from since. In addition to the
two teams they took some money ba-
onging to Martin , which he had given
them to make some purchases with
'or him.
Subsequently it seems Mr. Croigh-
ton sold his team for $115 , and Mr.
Gsatner his for § 90 , and every
body was happy until the owner ,
Mr. Martin , appeared upon the scene
and claimed the property. The team ,
secured by Mr. Creighton , was easily
recovered , but the other had been
sjld to a party some distance from
town , who at noon yesterday had not
been found. The owner is expected in
this morair > g to identify the ani-
ina's , and it is probable that somebody
will bo out a little money on the trans
action.

$4.500 Blaze on Tenth
Street This Morning.
At ten minutes before 1 o'clock this
morning the sharp cries of 0. wonnn
whro heard in the neighborhood o
Poppleton'a new block on Tenth
street. The cries soon grow to pierc
ing shriek' , and men's voices soon
joined in what seemed ) to those who
were in the neighborhood , to ba a
broil. A reporter of THE Bsfe , whd
heard the cries from the office , rtlshec
out and was Attracted to the north
west corner of Tenth and Harney
streets , where several wdmen and
three or four men were hastily dress
ing and crying all the while for dear
life. It was then found that the criea ,
Which had before been unclia'iugiiieli-
able , wcra intended as an alarm of
fire , the people uttering them being
Unable to speak English. One of the
men who came up at that moment was
echt to the nearest fire alarm box ,
while the cry of "Fire , fire ! " rang
through Farnain street , was caught
up by the policemen , and in this way
reached the Sixteenth street engine
house. All this while , the fire , which
at first was a little blaze in the bak
ery in the basement , kept growing
hotter and hotter and burst through
the door en Harney street. The fire
was so hot that the few who were on
the spot , had water and buckets been
bandy , could have accomplished very
little , and all that remained to do waste
to await the arrival of the fire depart
ment. Soon the bell of the Git ho
oral began tolling , and people came
rushing to the place. The fire was
aeen to creep through the basement ,
and a bit of breeze just then spring
ing up fanned the flames , which EOOU
enveloped the porch on Harney atreot ,
and the fiery tongues licked through
the first floor , so that when the fire
men arrived the whole building was
ail ablaza. Though it seemed an in *
terminable long while before water
was thrown on the fire , the work of
the faremen was remarkably rushed ,
the flro spreading Incredibly fait
Those who were In the building at the
time , the family of Schlank , who kept a
second-hand clothing store , had little
time to spare in getting out , and then ,
half dressed , succeedtd in dragging
out perhaps $100 of their stock.
There was danger of the fire communicating -
municating to the row of small build
ings on the west , and willing hands
quickly cleared them of all things
movable , but the firemen did effect
ive work and the fire waa kept within -
in the limit of corner building.
The alarm waa given that a
largo qumtity of cartridges
waa stored in * the shop
and a scramble of spectators followed
and none too soon , for shortly a little
cannonading was started which caused
those , who did not know the cause
of the explosion , to rush pell-mell up
or down Tenth street. These vol
leys were kept up for some few min
utes , fortunately no one being injur
ed.
ed.The
The building was owned by F. Wirth ,
who purchased it only on Tuesday
last fcr 51,200. He had just finished
moving about § 400. worth of furai.
ture into the second-story , which waste
to have been used as a boarding
house. Mr. Wirth told a BEE re
porter that he supposed that the
building was insured as he had msde
airangementa with Judge Weiss yes
terday afternoon to have it insured ,
and though he had not received his
papers , ho had been told that it
would take effect last evening
Sclank's loss on stock and household
goods waa probably about § 2,600.
The family escaping with barely
enough clothing to cover themselves ,
and several piles of clothing from
the stock were saved for them.
The loss on Gary's bakery in the
basement was in the neighborhood of
$600 , he just having put in a lot of
flour. The whole loss will amount
to something like § 4,600 , on which
there is little insurance.
There was talk of incendiarism but
as no one knows exactly how the fire
ciught it is merely a conjecture , but
these who were in the building can
give no other explanation of the
origin , other than they think it must
have been set ,
