THE NEW BANK.
They Open Up in Oood Style nt Thol :
Now Corner.
The Nebraska National bank ha

nam street ] , and already business has
assumed proportions to demonstrat
the fact that there was an ample lieli
for the now enterprise.
The old Brash block , which was

over into a form so neat as to bo
almost as good as now ; the outsidoanc
the interior tastefully painted , and the
inside of the counting room dividec
up conveniently by partitions and fitted -
ted out with handsome cabinet desks.
A strong and fire-proof brick vaull
has also been built in the center of the
room , and the facilities for transacting
a' first class banking business may bt
said to be complete.
Mr. Henry \V. Yates , the cashier
and Kent K. Hayden , the paying tcl
lor , are both kept busy at their respective
spoctivo posts. When the now anc
costly building is complete the bank
will bo as well quartered and manned
as perfectly as any in the wcat.
A CRANK.
A Drowning Sensation Which Did
Not/ Pan Out.
The midnight hour Monday saw
sensational scone at the corner of 10th
and Farnam streets , where a stranger
who gave the name of G. F. Summers ,
and claimed to be a lawyer from Mar-
shaltown , Iowa , told a peculiar story
of the loss of his partner , named
Craig , with whom he was travelling to
Dakota to buy land ,
According to this story the partner ,
Craig had wandered by the river side
and lost a pocket-book containing
$100 , after which he had gone to
search for it , fallen into the raging
Missouri and drowned. There was
considerable harrowing detail to the.
narrative and the oliicers , suspecting
foul play , locked the excited individ
ual up in the city jail over night.
Yesterday the alleged corpse ,
Mr. Oraig , called at the jail , reported
that ho saw by the morning papsra
that he was drowned , and asked to
ee Summers , The latter on being
confronted by his lost friend ex
claimed , "Is this a ghost that Iseo
before mo ? " but it was explained that
ho saw genuine llesh and blood. Mr.
Mr. Craig stated that the unfortunate
man was a little off in his mind , and
asked permission to take him away ,
promising to take carp ot him. The
judge gave his permission , and the
county was relieved of a boarder and
the necessity of dragging the river
Avoided.
V. S. COURT.
A. Special Venire Issued for Grand
Jurymen.
The U. S. courts were in session

: ourt two or three demurrers were
irguod , and some other routine bus-
ueasof no particular importance trans
acted. ,
The judges afterward sat in cham
bers below for the purpose of cmpan-
rolling the grand jury. Seven of the
members were absent and ono was ox-
: used , leaving a vacancy of one-third
the quota to bo filled. This was done
by issuing a special venire for the re
quired number , and will probably
cause a delay of two or three days in
the proceedings. Although the petit
jury will bo empanncllod on Thursday
it is likely that but little will bo done

RIVER ROBBERY ,
A Passenger has His Pockets Picked
While Crossing the Bridge.
A party named James Garland was
robbed on U. P. train No. 3 yester
day while crossing the bridge , Coun
cil Bluffs to Oro.aha , about 12 o'clock.
Uo had purchased a ticket at the
Council Blufls transfer depot for Ft.
Collins , Colo. , and had put it in his
pocketbook , which also contained
about $ -10 in cash. Shortly after
boarding the train ho wont to the
smoking car , and finding it
full he started to go into another
car. As he reached the door
ho was mot by two men who were
entering the car , and two men who
had followed him , thus creating a
momentary jam at the .door. lie
subsequently remembered having felt
something give way in his pants
pocket , and of course after discover
ing his loss , knew just when the rob
bery was committed. The stolen
pocketbook contained all the money
ho had. Ho applied at the general
office for relief , and arrangements
were made to eend him through to his
destination.
It is thought thai only two of the
men spoken of above are the thieves ,
whom Mr. Garland could not identify
if lie should see them. They are
probably professionals from Chicago ,
who work the unwary passengers
wherever they fiud them ,
ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.
A Man Named Collins Who
Wanted to Go to Sleep.
A Gnlltm of Emotion Sent Into His
Stcmnoli to Offset nn Onnco of
Iinudnnttm ,
About 8 o'clock last evening n ma
named Collins , about thirty yean
old , who had boon employed in th
U. P. shops , under Foreman Brown
but who was discharged n few day
since , walked into Boll's drug store
near the depot , with a vial in hi
hand and asked for an ounce of laud
anuin , saying ho was in the habit o
taking small doses for sleeplessness
and ae ho was about going off on th
cars ho would want sulliciont to las
him. Ho was given the desire
quantity , which ho paid for and do
parted. As soon as ho reached the
crossing ho drank the .contents of tl.o
vial and throw it away. The nigh
watchman happened to sea him and
picked up the bottle and
saw it was labeled laudanum.
Uo grabbed Collins at once , and
with the assistance of an officer who
arrived about that time , waltzed hin
back to the drug store , where ho nc
knowledgcd ho had taken the poison.
They poured about a gallon-of emetic
into him and then took him into the
back yard and walked him up and
down for n quarter of an hour , deter
mined not to allow him to go to sloop.
They talked to him and they pounded
him , and when the officers got tired
they wcro readily reliovcd. Collins
had then vomited but little and the
druggists and physicians wcro afraid
they would have a cadaver for the
coroner. A messenger had been sent
for a doctor , bill none could bo found.
Brown , Collins' boss , happened to
pass the store , and on being told the
cause of the racket , took possession of
the would-bo suicide. A carriage was
called and the man dumped in and
carried off , nobody last night know
whore. It was the opinion of those
connected with the affair , that unless
Collins had prompt and radical treat
inont he would die. Mr. Boll , how
ever , had great faith in the gallon of
emetics , and believed Collins would
bo all right to-day with the exception
of a very sick stomach ,
