The tiotod old building on the south-
teast corner of Thirteenth nnd Douglas
streets has boon leveled to the ground , to
make way for a more imposing pllo of brick
and stone. For moro than a quarter of a
century it haa boon the magnet around
which has clustered many of the brightest
writers in the west and scores of printers
who there laid the foundations of fame
aud fortune. Constructed ns n printing
oflico in 1857 , it perished as one in 1884 ,
Jt was the cradle of the Nebraskan nnd
the Elornld nnd the nursery of the reju
venated Republican. Every inch of the
building proclaimed in indolliblo spots its
usefulness. The floors nnd walla bore
silent evidence of the "art preservative"
aud the coiling yawned tor nn introduc
tion to a vrhituwash brush. Ita demoli
tion waa a stroke of economy aa well as n
necessity and its reconstruction will
greatly improve the appearance of the
neighborhood.
TUB BUILDINO WAS CONSTKUCTED
in ' 57 by W.W.Wyman , who is given the
credit of being the first regularly appoint
ed postmaster of the city. Mr. Wyman
published the Weekly Times , a demo
cratic paper , nt that time and the build-
lug was planned for a printing oflico , the
wiudowa being numerous for light and
ventilation. The basement was arranged
for the accommodation of steam presses ,
but n dozen years passed before steam
power was put in the building and then
by ether parties. Failing health forced
Mm to abandon journalism and ho sold
the oflico to tha Nebraskan which was
moved from Bellevue to Omaha
by M. H. Clarke. _ The Nebraskan -
braskan continued under different pro
prietors , as a weekly , tri-weekiy , and
some times dailytill the close of the war.
Arthur N. Ferguson was apprenticed in
the Nebraskan oflico nt Bellovup after the
death of his father , Chief Justice Fergu
son , in 1859. Ho remained in the oflico
after it moved to thia city till 1802 , and
graduated aa "high roller" of a Washing
ton hand press. Mr. Chas. Goodrich did
some tall typo-sotting in the NebrasKan
oflico. Ono of the chief amusements of
the gang in these days was to run for the
river when a steamboat whistle waa heard

aa to the spiritual character of
the cargo. Mr. Harry Haskcll ,
the present foreman of TUB
HKK set his first stickful in town in that
building in 18G2 , Ho took a tour of
the west aa far aa Montana and soon re-
iurnod to his first lovo'content to make or
break with the ntick and rule. Mr. Me-
Cheano , another veteran gtypo , who mot
with a violent death while attempting
to arrest a desperado in 1870 , circulated
between the Nobraakan and the Republi
can oflicoa , and retired from the business
at the close of the war. Congressman
Valentine , of the Third district , frequent
ly act 'em up in that building and be
tween that and the Republican got his
first start on the road to fortune. Vol.
took his turn kicking the press in the
llepublican office and his long shins were
frequently ekinncd between the tredlo
and tympan. The Nobraakan collapsed
in 1805 , soon after the death of Robert
Wi son , ono of the publishers , and Clarke ,
\ his partner , returned to Michigan.
TIIE HERALD
first saw light in that building just
nineteen years ago this October. It was n
sic column folio. Dan Carpenter originated -
atod the idea of a democratic daily after
the collapse of the Nobraakan. After
Boveral interviews he induced Dr. Miller
to give up the medical profession and go
in with him. Their combined capital approached
preached $3,000. The typo and a Washington -
ington hand presa were brought from
Cincinnati by river , and the first edition
printed without a subscriber. This cool
reception waa not the fault of the propri
etors. They had an agent ( who is nowa _
iloriat in thia city ) out for several days in
advance drumming the town for sub
scribers , but the outhusiasm of the dotn-
ocrats was so great that they filled him
with their favorite beverage- and laid him
out before ho could reach the oflico with
the Hat. The Herald made money al
most from the start , and in a little ever a
year they discarded the Washington
press and put in n Taylor cylinder , the
first in the building. Carpenter remained
a member of the firm for three years and
then sold out to Mr. Lyman Richardson ,
ono of the present firm. Dan Van
Nostrand , of this city , waa
THE FIRST REPORTER ON TUB 1'Al'ER.
Ho was succeeded by F. M. MoDonagh
the present proprietor of the Nebraska
Wntohrnan in this city. "Littlo Mac"
was then in his prime , and although the
paper had been increased two columns in
size ho filled from four to six columns
a day in his own inimitable stylo. His
sharp , crisp , condensed method of record
ing events made the paper brlstlo with
lifo and vigor. Omaha waa then a great
uovrs center. The building of the
Pacific railroads , and the great rush of
people to Western Iowa , Nebraska and
the west made this city the supply depot
and outfitting point. Aa a , consequence
the town grow rapidly in importance.
Everything transpiring within a radius of
ono hundred miles or moro waa consid ;
ered strictly "local" news , and naturally
packed the columns of the paper nvory
day. liotwepn Mao and Miller the
Herald was a journalistic buzz-saw. ut
times changed and Mao nnd illor
drifted apart.
Charley Collins took hold when
McDonagh departed and kept his rebelli
ous disposition within bounds eng i
enough to earn u stake for :
A PAPER OF HIS OWN.
Hia varied career is familiar to every

Mr. Richardson frequently took n
notebook in hand or u scissors to help
out. And ho ia no amateur at the busi
ness , either. As an editorial joker he in
Immense , but his great weakness is
glowing puffe of a phat advertiser.
Frank Streamer , a noted descriptive
writer who once referred to the Rocky
mountain aa "tho everlasting hills , " waa
ono of the early reporters on the paper.
Ho drifted west in 1870 aud is no tv lo
cated in Oregon.
George Thorno waa city editor of the
Herald in 'C0-70 ' , and it can bo truly flaid
of him that he had no superior and few
equals as a iiowegatherer and writer iu
hia day. A man of general education ,
nnd a ( graceful , llttont writer , ho filled the
Herald with the lively and varied news
of thrsa tiays and made it superior to
the Herald of to-day , It was no uncom
mon thing for him to fill six or plght long
columns of the paper , sot in solid brevier
and nonpareil , In a day , and if f < icte
could not bo stretched to the required
length , fiction filled the vacancy. Thorno
was addicted to liquor which soon got the
host of him , Incapacitating him for work ,
nud ho died in n little groggory near the
court house.
A man named Campbell , from Chicago ,
followed Thorno , and ho became known
among the fraternity M
"rilK OUKAT ESPOUSED , "
from the fact that ho exhibited n number
of endorsements from eastern publishers ,
Uo sported n cano and n high-crown
derby tipped back to display n largo fora-
head and a solitary curl basking on its
shining surface ; n Seymour coat , white
vest nnd swell pantaloons completed n
toilet that attracted much attention.
Campbell was n witty , vigorous writer ,
ana made the Herald boom for n few
wooks. Uo soon foil a prey to the weak
ness of the profession. The spirit was in
him , but it vraa distilled corn juice , and
the vilest kind that mortal ever drank.
Uo kept it bottled under his table every
night , and had ho not boon iiroc. out early
in his career , the bottled lightning would
have ruined the innocents in the shop.
Campbell came in ns the first genuine
dude in the tonn and went out n saturat
ed wreck.
Another reporter , whoso name is for
gotten owing to the brevity of his career ,
come here from Philadelphia nnd took n
a position on the Herald. Ho attempted
to fill Dr. Miller's chair during n tempo
rary absence , nnd distinguished himself
by changing the politics of the papor.
Ho also Introduced "slug heads" on the
paper nnd disappeared.
"Shang" Andrewstho brilliantjnnd no
torious Shang , succeeded Campbell ,
coming from the Republican to the Her
ald. Ho mndo his entree into Omaha
journalism as city editor of the Republi
can nnd distinguished himself nt the
outsat by
A.011AND AND CLEVER "SCOOI1"
on the Herald. The Humboldt centennial
nial anniversary was colebrntcd hero by
a grand banquet in which nil prominent
citizens participated. It was agreed that
the copy of the addresses of the principal
speakers should bo given to the Jiopubll-
can on condition that proof-sheets would
bo furnished the Herald by ton o'clock.
Shang took charge of the copy. It was
put in typo Into nt night and delayed
under various pretexts until four o'clock
next morning , when ho sent ever to the
Herald copy for four solid columns. It
was a deliberate scoop. The Herald
came out that morning with n painful ,
aching void while the Republican was
crammed with the praises of the great
explorer.
Shang was n rustler on wheels. There
was just enough border outlawry and va
riety show lifo in town to make him feel
nt homo , nnd ho "dished up" the sensa
tions of the day with n vigor end freedom
thnt made the Horold the rccognizad
organ of the sports. His career was
shortlived howovor. The budding aria
tocracy of the town turned up its uoso
and pretended to fool insulted that the
great religious daily should ignore them
and devote columns to the doings of the
Canada Bills and other moral outcasts.
Shang returned to his old haunts in Chicago
cage nnd is living on" the same elements
thero.
"Phocion" Howard , the noted and er
ratic correspondent , occupied an eight by
ton room there along in 1870. Ho was
telegraph editor and proof reader nnd
slept on the mailing clerk's tablo. He
yrna
THE MOST ACCOMPLISHED KICKER
in the establishment , but his nuthority
was confined strictly to "bossing the
cub. " Among the many accomplish
ments of which Phocion boasted was the
science of the "manly art. " This ho fre
quently impressed upon the subordinates
of the office , particularly the cub. On
one occasion , a bitter cold night , the
cub rebelled "Phocion"
against and in
vited him to go to that climate where
winters are unknown. The printers ,
whoso regard for Phocion was infinitely
small , urged on the cub , nnd nn exchange
of nngry words followed , during which
Howard dubbed the printers a gang of
dogs without podigroos. This was n sig
nal for a walkout into Howard's room.
Johnny Hook , Nat Boldoa and Ed Wai-
don grabbed a aidestlck each and moved
on Howard's mud batteries , while the
cub and a mallet protected the roar of the
procession. The boys boat a vigorous
tattoo on Howard's high-backed chair
and demanded a retraction nnd an apol
ogy , which were reluctantly givon.though
not in very classic language. Howard's
prowcso as a pugilist received a decided
set back after tnis , and his
"KINQLY ' "
I'REUODATIVES ,
an ho frequently called thorn , wore made
the foot-ball of the establishment. His
career in the oflico was brief owing to an
inherent opposition to work of any kind
and a weakness for free lunches and frco
boor. Before his departure from Omaha
ho arranged n sensation for his successors
by leaving a note stating ho was tired of
lifo nnd determined to explore the mys
teries of the other shoro. An old hat ,
supposed to bo hie , was found on the
banks ot the Flatto river shortly
after , which tended to confirm the bo-
llof tliat ho had made
away with him- a
solf. But Phocion loved lifo too well to
cut it short , and was next hoard of ns
traveling correspondent of the Chicago
Tribune and is now publishing a paper

Ilf > n , -ncil Dlvlno Upon
Character. "
'
ROT. J. P. N , wmnn , pnator of th
Madison avenue d " 'Jgrogationnl churcl
of .Now York City , wft greeted by i
largo coiu'rogation in Hov. Shirroll'i
church , corner of Nine lecnlh nnd Chicago
cage streets , in this city lat't ovonlng.
This learned divine sok'ctccl for his
diicourso "character , " takitig A3 toxl
Hebrews twelfth chapter nnd j'ourtoonth
verso , "Without holiness no iino shall
see God. " "Character , " said tlitr minis
ter , Is the condition of everlasting lifo.
It doca not inlio.o in the human intellect ,
for the philosopher might hnvo been n
fool nnd tlio fool n philosopher ; nor doi
it inhere in the fortuities of lifo .Tho con
dition must bo predicated of every hu
man being.
It is said , continued the pronchor , of
an ancient thnt ho wont forth in search
of n man , ns God is in search of charac
ter. It is the doctrine of election and
reprobation thnt God from nil eternity
has given some tnon otornnl happiness
nud others ho has doomed to everlasting
sorrow. No philosopher would risk his
reputation upon defining lifo. No states
man would venture lo define civilization.
So it U with character , and if ho should
bo asked for n definition of it ho could
only answer that it is what a mnn is. It
Is not what ho is in n slngls word or not ,
but what ho Is in the tum total , what ho
is about the fireside , nt his plnco of busi
ness in short , the general drift of the
man. Some mon nro said to bo honest ,
but they nro so pimply from policy , nnd
the same way with truth.
The minister then divided character '
into natural , responsible and ovnngol- llh
ical. Christ Wont back of n man and es
timated him not according to his motives. "
Mnn novor-should bo judged by his motives lo
tives , which nro simply n reason for an am
am
notion , behind all o ! which is n causation esl
which is character. The bank cljrk who He [
steals the funds of widows nnd orphans , ofam t
when put upon his trial says ho had no Til
intention of stealing it , but his misfor
tune waa caused by greed. Character Is cal :
iohoritod. It is handed from father to cln
( '
ion. The physical and mental diseases , on
physicians say , nro transmitted , nnd why o-i
not virtues nud vices. Some mon from ilc
childhood up nro brutal , while others are
tpndor and loving. Some men lie con
tinually , which condition the minister
said ho would call simply nn enlargement
of the imagination. Such men make
good speculators nnd insurance mon. In
heritance of character Is simply n trans Cl
mission of n good or bad nature from
parent to child.
If character is thus transmitted should
man bo responsible ? Wo say no. Should n
man bo rewarded for having inherited n
good nature ? To this wo say no. But
there comes a time when mnn arrives nt
the line of demarcation , when ho assumes [
what has been given him by nature and
there hia responsibility .begins. Man
should make a study of his virtues and
boar what they can onduro. Seek
the event of some mon for they ware
born to iniluonco for good. It is n wise
mnn who knows his wonk points. It is
the misfortune of most men they nro con
stnntly strengthening their strong ones
nnd neglecting their weak ones.
Out of character Hews happiness. Hap
plnobs never llowa In. A man's heart
should bo to happiness as the homo to so
ciety. What a homo is thnt where the
father deserts his fireside for his boon
companions , where the parents go to
places of/amusement nnd the homo is
made a socondnry matter.
The present invisibility of God is the
result of sin. Before the fall of Adam
aud Eve ho was personal. After 0
ward ho could bo soon in Iho rainbows
and showers and later in the person of
Jesus Christ. As sin has been the cause
pf his invisibility so holiness is the moans
by which mon shnll BOO God.
1'olico Court ,
Only two caaoa were in police court
Saturday morning. John 0. Dionor was
chnrgod with having boon intoxicated.
Dionor said that ho was a farmer in Otoo
county. Ho c.itno to Omaha yesterday ;

liad between $70 and § 80 iu his pocketbook -
book and when arrested ho hadn't a cont.
Ho says ho believes ho was drugged , and
robbed but does not know when or where
it was done. Ho was fined $5 and costs.
Frank Johnson was charged with
drunkenness and acknowledged hia guilt.
Lt coat him § 7.f > 5 to equaro the account.
Foil In a Kir.
About Oo'clock Saturdaymorning Jacob
Schill a stonecutter foil in an oploptic fit
