ONE DOLLAR and FIFTY CENTS "WILL ZBTZrX IHIIREIIE ZDOLL-A-K , Clothi IH3F PICKED UP ABOUT THE CITY. The News Grist Gathered From the Gate City. IMPORTANT RAILROAD MEETINGS The Cnblo r lnc Sirs. Frank Ar- rented A. Deserted "Wife A Sncnk Thief Caught Minor Mention. Rallrcnul Ilnckct. Mr. Holdrcgc , of the 1J. & M. , says that the contract , for the building of tlio second end one Inindral miles of tlio Grand Island extension has boon awarded to John Fitzgerald. Tlio work commences at a point on the prairie near no place and extends to another pliico similarly situated one hniidrcd miles west. The UKB of last Tuesday referred to the track which the B. & Af. extended on Sunday last across tlio bottoms. The work was done quietly and the line had Jmrdly boon finished before a loaded freight train was rolled over it and braked , from the Missouri to the base of the bluffs behind Mela's ' brewery. All this was done in the name of furnishing tracks for HowolKs lumber yard , which is lo be plaecd on the bottoms ut this point. It was no sooner scon , however , 1 { ban tlio Union 1'acilic commenced to ex tend its track southward from Coots' fac tory. They made the extension until they reached the 15. & M. track referred to , which they met on tlio edge of the high dyke which runs through that part of the city. The 15. & M. , watchful ot the Union Pacific's movements , commenced another track on tlio south side of the Blough , which is really a continuance of that of the Union Pacific on the north of tlio slough , iioth companies alluct to have no interest other than that of what appears upon tlio surface , but > the fact is that tlio Union Pacific at tlio present writing seems to have been check mated. It is undoubtedly their intent to b'uild a curve from their track at a point near the bridge around in the rear of Mete's brewery to their now depot on Seventh and Jones htreots. To do this they would have to cross the ! B. & M. track or llowoll's land be fore mentioned. The foresight of the latter road , with their track running east and west and tlio other extending south &H a continuance of tlio latest spur of the Union Pacific , has to a certain extent prevented thu carrying out of this idea , ut least for the present. The Union Pacific has Q obtained n temporary injunction to restrain tlio 15. & Al. from further extension of theirtnicK in the territory named. NOTKS AND TKItSOXAI-S. Chief Clerk Warrick , of the freight de partment of the Union Pacific , has gone on u western trip. Frank Wells , ehicf clerk in the office of tlio auditor of agents' accounts , is to bo married next week to Miss LJrown , of this city. city.Mr. Mr. George Cuminings , the new land commissioner of the Union Paeilie , has fully settled down to his duties , and everything is running smoothly. No changes in the ollieu have yet boon made. A now engine (71(1) ( ( ) appeared on the track Saturday under the manage ment of KuginiHit Sim JManahan. She lias cylinders 18.\iJ ! ( inches the largest used on any angina on the road. She is capable of any kind of work , and when she gets broken in will bo one of which the 09111- pany will bo proud. She weighs litty tons , three tons moro than S3.1) ) , although ono would not expect Mieh weight from an engine \yhich looks only of about the average weight. General Tralllo Manager Kimball says that the ihucstigation in Council JJlnlVs was a hiirlily ridiculous atl'uir all around , and slated it as his opinion that that the C. . men had totally failed to prove their charges of discrimination against the Union Pacific. . ASncnk Thief Caught. \V. 11. Watson , a inUtdle aged man ft'ith a silk umbrella , gold-rimmed eye glasses and a general dandy appearance , was brought into the county juil about noon Saturday , llojwas looked up in ono of the. iron cages , and a charge of larceny was booked agnmst him , Watson , it seems , had slolon a pair of ihous from Kelly , Stigcr & Co. , and upon being pursued , tied through the crowds which were gathering to see the parade , and ran around the postollieo. Among his pursuers was John IX Croigh- ton. This gentleman succeeded in cap- luring him near the south end of the uostolnco building , Tliu thief raised his iimborella and dealt Mr. Croight'on a heavy blow on the jaw , whereupon that gentleman returned the compliment in a rory neat style with his fists. Watson Bellowed "enough , " and Mr. Creighton turned him ever to Officer Jabperson , who came up just at that timo. In his Ilight Watson dropped a lot of t ewolry , which was picked up by ono of ho bystanders and turned over to the po lice. Tlio prisoner , however , domes Knowing about the jewelry , The suppo sition is that it is stolen. Ilio Courts. A , J , Popploton and J. M. Tliurstoii , In behalf of the county of Dakota , made answer Saturday to the petition of the Society for Savings at Cleveland , de claring the nullity of its issue of $05,000 In January , 1870 ; that the same were issued without the o Ulcers in tmy manner being 'authorized to IbSiiu iha same , mid that the said bonds , wcru in excess of 10 ot the assessed valuation of the property of the county. The answer also uminicratcs a number of other irri-jrulari- tii'rf , on Ilia Htrength of which it hopes to escape liability for tlio samo. Joliii 1/uulenliolni , of Central City , filed a petition for $ ' . . ' 0,000 thtniages against AI. IiMuDoiml. . C.V. . Adams , J. K. Allison , J. W. Miller , L. C. Me- Hride and A. N. resincfor , mor- oliants of that place. These men it is allowed charge that Lindenholm , a grocer atthat place , wliilo advertising to sell thirteen pounds of sugar lor ono dollar really sold only eleven to twolvu pounds for "that money , thus injuring , so it is claimed , the good name of the plaintitr. She Wanted Them teA A certtiin Airs. Hanson , living on Twen ty-second and Iznrd streets , appeared in police court Saturday as complaining witness against AI. Hanson , who , though of the same name , is no relative of hers. She aecust'd him of wilfully assaulting her. The testimony developed quite an amusing state of affairs. It was shown that Airs. Hanson had gone past the house of the defendant late last evening , accompanied by a bull dog. This animal fell in with a largo canine owned by Han son and the two fell to lighting. Airs. Ilansen tried to urge her dog on and in sisted that the two should be allowed to light it out. Hanson , on tlio other hand , wanted to separate them , and when ho was prevented from doing so by Mrs. 11. , shoved her rather roughly aside. This sort of treatment did not hint the lady and accordingly she had Ilansen arrested. He was released by Judge Stcnborg , Deserted by Her Ilusli.iud. Airs. Alary Nelson , a tall , gaunt-look ing woman , came into Judge Stenberg's court Saturday nnd said that her husband , who had been living with her at 111 North Fourteenth street , had run away from homo last night with their little seven-year-old boy. He left a card on the dresser announc ing that he was going to look for work Aiid had left ' $20. The money , however , was not there , and Mrs. Nel son's supposition was that a Airs. Elliot , who lived in the same house had stolen the money. Judge Stcnborg refused to issue a wa'rrant for the arrest of Airs. Elliot , as he did not consider the evidence sufficient. Airs. Nelson went oll'in a "hull' , ' "abusing tlio judge roundly. Union Pad lie Kniploycs' Grievances. Alastor Workman Noashan of the Knights of Labor , is expected to arrive in tlio city to-day. He is on his "way from [ Cleveland , where ho I has been in - attendance upon a convention of the order , lie will remain hero possibly till Tuesday , when lie \vill go to Denver , where another mooting is to take place next week. While liero , the discrimination made against the older employes at the Union I'acilio freight depot in favor of young and less experienced favorites will be re ferred to him. Since the reference to the matter in tlio BKB , some time ago , Air. Oitsler , agent at this point , promised to give it his attention. Ka Made lliH Rscnpc. An expert pickpocket succeeded in robbing a gentleman near the corner of Fourteenth and Farnam of a pocketbook - book Qcontaining $30. Saturday. Jus as the thief was about to'dash away , the gentleman turned around , anindis gins his wallet , made a lump for the oH'endor. He caught him by the coat nnd held him , meanwhile Miouting for police assist ance. The pickpocket managed to break away , and running down Fourteenth to Ifarnoy ran lo Twelfth street when ho made his escape from his pursuers. The vjetim lost his pocketbook with SliO , but had several hundred dollars left which lu had htowed away in an inside pocket. The Street Commissioner Arrest ml. " A warrant fjjwas issued Saturday from Judge Stcrnborg'H court for the ar rest of Alike Alennoy , street commis sioner , on the charge of having assaulted Alike AloDonald. Complainant alleges that ho was talking lo Mcimoy in regard to the disposition ot some dirt which wa > being removed from his property at the corner qf Thirteenth anil Alason htreots , when AIeanoy _ became angered and struck him on the side of the head knocking him down. AleUontild showed fight and was clinching with Alcano.y , when friends of both parties interfered and -.topped the troulilo. _ Caused liy KlcotrK'ity. When Air. Goldsmith , proprietor of the AHslit parlors , came down to his estab lishment on tlio corner of Twelfth and Farnnm Saturday hefound Itlio store so lilted with smoke that it was impos sible to .seo one's hand six inches away. Inquiry showed thofact thatn spark from one of the electric lights had dropped down upon a table of clothing and sut it aliro. Ho sot to work and hi > eedily ex tinguished the smouldering bkizo with out the aid of the lire doiurtmont The loss will bo about $1,200. This is the third lire in a clothing iloro , caused by tin electric lump , within the last year. Ills Pocket Cut. Saturdayjhalf the curious part of town was in the vicinity of the Union 1'a- eilie depot to see the circus como in. Thcro was one individual who should have remained at homo. Ho lives at ( .ill- moro , His name is Henry Wrnn. About 11 o'clock ho was &ecn hunting around for Ids poeketbook ; , which contained $3" > . Uu was aUo anxious to meet the man who had cut his pocket before ho know wha liad boon dune , .Hut at lust ncecnuits Li curiosity hud uot been THE MASTKIl AMUSEMENT. Omalia Circus Goers Delighted with the Cole Shows. W. W. Cole has.tiic . largest mam circus tent that was over spread in Omaha. An idea of the immense si/o ot the tent may bo obtained from the fact that within is a full ono eighth mile race course , and the seating capacity is still outside of this. The capacity of this mammoth spread of canvas was taxed to its utmost to accommodate tlio thousands who wit nessed the Cole shows in tills city on Sat urday afternoon and evening. Tlio tent , it is well to remark right here , is the smallest feature of the Cole show , which by the unanimous verdict of the thou sands of pleased people who attended it in this oity , is the largest and best that has visited Omaha for an age. Tlio show is complete in every part. The menagerie and museum , while not large , is complete in its aggregation of novel and attractive features. Thcro was a refreshing absence of the cages of moiiKoys , parrots anil warty hogs , that go to fill ti | ) the street parade ol the much advertised "greatest shows on earth. " The mcnaireiio contains the newest features of the animal kingdom. The circus is the best that can bo given by the ninety-six artists who take part in tlio performances in the throe ring' . The barebacked riding , rope walking , trick horses , trained ctoirs , ground and lofty tumblinir , juggler work and other staple attractions ot every well regulated circus were never better presented than by the Cole's people. In addition tlierp are a number of new features , including the Silbons in their trapeze work , statuary grouping and feats of strength , the jockey do and the dog that turns .som ersaults. The exhibition of marksman ship eiven by Dr. Carver is alone worth the price of admission to the shows. To circus goers and amusement loving JIPO- pie everywhere the Cole show is cordially commended. Unary Acaln. On -Thursday Charles E. Stratton rcplevicd a team , wagon and harness from W. L. Levan. It was done in be half of a principal , John Thomas. It seems Stratton loans money at a high rate of interest for other people. In this instance W.j. \ . Lcvan borrowed $350 of Stratton on July 28 , last , and secured the payment of the note by a chattel mortgage upon his two teams and outfits. Ono outlit has been taken by Stratton nnd sold. Levan has already paid from ifino.to $500 on the mortgage , and yet Stratton demands SJ174 anil interest. This Lcvan refused to pay. Hence the action of replevin by btratton. Levan claims to have been injured by these pro ceedings. Another writ of replevin wat. issued to take the properly from Strat ton , but the latter , it is alleged , has spir ited the team away and secreted it , and refuses to state where it is. This is done with a view of forcing Lovan to accede to his terms. This case is set for hearing to-day before Jud < rc Itarka. Uiirbank represents Lovnn , Stratton appearing for himself. _ The Cable : Hallway. President S. K. Johnson , who has just returned from a trip to Chicago , St. Louis , Cincinnati and other eastern cities , in the interest of the cable rail way , reports that ho has closed several important matters , preparatory to com mencing work on the lino. The route , ho said , was .still a matter of question. Work would commence , lie said , as soon as the material could be gotten hero. The property o yner.s of Do > lga strcol held a meeting Friday to see about securing - curing tiio line for that thoroughiaro. For i-omo reason or other there was nol i largo number present , and no stops /ore taken toward offering a bonus , An Honorable A good si/.cd delegation of tlio Legion -if Honor of this state will leave hero on the 23d inst. , to take purl in the installa tion of the officers of the Kansas depart ment which will occur on the 2ith , Gen * oral AlcCook has extended a cordial in vitation nnd it has boon very generally accepted throughout the state. The in stallation will take place in a tent on the parade grounds of the camp which ire located amid the most beautiful natural surroundings. Thn work of the installa tion will bo performed by Colonel Nick- crson. _ DnnclitR by Day anil Nlfiht. The North Omaha brass band , a new nnd promising association under the direction of Prof. Toozor , formerly of the Union Pacilio band , will give a picnic at Hanscom Park on Iha 10th inst. They will make a circut of the street car lines of the city m tlio afternoon then go to the park , when in the evening u moon light dunce will bo hold , Uobhed in Ills Room. Dr. Van Scott , a medical man from PlaUsmouth , who registered at the City hotel Friday reported at police head quarters to-day that ho was robbed of $10 duritijj the night. Saturday upon waking , ho found ids door open nnd his pants lying out in the hall , where they had evidently beep thrown by the thief , ufisr ho had rilllcd them. Arrested in Minnesota.
