OMAHA'S FIREMEN.
Wnnt the Department Needs to 1
crouBO Its Efficiency.
An old fireman who haa been vis
ing Omaha thus criticises the wo
done at the recent big blazo. I
thinks the chief a good man , but u
oxporlencod Bufliclontly In fire mt
tors. Ho Bays It was unwise to thrc
streams from the o itsi.de , especial
whore the building is divided in
rooms. The chief was nnwlso
directing streams where they came
contact with a network of telcgra ]
wires , as that cuts the stream in
apray , weakens Ita force , otc Towar
1 the close tf the fito the work w
needlessly slow , While the fire w
confided between the floor and t
colling "and the joists , n stream v

separately. It would have boon bi
ter to take the hooka and rip off t
plastering andlatha , leaving the joli
'
exposed and thtn'atrlUIng a largo at

A defect In the organization of t

Mr. Bonner aeems to think that h

twenty members of the Method
church have been summoned and t
case promises to unearth rottonn <
equal to that which existed in Do
mark.
Members of the Firat M. 1C. chur
are much chagrined over the case a :
those who have boon aeon are ve
reticent with regard to it.
Mrs. Bonner'a card oa it waa pi
pared for publication la hero public
ed. It showa that she has faith In h
husband's assertion and that ho bei :
susceptible waa easily led from t
path of virtue. If it bo trne she h
certainly Buffered a great deal. S
says that Mra. Ward followed h
husband constantly and when ho w
keeping a meat market she visited t
shop frequently , so often in fact th
it became noticed. Mra. Bonner ci
led on Mr. M. G. McKoon and J.
McLUn , and they requested Mi
Ward to get her meat somewhere eli
The following is the cnrd :
jQAbout eleven yeata ago I cilled i
ray sister , Mrs. Ward , from 9 o'clc
until noon , entreating her not to 1
vita or entice my husband to her houi
as ho Is easily Influenced for good
bj\d , but she steadfastly related to
so , asIng she would invite him alls
pleased. I told hot then she would
aorry were it not for ton years ; a :
she acted aa though flho had me
right to my husband's elections tb
myself , and from that time until t
last three months has been constant
running after him , spending hot
with him when in business with 1
Guy , and while ho waa posting 1
books she would sit at hla ait
I called in J. J. McLaln a
M , G , MoKoon and they drnli
ho ehonld get her meat somewhere
else , which she did , but waa constantly -
ly at the market the aame ; would
meet him at the postoffico and other
place * , and they spent much time to
gether. I called on ministers and
others , and could have broken It up ,
but nho said to every one that I was
insane , and by those fatso statements
she excused her conduct for having
such sympathy for my husband. TJn
der this terrible pressure my younger
sister stealing my husband's affections
from mo , my health gave w y , bring
ing mo twice to the borders of the
grave , which physicians can testify to.
and also started the false story that 1
waa crtzy , God , and God only knowi
what I have Buffered on her account ,
becauBB I wanted my husband to my *
self , Home aa it should bo waa
broken up for moro than aovon years
past ; church relations , which had been
dear , have been severed , and almost
all hope of future happiness , through
the improper conduct of Mrs. Ward
with my husband , but I have tried to
bear it with Christian fortitude , pray
ing and hoping all the time that God
would have mercy on her soul , I have
boon robbed of homo comforts , a kind
husband's affections , my good name
landored und my health shattered.

A STARTLING SITUATION-
Tuo Havorly Opera Company Ao
eaulted by a Qantr of Rongba
at Pueblo
Upon their nnival at Pueblo Sun
day night the Haverly English opera
company became involved in a litth
episode which some of the memberi
will remember for yeara to come as :
daring adventure upon the highwayt
of the Weatorn frontier. In chang
ing from the broad to the narro ?
gauge cars there waa not a sufficient
number ot bertha in the sleeper for al
the party , and a number of the ladle ;
and gentlemen were provided ampli
accommodations In the first car ad
joining.
A few minutes before the trail
tarted for Denver four roughs onteroi
he front end of the car1 and pasao <
.hroogh to the rear , where the mem
ors of the company * roro sitting , am
iegan to taunt and insult the ladies
ilr. Broderick waa sitting near th
oor , and his wife , who had boon nn
well for a f aw days , waa reclining wit ]
ier head npon hla shoulder. One c
be villains walked up to the lady am
rith some impudent word came noa
uttlng his hand npon her face. Ii
> n instant Mr. Broderick sprang to hi
bet and knocked the ruflim down
Then grabbing him by the coat colla
ho started to drag him to the dooi
when the other three rushed to th
'escno.
At the same time four ntnlwnr
members of the company , includin
"ilanogor Mack , sprung forward t
Brodorlck'a assistance. Mr.Mat
Graw knocked down ono of. the thrc
while the other two were clevorl ;
handled. In less than a mlnnto thi
enliro gang were kicked off the trail :
and two of the party , for whom th
olico had been searching , were ai
ested as soon as they touched th
ground.
The character of the ruffhns is si
well known that it ia regarded as
ortainty that it waa their purpose t
raise a row with the opera people an
in the melee rob the ladies of thei
liamonda and other valuables. N
no of the gentlemen waa hurt.
