SEACHEIST , 623 lOt Ticket Agent , THE CLOSING DAT,1" A Sudden Closing of the Great Exposition , Sketches of Several Import- ant Exhibits on the Ground. Tbe last day of the fourteenth an- iiial exhibition of Nebraska products , ne arts and live stock was a cold , wet and gloomy one , the sky bejng tovered with a mags of dark and dubl- us clouds , the thunder rolled , light ning flashed , the rain poured and a old northern wind whistled through , ho city. These adverse cir- nmstanccs tended to lesson the at- .endance. . Few went for mere pleas ure ; nearly all were onjthe "epoc , " to : apture bargains when stakes rero pulled. Toward noon worfc of demolition was com- nenced , various articles were < lis- of by sale , and in a 'cw honrs iho several buildings were robbed of their glories , and pre- snled a forlorn and deserted appear- nco. The governor's guard still lin gered round the gates and other posts duty , like lonely sentinels on the dvancc line. The honors and pa } ' they have received have boon galled with many a needless insult for carry- ng into effect the positive orders of , heirsuperiors.Evcry loafer and rowdy , nd many persona who think themselves ; cntlemen , felt bqund to insult them ivith vulgar words when refused ape- sial privileges on the grounds. They > aid no attention to these taunts , how- performed their duties conscien- iously , and deserve and doubtless will 'eceivo every consideration that the Into board and business men of Orna-1 .a . can bestow. THE r-XHIBIT OF A. .t. SIMPSON , ext to M echanic'e Hall , was without competitor on the ground , as It 15 yell known that the ( jooda oearing \Ir. \ Simpson'e stamp are nnrivaled for ilrength , durability and finish by any uraod out in the west. At his estab lishment nothing but the best wood is ised , first clasi workmen employed , .nd as a result his buggies , coaches , nd wacons are not surpassed any where. The display comprised a hand some covered side-bar busgy , steel- mounted , gold-trimmed , and finely lolished , sold to a gentleman from jincaln ; an open side bar buggy , limilar in finish to the first , purchased iy Mr. James Stophcnson ; n covered bugpy , very strong , with side lamps , made for Dr. Goffman ; two and four wheeled sulkies , the latter weighing only Gfl pounds , made of hickory , nd finished in oil ; one platform spring baker's wagon , with hiountain back , made for the Oinaha bakery , and a Concord coach. The exhibit occupied a separate wing of the building , and was visited by thousands. The factory 's located at 14M And 1411 Dodge treot , and is the oldest and strongest nbtttulion of the kind in the city. MAX MEYEll's EXHIBI , t the fair comprised several lines of goods in two distinct displays , one 'ocalod in the main building , the other n Mechanics' balL The former con- listed of a fine selection of musical in- tniments , costly jewelry , precious itones and other costly trca tiros.

Tito house Is en terprisinp , has built np a magnified ! business in this western country and is pushing ahead in a manner that is at once commendable and eminently worthy of its good name. HEADY MADE CtOTHIKO , and genis' furnishing goods , of every variety and of the finest quality , were exhibited in several cases in the main building by Mr. M.

G. 11. and J. S. Collins , of this city , consisting of harness , saddles , Eaddli fixtures , and a show case filled will : silver-mounted bits and spurs , car' tridge belts , holsters , and fixtures o every variety. A single harness ex hibited was particularly handsome , made of the best material , and valnec at $125. The saddles are the mos. elegant of their class , manufactured in their shop one being raised stamped work , valued at 5125 , made by Mr. F.Vflson \ , a skilled workmanand designer , all done by hand. Ladies' saddles , elegant in design and finish , surmounted the display. A picture of Buffalo Bill's saddle was exhibted , a bridle made of hair , valued at § 40 , and Mexican bits and spurs , inlaid with silver , ranging in price from 55 to 525. Mr. Chas. Landrcck is su perintendent of the factory , a gentle man who ranks among the first of his profession , as is shown by the qual ity beauty and finish , of his man ufactured articles exhibited. The firm of G. H. & J. S. Collins are the pioneers in the saddlery hardware line in thU city , carrying a large stock of home and foreign made goods. Their business extends throughout the west ern states , and is constantly increas ing. The store is located at 131c Farnham street. ST. PAD ! SULKY PLOW. The unbroken line of Immigrants J t and laud buyers from older states and foreign lauds to the virgin prairies-of the west increases two-fold the already large demand for machinery for preliminary work. This is particularly true of plows , necessa ry at the very outset to break the land and sow the first crop. They are ne cessary not only at the start but are indispensable year after year , and ev ery smart and energetic farmer must supply himself with the latest improv ed labor-saving machinery in order to reap better financial results [ from his crop. The St. Paul sulky plow is one of those implements that saves great ly in time , labor and amount of power to [ operate. It 'is fmade entirely of wroughtiron , both frame , wheels and beam , is strong , durable and easily operated. All parts are duplicated and can be supplied on short notice. The plow is so arranged that it can be worked in any kind of ground , as well as in the smo ithest and cleanest. f Square corners can bo turned with it without raising the plow , a new and important featuw which farmers will readily appreciate , as it saves consid erable in time and labor. The wheels are large , with wide tire and heavy boxing hub. The breaking attachment is simple and ojsily attached. A fine Castor Cut ter , made exclusively by this house , is used . in this plowAn inspection of these improvements will convince any p.rson that they are honestly made , of the best materials and by experi enced workmen. They ara In exclu sive use in Minnesota , Iowa , Kansas and Nebraska , and increaeo in popu larity every year. "Wm. M. Bushiiell is the general manager of the Southern branch located at Council Bluffr , Iowa , where the plans and information were obtained. A Ir.rge number of these plans were on exhibition , provittg a source of much interest and curiosity. EATON. Among the displays In Floral Hall we noticed none more complete than that of our friend Ealo'ri , the leading photographer of Omaha. It included , every style of pictures known to the art and to mention which would re quire more space than wo haVe now to command. Especially beautiful were the crayon portraHe , notably that . o ! the late Edward McShane , which was admired by all. The portrait of Miss Bslbach was also the object of much ttention. A fine line of photographs , il paintings and velvet passepartouts were exhibited. Two life'sizcd statue ? , Hebe and Pbt bo , were in grEat favor , nd before they had bean on the rounds long were sold to one of our iromtnent attorneys. All the photo- : rapha and portraits of Mr. Eaton's ollcction were especially mark- d for the total absence of hat stiffness which too often charac- crizes the work of many artists in his line , Mr. Eaton seeming to put ifo and vitality into all his work , to a wonderful degree. OAKES AMES. The Construction of the Mon umental Arch at Sher- mafl to Begin at Once. A party of its mechanics , E. S. tawl y , Martin O'Drien , Stephen Irown , Patrick Gtffney aud William tsison , cr.me in froai theeaut yestcr- pay morning \l.i the Hook 'onto ' on their way tj Sherman , Wyoming Territory , to begin the trork of construction if the mon ument to the memory of Oakei Ames , of Credit Mobiller fame. Cousldorabo ! mention has from time to time bsen uade , concerning this monument which was ordered by the board of directors of the Union Pacific two years ago. It is to be built over the- Union Pacific track at this its highest filiation , and the highest ground in tint United States , iu the form of a pyramidal arch , the bi e of which will be sixty feet square aud Iho capstone , which will weigh sixteen tons , eighty feet above the track. The material used will be the green granite , quarried from the immediate vicinity of Sherman. The contract for the work is lot to Xorcross Bros. , c Massachusetts , and the construction will occupy from twlvo to eighteen months' time. The structure will b surmounted by a bust ofOakc Ames , facing eaat , and will bo appro priatsly inscribed. At this point th party was met by Mr. O. W. Norcross , who left with them on train No. 7 las evening for Sherman , whore they wil bagin work under the contract at once. once.An An additional force of forty men > will follow in the spring. A promi nent official of the Union Pacific , and a number of the board of directors , being interviewed by a BEE reporter on the subject expressed a regret that atm the monument was not to bo built on an eminence to 0110 side of the tract , where it could be eeon by all , as in fie contemplated petition it cannot well be scan by passengers on the I train. I Another Sorrow. It is with sadness that THE BEE chronicles the loss to Mr. and Mr ? . Drexel of their little daughter Clara . since the recent death of little Christine ' ? tine , the youngest daughter in their family , which occurred Friday. The bereavement is the more distress- 33ee ing that the-o parents have lost three children by the same dread disease diphtheria within a year.

A Salutary/ Lesson Given to One in the Shape of a Bullet. A Haul of Shoes and Burglars' Tools. A little before 2 o'clock Saturday considerable of a hubbub was ere * ated in the neighborhood of Harney and Eleventh streets , by the reports of pistol shots. Quito a number of people were on ihe streets , oven at that early hour , many of them being strangers , who quickly rushed In the direction from which the reports camev Those who were earliest there saw the flying ctat tails of three men who daahtd up the alley between Barney and Farnham streets. Two more shots were fired before the form leading ihe procession of flyers reached Thirteenth street , when there wai more indis criminate firing. Although there were men enough on hand to head off any average sized crowd , if they had only taken different courses , yet nearly all being unacquainted with the city they followed at the heels of the officers ) who Were Soon engaged in the chase up the alley. Finally , a crowd of officers , specials , citizens and strang ers drew up at Sake's drug store , where the prostrate form of a man lay in the doorway. The wounded man was of medium height- , plainly dressed , and strange to say , Shoeless. He was suffering from a severe wound from a ball that entered - od near his left shoulder blade and scored through into his neck , One of the firat questions put to him was as to how it happened that he was in his stocking feet and be explained , with apparent difficulty , that his shoes were too tiahtand that he had taken thorn off. He refused to say anything as to how he came to bo shot. A littdr was improvised of a collar door and the Wounded man was bomb off to the jail , where an exariiiiialion of his wounds was1 tnado , and they wore thought to be of a not very serious naturo. The alloy was searched and ust bick of Dewey & Stono's , two shoos were found , ono a low-tie and the other a buckle , while at the mouth of the alloy on the west side of 13th street , two more shoes were piciced up , and the four mated. Beilhdr of the shoos appeared to have been worn for some time the bottoms being per fectly dry and could not have been worn in the muddy alley. At tha time , when the three men dashed across 13th street , the wbunded leading. Tom Collins , block watchman , was standing near Mart Kennedy's saloon , just in front of the alloy. The leadef appeared to bo con fused starting to .turn , successively to the right and left , and then con tinuing on. Seeing Collins , ho ex claimed , "My Goo , what shall I do. " He was final'ycslled back and taken in low. The other two men rushed on towards Fourteenth street , past Col lins , who afxuck one with his canq , his revolver , wnich he had drawn , failing twIce.Those men vanished atonce.Itis said that the firing at this point was at Collins who , however , escaped be ing hit. . Charlie Hosiers and Minnie Kahn wno were on llth street near the Chi nese liundry , say that they saw throe men trying to effect an entrauco to John's shop , and the Chinaman being aroused by the ringing of a bell at tached to his door gave the alarm , when they chased them , firing two shots in the direction of the fugitives. Sa'urdi y our reporter visited the wounded man at the jail and found Dr. Laisenring there The doctor said the woiiod was not necessarily serious unless inflammation should set in. The bullet mint have been a largo one , as it m do u ghastly bole It passed over the shoulder and down the neck , lodging in close pn x'mity ' to the lungs. It was not found and probably will remain where it is for all timo. How serious tbe result may prove will not ba seen for a few days , but it was deemed best to remove tbe man tc the county jail. "This , " said the doctor , "is ono of those cases where the need ef a city hospital is felt. " The man gave the name of James Henderson , from Chicago. He had a room at Bernstein's on Douglas street and SJVs he left thereabout 11 o'clock with his girl , and went to a house of ill-fame on Harney near Sixteenth. He.was returning and just at the alley the mon rushed upon him and fired with tbe result known. Ho explains Saturday that ho had not tied his shoes , which fell off He does not account for the mismating. The story is regarded by the officers as too thin. Bis trunk was brought up from his room at Bernstein's , and was found to contain among other things four suits of new clothes and a pair of new boots. On the route of the flight were found some burglars' tools including an arrangement for blowing powder in to a safeand nippers for turning keys. It looVs probable that the same gang robbed the cathedral safe , and had a regular outline of work laid out for the night , and as if the wounded man was ono of the gang and was hit by the pistol shot fired at the crowd aa they left the laundry.

S About 11 o'clock Friday nightFathet English ; who was sitting in his study in the residence adjoining the cathe dral , of St. Philomenaj hsard an explo sion which he took to be either the | noise of fire-arms up town , or one of the windows of the church blown in by the storm. Shortly before mid night , the sexton , who sleeps in a room right over the eacristy , came home , having spent the day at the fair , and as he was ab'out to enter he smelled 1 powder. ( This alarmed him and ho went over and reported to hiF Father English and the two returned together to the church. On entering tctl they found that all the lights had bean extinguished : , and had to procure a light before the examination could be Iin made. : It was then discovered that a , bold and sacrelt'gioiia raid had been | made upon tiio cliurlJb. The ohiirch Ms safe , which is located in the sicristy , ai the rear of the cathedral , v as found aitc tc have had thn whole front blown out and its contents , consisting only of a few valuable articles , taken. An entrance had been effected through the south window , hfter which all the windows were closed to deaden the sound. A large hole was drilled through th'a door of the safe , through which the powder was insert ed and the charge efcplodod willi th8 result stated. It is believed that one of the gane was injured by the explo sion , as marks of blood were found on the knob of iho door leadingtothe sacrlstry. The safe was a large , old-stylo "Herring's , " and contained tho' 6haltcos , gold cerbarium and other vessels. The thieves also took a .silver goblet and basin belong- Jiig to B'nhop O'Connor , aHd use , by him in celebrating Pontifical Hfqll Mass. His name was engraved on the goblet. The work was evi dently that of accomplished burglars , and was not botched in any particular. The tools wcra all carried off , and no tiaces other than the blood left of their Visit. Thoi en trance must have b'een made early in | % evening , for thn work would re quire sorao little time. . Enterprise. F. D.
