WALSH'S WRESTtE.
'bo Plea In Abatement Thoroughly
i Before tbo Court ,
The case of the slate va. President
Vnlah came up in the district court
oaterday on the plea in abate-
lent filed Thursday by the defense.
The argument was taken up at the
poning hour and concluded about
eon , Hon. John 0. Cowin speaking
it the defense and Prosecuting At-
> rnoy Burnliam and Charlie Green
> r the state.
Testimony as to the occurrences
Inch were alleged to have taken
lace in the jury room was heard , the
itnossos being James E. Boyd , E. V.
mith nnd Charles Green. The faots
ore not materially different from
hat wan alleged.
In the examination of Mr , Greene
o teatified that ho had been op.
ointed deputy prosecutor by Mr.
lurnham , und had taken the oath of
Qlco , being thereby entitled to bo
resent in the grand jury during the
ivoatigations.
In response to the question by Mr.
owiu if hia appointment waa not
erely for the U. P. copper cases , Mr.
roon swore that he waa appointed
dopu'y prosecutor for the whole term ,
"Then/1 said Mr. Oowin , "if you
wore sworn to look after the statoV
interests for the tarm , nnd wore in
all respects the tame ns Mr , Burnhnm
for the timOj does it not sneni u little
singular that you should hare con
ducted the defense in several criminal
cases ? "
This was n point thnt was unan
swerable. The defense in the Walsh
case also elicited the fact that Mr.
Green was the paid attorney of the B.
& M. road.
At the conclusion of the argument
the court took thu matter under ad
visement.

Great .Slaughter ol Wild Fowl on the

A largo express wagon loaded with
ducks and g.'eao rolled up Farnam

and stopped in front of Saxo'a Opera
House pharmacy. Anxious to know
whether the enterprising proprietor
proposed to embark in the commis

pod into the store and learned that
the game was the result of a thrco
days' hunt by Mr. Hollis Hoglo , head
clerk of Mr. Saxo's cstablishmant nnd

SERIOUS ACOIDEN1.
Ed , Kaufhmnn Falls from tile Horse
and Droaks Hia liogr.
A serious accident occurred to Mr.
Ed Kaufmnnn , the well-known Tenth
treot barber , about 1 p. m. yesterday ,
Mr. Kiuifinann waa mounting upon'
lis horse , intending to ride home to
dinner , when the animal was frighten-
d nt something and jumped. Mr.
vaufmann was thrown off , nnd
dragged for a short distance. Ono
foot caught in the stirrup in such a
way as to break the ankle.
Surgical attendance was imme
diately summoned , and the injured
man made as comfortable as poss'blc ,
after which ho was taken to his home
at Tenth and Hickory streets in a car
riage. The accident is of u peculiarly
unfortunate nature , aa Mr. Kaufmann
was married only a few days ago , and
the honeymoon is unpleasantly broken
in upon.
NORTH SCHOOL.
Olosiner Exorcises A Lively Juvenile
Entertainment ,
Yesterday afternoon the scholars of
the North School Rave their closing
oxerciscs before a select and apprecia
tive audience , and the teachers do-
lorvo great crodit-for the paina they
must have taken to train the children
to such a high state of proficiency.
The entire programme was gotten
up with considerable care , and the
pupils evinced , with few exceptions ,
remarkable vocal and elocutionary
ibility.
Juliette W. McKoon recited "Tho
3ong of the Shirt" very effectively
nd Leonora Smith gave an excellent
rendition of " ' "
"Nobody's Child.
Mablo Fonda" recitation of "Poor
EIouso Nan" was highly commendable.
Notwithstanding that this pathetic
itory is of considerable length she
went through it without a break.
L'his little lady also displayed no little
irtistio talent in the shape of some
lecorations she had gotten up for
his occasion.
Harry Staloy created much merri
nent by his funny recital of "Dot
ambs vet Mary haf got. " "Beautiful
jnow" was very prettily recited by
[ da Miller , and Florence French's
'Curfew must not ring to-night" was
L thorough success.
Louis Asidey gave very effectively ,
'Coin' homo Tuesday , " and Minnie
Jwartzlander told about being
'Snow Bound" in a very
inarming manner. Nellie Willott
' ' ' " ' c
; ave 'Somebody's mother" very
lathotically , nnd Lizzie Richardson
; ot through "Pap k'a Letter" admira-
ily. "Tho Old Mm in the Stylish
Jhurch , " by Louis Casidy , "Tho
funny Shopkeeper , " by Carrie Nick-
ill , nnd "la there Room in Angel
jand ? " by Augusta Stratman , were
.11 very commendable performances.
The performances given .by the very
nfantilo scholars deserve n word of
: ofnmondation. Sadie Donahoo.alittlo
ivo year old , gave in n very pleasing
vay "Soft , Soft , " and Selnm Tullen'a
laivo recital of "Once there was a
iltlo Kitty , " was excellent. Perhaps
he best performance rendered by this
: lnas was Lulu Smith's "Annabel Mo-
Jarty ,
The personation of different trades
y eleven smart little boys , was also
i very attractive feature. The gym-
instio exorcises proved quite a
ively performance. The whole
ff'iir waa a decided success ,
nd Prof J. B. Brunor and his efli-
lent staff of teachers may be compli
mented on the able manner in which
hey have trained their little pupila.
At the conclusion of the exercises
'rof. Brunor and several gentlemen
elivorod some short addresses , in
hich they give the children some ox-
client advice.

A STRANGE STORY ,
Mysterious Attempt Upon the
Lifo of the New Colonel
of the Ninth Infantry ,
Journeying Thirty-Six Hours In nn
Almost Dying Condition.
General Jnmea Van Voast , colono !
commanding the Ninth United States
infantry , with headquarters at Fort
Omalm , was promoted to that position
about four weeks ngo , to fill the va
cancy caused by the retirement oi
Colonel King , until that , time com
mandant of iho Ninth rogimunl.
At the time of his appointment ho
was stationed in Texas , but receiving
orders to join his regiment in Ne
braska , ho left on thu llth of March
for his no station. It was on this
journey that ho received the injuries
recounted below. The nowa was nt
first that ho had been thrown from
the train and dragged. Prom this
report it would look as if foul play
may have been attempted. Thott > ry
ns condensed from an exchangers as
04
t \ \
follows :
Q n , Van Voaat sot cut from his
post by a stage which loft at midnight
for the nearest railway station
Abilene , Toxas. Ho found in the
stage , as u traveling companion , on
extra driver , or a man claiming to bo
such , whoso appearance ho did not
like. A iii-Rro subsequently ontorinp ,
Qen. Van Vonst climbed to the boot
of the stoRe and took a teat with the
driver. Fort Concha was reached
shortly after daylight , and soon after
leaving it the driver , by whom ho sat ,
cried , as the horses dashed rapidly
down a declovity , "You will fall "
Thus far , and thus f r only , can and
doca the genuril himself toll the story ,
for then consciousness for a lonir time
censed , and when ho nwoktt partially
to his 80H808 ngAin ho was told that ho
had been thrown oif by a runaway
team and dragged by the horses1.
Wednesday , March 15 last , Mrs.
Van Voast received a telegram from
St. Louis , purporting to como from
her husband , saying ho would bo with
her on Thursday. She accordingly
sent the family carriage and the coach
man Jim io meet the train. When it
arrived Jim waited in vain for the
general , and after all other passengers
had come from the cars , ontitred them
to look for his employer. Ho was in
time to hear a railroad employe say :
"Here , old man , get out , or we'll car
ry you back. " Attracted by a bundle ,
around which was tied the variegated
cord from an army officer's hat Jim
looked closer , and through blood and
dirt and horrible bruises , recognized
Col. Van Voast , who feebly whisper
ing that ho was almost dead , and for
them to take him in the back way so os
not to startle his wife , was carried by
three men to his carriage and driven
homo. Dr. Fithian , the family phy-
ician , and Dr. Brocks , of the army ,
were summoned and found a shocking
state of affairs. The patient was
sonii- unconscious from brain injury ,
and all but speechless. The lower
left jaw was broken , the throat fright
fully congested , as from strangulation ,
the palate swollen to the size of a
hen's egg , the tonsils black , the eyas
protruding trom their sockets until
the conjunctiva hung far over thu
Durnea. With all this injury to the
( load , the entire body did not show
the slightest bruise auch as would
surely have followed dragging , but on
bis person was found a certificate
iigned "on honor" by George Wash
ington , post "trader at Abilene , Texas ,
; hut Gen , Van Voaat had been brought
; o that station unconscious from hu7-
ng been dragged , as it was reported
; o him , 30 yards by runaway horses ,
md remained unconscious 14 hours ,
md had then boon put on the trainer
or home by himself and the tele-
; raph operators.
The anxiety of General Van
foaat , injured while on route
rom ono duty -to another , to get to
us homo , alee on route , as construe-
ivoly to a hospital , can bo imagined ;
Uo , his Bending an unalarming tele-
; ram from St. Louis , but how an oili
er of his rank so injured was allowed
0 make the thirty-six hours' journey
lone , unattended , his clothes even
incleaned , oasses comprehension. It
1 difficult to conceive the officers of
lie train even overlooking his condi-
ion , or oven BO vigorous a soldkr as
lie gonoial surviving the trip. Many
f these things ho may doubtless be
bio to clear up when he recovers his
peech-lost altogether for several
ays since his return and mind ,
ut theio will remain still uncleared
wny , at least until further
iitil further investigation , Iho fearful
ispicioa that it was the blow of a
isso that so suddenly stunned him enID
ID stago'a roof , and which put him
ito thu condition of a man who has
eon hanged and cut down before life
as fxtmct. To add to the mystery
ia watch was dangling from his vest ,
nd his pocket book seemingly
itact when ho reached homo
lough ho may have loft the fort with
bhor moneys , and the smaller sum *
lay have been loft as a blind. Boull
lie as it mtty , allowing the story of
10 plage drivers who brought him
ito Abilene to bo true , Iho journey
ir thirty-six hours , in such a condi-
on , unchallenged by anyperbonand ,
moricun soldior-hko , refusing to
minima or ask aid , will remain ono
' the most remarkable stories of the
The Grooms Caso.
At a late hour Thursday the jury
the Grooms case , having been un-
ile to agree , reported that one of
leir number was sick. They were
loreupon discharged by the court.
is understood that the jury stood
ven for acquittal and five for con-
otion. It is considered by many
at a conviction had become impos-
bio , and that the prosecution , to II
oid losing prestige , lock this pro-
it for averting a verdict of acquittal
even a disagreement ,
iesterday the court announced
at the matter of bail in the case
juld bo left entirely with the dia-
iot attorney and it is probable that
will bo reduced to u nominal sum
id the release of the prisoner so
red.
The regular panel of jurors was
sterday excused until Monday ,
licit indicates that the subject of the
> t trials will reat until that time.
"RICHELIEU. "
Thomas W Keetut in Bulwei
Lytlou'a
A Flnttenns Receotlon to the
Star of the Tragic School.
It is certainly a fluttering tribute tt
Mr. Koeno's power as an actor ane
also to the drnimtic taste of our citi
zens , that after a series of excelled
entertainments such as have of late
boon given ut the opera house , st
largo and roprrccntativo an audience
could b assembled lo see oveh on !
who is'a9miUed urbo among tlio GeTt
tragedians of tin ! present dny.Q
The old acImTfurs ot Mr. Keene ,
w ith others who miidu up the large
audience which greeted him at Boyd'a
opera house last night , evinced from
the first appearance of the actor
on the stage an interest
which gradually warmed into enthusi
asm as the play progressed. On his
appearance hero a year ago Keene wus
laboring under the disadvantage of
a poor support , but the company with
him to-day deserves no such censure ,
in fact it is almost without exception
first class , and this fact added
to the general effect of the
performance. 'Jho tragedian hn-
self has become easier , moro grace
ful , and ho has evidently a far deeper
insight into each of the characters ho
port ia > a than ho had on his last ap
pearance hero. The delicacy in treat
ment , by which art conceals art. Mr.
Keene is rapidly getting , and no
stronger prool of this could bo needed
than in his acting in some of
the earlier scenes of "llicho-
lieu. " His "Ilijhelieu" is the ca
dinul that Forrest gave tli
American stage. It is grandly au
teru and yet tenderly romantic , soltdl ,
founded in the rupoao of the philoso
pher , yet fiery in the knightly vuloro
yyuth ; lovingly human and Munsitiv
to every eir oiion of joy and grief i
the commun lot of mankind an idea
of powerful goodness protecting th
weakness and innocence of uusuultec
virtue. Glittering in its spirit an
magnetic in its power it carries wit ) :
it the afl'dutionof human hearts.
It took Forrest years to build ,
and fill out with all its details thu
Richelieu which critics long ugo se
up as the standard of Richulioua
I rom which thu production of th
character is now judged. Keene ha
made a remarkable character of it in
two years ot study. ' He has th
iruo conception of thu clmiacter ,
acking only , if in anything , 11 :
; ho power ot subtlety in thu first three
icts. The crafty cardinal minister i
iho persomige pi us tin before the audi
; or in all his cunning and power dur
ng the later parts ot the play. As a
ustorical production thu virtues pra
lentcd in llicholieu are the work u
liulwer and not of the actor. Keeni
nterprets the ideas of the play writer
md not the truth of history. This is
tecessary for stage etlect , and
t is presented with tollh > D
sffect. The beauty of language i
wrought out in its utmost strength ii :
ivery period and accompanied by the
icsessary faithfulness of physical ac-
: ompammcnt in every climax. If the
luccoss of the writer was one of the
; randest of human achievements in
iterary effect , ao is the interpretation
; ivou bj the actor in a dramatic sense.
\s every student knows , the play
s a great theatrical achievement ,
ind in a production such as was
Tituessed last night , the student of
listory has an aid which is rarely seen
in the dramatic stage. The "De Bar-
idas" of Leai-oc and the "Do Mau-
> rat" of Lloyd wore fine presentations
if the auxiliary parts of the play ,
fliile "Louis " the weak and
, as , pli-
.ble hin < r , Hunter Smith jjavo a very
i editable performance in fact , mak-
ug of the part all that is required by
ho author.
