Nat Goodwin loft yesterday with little of the receipts of his performances to show for his visit'to Omaha , but ho can nurse the satisfaction of having played the steepest game of faro which this city has scon in the past few weeks. In the first place , ho made a winning of n few hundred staked upon the issue of the Chicago-New York base ball game , and all iluringWcduesday's performance he exulted by punishing the champagne as fast us it could be brought from Col. Floyd's to his dressing room. The ell'cet of his potations was very perceptible in his acting ; his speech was jiift a trillo uncertain , he had but the energy to change his costumes oxccpt when it was peremptory and under hty orders details were chopped out. songs expedited and dialogues cut to their utmost brevity. After the show closed , the great comedian primed to the proper elevation of spirits wont out to e/rip the tiger's tail ami frescoe the Ne braska metropolis with the most im proved hues. Ho struck lligglns1 estab lishment eventually and up stair * found ready accommodations at one of tho.faro tables. Now , let it be known that the master spirit of fun mid mimicry is a grim gamester , llu is n "high roller , " ami has a national reputation for danger ; ho wins big when ho wins , and loses lieavilj whim ho takes n loss on , t-o that the gambling establish ment that is not backed for a hard siege , usually decline Mr. Uoodwin permission to "nit In. " When ( loodwin appeared on the scene Wi-dnrMliiy , the dealer grow nervous and bustled a waiter down-stairs to inform Jligglns of the situation. The old man felt good last night , and sent back ordnr , lot mm roll : keep him within lifty.4 The comedian had * about $ ' . ' ,000 in pocket , lie set in from the lirst with his usual slashing game , playing yellows and blues at from -f'5 to $50 a risk. It was about midnight when lie commenced and at two o'clock , after varying for tunes , lie had lost $1,850 , when a turn of fortune cent the curds liiswayundholzlng ] uok by the neck , as is his style , ho pulled out oven in a very few minutes ami com menced to count his clearances. lie be- his cruel tactics which have ffi epletcd so many u banU , betting hard and fast and muljing the most of his luck , lie was ED mo sev eral hundred ahead when tlio fickle deity turned again and his winnings went , the losses still coutimiiiuj making rapid inroads into his pile. 1-roni that time , luck was against him antl although foino big exchanges WITO made ho could not retrieve himself and neither did ho go broke. Hut the game krpt him down and when .at 8 o'clock this morning , : few minntrs before train time , his man acer afmo't dragged him from the table ho had lost * 1,200 ? "Did lie look at all blue ? " a roportei asked Mr. lliggius after the exploit hat been bruited about yesterday morning "Not a bit of It : Mi Goodwin is a gen tlcman and plucky speculator ; lit wouldn't squeal if lo.it a million , As foi his loss here , psliawl that U nothing foi him , win or lose , cither way. " United Presbyterian Synod. The sessions of the United Presbyterian synod yesterday were as usual largely at' tended. The day was devoted to botli business and pleasure , and the comhina < tion of the two worked admirably to- getlior. The morning session opened with the usual devotional exercises.after which considerable business was transacted be fore the noon hour. The synod then ad journed in a body to the parsonage , ad joining the church , where the ladies of the congregation hud spread an excellent repast. Alter thoroughly discussing that branch of the work , the sixteen carnages provided by McCaguo liros. were loaded with the ministers and their wives and the ride about the city began. The route laid out was to drive out Sherman avenue , returning on Saunders street to Cuming , then west on Cuining , mid turning south to Ilanscoui park. From the park the party was driven to Farnam street to obtain a view of the court house , and then a ride was taken through the business part of the city , after which they returned to the church to resume business. The ride was a most enjoyable one. The residence portion of the city was much ddmired by the visitors , as but few of them had seen that part of Omaha before. The thouglitfulness on the part of the Messrs.McCaguo not only resulted in giving lit ; delegates an enjoyable drive , but itMvill also bo beneficial to the city In more ways than one. The session was resumed at ,5 o'clock , Rev. W. \Vainriglit delivering a short but tolling address on the claims of the American Bible society. The special committee on Monmouth college reported that institution in a flourishing condition , and recommended that the synod continue to give it the heartiest support , A similar report was made in reference to the theological tern- inary. The report of the nominating commit tee was submitted and , adopted , as fol lows : For Directors of Synod ,7. C. Wor- nock , J. A. Monticth , William Hurnsidc. .

The evening session opened with a report of the eommittOfe on temperance , as follows : Whereas , The subject of temperance Is oao In which the church always has a lively anel abiding interest ; and , Whereas , The trallic In Intoxicating liquors as a beverage results In intemperance , with nil Its attendant evils ; therefore , resolved : 1 That we , as a synod , reaffirm previous declarations In favor of the entire prohibition of the manufacture and sale of Intoxicating liquor * . 3 That wo favor the strict enforcement of all laws having as their object the restriction and prohibition of the sale of intoxicating liquors as a. beverage. Resolutions were adopted thanking the people of Omaha ami the local church lor their hospitality in entertaining the delegates , and McCaguo BreJs. for their liberality and tliougbtfulness in giving the synod the afternoon drive. An excellent address was delivered by Rev. U , II. Barnes , of Tarkio , Missouri , on the subject of "Interpreting the Hand of God in Providence. " A case of appeal from the presbytery of Kookuk was then taken up , which lasted until a late hour , when the synod adjourned. Stock Yards Exchange. The proposed site of the exchange building at South Omaha has assumed a very lively aspect. Teams are still at work finishing the _ excavations , while workmen are opening trendies for the foundations. The brick and lumber arc being hauled to the spot and two shanties , to bo need by the carpenters and for storing limo , have been erected. The brick work has been let to Mills & Delaney end the wood work to J. Douglas. Mcrccll & Rosonzwoig have contracted to do the painting. The iron work will bo done partly by Virling of Chicago and partly by Schcorpe & Kolccn of St. Louis. The building as planned will be 58x150 feet and threes stories with mansard roof , which is equivalent to four stories. The tower will be 80 feet iu height. The estimated cost when complete is 10- 000. It is impossible to describe the style of the building , but it inclines toward the Queen Anne , anil will bo very imposing in appearance. The groujid iloor will bo occupied by the Stock Yards Co. , and they will nave very complete olliccs. There will also be a barroom , a dining room , and back of that a kitchen and laundry , ice box'es , etc. Tliobankingde- partmcnt will bo on the second , or princi pal Iloor , which will also contain the pri vate business offices , sixteen in number. A corridor runs through the center of the building with outside approaches at both ends , and a balcony , ovof two hun dred feet in length , extending around the south and cast sides. The third floor has a corridor running through the center the same as the second end , and is divided into twenty-eight sleeping rooms. The fourth Iloor will contaiu-tliirty sleeping rooms. The bank ing department will be leased to the same banking firm , and the same way with tiie hotel department. In front of the building n drive is being gratlcel across the low ground to tlio main road. A bridge has been built ever the crook ami a dam is being constructed that will form a hike of several acres , the drive way making a very substantial embank ment to hold the water. This will give ( ho company a good water supply for I ho yards and in winter furnish an un limited quantity of excellent ico. When the improvements are completed the stock yard's company will have some thing to bo proud of. New Cathedral Bishop Worthington is having plans prepared for three new cathedrals to bo built in his diocese. One of these is to bo put up in North Omaha , in Lake's addition , and will cost iibout-$10,000. It will be of the Norman style of architecture and is to bo con structed of brick.

Howard yesterday to a reporter. "It would be mi- soldierlike to tlo so. Of course , on per sonal grouuels 1 hate to lose my aides but 1 can't question the oreler which takes them awayres , I think the policy that Secretary Endicott is pursuing has been so far satisfactory. So far as I know it is meeting with general favor. " The troops at Fort Omaha are working hard at target practice to make up for a portion of the season taken away by having no range.

THE ARRESTS'FOR SEPTEMBER A iMnyhcinlte Held for Trlnl Strucl His Mother The Police Detail Various Criminal Mutters. A Female Knlfer. Mrs. Ilclleu .Barrett , her head swathei In a bushel of ragsj mid a doleful look ii the ono eye which she permitted to peoi through the folds of bandage , came uj to the city yesterday from the stock yards. Shu want straightway to Justice Seldcn's Thirteenth street court , ami there lodged complaint against a certain Mrs. Siinchczoy for felonious assault ami battery.

Even now Mrs. Barrett has twonfy-soven stitches in her face and a lattice work of flaming cut.4 spread ever her visage , M > that she looks more like a cracked doll than the "daoont , pacoful leddy" she claims to be. A constable was sent out to arrest a female Howie. STAllUKD WITH A TUTU. Another account of the story is that the two ladies met in a store , and Mrs. Bar rett demanded that Mrs. Sanohcxoy pay her.f,1) which shu claimed was owing her. Mrs. Saiiohe/ey denied the debt , and then both ladies indulged in a war of words , calling each other- various pet names. Finally Airs. Sanchexey struck Mrs. Barrott with her hand , ami s-cvoral blows were interchanged. The latter lady then invited the former to step out side the store ami light it out. This was agreed to , but once outside Mrs. Barrott scoured a heavy shillolah and ' struck Mrs. Sanche/.oy a number of blows , driv ing her into the store.

She claims that her oldest son has been particularly iibusivo to her and exhibited an ugly spot on her head , where ho had struck lier. " 1 have slaved and toiled for my husband and my children for years , " she said , sobbing , "and this is all I get for it. .1 have tried to do all I could .for my 'boys , and give them livcrything I could ; but they treat me like 'i dog. 1 admit that Lbave to scald them iometimcs , but L ihorp to do it when L. -co them dissipating : coming in every morning at 2 o'clock. " The judge or- Icred that the warrant bo issued at once , ind the young man will be held respon sible for his crime , if such ho has com- mitted. "L have had that woman come to me jefore , " remarked the judge to the re- iorter"and every time shii has had her joy arrested , but just as noon as she ; cos him iu jail felie relents and asks me o release him.

THE WORLD ON WHEELS Strikes in-tho Mines at Carbon , Wyo. , an Louisville , Oolo. , Yesterday. CALLAWAY CLOSES THE MINES A Slioi-t Itranch liino Leased Tin Trouble at Cheyenne The U. r's. Comptroller Hall Notes. Two Mora Striken. ' At Carbon , Wyoming , and Louisville Col. , the men employed in thu Union Pa eific mines btruek yesterday morning When the opening hour of the day ar rived not n man was on the scene , ant throughout the day the mines rematnet idle. idle.Tho The lirst intimation of the Mrlkt reached Union Pucilic headquarters in r telegram from D. O. Clark , at Carbon stating that not a man had appeared foi work at the mines , and , although it was not positively known to bo the caso.il was believed that the men laid oft'on or ders from tho. Knights of Labor head quartern at Denver. This message wiu followed by .similar intelligence from Louisville , Col. During the forenoon , when the ani mus of the miners' proceedings was un known , Mr. Calhiway , in response to a query for his opinion of the strikers' pur poses , expressed himself \ given in the interview in last evening's issue of the Uit : : . as follows : "To cut oil' our coal supply. They don't intend to create a disturbance but they will conspire to bring us to terms by Mopping our coal. Do 1 think they can succeed * Rather not ; wo must have coal and if the di.sturbiiig element does not oome to time in short order we will put iu a substitute force. However. I must understand what they want in this instance before I can speak definitely. " This view of the situation , if sincere at the time of its utterance , was not adhered to by the general manager when the facts came to hand. "Tin : CIIIKKSI : jirsT oo. " Later in the day , lie received from the men at both mining camps the otlieial statement that local lodges of the Knights of Labor had , at a mooting on the night previous , passed resolutions that the men .should not return to work until the last Chinamun had been discharged from the employ of the company ; that coolie labor was , in the judgment of the order , fatal to fair remuneration for labor and that _ their employment by * the Union Pacific company must ecaso. HIOKIHC ! TKKATMr.NT. It is barely possible that Manager Cal- laway smiled when he road this ultima tum , at least his immediate action was Mifjlcienl to a smile a grim , very grim smile. He straightway issued an order for the closing ot both mines. "Why , " said bo to the reporter last evening , "if those fellows want to loaf they shall have the elegant opportunity. Wo shall close tho.iii mines and keep them shut all winter if necessary. " TI1K liOAU'fi MINKS. It is the evident policy of the .Union Pacific management to carry out the light on the firm principles which Mr. Calhiway declared at the com mencement of the diflioultles. The road is independent o.f its supply from the two mines which are located at Louisville. and Carbon. The coal camps belonging to the com pany are little .short of one hundred in number , chief among which are Uock Springs , Almcda , Brass Creek nndGun- nison. "It.will prove n bard job , " said a Union Pacific ollicial last night , "for any strike to shut us out of coal. At Itoek Springs for instance , which wo only work at a fractional capacity , wo can 'double the force and turn out from IfiO to 200 oar loads every day. Aside from this wo have good veins opened , but not under opera tion , at innumerable points through western Wyoming and in Colorado. The mines now'closeilcan remain so for ever and aye , as far as the absolute require ments of the road are concerned. " THE TWO STUIIUNT CAMl'3. Carbon is situated on the main line of llm Union Pacific in Wyoming , about eighty miles west of Cheyenne. There are five hundred minors in the camp , all whites , and the community is almost en tirely made up of these ami llieir fami lies. These mines were the scene last December of trouble , almost of the fcamo uharactcr as the present , and was settled ipiictly through the intervention of Mr. I'alhway. Louisville is in thoColorado mountains , mi the Colorado Central railroad , about 100 injles from Denver. There are about . ' 00 miners and their families there. In both towns the minors nro of mixed iiationality , Welsh and Fin predomiuat- ng , with Scotch. Irish and Seamlinavi ins intermingled. Chinese Terrorism at Cheyenne.

Jill'urent views , though , were brought ipon the uuo.stion , when more and more 1 the almond-eyed class came and ironed white men from their daily iread.
