THE OMAHA DAILY BEE , TUESDAY , FEBRUARY 23 , JL330L S03IE WORRY ABOUT WHISKEY Oity Oonncil of the Capital City De feats a License Eaising Resolution. OTHER BUSINESS TRANSACTED ! Tlie Snloon Klctucnt Orgnnizca for I'rotcolIon Two Stilts Instituted Under tlio Hloounib Ijnvv Capital Notes. ITOOM THE nr.K'H M.xcor.x nvnr.AV.1 At tlio mooting of tlio city council last night a resolution raising - the liquor license to $1,500 was Introduced , but met n hasty ilcath , on motion of Councilman JJllllngsley to indefinitely postpone , the vote being 5 to 8 , Webster , Ilargroaves Mid Cooper putting themselves on record ns favoring the advance. This out of the way , Mr. Webster came lo tlio front with another resolution authorizing police oliicors to enter licensed saloons at any time for tlio pur pose of investigation , which was read the llrst llmo , final passage under a suspen sion of tlio rules being refused. , A communication from sovor.il citizens \vas handed in excusing Policeman Smith of dlHgraccittl and unbecoming conduct , and referred to Messrs. Hillingsloy , Web ster and Dean , with instructions to form ulate charges and investigate them. Mr. IJrock inquired whether Smith could save himself by resigning , when Mayor Ihtrr said such action would bo cowardly in the extreme , and under no circumstances could he countenance it , Tito mayor has always been a supporter of Smith , and his course now is a surprise to everyone. Among ether tilings called up was Iho ordinance for granting right of way to the Northwestern railway across the city , which was killed by a vote of five lo ono , the liurlington lobby being on hand in forco. In dealing with the cases of Mrs. Kato Coakloy and Thomas Carr , convicted of violation of tlio excise law , Mr. Websler Advised the council not to take any action toward cancelling their license until inandamuscd by tlio supreme court. AN ANTI I'ltOIIl U1TION LEAGUE. About 200 voters , mostly Germans , met nt Germania hall Sunday afternoon and formed an Anti-Prohibition league , with the objectof making an organized fight nt the coming charter election , when it is oxpeetcd the temperance people will try to elect a council that will favor increas ing Iho liquor licenses to $2,500. The work done was mostly of a preliminary nature , the completion of the organiza tion being postponed until Sunday after noon next at 0 o'clock , to which time tin adjournment was mado. In tlio mean time a committee of seven , consisting of the president , secretary and treasurer of the league , and a coimnitte.omtm from each ward , will perfect a plan of action and got ready lor an aggressive cam paign. A number of speeches , denun ciatory of what was termed an infringement ofUic rights of fro3 people , were made , Messrs. Kloatsoh , Uorgmann nnd Schweitzer , who spoke in German , being especially pronounced in their Vc- marks. Captain Uillingsly ag pressed lo the platform ami ii'Soe'tv short address , in wlyoh he counselled tlio Law and Vr ( ' " ? league to prosecute and punish the iliigrant violations of the Sloeumb law lictoro making an organized raid on the licensed vendors. Most of our saloon men in Lincoln , said tlio captain , having paid their $1,000 tax , are trying to live up to the terms' of their license so as to avoid losing both their money and their permission to carry on tlio business. They close their saloons nt 10:30 : p. in. promptly , the doors are fast barred all day on Sunday , the screens anil blinds nro removed. there is no gambling , and tlio trallic is conducted ns openly as it is pos iolo for tiny business to bo. Tlio most outrageous disregard lor the law comes from the bawdy houses , restaurants and drug stores , where with out the pretext of a license liquors tire sold at all hours of the day and night , to minors , imbeciles , Indians in faot , to any ono with money enough.to pay for it. It is this class of people , and nartioularly the druggists , who should be looked after. Some of these illegal vendors are church members , and their best patrons nro professing Christians who sit up near the altar and occasionally got hold of it. When these hypocrites are exposed and punished and driven out of business , saiil Mr. IHllingsly , I will be in favor of a vig orous enforcement of the law among the men who have paid their money for li cense and protection , but until then a -war on tlio latter seems uncalled for and unjust. SUmO DNDEIl THE SLOOUM11 LAW. Two actions to recover damages under the Sloeumb law were begun in the dis trict court yesterday. Ono of the actions is brought ny Mrs. Eliza McNair against M. Glass , a saloon kcopor at 224 Tenth street , and George W. JJoyor and Zach Hammoll , the sureties on his bond , a judgment of if 5,000 and costs being asked. Mrs. MoNair alleges that she was married to ono Charles W. MoNair on July 0 , 18S1 , nnd that two children , Walter and Italph , have been born to them. Her husband is by trade a bookbinder , and the family are dependent upon him for Support. When sober ho had. steady employment at $15 a week , which gave them a comfortable living. Last fall McNair begun to drink Tiard , nnd Glass , whoso place ho frequented , was notified not to sell him any liquor. On the 22d ot January , the plaintiff assorts that Glass , in violation of this notice , supplied her husband with strong drink , in consequence of which he became in toxicated and went to sleep in the street on his way homo. The day was a bitterly cold one , ami MoNuir's hands and feet were badly frozen , his right hand to sucli nn extent that the lingers and thumb had to bo amputated , incapacitating him for work , and leaving his family in a sullor- ing condition. Lewis & Lewis appear as attorneys for Mrs. MoNair. The second action is ono brought by Judge Masim , acting for Mrs , Sarah L. Minick and her three minor children , against Schwarz & Meyer , the plaintiff's damages being put at $ D,000. Mrs , Bliniofc is the wifeI of John W. Minick , nnd the mother of his thrco children , Alice , Forbes and Herman. John , when sober , is a good blacksmith , who up lo March lust worked industriously , and pro vided his family with a good living and many comforts. About tlio 10th of March. Mrs. Minick says , tlio defendants opened a saloon at 123 South Tenth street , and her husband got into the habit of stop ping in there for a drink. The custom grew on him and ho soon became n con stant hanger-on at the ntiloon spending nil his timu and money thorn to the utter neglect of his family , who were soon re duced to a condition of actual poverty nnd want. Thu saloonkeepers wore noti- lied not to sell John any more liquor , but they ignored the order , and now the real Euflorors ask that they be compelled by the court to make reparation to a degree at least for tint misery entailed. THU DAY STOCK Iir.LK.YSED. The attachments on the stock of Annie M , Day , tlio bankrupt jeweler on Kloventh street , nre to bo withdrawn , an nmicablo arrungoment having been made between the mortgagee and attaching creditors. When Mrs. Day failed she g.ivo u morlgago on her stock to liei urothor-m-law , Charles II. Day , foi $5,000 , to secure u former cash loan , ami also one to Max Meyer & Uros , of Omaha , for $1,000 , for goods bought of them. Eastern creditors then c\mo iu anil served attachments' to the amount elf f 1,01)0 ) , and n light for the' possession ol the stock seemed imminent. It is now ngrecd , however thai the mortgagees shall bo given possession and ullowed to cell Iho goods on making n bond in the sum of $75,000 , with a provis ion that they \vill di pose of them to tlio best possible advantage. The mortgages nre also to guarantee that the proceeds of tlio sale will be at least $0,000 , that nmotinl having been mutually agreed on as n fair wholesale valuation. IllltKP MKXTIOX. Charles A. Tucker Ims filed a petition in tlio district court alleging that ho is the owner of an undivided twenty-nine Ihirticlhs of lots 1 and 2 , block 57 , in Ibis cily , and asking lliat a guardian ad lltetn bo appointed for Francis K. Steers , tlio infant owner of Iho remaining thirtieth , and n partition of the property made. The newspaper men who wai through the mud to the stale house yes terday were considerably mortified to lind that the olllclals were observing Washington's birthday , anil no business was being transacted. The work of the Law nnd Order Long-no was the subject chosen hymost ol the Lincoln minlster.-i as n text Sun day. At the Episcopal church Hcv. Alexander Allen preached a strong ser mon in endorsement of the reform , as did llov. C. C. 1'ierco nt the Uaptist church. In the evening llov. Lewis Gregory took the same tliume at the Con gregational church , and was followed bv Attorney Lewis and President Sawyer , who explained thn work and desires of the League , and solicited tlio support of all law-abiding citizens. Miss Maggie Lyons , well known in Lincoln as a lormer clerk in porno of tlio leading stores , was married at her homo near Dennett Sunday to Mr. II. M. Kico. The tire department had a short run yesterday noon , in answer to a call from 1C and Fourteenth btrcets , where n value less shantv was consumed. Sheriff Melick is indulging in the lux ury of a bad cold. The district and slate supreme courts will both convene to-day. In the former there will bo a call of the docket , and in llio-lnttor a decision on tlto Lincoln bond case is looked for. STATE A11UIVAT.S. W. II. Snell FnirburyL ; H. Davis. Wn- hoe ; E. D.

IJoston Journal : Though the moder ate nso ot the bicycle may bo an invigor ating titul pleasant exercise , it is never wholly innocent , and its abuse , as is now so prevalent , in trying to break the fastest record , is fraught with great danger gor to the rising generation careless of consequences in the heyday of youth , and ignorant of the structure and func tions of the tissues involved in this exercise. All riders arc famil iar witli the nervous condition or tremor ojlowjng a loss tour , caused by the con- Inueil succession of small , sudden shocks ; o the spinal column. This often loads .o obscure spinal irritation , in spite of , lie most delicate springs , rubber cushions and tires , etc. More or less injurious concussion is unavoidable , oven on the smoothest roads. Hut this is not the whole nor the worst evil , especially to jrowlng boys , to whom a bicycle ip as udispensabfo as a slqd or skates. To ; ully understand the danger , let' us "ook nt the miiohino and the parts jitcrostcd. As now constructed tlio seat is reduced to its smallest possible size. It is only wide enough to receive behind the bony prominence on which we sit tapering rapidly forward to a long narrow horn , upon which rests what the surgeons call the perineum , or that/portion of tlio middle Imo of tlio body between the legs which contains tlio urcthrnl canal from the bladder to tlio pnbie bones in front. This canal is lined with a very _ delicate mucus mem brane , and in its posterior half is sur rounded by the prostrate gland , about the size of a horse chestnut , protected by n membrane. This delicate part is what rests upon the horn of the bicycle seat. From tlio position of tlto rider nnd the propelling of tlio machine by the great lengthening of the legs , which can not. therefore , support the body's weight , all this is thrown upon the perineum very much as in riding on n rail. The hips are thrown forward on the thighs slightly in easy riding , but notably in fast riding and hill climbing. In this position very little of the weight can be convoyed to the pedals by the al ternately extending legs. Even should the pressure be nothing on this part in smooth and level places it must be very injurious on the unequal surfaces of the best country roads , and on a stretch of pavement extremely so. It is all very well to talk of the beauti ful gliding motion of the bicycle , but oven the best rider will feel a little "shaky" after twenty miles of it. The pressure alluded to , whether gentle and continuous , or with occasional jolts , must in growing boys cause irritation and con gestion of the prostrate and surrounding mucous membrane , producing wast of tlio tiny muscles which have an important duty to perform , and , by stimulating the abuse , pcrimps over-sensitive parts , lead to most unfortunate results. Another mischief is that the smaller the boy the proportionally larger machine ho will try to ride ; his feet will barely touch the pedals , ana support no weight , all of which is inevitably thrown on the above named part. Even in excessive horseback riding with the wide saddloand , the weight supported by the pressure of the thighs and by stir rups , the vitality of this region rapidly degenerates. What , then , can bo ex pected from the bicycle tiny saddle , which convoys every jolt to the spine , and presses upon partsthatcannotsiifely bear it ? A distinguished English .physician has claimed for tlio bicycle that its great advantugo as a healthful exorcise vriv * that it gave all the muscular movements of walking , with tlio weight taken from the feet and legs ; but a moment's reflection will show any ono that the transfer of this weight from tlio feet to the perineum is a dansoroiis advantage. The often- repeated shocks predispose , unquestion ably , to "IJriglit's disease. " As ti-jo advances the prostrate gland naturally tends to enlatge , and to rentier smaller the canal which runs through it ; iu tlio name of prudence and common sense lot us not lay in youth tlio sure foundation for a premature development of what comes , under most favorable cir cumstances , all too soon often rendering a man'ri declining years a burden and u hopeless misery. \Vhat is the remedy ? If the bicycle ( or the tricycle , which is somewhat better ) bo retained for athletes and adult riders , lot the seat for growing boys bo so widened that the body may 1)0 sup ported by the parts and muscles destined for the purpose with n longitudinal median slit about an inch wide , as in the cavalry saddle , to reeeivo the parts that would otlusnviso bo subject to injurious pressure with three wheels and softer springs. This might require a modification of the principle of propul sion more by a forward than u downward motion of the legs. The danger under stood , makers could easily guard against it , and , though the machine might bo less rapid , it would bo safer and supply a healthy' exorcise for thu rising genera tion , % \ hich , as now constructed , it does not. THE APPROPRIATION BILLS The Tardy Work of tbe House Committees Creating Some Comment. ONLYTWO HAVE BEEN REPORTED Holding Them ttnck n Necessary Evil to Unnulo Congress to Knnot liORil- Intlon Comparison AVIth Other Congresses. Slow Committee " \Vorlc. WASHING-ION , Feb. 23. The tardiness of Iho house committee In bringing In their np- uroprlatlon bills Is nttractlnp attention ami tiiifiivornblo comparisons with what \\as tlono the lost two congresses , when nil but two of the fourteen general appropriation bills wcro under the contioKof one commit tee. The distribution of the work of making up tlio appropilatlon bills among several committees has not thus far verified the pre diction of those who brought It about , that the bills would be brought In eailter In the session. The appropriation committee still has the work of framing the salary bill for the whole civil establishment , the general pension and dellclcucy bills , the District ot Columbia bill , the fortifica tion bill , and the stindiy civil bill , that comes last and gathers to gether thu odds and ends that have been left jehlnd ; yet this committee icpoited the pen- ilon bill on the flth of February , and has the District of Columbia bill and an urgent de- clency bill ready to rcpoit to the house. July a single ono of the other'committecs hat , under the now order of things , Imvo ihargo of appropriation bllh Itai been heard 'rom , the committee on Indian affairs Mr. iVelborn , chairman which reported the In- illaii bill on the llth ot February. It Is true .hat the other committees nro working on .heir appropriations , and ono or two of them lave made considerable progress , but It Is a 'act that will hardly bo gainsaid that the leg- slatlvoeffectiveness of those committees was njured when they were given the function ot appropriating money , just as the efficiency of hecommlltec on appropriations was impaired when It was permitted to assuuin the power : o legislate instead of being strictly confined to the preparation and control ot appropria- ion bills pnro and simple. Only two bills , the pension and Indian hills , have been to- potted up to this date. In the first session of the Foity-seventh congress six appropria tion bills wcro reported to the house beloro the conospondlng date namely , the'lortlli- cation , postoHicc , consular and diplomatic , Indian , military academy and agricultural bills. This included two of tlio most Impor tant bills and nearly one-half of tlio general appropriation bills. In the iiist session of the Forty-eighth congress the appropriation bill came in more slowly. Tlio navy , military academy , and postofllcobills weio rcpoited In Jannarv. Tlio Indian bill was reported March ! 39 , and the pension bill March 22. Five otheis were repotted In April , two In May and three in June. That was the ses sion piecedlng the piesidontial election , and the public business was licliiin abeyance to give the imtv leaders a chance to make cam paign capital. Only two of the general bills were sent to tlio president until .luly. All of them were approved , either on the-Uh , stli or 7th of July , except the military academy bill , which was approved March 31 , and the agri culture bill , appWod June 0 , What congress can lie when It chooses Is apparent from what it does do in the short session. Take the last session , lor instance. Two appropriation bills were reported In Decem ber , seven in January , and four more before February 23. Tills Included most of the largest and most dilllcult of the general np- proprlatipns ; in fact , all of the appropria tion bills except the foitilication bill. It is a fact well known to experienced members of congress that if congress desires to enact .leg islation It must bo done before all the appro- pi iations necessary lor the maintenance of ' the civil and military services of tho' coun try shall have been provided for. When that Is done if is impossible to keep a quorum of members in the city , borne aio driven away by the hot weather , others have business interests at homo that are more important to them than the passage or. gen eral laws , and others are constrained to go home to icpair their political fences. Ihieo of tlio bills that remain under control of Mr. Itandall's committee are the bills that are usually held bade until necessary legislation or measures designed to make party capital shall have been attended to , They aio especially convenient for that purpose , because ono of tlio bills the salary bill- must bo passed before congress adjourns , and tlio sundry civil and general defi ciency bills arc , from the nature of their con tents , proper to bo held open until a late date to fill up the gaps made by the other appro priation bills. , The commute on postofflces and postroads has prepared Its bill providing tor the ex penses of the postollico derailment for the next fiscal year. It will anpropiiato § 54,000- 000. The committed will leave out of the bill any provision for subsidizing ocean lines , and the light on the bill will turn on that question. Personal Paragraphs. C.
