THE OMAHA DATLT BEE : TUESDAY , AUGUST rr , iwo. * HE WAS ALMOST A MURDERER A Soldier Arrested For Attempting to Kill a Fellow Cavalryman. NEBRASKA POSTAL DIVISION. It la Abolished by Tlio Postmaster General A Cracksman Arrested Hall Notci Other Local Mutters. A Military Sensation. Sergeant Simons , a colored soldier of the Ninth cavalry at the rillo range , re ported to Adjutant General brock , at army headquarters yesterday , with a prisoner. Pri vate Ed wards , of troop ( J , Minth cavalry , wJiohas been arrested for nttenipcd mur der and desertion. Tlio authorities arc very reticent about the matter , but the facts as ro llably learned by n reporter , are these- Edwards , who is a negro of ugly temper anil dangerous disposition , on Saturday evening , late , became Involved in a row with a fellow soldier , Private Frank .Shephard , of Troop M , Ninth cav- M nlry. Hot words led to something worse , K and Edwards soiling IIM gun , raised it with one hand nnd aimed nt Shepherd's head. The latter was standing by his tent on the rillo range , by tlio moonlight , could easily see Edward's action. The latter tired. Tlio bullet whi//sod pint the cur of Shepherd , who throw his head to ono side and thus escaped instant death. The gun , htrauiie to say , was so close lo his face that tlio powder burned it ter ribly. Ho has been removed to the hospital at the post , where he is now un der treatment. The physicians think that he will iccover , though he will be scarred for life. The explosion of the gun nrouscd every man in the camp , nnd as soon us tlio true state of all'airs was learned the wildest excitement prevailed. A thorough search was made for the ollbndor , Private Edwards , but ho had disappeared. Sunday night , however , after twenty- four nouns' desertion , ho roturni'd nnd guvo himself up to the' authorities in charge of the camp. Ho was taken yesterday'to the guard house at the fort nnd it Is probable that his trial by court martial will como off within a few davs. Edwards is a haul customer. Ho was once under Colonel Henry while that of ficer was at Fort 6111s , N. M. , and was arrested for stabbing a fellow prisoner. 'I ' Ho was tried.convicted nnd sentenced to II the military p'rison for two years. CUTTING DOWN EXPENSES , Tlio Postal Division of Nebraska and Wyoming Abolished. An important move which has just been made by the postmaster-general leaked out yesterday , beinpQnothing less than the abolishing of the postal divi sion of Nebraska and Wyoming , with headquarters at Omaha. This division has been in existence for several years , nnd bus been in charge of a chief inspec tor with several assistants , who con trolled all business in this state and Wyoming. The postmaster-general has ordered it abolished , and the business will hereafter bo transacted from Denver , tno headquarters ot the Colorado divi sion. Mr. 11. E. Spanglor , the chief of the present Nebraska division , will by this change be sent , to Chicago , Mr. Brown to Denver , and Mr. Anderson to Portland , Oregon. The now division will consist of Colorado rado , Nebraska , New Mexico , Wyoming and Dakota. This move has been under contempla tion for some time. When Chief Postal Inspector J. C. West was in the city a few weeks ago , ho intimated to Mr. Spungler that something of the sort was liable to turn up though it was just possi ble , ho said , that it might not occur. Since then , however , the postmaster general lias decided to make the move , nnd on and after September 1 , the di vision will bo abolished. A gentleman speaking of the mrtter yesterday said : "This move has boon made not on account of any de sire to aim a blow at the inter ests of Omaha or Nebraska , but si in ply to cut down expenses. By doing away with this division , und adding Nebraska uud Wyoming to tlio Colorado division , nil this business can bo transacted from Denver which is n convenient and central point. In this way a great stroke of economy will bo achieved. " The officials about the federal building received yesterday copies of President Cleveland's circular letter warning oliico holders against using their position for polical ends or to further their private interests. CIUMINAfjS FAL.IJ OUT. A Burglar "Pouches" on a Knplst , Who KotnllatcH. Mention was made in the BEE Satur day of the fact t.uui an escaped convict mimed Ashman , from tlio Michigan pen itentiary , who had been serving a sent eneofor rape had been arrested in this city bylShoriirCoburn. Yesterday a rather sensational sequel to the afi'air turned up in the arrest of J , N. Meyers Afjlnnaii's pal , who had placed the authorities on his partner's track Meyers hud done this with the hope of scouring a portion of the rowunl which been ollbrcd for Ashman's arrest. From all appearances , his greed has Involved him in n bad scrape. Ash man Yesterday "poached" on Myers , i\nd informed Shoritf Coburn that ho was n professional burglar who had boon operating in this city and Council Blutl's for several weeks past. Further more Ashman declared Meyers was the man who cracked the bufo nt the transfer depot about two weeks ago. As soon as Ashman had finished relating his Story to Coburn , MurMiul Cummlngs WHS fionlfor at once. That official immediately - mediately arrested Meyers , who hap pened to bo about the court house at that time , nnd locked him up. Meyers claimed to bo nn innocent , nnd disclaimed nil knowledge of the transfer burglary. Ho is uiuloubtudly a dangerous character , liowover , and certainly looks llko u first- class nil around crook. By a strange coincidence , n workman in the Chicago Lumber yard yesterday foumbset of crucKsmnu's tools concealed umlnr n pile of boards. The tools were wrapped up in a copy of the " .Spotting LUn , " with n HKI : of the data of August 8 , showing that they had not been there Jong , They consisted of three drills und H brace , for drilling holes in the snfo door , a funnel for pouring in tlio powder , fcOVcral lengths of fuse , bomo wax for grousing thu drills , wire , oto , , ete. Muyrrs Has benn Keen loafing about this lumber yard on several occasions , und It is { hot-lit that the kit of tools belongs to him. Detective Vnlontlno. of ( ho Union Pacific , who Is working up the matter , thinks that lie will bo tiblu to provo thai Meyors Is the man who cracked the safe nt the transfer depot. Deputy Bhoriir Blair , of Michigan , arrived yesterday uud return with his prisoner last night. SODAhlSTSMlKCHPTION. An IntcromiiK Corcmonr nt tlio Cnth- cdr.il of Kt. Phllomcnn. Sunday the feast kof the Assumption was celebrated at the cathedral of St. Philomcna in an unusual manner. In the morning nt seven o'clock there was high muss nt whicji the members of the young la tics' ' sodality nnd the young men who had just organized a gentle men's sodality , approached communion. At 10 3) o'clock there was solemn high mass which was celebrated by Father Carroll , McCarthy and Boyle. In tun evening at 7W : ! o'clock , a programme of unusual interest was carried out , The members of the young ladles' so dality mot nt the school house and clothed in white with ( lowing veils and wreaths of Ilowers adorning their heads , marched with banners to the church. They were accompanied by thirty-live young men , each ol whom Were a pale blue badge. designating the gentlemen's sodality of the church. Several hymns WITH sung by the members of both sodalities , after which the gentlemen numbered wore re- coked into the sodality just orL'ani/cd. and fifteen ladles wore received Into the sodality for young ladies which was established some years ago. The sermon was preached by Yuthor Mc Carthy who spoke iu feeling terms of the edifying reception , the spiritual favors it would grant to the participants and the benr-lRs that might in many other ways bo expected. Ho also referred to the fact that the day was the tenth anni versary of the establishment of the first sodality of the city , nn organi/ation which though acting in an undemonstra tive manner had yet maintained exis tence. The speaker warmly com mended the efforts of Father Carroll who had Infused now vigor into tlio older and established tlio younger sodality. Tlio latter irontlnman is the director of each society , while the president und secretary respectively of the gentlemen's sodality are C. J. Smyth and M. P. O'Brien. DniNlUNG MUD. Flro Hydrants , Too , Which Would bo Worthless In a Fli'o. D Councilman Dailoy , yesterday morning , told a Bur. reporter that the rcrent examina tion of the lire hydrants of the city devel ops the fact that in many of them in southeast and southwest the pressure was inadequate to supply a serviceable stream and in some water failed entirely to How. Ho bad no doubt that a number of them were clogged up with mud. The way ho bought to remedy this state of affairs ivas to lofuso to pay for hydrants which ild not bo relied on for watut. The water works company , ho thought , ought to bo compelled to have an inspector go iiround at stated intervals _ nnd see that every hydrant was in condition to boused. Air. Lluiloy further said that the intense lieut of the past month had something to lo with tliis state of affairs , as it had also with the muddy condition of our water. During some of tlio hot days of July 8,000,000 , gallons of water bad been con sumed in the oity. It had boon lurishly nnd cruelly wasted in spi inkling and in other ways. And yet the capacity of the settling reservoirs was only 0,000,000 gallons lens , This did not jrivo sufficient time to Jot the water sottle.and as a consrquonco consuineis got nearly all the mud of the river in the water they received through the hydrants. The water did not reach the city from the reservoir on the hill , as many thought , but came through the pipes from the basins at the bottoms without having sufficient time to bo clar ified. Mr. Dailoy thought that this state , of affairs should" bo improved , and the waterworks ho placed on a basis com mensurate with the demands of the city. GEN. JOHNSTON llili. The Veteran Ex-ilobel Prostrated by the Heat Kail Notes. Mr. Thomas Orr , the chief clerk in Soneral Manager Callawuy's oliico ercovi- d yesterday private advices to the efi'cct that General Johnston , the government railway commissioner , who loft hero Saturday morning , was suddenly and seriously taken ill at North Platto. Ho is completely prostrated by this recent hot spell and consequently will bo obliged to give up his con templated trip over the Pacific linos. Ho will return east via the Kansas division as soon as possible. General Johnston is 70 years of ago , and his enfeebled health will not permit him to run any risks. Advices were received yesterday that ex tensive storms on the Colorado division of tlio Union Pacific caused n washout of 200 foot of track near Hortenso , Col. , last night The track has been repaired and trains are now running as usual. The first train on the Missouri Pacific between Weeping Water and Lincoln will be run between the 20th and 28th of this month. The agreement between the road nnd Lincoln is to have the train to run before the Ibt day of September. The company is now fixing its stations und getting them ready for occupancy. There will bo four of these , namely , Wabush , Elmwood , Eagle and Walton. The only round house will bo at Lincoln. It is quite likely that a train will bo rim from Lincoln to this city for Lincoln business independently of those which will connect with the regular through trains. M. M. Kirkmnn , comptroller of the Chicago & Northwestern road , was in the city ycstenlay niorning. Ho hud some business to trunsu'ot in western lown , and then ran over hero to wait for the return train last niirlit for Chicago. J 13. McClure , passcncer agent of the Chicago , MilwnuKce & St. Paul , is again in town after u trip west. Ho leaves to dny for Norfolk. KEV. Bill. IIAhL CAN GO. Such It Booms , Was the Ttcsolutlon of tlio Presbytery. A reporter for the BHK culled upon a member of the southwest Presbyterian church yesterday morning and.larned thai ID all probability the local presbytery would uccopt th resignation of Kov. T. C. Hall , as pastor of the church in ques tion. The protest against the acceptance filed by the pttrisbionora was more by way of compliment to Mr. Il.ill than a dcsiro to keep him against his will. The prosbjtory understood this nnd wouli doubtless a-rreo to penult Mr. Hall to of ficluto in Chicago. The latter baa accepted the cull of ono of the most charming churclipi theru uud doubtless intended to otllolato in i when ho should return from Eutopo With regard to ttm "Christian Hour , " the gentleman in question said ho know i was Hov , Mr , Hull's mtont to continue its publication nnd oomo lioro nt lens pnco a month to help it along and muko it a first class pupor. The meeting of the picsbytory , hn hnld had been but poorly attended , und the subject of the South west eluiroh's protest wus laid over til the nevt luctitlna in September. Hov Mr. Uoyd , tit nroscnt editor of the "Christian Hour1 ' preaches on Sunday at the churcli mentioned. A lilltlo More Time. Marshal Cuiumliigs said yesterday Ilia ho'did not o > cpect to commence killing the dogs found on the streets without the proper llconso tass for several days to coma ynt. ThU is to give the owners o : thn various canines nn opportunity to properly provide thoirdogs with the tags Iu a short time , however , the period o grace v.ill have expired und slaughtering will counnonco in good earnest. AM > SONG. Xhd Features of Sunilny NlRlit's Per- forninnco nt tlin Statlt. The raciest programmes of the season at tlio Stadt tlicjitro summer garden was that of Siimlaylniglit , consistingof "Mon sieur Hercules" nnil "Tollpatch , " In the first , there was a happy mixing up of characters conducing to a most laugha ble gcric.s J > f absurd situations. The weight of the piece was bravely born by Messrs. Schniitz , llorsky and Hatirels. Mr. SchmttB made a bold , dashing "Schrier , " with an excellent makeup. Mr. Horsky's "Hercules" was admirable , and when the lniiontiro | of his strength was shown by a little child running away with his "threo-liunilreil-pouiul weight , " with the manipulation of which ho had astonished his tulmirors , the curtain fell with rounds of apphmso. Mr. linurels' "Malilmanii" was : v faultless impersona tion of an old gentleman unused to the bnisqnoness to which he was innocently treated by "Schrier. " iTollpatch" kept the audience In laugh ter and upulatipo throughout its presen tation. Mr. Hattrois was Ihu central figure , ably assisted by Mrs. I'uls-Ahl , and Air. llorsky. Mrs. llatircis had little to do and Mr. 1'nls made an excellent hit in the unimpoi taut Dart assigned him. Mrs. Puls-Alil made a very clever act in Char lotte , and in her opening vocal number , in which she sang of love making in ovcral Gorman dialects , received a most icarty recall. The piece turned upon ho mistakes mtulo by a blundering , self- issumptivo servant and the unmitigated joldness with which he lied himself out f all his predicaments. The part may ic considered as one of Ihu best assumed ) y Mr. Uaurris. NcM Sunday evening , "Apfel Hoschen" vill bo presented with song. The Courts. Architect .Fowler sues C. E.

A Ijoulsvillo Mistake. The Louisville "Observer" of last Fri- Jay contains a paragraph which , whether it shows the carelessness in reading proof or malicious intent of the editor to deceive Ills readers , may mislead uninformed people who Tcad It. It says , arnong , other things , that ' 'the Omaha Fair asso ciation's buildings wore struck by light ning and entirely consumed by lire. " Jf tliis wore true , there would be n poor prospect for the proposed Omaha fair , for which arrangements are now beliig made. The fact is that but one barn was destroyed , and that has almost been re built. Onolt's Hotel , Lincoln , Nob. , opened March 15th , first class in every respect. Cattle Carrctl. The shipment of cattle from the west ern and southwestern plains has already commenced. The Ogallulla Cuttle com pany commenced to send in their stock on Friday , and a number of trains of them have already arrived at the South Omaha stock yards. Six trains reached there on Sunday and three more werelrcc- eived yesterday. As _ a consequence , the business of the Union L'ucilic between that point and the city has been consid erably increased and will be more so when those trains commence to run to the cast.
