As one of the atlor incidents of the late
cyclone , it is stated that when the freight
train of eighteen cars was blown oil' the

the past.

than having the mad dog get after him.

THE CRUMBLING CURBING ,

A Variety of Spicy nml Newsy Items

ClmtH on Curbing.
The attention of tlio public lias been
drawn to the manner in which parts of
ho stone curbing have so quickly crittu-
jled away. There seems to bo n great
diversity of opinion as to the causes.
Some claim that it is one kind of stone
hat .Ims crumbles away , and others that
t is an entirely different kind. Tim fact
seems to be that the fault is not con lined
o any particular stone , but that it is ap
parent in stone from almost every quarry
represented here. J. C. Reagan , the well
\nown contractor , wns hero yesterday ,
uid the ! ! IK : man asked him what ho
thought about it.
"The trouble is not confined to any par-
eular quarry , but more or less to all of
them. The fact is that stone used for
curbing is subjected to the most severe
Icsts of stone used anywhere. Yon sco
llie stone is set on edge , anil exposed to
: ho weather from all sides. Moisture
settles on top and beneath it , it is frozen
mil thawed , and if a stone will give way
mywhere it is in curbing. Nearly all thu
stone which is used hero for curbing is
from western quarries , that is , quarries
from around this part of the country. In
nearly all these quarries there are good
nnd bad stones. There arc two which
Jiavo crumbled badly , and they nro almost
; oed for nothing. Those Moncs each side
> f them are pretty good. One of them
will last for ages. Tlio other one has a
bad back , but the front is good for
years. Now the fact is that
ho.sc stones arc all from the
same quarry. It doesn't do to say that
stone from any spceial quarry is ( he only
iind that is poor , or that from : i certain
quarry all the .stono is good. "
"What is tlio trouble , then , and how is
t to be avoided ? "
"Tho trouble is mainly this : All this
stone is stratified of course. Now in
many of these quarries there are streaks
or strata of soft stone , like soapstone
sort of rotten , elavish , and all that. Now
when a curbstone has more or loss of
these softer strata , they crumble away
when exposed to the weather. The softer
spots do not stand the moisture , the free/-
ng and the thawing , and there is where
; lu. < mischief conies in. Perhaps right
from the same quarry you will get stone
that are solid clear through , and they
will stand forever almost. These softer
strata and streaks arc to be found in
nearly all the quarries in this part of the
conntrv. Now in some places , say around
Cleveland , where there are whole blnll's
of solid stone , there arc big quantities of
stone. Much farther west ot hero
: hero are also some sucli quarrie s. "
"But cannot an inspector notice these
poor stones and throw them out , instead
if letting thc'in bo put in ? "
"Yes , an old stone man could tell , if he
watched closely , but in many cities they
iiut on some man for political purposes ,
ind a broken-down politician can hardly
ell the bad stones. One way of telling
liem is by tlio color. These soft streaks
lave a bluish tinge generally , a , diflcrcnt
shade from the rest of the stone. " > .
"It would cost a good deal more to get
stone from the cast than from the far
west , wouldn't it ? "
"Not so much more as many suppose.
It might cost ten cents a running foot , or
such : i matter , more than what this stone
Iocs. The additional cost of putting in
jood material would not amount to
nncli. As I said just now , the curbing is
mt to a severe test , and it ought to be tlio
very best kind of stone to stand it. "

Mrs. Frank's Examination.
The examination of Mrs. llubor. alias
Frank , was continued yesterday with
closed doors , as on the previous day.
The defendant is said to be very averse
to having the newspapers get hold of the
real evidence in the case , and hence not
oven the reporters are allowed to hear
what is being testified. This docs not
keep tlio news from cr.eeping out , however -
over , and as usual the papers get all that
they want of the filthy affair. Yesterday
Oflicor James was on tlio stand , nnd
testified to the concession made to him
by the Hnbor woman , before she know
his ollicial position. According to his
testimony she stated that she came here
and stopped at Mrs. Mctcalf's on Uroad-
way , her mission to this city being to get
some girls for her house Among those
of whom she made inquiries was a fellow
named Joe , who worked at some hotel
here , nnd from him she learned of the
Mercer girl. She told Joe that she
wanted to get some girls to learn the
dressmaking business , and afterwards
she diove in u hack to the Mercer homo.
She there met the girl in tin : presence of
her father and married sister , and repre
sented to the family that she wanted to
get the girl to learn dressmaking. In
tins talk with Mr. James the woman
claimed that she had ileceivcd the girl's
folks as to the real character of her busi
ness , but that the girl understood what
was wanted of her.
In the afternoon the defense began.
The attempt was made to show that the
girl had been an inmate of u house in
Omaha before , and that she was the ono
who recently wrote a letter to a young
man in this city , threatening to commit
suicide if ho did not rescue her from u
lifo of shame. Mrs. St. Claire , on Twelfth
street , was said to bo the keeper of the
house whore the letter was written , the
girl being known theru as Lulu Brown.
The prosecution rebut this story by
evidence Unit Lulu Brown and Lulu
Mercer wore two dill'erent persons , and
that the former is a cousin of the Mercer
girl , uiHl is a prostitute in Oinnlui.
Joseph Lewis , a hack driver , testified
to having taken the girl to the depot.
Mrs. Rebecca Lewis , whokcuns u second
hand store in Umafia , testified against
the character of the girl. K , W , Warner ,
a hack driver in Omaha , testified that he
had taken the girl in his carriage to as
signation houses in Omaha , ami to hotels
in company with men. The examination
will bo resumed this morning.

Harry Blrkinbino received a telegram
Wednesday night announcing tlio death
of his father , Mr. Ihiiiry P. M. Blrkinbino ,
nt his homo in Philadelphia , for which
place the son left yesterday. Mr. IHrkin-
bine was one of the oldest and best known
engineers in the country. Ho has
been frequently in this city within the past
few years , looking after tlio construction
nnd operation of the water works , he
bolng chief engineer of the company , and
his sou being engineer in charge. Mr.
Birkinbiuc had tin experience of fifty-five
years , und some of his inventions and devises -
vises arc very valuable , notably the lire
rotection apparatus , which is in use
: iiul iu other cities. He had beeu ill
Tor some time past , but has not been
deemed in a critical condition within a
week.
Mrs. Harry Blrkinbino left about a
week ago for'the cast , with her children ,
nnd has been at the bedside of her father-
n-law since then. Mr. Birkinbino
formed many pleasnntncqualntances dur-
ng his visit to tills city , and the news of
Ids death will cause them to regret
: ho loss of a man so valuable in his pro
fession.
The Salnoii Cnsos.
The Dnbuqtio saloon cases , which were
appealed to the United States supreme
court , on the same question which has
been brought w > in the Council lUtifl's
cases , have been continued until the Oc
tober term of the court. This will with
out doubt cause the saloon cases hero
pending to remain in statuqtio until then ,
if not longer. Judge Conner has not
rendered any decision on the questions
pending before him , and it is understood
that he lias said in cll'ect that lie would
not do so until the Dtibuquo cases wore
decided in the supreme court. As those
cases go those cases will probably follow.
In view of this understanding , it beutna
that there will bo little new developed
concerning the saloons before fall. In
this view of the probabilities the s.iloons
still running will not have the old-time
excuse for refusing to pay a license for
what time they do run , ami the city will
probably press them into doing so , as
this ia about the only reason assigned of
late for the refusal to pay hcon.su. The
prospect is therefore that the city will
collect in the "pop" license.

Married On the Fly.
Yesterday afternoon Justice Ilendricks
was called on to perform a marriage
ceremony at his ollico. The couple wore
middle aged , and eacli had been married
before. They gave their names as Alfred
Trohortuml Josephine Searls. Ho was ti
grocery dealer in Chicago , while she was
a resident of Michigan. The happy man
had mot and wooed her , and they con
cluded to come west together and get
married. She wore a loose wrap , and on
roqueting the privileges of a dressing
room in which to prepare for the cere"-
inory tlio ollice was vacated for her hone-
lit , and in a lew minutes she had arrayed
herself in a new white dress which 'she
had brought with her. The ceremony
was soon performed , and the happy pair
started out declaring it to be their inten
tion to proceed on a wedding trip west
ward. The license book nt the county
clcrk'sofllcc showed the happy woman to
be from Logan.
A Chance for L.ihorcrs ,
C. Shenlield , who formerly lived here ,
and who is well known as a railway eon-
tractor and lately located in Albnrqiirquc ,
whore he hits large property and bank
ing interests , has again gone into railway
construction. He is one of tlio best rail
way contractors in the country , as many
of the citizens hero can bear witness. Ho
writes from Kingman , Kansas , to his old
friend Justice N. Scliurz , that lie has
taken a large contract on the Wichita &
NVesturn railway and is in condition to
give immediate employment to a number
of teamsters and laborers. Mr. Shell-
field was one of tlio constructors of the
Rock Island line into this city , and had n
large contract afterwards on the North
ern Pacific Some of his old men will
doubtless gladly improve this oppor
tunity to enter his employ again , and any
desiring further information can obtain
it of Justice Seliurz.

Itlfa on thu GriilHor Alabama.
From a series of brief and pithy papers
in the April "Century" on tlio Alabama
and Kcnrsnjio we quote as follows from
the artielo by P. I ) . Haywood , who was si
seaman on the Alabama :
"After wo had swept the ocean of
prl/.e.s wo had no excitement , nml wo cast
about in every way to amuse ourselves.
The rufllanly portion of the crew found
their pleasure in hu/.ing and ill-trouting
their duller and less resolute shipmates
and there were some fearful examples of
this kind of work. We had sparring
matches and single-stick playing , in both
of which I excelled. Spinning yarns and
and singing songs wore resources that
never failed. The starboard watch made
every man sing in turn under penalty of
a pannikin ot salt water , and our poets
were kept busy in composing new ditties ,
"One man had u splendid tenor voice ;
ho was well educated and had been , ho
said , an officer in the Royal Navy , and
was , like all disrated gentlemen that 1
have ever mot , a 'vicious and irreolnim-
blackguard. ' How strange to hear him
sin" "Tho Lament of the Irish Emigrant , '
and 'My Mary in Heaven' with taste ami
feeling , and the next moment disgust
even his rude associates by a burst of
obscene blasphemy. Ono sailor , n wonder
ful story-toller , who generally prefaced
his yarns .with 'When I sailed in the
Tnprobanc , East Ingyman , ' was known
as 'Top-robbiii.1
' 'His imagination was pro lifio of horrors
rors , and his grim and sepulchral visage
aided in producing an eflect on Ids hear
ers. His talcs were of phantom ships ,
that sailed in the teeth of wind and cur
rent , ami of ghn > tly women that cnmo
aboard in the height of storms , etc. , and
so reahstio und impressive was his delivery -
livery that some of the worst rullians in
the watch sought their hammocks in fear
and trembling : , "

None of tlmm know whjrtho cigar-maker
snapped his lingers , ami tlioy say now it
was tyrannical of him to do so , but they
quit work nil the same. The local assem
bly has since wailed on tlio proprietor ,
Mr. Strange , to say it was all a mlstnkn ,
and ask him to take the strikers back ,
but on ascertaining that the cigar-maker
had not been expelled or oven censured
for snapping his lingers , lie refused to dose
so , and will not reopen tlio mill as long
as his business is at the mercy of wander
ing cigar-maker : ! , There is a comio side
to nearly everything , and the comic side
of this is that a bodv of mon who can lie
made to abandon their means of liveli
hood on receiving a sign from an un
known man complain bitterly of the
"tyranny of capital. " In this city the
drivers and conductors of the Fourth
avenue railroad , after having settled all
their dilYuronccs with their own employ
ers , struck again , without knowing why ,
on having two lingers held up to them by
a man \\Tio walked along the track.
