The Mlllnrrt
Walter Durham , who was shot by Mitt-
linn , the Millard saloon keeper , expired
ycstuday afternoon. His family was
with liim : il tliotitiiu and all that possibly
could ho donn was done to save life.
\v tiM-day morning , as it w.ni'vIdi-Ml dis
solution was rapidly appioauhlng , word
was soul to Mr. John A. Tomplolon , of
this city , that Durham wished to make a
will Accordingly Olms. .1. Greene drew
up a document according to the dying
man's wishes and it was forwarded to
htm but ovltlontlv ho had breathed his
last before the loUanicnt arrived.
When Ilia news of his death readied
this oily Coroner Drcxcl made pronara-
tions to go down to Milliard to hold
an inquest. District Attorney Kstullo
alho deeidcd to go and accordingly
the evening train west , which did
not leave hero yesterday until after 0
o'clock , carried the above named and
Attorney I'arko Godwin representing the
defendant , Mr. Tumpleton Durham's
cmployor , unit Mr. Miller , a particular
friend. The coroner did not return last
night owing to the non-running of trains ,
and it is not known whether an inquest
was held or not , or whether a jury was
called , the body only viewed and an ad
journment taken to some oilier time and
place. Unfortunately tlio moans of
communicating witli Millard orrrvpiilion
tire such thill the Uix's correspondent on
the ground bailed to get his report here.
Learning that Ihero was a great deal of
dissatisfaction among tlioso who know
Durham with the reports of the tragedy
altcady given , and especially of the had
ciiaraoti'i1 given the deceased by Mitt-
man , a reporter of the lir.tt sought in
formation on these points as follows :
Tin ; TIILI : sroitr.
A representative < f the lini : met a sen-
ticnian v Uirdav who saw llio entire dif-
iiculty nt Millard which led to the death
of Wiiltcr Durham , and ho pronounces
every account bo far published of the af
fray as entirely incorrect , especially that
of Mltlman , * 'Thoro is not one woul of
truth in wliatllioprisonorsays"remarkcd
the genlleman. "I am an entirely disin
terested party , and as I witnessed the en
tire allruy I tliiuk lam competent to give
an unbiasiod account of how the unfortun
. ' ate nfl'iiir occurred. Durham.Cole , a man
named linttortield and some others who
were umplo\ed byOJohn A. Temple-
ton & Co. , who are building bridges for
dishing As Mallory , came to Millard to
take the train for Papillion. They were
late for the train , and while waiting for
the next a glass of beer was proposed.
The party entered Mittman's saloon.
- The drinks were called and produced.
Cole remarked , "That beer's Hat. Give
us some bettor. " Mittman grew furious
at once , ami applying the vilest epi
thets to Cole , oiuorcd him out of his
hoiiMi. His commands not being obeyed ,
, , the saloonkeeper came from behind the
- bar with u drawn revolver and started
for Colo. Durham , who was engaged in
conversation near by , quickly stepped in
front of Cole and used conciliatory words.
r. AliUmim immediately lired striking
'Durham ' In the neck , wifirtho. result as
" stated in previous accounts. Durham had
* no weapon or anything elsb in his hand ,
> neither did lie strike or attempt to strike
Mittman until the shot was
lircdi As soon as the report
of the revolver somulod Cole
caught Durham in his arms
and supported him. Then Durham
struck Mittman twice in the face and
mined a third blow , but it lacked effect
from the weakness of Durham. At this
tinm Mittman attempted to shoot Butter-
Held , but was prevented by some of the
bystanders. Then Mrs. Mittman came
out from ti rear apartment and seizing a
bottle , struck Coin on the forehead , nitik-
my. an ugly wound. She attempted to
ctriko him and others of the party ,
but was prevented from doing so.
The romoyal of Durham and the arrest
of Mittman followed as first roportod.
Again I repeat all other reports fhan this
arc decidedly incorrect , and Mittman's
Btory especially is a tisiuo of lies. Dur
ham gave him no cause for the assault
and had he not stepped in front of Cole
the latter would have been the dead body
to-day , "
nUIIUAM'S CIIAUACTKU.
Mr. John A. Tumpleton , who is con
nected with Cuhhing & Military , and in
' whoso immediate employ Durham was
seen by a reporter of the UKH yesterday ,
and questioned as to the character of the
deceased. " 1 consider Mr. Durham , "
said Mr. Tompleton , "a man of line
character. If ho worn not ho would
never liuvo occupied the position ho did
under mo. Ho hud charge of my bridge
construction and was a thorough work
man in every particular. I
luivo known him about two
years , and ho came to mo with the
highest recommendations. I liavo always
found him quiet , industrious and sobor.
Ho would ttiko a glass of beer occasion
ally , but 1 never saw him under the m-
lluenco of liquor , -would trust him
with anything 1 wished done , and the
fact that ho Had full cliargo of so many
ft mien nnd suoh important work shows
that he must have been a man of some
worth. Uno tiling 1 admired about him
was his love of homo and fam
ily. It was for this reason
that he brought his wifu and children to
i'aplllitw to live , so that they would bo
near his work. Ho was on his way to
viMt them , poor fellow , when ho met his
untimely fate. Another thiugthat shows
ho could not very well bo u drunkard and
n broiler is the fact that ho was woith
about $7,000 when ho died. "
"Did he make will " Mr.
a ? . Tomploton.
"Well , ix will was made for
him. or I better give the facts ;
4 "yesterday ho sent mo word that he
waited to dispose of his property for his
wife and children's bonetit , 1 imino-
uintely had Mr. Charles J. Greene draw
up the proper document nnd sent u to
him. I am afraid it did not reach him in
timo. 1 will soon know for 1 am going
down there this afternoon. "
"What do you think of the statement
of Mittman that Durham owed Jiim foi
drinks ? "
"Of course I now nothing of tins posi.
lively , but 1 will say 1 don't ' believe it. In
the hrst place it was not Durham's character
actor to ewe anybody , and in the next
place 1 paid him myself $100 the day bo'
lore ho was shot.
Mr. Miller , u companion of the do
coiibod who was present dur
> ng the foregoing talk. Bah
with tears in his oyess ' 'I havi
never worked with a bettor man nnd ]
have worked with many. The boys wil
mourn for him like a brtoher. Yes , I can
corroborate every word Mr. Tumpletoi
has told you. "
Hero the interview ended , as the gen
ttenmn named above luid to catch tin
oxoning train for Millard to attend UK

Hrooncl Warders Ask for
Kditcntloiml Advantnttcs.
About tlilrty citizens of the Second
ward met at the Cosmopolitan hotel on
Thirteenth street lasl night for the adver
tised purpose of holding at. indignation
meeting. Their grievance lay in the
fact that a largo number of children who
live in the vicinity of the Castcllar street
school are compelled to go a long dis
tance to attend other schools as U.ero arc
no classes taught in the Caltellar school
above the fotuth grade. The meeting
was called to order at 8 o'clock and Mr.
\V. S. Johnson chosen chairman , with
Jolm P. Schminko as Mjorotary , nnd J.
M. Arnotit , J. Atuirlt , P. Chambers , Jo-
oph Kavtin nnd Mr. Pray as vice presi
dents.
Mr. Arnnut was called upon to state
the object of the meeting. Ho made it
brielly that children \\lio were not able to
walk any distance were compelled to go
to the Leavenwortli and Pacific schools
nnd oven to the high school because -
cause the grades taught in the
Castellar school were not high enough
for the pupil * .
Mr. 1. S. Hascall stated the trouble nt
gieater length. Ho said Hint Iho board
had been informed of the state of titVairs
over a year ngo and asked to remedy it.
They had not done so and It was proper
that the citlxen.s of the .south side should
demand their rights. They had gone
down into their pockets , no said , nnd
built a school house at a cost of $30,000
that would do for a high school for su
burban towns Hko Lincoln , Hastings and
Council IMull's , and tlioy objected to hav
ing children fourteen , years of ago who
live within a block of the school to bo
compelled to walk two miles through
wastes of snow , Holds of mud and dan
gerous valleys through which run the all
destroying railroads. Ho thought this
state of all airs could and should bo rem
edied.
Mr. Andrecn said that the Second
warders spent most of their money for
beer or taxes to swell the school fniitl and
ho thought they bhould bo given betler
accommodations.
Superintendent James , who was wrcs-
cnt , was called unon to ON plain why the
school boaid did not place another grade
in the Castollar schools In a very clear
nnd concise manner he made a statement
that took most of the "indignation" fea
tures out of the meeting. Ho stated that
it was the policy of the" school board to
furnish teachers for any schools wherever
and whenever they were needed. Ho
had made an examination of the com
plaints and could find but two children
who had to cross the railroad track in
order to lind their grade in the schools.
The board had worked hard for the past
four years to get Ihegrades of Iho schools
established to the best advantage for the
pupils , and were still doing all In their
power to that end. At present the eighth
grade is taught at the High , Farnam ,
Noith and Pacific schools ; the seventh
grade in the same schools and albo in
Lake and Lcavonworth ; the sixth in the
sumo and also in Hartman , and the litlli
in all except the Castollar. llo had niaJo
an investigation and had found that of
all Iho btndcnts in tlio eighth grade
of the school not one could
attend the Castcllar school with advan
tage. Of tlio fifth , sixth and seventh
grades combined there were only twenty-
three pupils who could more conven
iently attend the Castclkir school than
any other. Tim Pacilic school furnished
accommodations for all of the students
south of the track who were qualilicd to
bo in the seventh or eighth grade. Dur
ing tlio first two weeks of tlio term the
pupils of the higher grades were kept at
the Castollar school for the purpose of
f9rmiug a class , but there was not a snili-
pient number ° t pupilsto jubtifytho add
ing of another grade and the employ
ment of an extrateacher. . Ho 'wo'nld
guarantee that the school board would
pro\ido a teacher if the residents would
lind tlio necessary number of pupils to
form an additional grade. Some further
talk was indulged in by other residents
of the vicinity and Mr. Blackburn , of
school board , all favorable to the plan ,
and , on motion of Mr. Arnout , it was de
cided to bo tlio bcnso of the meeting that
a lifth.sixth nnd seventh grade DO added
to the Castollar school. Tlio meeting
then adjourned.

They nro Asked , to Join the Interna
tional Amalgamated. Society.
It is the intention of several carpenters
now in this city to form a branch of what
is known as the Amalgamaled society of
carpenters and joiners. This is an asso
ciation wiiieh was organized in 1800 , and
Hinco that time has had a prosperous
and useful existence in many parts of
the country. It is at present strongest in
the British Isle , and is rapidly extending
throughout the United States , Canada ,
Australia and Now Zealand. Candi
dates for admission must be of bound
health , have worked at the trade live
years and bo not less than twenty nor
more than forty years of ago.
Apprentices in the last year of
their engagement are eligible ,
provided they comply with all
the necessary conditions of admis
sion. Kaeli branch appoints a surgeon
for the purpose of giving certificates as
to tlio state of the candidate's health. A
graduated scale of entrance fees ranging
trcm ? 3.0a for a man of twenty-livo years
of ag < > , to $12.25 for a man of forty-live
years is arranged. As a consequence of
this there is a number of bonolits ,
amongst which are the receiving of tools
to the amotiot of $110 when the Pamo are
lost by lire or walor or thoft. They are
also entitled to various sums of money
per week when thrown out of work because -
cause of depression of business ; to bene
fits when sick , or after having sullercd
injuries , and certain amounts are deliv
ered in the event of death of members to
surviving relatives. In 1883 there wore
! 5'J7 ' branches wilh 32,830 , members , with
$3'J1OUO ' on hand. Since the establish
ment of the society to 1880 the total
amount of money expended was
$3,102,600 ,
Any member of this association who
may bo in town , or any carpenter or
joiner who may fool disposed to join such
an order , is respectfully requested to ad

A Year's Continuous Htoulliifj Ilrokcn
Up by OlUoor Dun Green.
For over a year past railroad employes ,
particularly freight conductors ami
brakonion , have been losing valises con
taining their ' 'Sunday best , " pocketbooks -
books , valuable papers , etc. . etc , It it
their custom to go down to the depot tt
take their trainsdressed , out in their best ,
when a change is made for the hard
working attire that especially belongs to
this class of workers. These valises in
the train cabooses wore the receptacles foi
the "good and now" which were chnngeil
for the "old and medicore. " Itwasnol
only mortifying but costly for the men
when they reached the end of their run tc
lind the valises gone as well as over
coats , pockctbooks loft in their homo on
wheels , and other valuables. Many and
many a pious conductor or brakemnn ar
rivud in Grand Island , Lincoln , or othoi
ends of divisions only to find ho could
not go to church for want of proper ap
pare ! and many more wore there whc
could not make their usual call , on theii
best girls for similar reasons. They had
to remain iu their cabooses in
the iiuost weather nnd gaze
out of the calico - curtained
windows at some country follow lillinp
their usual places where , It is said , Cupid
ha-i battle ground. This thing nntnralh
became monotonous nnd worse tlmn ni
it began to cat Up Iho bovs' small wncc1
in replncnm the lost articles. Onoyounf )
man had three suits of underclothing
stolen in ono month , nnd ot course lit
was a bankrupt and had lo obtain rclici
by getting a semi-monthly pay advance ,
Kcports were coming in to Ollieci
Dull' Green , of the Union 1'acllic depot ,
daily comnlaining of these thefts. He
was receiving more letters from difl'orenl
parts of tlio Union Pacific road than n
congressman during his first term. Ho
commenced operations nt once workinu
night nnd day , but the comnlainls grew
moro numerous and the plot deepened ,
Although DulV's dctocti\e eye Is a good
ouo ho could not for the Hfe of him un
ravel the mystery. Finally n short time
ngo a man named C. W. Phillips who
had been running on the road us a freight
brnkcman , was transferred to the lower
yards ns a switchman , nnd , strange to
bay , just about that.timo there was
a cessation of hostilities in the stealing
line. Putting then ) two tilings togetiier
Dun"commenced to watch Philliwsnry
closely , till no evidence of a tangible
nature turned up. About two weeks ago ,
however , a boy named Klmer Cots nnd a
companion , who were employed at , the
Co//ens , cnmo to Olhcer Green'au | | the
first named handed him a Docket book ,
which the boy said ho had fpund on the
bottoms. An owner was wanted , and a.s
the book contained railroad papers , the
boys thought a railroad ojllcor was tlio
best custodian of the book Olllcor CJreeti
examined the content * , nnd was very
much pleased to see several cards , letters ,
etc. . with the name C. W. Phillips in
scribed upon them , besides several belonging -
longing to other railroad men. The
ollieer then know Ho had a clue , and com
menced to get up his chain ol evidence ,
to be sure ho wns fastening the crime on
the proper party. This took time , as
most of thoho interested were out on the
road , and could not bo interviewed at
the same time. Yesterday Dull' was sure
ho had his evidence up to white heat , nnd
quietly going up to Hnnncry's hotel on
i'tMith street , wlioro Phillips ooarded , ho
asked the latter if ho had lost a pocket
book , but a denial came at onco.
"But there are papers in it , " said
Green , "with your name on thorn. "
"Well , 1 guess there are moro Phil-
lipses'in the world than 1. "
"True , " was tlio replv ; "but there is
money in il also. " ( This wtis a while lie
for Dull' . )
"Come to think. " said Phillips , " 1 did
IOMJ ono , " and then ho described the
identical pocketboolc , without the money ,
of course. Kight here Phillips was in the
lolls , and it was not long before ho made
a full confession of his thieving opera
tions for a year past. Pawn tickets were
delivered , statements made showing
wlioro goods had been sold and valises
disposed in this city , in Council Bluil's ,
Lincoln , Grand Island in fact Phillips
had been distributing valises and clothes
all over Nebraska and part of Iowa. An
other important find was over a hundred
keys , Or as Duff puts it , a
quart ot them. They were of
all bi/.cs , .shapes and previous condition
of servitude from the squatty brake-
man's key to the nmntenr skelelon made
oul of a bullon hook. These wore used bv
Phillips for opening cars. Itis estimated
that the railroad men have lost over $500
worth of property thiough Phillips , and
naturally Dull'Green was quite a here
among them when ho made the arrest yes
terday afternoon. Phillips will bo exam
ined to-day , but because of Iho small
amounts oi property ho took at different
times , and tlio difficulty to find tlio arti
cles , unfortunately , it may happen that he
will not get the punishment he deserves.
It was a good thing to have his tliclts
discovered , for in all likelihood ho would
sooner or later commence operations on
the company's properly ns well as on that
of other persons if he has not already done
so. OlUeor Green deserves great credit
for liis persistent and skillful detective
work , for ho certainly has relieved tlio
community of a d.ingeious man.

Milton Nobles' company of standard
favorites appeared last night in the well
known drama of ' 'Love and Law. " The
play is familiar to thcalor goers hoic ,
having been given hero last season , and
it has qualities that time cannot wear out.
It is conceded to bo ouo of the best
dramas played , powerful in plot , plenti
fully interspersed with most effective
tableaux' , and possessing a steady under
current of comcuy. Milton Nobles was
as irresistible as over m liis faithful de
lineation of Iris i shrewdness in Iho part
of the Lawyer O'llalf. Dollio Nobles is
well known to bo an actress of unusual
power , intensely emotional withoul fall
ing for a moment into the melodramatic ,
in fact the fascination of her acting lies
in its naturalness. Her general attractive
ness is augmented by a sweet contralto
voice. Her songs were loudly encored.
The author must have had ono of Dick
ens' realistic- sketches in his mind when
ho pictured tlio Contidon. It is like a page
from Oliver Twist and the cocknov thief ,
"
played so inimitably by John "Heady ,
is moulded after ono of Dickens' models.
The lines were somewhat puzzling to
any ono not familiar with the thieving
vernacular anil the eccentricity of the
character seemed almost overdrawn at
times , yet it was faithful to the school it
imitated.
The iilay is so well acted throughout ,
that every member deserves mention.
Instead of relying on a single individual
to carry the piece through as is so often
the case , the whole was an ensemble of
well-bchooled actors , each bringing his
part Into prominence by reason of supe
rior training and conscientious study.
