TEE DULY BEE-OMAHA , TUESbAY , FEBRUARY 5 , 1884. You CannotBny It in tlio \is \ Bar-rooms. What ail absurd idea it is to send a sick man. with an ailing stomach , a torpid liver , and impoverished blood , to a bar-room to swallow some stimulating stuff , and call it medicine 1 . An enormous amount of mischief inconstantly done by men who thus trifle with themselves. Instead oi healing their diseases , they make them worse. Instead of gaining strength they only acquire the dis graceful habit of tippling. It is a point worth noting in con nection with Broivn's Iron Bitters , that this valuable medicine is not sold in bar-rooms , and will not be. It is not a drink. It is a remedy. It is not made to tickle the palate/ > ( old topers. It is made to heal dis ease. It is not made to promote the rood-fellowship of a lot of bibulous fellows standing around a bar and asking each other , "What will you lake ? " It is a true tonic ; andiron medicine containing the only prepa ration of iron which can safely and beneficially be taken into the system DP. IX 0. WEST'S NETIVK AND HRAIX TmuT.

Tlio milrtnmkors Who Toll All for 4S ( OcntH Llttlo Girls IVho Make Tnriicdocn. I doubt if nnywlicro on cnrtli , except in the coal-mines of Englnnd , a moro wretched , povortyslrlckon , unhnppy , nnd misornlilo lot of vromcn can bo found than the shirtmnkors of Now York , writes a corrcflpondcnt of The Cincinnati En quirer. There nro thousands of thcso women , nnd they work nil day long nnd part of every night for n miaornblo pit tance. The work is excessively hard. They make the garments for the big dealers , nnd so great is the competition that n dny 'a labor , extending from 7 in the morning till 10 nt night , results in the magnificent stipend of 45 conta n dayl They hyo in gnrrota nnd collars , and they nro , without exception , _ wan , sickly- looking , and weary. It is rather odd that n majority of shirtmnkors are women who , by birth and natural nd\an tagcs , uro vary much above the nverngo of women workers. T remember ono Saturdny afternoon some time ago I had occasion to visit a Inrgo shirt-houso in Eldridgo street when the women wcro presenting their checks for payment. It was the end of tlio week , nnd they had all brought in their work. Tlioro wore , perhaps , 100 of them in line waiting to bo paid nt the cashier's desk. They had brought their work dur ing the week , nnd had received a check for each piece as it was returned. At the end of the week they presented all their checks for payment. The sum which each woman received was actually pitiable , and it is impossible to conceive how they can live and support their families on so little money. As they Blood in line I was struck by the extraordinary delicacy of the majority of the faces. There was not n healthy-looking woman in the entire - tire ciowd , and the majority had the palid look common to those who spend the most of their time indoors. Moat of them wore faded bonnets and were wrapped pod tightly in old shaws. Fully three- quarters of the number were gloves very much out nt the finger-ends. Among them wcro a number of faces which in former years had undoubtedly been those of thoroughly attractive women. They wore quiet , Dolt-contained , and reserved. There was not a woman among them who did not look as though she was fit for a bettor livelihood than that of making shirts. 1 spplio to the proprietor about it , and ho said : It is always n mystery to mo. Those women work like galley slaves nnd ruin their health because they think it is ' moro rospoctajblo to do 'this sort of a thing and this is the strangest part of it all they conceive that this work is very much higher toned than than of a shop girl. They nro overcome by the idea of being their own mistresses , and so they continue nt the drudgery. Prob ably throe fourths of the women hero in line could got Rood comfortable homes , cosy hours and abundant food if they would go out as chambermaids , or cooks , but they leave that sort of things to Irish immigrants , and toil on hero. " Probably after the shirt girls in point of wretchedness como the women nnd girls who work in factories of various sorts. Thov nro obliged to got to work at G o'clock in the morning , and they are not released till 0 at night. They make nil sorts of things , from paper boxes to delicate flowers. They are herded in the lofts of immense buildings in manufacturing districts of the city , and are n class distinct and separata from any other in Now York. They affect to dispiso the more showy shop-girls and the more miserable shirt-makers , and are proud of their proficiency in their own special lino. They have reason to bo , for of all wage workers in Novr York they are the most sensible. When n woman of class goes out to work it is necessary that she should cheese some special branch as it is fqr.a boy who starts in life to choose a particular trade. Women who excel in any of the various grades of the numerous industries in Now Yoak command good prices and are never in need of work. That they have to work very hard is indisputable. I shall never forgot ono women who attracted the attention of at least fifty thousand people n day for several months in n carpet factory near the plovatod road. The factory in question is situated direct ly opposite and withui twenty foot of tlio Third avenue elevated station at Chatham square. From the station could bo soon several hundred women sowing carpets on clanging and clattering machines all day long , liusinoss men who came down in Uio morning and were obliged to got off nt Oltatham square , so as to connect with the branch road to the city hall , watched the vromon curiously ns they waited for their trains. At night when they waited in the same place they watched them again' until their train came along. Moro than fifty thousand men did this every day in the year. Ono morning in the early part of May lost year the eyes of every man were attract ed toward the southern window of the building the ono nearest the stationA now-comor had taken charge of the m\- ohino which faced the window. She was a remarkably handsome women , and she charmed the eyes of the multitude from the moment she made her appearance. She had a aunorb figure , shapely arms , magnificent black eyes , lots of color , and regular features. Occasionally she glanc ed down at the multitude who watched her eagerly , but the never smiled nt the dudcinor _ gave the slightest glance of recognition to the bankers , brokers , and respectable merchants who glared at { her so amorously. She was a subject of con versation every morning for a long time after she had made her appearance. The men looked for her as regularly as they looked at the city hall clock. When she first appeared hero her black hair wan drawn neatly down over her forehead and gathered in a tight roll at tlio back of her head. She were a bit of something white about her neck , and looked re freshing nnd pretty. This was just be fore the hot weather began. Gradually the woman began to fade ; the heavy car pet which she was compelled to stitch became dusty , and the glare from the street and the heat of the air made the work moro and moro trying every day , She began to show traces of fatigue ; she groR-heavy-eyodi her hair , which had formerly boon neatly arranged , was al lowed to strangle over her brow , and Uio neatness which had characterized her whole appearance disappeared before the oppression of the heat and the awful amount of work which she was obliged to do every day. Her face grow thinner , the color departed from her cheeks , and black circles came under her ovcs. The fifty thousand men stared at her every day , observed the change , ryid commenc ed upon it. By the time scorching heat of July had como she had wasted away to a mere skeleton. The pale and wan cheek was heightened by a hectic flush , ind her eyes was unnaturally bright The fifty thousand men looked at her and bet ton to five among themselves that shu wouldn't last until the 1st of August. Those who had put up money on the en- duranro of the poor creature wcro moro interested in her , than over. Ono pas- seiner , a produce broker whom I know , said to mo ono morning : "I look for that face nt the window nnd for the roof of the produce-exchange every morning with the utmost anxiety. If that face goes away before the 1st of August I shall loose 525. If I find the flag on the roof of the produce exchange I will know that some of the members are dead , and that will cost mo $10 more. I can never draw n long breath until I have icon both lotteries and am safely housed in my office. " The broker lost hu money. Shortly before the 1st of August the fifty thou sand men were shocked or gladdened , as the case might bo , by seeing in the place of the beautiful girl who had so long sat framed * in by the window n raw-boned , scrawny , nnd freckled woman , with n face so positiuoly ugly that it would stop a Chinese funeral. Speculation was rife ns to what had become of the girl. Ono day three of us were going up-town about 3 o'clock in the afternoon in Au gust , talking as usual about the carpet girl , 'when somebody proposed that wo should go up into the carpet-houso nnd ask about her. For n moment it scorned a rash and dreadful thing to do. But after n jittlo thought wo ascended the stops and climod to the second s'-ory of the building. When vro got there wo were stared at by several hundred em ployes , and guyed unmercifully until wo found the superintendent. 11 o was n little - tlo man , with a quick , nervous manner , and n bald head. Wo stated our orrnnd to him ns quickly ns possible. lie said : "It is astonishing how much interest that girl created. You nro only three of three thousand men who have como up to ask about her. Her history was not re- marknblo in nny respect , nnd she is now dointr quito well. " "What became of her ? " "You seem very anxious to know , " said the little man , with n very hard twinkle of his right eye , ns ho stared at us. "Yes , wo have como nil the \vay up hero to BOO if wo couldn't find out what had become of her. Wo have no base and sinister motives. Wo are moved sim ply by curiosity. " "No doubt , " said the little man , with the same hard glitter in his eye. There was a painful pause. Wo stood and stared at each other , while the operatives kept on with their guying , and tlio little man kept on with his staring. Finally , after a long wait , some ono of our party said : "Well , what the deuce did become of her ! " "Sho married , " said the little man la' comically. There was another dreary pause. Finally I mustered up courage enough to say : "Who ? " "Mo , " said the little man. Then wo loft. _ Another distinct class of Now York girls are those who are under 14 years of ago , nnd who uro obliged to work for a living. They are the cash girls in the big dry goods stores , the errand girls in small shops , and the workers in factories Ono day I was walking along West Broad way when a sign from the second story of a low brick building attracted my at tention. " The sign said : "Torpedoes made hero. " Impelled by curiosity , and having nothing on my hands , I wandered up-staira. There in a little room in the rear of the house I found about sixty girls , none of whom were over 1C years of ago. They were the most woebegone , stunted little things that I have over soon. There was something pitiable in their wretchedness. They were making torpedoes. Ono batch of little girls filled a number of holes in square boards , which they hold upon their laps , with the pebbles and silver of which top tor pedoes are mado. Other little girls took the boa-da from them and stamped pa per into the holes on to the silver nnd pebbles. Others extracted the material from the holes and wrapped it up in other bits of brown paper. All of them were little leather aprois | , and their hands nnd arms were almost black from the .work. Their movements were quick. They were as solemn ns judges. The superin tendent , an old Gorman , canioda rattan. Tlio children worked from 7 until 5. They received (10 cents a day. These are a few of the many classes in Now York. Eminent Medical Testimony. 19 EAST 32n STUEET , \ NKW YOUK , March 15,1883.

The jury in the case of Troisvillo Sykos , on trial for the murder of the notorious Kate Townsend - send , queen of the Notf Orleans dorai- mend , brouht in a verdict , to-day of not guilty. The case lias boon watched with much interest hero. Sykos , although in prison waiting trial for the murder of the woman , managed to secure possession of the property , which she had loft htm by will through his lawyer , and was rapidly making away with it when the court in terfered and put Uio sheriff in possession. The criminal case promises to bo followed by a long litigation over the property , amounting to nearly a quarter of a million dollars. Attempts wilt bo made to pre vent Sykea from getting possession of this estate on the ground that , by the laws of Louisiana , a man can not inherit from his concubiuo. The case promises to be a rich ono for the lawyers. Sykos , It is generally rumored , paid $30,000 or 840,000 to his lawyers for securing his acquittal. Kato Townsend had for many years beonknown as the "queen of tfiu demi monde" of Now Orleans , and her notoriety riety extended to all parts of the country. She was mistress of a largo and fashion able house of ill repute , and had for a number of years lived with Troisvillo E. Sykos , the defendant who is connected with some of the lending families of New Orleans. Of late ho and his mistress had had a number of quarrels , caused , it is - said , by jealousy on his part. The trouble culminated ou the morning of the 4th of November last , when sue and Sykea were alone in her room. The sounds of angry voices and of a struggle were heard , nnd when the inmates of thn house reached the room they found Kato Townsend lying in a pool of blood. Lifo wns extinct. Sykcs declared that she had attactcd him with a knife , and that ho had killed her in self-defense. Ho wns severely wounded in the thigh. Ho promptly surrendered himself nnd wns committed to jail. The killing was done with a broad-bladcd bowio-knifo nine inches long. Elovcd wounds were found in the body. The crime produced a tre mendous sensation in Now Orleans , nnd the funeral of the victim called forth an immense concourse of people. After her death her will , made ten years before , was probated , It bequeathed all her property to Sykcs , but the courts refused to give him possession pending his trial.

Blowott rnturncd homo yester day from his trip to Cheyenne , whore ho had gone to perfect the incorporation of a now organization to bo known ns the Oro2on Stock nnd Land company , which succeeds to the business heretofore carried riod on by Messrs. Blowott & Balding , of this city. The company is incorporated under the laws of Wyoming , for § 1,000,000 , in shares of $100 each. William Evans , of Choyonnc , is president ; Jas. Balding , Fremont , is vice-president ; John W. Collins , Cheyenne , secretary and treas urer ; E. Blowott , Fremont , general su perintendent. The company will deal in and breed horses exclusively. Thov now have on hand about 0,000 head , and have contracted for 4,000 moroto bo delivered in the near future , making 10,000 head in all. Their ranges nro located in Baker county , Oregon , and Omyheo county , Idaho , lying between the Snake river on the east and the Blue mountains on the west. This country is ono finely adapted to the raising of live stock , providing good posture and affording excellent water facilities. Their horses are fine animals and after ono or two crosses they will bo broughl to a state of perfection seldom attained in so largo n heard. They now have on hand GO fine Norman and Clydesdale tallionocosting from $200 < olGOOcach , and expect to import a nuinoor from Franco the coming year Four men are required to look after the stock on the ranges in winter time and about eighteen hands will bo oat- ployed during the summer to round-up and brand the horses. Next year they expect to have 2,500 head of colts to label. The old Siovcrs , or Hillside farm , ly ing five miles north of Fremont and heretofore owned by Mr. Blowott , has boon turned into the company. This farm consists of 800 acres of line land and is ono of the best stock ranches in Ne braska. It is divided up into convenient pastures and 220 acres of it nro seeded down in blue gross. The yards are all supplied with living water from a good and never failing spring. A good barn ICO foot long is already on the place and three moro of the same size will bo built as soon as possible. The horses will bo brought here from the ranges , placed on feed , groomed and broken to the harness. From 300 to 400 head will bo kept on this farm constantly ana buyers will make their purchase at this point. It is the intention of the managers to also import 100 head of thoroughbred brood marcs to bo placed on this farm and Mr. Blowott will go tb Europe next summer to niuko his selec tions. The gentlemen composing this firm are all active and thorough-going business men who have made a big success in their live stock operations during the past few years , but in this now deal the prospects are that they will meet with a success unprecedented in the horse-raising in dustry of the west.

It seems that some of the members of the Kentucky legislature are doing some thing else besides trying to nominate a candidate for senator. A gentleman di rect from the seat of firewater informed The Enquirer yesterday Uiat there was some livuly poker-playing at night. "Why , " said the man , "tho games in Frankfort would make the cold blood run among the tinhorn men of this city. The other night a delegate from Louisville was playing with a mountain county dele gate , and Uio Louinvillo man hold four deuces. The hay-teed genUeinau was dealing , and managed to get a straight Utwh , and then the betting commenced. The bridle was off and there was no limit. Both men uncorked their bundles , and the dust commenced to fly. The bolting was ? 60 at a time to go wiUi , but this became - came monotonous , and the bills with a big O on them were placed on the table. -Neither man winced , as each was sure of winnlng ! but finally Uio Louisville man called when he had an even 81,000 staked on hi. hand. Old hay-seod laid down his straight nush , which made the gentleman from dqwn the river shudder , by God , sab , ns the firm grip of the mountain man was laid on enough crisp bank bills to buy several votes at the usual price. Ho laid down his four deuces , with the remark that ho would not como in again until ho had something. Ho evidently had something after that , as ho quit $1,100 winner before the hotel boll an nounced that hash was ready. It is a commr n occurrence in Frankfort to see a man drop a cool hundred on n hand. Mr. George Dodge 8i < cnlcH. This gentleman lives In Emporium.

" Tlio Vienna Murderer Hugo Schcnk , who was recently arrest ed nt Vienna for the murder of four women , partly confessed his crimes , bul denied sumo of the charges. The lock smith in whoso house ho was arrested wns also taken into custody. It is said thai four families have for many years lived solely upon the savings of murdered ser vant gnlsj and it is thought likely Schenk's uctiins will bo found to exceed half u dozen. Ho confessed to ono crime which none suspected , and also to having murdered an aunt and niece of the name of Timal. Ho did not show much courage while being examined and fainted several times. Schlossarok , the locksmith , seems n more determined character , but his rr fo , who is ignorant of his crimes , was diflkult to deal with. In her despair she seemed ready to kill her babe for being n murderer's child. It is declared that n band of at least sixteen persons nil lived in ono house in the remote suburb of Uudolphshohn , near ViennaMid planned thcso murders. Hugo Sclienk was the member intrusted with the work of entic ing the girls .away nnd murdering them with Schlosfaroks aid. The iirst ot the coses in which Schonk is suspected dates back to August , 1878 , nnd the last is supposed to have occurred in August last. The earliest victim was Theresa Kottorl. U7 years of ago , from Munich , who was employed as cook in the household of an ofucial of the minis try of finance. The police were informed t lat she had been seen nt U p. m. , on the 4th of August preceding , in the company of a man apparently about Uo years old , who on the day before was going about with her. The stranger was waiting for the missing woman near a house. She came out and they walked nbout till 0 p. m. , when the woman , who is represented by all ns of highly respectable character , returned toward her homo. She had made the acquaintance of the man by moans of matrimonial advertisement. On'j August 4 she said was , sheQgoing to make an excursion to the mountains , but that she would return before her master did. On the day named she carried a lady's enameled watch with chain , several rings and bracelets , and a savings-bank book for 1,177 florins. It was then ascertained that on August G , two days after her departure parturo , the book was presented to the savings bank nnd the money taken out. The woman had taken with her her dog in a basket. On August 10 , this "bask et" was found in a carriage on the Vien na Paris express train. The basket was empty , but the dog's straw-colored hairs in it were enough to identify it. On the 20th of December the police received information thatlvatarinaTimal , from Bohemia , 47 years of age , and her niece , Josephine Timal , 33 years old , a chambermaid out of service , living in a suburb of Vienna , had left with a certain Hugo Schonk , pretending to bo a railway engineer , for Cracow , and had not been hoard of since by their relatives. This information was lodged by the three sisters of Josephine , the niece. The director of police , being informed by tele graph of the occuronco , at once remem bered the case of Ketterl , in which the circumstances were similar. It was shown that Josephine Timal was in service , with another girl named Maria Gruusam , in the establishment of an old lady in April , 1883. They were both woll-bohaved diligent girls , and had , the first , 750 florins , and the other 500 florins in the savings bank. They thought of marry ing , and , like Ketterl , each of them advertised for a husband. Two days afterward Josephine Timal received a letter asking for an interview. The writtor came to the housn nnd introduced himself as an engineer out of work. Ho spoke , however , of a rich aunt.nnd seems to hnvo gained over the girl very quickly , for after the first interview she told her friend that she was very happy and hoped to make a good marriage. After n further courtship Josephine told Maria that Shonk insisted on her leaving service , as ho could not 'marry ' a domestic servant. J osophino left her mistress on May 25. It struck the friend Maria as strange that the bridegroom did not como to fetch his bride , but sent her a message through a commissionaire that ho was waiting for her in the square before the Votive church. Nothing has since been heard of Jose phine.
