Da\cnport G&retlc , April $ ,
Coroner Uawdon returned yestor-
dny morning from Walcott , ticnr
which place ho conducted an inquest
on the body of n suicide Monday
niijlit. The pniliculars of the case
are unusual , and the idea was proba
bly conceived from reading the no-
counts of the execution of Ilcilwagcn
in Rock Island n week ngo last Fri
day.Tho
The name of the victim was Voter
I'owlilz , n young man between 22 and
23 yearn of ai > c.wlio tin ) a brother and
sitter living in Davenport. His par
ents liavo boon dead for several years.
I'otor has lived with Adolpli Otto , a
farmer near Walcott , ior several
years , and so intimate has been the
rdlnthns between them that the young
man might do called Mr.Otto's adopt *
od son. For the last ton years Peter
haR worked on the farm of Mr. Otto ,
and during the last four years ho has
received ? 200 per year in addition to
his board.
The young man left the house of
his employer on Sunday noon , feeling
badly on account of the conduct of a
young lady ho know very well. lie
was in a melancholy frame of mind ,
and had been for weeks , though no
particular manifestations were noticed
either on that day or before. On
Monday forenoon the body of young
Powlitz was found on the farm about
half a milo from the house. It was
suspended from a fence post , The
rope used was between five and. six
feet in length , one-half inch in size.
From the condition in which the body
was found it appears that ho adjusted
the rope around hia neck while sitting
on the fence , and that done , hi
jumped off. IIo was resting on hi
knees , with the body inclining for
ward , so that the hands and elbows
touched the ground. Not satisfied
with the attempted hanging , whicl :
must havn failed in doing its work a :
quickly as wan intended , Powlit ? had
taken a piano bit , and with this cu *
his left wrist BO that it severed tin
radial artery , causing it to bleed
freely.
The fence was the ordinary live
board kind , about five foot from tin
ground to the upper eido of the top
board. On this ProwliU had scratched
od with a nail several words whicl
could not bo deciphered. On one o
the lower boards , written in the sam <
way , but plainer , was the sentenc
signed "P. P. : " "I cannot Hvo any
longer. " An examination of the sui
cido's person failed to shqw any letters
tors or property , or anything from
which a history of the man could be
gathered. Ho had taken off his boots
and hat , these being carefully placed
on the ground.
AMUSEMENTS.
Duproa and Benedict's Mlnstrols-
Jonn McCullough.
Last night Boyd's opera house was
crowded jam full to witness the ex
cellent performance given by Dupre/
& Benedict's well-know minstrels.
Negro minstrelsy seems to retain its
hold on Omaha theater-goers , judging
from last night's crowd. There ia
something of the same attractive
force in a minstrel show that
there is in a circus. People can go
and sco the oamn performance and
laugh at the same jokes dozens of
time ] , and go homo with the satis
faction that they have had their
money's worth. The art of negro
minstrelsy is purely American. The
camp-meeting hymsn , the plantation
song and dance , the gist and odd bita
of negro drollery and grotesque
humor , all belong exclusively to the
American negro.
When compared with Leavitt'a fine
company Uuprez it Benedict's fall
short , but are , nevertheless , as good
as the average. The female impersonators
senators are decidedly the worst fea
ture of the show. Kents dancing
however was vorjr good , Halestron'a
bad acting und singing may perhaps
- bo attributable to the pulveiizing ho
got yesterday afternoon at the hands
of an Omaha stalwart.
; The best men in the company are
Tom Wnrfield , who is a host , Archie
White and J. T. Gulick.
The company play in Council Blufl'a
to-night.
JOHN Mcu0ux > uan.
The eminent tragedian , Mr. John
McCullough , who is now riding BO
ronoly upon the very top wave ol
popular favor , will appear at Boyd'i
opera house next Wednesday ant

- and heroic tragic roles with which h
is identified as the forcmoat living
representative. Wednesday eveninf

BASE BALL.
A Preliminary Qumo In Lake's Add !
tion Next Saturday ,
The opening of the base ball season
ar
son will bo consummated next Hatur
rBO
day afternoon , in the game of basi
ball to bo played on that date be
010
twcon n picked nine each from tin
Union Pacific and Burlington fc Mis
Bouri Ilivor railroad headquarters.
It will bo remembered that las
season Uio two nines jopresontini
these corporations played several in
toresting matches , in which the U. P
used up their opponents pretty badly
in fact the luttor hardly kept their ri |
vula in good training. This season i
appears that the order of things is teas >
be reversed , The B , & M , nine ha
boon reinforced by the arrival of rev-
oral good players , and the Union Pa
cific has lost aerie of ita beat men.
The consequence in thatif thomatchcs.
are not moro oven the B. it M. will
have the advantage , and the public
may rest assured of seeing some fine
playing on both sides.
SHIFTING THE SHOPS.
Rumored Uomovnl of Worklngmon
to Balance tbo Political
Situation.
A few days ago the master me
chanics from the various points along
the line of the Union Pacific wore
summoned to Omaha to meet the
general officers of the road. This
call , at the time , occasioned consider
able speculation , and the cause of the
council waa a matter of general con
jecture.
It is rumored , and upon pretty re
liable authority , that the recent
demonstration of the workingmen has
alarmed the corporation oflicials , and
the subsequent result of the city elec
tion confirmed their fears. Sidney
Dillon , the president of the Union
Pacific , was in the city for a week
during the most exciting pe
riod following tno strike , and
it is said that lie declared that the
concentration of such largo numbers
of men at ono point was dangerous to
the interests of the road , and that
they ought to bo scattered along the
line and the now shops demanded by
the increasing business of the road
built at other points than Omaha.
It is now stated that the ofliciala
are taking preliminary stops toward
the carrying-out of this order , and
that the mooting of master mechanics
at this point was with a view to thai
end. The reports state that Denver
ia to havo'a lareo slice in this division ,
while North Platte , Grand Island ,
and other division headquarters , come
in for their share ot the spoils. The
recent departure of Assistant General
Manager Kimball for Denver , which
occurred since the meeting referred
to , would seem to indicate that the
rumors have some foundation , and it
is probably the desire to c fleet the di
vision before the fall elections take
placo.
CONFIDENCE GAME.
Arroat of Supposed Highway ROD-
bora Failure to Identify Tliom.
On Monday night three bold rob
beries wcro committed in Omaha , *
on the public streets , and last evening
two men were arrested on suspicion
of being implicated in the crime.
The first of those was do\io \ on Six
teenth street , where two parties hold
a man up , ono seizing him froin ; be
hind while the other wont through
a pockets , obtaining only thirty
cents in the transaction.
The second attempt , supposed to
have been committed by the same
men , occurred on Tenth street , in the
. Third ward , the victim having two
ton-dollar bills taken fromjliis person.
The third was upon an JMrvidual
who belonged to that numerous and
ubiquitioua individual a tramp , who
hadn't had a cent in his pocket Ior
ages. This was a dry haul , and so
diegusted the highwaymen that they
made no moro attempts that night.
The two parties who were robbed
first were confident that they coul
identify the men who wont throug
them , and accordingly oh the arros
of the parties alluded to they wer
sent for. On confronting the mo
they were unable to say positively
whether they were the right ones or
not in fact , the darkness and ex
citement had BO confused their ideas
as to the appearance of the highway
men that they could not toll any
thing about them. The two men
were discharged , as there was noth
ing upon which to hold them.
A BAD MAN.
,
Appearances Are Not Always Decelt-
flil. i
It will bo remembered that onTuoa-
day lust a man was arrested by Detec
tive Hazon on the suspicion of being
a burglar , having sold to Messrs.
Shroodor & Boot a couple of valuable
silver-plated speculums. The sus
pected man also carried a mysterious
and bad looking outfit , including
Htamps , koya , a couple of piocoa of
candle , etc. , the latter being the in
variable equipment of a burglar.
When the man was taken into the
< police court ho told a plausible story
about an involuntary exchange of
valises , in which ho was the
loser and was in accordance
therewith discharged. TUB 13 KI :
was the first to publish the derails oE
the arrest , and a copy of the paper
fell into the hands of Sheriff D. 0.
Cavanaugh , of Columbus , Platte
, county , Thia officer at once rccog-
ni/.ed the description as that of H rob
ber who had on Monday night broken
into the drug store of Dr. b. A. Bone-
Btoel , of hia place , and stolen some
valuable Hurgical instruments , Ho
had also left distinct traces of his
presence in the shape of numerous
splotches of candle grease. e
The sheriff at once determined to
como to Omaha and arrest his man , i
but on reaching this oity lost evening
learned that the bird had llown. Ho
will leave fur homo at noon to-day.
The prisoner was pretty active in dis
I- posing of his spoils , for ho committed
the robbery on Monday night , left
Columbua % t 'I a. in , on Tuesday on
the Denver express , arrived in Omaha
- at 735 ; , Bold hia goods at 9 a. m. , and
- ut 9 a. in. on Wednesday secured hw
release by a well told lio.
