which was secured mildly and without a

ItAlI.UOAl ) LAND1 * .
Sinro the succession of Mr. Amos
Cummings as commissioner of the land
department of the Union Pacilie tlio pol
icy of that department has Undergone an
entire change. Under the old regime ,
and especially towards the last , much of
the land was sold at ligures
ridiculously below its value. Since Mr.
Ctmimincs btouped in ho has stopped al
most altogether thu sale of thu lands ,
which are now for tlio most part in Utah
and Wyoming. Ho has examiners at
work who are ascertaining just how
much land is left , where it Is located ,
what is its character , and how much it is
worth , in other words , he is making a
sort of inventory of stock qn hand , pre
paratory to a raise in prices. In this
way ho hopes to ctl'cct a great saving to
the Union Pacific road. Already apull-
cations for several thousand acres have
bean made by would-be purchasers , who
will bo obliged to wait , however , until
the sale is reopened.

Ycstorilaymorning at ! ) o'clock a very
serious accident happened on the Union
1'acilie road one and a quarter miles west
of North liond. Freight train No. 2'i , com
ing cast , collided with freight iSo. 17
going west , when going at a rate
of about thirl.v-livo miles per hour. Both
engines were badly destroyed , especially
that of train 22 , which had been borrowed
from tlio Missouri Pieilic , and was not
equipped with air brnkes. The fireman
of the latter , Frank K. Failis , w.\s injured ,
though it is not yet known that ho will
die. The train from the west had a num
ber of cars lillea with cattle , tivo of
which were wrecked and a number of the
cattle killed. The conductor of No. 23
was a man named Poohn , and of No. 17
P. M. Lo.v. The wreck obstructed the
trackt and at an early hour yesterday
morning a wrecking train was sent to the
scene , under the direction of Mir. Koun ? .
The cause of the accident was the fail
ure of train No. 17 to wait at North Bend.
Doth trains were running without orders
and on schedule rights. Their meeting
place was Fremont , but No. 23 was behind
time. No. 17 waited for it the live min
utes , at Fremont , required by the rules ,
and then moved on to North iJcnd. No.
22 was at Schuyler and had plenty of
time to roach North Bend , and with that
intent , pulled out for that place. But 17 ,
instead of waiting tivo minutes at Nortli
Bend , as it had at Fremont , passed the
station and met 22 as mentioned , a short
distance west of North Bend. No. 2 ,
passenger from the west , transfercd pas
sengers and bagsrago and left thn wreck
at 10:40 : for Omaha , and reached hero at
a short time after 1 o'clock. The Grand
Island train came in at the same timo.

Ex-Senator Paddock and ox-Congress

They talked us pleasantly as old associ

" 1 don't go much on superstition , "
said an old railroad engineer to a re
porter the other night , as the two wen
waiting the arrival of the overland from
the west'but J never shall forgnt one
little thing that happened to me liftccn
years ago , when I was just starting out
on my career as an engineer. The mem
ory of that circumstance will stick by inu
as long as 1 live. It was In the spring ol
182 } , if I renumber rightly. I was mak
ing the through run from Chicago to St.
Louis on the Chicago As Alton. One night
1 pulled out of Chicago feeling desper
ately glum and blue. What was the
matter I didn't know. All 1 could realize
AVitH that I tclt desperate and ready for
anything. 1 happened to have a Mask of
whisky in my locker , and the notion
sel/cd me that I must drink
some of the stuff. Well , J
diil it. One drink led to another and before -
fore 1 knew it I was feeling hilarious and
happy. The fireman noticed my condi
tion and afraid that I might commit some
fatal blunder , tried to take the control of
the engine out of my hands. I resisted
him and told htm that he'd better mind
his own business. He saw that 1 might
become ugly , and wisely determined to
let mo alone. Everything went well un
til early In the morning , an hour before
daybreak wo reached Jerseyville. Then
I began to feel a strange sensation of op.
prcssion. What it meant I could not
make out , but I thought that it foreboded
certain evil to me or to the train in my
charge. I put on steam and 1)11110(1 ( put
of Jerseyvillo a minute or two behind
time. The engine had hardly got under
full headway when all at once looking
along the track which was lighted
up for the distance of half a mile by the
headlight , 1 saw a dark object across the
track a quarter mile ahead of mo. What
it was I couldn't make out. As rapidly
as I could I shut off steam and whistled
down brakes. Again I looked at the ob-
ieet. There it was growing larger and
larger as the train approached it. To
my horror i could see that it was a largo
black collin ; 1 realized that I was intox
icated ami knew that there was a possi
bility that my diseased imagination had
led me to make a mistake. I tried to
feteady myself , and looked intently at the
object ahead of mo. No , there could bo
no mistake. There the collin was ,
placet ! directly across the track. The
train began to slow up. and before wo
reached the spot , was at at standstill
I ordered my lireman to get out and take
tlio horrible thing off the track.
He alighted from the cab , buOitter a mo
ment's search declared that ho could sec
nothing. The conductor ran up , looked
alone the track and wanted to know why
I had slowed up. By this time my thor
ough fright had sobered me up.and after
satisfying myself that there really was no
collin across the track , I made the best
explanation I could and wo started off.
We reached St. Louis all right , safe anil
sound. Notwithstanding the fact that I
knew I had been made the victim of an
imagination diseased by liquor , I could
not help feeling all that day that some
thing was going to happen. And 1 was
right. That night before I pulled out
with the evening express for Chicago ,
word was received in St. Louis that a
horrible accident had happened
to the day express from the north
in the shape of a collision with
a wild freight. Both trains were com
pletely wrecked , and four lives were lost.
Among the dead was my brother the
conductor of the express. Boy , I tell
you 1 felt mighty strange when I learned
where the accident had happened. It
was just this side of Jerseyville , on the
exact siot where I had seen the collin'in
the early morning of that day. "
A movement is on foot to start a first-
class gymnasium in this city. The pros
pects for athletic sports were never so
bright in any direction as they are to-day.
The feeling is strong that a good , thor
oughly equipped gymnasium in the city
would prove a paying venture. Al
ready about forty or fifty
young men have signified their willing
ness to go into the scheme , and it is
thought that a membership of fully scv-
cnty-livo can easily bo beoured. The
membership fee will probably ho fixed at
? 3 , with monthly dues of $3 or fa. Dun
can McDonald , the noted boxer , who has
been for some weeks in the city , is spoken
of as thu trainer. He has volunteered
his services at a reasonable figure and
will probably bo the man chosen. Others ,
however , are in favor of securing Jack
llanloy , and it is just possible tliat ho
may bo bolocted. The first meeting to
discuss tlio matter will bo held to-morrow
evening at the store ot Collins , Gordon &
Kay.
"In many respects. " said a chronic
grumbler , yesterday , "Omaha is begin
ning to develop metropolitan activity
and omcrpriso and public spirit among
its citi/.ons. But it is none too early.
Her people ought to have aroused from
their bleep years ago , and if they
had , Omaha would have been greatly in
advance of what it is to-day. AVe have
hlill , however , bomo mossbacks who care
more for a dollar than Kansas City does
for a hundred. They are opposed to
every move of improvement , and are
only coerced into submission by a
majority voice. Some of those are
clinging on to tlio rentals of the old
rooKcries on the leading thoroughfares ,
satisfied because they receive in a year a
greater revenue from the old rattle trans
than they ever cost. One of those told
mo the other day that unless he got dou
ble the rental ho is now being paid by the
occupants of u rat-hole of his , which
turns out $10,000 every year , ho would
not think of erecting another to suimlnnl
it. Ten thousand dollars ho considered
an excellent income from the btruetnro
mentioned , And bo It was , especially In
view of the fact that the first cost was'less
than that sum , and that was many years
ago. "
"There are more first class buildings
now in course of erection in Omaha , than
was over known in" any preceding sea
son , " remarked a builder to a Br.i : re
porter yesterday. "If the agreeable
weather we are now oxporioncln ; * con
tinue till the end of this month , nearly
all of these structures will have been put
under roof , I know there is an adage
that a 'green Christmas makes a full
graveyard , ' but 1 have not much respect
as a rule for adages. For that reason if
the season should bo still more pio-
longed , say to Christmas , it would result
greatly to the advantage of the building
interests of the city , and at the name
time put many a laborer and mechanic
in a morn satisfactory condition to spend
the months of winter. Omaha may well
bo proud of Ihu buildings which the novt
.season , it not the muscat shall sco com
pleted. "

"Some men's tastes run In queer di
rections , " said Mrs. Louis lu Bois to a
rcportcrycstcrday. "My husband has de
serted mo and his little child in Kansas
Clty7and runaway to Omaha to live with
a Dutch woman , who is five years older
than himself , is ugly and baldhcadcd.
But 1 propose to hunt him down and
make him settle with mo.1'
Mrs. Uu Bois Is a rather good-looking
woman , about twenty-six years of age.
She fays that her husbandwho is a brick
layer by trade , came to Omaha about
four months ago to look for woi'k. lie
remained here two months and. then re
turned to Kansas Uitv , making hi.s wife a
brief visit. Ho came back to Omaha
then , and has been hero ever
since. Mrs. Du Bois supposed that
everythinn was .4 all right until
Monday morning when she happened
to find a letfer , written to Du Bois by his
German paramour and carelessly
dropped by him while ho was in Kansas
City. She had it translated , and then
her husband's perlidy was revealed.
Leaving her little four-year-old child In
the hands of a friend. Mr * . Du Bois came
at once to Omaha to look up her erring
spouse. So far she has not been success
ful , though she did manage to find the
house at which DuBois and his mistress
had been living up to a few months ago.
The lady who keeps the house says that
for weeks thov lived together as man and
wife.
"I don't think that I will find my hus
band , " said Mrs. Du Bois , in concluding
her story. "I think lie has loft town with
Unit horrid woman. Yes. my ImsbaiUl is
a Frenchman and came from French'no
bility. What possessed him to act tills
way I am sure 1 don't ' know. "
IjOCAti IWV.CONICS.
Some Interviews Gathered on tlio
Streets.
George Kay. " 1 think that a league
base ball club in Omaha will pay. It
may not , perhaps , for the lirst season ,
but if it can bo put on a firm footing , it
s bound to succeed. If the stockholders
will stand it to loose sjt.000 or $2,000 the
first season , wo will give thorn lirst class
ball ne.xt season , mm guarantee them a
paying thing in the future. For all I can
see now , the club will bo enthusiastically
supported ne.xt .year. I never saw &o
much local interest in baseball as there is
at present. "
GWilliam Nagl , M. D. "It is a curious
thing that while tlio climate of Omaha is
a healthy and beneficial one on the whole ,
it has a decided tendency to aggravate
nervous people. It ha" a tendency to
cause insanity , as 1 have frequently no
ticed in the case of people coming hero
from the east. I think physicians whoso
'
practice and experience 'are more ex
tended than mv own will bear mo out in
whut t say. 1 "presume the fact that the
altitude here is much greater than in the
cast has something to do with this. "
Clerk Ilulett , Millard Hotel "The
hotel business is booming never belter.
I know that there has never been a time
when this hotel , at least , was so crowded
as it is at present. "
John S. Prince "I am figuring on hav
ing a six-day bicycle race here in a few
weeks , to be held in the exposition build
ing ; something similar to the one now
being hold Minneapolis , you know ; . I
would have all the big racers in the
country on the entry list such as Eck ,
Morgan. Schoek , Woodsido. etc. I be
lieve such an event coulu bo made to
draw good crowds. "
Harry Merriam "Tho next grand
lodge of the Knights of Pythias of Ne
braska will bo held in this city in about
eleven months. It will be attended by
the grandest array of Knights
ever brought together in rfo-
braska. The services will last
four days during whieh there will be
prij drijls and other entertainments for
which prizes will bo ollered. These pri/.cs
will be large enough to attract to this city
the leading lodges and uniformed de
grees of the cast. "
N. A. Kiilin "Steps are now l > eing
taken to improve Western Dodge street
and this could be done b7 grading it ,
commencing it at Twentietlu street and
extending it as far west as Twenty-fifth
street. This will bo a desired improve
ment and all the citi/.ens in that locality
are in favor of the movement. "
DOXY'S DAMAGES.
He Will Ho Allowed to Collect
Them.
Yesterday afternoon Judge Dundy of
the United.States court , overruled the mo
tion for a new trial in the case of Doty
vs. the Franciscan Sisters of St. Joseph's
hospital.
It may be remembered that Doty a year
or so ago commenced in tins court a suit
for $10,000 damages against the sis
ters of St. Joseph's hospital , claim
ing that while m the earn of
of that institution , one of his attendants
had accidentally thrown some carbolic
neid in his eye and destroyed it. Upon
trial a few months ate , the jury ren
dered a verdict for plaintiff , giving him
about $2,000 damajies. The jnattor was
brought ui > again at this term of court t > y
a motion for a now trial made by defend
ant's attorneys.
This motion , as already stated , was
overruled by the judge. In reviewing
the case Judge Diimly spoke quite at
length. He concluded nv saying that he
saw no reason why a private institution
like St. Joseph's ho.tpltul which
requires pay for the treatment of
patients , should bo exempt from danger
for injuries caused by the carelonoss of
its attendants. He said that fie far as he
hail been able to discover there were but
two similar eases on rccori } . . One of
them had been decided in Massachusetts ,
the other in Ithodo Island , and the de
cision In the latter sustained his view of
the case ,

Sam Jones held another meeting yester
day morning in the First Prcyiyturian
church which was attended more liberally
than that of Monday the grealcivnilmbor of
the worshippers being ladies. In cldsing
his remarks ho made an earnest plea for
common scnso in the prosecution of their
spiritual affairs , whieh was something
rarely found m the conduct of Mich mat
ters. Ho could go into a banking iiutitu-
tion , a mercantile establishment or a real
estate office , and if ho worn to run cither
of them as pconlo looked after their
church affairs and spiritual advancement ,
he would bankrupt it. Every business
man worked day and night , studied ,
read up in his biisinc.-s , and struggled to
make it a success , but when it came to
church matters , they were left to be run
by dome unseen power , just like , a iluin-
nn ongino. "Now , God ya3 tio't a dum
my engine , "
Ho then dcsci ibcd the existence of cer
tain conditions necessary to a cyclone ,
Which he had once ox'perluneed. If they
wanted a religious cyclone in Omaha
thuy should have the conditions , naye
them meet , and the result would by a
moral cyclone which would bwcfcp sin
cult of Omaha. Oio : of these conditions
was prayer. Tho.V thould pray , commit
their allairs In God and then work with

Contrary to expectation , the Denver
councilman didnt | > t leave yesterday morn-
ingjas they had intended. They all slept
very late after thoifatiguing festivities of
yesterday and last evening , and wisely
concluded to take the rest which they all
seemed to need. Air. Packard , one of
the council , who had gone to Leaven-
worth in the interest of the Denver base
ball club , and who had promised to meet
his associates here , failed to arrive , and
as a consequence , the remainder of the
trip will have to ho made without him.
It Is a notable fact that in Denver , the
a Hairs of the city are transacted by two
houses , an upper and lower one , the
former being styled supervisors , the latter
eouncilmen. Of the supervisors , them
are live and of councllmeii nine , the for
mer o\ereising discretionary power over
the acts of the latter. In the visitors there
is but one supervisor. Shortly before tlio
arrival ot tlio guests it had been an
nounced that the higher house made
some dilllcnlty in agreeing to the pay
ment of the bill incurred by the enter
tainment of the Omaha aldermen while
in Denver. This Mr. Smith and his as
sociates denied , claiming , on the con
trary , that the affair was audited and
paid immediately. Since their arrival in
tills city , the Donvcritcs have been in the
hands of a committee of the council , and
little lias been left undone to see Omaha
and enjoy themselves as well as It is pos
sible for them to do. They loft last
evening at fl o'clock for Chicago , in their
special car over the Chicago , Hook Island

The Hustings Mayor Utups Down From
1'rcstlfjo and Power.
A. L. Fieldman , of Hastings , Neb. , was
In town yesterday morning awaiting the
arrival of his wife from herold home in
Now York , llo was mot by a reporter of
the Bui : to whom he stated Jthat Samuel
Alexander , mayor of Hastings , had re
signed Monday night and that Charier
Cameron chairman of the council had been
elected as his successor. Ho will fill the
unoxpircd term to April , 1888. The causes
which led to Air. Alexander's resignation
was , it was claimed , a feeling of unpopu
larity which has been aroused against
him by a number of official acts , which
had acted , injuriously to the city. One of
these was his light with the railroad
company to compel them to build a cross
ing through their own property , which
was unsuccessful ; The ne.xt was his
furthering of an ordinance compelling
saloons to close at 11 o'clock , without
specifying either day or night , and
whether by according to standard or rail
road time. As a consequence , one of the
saloon keepers armsled under it was dis
charged. It is further claimed that his
handling of the city's water bonds , re
sulted in a loss of JflO.OOO. Besides , ho
was a prohibitionist , and all these facts
combined to make him unpopular and
tired of thoj business. His successor ,
Cameron , is a clothier of the place.

Down and Out ,
Captain Ted Grebe , of No. 3 Hose
company , is no longerconnectcd witli the
fire department. He severed his connec
tion yesterday , after a service of many
years. The occasion of the retirement
was a passage of words between himselt
and Chief Gailigun Monday afternoon ,
at the exhibition of the fire department
for the entertainment of the Denver vis
itors. The companies were called by a
private alarm to the corner of
Thirteenth and Dodge streets. The
call was promptly answered , Grebe
claiming that his company rc'ichcd the
scene and got water in10 seconds after
the alarm had been sounded , lie claims
further that No. ! J did not get water for
some seconds later , and this fact caused
Grebe to shout with exultation. The
chief remonstrated with him for this on
the ground that rollcctions from one
member upon another would dcstry the
ilopnitmcnt , Words passed between them
and the chief assigned Grebe to the
ranks. George Wlndiutim was appointed
captain in his stead , but Mr. Grebe re
fused towork and resigned.

SPECIAL REDUCTION I

to the sale of heavy overcoats have not been quite realized. In antici
pation of a cold fall and early winter , we laid in the most extensive line
of overcoats ever offered to the people of Omaha. These overcoats
must be sold. It is better for us to sell them at a sacrifice than to carry
this immense stock , so we have marked down the prices on the same as
follows :
100 Mens' heavy Grey Beaver Overcoats , cassimere lined ,
reduced from , $6 to $3,60 ,
100 Mens' heavy blue Chinchilla Beaver Overcoats , reduced
from $9 to $5,50.
