In tlio afternoon after ho had finished up his business , hu wont down to the depot. and awaited thu starting of tiio one o'clock dummy for Omaha. While sit ting hi the depot. ho trot into conversa tion with a young man evidently from the country , who" said that ho was going Omnha. The yoiin" man wa somewhat "green" and Mr. Weinert took particu lar pains to enlighten him on several topics. Tim ruilie had with him u friend. who was struggling against a strong ten dency to sloop , and who would ever and anon close his- eyes and lireak for the "land of Nod. " Mr. Woitiert pro posed that the three RO to n saloon and got n drink , which might have the ell'ect of keeping the sleepy man awake. They were just leaving the depot platform. when a big policeman stepped up and placing Ills hand on Weinert's shoulder , said : "Como alonir with me. " "What for ? What have 1 done ? " nsked the Omaha man. "Never mind , " returned tlio copper tightening his grasp , "you just como along with mo. " "Hut won't you let me say something ? Can't I explain r" " " the noliee- "Kxplain nothing , was - man's reply , "you eomo to the station with me , and then you can talk as much as yon please. " And the C. 15. copper hustled Ins pris oner oil' to the station at a lively pace , refusing to allow him to stop on the way and establish his identity. When he arrived at the station ho was turned over to the marshal , who listened to Mr. Weinort's explanation , and at once saw that a serious mistake had boon made. The Omaha man was released with pro fuse apologies , and sent on his wiiy. not exactly rejoicing , however. Mr. \ \ einert fiweajs vengeance on that policeman , and if any way ever presents itself , he "will get even. " THIS UOHONIdlt'S I10USI3. Ho Tries to Furnish a Job For Hit * Muster. SalurdayBNathan McGraw , a young man emplovcd aa foreman in Mentor's livery stable on Capitol avenue , was kicked by n horse and sustained injuries which m.iy prove fatal. There is some question as to how the accident hap pened. It seems that McGraw wont into the animal's stall to throw the harness on him anil in some way frightened tlio horse. A moment later ho was found bleeding and unconscious a few foot away from tlio horse's feet Ho was picked UD and removed to Dr. Wood's ollico where his wounds were temporarily dressed. Thence lie was taken to St. Joseph's hospital , where ho is now under tire care of Dr.MoKcnna. Jl was found that his skull had been frac tured , ami that in several other places his head was injured. His leg also sustained severe contusions llo is now delirious , and the physicians think that there are grave doubts as to his recovery. Mc Graw is a young man twenty-seven years of age , and was to have been married in a fbw days. The horse was owned by Coroner Droxcl , and has always been considered a gentle , tractable animal. MYSTERIOUS DISAPPKA RANGE. A Man Leaves Ills Wife niul Sends a hotter to Ills Brother. Sam Hall , a man residing in the north ern partot the city , recently disappeared. His wife and child alone were aware of the circumstance , until a few days ago , when Hall's brother came into town , with n letter from the man who had gone away. The fact could not longer bo con cealed and the agony which the wife had HUll'ored in silence , soon found ex pression in erica and tears. The letter is as follows : OMAHA , June 24. Hrotlicr John ; Can you or will you do me a favor ( the lasl perhaps I Bhull over ask of you ) . If you can , como to Omalia and KO to 2-07 ! l/.ard street and ask lor me , and 1 will make all right In tlio iuttiro It I can , ami If I cannot , do lor mine the same ns 1 would for yours if positions were reversed. SAM HAM * The letter was directed to the brother at Chelsea , Jowa. It reached him on the 2th ! ) , and ho immediately took the cars and caino to this city. Tlio envelope bore the postmark of South Omalia. Where Hall has gone , or what induced him to deliberately run away , leaving Ids family unprovided for , cannot be bo told by any body. Tlio husband's brother oil'ored to take Mrs. Hall and child to his homo in Iowa , but she declined to go , preferring to work out a living in her own behalf. JUDICIAL DOINGS.

"You think those Hashing ornaments which that lady has around her pretty neck are diamonds , do you ? " said an auditor In the lioyd on the first night of the "Mikado" by the Gran company. "Well , they're nothing of the kind. I'll venture the assertion they didn't cost her ? 10. Six years ngo 1 hnit three shirt studs which all my friouds admired , - mired , mid dozens of them wanted mete to ell , lint I preferred to keep them , They wore beauties , really , and I did not care to par ! com pany with thorn because of the attention they commanded. Well , I was a little more free with money then , and I had run up quite a bill at one of our liv ery stables , amounting to something in the vicinity of one-hundred and fifty del lars. The proprietor of the stable , ! guess , Ju\d become a little nervous and one day taid to mo that he allow mo § 200 for my studs and take out the ( litter- unco between that amount and and my account , in trade. Just the day that 1 had refused $75 for one of the beauties , and after considering the proposition , I concluded not to accept It. If I had accepted , how inueh do you ex pect I would have made' Just $1UI. It's a fact. I bought those 'diamonds' for just six dollars from a jeweler in this town. They passed for diamonds , but there l n't one man in n dozen who can't bo most cruelly deceived when ho goes purchasing diamonds. " "Talk about tax-shirking , " said an old resident and manufacturer , a few days ago. "I don't believe in it. I have re sided hero for thirty years. When my taxes were low , I paid them. When they wore high I paid them also. 1 never went before the board of equaliza tion in my life , until last week and then , let me tell you how got 1 there. 1 was compelled to go in order to s.itisfy a man who either wanted to liavo his assess ment reduced or mine increased. To do either of these ho had to lie by saying he had receipts trom mo showing that he was paying mo rent for a i ieco of my ground' which n tenant used. Now that man never paid a cent of rent , though the property In ques tion 1 permitted him to UM- . until lately , when 1 paved it and refused pcrmisMon to my friend's tenants to drive over with their wagons. Thus shut oil' , tlio tenants wanted their rent re duced $80 otherwise they would move. Now tlds reduction in rout , my friend agreed , was evidence of the depreciation of Ids property and considered : is a ren tal which , all along ho theorized had boon payiUK mo I Did you ever hear of tliii like' ? There are a great many crimes done in the name of liberty , but not one- half of the shames have been written which have been in the name of tax- shirking. " " 1 wish that something could bo done to call the attention of the city ollicials to the disgraceful way in which the burglars are running things at present , " said a citizen to-diy. "Up in my part of town the central portion half a dozen bold robberies have taken place within the past three nights. What wo want and must have , and ought to have , ns taxpay ers , is better police protection. Not that 1 belong to that class of grumblers who are always blaming Marshal Cummings for all this lawlessness. The blame rests directly with the council , and indirectly with the mayor. The fact is , that tlio po lice force of this growing city of Omaha is not large enough by half. There ought to be at least thirty more men on the force , brave and experienced men , who arc capable of doing good _ work. There is no citv of Us population in America , so far a3"my memory serves me , that spreads over as much territory as Omaha , and for that reason it takes nn unusually large force to cover it properly. The idea of trying to protect tlio city at night with a force of fifteen policemen is ridic ulous. A complete reorganization of the force , under a board 01 commissioners , with an increase in the number of men is what is needed , and without delay. Marshal Cummings has been trying for the last year to secure that very thing. And 1 want to say in conclusion that as long as he has no voice whatever in the personnel or size of the force under him , it is ridiculous to blame him for the inade quacy of that force to cope with the crimi nals which are Hocking into the city. " T.owcrltif * the Assessments. The only result of the recent Head per sonal tax investigation is that the com missioners have decided to lower instead raise sonic of the valuations. The as sessments of Paxton , Gallagher & Co. , V. M. Stcclo & Co. and Tootle , Maul & Co. wore lowered , and in other instances the same measure will probably bo taken. I'uxton , Gallagher & Co. , wno wore as sessed at . * aoOUO personal property , will now bo quoted at ? W,000. D. M. Stcelo & Co. wore reduced in assessment from § 10,000 to $25,000. while Tootle , Maul & Co.'s assessment was changed fromt $50.000 to ? 3j,000. Only one assessmon was raised , and that was at the request of the properly owner himself , W. ,7. lirontcli , who requested that his personal prone.rty bo assessed at $5,009 instead of $3,000. _ It May le Counterfeit. Mention has been made in the BEE of the fact that S. Lehman , the lower Farnam street pawnbroker , had pur chase a silver dollar of the .series of 1801 for ? 100 , the coin on account of its great rarity being costly. Now it develops that there is some doubt as to the gen uineness of the coin. Col , Lmlding of the army headquarters who Is an export neumismatiht has carefully examined it and while ho is not positive as to its being a counterfeit , ho has grave doubts that it is gonnine. Mr. Lcnman has become alarmed and has sent it east for in spection by an export , who will make the necessary thorough tests. Quito a num ber of these socallcd rare coins are said to have , been sold hero and in Council Bluffs. Notci. The bids on the First National bank building , which have been opened , arc now being assorted , and the contracts will bo let on Monday. Senator Paddock has given orders that another story shall bo added to his new building which is now being erected on Douglas and Klovcnth streets. This will make the structure live slorios high , and one of the largest and finest in the city.Messrs. Messrs. Barker Bros , have also given orders that smother story shall bo added to their hotel on Thirteenth and Jones street , making tlio strueturo live stories high , with ground dimensions of 00x88 Rota Ticket. 1 ho young Philander , Oscar Julii , who arrived liorol'ri day after having been robbed of all his money on the train be tween New York and this city , left Sat- urpay for his destination , Carbon , Wyo. The Union Pacific ollicials hero telegraphed his friends at that place and a ticket was telegraphed back , with cash enough to enable him to subsist on the road. A. O. II. Election.

Fred Piekons , chief clerk of the post- olbVu , has gonu to Chicago on official business. SIXTEENTH STREET VIADUCT' . Why the Union Pnclllo Has Delayed Jin Erection. The contract to build the viaduct at Sixteenth street was let some time ago to Kuymond & Campbell , and although n great deal has been said about the work being begun Immediately , the only thing thus far done has been the digging of a liolo on the line of the proposed strueturo. Some time ago , by way of explanation for the tardy commencement of the undertaking ' dertaking , 'it was stated that a change had been made in the chords by the sub stitution of iron for wood , the cost of which was shared by tlio Union Paeillo and II. & M. roads. It was thought that when thai was effected the work would progress , hut it has since been confronted with another dillicully. These delays are annoying to the resi dents on the street both north and south of the track , as well as injurious to the business of many ot the merchants of the city. A Br.u reporter looked for the cau c of the delay Saturday and found that it originated with the Union Paeilie. This roail has tour tracks crossing Sixteenth street , but they have come to the conclusion that tliuao.willuot be sullicienl to accommodate their bust- ne.s.i. They intend to increase the num ber to twelve and on these do all the switching necessary to making up of trains tor both east and west. Jn order to lay those tracks , the road will have to till up quite an amount of the yard to make it level In some places ihu fill will bo as much as twelve feet. With such a'till iho road would not have the clearance of twenty- two feet which it requires between the track and the bottom of tlio bridge. As a consequence to got this clearance , the plan of the viaduct will have to be changed , raising the road bed about ten feet. The plan with this change has al ready beed made. It will afford an easier road in which to travel , because , in the old plan , the viaduct sloping from each towards the tracks , at the rate of three feet in 100 , gave a fall of liftoen feet. In a great measure this will be done away with in the new plan , and the roadway will bo more on a level. Tlio plans mentioned have been made by the Union Paeilie , and are , it is under stood , ready to bo submitted to the city engineer. As soon as he ap proves of them work will bo commenced. The expense of this change , both in the material to bo employed and other matters , will have to be borne by the Union Paeilie , because the road had accepted the old plans and specifications and are entirely responsible for this change. Saving the Roys. The work at the Buckingham among the intemperate is being prosecuted faith fully by the friends of the cause , who , though few in numbers , realize the truth that souls are saved "Not by might nor by power but by My spirit , saith the Lord of hosts. " The Sunday , Tuesday , Thursday and Saturday evening meetings are hold reg ularly with a good attendance , when from one to six sign the pledge and start on a new life. It is a common occur rence to hear men say , " 1 stopped in here a week or so ago just to hear the music and came around to-night to sign the pledge. " They had thought the matter over and resolved to leave their cups. Last Sunday evening the meeting was led by Mr. Jonlin , secretary of the Y. M. C. A. and the singing by Mr. Nichols. The attendance was ubonl sixty ; six arose for prayers. It is generally known that the rent was raised Juno 1st to Sl'.i3 ! dollars per month for fourteen rooms including the hall. Expense of ice-water barrels about $10 per month.
