A llltlo incident wus brought to the at'

About tWulyo years ngo n young girl ,
only about 'thirteen years of ugc , WIIH
brought Into police court charged with
being a disorderly person. She was
fatherless nnd motherless , nnd hud lead
a life which was quite the opposite of relining -
lining in its tendencies. Hut still her
face was round and rosy , and with her
fioldon hair she was a beautiful child.
AVhat to do with her was a < quc.ston ! with
the city authorities siu ) wus undoubted
ly guilty of what she' wus charged with ,
and the only remedy for her CUFO
seemed to bo a short term of
confinement. Just us she wus about
to bo sentenced , however , u well known
attorney who wus present asked to bo al
lowed u feW Inomeiit'd ' con vernation with
the girl , which wus grunted. At its close
'the ' gcnllomun surprised the court by
asking that the girl's ca o bo dismissed ,
jpromiHlng that , he would be responsible
'lor ' her notions m the future. AH it wus
the : cuRlost/way-out of the dilemma , the
i judge was only to glud to comply with
'tho ' gentleman's request , and the self-ap
pointed guardian walked out of the court
room with his protege in charge. Ho se
cured employment for her .us u domestic
I jn u private family , und made her prom-
'ifi'i ' to como und see him as often .PS nos-
Bible. The girl lived up to her agreement ,
nnd the gentleman's kind treatment and
ndvieo which ho gave her in her little
troubles cin\plchly ( ) won her henrt.
Time passed away rapidly and thu little
cirl became ,11 voung woman. She
was . an excellent housekeeper ;
her character was beyond reproach.
She became more und m. re beautiful as
Bho matured in years , until at nineteen
fiho met a wealthy railroad man , who fell
deeply in love with her. She returned
his affections , but when hu asked her
hand in murHugc she refused him. Ho
pressed his suit , however , and finally she
related lo him the story of her early life ,
jjiving it us the reason why she had re-
fiuicd his suit. Her lover was not thus to
be driven from her and she finally gave
her consent to the marriage. The wed
ding occurred shortly afterwards , and
the newly married pair took up their
residence in an elegant homo in u west
ern city , where they now live.
Lnst week u beautiful woman , hand
somely dressed , arrived in the city and
called upon the biwyur above referred to.
At first hd did not recognize her , hut
when she spoke f > ( the little girl whom ho
had taken from\ \ the polieo court years
ngo his eyes were opened , and he know
h B visitor to bo Ids former protege.
Both were deeply aflTectcd by the meet
ing , und fervent wcro the thunks which
the lady gave the lawyer for his kindness
to her in the past.
The next day the lady loft the city for
New York , and yesterday sailed for Flor
ida , whore she will spend the winter on
an extensive plantation owned by her
husband. Through her benefactor the
story reached the cars of u HIB : reporter ,
but tha condition was imposed that no
names should bo used. 'Iho story is a
remarkable ono , and , as remarked be
fore , shows how an act of kindness can
completely change Iho course of a lifo.

In this house lives David C. Rush , an

HOW JCTIORS AKE DU.UVN.
It is more of a tusk to draw a United
States jury than it appears on its f.ice.
The democratic congress of some years
ago , which ( ' 'eternal unrest to its soul ! " )
cut down the jury fee from $3.00 to $ -.00
per diem , also enacted a peculiar law.
The oilice of jury commissioner was cre
ated , and his functions and methods of
procedure peremptorily declared. Dr.
Tildcn is the jury commissioner of this
co irt , and under the laws , he ,
with clerk Frank , selected from
the state- directories , from his
acquaintance and from other sources ,
: } ( IO names These arc written on strips
of paper , put into a hat ami drawn , every
alternate name being doomed to jury
service. Hy this means no blocked jury
can bo imposed on thu court , but also by
this means it occurs that the ignorant
selections are not of .the best ot prime
character. Once , a few years ago , the
jury commissioner nt Lincoln , made up
a draw from the .state poll books and
upon summoning the jury found that
two were tax-paying widows , one had
been banged , four were up on penal sen
tences and halt' thu rest were drunk or
dead. The present jury , however , bccins
to bo fortunately selected t > o far as its
members arc known.
Stnuticd Their I'lnymuto.
A sorrowful looking youngster , his
Head bound up with linen , sat on the
bench in police court yesterday , with
his father , waiting to get the car of the
judge. It appears from the story told by
the boy , ( whose name is Willie Abshur
and who is a son of T. G. Abshur , Nine
teenth : uul Castcllar streets , ) that lie was
assaulted and slabbed by his playmates
Thursday evening , near the Castellur
street school , lie says that thu janitor of
that school hud given him some kindling
and ho was wheeling it homo in a barrow
when ho was stopped by a gang of four
or live boys , who demanded that ho
should turn the wood over to them. This
ho very naturally declined to do , and the
youn" highwaymen then pounced
upon him he says , and assaulted him in
grievous manner , kicking and beating
him about the body aiul face. Not con
tent with this , one of the boys , Joe Snyder -
dor , he says , produced a long knife from
his coat .sleeve and stabbed him in thu
head , producing a cut two inches or so
long and about an inch deep. Medical
assistance was summoned , and his
wounds , though bleeding profuselywere
found not to b < ; of u serious character.
A warrant has been issued for the ar
rest of the alleged assailant , Su.yder , and
his accomplice's. None of the boys tire
over 11 or 10 years of ago.
A Hard Lot.
Such a tough looking aggregation of
females as uppourcd.ln police court yes-
lord ay afternoon han not been seen in
those classic halls for ninny a day. The
circumstances which called them there
was the trial of Hullo Smith , who was
accused of shooting at a man thu night
buforo. Hello refused to plead guilty and
strongly assorted her innocence. She
retained Atlnriiuy Burnhum to defend
her and District Attorney Ritollo ap
peared for thu state. The women were
all sworn , some for thu plaintill'and
some for thu defense. The crime was
not Ranclustvulv proven against' the
woman , and as Dr. Kiukotts tc.stllied that
bho wussull'oriiigfrom fatty degeneration
of thu heart. Judge Stenborg was very
lenient with her , imposing only a line of
$1 and costs. Italia could not bear even
this nlight imputntion against her char
acter , and as sentence was pronounced
bitr.--t into tears. Her companions in sin
succeeded In making up u shake-purso to
nay bur line , and she was oi.co inoro a
tree woman. _
A Had Accident.
AR Mrs. S. J. Cutler was driving down
Douglas street about G o'clock last evening -
ing , two diz/iy females , driving a horse at
a lively pace , suddenly turned the corner
at Thirteenth street and endeavored , by
whipping their horsu , to drive in front of
her. They miscalculated the distance ,
however , and the two vehicles collided
with iv crash and were overturned. Mrs.
Cutler and the two female ? wore thrown
violently to the pavement , thu former
sinking on her sidii. Sh was picked up
in H Homl-coiiscioilH condition nnd carried
into Rogers' drug store nnd a physician
summoned It way found that her face
and head wcro terribly bruised , and her
limbs worn also injured , but no bones
broken. Her husband , : i clerk in thu
Union Paeillo freight uuditor'aotlico , was
Kent for , and upon his arm al conveyed
her to her homo on 1'iorco street. Tliu

injury. Hold vehicles were considerably
damaged. _
, Prospective
That man whoso heart doesnot | soffen
nt. the thought of buckwheat enkeo is .tn-
capnblo of enjoying life to its .fullest ex
tent. Winter has many pleasures that
belong exclusively to itself1eighriding ,
skating and coasting ; but to the average
mortal there are few things more pleas
ing on a frosty morning than a plate of
steaming hot buckwheat cakes a feast
fit for the gods. The prospect , ot pan
cakes to come docs much to a-'lliiy ' tha
dread of the approach of a cold' ' winter.
It may iiot bo out of place togivoa
few points regarding this favorite of the
breakfast table who the producers arc
and who the consumers. Americans arc
the only people who know the full value
of buckwheat , so called from the Gorman
btiehwol7.cn or beech wheat , on account
of its close resemblance to this beechnut.
The English speak of thin grain ns
being very good for poultry and th.tt
it i.s used for food by thu American * ) ami
Hindoos. It is used to some extent for
human food in the northern countries of
Europe , and forms a portion of the
rations of the Uussian soldiers ; but they
have no idea of preparing it properly.
Of all the grains in common uso.it re
quires to bo the most skillfully milled , as
the hull contains certain properties not
conducive to good health , and must bo
entirely removed Itistlrst run through
a scourer and blower , which removes all'
dust and grit. It is then put through 1hc
huller , which takes oil1 ( ho outs-do cover'
ing and leaves the pure white berry ,
which is then ground into Hour. The
most complete mills are in the east , es
pecially in Now York , where the grain is
very extensively raised. The greater
portion of the tlour u ed in this ' -Into had
to bo shipped from the east , and owing tote
to the heavy "uilroad tariffs it was rather
an expcn&iv luxury. Of late Nebraska
demonstrated her ability to raise
buckwheat equal to any state in
the country , and the Omaha
mill has ueea turning It into
u line grade of Hour. It is intended
to increase the plant of the mill next
year to meet the increasing de
mand for llonr and to consume
the increased supply of grain. The man
ufacture of ready raised buckwheat is
carried on extensively in Omaha. This
grade of Hour is a modern invention and
consists merely of the best grade con
taining t Improper proportion of leavening
properties so that the addition of water
makes it ready for immediate use. Its
udvuntngo over the regular grades lies
in the labor saved in preparing it for the.
tab e. All lovers of the festive cake will
rejoice at the increase in the homo pro
duction of the grain and Hour , and bid
the good work go on until it is as plenty
and cheap or oven cheaper than in the
cast. _
An Oniecr Given the Slip.
Ofiicer Murphy , whose b"ut is on Thir
teenth street , heard loud and angry
voices issuing from a disreputable house
cept by a woman named Bates about
11:30 : o'clock last night. Ho proceeded
o investigate , and , in company with
L'runk Kle finer , a block watchman , went
.o the house. There they found two men
md u female indulging in a high old ;
time. Murphy took the two men . in
charge , ami started with them for the po-j
ice station , leaving Kleflher to care for'
the woman until he could return. When
the policeman reached Farnam street j
with his prisoners , one of them suddenly
made : i spring and , tore himself loose
from the clutches of the ollicor
iml ran. * At tho" same time the
other man endeavored to escape ,
md Murphy concluding that a
bird in the hand was worm two on the
run , let the first one go. giving his whole
attention to retaining tde other. He suc
ceeded in marching his prisoner to police
lioudquutturs , where ho was locked up
for the night. He gave his name asMiku
Mulonc.
Murphy , then returned to the Bates
houM1 for the , woman , but she had suc
ceeded in making her escape. It seems
that the man who succeeded in breaking
away from Murphy had a horse and
buggy near the house where he was ar
rested , and while Klcflhor was watching
the girl he suddenly dashed up , untied
his horse and jumped into the buggy.
Klcllhcr endeavored to intercept
him , but the man succeeded in
getting away. The girl took advantage
of her guardian's absence , and she , too ,
disappeared through the back door of the
house and left for parts unknown. Later
at night Murphy saw his escaped pris
oner driving along Fourteenth street and
made a _ rush for him. The fellow , how
ever , did not propose to bo caught , and ,
whipping his horse- into si run , disap
peared up St. Mary's avenue. As ho is
known , his capture will probably bo ef
fected in duo course of tune ,
The Gas Lamps.
A reporter for the BUG met Gas Inspec
tor Gilbert yesterday and asked about
the proposed lettering of the street lamps
so as to show the name of the streets.
"The report I made to the city council
the other " ho said "
night , , substantially
covers the ground. I found Unit the let
tered bands which are to bo placed about
the street lamps could not be made at
less expense l . than -15 cents a pieeo. It
was at first thought that the- lamps could
each bo supplied with the lettered bands
for about JJ i cents each , but I have since
discovered that some of the painters
would charge thatsum for painting.alono.
The matter has been . 'efcrred to a com
mittee and 1 can do nothing until they
report. "
Mr. Gilbert said that the quality of
this gas manufactured was but little bet
ter than It used to bo. The cold weather
had u tendency to relieve the water of
some of the noxious vapors and this ac
counted for a slight change for the better
in thu quality of gas.

Needs a Pecuniary Salvo.
James H. O'Neill commenced u suit in
district court yesterday churning $5,000
damages from his former 'employer ,
Charles S. Higgins. From the petition
filed in the case it would appear that
O'Neill was an employe of Mr. Higgins
up to October 10 , when , as alleged , ho
was arrested at the instance of that gen
tleman , on a charge of stealing napkins
from the establishment. Tins ehaigo
was supplemented by the additional one
that he was a suspicious person. Ho lay
for two days in jail without bearing ,
when ho was taken before Judge Sten-
berg and upon examination discharged.
Mr. O'Neill's character and feelings have
