Thij morning the wide-awake dr ;
goods houoo of Oocko & Morgan have
something now to say to the readers o
the BEE. The firm has jumped into i
remarkably largo business for a comparn
tively now honso , and the class of goodi
kept by them and the wonderful bargalm
ofl'erod indicate that thay not only pro
pose to keep their trade , bnt to Incroas
it. They are demonstrating that enter
prise and fair deal will draw trade to thl
city from a largo extent of country
Each mill brings thorn many orders , in
addition to their homo trade , and they
take such special pains to satisfy thoai
mall customer * , that this part of thoi
business is rapidly Increasing also.
It Is suggested that one of the way
to stop the false alarms , BO frequent elate
late , is for the council to amend the fir
ordinance so that that the mlnnto men
and others will not bo paid any extra
amount if the alarm proves to bo false
and then there will not bo any object ii
any man connected with tbo dopartmen
allowing any false alarm , and no one can
charge that they may bo Interested in
having false alarms , as Is now so often
intimated , and perhaps unjustly. Lc
the men be paid well enough for attendance
anco at actual Bros , to that they ran of
ford to tnrn out for fatso alarms without
extra pay , and every man will then be
directly Intereited In detecting whoever
i guilty of sending iu a ifalso ono. This
cUungo Is tatd to li ve been tried very
Luccoiafully in other cities of this eize.
To ilio I'ubliu.
My wife , Mary Geidev , having left my

NEA/TLYllABBED ,
A Pair of 1'lckpockcts Arrested on
the Oirous Gronmlp.
Yesterday a neat capture was made by
Deputy Marshals Edward Bates and
George Guanolla. They were watching
for crooks at the circus grounds , and soon
noticed two young men evidently trying
to pick pockcti , and keeping closa on
their track saw ono of them put his hand
Into the pocket of a lady , but instead of
grabbing the follow too soon , aa is
generally the case , or else too late , they
so managed It that just the moment the
fellow had gained possession of the lady's
pnrae , they nabbed htm and his compan
ion. There was nothing that they could
say In defense , and the ono in poeseesion
of the pocket book frankly confessed
that ho had taken it , but said that ho
was out of money , food and wore , and
that ho was too proud to beg , even If not
too proud to steal. Tbo two were taken
to the city jail and put Into the steal cell.
They gave their nsmos as James Howard
and William Keating. The lady whoso
pocket was picked was Mrs. Lizzie Hasty ,
who lives at No. Ill Washington avonuo.
There was only $1.10 in the pocketbook ,
so that they could have made no big haul
for the risk of being cent to the pontten
tlary.
DELAYS OF THE LAW ,
Another illtoli in the Prohibition
Case .
Yesterday was the time sot for the
hearing of the Injunction cases by Judge
Connor at Glanwood , bnt Instead of the
day developing any sensational features
in the prohibitory fight , a continuance
was granted until this morning , this be
ing by consent of the attorneys on both
sides. The eases brought before Judge
Aylesworth hero seem to have been con
tinued indefinitely , it being understood
that they will not come up until the
cases at Glonwood have been hoard.
Come and see goods and prices at the
new boot and shoe store of R. 1 , Skllea
No. 102 , Main street ,
The Two-Thirds Majority ,
Once upon a tlmo a fellow who under
stood human nature pretty well , and who
delighted to play upon it , wont into the
banks of the town in which ho lived , anc
asked the cashiers and other skillful ac
countants what ho represented to bo a
problem that had baen Riven up by al
the school teachers , It being : "Whal
two whole numbers multiplied together
would make seven1 ? The expert ao
conntants studied over It quito a while ,
and several gave It up , when ono slmpli
fellow solved It by saying , "seven anc
ono. "
This is abont the way with the ques
tion raised by the mayor , " what is two-
thirds majority of a council of six mom
bors ? " If there had boon no question
raised , and such an air of mystery pu
around the matter , any school-boy woulc
say "two-thirds of six ia four , " but now
ho has got the brains of two or throe ol
his pots all mixed up and t'rad ' out over
hla discovery that two-thirds of six ia
fivo. This naw system of mathematics
may do In some cases , but the people de
mand a return to the Jefforsonlan sim
plicity. _ _

One of the meat unique adventures
that over came to our attention was ro
latod by John J. Vnndorvcor , who came
In last night. John works the road for
Von Brunt , Thompson it Co , , of Counci
Bluffs , and yesterday took a team anc
buggy to drlvo from Crete over to Dor
Chester. Ho Is addicted to the weed ( the
moral cf this will
story bo found a
itrong ono against the tobacco habit ) one
beguiled the tedious hours of the drive
by puffing a fragrant Havana. Tbo top
of hla bugqy was down and he did not
know of the combination which the
breeze and his cigar hid formed against
him until the smell of burning leather
caused him to tnrn around , when ho
discovered that the Inflammable buggy
top was In a brisk blaze. Ho stopped
and tried to put the fire out , bnt succeed
ed in doinp nothing but burning hla
fingers badly. Ho then got a wreuch
and attempted to take the top off the
buggy , but ho could not work it. Finally
in despair he jumped into the buggy
and Jaying whip to the team dl.
rooted hli eff rta toward keeping the
flame in the back part of the vehicle by
rapid motion , The poole who mot him
? eve him the road without quarrelling
for half , and the farmers along his route *
dropped thofr Hues and started at the
vision of tbo filming chariot in open-
mouth astonishment , He finally pulled
nto Dorchester with all the leather top
jurned off , and bows burned In two. Ai
a spectacular entertainment it nas a tno-
cess , bnt ho says iho wear and tear on
ho finances and nerves are so great that
ho couldn't bo induced to repeat it.
Lincoln ( Nob. ) Journal.
Mr. Vandorvoor haa been at homo * ov-
eral days with his hands tied up , and has
ircscrved a mysterious sllenco as to how
10 hurt thom , merely saying that ho had
mot with a little accident. .Now , that the
mnds are abont healed , the secret comes
out , and Van owns the corn , Ho saya
that If the buggy top had boon of such
material as on the buggies sold by him ,
netoad of cheap cotton , it would not
lave caught fire , and ho will turn the ill
uck Into an argument to clinch his own
rado moro closely. J. J , is well now ,
and will soon bo after the trade In Ne-
> raaka with usual liveliness.
