Mrs , G , A , LMuncst Knocked Down and HoW Monday Night , The Assailant Kccotvcd Ono Cent for Ills Ucnstly Act nnd Escaped. Moudayovoniiig.onlyafowminutosaftor (1 ( i o'clock , Mrs. G. A. Lindtjucst , who li iad been doing some shopping in thou u y , was returning to her homo on Elgh- : conth street , between Jackson and cavcnworth streets , Just as nho np proochcd the corner of Eighteenth nnt Jackcon streets , she felt a hand laid lioav- ly upon the baofc of her nock , Mid she wa pushed forward to the ground , at the same time she was struck a heavy blow upon the top of her head which stunned her for a few moments. As the lady foil to the ground the vil kin , whoever ho was , seized her purse , which waa hanging upon her arm , and made his escape. In the purse was jusf one cent in money and some pieces o ! ribbons. When Mm. Lindmtoat had recovered sufficiently she cried for help , and some - assisted her to her homo. Her Eassors-by ice was cut somewhat in her fall and ho was prostrated with fright and from the blow upon her head. The scoundrel 'who thus assaulted ho must have followed her from town , ai she ) heard him walking behind her , bu paid no attention to his movtmonto. The place whora the lady was nttucko is right in the heart , of the city , as i were , for within ono hundred loot from the spot is n place of business , with it bright gas-lighta blazing from the windows dews , and within three hundred foot ii an electric lamp , and upon the vury corner nor where the assault was madeis ft stroo lamp which was sending forth all th light possibla from Omaha gas. Time and time again it has boon sai that a gang of sneak thieves are quttrtorci in Omaha , and are working the city Sneak thieves are no where. s > A pack o villians , yes , villiaus of the deepest dye are in our midst , and stand ready no only to steal an overcoat or cap , but alsi to stab a man in the back for the sum o fifty cents , if necessary. Any ono who will assault a lady Mrs. Lindquoat was Aisaultod Monday would do anything , that is , anything which did not place him In danger , fo ho is too cowardly to face danger for i moment. Ho would stab a man in th back in the dark. Things have certainly coino to a pretty pass when a lady can not walk wit ! safety upon our principal streets at si ; o'clock in the evening. Can it bo thai the old days of border outlawry are returning turning ? It seems aa if the citizens o Oiniha would bo obliged to organize vigilance committee and deal with a fo of thcso loafers , thieves and vilUans in manner such as they richly deserve.

AFFIRMED , Tlio Judgment in the CUBO of Con. neil vs. Tlio 1'onnfiylYanla Cen tral AlHriucd lit Olil- Yesterday. Hon. W. J. Connell last night received a telegram from the clerk of the appellate late court of the city of Chicago that the judgment of the lower court in hd'caso against the Pennsylvania Central vail- road had been aflirmod. This judgment , which was for $15,000 , was rendered about a year ago in the circuit court of Cook county , 111. Mr. Council while travelling over the Pennsylvania Cen tral road with a through ticket to Wash ington was put off this company's train by the conductor. Ho brought suit for damages against the road in Chicago and a verdict for $15,000 was returned by the jury. This was afterwards sot aside by the court as being oxoossivo and a new trial ordered. Tha jury in the second end trial returned a verdict ior a like amount. The railroad company made a vigorous attempt to have this ono sot aside but the court refused so to do. The case was then taken up to' the ap pellate court and the judgment for $15- 000 was yesterday affirmed by that tribu nal. OUT DOWN , The U. 1' . Shop Laborers Kcduucil From Ton tu El ht AVorlc- iiifj Hours. Notice was posted in the U. P. shops .with ttio exception of the moulding and 'boiler-making departments , yesterday that , until otherwise ordered , the cm ployoos would bo allowed to work enl eight hours per day. This will reduce their wages ono-fifth. This prder has arisen from the fact that there is no enough work to do to keep up the whole force on full time , and it wai doomed better by those in char o to rodueo the number of working hours than lay oft'a part of those employed. This order wil affect fully ninety per cent of the labor - era in Uio shops. The amount of work to bo done in the shops has of late ma tonally diminished , as it was onlyashori time ago that a force of twenty-six men was cashiered from ono of the depart monta. Uoroaftor thoboilor-makersand mould ors will go to work on smelting work : time , as the shop whistle will not blow until 8 o'clock ' in the morning. IVUTo Aivako Druggists. O. F.

AMUSEMENTS , Frari7c Blnyo na "Davy Orockolt" Iiast Nl lit tit the Opera House very small audience was present laat evening at Boyd's opera house to witness Frank Mayo in his time- tried play of "Davy Crockett. " It may have been that the intense cold < opt many people from attending the entertainment , and there may bo such a thing as the old play having lost consid erable of its interest to theatre goers. While the play is a standard one and canuot'bo beaten as a backwoods play , yet eleven years is a long time for any play _ to bo presented before the same audiences each season , and people will not bravo the weather on such a night aa last night to see a play which they have witnessed time and time again. As for the play itself it was rendered in excellent style , although a lack of life was noticeable in the first two acts. Davy" was presented as Mayo alone can do it , and as usual was faultless. His leading support , Miss Charlotte Behrena , as "Elinor Vaughn , " was good. Some of the parts , perhaps , were not sustained as well as they woru a year ago , while others wore bettor. The audience was very cold until the close of the fourth act , when moro en thusiasm was manifested , and Mr. Mayo and Miss Bohrons rrero called before the curtain. Always to the Front. I feel It a duty due to the Nebraska & Iowa Insurance company of this city to make the following statement : I recently took out two policies of insurance on my stock , ono in the Nebraska & Iowa for $750 and ono in an eastern company for § 1,000. On February 9th I sustained a serious damage on my property , and in response to my notification of leas said company responded promptly in the per son of Mr. Goodwin , ono of the officers of the company , who made a just and liberal estimate of the damage sustained , and immediately paid mo § 153.13 , this being the first loss paid in the destruct ive lire of the 9th inst. , wherein over § 50,000 worth of property was destroyed. On my policy in the eastern company received only $08.60 damages , notwith standing the fact that their policy was for § 1,000 where the Nobrasda & Iowa's policy was for $750 , yet I received from the latter on mytiamago $51.33 moro than from the eastern company. Why not insure with our homo company. OMAHA , February 12 , 1881. 1' . A. MANOEK , Printer , 1402 Farnam Street. UTAH TEAFFIO , Iho Following Circular in HcRai-d to Vtali Trafllo Has Bucu Issued.
