A TRAQEDY AYEKTED ,
An Amusing Result of an
Omaha Woman's
Jealousy.
Pistols for One , Grip Sacks for
Two.
A few days since a merchant of
Omaha , who by the way his a tery
jealous wife , was called west on busi
ness , to be gone two or three weekr.
His wife , who usually accompanied
him on such trips , .was not invited
this time , and her suspicions were
aroused the moment her husband
etirted.
About ten days after the gentleman ,
on leaving his hotel in his hurry to
catch & train , forgot his satchel.
When he reached the next town he
immediately wrote the landlord to
have the bapgage forjrarded to him.
But through eoraa mistake It was sent
direct to this city. A few days after
this , as the jealous wife sat imagin
ing all Boris of wicked things
about her absent lord , a boy
put in his appearance and said that
Mr. X. had sent in hia satchel and
wanted to know if he should bring it
up to the house or leave it at the
store. "Bring it down at once , * ' said
Mrs. X. , in surprise , " 1 wonder wlut
it means ? Maybe John hai been
murdered by the Indians. " And the
heart of the good woman softened , and
she determined to banish all thoughts
of the green-eyed monster. Whan
the eatchel arrived she took it at once
to her room , and setting it down in a
corner , turned to go out.
But she halted at the door and said ,
"Now I Vender if John hasn't sent
something a present , or a note ; or
maybe he has sent in his washing to
bave it sent to the laundry. Anyhow ,
I believe I ought to open it an3 see. "
She got down on her knees and
examined the fastenings ; it wac
firm and would not budge. Sh
was more anxious than ever now , and
tried to open it. She finally managed
to break the lock with a pair of shears
and the satchel sprang open. She at
once began to empty it of its contents
various articles of soiled wearing ap
parel were carefully laid to ono side ,
with two decks of cards , a half pin !
bottle part full of a reddish looking
fluid , and several other eimilar ar
tides. She was near the bottom nov
and was examining everything carefully -
fully , when she came across an clt
memorandum book. She eagerh
aeizod It , when out dropped the picture
turo of a beautiful yonng lady. Shi
scanned the strange face a taomeht
and laying it to one side commence !
turning the leaves of the book-
She feoon found a letter written in ;
lady6 hand , which begun , "M ;
Darling John , " and ended "You
Loving Carrie. "
The lady was on * he war-path now
and dived down into the old grip
sack for new discoveries and foum
another letter , in which the impuden
Carrie had dared to call John he
John "darling , pet , love , " etc. Thii
was too much for the delicate nervei
of Mre. X. She rose with blood ii
her eye. She made up her mind t <
go up town and purchasj a dosoo
arsenic , wait till her husband re
turned , and then , after telling hi&
all , swallow the fatal dose in hio prca
enca. But before she reached th <
store aho glanced over ono of the let
ters and changed her mind , and turn
ing round , entered a gun shop am
purchased n seven-shooter instead
Returning home , she packed thi
satchel juat as she hud found it , anc
started for the dopot.
Mr. X. , sat in his hotel smoking j
fragrant Havana , deeply absorbed ii
his own thoughts when tbo door sud
dcnly opened and Mrs. X. , stood before
fore him. The man was speechless
but with an effort led the way to thi
sitting room. Once inside the lad ]
closed the door and confronting hei
husband ] said , "I have brought yoi
your satchel John. " Shespokei-.it
stage whisper , her eyes ihming am !
her form erect. John waa dumb
founded and silent. But the wronged
wife put the satchel on a table end
began unpacking it , just as she had
done once before , and said , "Now
John , I am about to prove to you thai
I know you to be a guilty man. '
"Why my dear , " said John , who had
partly recovered from the first shock.
"How on earth did you get mj
satchel } I left it at Hastings and or
dered it forwarded here. "
Wituout deigning a reply , Mrs. X.
exposed the picture and letters to the
view of her husband , who all at once
began to see light through darkness ,
andsaid : "Why , Mary , these are not
my clothes , nor my memorandum , not
my satchel ; see the name hero on the
inside , and here , on this shirt , and in
this book ; why what are you driving
at ? "
Poor Mrs. X'a brain was in a whirl ;
she saw her mistake and wanted to die ,
Dut could.
"I can't blame you , " said Mr. X. ,
'and * * * * . "
They returned home the next day
via Hastings and exchanged satcheh.
The * conplo think the story has been
sept mum by those who knew it , but
when they eeo this they will know

The Instrument , by Which
Death Took Away David
Barker.
Dying in Delirium.
For about two months past a young
man named David Barker has been
employed as a runner for the Omaha
house. He was about thirty-two
years of age , and had served ten years
n the regular "army of the United
States , having been in Omaha only
about a year.
He was seriously addicted to drink
and of late had been warned by his
companions to desist or he would kill
himself. He did not , however , heed
he warning , and his doom came as
jredicted. On Wednesday he
made his usual trips to the trains , but
was even then noticed to be not quite
right in his head , and was evidently
entering upon a spell of the tremens.
Thursday he did not make his trips ,
mt sat about the bar room all day , at
imes singing or making some unusual
demonstration , which proved that ho
was growing worto.
About 4 o'clock last evening he had
) ecomo so bad that a doctor waa sent
or , and about the same time some ot
us friends darted to carry htm up
stairs to bed.
The doctor was not found immedi
ately and had he been it would have
" "
aeen of no use , for on his way up
stairs , the noor fellow died In the
arms of those who carried him. He
was laid on his bed as it did not seem
possible tint he had gone so suddenly ,
but in a few minutes it was evident
that there was no human aid that
could avail in his case. Coroner
Jacobs was notified and at once re
moved the remains to his undertaking
rooms on Fatnham street , where il
was at first thought that an Inquest
would be held.
On investigation , however , the facts
were so conclusive that it was no
thought necessary to go to the expense
of an inquest. The remains will be
buried to-day. The deceased had nc
relatives in this part of the country
buc ii said to have connections ir
Baltimore , Maryland. His death it
another instance of the infallible re
suit of a long course of hard drinking
his habit probably having been ac
quired in the army and kept up eve
since.

A Fireman's Narrow Escape.
About noon to-day a fire'broke out
a the roof of the Antiquarian book
stow , on Farmm , near Twelfth street ,
atoning from a stovepipe which ran
clear up through the roof. An alarm
was rung from box 5 , and the engines
which were pumping on the
streets being already at hand ,
; ho hoae was merely un-
: ouplcd and the nozzle attached ,
and a stream was on. the fire at the
second tap of the ell. A small por-
; ion of the roof was damaged , not ex
ceeding $25 in value , and stock of
books injured to the extent of § 150.
e latter ia insured with Murphy &
Ciovett for $1,000. In run-
iiing to the Ore Asst. Chief
Ryley fell in trying to get on the
Hook and Ladder truck , and was
slightly bruised. He had a narrow
escape from serious iujury.
Chief Enainoer Galligan informs
us that by 0:00 : clcck this evening
every ciatern in the city will be full.
The department threw 13,500 barrels
of water on the big fire Tuesday night ,
since which time they have been con
stantly at work filling up the various
cisterns.
RATHER RAPID.
It is a remarkable fact thatmen will
suddenly become color blind on leav

Other parties will go and aelect

amount of money instead.
There you can find every style of
Celluloid Sets , which are sold as prices
guaranteed to be had nowhere else
lower. They have the finest line of

bought of a house pushed for ready
cash and sold extremely low. Do not

painted fans. lyory goods are being
closed out at cost to make room for
more artists' materials. Elegant
pocket goods very cheap.
As usual they have the largest and
finest line of perfumery in the city.
Remember vou will save time and
money by going directly to Kuhn'a
Drug Store , Fifteenth and Douglas.
Go early and have your choice , as
the presents are going rather rapidly.
