ycatordny afternoon in the police
court. The prosecuting witnesa , ably
eocondod by the wjfo of the nccuaed ,
appeared , and not only watched the
proceedings with great interest , but
at intervals oren took a volco in it
herself.
Colonel Smytho , ono of the connsc'
for the d'fondant , testified that ho
had called at the houao trhoro the
prosecuting witness , Edith Griffin ,
and Mrs , Olomons lirod , Ho had
hoard the prosecuting witness deny
that Olomons had anything to do with
performing any illegal oporatiou on
her.

His Btory wont along smoothly oniingh
fti drawn oat by his attorneys , lie
was , ho said , tbo victim of a con
spiracy , originated and carried on'b
the woman who should bo n loving
and obedient wife to him. Ho had
married the woman because eho had
bgnilod him into it. Ho waa a man
of irreproachable character , and had
livud in this city for years. The
woman , vulgarly speaking , waa no
good , and in conjunction with two
other fonuloa , had lived during hio
nb.-onco a lifo not strictly in keeping
with matronly dignity. Ho stated
that ho had never boon familiar with
the prosecuting witness.
The cross-examination , conducted
by Mr , Burnham , put the cano in an
entirely different light. A verbosity
was suddenly noticed in demons'
statements and ho desired to explain
matters. His interests , carefully
watched by Col. Smytho , led the lat
ter tokeep bobbing to his foot almost
constantly in order to raisu sundry
objections to the questions propounded -
od to his client.
The witness had stated that ho
know a conspiracy had boon formed
against him by his wife fo blackmail
him. Ho was asked why ho had
takou Smytho and McOullough to the
fjirl to > have her statement made in
their presence , and ha auswored that
it waa on account o ! the schema of his
wife to "dorm him , " as ho expressed
't.
Ho was asked how ho know there
wai any plot against him and ho said
' ; hat hohadhoard hia wife and Edith
ilanulng it in the next room.
"Why did you have thin woman in
your houao ? ' asked Burnham.
"I couldn't help it , " answered Clem-
no ; "my wife brought her thOru ,
and I conldn't put her out. "
Biro. OlomoLi , who is anything bnt
a fiiio looking person , or ono who
would bcgullu a man of any force of
character , at this assertion from her
guardian husband , arose hastily from
her eoat boaido General O'Brien , ono
of her counsel , and in an excited man
ner exclaimed :
"I contradict that statement aa a
io. He knowu hotter "
By the combined t'llbrls of several
individuals the lady was roaoatod and
ho CAHU allowed to go on.
A latter was produced by Burn-
lam. Ho asked the witness of the
handwriting and signature was his.
The latter replied that ho did not
know. Ha had no recollection about
t , but finally admitted that the in-
tlols 0. L. 0 , wora his and that if ho
! iad written the letter it waa to his
wifo. It was attempted to bo proved
by the atato that the letter was
written by the prosecuting witneoi

defendant , nud that hu had naliud her

Wyman's ' Commercial
Oollege ,
A Pleeeant end Profltablo Ad-
drvee on ITducp.lionnl
Mattorofc ; > . Bv\
List evening HJV. A , F Shcrrill
delivered the fir t of a aoties of k-o *
turcs to bo given from tlmo to time
in Wyman'd lusinesn college upon
themes pcrtniuing directly or indi-
iotly to the mnltifarioui studies pur
sued there. Tim spacious college hail
was comfortably filled and quite a
numbur of lidicn graced iho audito *
rium with thuir presence.
After some remarks of an introduc
tory uatnro the lecturer described how
his first impressions of a commercial
college cud itn nature and use were
ruadu some fifteen years ago , when
living in his quiet native town. A
neighbor's son went to Eastman's
college at Poughkoopsio and ho could
distinctly recall how very much im
proved the young man was on his re
turn home , not alone in penmanship ,
which Is smell a desirable * accomplish
ment , but also iu general Information
and in manners , as well as hav
ing a practical knowledge of business
and of lifo. This young nan subse
quently entered a store , then a largo
bank , and , steadily advancing there ,
the last news ho had about him was
that ho was holding the most ; respon
sible position in the bank aud receiv
ing n largo salary. Such a fact this
is worth several mere theories about a
thing. Ho thought it was safe io say
that the city of Omaha had accepted
VVyman commercial college as one of
its permanent institutions , not rtith
any of that public celebration and
noise which la so npb to end in noise ,
bnt in a quiet , matte ? of fact way it
accepts and recognize it us a park of
its life and future. Tlioro is a feeling
growing tip every woelc , I am assured ,
that there is a place hsio for such an
institution and that thi one has oomo
to fill that place , and the present
manages with his general scope of
ideas , plans , furnishing * and facilities
is showing himself fully aqual to the
important position ho rocuples and
likely to- provide all that this
growinc : oity will , in the coming years
demand. Ho thought ho deserved to
know it , and ho supposed he did
know It , and he hoped he would know
it more aad more for the next quarter
of a century.
The lecturer did not know when or
where the fiist commercial college
arose. There ara several who claim to
be the first. At any rate they are
comparatively modern institutions
which caiuo up to moat the nacd of
tha times , aud are one of the illustra
tions cf this practical ago.
It is no secret that the first ones wuro
not perfect in all respects , and a suc
cessful business man ot thio-clty told
him that aa a young man , when ho
was seeking ( or a situation in New
York , he took care not to say that he
whs u gridaata of a commercial college -
logo , In those days there aiay have
boon faulta on both sides ; defects in
the college aud prejudice oa-tbo part
of the public. Bo tnat as it may , this
is a thing of the past. The com
mercial colleges contkmsd to
grow and extend for the raaoon that
the idea at the bottom was. good and
because there was an end which they
fitted io meet and especially because
they kept improving so that now , hav
ing largely outgrown the defects of in
experience , they have largely out
grown the popular prejuaica , from
which , they oaca a u ( To rod. They now
hold their nrciout place of general
confidence because they have earned
aud decorvod it andare , now to be
found in nearly every , or perhaps
every important oity of our union.
The students need not have any
misgivings about their future. Hu
wanted to give them confidence. That
was ono of the things ho catna down
therefor. This city is growing otoad-
ily and will continue to do so. In
ten or fifteen yearn it will go on to
sixty , seventy-five or one hundred
thousand people. MOD of cool calcu (
lation any so aud a gro.it bccinees will
be done hurt ) . It , has the geography
on ita side , also it has nnd will
have the ratttonds , and when
these two conditions are fulfilled
the real iu as certain as mathematics
Opportunities , therefore , good and
many , are put iu increasing number
before them. Ho had livud hero fif-
tonn years , and part of his business
had been to watch the rust of the pee
ple. Ho had never known n young
man of fair abilities and good hub ltd
who stuck to his business thnt fulled
in it , cud ho had hoard others make
iho Biimo renmk. The growth of the
city , the nyrupathy of the people arp
with him and help him on ,
and with their preparation
and their superior opportunities
opening before them thsy would not
( nil. They had a ( Uttering future if
they would here master the prepara
tory work , and form disciplined habltr ,
and then go out and give thuir mind
to business , and strictly obey its laws ,
suconis would crown their efforts.
The wonder of this age is the activ
ity and fertility of mind. The brain
of America fa largo and fertile , it is
keen , and ceaselessly at work. It is
very busy , what is there that is not
being done and produced , whether a
gigantic railway system or beautiful art
iu Obrlstmas cards. It Is a great
privilcgo to live in this ago. Sach
au ago was never known in the past.
The demand , therefore , upon the
coming generation will bo very grout.
Il&pplty excellent opportunities for
preparation are being afforded and
tho4o who read the signs of the times
and uvail themselves in youth of
these opportunities and , as David
LlvingsUno said , "learn how to in a
your hands , " how to raako every
ouuca of themtolvos useful and facile ,
will bo the ones that will hn heard
of by aid by.
There is no luck now-a-days. Re
cently a f cicnd showed the lecturer
over hia establishment , a wonderful
growth of ton yaars , and said to him ,
"there is no secret about it , I know
how cv..ry inchof it oimo tobehoro just
ai it is , I have studied and worked
day and night. " The reason many do
not make better bucceta is that they
do not osrly hnre higher ideas and
larger rtrabition. Too many are willing
to follow the limited routine of well
learned duties , nnd so llvo in and fill
a very small epaco in the
world , No ono is properly
educed < vho studies only along his
own line : no one is a well informed
man who ia only informed in his
special department. DoWittTftlmace
B id to r n assembly of young men , if
ycu want better positions read your
selves into them. Five years ipontln
good readiuj , ' would give them in
est I mablo capital ,
The speaker hid taken especial in
to-cBt in observing the proscneo of
young ladies in this college. Fifteen
or twonly years ago their attendance
would have baon regarded as very
questionable by most and wholly to bo
condemned by many as somothiug un
fitting to the Mi sex. But th
world moves and some cf us try to
move with it. Now , nearly all the
work which woman do ia open to
women , and rightly , nnd what is more ,
at equal pay , hich ia also right. Hu
bellved that iu this respect this city
has a very good nnmo. It is far
more honorable and becoming for a
young woman to employ her time
and her God-given faculties in sotno
usofnl and remunerative work than
to paw largo parlion of her time in
reading silly books or gossip , or
showy proinonading upon the streets
to sopport herself rather than live
upon the- hard earned wages of father
or brother.
Mr. Sherrill concluded his lortnre
with a graphic description of the
bright possibilities in store for : ho
youth of America , and earnestly im
pressed upon thorn the importance
of forming habits of industry sad
perseverance. The lecturer waa lio-
toned to witb marked attention frora
beginning to end and at the end was
greeted with enthusiastic applauao.
Miss Julia Hardenboig , of t Lie-
city , terminated the exorcises by Riv
ing a very boitntiful reading , for which
she received a Trail merited encore.
