A Gage county man was in Lincoln a few hours yesterday in search of his daughter , who was described as a brigli girl of eighteen years of ago , who had comu to Lincoln some time since for honest employ inent , but of whom word had roachct homo this wcok that she was going to the bad , and either had or was about to become come an Inmate of some of thu numerous dons of ill-fame with which Lincoln is in festocl. It took but very few inquiries foi tlio father to ascertain that thu girl luu loft in bad company two days ngn for Crcston , and thither ho went in pur-mi on the afternoon train. T11K CASK AOAINST COONS that was set for a preliminary hearing ii county court yesterday was continued bj mutual consent of counsel on both sidua until 1) ) o'clocK Saturday morning. Thu inlurest in this case continues to absorb n good dual of attention , and thu dufunsu are evidently at work upon public opinion to show that there i.s a job of persecution in llio case , and tlio talk of the amount of crookedness ranges from throe or four to thirty of forty forged orders or time checks. It has been hinted that attempts have been made at com promise that were not accepted on the part of thu company. MINOIt MENTION' . In the district court yesterday the case of the slate against Stewart , ot Stewart Chute Lumber company , for forgery , was . continued , the state closing its part early in the morning hour and the dofensn ojcupying tlio time until the noon recess in giving their side of the caso. Jn the afternoon arguments by counsel were being madu and thu case was being most ulluutunlly long drawn out. This , it might be slated , i.s only one of a number of cases against the imrtic.s at the bar , and it is not at all probable that they will all receive a hearing at the present term of thu court. A hippodrome pugilistic encounter at Tomplu hall is advertised for Saturday evening next at which time Jack llanloy will meet Jnuk Dnscoll , and numerous aspirants who want to bo tough will assist in completing the programme with exhibitions in boxing. It would appear from thu announcement that Hanluy is biiuk in the ring again , and thuru nro un doubtedly enough people who think miuh eiiteitainments are manly who will join in tlio procession in giving thu sluirgors. an audioncu and paying their expenses down from Omaha , what action thu authorities will take is not known at presont. Thu city council at their meeting Monday - day evening met with a little surprise by the announcoimmt from tliu sewer com mittee that Mr , Koismover , Ihu con. tractor on thu work , hud thrown lip the job and could not complete it Thu an- lUJiiucimiunt was also madu that two dif ferent parties worn ready to taku the con tract from his hands , and yesterday was bet for a .special meeting to act in the matter. The work of laying thosoworago pipes in thu vicinity ot thu H. & M. depot and grounds has been attended with ex traordinary expunso. and it Is evidently not a paying job under the contract as made. .Detective Pound returned homo from Wymore yesterday , wliero ho had been in the Interest of thu Nebraska Detective association , which made the arivsts of thu grain bureaus at Liberty , and not the Pinkerlon agency , as reported in thu Statu Journal.

The celebrated Knjah Joy Sing of Amber had married a Pi inc- ess of Harvati , wliosu simple provincial manners and sross subjected bur to the tmndinago of the refined and supurbly dressed ladies of the court of Amber. Ono day the Ilnjnh began playfully to make remarks about the swooping jupon of llio princc&s , and taking up a pair of scissors , said he would reduce it to the fashionable length. Highly offended at this nlayful remarks , she seized his sword , and , assuming a threatening at- tiludo , said that in the house to which she belonged they were not used to such jests , that mutual rcspoot was the guar dian not only of happiness but of virtue , and she assured him that if ho again dared to it'.siilt ' her ho would Iind that the daughter of Harvati could use a sword butter than thu pritieo of Amber his scissors.

There nro rorjr few people , outsHlo of n small circle of business inun , who realize tlio iinjiorlanco niul ningtiltudu of the pork packing Industry and the strength of the llrms entrant ! in it. A few clay ? a < ; o a paukln house was opened In South Omaha , an event which was duly chroni cled by the UKK , but It is to bo doubted if the nainu "Lipton's House1' inadu any Creator Iniprussioii upon the inlds of the readers than anv other ninno would have done. Yet the proprietor of the new paokin house at South Omaha , Mr. Thomas , ! . Lipton , bears the distirtion of being ono of the largest retail provision dealers in the world. In addition to the packing house at South Omaha ho has ,0110 in Chic'igo known as the .Johiislnmi Packing company. The principal retail Htoro is in ( Jlasgow , but h Iris no loss than thirty others located In the ehief cities of liroat Britain In front of thcso immense stores it is no uncommon thing to see a crowd of people cov ering" the Mtlewalk , crowding , pushing and pulling one another in an endeavor to gain admittance.

The floors and walls are tiled in elaborate and Hslcful patterns , while the weights , scales , guard rails , etc. , are of polished l ras . In everything the most scrupulous uciitncss is observed. Nothing that could give the least oflunso to llio most particular ens- tomer is allowed In any of the Mores. In addition to supplying iiis customers witli hog products from his Omaha and Chicago packing houses , Mr Lipton has been a largo consumer of American cheese. One of the leading features of his holiday display is the immense cheeses made in this county. Last month three of thcso cheeses , weighing 3,500 to 4,000 pounds each , and about tour and one-half ieet in height by twenty feet in ciroum- feri'iice , were snipped to Liverpool. In manufacturing these cheeses it wasncccs- btiry to construct a monster pre.ss , and when each cheese cam-1 fioni thu Dress it was essential to move it swinging upon trunnions , so that it might be turned and set either end up , much as Lieutenant Gorring swung the obelisk this with out marring the form of the cheese and not causing if to bulge or change its form in any nay. The success of this applica tion of mechanical devices was complete. The chcesiw present a great uniformity of form am ! solidity , and are of remark able excellence of qualitv , fully _ equal to the best cheese 01 ordinary si/.e. The sides are upright , the edges sharp , the tops and bottoms Ibt and the whole as perfect inform as a first-class fifty-pound choose. These gigantic cheeses will , in accordance with a custom of several years' standihg , be cut at Mr. Lipton'a leading retail houses , The excitement attending the cutting of ono of these cheeses , which had been for weeks ex hibited in one of the great windows , c'in hardly bo imagined. In order to increase the interest gold and silver coins arc sijittored through the cheeses. It is said that many of the customers cannot wait to reach homo before examining their purchase , and tear open the packages in the street , in hopes of lindintra valuable com The lucky ones usually rush back and buy another piece with the hope of a continuance of thu good fortune. Pure blood is absolutely necessary in order to enjoy periect ; health. Hood's Sarsaparilla purifies the blood and strengthens the system. AMUSKMI2NTS. The AVaRCS of Sin in Its Scoond Pro duction. The last production of ' 'Tim Wages of Sin" took place at the lioyd last night. The night was snowy and cold , yet the audience was reasonably largo , and satis factorily appreciative. As a whole , the company is inferior to that which pro duced the same pi ceo hero last season , ami yet , it gave a strong representation to the piece , but that of last year scarcely loft anything to bo desired. Of all who figured in the cast a year ago. Mr. Chas. O. Manbury as llio curate remains. His work is intense , and his effort throughout of the most conscientious order. Moral ists , however , may take exception to his pummeling of the villain in the fourth act , which results in the lattur's death , because the fistimifl's which loud to it have been superinduced more by jeal ousy , hatred , and a dcsiro for rovongo. than as a means of saving the curate's life. This inconsistency is the fault rather of playwright than the actor , yet , strange to say , it is a species of mock- heroic morality , which is not altogether foreign to inigos of some of the later En glish writer.- ) . Stephen Alarler , thu vic tim in this case was undoubtedly a brute , and deserved punishment , perhaps oven death , but it ill iiccumo a clergyman to seel ; him out with thu heroic Ktatu that ono or other of them must die. Of cnnrs/j the villain dies , and the clergyman , it is hoped , comes by hi.s own. It may bo well , however , for Mr. Man- bur > to know that his present company is travelling mainly on the reputation of the old one , and , it ho should bring the piece hero next year , success will largely depend upon an approximation to the original presentation huro.
