DUE CRIMINAL COLLATION
George H. Moses Accused of
Shooting With Intent
to Kill.
Another Attempted Confidence
Game.
George H. MOSM , a youn man employed -
ployed the Willow Springs malt house ,
was arrested yesterday J by Officer
Vanons , at his work and arraigned be
fore Judge Hawes at 9 o'clock on the
charge of shooting with Intent to kill.
Moses it appears went into the
saloon kept by John Loclutroin , cor
ner of Pacific and Sixth streets , early
last evening , where he fouud a party
engaged in playing card ; . Soon after
his entrance a disturbance arose and
the proprietor undertook to fire Moses
out , after his refusing to go peaceably.
Mose : resisted and in the Bcufflawhich
ensued was thrown down on the floor
by Lechstrom , who proceeded
to punish him in the usu
al style. At this June'ure ' Moaes
drew a small , five barrel , 22 calibre
revolver and fired three shots into
his opponent , one of whicb passed
through the muscles of the abdomen
and lodged inside near the hip bone.
A second cut a gash in the neck and
lodged in tbe coiling , while the thir *
struck the front of the projection
formed by the thyroid cartllege in the
neck , which it cluttered and passing
through the neck Ldgfd iuside.
Lechstrom , loomed up then , being
treble leaded , and took the revolver
away from his antagonist , who escap
ing his grasp "vamoosed the ranch. "
Dr. Mercer who was summoned to
attend the wounded man found him
standing behind the bar and still able
to drink a glass of beer. Ho ace > m-
paniod him horns where the wounds
were attended to. The bullet which
lodged in the hip was extracted but
tbe other was not and from this wound
the greatest danger is to be feared.
He was in much better condition this
morning than was expected and being
well taken care of may recover. He Is
a young man of about thirty-five years
large and fleshy. He is unmarried
and lives with a sister who keeps house
for him
Although the police were notified
Wednesday.ifoses kept out of the way
until he was arrested at his work BB
stated. He was refused ball and wi B
committed to jail to await the result
of the wounded man's injuries.
"FOILED ! FOILED ! "
Another attempt at a confidence
game was Wednesday afternoon made
at the U. P. depot , but sa in the in
stance of Mr. Frank was defeated. A
young felloT about twenty years of
age WAS waiting to take the evening
train for Lincolnwhen he WfS accosted
by a party who inquired if he
was bound for the capital. He replied
that Le was , and was then asked by
the party to come over to 'he freight
depot with him , as he would liki to
get him to help load eomo goods for
him. Their boy said he was tired
and didn't want to work and hadn't
time either. He was then asked to
go over as a matter of favor ,
which favor ho luckily de
clined to grant. About this
time Marshal Westordahl and Wiley
Dixon came up to whom the boy told
his fitory and then went with the mar
shal to arrest the man but nas unable
to find him. It is said that the follow
has been hanging around the depot for
everal days representing that he was
the runner for one of our hotels and
he is cossib'.y the came mnn who tried
to play the old game on Mr. Frank

WELL HEALED ,
The Opera House Pharmacy
and Its Owners.
A brick and brown stone building
with three masiive plate ghes windows
has just been completed on Fifteenth
street , between Farnham and Dong-
las. Located on 15th street , one door
north of Boyd's Opera House , now In
course -of [ erection , Schroter & Becht
have just opened here tbe finest retail
drug store , for Its size , in the whole
western country , and a better location
would be bard to find , in fact when
Boyd's Opera House Is complotodj
we venture the prediction that thia
will be one of the most popular drug
and toilet esfab'ishments in Omaha.
The interior has been fitted up with
consumate skill and refined taste.
Stevenson & Co. , cabinet makers , and
Hosiers , the w ll known painter , de
serve great credit for the manner in
which they have executed the work
entrusted to them. The stock was
purchased through the popular and
well known M.ij > r Carl Schmidt , agout
for Porte 0. Wheeler , of Peoria , 111. ,
the proprietor ot one of the largest
wholesale drug houses weat of
New York and an extensive importer
of chemicals , toilet articles , etc.
The senior member of the firm of
Schroter & Becht is well known to al
most every one in this city us the head
clerk for J. K. Ishwhose three stores
at one time done almost the entire
drug business of thia city. Mr. Schro-
tor was educated in Europe , is master
of German , French and Euglish ; Is
thoroughly familiar with both of the
dead languages and is especially well-
versed m Latin , the French'codo and
all the peculiar loaruing of the phar
maceutist. He has been .actively en
gaged in the drug business for 18 years ,
and has lone ; been known as the man
who could pat up properly and
promptly any prescription brought to
htm.
htm.Mr.
Mr. Becht , the junior member , has
also been with J. K. Is'i for nearly
three years , and previous to that time
was in one of the largest drug houses
in Peoria , 111. He is a young man
with a thousand frlendi , a liberal pro
fessional education aud everything
that could insure success in business.
We predict that the new firm will
establish a trade that will crow
into prominence and importance ae
oar fast growing city develops ,
They will ha\o undoubtedly from
the start a very extensive prescription
business , their stock having been se
lected with special reference thereto ,
and the second story of their building
being exclusively occupied by physi
cians. Drs. Paul , Grossmen and W.
N Linyon have fitted up elegant
offices orer the uru * store.
One important item in the drug
business and one not generally thought
of by the purchaser , is the necersity
for fresh drugs. Here everything is
right from the laboratory of the man
ufacturer , with no goods injured
through dampness , heat , cild , time
or any unfavorable conditions , ind
the Btuck has in it all of the latest dia-
covuriisa recently added to the phar-
macopla.
In speaking of thu liuildiug wo
should have mentioned that C. F.
DriBcoll was the architect rnd wo think
It one of the best of its class thai oui
city can boast The number it 211
aouih 15th street , and your reporter
would advise every one interested in
the growth of our city to piy a visit
to this elegant store and just for the
sake of helping along a new firm thef
mlgbt buy something before leaving.
In Earnest. A Permanent Mooting

AW EVASIVE EVANGELIST.
Mr. Moody Writes That He
Can't Oome to Omaha ,
Though Much Ee'd
Like to.
Our readers will remember that on
leaving Omaha , several months ago ,
aftur a gratifying reception being ten
dered him here , Mr. D. L. Moody , the
Evangelist , expressed a desire to re
turn in the spring and hold a series
of meetings here , as he thought the
field a good one , and ripe for the har
vest.
vest.About two or three weeks ago the
officers of the Y. M. C. A. prepared
a written invitation to be forwarded
to him at San Francisco , which was
signed by all the ministers in the city
and by the president and general sec
retary of the Y. M. C. A.
By this a cordial invitation was ex
tended to Messrs. Moody and Sankey
to come and conduct a series of meet-
lugs hero at a time to be fixed by
themselves. The reply was received
by Mr. Geo. T. Howser yesterday ,
and wa * as folio ITS :
SAN FRANCISCO , Feb. 3rd , 1881.
DEAK SIR AND BEOTHER : Your
letter of January 28th with invitation
of the ministers and others of your
city , to visit Omaha is at hand. In
renly would pay that wo are in the
midst of oar work here and cannot
tell how much longer it will require
our presence.
Again my presant plan , so fer as is
formed , is to go home by a route that
will not bring mo near Omaha.
It recognlzethe claim of the field and
its Importance , as well aa the unani
mity of the call that is extended , but
do not see my way clear to accept it.
At some future time the way may be
open for me to visit Omaha , but for
the present I cannot promise to do so.
With much interest in the Lord's
work In your city I am truly yours

tary of state to Mr. Correll , chairman
of the committee on printing , in an
swer to the house resolution introduC'
ed by Mr. Slocumb , of Jefferson.
This resolution directed the ci nimit-
tee to learn why so muoh space and
paper was required in printing the
house bills , and if the printed matter
could not be condensed to less space.
This communication was supplemented
by a note from the printer , both oi
which held that the bills of the present
session were printed after a styla
which had prevailed since the intro
duction of the atato into the Union ,
and that the contract figures were
based upon this form , The contractor
would be pleased to confer with the
house committee , to make any com
promise or change desired. The mat
ter was referred to the committee.
The railroad committee reported
that it had decided to make no d 'finite
report until all the bills had been re
ferred to tbo committee.

to provide for the publication of a
compilation of the statutes , came up
for passage.
Messrs. Case , of Clay , Hoatettor , of
Merrick , and Moore , of York , all op
posed the bill , and asserted that the
book could be published for half the
money that the bill allowed the
librarian tor each book.
The ayes and nays were called for
and when the vote was about to be
announced , Mr. Howe , of Nomaha ,
moved that the bill be referred to the
committee on enrolled and engrossed
bills , as 17 members were absent.
Mr. Slocumb , cf Jefferson , amended
the motion by having the bill re
ferred back to the committee. Car
ried.

oxprcfsly ex'mptod by law , and offi
cers of the United States shall be sub

Whedon kindly withdrew hl < cruel
motion. T : e debate on chis hill took

many darts of ridicule were shot at it.
Mr. Uase , of Ctay , mnved thit the
