MANY MYSTERIOUS SIGNS , The KnlRhlfl Advertise n Meeting with Clmlk Odds and KndsA Queer Divorce Suit , 13to. , Police Notes. War On tha Trnmps. The trial of four tramps arraigned in police court Saturday morning , brought of light some interesting facts concerning depredations which the "organized cle ment" of vagrants is responsible for. The four mon were John Collins , John lloach , Frank Lewis , nnd William Kelloy. They had boon arrested by Special Policeman Van Orman , assisted by some of the farmers living in Florence and about Sulphur Springs , It appears from the testimony intro duced in police court that for the past few days an organized band of tramps , numbering about twenty-five or thirty , lias been holding high carnival in Flor ence and the surrounding country. They liavo been entering houses , bulldozing tlio women occupants into feeding them , and otherwise running things with a high hand. It has become so that the people in that part of the county arc nfraid to venture out after dark , or in the day time , unless well armed , for fear of running afoul of these rull'uuiH. Fri day afternoon these fellows wcro par ticularly bold , and wcro responsible for several acts of lawlessness. Ono of the most daring was the highway robbery of two men on the St. Paul tracks , near Sulphur Springs. The work was dona on tlio "looking class" plan. The rob bers , four in number , ( with a large ro- ecrvo force scattered about in the grass ) stopped a .aboring man who was going homo after his day's work , with the re mark , "What makes your faeo so dirty ? " The fellow innocently returned , "I guess you're mistaken ; my face is clean. " f'No , it isn't ' , " returned the highwayman , "tako this looking glass and see for yourself. " The victim unsuspectingly raised the glass to his face , and while ho was gaz ing long and earnestly at the imago re flected therein , tlio highwayman seized him , bound him by tlio arms , and robbed him of every cent lie had. Ho was then released. Another man who came along about the same lime was "put through" in the same manner. By this time the feeling among the citi- eons of Florence and Sulphur Springs began to grow red-hot. Special Ollicer Van Orman , who occupies rooms in tlio bqat house , took down his trusty shot- gm and st-if ted out to alarm the people , o soon succeeded in securing a posse of about twenty-live farmers , all of them armed with rillcs , shot-guns , revolvers , etc. This band swooped down upon the tramps and captured the main body of them without any resistance. Then skir mishers were sent out in every direc tion to hunt in tlio grass and thick undergrowth in that locality for the missing ones who were known to bo hid ing. After a halMiour's hard work , the total "round-up" proved to be twenty- live tramps , all of them strong , hard-vis- nged men and desperate characters in every sense of the word. Sonic of them tried to escape , but they were promptly Jirjmlcd off. Ono follow started to draw his revolver , but ho soon fdlt the cold muzzle of a shot gun pressed against his temple , with the injunction lo "drop that ar' hand. " The posse , with Ofllcqr Van- Orman , started to march the prisoners up to jail , and until the central part of town was reached , everything went well. Then the crowds began to press in around the captors and the captured , affording the latter an opportunity to slink away , mingle in-the mob , and make their es cape. By the time the central station was reached tlio batch of prisoners had dwin- Ueddewn to the four already men tioned. After trial the next morning they were sentenced to fifteen days in the county Jail on bread and water. The citizens of Florence and vicinity of Sulphur Springs ' hold a mass meeting Sat- irdry night , and 'formed an "Anti-Tramp League. " They say that they are deter mined to protect their homos and prop erty against the niilians even if blood shed is required. The feeling against the tramps was so bitter last night that it was only with the greatest dilHculty that Ollfcer Van Orman kapt the posse from shooting them down like dogs. SIGNS. The Knl hts of Ijiibop Atlvcrliso n With Chalk. 11 EOOx 2SI5 Under ordinary circumstances people observing tlio ivbovo cabalistic sign would imnclno tlmt some boys linil been playing hop-skotcli. As n matter of fact , however - over , while its signiJicunco is not known to the outsiders , it possesses a deep mean ing to the Knights of Labor. While their counts inuvo generally announced in some such nuinner , which isiiot supposed to attract attention , it is not their custom to use the signals as extensively as upon thonrcsuntoccnsion , Friday night about 0o'clock a number of knights blurted out with chalk in hand to decorate the town. I j yury prominent corner in the business portion the city was vlbited and this morning showed the results ot thuir liai.d ; Iwork. Before the rain began to fall Saturday morning u n person could not walk half n 'block without stepping upon the chalk murks. The imprint wan upon the sklo walks , the freight cars at the depot , and' upon tlio platform and walls of the station. It docs not , however , secret as the af fair is supposed tc be , take a careful ob- M\'ver long to concluite that the hiero glyphics mean that assembly 2815 was to niect tit 8 o'clock on the eleventh day of the fourth month or last mirlit. The mooting was undoubtedly expected to bo one of the most important aver hold in 'Uniuliu ' , Tlio men who belong to the as sembly are , to a large extent , employes of the railroad , and unless business of the utmost importance was expected to arise , would not have resorted to such ex treme methods of attracting members to the meeting. Just wiiat the object of the nicotmu was , at present is not knownex cept to the leaders , The knights themselves say very little about it Mild are reluctant to confess tlmt they are members of tlio 'oVgnnixation. The theory that u strike on the Union Pncilio is imminent gains ewlrtiieo on account of the fact that dele gates from the knights from all import ant towns on the line of road were in tocrot hcssion for n long time several days jjfo , The mon however , have no particu- Jargriavanco against tlio company and those employed in Omaha will not go llito a strike unless forced lo do so oy J cir brethren further west. Another " ' theory is that action will bo > regard to the disturbance in Kast , Lotus 1-riday. Some of tlio knights -mlmun the acts of viulcuce then accoin- pllscd ) | very bitterly mid foci that they mvo _ done great harm to their order. It .limy bo tlmt tha meeting will bo general , throughout the country and that it is. for ' purpose ol placing thu knights us a on record uguiusl all violent deeds' . ODDS AND KNDS. Stray lienvos Gathered from the Ko porter's Note Hook. Truth la sometimes stranger than fiction , as in the following in stance. It relates to im "incident" in the career of Hdmund G. Koss , gover nor of New Mexico. Early In the pres ent year , Mr. Hess , who Is a good printer , obtained a steady position on the Albuquerque , N. M. , Democrat , an evening democratic paper. [ But to dl- verge , Mr. Ross had been n. 'senator from Kansas three years before , and con sequently know several people in high places. ] lie was n good democrat , and worked hard for the election of Mr. Cleveland , although working at the case in the Democrat ofllco right along. On the ( irst of March ho drew hU money from tlio ofllco and nnit. "What did ho do It for ? " was n question thatagitatcd the minds of quitu a circle of his friends. He is a small , unostentatious man , and but few know his object In stop ping work so suddenly. His friends commenced on him in such a manner us , "Say , Ross , wl nt do you want , consul general to China , or governor of the territory > " Ho stood this a week or so without say ing iv word , but at last , getting sick of that sort of thing , made the announce ment that ho was going to try to get the governorship of Now Mexico. Heing well-known among the newspapers , ho received a largo press , report. 1'rolty soon hu departed for Washington. His friends received letters from him occas ionally , but no good news Finally about two months after he had left Albu querque , the following telegram was re ceived : "Washington , May , . Edmund G. Hess was to-day appointed by the president governor of Now Mexico. VILAS. " Was it true ? His friends tele- ( implied lo him , and the telegram was continued , and Mr. Hess , the common praised ! that would have inado that gentleman prouder than he is had ho heard it. On Mr. Ross's arrival homo he was accorded such n rousing reception as had never been witnessed bcioro in that territory. And from all accounts he is perfectly competent. lint just think : of His emVnga ! From setting typo at 83 cents per 1,000 "cms , " to the governorship of Now Mexico. One of the greatest points in this story is that it is true , every word of it. "This talk about hearing the whistling of a bullet is all nonsense" said an old army oilicor the other day. "You very often hear mon say after they have been shot at that the ball canio so close to them that they could hoarit hum through the air.DAs a matter of fact I don't ' believe - lievo it is possible to hear a bullet no mat ter how close it conies tO' man's ear. It might bo possible lo feel the wind which its passage creates , but I don't believe there is any sound. See that little mark , " and the ollicer placed his finger on the lobe of his left ear. "That was singed by a bullet and I didn't hear ariillo or know anything about it till I felt the sting. I guess I've had as many narrow escapes as most men but I never heard the whistle of a bullet. " "There's another thingl don't lake nny stock in" said a bystander , "and that is this business about a man jumping up in the air when he is shot. It's a statement you often see in books and newspapers but at the same lime I don't believe it. I saw seven negroes shot down one after tlio other one c'ection ' day and they all fell. Tiw.y didn't jump up in tlio air and take a dive forward , they just wilted right down to the ground. 'When a man's shot dead his muscles are paralyzed , und from a , common sense standpoint it is impossible for him to jump. That may not bo the theory of doctors but it seems to me to bo common sense. " Fashion is very well , in its way , and ladies arc perfectly right in following its requirements , as a general thing. 13ut in some cases , as in the following , the femi nine mind ought to bo strong enough to disregard its dictates. A young lady , handsomely and fashionably dressed , applied one night this week to Mrs. i'ltgsloy , the matron of the Woman's Christian Aiil association which has rooms on Sixteenth and Farnam streets , for a night's lodge. The sight of a pretty , cultured and stylishly dressed young lady begging lor u room to sleep in , was somewhat novel to Mrs. P. , and Fho questioned the young girl. The latter told her story without any hesi tation. She said that she came from Chicago with her brother , who is a travelinir man , intend ing to go to Denver. She were a reti cule , containing quito a sum of money , jauntily strapped over her shoulder. Just before they got into Omaha the young man remarked that she had bettor take the reticule off , as Omaha ladies were not in the habit of wearing them on the street. As the young lady lid not care to apncar "odd , " she readily complied with nor brother's sug gestion. The reticule was laid aside. The next thing the young lady know , it was missing , and a search , high and low. failed to reveal its whereabouts. To add to her misery , in the crowds at the Union Pacific depot she became separated from her brother. Reduced to these straits she was compelled to apply lo Mrs. Pugsloy for assislanco. lestorduy morning she started out to hunt for her brother , say ing that if she did not Und him she would return. As she did not conic back it is fair to presume that brother and sister wcro united. At any rate if. is qnito probable that the nnxt time the young lady will not bo quite so ready to pros trate hcr.sclf before the idol ot fashion. IIK ATI'S ' TilK"POTATOES. . The Grounds on Which IMnry Collou Hecks n Divorce. Mary K. Collen filed a petition in the district court Saturday divorce for a from her husband , William Collen. She was married to him July 17 , 1881 , and claims that since the wedding ho has abused and insulted her in every possible manner. When not shaking her. kicking her , or slapping her m the lace , ho was , the petition alleges , calling her vile names n the presence of her two children. She naturally resented this treatment , which she said was unbearable , but she continued to live with him because she was unwilling to appeal to the courts for protection , it is slated that one of his most disagree- ublojmbits , for which he made no apol ogy , was to obtain her wages in advance and spend the money on faro , When he won It is said that ho enjoyed the money in riotous living , Whether hu won or lost , however , it made no dill'erenco to his wife , who states that ho was unwilling to supply her witli the bare necessities of life. She was n meek , patient \vonmn , anil made no nuinmir or complaint until ho at last overstepped all bounds , and treated her in a manner past all ondur- nco. Ono evening not long ago she came from her work penniless and hun gry , There was nothing in the house to eat. Her husband came from homo a few minutes later , with : i parcel in his hands. The package contained potatoes , llvocc-nts worthai'conlinirto the petition. The husband carefully placed the potn- totor-s on the kitchen table , and gloated on their line appearance. Ho picked them up one by one howas hungry himsulf-and washed thorn thoroughly. Thru lur put tlieni in thu store ana sat down to enjoy his nine. His wife and children wcro watuuiug the opcru- lion with eager eyes nnd looked forwant with watering mouths at the expected feast. The hus band waited until the potatoes hhd reached the proper state and then remov ing his pipe from his month took them from the stove. The point to which his wife lays Hie most stress , and upon which she bases her grounds for divorce is that her husband ale all Iho potatoes himself and did not even permit her tosmell of the skins.

Lute Saturday , the trainmen and Union Pacific officials reached n satisfac tory settlement of the arbitration. The result is a compromise. The men will bo paid for last month's work according to the old wage system. In the future they will be paid by Ihe trip system. The company allows a less number of miles to constitute a trip than was oriirinally contemplated , thus making an important concession to ibc trainmen. So tnat both sides are satisfied and from this source there will be no strike. Public sale of Short Horn cattle at Lin coln , Nob. , April 1-1 , 1880. Fifteen cows and heifers and twenty bulls.
