Those combustibles which had been made dump by Fridiy'a fire wore ignited yesterday morning and called out the department a nooond time. The flames h d gained considerable head way but wore chocked on the Arrival of the department. No damage was done to the building or goods by the fire but the estimated loss from water ia placed at $2,000 , A watchman had boon employed about the building nines the fire , but ho failed to find the ono yester day morning in time to bo able put it out himself. laborers were nt work all of yustorday cleaning out the upper story to avoid a third firo.

The fire proved to bo at 1450 South Ninth street , tud in a house owned by Charles Kauf * nan. The collar to the house which had ) eon recently completed , contained sliav- ngs and other iniUmmablo material which was sot on fire by the careloiH mo of matches by children.

The bojn from NOB. 2 and t wore delayed at the depot by a Union Pacific train which blocked the roadway. They , however , reached the fire after it iad made considerable headway , and aonn put out the ihnica. The necessity of a good fire apparatus for south Omaha waa again verified in this fire , and Mr. [ vauflman thinks if the Deluge company bad had a line of good hose the building would not have boon damaged to exceed $10 or $20. Mr. KauQnan'a loss will bo about $500 , $300 of which is covered by in surance. Mr. Smith , bis tenant , who had novod into the houscnotan hour before , oat about $150 on his furniture , on which there is no insurance.

Ho remained with her for oomo time nnd finally returned to the fort. In a cnuplo ol days afterward ho came to BOO her and a quarrel ensued between them. When ho had loft , the Bobs of the girl brought the landlady to her room to whom aho told the pitiful story of her wrongs and ex pressed a strong desire to return beneath her fathor'H roof. The unfortunate young girl ha-1 no money and ways were tu bo devised by which she might return.

The friends of Clack came with pockoUful of money to bet on their favorite - orito , and brought the Omaha sporta to n standstill. After scoring for nearly a half hour the sprinters were started. For the first 100 yards the runners were breast and breast , after which Clack took the load and kept it to the finish , boating his op ponent , who quit when within about 20 yards of the string , and came homo rcatly wcariot' and much exhausted.

Dloasdalo , county clerk of Keith. The "ono Doran" proves to bo H. Dorn , who has since called at TUB BBI : ofUco , one offered au oxplamation of his connection with the school land scandal in Keith county. Mr. Dorn'a statement is as follows : "I and a few prominent Germans in Omaha are interested in Keith county school lands , each ono of us having made application for from onn to three sections. Mr. Stollo , cashier of the North I'latlo bank , and last year county olork of Lincoln county , telegraphed mo on the ( ! th or 7th of Juno to come up al once on the next train. Upon reaching North I'latto I learned tlmt Stollo hat boon appointed ono of the appraisers ol the Keith county school landt , nnd Lo told mo that ho had the appraiscmonl ready to bo sent to Lincoln , to the laud commiaaionor , and that the appraiso- mcnt would bo 25 cents an aero if would pay him A HONUH OK $2.000 cash or buy sixty-four Boctions of Bchool land in the names of luuisolf and \ \ . A Doach , his partner. I answered Stollo an' ' Beach that I considered them damned frauds , that I had nothing to do with the OJIA1IA SYNDICATE , and that all I wanted was to secure few sections of Bchool.lands for myself and some gentlemen with whom I had made an engagement. On account of my refu sal Stollo kept thooppra'soraontlockcd ] up in his eafo , ana it could not bo" removed by the county clerk of Keith county , Mr. Bloasdale , Sam Watts , surveyor , and Joe Elughcs , deputy shoritl , all being ap praisers for the Keith county school lauds , Stollo stating that ho would have the landB , appraised at five or six dollars lars an acre , by reason of my refusal to pay the blackmailing bonus of $2,000. "This matter was referred to Glenn Kendall by County Clerk Bloasdale , of Keith county , and Kendall then sent up another list to have a new appraisement mado. This concern , Stollo & Beach , uro the cause of the injunction suit being brought. They said because I would ant pay them the sum of § 2,000 they owuld cause us trouble. "So far as tha appraisement is con cerned , they ( the appraisers ) appraised on the land at least two mouths , and the appraisement waa not influenced with a cent of money on my part , or on the part of any man who made tbo applica tion. But after Stollo tried that black mailing business on mo , which I reported to every ono of the appraisers , f begged thorn when they made the now appraiio- munt to forward it at once without giv ing Stollo any chance to got hold of it , because 1 know ho would lock it up as ho did the other ono. It is A LIE that I over touched the appraisement with any pencil or pan , because the ap- iraisomont , when I saw it , was already nadp and duly sworn to by the duly au thorized oppraienrs. The appraisement was undo at from 50 to 70 cents per aero , according to the appraisement in the sur rounding counties. The land is not in ho hands ot a syndicate so far ns I know. There are from fiO to CO applications for the land , and among those that had leas ed were from twonty-fivo to thirty farm ers. That I know. I can prova that so ar as asTHE THE LINCOLN COUKTV SCEOOL LANDS are concernedtho Lincoln county officials acted unlawfully and fraudlently , because whan a man came to North I'latto for school land in that county the fact was reported to the bank concern , and they .old him that ho had to pay a certain Bum x > got the land , or that ho would never ; ot it , because the application would not aavo gene out from the proper oflico. I uow of a few ca es where a man wont nto the proper office to got information about the lands , and they made him put down the number of section , township ind range , that ho wanted , aud then the bank concern made application for the Mid and put in a higher bid. They made him believe that six per cent nan enough to bid , and the bank bid six and a half. In all my trannactious I have not soon any fraud in the KKITII COUNTY offices , whila I have seen a great many unlawful things in .tho Liucolu county offices , and am ready to go on the stand at any time to swear to it , or make affidavit. The bank concern at North riatto , together with Dudley , of Sidney , caused the injunction to bo brought. The leases of the Lincoln county school landa'Imvo boon lying in Beach's safe for at least four monthsibecausu they would not pay interest until they could got a sure man to turn it over to.

" "I regard PRICE'S BAKING POWDER as superior , to the Itayul BAKING POWDER for the following reasons : " 1. It contains no Ammonia a substance which is not advisable in articles of fojd and unnecessary , if it JP not positively injurious. 2. It contains less starch , and therefore , weigh' for weight , con tains more of the active ingredients and is a purer article. 3. It evolves more carbonic acid gas nnd therefore nioro efficient , as shown by analysis and by exparimeut with a weighed quantity of biscuit dough. 4. The ingredients are mixed in better proportions , so that there ii less free alkaline carbonate remaining in the dough to impair digestion by neutralizing the gastric juice. 5.
