A HORRIBLE AOOIUENT , A "Woman Seriously lliirncd "While a Fire With Koro- icno Oil , Another ono of thoao sad dtaantcrs caused by the foolish use of koroiono occurred yoitordey morning. The victim is woman , Sirs. Mary Ebright , stopping at the hoaao of Duke Gregory , near the corner of Tenth and Oapltol avenue. It appears that the woman , who la ralhor simple minded , was told by Mrs. Gregory to start the fire , abont 10:30 : this morning. While Mrs. G.'o back was turned , Mra. Ebright took the kerosene can nnd poured a lot of oil on the fire , which she hod started before hand. This would have dona no harm , and no acl- dent would have occurred bad it not been that eho placed the coal oil can on tbo stove. It waa not long before the bottom of the can molted off. A fearful explosion then occurred and the unfor tunate woman was Boon ono mass of flame , her clothoa having been not on fire instantly. She rnshtd screaming to the bedroom where aho throw horaolf writhing In horrible agony on the bed. Dor cries brought nsfistanco nnd the flimcs wcro speedily extinguished. The poor woman was placed in the hands of Dr. W. 0. Spaldlng and Dr Stone for treatment , and her terrible Buttering ; , BO far as possible were alleviated. The woman waa terribly ecarrod by the fire , her neck , shoulders , breast , body and llmba being blackened and charred. It la doubtful whether she will recover , as aho la onfFtjring the most intense agony. The woman nuy bo remembered RS the ono who cjuna to Omaha about a mouth oinco to hunt up hcr-hiuband whom she claimed had left her to run oil'with another woman , She came Into thu county court just a few moment ? after her hujbind , Ezra Ebright had procured a uiarrla o li cense , and nine a that time has not been able to find him. She has been living with n lady In the country. Mr * . Van- dercoop , for ( ho Q few weeks and Tuesday night came to the house of Mr. Gregory , f.nyinp that eho proposed to make another hunt for her husband , and if pneslblo find him. The woman's sainl-lmbecllo con dition h escribed to the fact that she was beaten by her husband some time ago with a heavy ox-goad. Since that time she has oniTdred paralysis which 1m all'icted her brain. The fire oiled out the department , but no etrcam was thrown , as the blaze naa speedily extinguished. Later The unfortunate woman suf fered In untold ngony until about 7 o'clock last evening , when death came to her relit1 f. The immediate cause of death originated from a swelling of the throat and month , which shut ell' her wind. She was badly burned In the mouth.

THE MISTAKES OF MILLER , Mayor Boyfl Points Ont the Blunders ol tbB "Veil MconiDg1' ' Doctor , Ami Mkctchcs Historical Sconcn Uc- tu'ocn the OinaliA Coriiiulttco nnd tlio Ilnllrond Man ngcrs In 1871 , A reporter of the BEE mot Mayor Boyd , yesterday afternoon , and told thai gentleman that the columns of the paper having n circnlation double that of the Herald and Republican combined , wore at his service to reply to the letter of Dr. Miller in the Herald of the SlUh Inst , The mayor replied that ho did not think it was necessary to say anything further on the subject , except perhaps it might bo well to correct the doctor In ono or two Instances. ' 'First , I never taid , nnd nothing that I have over written couldbo so construed , that 'Omaha has boon paying $40,000 per year , to the Union Pacific Ilillroad com pany , for many years , for something in return for which Omaha baa not received an equivalent. ' What 1 did say was that Omaha and Douglas county wore paying abont $40,000 per year Interest on bonds donated to the Union Pacific Rrallroad company. Thla of course , can bo vcrl ficd by the books in the county and city treasurer's bflicep. "Next , D. % Miller says : 'Mayor Boyd was not among us in those days. ' It Is true that for n few yoara I roildod on a farm near Fort Kearney , bat I came back to Omaha again in the uprlnp of 18G8 , while the negotiations In regard to the location of the bridge nnd transfer were being discnesoi ] . In 1871 , a com mittee consisting of E Lowe , Frank Mnrphy , J. I. Redlck , Frank Smith , P W. Hitchcock , St. A. D. Balcombo and inyeolf , visited Boston on belulf of our people. Then , for the first time , did wo learn that the oom- piny had determined by the adoption of a resolution that its terminus was In Iowa. " Thla committee returned and advlncd that the bonds ba not d cllv- crcd until the Union Pacific gave the city n written contract to do and perform certain things contained In the written contract acknowledged January 20 , 1872 , the provlslono of which were published In ynur paper on the 27th inst. "Another inlslako the well-moaning doctor makes , and that is where ho says 'a purpose Is disclosed to revive old rail road controversies and fan old prejudices against the Union Pacific railroad. ' I am euro that our people have always foil very friendly to the Union Pacific , nnd that company never caked for anything from the city In the shape of 'right of way * across streets , or the vacating of parts of streets , but what has been grant ed. The great trouble has bean , ss I have bsforo stated , the Now York and Boston management of tlo Union Pacific have alwaya acted In such a manner as to causa our people to think that great cor poration was un/rlendly to ns.Vo were always friendly to It , and all wo wanted was our rights according to contract. "As an individual , the Union Pacific never has had a bettor friend than my self , and as mayor I shall bo glad to as sist in doing any and all things necssjary to promote Its interest. At the same time I am phcad In a position where It is ray swotn duty to guard and protect thu Interest of the people of Omaha. Thla I propose to do in a spirit of the utmost fairness to all concerned " WHAT THEY SAT. Ibo Commnuts of the Hastings 1'rcss Upon the Dclear ot the JE.v- Cliiunplons , The following taken from the Hastings Gazette-Journal , bears npon the fames recently phycd between the club of that city and the Union Pacific , and will bo read with considerable interest : Since the day when basa ball first became - came of such importance as a national apart It ( s probable that in no game has us much interest been centered as there was in the series cf games played between the U. P.'B of Omaha and tbo Hastings Rods , on last Saturday and Sunday. The games were arranged with the U. P.'s on their own proposition , as In no other way would they play. The people in this city , with the exception nf a few of thu mure enthusiastic , wore confident that the Rods would ba beaten end are therefore not feeling BO very bad over the outcome. On the oth er hand Omahi Is fairly howling with joy and the papers of thai city will for some tlmo bo teeming with items of their vie lory. While they , indeed , have aomo- thlug to crow over , it would bo well for thorn to romeiubar that the Hastings team are entitled to a little bouoQt. It is not our intention to tan at the Omahas with the fact that some fraud was used to obtain the victory , yet each was tbo case , when wo look at the fact that they had tha nmplro fur two games Saturday and Sunday afternoons allowing the Hast ings the nmplro for ono game only. The umpiring of Saturday's game by the Omaha nmplro was a fair square deal and not a kiok was made , Neither wan thcro a kick made on the Hastings umplro , but the umpir ing In the Sunday afternoon game by Mr. Garnoau , the aamo that umpired Satur day's game , and who Is an Omaha man , was about the rankest pleca of work that was over perpetrated on the diamond , nd ho was repeatedly hisjed by his own people. However , ho won the game for the U. P.'a , and thut settled it , bnt wo doubt If ho over has a hand In another game , especially when the Huntings team In Interested. Army Notes , "No , said Gon. Howard yoitfrJay to a BEE reporter , " every report from Utah Indicates that there will bo no trouble there among the Mormons and the 0 en tiles. Still the military are still kept In readiness , for you know that It It always beat to bo on ono'a guard. "I think , " ho continued , that the Mormons doubtless believe what they constantly aver , that the good people of the laud are their bitter enemies. It ia bard for them to comprehend that big amy Is a crime , In every state and terri tory , and must bo suppressed. Still evtry kindly person desires that the law con cerning It shall bo enforced firmly , of of course , but without Inhumanity. Several men trho have been wrongly In structed and who have without the prop er knowledge committed the criino will bo doilt with by the largo hearted judges of the United States without vindlotivouves or hatw. " Oca , Brock las received a letter from Pj ) , MorvoTr , ia command of the Omaha J troops at Orlttfield , in wtlch ha Bays 'that ' ever j thing Is quiet in that region , and that there Is not tli9 ( lightest sign of an Indian outbreak. The troops are becoming very restless and anxious to bo tent btfck to their rcspectivo posts. Lieut. Park , lot the Twonty-fiist infantry - fantry , and Lieut. Palmer , of the Ninth Infantry * stationed at Crhsfield , and Llent. Noyos , arrived in the city ycatcrday and will take part In the nfla competition. The campa will bo ready in a day or to for occupancy by the competitors. Ar rangements have been made to mots the men at the camp , the work of furnishing the provisions being in the hands of local roitanrantcr. A SPECIAL SESSION , Tno Olty Council Holds a Sliort Moct- ItiK to Amend an Ordinance. Yesterday afternoon Mayor Boyd is BUod the following special call : . Jnly 29 , 1883. A apodal meeting of the council Is hereby called for the pnrpojo of passing an ordinance amending an ordinance passed on the 21at , ( not , . In regard to the iesno and sale of paving bonds , the meeting to bo hold thin Wednesday even ing tho20th , Inst. , at 8 o'clock. JAMES E BOVD , M yor , WILUAM F. BKI'UEL , 0. S. GooDiuuu , 0. 0. TllIUKE. LOUIS SCIIUOKUKK , MICHAEL LEE. The mooting was called to order by Prcsidont Bochol , with Meeara. Bailey , Goodrich , Lee , Loader , Schrocder , and Thrauo present. The amended ordinance was road , agreed to , and passed. In drawing up the originalfive Instead o ! six per cent interest , was Inserted , and was not noticed nntil City Treasurer Back came to maku hla tran script. An It Is required that a copy of the ordinance shall accompany the bunds to whoever purchases them , this mlttako had to bo corrected before they could bo sent out. An effort waa made by Councilman Behm , who put in an nppearanca after roll call , to get up a dlaautslon about grading matters , but the intense heat made other members deairoui of getting away as qaickly as they could. Council- nmn LGO suggested that bonda might ba Issued for the purpoco of raising fund a with which to do grading , but the mayor thought that all the bonds to be Itsued ought to bo for the purpose of p\ving Hosuggostod ! that grading could bo done without too hsuinco of bands , and urged that work ought to ca commenced right away on the griding of. Harnoy streets. The council then adjonrnad. PILFEEEED WEDDING PEES- ENTS , The Silver "Water Service of the Chris tian Gliurcli , Stolen Some Time Ago , Recovered. When Mllcholl Flemmlng joined the jrcat throng of happy benedict ! ' , sorao ; wo or throe wooka ago , among the nu merous costly and nsefol presents ro- colvcd , waa u magnlficant silver water service from two of hla best thought of young friends. Whether thin confiden tial and elaborate outburst of good will , long life and happlnos ? , was considered strangely by Mr. Flommlng ia not qtated , bnt It Ins been said that ho manifested no little surprise at receiving so valuable a present from ouch a source. However , nutters went along merily and no questions were asked. About the same time that Mr. Flemmlng's marriage took place , or soon thereafter , the pastor of the Christian church , on West Farnam street , discovered that the silver water service of his sanctuary was missing had bcoii pilfered bnt no very actlvo efljrts wore made at the time to discover who the thieves were. Nevertheless Officer Burdlsh has been quietly working on the case ever since nnd yesterday , in Mr , Flemming'a wedding presents hu found the stolen property. It was taken and returned to the pastor of the church , [ t Ia not a very hard matter to Imagine that Mr. Flemmlng and his yoni g bride were somewhat surprised , bnt they made no objections against giving np the proporty. The thieves are Known , bat on account of their families , who are very rcapecta- slo people , It is understood they will not bo prosecutsd for this oflfcnso. u ' > iTr TiuJgo Dandy Ilc-UsuoB Ilia Order , lor Blnrahal IJIorbowor , to Tnko the Smith Stock of Goods. Virtually Messrs , Lowy and Cole in ; heir scramble to gain postojslon of the Smith clock of gocdi , have gained the day. At least It would look tlut way tea a man np a tree , providing ho wan not too high up. Ycalerday morning Judge Dundy , overruled the motion of Sheriff Milltr's attorneys , to sat aside his orJnr , ; hat tha goods should bo turned over to the United States marahal. Then he coupled with the order a peremptory demand that tbo goods bo turned over at onco. Marshal Blorbower wont to Sheriff Mil ler and served the order , but Sheriff Miller bogged to bo given a chance to pet a decision out of Judge Wakely in the matter before ho obeyed , and the marshal granted it to him , That decision will bo liven this morning. The sheriff nays ho lain this kiud of a fix : If ho rifaeca to turn the goods over to the marshal , then tie will be thrown into jail for contempt of the United Status circuit court ; en the other hand , if he docs turn thorn over , w.thout a decision from the district court , on whlnh to fall back , it it becomes notojaary , the attaching cred itors eay they will hold him responsi ble. Toot is the way the thing stands now. A Demurrer Filed , Mr. P. 0 , Hawea , the attorney for Jerry Collins , filed a demurrer to the In formation yesterday , and ho said to a re porter last evening that ho felt confident of having his man turned loose th'a morning. The demurrer sets np tlut If all th ) facts alleged against Collins are true they era not aulllclent to convict him. Judge Novllle will render his de cision this morning , as to whether the demurrer will bo admitted or rejected. A thing of beauty Is a joy foroTor. Sa [ 9 Poziim'ft Complexion Caro.

II Bothard , the man accused of writing tbo obscene letters to Rov. Pcarao , the Methodist minister of Urbann , Ohio. Bothard does not deny that ho wrote the letters , but says that ho must have been intoxicated at the time as ho do03 not remember writing them. "Yon can't blame mo" ho continued Ir a broken way , Why jast BOO here. Look at my caie. Ton years ago I was a Methodist minister , aud a member of the Cincinnati conference with the Rev. I'carno. What did ho db' Ho wont to nndormlno mo and succeeded In haviof mo turned out. I came out west hero ; accumulated some property , wont back to Ohio n few months elnco and married a lady , a cultured nnd religions woman , and as I suppotod , a virtuous ono , But trio man Poarno sot to work and traduced iny crmactor in the presence of my wife , and succeeded In lending her astray. Hence , as soon rva I had positive evidence of my wife's guilt , I got on a spree. Poarno had mo arrested and thrown into jail. I was soon released on a premise to coma to Nebraska. Do yon wonder that I fdel bitterly towards htm ? But still I don't think I wrote those letter j ; if I did , I certainly don't remember do Ing so. " 1'EUSUNA.Li. D.
