8 THEi OMAHA DAILY BEE ; SATURDAY JULY 31 , AT TUB REVOLVER'S ' POINT , Two Footpads "Hold Up" Two Men in North Omala Yesterday Morning , A YOUNG GIRL'S SAD STORY , Bent from Grand Inlnnd 1 y Her He * trnycil Wlml Vice I'roHlilcnt Pot ter Says Tlio Syndlcnto Snlc Odds nnd Ends , Ktc. Hold Work. The carnival of crime inaugurated by the loughs nnil thugs no\v in Oinulia is holding out remarkably well , anil there is no telling whore it is KoiiiR to end. Thursday night , of rather early yesterday morning a rather Inlnri-sting chapter was added to the "talc of blood. " While the sensa tional Susqpulmcli burglary was taking place in the soutnurti end of town , another and almost equally sensational event was transpiring in North Omaha. Mr. Charley Hoth , who resides at 2512 Grand street , was on his way homo from Utiming street about half-past 18 o'clook. Going on to Saunders struct , ho was fol lowed by two follows , wiio , however , kept at a respectable distance , and did not cause young Koth any uneasiness , llo hail traversed perhaps about four blocks on Saundurs street , when tlioi fel lows made u rush and elosed upon him. "Halt , there ! " cried onu of them. lloth stopped and turning asked , "Wlml do you wantv" " \Vo want you to stop and throw up yer hands ! " said the lirst speaker , at this muno time shoving a revolver under lioth'H nose. "D n you , keep quiet or I'll ' give you a dose of cold lead , " lin added , seeing that Kotli was not inulined to submil to such summary treatment. lloth saw that resistance was useless nnd quietly submitted to the footpads. He did not call for aid , for the follows threat ened to kill him if he opened his mouth. They went through Mm , taking every thing that ho had of value. Another and almost similarly bold rob- liory waa practiced upon Evan Williams , iv laborer in the Union I'acilHshons.Two men held him up as lie was going to his home on upiier Cuming street near Col lege place about 12 o'clock. One of them pulled a revolver on him in precisely the same mannorthat lloth was treated , and relieved him of a silver watcli and a few dollars in change. IJoth lloth and Wil liams describe the foot pads as young fel lows. They say that the robbers did not wear masks , but as the night was dark , their countenances were pretty well ( shielded. THE OMJ STOUV. A You UK Girl lied Astray In Grand Island Conins to Oinnlia. A rather pretty German girl , plainly but neatly attired , sat in the parlors of the Woman's Christian homo on Six teenth and Farnam yesterday and wept softly. Her story was the old , old one of woman's misplaced confidence and man's perlidy. Sim was a stranger in a strange city , without money or friends , a victim of tlie seducer's wiles. Her name was Frcderioka Edman , and she was brought to the homo this morning by a sympa- filrizing gentleman who had heard her pad story , and had determined to help her. if possible. The girl cannot speak a word of Eng- liali , and a reporter for the Bun , who called upon her yesterday afternoon , was compelled to muster up his German in order to hold conversation with her. ' ! " 1 came to America two years ago , " Blio said , "with my sister , who is now living on a farm near Grand Island. I came right to Grand Island , and went to work for a family there. Whllo in that place 1 mot August Unschling , a winter in the Independent ollico , wiio led mo astray on a promise to marry mej He sent mo to Omaha two weeks ago.

THE VIEKMNG TKOUBLn" AH Interview AVItli John li. Kennedy ItcKitrilliiK the Matter. "You did an injustice to the Viorlings connected with tlio 1'axton & Viorling ironworks in the article published in your paper last week , " said John L.

C. , the plamtiu" in the action brought in Chicago. " "What do people in Chicago think of the litigation ? " asked the Bui : reporter. "They don't attacli any Importance to it. They consider it a matter of spite on the part of ! ' . C. because his brothers arc moro prosperous than ho , and they say it has in no way allecteil the credit of Viorling , McDowell & Co , , and that it will result in drugging 1 < \ 0. down and building the others up.

" THE OT1IEII BIDE. All AlioutTlint Halo of the Ijiuui Syn dicate 1'ropcrty. The HBK of jTlnirsiiny published an ac count of the misunderstanding which at | ) rcent exists between the trustee" of the South Omaha Land syndicate. That ac count was based upon the statement of ono of the mouthers of the board of trustees. It stated , in ofleet that Mr. Swan had been instructed by the board mentioned to sell the syndicate property in South Omaha to n Scotch syndicate , that ho had proceeded according to in structions and sold the property nnd now , Tftor the sale had boon effected , that a minority of the board , including some of members who had agreed to the original proposition of sale were opposing and uinounced their determination to contest the same in the courts. Last spring Mr. Swan , one of the trus tees of the syndicate , was in Europe. Ho returned and staled to his fellow mem bers of the syndicate that ho had been talking with certain Scotchmen in the old country , nnd from them had received an oiler of-i-T.jO.OOO for the property of the svndieato in South Omaha. The > ur- chafers would pay the amount in cash. J'hoy would build a lioti o for rent ing nirposcs on every oilier lot , on the main : horou < rhtare leading to the stockyards , they would also build a boulevard which would run through the best part of that section of country , and in these and various other improvements , they would expend , they claimed , $2,000,000. The oiler was favorably considered , and , it u meeting of the trustees , after some canvass of the stockholders , the live mom- jers present out of seven comprising the ijoiird , adopted a resolution , anlhori/.mg Mr. Swan to make the sale ho had repre sented. The option was to extend to the irst of August ot the present year. Last Saturday there was another mcot- ng of the trustees , and , al this , Mr. Swan announced that he had not been iblo to cll'ect the sale , mentioned above , ; o tliij Scottisli parly , but that ho had sold the property in question to , ) . II. [ Jossler , of Carlyle , i'a. , and associates. Tlio terms of the sale were one-third cash mil the balance January 1 , 1S87. No guarantee of improvements wore given. These terms set everybody mad , and the minority propose to treat the thing is a fraud , to get the land into the hands of four of tlio trustees with Mr. Bosslo , intl if necessary will fight tlio case iu the courU.

What Ho Ilns to Suy About tlio Pnst Exnrcqs trclicmc. Vice-President Potter of the Burling ton system arrived in the city from Chicago cage yesterday m his special car. llojwas accompanied by the assistant general 'reightagent. Paul Norton , young Potter , Ills , and a friend of the latter , Ed Hay- don. Tlio party took a drive about the city and out to the stock yards and loft for the we.st lasl night. "i am traveling in the west , " said Mr. Potter to a reporter who corralled him in the 1'iixton rotunda , just before dinner , "partly for pleasure and partly for pur poses of inspection. " "Can yon toll mo , Mr. Potter , " nsKcd the reporter , "why it is that the Chicago , Burlington & Quincy refused to cooperate ate with tlio Union Pacilio iu its fast ex press scheme V" ' 'There are several seasons , " replied that gentleman. "In the first place , it would require us to change almost entire ly o ir system of train-running , and to revise , m almost every particular , our time schedules. Then there were other good reasons. Why , wo had a right to decline to go into tlio scheme if wo wanted to. The other Iowa roads didn't ' care to tro into tlio scheme any more than wo did , but they were afraid to say so. So they threw the whole blame upon us. " "The fast express scheme would natur ally have hurt your western business , somewhat ? " "Perhaps , " replied Mr. Potter , slirug- his shoulders. "I ' ' ho ginc suppose , con tinued , "that tlio Union Pacific will go ahead with their scheme , anyway Jot them do it. Wo aronot hindering thorn. " "If they do put on such a train , your road will probably try something of tlio same kind ? " "Time enough to wait and seo. Wo'll sco what the Union Pacific docs lirst , and then we'll try to give thorn our best. " Assistant Superintendent Dickinson of the Union Pacific , said this morning that his roud had not definitely abandoned the fast express scheme , and might yet carry it through. "Ono thing is certain , " he said , "tho Iowa roads won't give us any help in the matter. " PJJ. B.

Stray Ijcnves Kroni n Importer's Note-Hook. "I wish I could make laws. " remarked an old gentleman on a Ciiming streetcar yesterday , " 1 would see to it that no c.hlldrcn would bo allowed to drive horses through the streets of this city. " This public expression was occasioned by a little boy in a delivery wagon on Twenty-third street , as he attempted to control a fractious horse , which finally kicked the wagon to pieces and ran awny. "Ye ? , I'd ' have an ordinance that would stop this infant driving business , which not only endangers the lives of the youths themselves , but makes it a risky tiling for any one on the street. Why , I have noticed that nearly all the teams on these grades are driven by boys , ranging from ten to litleen years of age. It's a shame , and I have no respect for the parent who would allow it. The fact is that they get a good price for the services of their team , and then tho.y can gotl.r ! ? > 0ort.7.'i by shoveling or doing some other work themselves , and tlio hey is to run in a" a mere blind. It ain't right. Where's Iho Omaha humane society. It would bo a darn sight better for ifieso humanitarians to wateli this kind of business than to arrest a follow for looking eross-oyed at n sparrow or saying lo a crow , "lei mo hear you for your caw. " "The drouth has not aft'cclcd the weeds any , " says Jim to Jack. " " it hasn't. I "llight you arc , Why , have lived in Omaha twenty years and I never saw such n weed crop " "And no ono attempts to cut them down , do they , Jack ? " "llight you aro. Not one out of a thou sand. Omaha has no grass growing on its streets , to bo sure , but I'll bo teoto- tally chawed up if they haven't their sidewalks blockaded witli weeds that liang over with their immense growth along the sides of the walks. " "You can find the weed forests right in front of tlio exposition building , can't you , Jack' " "llight you aro. They arc bad in the business portion of the city and horrible in the residence portion. Why , the walks on West Cuming street and on some of the streets adjaeentto St. Mary's nvent'paro really impassible. " "Being all covered with dust , as they now are , and averaging about six loot high , they are splendid tilings to pass through , ain't ' they , Ja ° k ? " "llight you are. Ladies with white dresses like this abnormal growth of weeds. I think it wouhi bo a good thing for the street cleaners to put their sweep ers up for a day or so and get n mower. " "That's good , Jack ! Dov'lish good. Say , landsman , two boors. " "What has bccomcof the hod-carrier ? " "llo has gone , forever , " answered a con tractor , yesterday to a Bic : reporter , as ho dirceted tlio hitter's attention to the mortar and brick elevators ho was work ing with a horse and a small-boy driver in the building ho was erecting. And PO indeed ho had. There were no tall lad ders uion the outside of the building , up whici | ho had climbed with heavy laden shoulders. The only suggestion of hint , were brawny , sun-browned men who rolled barrows of brick and mor tar upon the platform of the elevator. A bell rang. A small boy , with imperial authority authority , shouted "g'lanir. " and a white liorso proceeded to walk his plank. As ho diit. tlio barrow-laden platform disap peared upon the story nbovo and an other platform , with an empty barrow , descended to the floor. The hod-car rier's lot was not a hapuy ono , thoifgh it gave a daily opportunity to rise in the world. This has boon denied the poor liorso who lakes his pluco. Ho never goes beyond Iho flrsl lloor. As if disgusted with the injustice nnd the menial condition of his calling , ho holds his head low , and his eye lias a painful , fur tive manner of trying to avoid your gclanoo. And then , to bo domineered over by a boy seven years of ago ! It is too much for oven an intelligent horse to crivo expression to. "Yes , " repeated Uio contractor , "the hod-carrier has gone , and Ihe liorso and Iho lad have taken his place. " Tlio universal popularity of Mrs. John A. Loffan is a household word among all those who pay the least attonlion to national social events. Especially docs she reign supreme in Washington , but it matters little where she is , or witii what party , or under what ciroumstanccsMrs. Logan is by common consent the queen. While in Omaha Iho olhor day , Colonel Hopkins , who had charge of the Illinois tourists' , appeared at General Logan's car with an armful of railroad papers. On seeing him some of the ladies ex claimed : "Don't lot him in ! He's n book agent ! " 'Never yon mind , " said Mrs. Logan "trcal him with the utmosl kindness , The general's got a number of book agents out now and he depends a great deal on their work. " This sally at the circulation of General Logan's book was understood at once , ami the whole party , including the gen eral himself , enjoyed a harty laugh. TALKS WITH TUAVEljBUS. Short Interviews Gathered in the Hotel Kotumlas. E , F. Warren , Nebraska City : "Tho dis tillery in our city is running again with an increased capacity of about ono thou sand two hundred bushels daily. It has been under way with tlio now manage ment for several months and scums to bo doing well. The Shellenborgors are still in jail nnd will not bo tried until Iho Sep tember term of court. I do not know that there are arc any now developments in their case. The B. & M. are about to commence work on a low bridge over the river that will bo permanent. The water is now on the western side of the island and there is not much of it there. 1 hoar it rumored , also , that the same road intends to straighten its line between Nebraska City nnd Lincoln and thereby shorten the length of the same by about six miles. The distance by wagon from our place to the capital is fifty inilos , while the rail road makes it lifty-oight. But the hitter \vas built to got us much subsidy as pos sible and henoo it made a few moro turns than was ically necessary. Some of these curves arc required for the grades , but I think others might bo dispensed with so that the length of the road would bo de creased by 11 vo or six inilos. The grade on this line , too , is heavier than in that from Plaltsmoutn to Lincoln. It is thought also that this ditlioulty will soon bo removed , and when the road is so im proved will bo used ns the through route from the cast to Denver , instead of by way of Plattsmoutli , as at present , ns it would bo much shorter and have other advantages which the old ono has not.

The Chicago & Alton road is pushing the scheme for all there Is in it , and as the bljl providing the charter is already tlifbuch cousrqss , there is every roaosu to bclfcvo that the bjjdgo will be built. So far as location is cpuccmcd , 1 doubt if a bettor ono could bfe ? ccurod nt any point on the river. Tarcful surveys have domonstrvted the fact that the bridge can bo built for much less money than the one al St. Louis. If the bridge is built the Chicago < fe Alton will cross into Missouri , and reach St. Louis without having to cross Jay ( quid's big structure at St. Louis. This bridge , of course , is now controlled by the big magnate solely to the interests of his roads nnd to the detriment of all others. The Missouri Central road , which is to bo built through Missouri , will connect with tno Alton bridge , and thus deprive the St. 1/ouis bridge of a big slice of business.

Thursday night Dr. Gcrth and Major Birny members of the State Veterinary commission wore met by a Br.i : reporter in company with Dr. llamacciotti , veterinary surgeon for the city. I'noy had just ro- .urned from Chadron and both wo ro feei ng fatigued. They had been expected at that place for several weeks but had al ways been prevented from going tlioro jy pressing calls from nearer points. They were wanted to pass upon an al- cgcd uaso of glanders in a horse which lad attracted the attcntipn of a number of citizens. Since tlio commission was no tified the horse had changed hands sev eral times ami itwas thought it would iiot be an easy mat lor to find him. Luckily , ho was found , buing driven by a man who had just traded for him witli a cowboy - boy , to whom ho had given § 20 to boot , llo was found to bo uH'octod with glan ders , and the owner was ordered to tin- liitcli him. This ho did witli some re- luctaneo. The parly was standing on tlio edge of a precipice , seventy-live feet deep. Dr. Gcrth shot the animal. The latter dropped to ono side and rolled nud rolled until tlio bed of the procmice was reached , where lie lay motionless and dead. During the past week , in this city , glandered hoises have been occupying tlio attention of the commi-.sion , as also that of Dr. llamacciolii. The first case was that of a magnificent cnrrinuo horse , the owner of Which valued it at $1,000. At the suguestion of Dr. Kamacciolti , the horse was killed without waiting for tlio commission. The next case was situated about two blocks from the hist mentioned. It was that o a $150 horse , the owner of which killed him at the suggestion of city veterinary. The next was an animal jus * bouirhl by Mergell A : Uoscn/weig from John Frank The commission acted with Dr. llumac- cintti in this case and killed the animal. Frank , il scorns , held a mortgage on the horse and threatens to sue the state for damages. Two horses , belonging to Mar cus McFaddcn , at Walnut Hill , wore next killed , one of which had an acute attack. This morning the commission visited an other case _ on Sixteenth street and dis covering it to bo a case of glanders , killed the horse. These local cas s of glanders require the special attention of Dr. Pamacciotti , who "is frequently called to pass upon cases which nave not the remotest symp toms of the dangerous disease. These calls frequently take him away from his regular professional practice and ac tually cause him a loss ot time and money. For this work , the doctor is paid by the city tlio munificent salary of if IfiO per year , which really would not pay for the calls ho has made in the last few weeks , when ho was compelled to act in about thirty cases. Death of 3lrs. Aloratt. Mrs. Catharine Moran , mother of Mrs. M. Leary died yesterday morning at the residence of her daughter , 311 N. Thir teenth strcol after an illness extending for tlio past three months. She was in 09th year. The date of her funeral has not yd been announced. It will depend upon the arrival of Mrs. A. D Kelley , a daughter in Cheyenne , and a son who is in Dakota. Bold of those have been in formed of the fact and the former will arrive to-morrow. The Stnrn In Au-just. The first important celestial event for the month is the passage of the now moon with the planet Mercury , now approach ing the earth , about 11 o'clock on the morning of Iho 1st. At noon on the Qd is " . " To tlio Mercury "stationary. torres- tial observer this phenomenon is caused by the earth and Mercury being in line and moving in tlio saino direction. Mer cury being slightly behind the earth in their revolution around the sun. About 4 p. in. of the : Jd , nnd 7W : ! p. m. the same day , tlio grout planets , Jupiter and Uranus are very close to tlio moon a beautiful sight through the telescope , if the weather permits , and about 4tIO : p. m of Ihollli Mars and the moon nro Within a few degrees of each other. About ten o'clook on tlu > morning of the 8th Venus and Saturn are within ono degree of each other , and early risers that morning will bo well repaid iu watching these beautiful stars. The last time they were so close together in the month of August there was an earth quake at Now York city and sections of tno Atlantic coast. At noon on the 11th thn moon becomes full , nnd on the 15th is iu apogee ( its farthest point from tlio earth. On the 10th , about thrco o'clock in llio morning. Mercury roaches inferior conjunction ( passing between the earth and the sun ) ' and becomes a morning star. This is claimed by some to bo the relative posi tion of the full moon and Mercury on tlio day of the crucifixion , Mercury passing in inferior conjunction , at tlio ninth hour ( ! ) ; 00 p. in. ) , causing the earthquake through its magnetic influence with that f the moon. On the sumo day (10th ( ) , at noon. Ju piter and Uranus swing into line with the earth , the two planets bolng within ono degree of each other. This is the great celestial event of Iho month , and , as it occurs but once in every fourteen years , no ono who owns a telescope should miss it. To the naked eye Jupiter alone is visible , but with a powerful opera glass Uranus , his neighbor , can easily bo seen , if the western sky is not too bright. On the evening of the 20lh Neptune is 00 dog from the sun. and on the SJM very closd to the waning inoon. Jupiter is at his apolion point ( farthest from the sun ) about U o'clook in the uftor- noon , a position which ho reaches once in nearly thirteen years. On tlio 25th Mercury is once moro "stationary , " and in the early morning of tho'JOth the "old" moon , is close to Saturn. On the evening and morning of the 27th and SJSth Venus and Mercurr TJi'lS SPACE IS FOR TllK i wno WILL oi'j v irrrji AX NNTIIIE ymr STOCK AT j-i On or about Sept. 1st , 1886. are in conjunction ( close together with the moon , and on the morning of tlio2th ! she eclipses the sun and becomes "new , " the solar eclipse being only partially vis ible in Now York and f-Ome of the Atlan tic states. The month closes with the "new moon , " Jupiter and Uranus in conjunc tion ( near each other ) on tlio morning of tlio lst. As the science of astro-meteorology is based on these celestial phenomena , and their resultant oiled on the atmosphere and the earth , it may bo interesting to meteorologists .and other students of the weather , to notice the hours and dates given , and their compounding results.
