been no failure , lie had merely sold out
Ins btislneas , * ho Raid , to the Franr.-Valk
lirewing Company. It was learned from
other sources that the sale was nmdo to
mut't the demands of creditors , who wore
pressing their clafms. The purchasers
were among the heavy creditors , as Mr.
Froyhan has been handling their goods at
wholesale. The amount paid by them
for the slock could not be ascer
tained. The First National bank of
this city wns among Mr. I'ruyhan'ti cred

outstanding bills against his trade. No
action has oeen taken as yet by the cred

people of the state is respectfully di-
reeU-d. These are the Omaha talr and
the Interstate Industrial Exhibition. The
first of these is in Its second year. The
second is now undertaken for the first
time. So lar .as visitors are concerned.
those emcrtainnmnls arc independent of
each other. Yet they are open at about
( he same time. One is in the city , the
other at the fair grounds , a short dis
tance outside the city limits. Each in
nearly e.vory respect dillors from the
other , so that every visitor to Omaha
during fair week , to tuko in allthesighfs ,
must sen both the fnir and the exposition.
lloth form a show which has never boon
equalled in this part of the country.
Till : OMAHA I'Atlt.
This will bo held on the spacious
grounds immediately outside the city
limits , which have been provided with
the fastest half mile track in the country ,
the finest grand stand west of Chicago ,
and a host of other structures and .stalls
equalled in no town west of Chicago. '
The ollieers comprise the following men :
.Jos. Garnoau , H , Kitchtm , Huirh Clark ,
1) . II. W heeler , J. 11. McShaiic , J. T.
Clark and Churchill Parker. The attrac
tion here , in the main , will be those of a
state fair , with the exception that the
whole country will be levied on for fea
tures. Already , these are coming in with
unexampled frequency. There will bo ag
ricultural exhibits from every part of the
state and mineral curiosities from every
part of the country. The mining regions
of the west and northwest have already
.sent in their contributions , especially
those from northern Nebraska , where
IMVT fabulous fortunes are being made
by the hundreds there engaged. Agri
cultural implement men from all sec
tions will display the largest number of
machines for the use of the farmer ex
hibited west of the Missouri. Even
we.itern Iowa contributes to the quota
and will send hundreds of spectators.
The leading manufacturers of Omaha
and surrounding states will luivo work
ing machines on the ground and in tlio
halls. Then comes the racing features.
These will take place every day during
the fair. Ten thousand dollars' will bo
given in prizes for these alone. There
will bo trotting and running and running
running for two-year-olds , trotting for
threo-yoar-olda , trotting for classes of

greater and lessor times. Hesldes these
there will bo running and other trotting
races numbering about twenty-live for
all of which the greatest number of en
tries over rccordeu here have boon made.
On Thursday a purse of $3,500 will bo
trotted for by two of the most noted
horses in the country. These are llarry
Wilkca and Phyllis. Everybody knows
that those horses are among the list of
famous ones. It reouired an inducement
"
to bring them hero. Jt was sfa.OOO. He-
sidce tliat inducement an extra $500 has
been guaranteed to the horse which
makes 2:18. : That will bo the fastest
time ever made in this part of the , world.
It will brinjr lovera of sport from all
parts of the west , because no such horse
llesli has been exhibited here since the
appearance of Harus eighty years ago.
There will be three balloon ascensions
during the f.vir , by the celebrated Professor
ser Oscar Hunt. These will take place
on Tuesday , Thursday and Saturday.
Tills is a novelty rarely exhibited , and
yet it has an indefinable attraction for
thousands of people. Ik-sides , there will
bo Imtcher's equestrian gymnasium , con
sisting of four horses galloping nt light
ning speed , supporting a series of com
plicated trapezes , upon man performs
the most daring and skillful evolutions.
Then , hcro is a groyhptmd race , winch
six of these noble animals run with the
celerity of the wind , and with the same
desire of winning that actuates human
beings. Their swiftness is one of the
marvels of the huntsmen's world. He-
sides these , there will bo a hundred other
novelties too numerous to muntion.onoof
which will bo a baby show , in the beauty
and chivalry of the infantile world of
Omaha will bo displayed. Such a curi
osity as this is for the first time intro
duced into the stuto , nnd the collection
of the cherubs now guaranteed , is in ex
cess of e.vory anticipation.
The cars run to the goitnds , and will
deposit patron at overryhotir.
INTHH-STATE EXrOSITIOJf.
Tins wfll be held in the new exposition
buildini : on the corner of Capital avenue
and r'ifleonth street. This structure is
not yet one year old. It is built of brick
and covers nearly an entire block. It is
fashioned , in many rcjpccts. after the
famous exposition building of Chicago ,
and is intended for precisely the same
objects.
This exposition will bo a revelation to
the peoule of Nebraska. Two hundred
exhibitors have been clamoring for space ,
and as the duy of opening approaches
the niiinhorpf parties desiring to display
their goods increases almost one hundred
fold. The immeiitio building , floor , gal
lery and nn annex , larger than any hall
in the city , will bo covered with the
choicest , richest , and most unique dis
plays of goods nnd manufactures over
collected west of the Mississippi. Every
foot of the area mentioned , except that
devoted to avenues and passages , will bo
utili/.ed to disnlay the finest goods
over catalogued in Omaha , and show
the various means and appliances made
use of by the manufacturers in our midst. .
There is nothing that our people eat ,
wear , drink , or in nny way handle which
will not bo displayed , arranged in novel
designs and surrounded by decorations
intended at once to attraot and delight
the eye. U. M. Stccle , for instance , will
put in a plate glass house costing $1.000 ,
the interior of which will contain a
miniature wholesale grocery houso. The
drug house of H. 'L' . Clarke will put up
another house of the same kind , clear as
crystal , costing $1,000. Cruighton col
lege will have a room full of philosoph
ical instruments , all of which will bo
utilized in the sciontilio and yet popular
experiments which will bo made free in
tliu presence of the visitors , during the
day and evening. There will bo another
electrical display by Prof. Studoll , I of
European reputation , who will hourly de
light audiences with the tunglo which
feoeins to reside in his hands
when working with electricity. The
feature alone , in largo cities , de
mands an admission price of GO cents.
Here no charge will bo mado. The art
gallery will occuuy the custom end of
the trail cry. Tliu loading artists of the
country are contributing to its walls. Jt
has boon tilled up after the manner with
lights , relleutors , canopies and colors ,
of all the loadinggallories of the world.
Not less than $100,01 alone in art and
bric-a-brac will bo displayed in these
rooms alone. The uallcry walls , of nearly
seven hundred foot in length , will be lit
erally covered with pictures of nil kinds ,
There will be curiosities from Japan ,
China , Europe , the Indian country , to
gether with the only display of the rich
heirlooms which to-day arc lodged in the
homes of wealth in thii city. Some of
those -tapestries , for instance are val
ued at $10,000 , while 'others will aggre
gate no li-ss than $30,0(10 ( , from certain
individuals. It wutild bo useless

Julius Sevorin , of Aurora , Ind. , an ex
pert in the gas business , i < s in the city on
business connected with the Omaha gas
company. Yesterday ho went out to
South Omaha und tnado an examination
of the gas well. As was previously stated ,
the slock yaids company are putting
down the well in hopes of striking water ,
Hildas they are In haste for water , they
had driven the iron tubing lower down
and had fihut oil' Iho supply of gas.
Mr. Sin-erin was not able to experiment
with the gas , but made a careful exami
nation and reports that the indications
strongly favor tlio presence of conibusti-
bio gas. "Tho reason why the men at
the well were not iiblo to ignite the KIIS , "
explained Mr. Severin. "is very simple ,
the pressure which must have been about
120 pounds to the cubic inch , was so
great that It would blow out the light.
If they had tapped the iron tube
and conducted a small volume of the gas
into a tank where the pressure would bo
light they would have undoubtedly had
no trouble in igniting it. The pressure
on the gas in the Omaha mains is only
four or live pounds to the inch , and if it
was increased to 120 pounds it would bo
entirely impossible- tight a gas jet It
is nothing strange that natural gas
should bo discovered in this vicinity.
' 1 he earth IB full of gis. : and the time is
coming when it will bo a greater rarity
not to have natural gas than it is now to
have it. At the present time natural gas
is found in a great many localities , but
not in siilHcient quantities to make it
useful. " Mr. Severin then related a
story that happened a good many years
ago. A party of young men , of which ho
was one , wont down the Ohio river on a
lishing expedition. They camped for
several dnys on the banks of the river
and in place of n table , the cook had set
up an old sugar barrel. The head was
out nnd the barrel gradually settled
down into the sand. One day the cook
was cleaning and lighting a lantern , and
happened to knock out a pjug in tliu bottom
tom of the barrel : in an instant : i little
llanio shot up from the opening and
quickly disappeared. The next instant
there was a .slight explosion sullieient to
overturn the barrel and nearly scare the
life out of the cook. The secret of this
was that natural tras had gradually ac
cumulated in the bjarrel and was ignited
by the cook's lantern. The same phe
nomenon can bo witnessed in a jiood
many places alotif' tli"6'5dis3oiiri river , in
this vicinity , whici''Mry ( Soverin regards
as a fact indicatiucfthe existence of nat
ural gas in larKd quantities. At South
Omaha the gas was. , struck in a strata of
sand about seventeen .feet in thickness ,
and it is not at all jVhliktdy that this is the
reservoirfromwhic.il \ gas gradually
po/.es out along the river bank , where there
is an outcrop of thoff/uiul / ! Mr. Severin was
very enthusiastic over , the great benefits
that would bo dorivml from the gag well
at South Omaha. ' 'Why , said ho , gas is
the best fuel in the j world for smelting
iron , it is not only a cheap fuel but it
makes the very best'quality of iron. De-
pondupon itj-if tUlsysi/3. / pi'pvqs to bo
whatI , am conlideuj tis , you will see a
greater boom-n manufacturing indus
tries in Omaha .than any one ever
draatncd of. "
Peter Her , who is well posted in gas as
well as distilled spirits , is greatly im
pressed with the hnporlancoof the "find"
and is urging a careful examination. The
stock yards company will put down
another well as soon as the present one
is completed , and thep will tinui make a
careful test of tlio gas by the method
suggested by M. .ovorin.

Arrival of ( hi * First Train From Kan
sas City Over the t'lilon Pni-lllr.
The afternoon train from thn wet , fa
miliarly known a * No.I , arrived in two
sections j-estordap , no connection being
made , as usual , with the Lincoln and MP-
atrice run at Valley. This was oaused
by the fact that the lirst train over the
IKMV Union Pacific short line to Kansas
( Try was coming and taking Us time in
so dointr. It pulloi ! iiitothodepol at GI. : > ,
with locomotive No. ; WI In the load and
Mike Decker at tin * throttle. There wen-
ton cars and Conductor John Kogi-rshiid

Syl. T. Smith's speeinl oar brought up

besides the gentleman named , were J.
A. Munrou , general freight agotil ; K.
Lane , resident engineer , and ,1. J. Murns ,
general storekeeper nil I'nion Pacilic
otllcinls. Hut few know the importauco
of this arrival , being ns it Is the Ural train
over the third direct connection between
Omaha nnd Kansas City. The coaches
had tint regular quota of passengers , hav
ing been brought up here to do service
during the G. A. It. axeiirsions to Gram !
Island. There was no Maj or Chase on
board lo make a welcoming speech , no
music , no celebration , and , in fact , noth
ing outside the ordinary arrival of a bo-
lati'd train with a special oar attached con
taining prominent railroad olliclals. The
new line is , by the way , u connecting link
luti-lv contracted between Marysvilfn and
Manhattan , on the Kansas Pncilii1 , which
link unites the Nebraska and Kansas di
vision of the U. P. The last sniko was
"se.nt homo" Saturday night and the lirst
tram left Kansas Cit.y at 3 a. m. yester
day. No attempt was made to run on
any regular time , as no schedule is ar-
nuiged as yet. In all probability this
will bo fixed up to-day , and regular
trains between the two municipal grants
of the Missouri valley -it onco.
AN AMSTHHI1ASI SCUIBH.
He IB Milking a Tour of tlio AVorltl to
Write n Hook.
Yesterday morning al tlio Union Pa
cilic depot , a DKK reporter had the pleas
ure of meeting a courteous gentleman of
the journalistic profession on the other
side of the water. It was J. A. DoHergh ,
the editor-in-chief of the Amsterdam
Courant. It is a daily paper with a cir
culation of 70,000. 15e ides this , it has
tlie distinction of beiny : the oldest paper
in the world , having been established in
1(51 ( ! ) , and some of the copies of that year
are still nrcsnrvod.
Mr. Do IJergh is going around the
world for the purpose of writing a book
of travels , and has thus far been eight
mouths on his journey. During that
time , he has visited , Franco , Algeria , Sura ,
Java , Cochin China , Japan and Amo.rien.
Ho leaves to-nitrht for St. Paul , thence
for New York and thence home. lie
will publish the work immediately upon
his arrival. It will be illustrated from
photographic vimvs which ho takes at
all noted places on his route.
Not in McGuckin's.
Ex-Alderman McGuckin is naturally
indignant that the report should bo cir
culated , and even published , that a row
occurred in his place of business Sunday
night , in which a man from the stock
yards was badly injured. There was no
disturbance whatever in that neighbor
hood. 1 he facts are that a cooper , em
ployed at Ilor's distillery , and a man
employed at the stock yards , became in
volved in a quarrel on Twelfth street ,
near Lonvcnworth. The former struck
the latter with a club , inflicting a dan
gerous cut. Both ran toward Tenth street
and the injured man Ktoppin < r on the
corner , the blood flowing freely from his
wound. Mr. McGuckin very kindly took
him in his placcof business and furnished
him witli washing materials. He then
directed him to Dr. Darrow , who dressed
his head. Subsequently , after the two
strangers had settled tin their dillicnlty
by the transfer of § 40 from assailant to
assaulted , they applied to Mr. McGuckin
'
for something' to drink. Ho refused to
give them anythimr , altlioiiich neither
was under the inlluotico of strong drink.

not rosDonsible for the inequality of the
surface of Park avenue. The hill re
ferred to by a complaint of one of the
residents of that thoroughfare in last Sat

by the excavation made by the horse rail
way company. Ho says the grading has
not been discontinued , nnd further that
his linn has until the lirst of November
in which to linlsh the same. There arc

and then before a sepond ballot could be
taken called on Day to slate Ins position
on the United States senatorial issue ,
which ho by openly and fearlessly declar

the following tor publication :
To the Kdltor : In your issue of the 29th
iiift. you confer upon mo an honor that all
men covet , that Is , the sweets that are to bo
leathered fiom matrimonial bliss. You state
that I am n married man. I wish It wore so ,
but my happiness Is still to come and the
prospects am very hi Idit for the futiiro. Al
though resldin& In tlio territory of Utah four
yearn or more I have not lost my respect for
the fair sex , and when our tournament takes

bright oven nresent. My colors , which have

Fit/gerald already shows the result of
his training and is in splendid form. Ho
feels confident of winning tlio coining
match , and one thing is certain , Iw will
bo in splendid condition when ho faces
Marx. Ho is a very gentlemanly young
man , and makes friends on bight. He
dresses stylishly , but not loud , and would
bo taken on the street as a young for *
olgner on an American visit. There is
not the slightest thing to criticize either
In his language or actions , and only his
fine phisiqiio indicates that ho is skilled
on the science of self defense , and no
common man can successfully stand bo-
fern him. From all present appearance
the hoxinc match of the eighth will bo a
rare treat for those who like athletic
sports.
