. Greatly to the surprise anil gratllica-
( ion of tliu property owners anil business
men of this city , Major Burr , at the
meeting of the council Monday evening ,
appointed Messrs. Dillingsly , Brock ,
Dean nnil I1 mains a committee on pav
ing , inaklug a personal request ill tliu
samu llniu that they begin the necessary
preparatory work at once. City Attor
ney field had previously informed the
council that under the present charter ,
abutting property can bo legally charged
with tlio cost of paving tlio streets and
alleys , but not thu intersections , and that
in his opinion thu city had no power to
levy a tax on the general public for that
purpose. In order to l > u well fortified in
the matter Chairman Dillingsly yester
day addressed the following letter to
Messrs. llarwood , Ames As Kelly , Mason
As Whedon , Mnrqiictte , Ueweeso A Hall ,
and other leading law linns :
Uontlemcn Mayor Burr has appointed a
committee on paving , whom lie wishes. In
compliance with tlicucm.imls nf nearly all of.
our cltl/cns , to take some btups lu conformity
with law , toilevlso some plan to pa\o our
stteots and alleys In the business poitlon of
tlio city. The city attorney , Mr. Kleltl , has
advised thu council tliat abutting propeity
can be charged with the expense ot paving
the ailjoinlni : street anil alley , but In his
opinion we had no power miller tliu charter
to levy a tat on the gcneial public fur p.ivlng
the squares at the Intcrst-cliou ot streets.
Wuaienot aiitlmiiycd to Incur any ex
pense for log.il opinions on this nutter , but
believing your Intelest In this matter as nub-
llc spirited elti/ens , would iiiompt you , 1C
solicited , to iloimtu some light on the sub
ject. Wo take this occasion to ask your
opinion as to tlio power.of ) tliu mayor ami
council In having tliu sheets and alleys
paved , curbed anil guttered.

Tf , in the opinion of the lawyers named ,
the city can proceed with the work of
paving without waiting to have the char
ter tinkered by the legislature , it is very
probable that some energetic steps in
that direction will lie taken this summer.
The experience of the past winter and
spring has demonstrated , even to the ob
structionists , the necessity of putting the
streets , especially tiioso in the heart ot the
city , in shape to accommodate the con
stantly increasing trallic. About the only
question that can bo raised now is as to
how and where the work shall bo done.
As was pointed out in the Bii : ; about a
week ago , there is a district of some
tbirty-tlireo blocks in the business region
that needs immediate attention. With
those thirty-three blockb paved great re
lief would como to now badly domoral-
ix.ud commercial circles , and a halt could
bo called , if necessary , to improvements
of the same nature for at least ten years.
Instead of desiring to slop the work ,
however , it is much more likely
that tlio paving of the dis
trict named would incite tbo
property owners la adjoining streets to
carry out u similar good work. In the
opinion of the BKE man that part of the
city which should bo unvcd as soon as
possible consists of nine blocks on O
street between Sixth nnd Fifteenth ; live
on P between Seventh and Eleventh ; and
three on N between Ninth and Twelfth.
Of the cross streets three blocks on Ninth
and Tenth , from Q to N need paving ;
four on Eleventh from Q to M ! , and two on
Twelfth from P to N. To pave these
streets with asphalt , will cost , at a rough
estimate , $250,000 ; with granite block
$320,000 ; cedar blocks $125,000. It is
very doubtful whether the same amount
of money can bo expended as profitably
in any ether work. The business men of
Omaha , where thu work of paving was
inaugurated about four years ago , and
where public improvements have been
carried on over since at the rate of $800,000
a year , are a unit in declaring that the
real prosperity of the plaoo dates from
the day the work was undertaken. A
great part of the money is paid to
laboring men wlio put it in circu
lation ut once , anil every branch of > trade
is bonollttod. Capitalists from the cast
looking forinvostmonts are not afraid to
put out their money'whore there nro such
sure Indications that the people arc pro
gressive and prosperous. Aside from this ,
it is a wqll-known fact that properly
abutting on a paved and sewered street
enhances in value , not to the costs of the
Improvements alone , but many times
more. There nro numerous cases in
Omuha where tha investment of $200 , in
ten annual payments , for paving m front
of ono lot , has caused would-be pur
chasers to ralso their bids from $1,000 to
$1,500.
With tlio fact that paving , at least of
the district mimed , is assured , the next
points raised will bo as to the material ,
nmnnor of letting the work nnd system
of payment. On each of these the Omaha
plan seems worthy of imitation , nnd it
would bo well for the gentlemen who
represent the council to make n visit of
inspection there , nml consult witli thu
otliclals who have the matter of pub
lic works iu charge. As tlio BKI : man
remembers it when the paving of a cer
tain stioet is decided on , the property
owners nro allowed to designate , by pe
tition to the council , the material they
want used , the majority of course ruling.
This done , proposals tor doing the work
nro advertised for , and the contract lot
to thu lowest bidder. A board of public
works consisting of three mon appointed
bv the mayor and continued by the coun
cil have direct charge nnd supervision of
nil public improvements , subject to en
dorsement by the council. The money
for paying the contractors is raised by
floating district bonds which tire n lien
only on the property in the territory
paved. These bonds bear D per cent in
terest , and the last series were taken ut
DJ per cent premium. To meet them the
property owners way into the city treas
ury ovury year one-tenth of tlio amount
assessed against them , the whole being
paid up ut the end of the tenth year.
Discussion of the subject will doubtless
bring out some valuable sugge.stions , and
as the matter is of the most vital import
ance to Lincoln people , the UIE : man is
ready to liuar nil sides nnd present tlio
points ns made. >

An Imperial Island.
London Life : The Crown Prince
Rudolph of Austria , in addition to many
other desirable pomps and vanities , has
an island of his own Lacroma , in the
Adriatic , opposite Ragusa ; and there in
thu midst of lovely scenery , siirroundeti
by a transparent sen , ho is convalescing
utter n recent indisposition. The isle ,
three days' steam from Trieste , is as
beautiful ns Monaco , nnd quite out of the
world ; for while the owner is in residence
no ono Is allowed to laud without n
special permit. ' Lacroma formerly belonged
longed to that most unfortunate of mon-
arcns , Maximilian of Mexico , who was
much attached to it , and wrote several
little poems in praise of its charms
After his terrible end the island was
possessed by n succession of ordinary
eoplo , by ono of whom it wns sold to
10 Archduke Rudolph in 1678. The
future emperor of Austria lives nt
Lacromn in the greatest simplicity.
When Maximilian bought tlio isle the
only available residence on it was an old
monnstory which had been going to ruin
for half a century , and in this building
the crown prince nnd princes live their
simple lives. There urn but three good
rooms in the housu the drawing-room ,
the nnciont refectory , used as n salon do

Uallaway , Ksq.iunurul ( MuiairorOinihi : : : ,
Nob.My Dear Sir : Up to this time I
have nud no occasion for writing to you
of the relations of this company with
Us employes and the policy it should pur
sue toward them. The information you
now send respecting the situation in the
Denver shops leads mo to feel some misap
prehension exists on the subject , and , if
so , I am anxious to remove it , When I
was in Omaha in May last , shpttly after
the April strike , I found an impression
very generally prevailing that tlio reduc
tion of wages then ordered Inul origin
ated in the cast. I was not at the time
president of the company. It was fur
ther intimated to mo that the order for
this reduction had been made against the
remonstrances of the local management ,
and was subsequently rescinded in con
sequence of the urgent representations
of that management. 1 wish to say that
this is an error. Tlio reduction in ques
tion was lirst proposed by Mr. Ulark.lhen
general manager , when in New York ,
during the month of March last. It was
discussed as a suggestion of iiis , and cer
tain directors in Boston raised the
question whether it was an expedient
measure. Mr. Clark urged it strongly ,
stating that its only result would bo to
bring the wages paid by the Union Pa
cific to a level with those paid
by other companies , and ho fur
ther expressed the utmost conlidcnco
that the employes themselves would rec
ognize the justice of the reduction , lie
anticipated no difficulty on account of it.
He was accordingly allowed to order tlio
reduction , which no did upon his own re
sponsibility. Subsequently , when dilli-
enlty was encountered , Fie telegraphed
to the e.u.t to know whatcour p he should
puraiie. He was advised that ho must
take sueli course as he deemed expedient ;
tlio measure originated with him , and it
was for him to meet the ditllculty which
arose from it. I refer to these facts
simply to have the position of the direc
tion in April last fully tnvlorspod by you.
Meanwhile , in view of questions which
have since arisen , I deem it best to indicate
cato to you the policy which the present
administration desires you to pursue to
ward tlio company's employes. IJcing
now in your position , the subject is one
in regard to all the aspects of which you
you natuarally cannot bo informed. In
some respects the situation is peculiar.
As a whole , the employees of the Union
I'acilic are men of a superior class. Com-
tug mainly from the cast , many of them
have been in the servieo of the company
for considerable nerioiLs of time. Owing
to the character of the country through
which the lines of tlio Union Pacific run ,
the position of its employes is unlike any
which exists in tlio east. They are in many
cases , wholly dependent on the company
for employment ; they have nowhere else
to turn. Owning , as many of thorn do ,
and as the company has wisely encour
aged them to do , homes of their own m
what is often a wilderness , if they are
discharged they are oblidged to abandon
their hoinca in order to seek employment
elsewhere. Naturally , therefore , they
are sensitive to any move which looks
either toward a reduction of wages or of
working force. It is the policy of the
company to fully nnd fairly recognize
this peculiarity of the situation , and in
dealing with the employes you will bear
this in mind. From personal examina
tion , I am satisfied that the wages of the
Union Pacific railway company now pays
are higher than those paid by other com-
iHinioB operating in the same region.
That reduction of wages and working
force are at this time being made through
out the country , is matter of common
notoriety. I am further satisfied that a
reduction of tlio working force of the com
pany might be oJleclcd without detriment
to its service. Nevertheless , recognizing
the peculiar situation of our employes ,
and tlio understanding reaohed with thorn
last spring , you ( ire authorized to make ,
in such a way as you see lit , afrank state
ment of the policy which the company
proposes to pursue. In tlio first place no
further reduction , either in wages erin
in working force , in the mechanical de
partment , is now contemplated. Tlio
company is prepared to say that it will
carry UIOSG now on its rolls through the
doming winter at least ; and , if it should
prove at any timu that there was not suf
ficient work to keep the shops busy , any
reduction shall bo made in hours , and not
in the number of workmen. Further , it
is the ilosiro of the directors tiiat you per
sonally cultivate the most open , honest
and direct relations with tlio employes.
These employes are , of course , expected
to perform fair days' work for fair days'
wages. Tlio company cannot surrender
its right to dismiss men for cause. On
the other hand , where it is claimed thai
men have boon dismissed for insuflloiciil
cause , it will be expected that the super-
iiitmulcnts shall personally investigate
the cases nnd see that justice is done.
Should our employes , singly or in a body ,
feel that they have any matter of griev
ance against the company , it is equally
expected that they will moot you in a
frank and loyal buirit , stating their ap
prehensions or grievances and appealing
to you for fair dealing. Knowing the rec
ord that you have left in the Chicago &
Grand Trunk and the estimation in which
you worn universally hold by the employ-
os of that company , the directors
feel convinced that such persona
conferences with you would In a
very short time result m a similar feeling
towards jou among our employes
Above all , it is desirable that you shouU
lo e no opportunty of impressing upon
the minds of those in tlio company's ser
vice that the recent change of adminis
tration , both hero and at Omaliu , docs
not necessarily foreshadow any consider
able change in its /orco. Ou the contrary. '
wherever it is "possible , preference will
: > o given to those , who have boon longest
n the companyjs employ , it is not in
tended to introduce a largo element from
without Such h course would , under no
existing circumstaitces , bo deemed expe
dient. These j ifeThl views of a question
which is here considered of the first
Importance are submitted for jour infer
mation. 1'ou will give them such a de
gree of publicity , and in such a way , as
you sco lit. Meanwhile , it would bo desirable -
sirablo that they should bo brought , in so
far as possible to tliu knowledge of nil
tiioso whoso imMr ) > s"iiro upon the rolls. I

CitEvr.XNK , Vfyo. , July 10. 183 , " ) . Gen.
! ' . P. Alexander , government director :
My Dear Sir A question which may in
volve Important consequences lias arisen
between this company and its employes ,
In regard to which 1 wish to ask your
friendly intervention as a government
director , and consequently a wholly un
prejudiced parly. Tlio facts in theca o
nro briolly these : It is a rule of the com
pany in dealing with its employes , that ,
when the force in any department has to
bo reduced these men who have most re
cently come into the service of the com-
, slriil bo discharged , ether things
Eany equal , that is , the service of the
best men are to bo retained seniority re
ceiving preference between men equally
good. There is , also an organization
among tlio employes known as the
Knights of Labor. This organization is
represented by an executive committee ,
to which the members of It make their
complaints. Kecently a gang of bridge
men in tlio operating department of tlio
company were discharged ; the gang eon-
aisled ol a forcn.iin and eleven men. The
superintendent informs mo that this
gang was laid on" for good and Milllclont
reasons , there being a lack ot material
for them to work with ; and also that , as
ono gang has to bo laid oil' , this gang
was selected as being the least
bullleiont , nnd which could bo most
readily disbanded. The men composing
tins gang were members of the organiza
tion above referred to. They declined to
receive their discharge , and presented
their ea.se to the organization. Their
claim is that the rule of the company in
regard to the discharge of employes had
been disregarded , and that in reality
they had been discharged because they
weso members of the organization known
as tlio Knights of Labor , and that other
men not members of it had bed. previ
ously employed to ( ill their places. The
matter was brought before mo in tills
shane at a recent meeting which 1 had
with the executive committee of the
Knights of Labor , at Denver. I prom
ised to give it my personal attention , at
tiio same time informing the committee
that my finding in tlio matter must bo
final. It was also understood that my
necessary engagements at the cast , and
multiplicity of a flairs which require my
attention would prevent my investigating
the matter individually. Nevertheless , 1
nromised that it should receive faithful ,
free and unbiased attention , i should.
therefore , esteem } , t a very great favor if
you would go to Denver and examine
into tliis ease. , . I will see that the men
who wore discharged , the superintendent
of the bridge dc'pai ' tment who discharged
them , and all1 thb other officers con
cerned in tlio matter , appear before you.
1 wish you would conduct the investiga
tion in such ai manner as may seem to
yon lit , in order u > arrive at the exact
tacts , and state them to me.
The essential rjoint in tlio CHSO
is to ascertain whether these men
were dismissed by their immediate sup
erior fairly , without pretence and with
that reasonable regard which should
always bo paid to the interests of the
company. Ifj the grounds on which
they were dismissed were merct pretences ,
and their dismissal-was in reality because
they wore momborsiof the labor organ-
jzation in question , tlio act of the super
intendent of tlio bridge department can
not bo justified under tiic rules of the
road as they now exist and tlio under
standing between the company and its
employes In such case , tiioso men who
wore cllicicntand had been longest in the
employ of the company would have to
be reinstated in position. Ifou the other
hand , acting fairly within his reasonable
discretion , it shall appear to you that the
superintendent of the bridge department
discharged these men , cither because
there was no work for them to do , or
for inefficiency or inattention to duty ,
he must bo sustained in his action. In
view of the consequences which may
ensue , I shall ask you , bearing these
principles in mind , to report the facts
and your findings in writing. Mr. Smith
will furnish you with a stenographer. I
shall bo glau to receive a report from you
as early as it may suit your convenience ,
as it is desirable this matter should bo
definitely settled witli as little delay as
may bo. I remain very truly yours.

enables mo to communicate with yon at
length in regard to all tlio points raised
at the meeting between the committee of
the company's employes nnd myself at
Denver on the evening of July 14. 1 wish
in tiie first place to express the gratifica
tion I felt at finding the causes of com
plaint so few and trivial. Indeed it was
n matter of surprise to mo , that , in tiio
case of a corporation HKU the Union Pa
cific , having in its employ some 15,000
persons , a committee coming directly to
the president , and representing the
grievances of that whole body , should
yet have so little to say. It showed con
clusively that no ground for serious diffi
culty existed I would commend to you
and through you to tlio employes of
the company generally , n careful consid
eration of General Alexander's report. It
is utterly impossible that tlio working
force of the Union Pacific , or of any other
largo railroad company , should bo car
ried through the year without increase or
diminution This was admitted by the
committee in their , interview witli me ,
nnd they oxprossly'disclaimcd any desire
to suggest suchf/m impossible practice.
During the winter Uio company employs
perhaps 10,000 : Mnin. During certain
periods of the summer that force has to
bo increased to ' 10,000. The men thus
temporarily employed have to bo dis
charged. Tho'timto ' has now como
when tlio largo1' force last spring
engaged for , track and other
work must bo reduced. Tlio principle
qn which this reduction should bo made
lias already biin ( ; stated. As between
men otherwise equal , that is , employes
equally , honest , sober nnd capable , the
ono who lias been Ipugost in tlio service
of the company. tp bo retained , Hut
seniority in service is not to bo made a
cover for shortcomings of any descrip
tion , In reducing1 our working force ,
you will instruct nil subordinates to bear
carefully In mind tiio rule here laid
down , It is obviously impossible for
you. and much more for mo to examine
into every case of alleged injustice which
may be reported. Your subordinates are
responsible for results ; and. in order
that they may bo responsible ) , it is neces
sary that they should have a certain lib
erty in the selection of tiioso who work
under them , They are tlio best judges as
to which men are the most honest , most
reliable and most capable , From their
judgment in this respect save in most ex
ceptional cases , there necessarily can bo
no appeal. To this principle the commit'
too of employes in confcrnuco witli mo
at Denver gavo'a most ready assent. It
is obviously the only principle Upon which
the affairs of a company aslaipo as the
.Union Pacific- could bo faueecastully con-
'ducted. In making arrangements , there-
. ford , for uercisary reduction of force' , you
will specially caution alt subordinates to
give profcronco to seniority in service ,
ether things being equal. This being
done , thosa subordinates must bo left to
select the best mon In their several de
partments and gangs.
I remain , very respectfully yours.

Cnpt. ( Jarraway of Halifax drew out of
ins well n live moccasin snake about a
foot and a half long. It was taken to
the house and foil witli insects , it soon
became very tame and is now a great pot
among the children , who play witli it as
they do witli their kitten and dolls.
Tiio largest rattlesnakes nro In Texas ,
on the lower Hio Grande , whore they
sometimes reach the length of twelve
feet. The smallest arc the horned rattle
snakes of Arizona and now Mexico ,
which seldom reach the length of two
feet. They have two little excrescences
over the eyes from which they receive
their names.
A Maine fisherman saj's lie saw a sea-
serpent the other day oil' Wolls. Ho
thinks it is the same one ho saw some
yean ago in the Caribbean sea , although
it appeared to have grown coiisldeiably.
Its Head was as largo as a barrel , and
was held high in the air. Its eyes weio
big as saucers , and its lingo open mouth
contained three rows of teeth.
A traveler in Mexico gives the follow
ing cheerful sketch of the country
through which ho passed : "Gigantic
rattlesnakes , deadly asps , and a hundred
other dangerous species glide away at
our approach ; reptiles prey upon each
other in the miasmatic lagoons , whore
fatal ualenturas lurk under evoiy leaf ;
enormous li/.nrds bask in the hot sun
shine , tarantulas , scorpions , centipedes
and xins-xins abound in tlio burning
sands. "
A North Carolina man writes as fol
lows to the Atlanta Constitution : "Tho
joint snake is often three feet long , of
dark-brown color , with stripes of green
and white , shading oft" to white under
neath. The snake does not br < ! ak on ao-
count of lieiiiu lilt with a stick. If you
will gently place a stick on or no.ir its
head , the moment it fools itself fast it
throws itself into coils and breaks into
nieces at joints and nowhere else. It
breaks square across. On ono piece there
are two cartilages or hones projecting an
eighth of an inch in Icangth and about
the same distance apart. On tlio other
pieeo that joined it there is a tendon of
the same kind that fits in between the
other two pieces. If you place these
two pieces together they remain together
and look as it they had never boon sopor-
ated. I have .seen do/.ens of them in tlio
space of twelve jears. 1 have repeatedly
loft the pieces where they broke , marked
tlio spot , and on returning after a few
hours could never lind one of the pieces
again. "
A Def ? That Could Count.
E. P. Coo , in "St. Nicholas' Dog
Stories , " St. Nicholas for May : Old
Fetch was a shepherd dog anil lived in
the highlands ot the Hudson. His master
kept nearly a do/en cows , and they
ranged at will anionglhe hills during the
day. When the sun was low in tlio west
his master would .say to his dog , "Bring
the cows Imine , " and it was because tlio
dog did this task so well that he was
called Fetch.
Ono sultry day he departed as usual
upon his evening task. From scattered ,
shady and grassy nooks , lie at last gath
ered all the cattle into the mountain road
loading to the distant barnyard.
A part of the road ran through a low ,
moist spot bordered by a thicket of blacK
alder , and into this ono of the cows
pushed her way and stood quietly. The
others passed on , followed some distance
in the rear by Fetch.
As tlio cows approached the barnyard
gate , he quickened his pace and hurried
torward. as if to Hay , "I'm here , attend
ing to business. But his complacency
was disturbed as the cows filed through
tlio gate. Ho whined a little , and growl
ed a little , attracting Ins master's atten
tion. Then ha went to the high fence
surrounding the yard , and standing on
his hnurfect peered between two of the
rails. After looking at the herd care
fully for a time , lie started ofl' down the
road again on a full run. His master
now observed that ono of the cows was
missing , and he sat down on a rock to
see what Fetch was going to do about it.
Bcforo long ho hoard tlio furious tinkling
of a bell , and soon Fetch appeared bring
ing in the perverse cow at a rapid pace ,
hastening ; her on by frequently leaping
up and catching her car m his tooth. The
gate was again thrown open , and the
cow , shaking her head from the pain of
tlio clo < r'8 rough reminders , was led
through it in a way that she did not soon
forgot. Fetch then lay down quietly to
cool off in time for supper.
A Strnnce Coincidence.
The truthfulness of the old saying that
misfortunes never como singly is sus
tained , says tins San Kranoiseo Chronicle ,
in the stranrro fatality following John
and Maurice" Nugent , brothers , who re
side in Oakland. Both mon are candy-
makers by trade , and Maurice had boon
employed in San Jose for the past six
mouths. On Wcdnesdav afternoon ho
determined to como to this city , and as
he was boarding tlio train in the San Jose
depot ho slipped and fell. Before lie
could recover himself his loft arm was
so badly crushed by the wheels of the
moving train that it was found necessary
to amputate it near tint shoulder.
His brother , John Nugent , was in San
Jose in search of employment at the time ,
but ho did not hear of tlio accident which
had befallen Maurice , Ho was without
money , and , being desirous of returning
to tliis city , ho started out to walk. Ho
reached Menlo Park early yesterday
morning as the freight train was passing ,
and lie boarded cars with the intention
of stealing a ride. lie rode as far as San
Mateo , and while endeavoring to climb
to the roof of ono of the cars he lost his
balance and fell to the track , the wheels
of the cars passing over his left arm ,
above t lie elbow. His cries for help at
tracted the attention of a hrakomnn ,
who had the train stopped , and the un
fortunate man was picked up nnd
brought to tins city. He was afterward
removed to the receiving hospital and
the injured member was amputated near
the shoulder joint. His loft log was also
badly laeorated and a number of stitches
worn taken in the flesh to draw it to
gether.
