The Blonde Show , which waste
have performed at Turner Hall on
Saturday evening , WSB taken In hand
by th e cily matthal jutt before the
time for the curtain to risewho stated
that ho was instructed by the myor
to announce that there would T 9 no
show. The house was well filled , and
an editing scene followed , the audi
ence refosing to leave and the police
remaining in charge of the stage.
Wm. E Todd , sgent of the company ,
finally came in fr nt of the curtain
and ssid the cor. any was ready to
proceed , that the show was a perfectly
proper one , and that it depended up
on the audience to etate whether the
chow should go on. On Todd's re
turn ho was arrested and rather
roughly handled by the polica in get
ting him thrombi the hall. He waa
taken to jail and the company otcart-
ed to their hotel , while the lights
were put out and the audience forced
to leave with neither show nor money.
Todd was subsequently balled out by
Omiha men , who believed his arrest
Illegal.
The show tvxs stopped on the
ground that the theatre is not licens
ed , but the usual Sunday evening per
formance was carried on last evening
without interruption. Todd offered
the marshal whatever money waa
necessary to procure a license , pre
vious to going in front of the curtain ,
but-was refused. Ho was arraigned
yesterday on | a gcharga of inciting a
riot , bnt the owe wai continued to
Wedneaday at9 a. m. , Todd demand
ing a jury trial. The show left fci
Lincoln to day , where they will play
to-night , appearing to-morrow evening
at Nebraska City , and returning to
Omaha for Wednesday evening , when
they will make another attempt to ap
pear at Tarner hall.
DAMAGE SUITS.
Mr. Todd , the representative of the
company , has retained Col. Smythe ,
and brought suits for damages against
the city , aggregating five thousand
dollars , it being claimed that the action
of the police wa in egulsr and illegal
in every psrticnlar. The general
opinion of those who were present at
Turner hall Saturday evening , is that
the action of the city mirahil gave
good ground for such a suit. Certainly
it seems that even "the blondes" have
some rights which the law will pro
tect , and the public who wore out
their money , certainly have some
righte.

THE LAW OF f OECE ,
Criminal Suit Against a Whole
Farmine Neighbor
hood.
Several farmers in the neighborhood
of Elkhorn and "Valley precincts are
Implicated In a peculiar case , which
has been on trial for two or three
days at Attorney Hyde's office. The
facts arein brief as follows :
J. B. Crier owned a farm three
miles northwest of Valley , which was
sold by SheriflGuy under foreclosure
to Samuel Mitchell , of McArdle pro-
nnct , and Mitchell was put in posses-
lion. At that time tha farm was
growing a large crop of corn. Mitchell
mbsequently rented the place to a
nanjnamed Rathman , of Illinois , and
told him the corn four hundred
jushels which had been picked nnd
TRB in a crib oa the premises.
Crier learned the fact and last Mon-
lay ralllied a force of his neighbors
o the number cf thirty or forty men ,
frith fifteen teams , and carted away
ho entire crop of corn.
Immediately after Rathman and
Mitchell came to Omaha and filed a
somplaint before Justice Hycto against
, en of the parilep , whom they could re-
sognlze , charging them with grand lar-
tony. The parties claim that they
icted under the advica of J. L. "Web-
terEsq. , whom they consulted before
aking any steps. Two of the parties
lave been examined and held for trial ,
living bail.
Other arrests are expected to fol-
ow and an attempt is being made to
recover the corn.

ANOTHER ELVER EISE ,
Damage to the St. Paul and
Sioux City Railroad.
The measurement taken by the
signal service officers of the river yes
terday showed another rlso of the
Big Muddy , which was at one o'clock
one foot and seven inches higher than
at six o'clock last night. By Inquiry
at the office of the St. Paul and Sioux
City railroad it was ascertained that
this catne from the sudden rise in the
streams between Emerson and Cov-
ington. Tnese streams have overflown
the track of the railroad for almost
tha entire distance between these
points. Between Bincroft and Lyons
the track is pretty much uaJor water.
Ttiiefgraphic communication is cut off
by the conaeqacnt rise in the Mis-
aouri , the poles at Lyons being
washed cut , and it is impossible to
ascertain the exact amount of damage.
It ia known , however , that several
bad washouts hava occurred , one be
ing 1,000 foot long. No damage is
caused rolling stock and trains only
will be delayed. Tnoy are now run
ning regularly as far as Tekamah.

To the Editor of TDK BBX
A very learned , intelligent and sfiV
ble gentleman , who always holds him'
self in readiness , either with his pei
for the ute of the dally presser by his
known and self-appreciated oratory al
public meetings of every description ,
to endeavor to correct whatever he
may deem to be an error , and defend
the questions and propositions o :
right , has very recently "come t <
the front" voluntarily and undertake !
to prove that the Missouri rivei
deepens its bed. about seven inchei
annually , by asserting that "the Mia
souri river bed is some seventeen feet
lower than it was in 1850 , ' ' aad there
fore mint have been only about tvrc
feet seven inches in depth at that date
at Omaha , where nineteen feet sever
Inches ha ? been adopted as the higt
water mark , and the actual bed of thi
river about twenty foot below thai
mark consequently if the river bee
had sunk proportionately previous tc
1850 in 1844 there would have beer
no river bed whatever.
Supposing our eloquent and asaidu

the full proportions of the ostimatior
he has of his own important
for knowledge and great intellect
and at once ho will enter upon th <
most Interesting theme of 1m earlj
existencojiy informing the Intcrlo
cuter that from his constant effort it
the accumulation of information
through the instrumentality of the
press , in conversation whh his anclonl
companions , by'tho light of his ovri
long oxDorienoo in the valley , and
scientific knowledge of a civ 1 on
glneer of high authority , he
Is now enabled to inform tin
stranger that in the past history
of the Missouri it is a well authenti
cated fait that about the year 1844
none of the characteristics of thegreai
river existed , but from that date un
til the centennial ago of thorelatorthi
river has been forming and deepening
nntil it has cssnmed the formidable
proportions bafore them They have
no difficulty for a time in standing
"around the river front" upon the
brink of the vatery depths and
tumultuous chaain below them ,
nntil the flood suddenly approaches
their footing and they are compelled
to recede. "How do you reconcile tint
intrusion of the rushing torrents from
its great dopthl" inquires the stranger ,
to whom " : he devilish , s'y , typical old
settler , " feeling his ownimportanco in
eo momentous an interrogntoiy , and
relying upon hi * over ready ability
for any emergency , "conies jauntily
out from his sequestered shades iu
the background" and at once
"with a meriy twinkle in his ancient
eye , " says that was hut tha bejjin
ning , for in his youthful diys he had
eoen the river overflow the entire
valley , where ! \ hundred yeara &go
there was not a sign cf the moment
ous Missouri , but that it had deep
ened and wldecei to its present grand
proportions within the recollection of
his retentive and urorring memory.
That "little story fairly scalpj" the
other "exultant" anciouts , who re
tire , cogitating upon their Inability to
cope with the expansive intellect , ca
pacious talent and experience of so
noted a civil engineer , who very con
sequentially asserts thrt "the bed of
the Missouri river is lowered" about
half a foot every year , "which la the
natural result of the continued wash
of the underlying sands. " A valua
ble opinion , recorded in print , to be
handed down to future generationo

the ladles having charge and doing the
work , baing on the street car line.
As to 'the building itself and us
uses ; the people of Omaha know rery
well that the size of the building must
depend upon tha means bestowed.
The society hopes to find thosa means
inipla for tha construction of one
largo enough to combine , for the pre
sent , all the branches of charity
needed , viz.
A homo for the friendless , an in
dustrial horni with its seeing school ,
and a day ( nursery. ( By this day
nuraeiy the chi'drcn ' of the working
women are to ba fed and eared for
during the day , upon the payment of
a small sum daily. ) Here , also , will
be the distributing bureau of the aid
and relief , also a labor bureau.
The public must be aware that , to
accomplish any satisfactory results ,
we must have room and some conven
iences , and there are always families
which we t-xka care of who cannot
possibly take care of their own sick.
This , of course , calls upon us for
some hoepital work.
It is the purpose and hope of thli
lociety to be able to inaugurate a com
plete system of charities as rapidly as
means and rooms are furnished.
We wish it to ba diatinctly under-
itood that this society bestows its re
lief irrespective of rico or religion.
