llmt a party nanictl M. Hernandez luv
wrlltoii from Omaha to thoelloct that Vic
I lorla Moroslnl Schilling , thorlohir.au'
daughter and the coachman's wife wa
in this city and stopping at the convcn
of tlu ; Sacred IlciTt.
Itvi3 known , of course , that till
luckless woman , after her father's severity
verity , her own failure to succeed npoi
the MHL'o , and the novelty of a weditci
lifo with an adventurer had passct
away , had forsaken her spouse and mys
terioiiHlv dibappeared. All efforts t <
learn 01 lier wliercabouts had failed , am
the telegram in question , it was thought
would bring her to light.
A reporter lor the Ur.E according ! ;
drove to the academy yesterday morniuj
and asked whether any lady answering t <
the description of the Schilling womai
had lately been entertained there.
The query provoked unfeigned aston
isliment and a forcible yet courteous iln
nial from the mailamc with whom tin
conversation was held.
"Wo have no ouch person as you dc
scribe in the convent,1' said the madame
"It would bo against our rules to allow
any person except ourselves and our stu
dents to remain in the convent ovci
night. Unless in the most extreme cases
For instance , suppose our convent wen
at u great dibtance from towr
and something should pvcnt i
visiting mother from rcturmiif
at .night to her hotel , the only thhif
we could do would , be to permit he :
simply to stop in one of the lower room.1
of our building. Wo could not think o
allowing a married woman to enter tin
classes with our scholars. "
The reporter suggested that Victoria , i
looking for n convent , was doing so because
cause she wanted temporary rctiremcn
and to avoid the annoyance and unhan
piucss of her unfortunate position. 11 <
then detailed a few points in Airs. Schill
ing's career , her desertion of her father
her mariagchcr , debutand linal wamlur
ing away.
This * caused the sister to hcavo a sigl
of regret and exclaim : "I had not heart
of her history. I do not know of her. Hu
she is not here. Wo could not keep her
not even to Hfibril her asylum. Wo couh
not harbor her , oven if she had been rec
omnicudtid b.y ono of our convents it
which she might have been educated
Our academies arc not intended for sucl
purposes. Several weeks a o a mothe :
with her two children applied for admis
sion , and wo suggested to her to cal
upon Hie Franciscan sisters. But she ,
know , is not the lady you an
looking for. The amount o
room at our disposal nov
would prevent us also from harborim
her , because wo havn no more room thai
we now require , as wo have now eve ;
eighty ( scholars in the building. "
"Have any ladies been , recently admitlci
from the east ? "
"Tho only ladies who have come to xn
from the east , have been here since las
July. They are young and could not bi
mistaken for Mrs. Schilling. Thesi
came with recommendations , althougl
members of the same family havi
been educated by us in OIK
way or another for eight year
back. These recommendations we
always require. No child is admitted to tin
acailemy unless recommended , and IK
gentleman who comes to us with childrct
can induce us to act witli them' until wi
ascertain who he is. It would bo im
possible for Mrs. Schilling to enter with
out being discovered , and I say thu
positively and linnly we would not admi
any person except under rules , am
those would exclude Mrs. Schilling. "
The reporter then went to the Pee :
Glare convent. There is no boll to tin
outer door , and the visitor walks into tin
hall without ceremony. On ono of tin
bides he finds a bell-pull , and near it ai
aperture which is covered by a woodei
c5'lindor , which , in revolving upon ai
upright pinserves the purpose of a smal
door upon hinges. Some locks weri
trrncd inside and finally somebod ;
knocked within the cylinder and askci
what was wanted. The reporter , as i
talking against a dead wall , told o
whom ho was in quest. Hut there was IK
such party there. The convent was o\
elusively for the sisters of the order am
nobody was ever permitted , to pass be
yond the parlor , nor even hold couvrrs
with any of the nuns , except the sn
porior and then without beeing her fac
nud only upon the most urgen
business. The woman behind the woodei
drum said that there was fourteen sister
in the institution , and this was the sanv
number the Convent had had for som
months. There was no such person , sli
was positive , in the convent.
Jf Victoria Morosini Schilling bo ii
Omaha , she certainly is not at either o
the institutions mentioned ,

"There are just exactly seventeen gan :
bling houses that pay a license into Hi
oity treasury , " replied Ollicor Tiirnbul
to a roporteryostcrday "At this time las
year there wore but nine. "
"What is the increase duo lo ? " wa
naked of him.
'Tartly to the fact that the town i
growing larger , and paitly to the fac
that u number of ' 'joints" ran fen
n long time without paying a Jicon&c
bccauso they wore only 'private ' poke
rooms. ' Wo have raided these once o
twice , and now they tind it more prolll
able to coniu up nud pay their iTgula
line every month. How muuh is tlni
litvif i'J7.55 every month. "
This line or licence , or whatever th
reader bo pleased to term it , is mud b.
the smallest gambling houses in the cit'
: IB well as thu largest. It makes no dill'oi
cnce , in other words , whether one poke
game only is run in the place , or whethe
faro , Iccnoroulette or "stud" present con :
blued attractions , cacli proprietor i
obliged to pay the same lino. Not Ion ,
ago the police had a custom of assossia
u graduated scaleof lines according to th
numbw of dealers employed in a place
This has been done away with , howovoi
the moro simple and easily managed syi
tern being substituted in its place. "C
course the change is not agreeable to al
of the gamblers. Some ot thu fratei
nity who own thu smaller place
claim that they ought not bo compcllo
to pay as heavy lir.u us those establisl
meiits which are larger and run lieavie
games. Their protits , it is claimed , ar
not as large , ami yet they are n scsse
in the sumo proportion as the men wh
pro making twicu as much money.
Thu mnu who sot u this claim , pai
ttcularly , are the fellows who run th
private pouor rooms. The fact that the
secure a good "rake-off" on every gam
while not under nearly as heavy e >
ponces as the proprietors of the largo
establishments , IH considert'd a sutHcien
tuibwer to their objection. For th
benulit of the uninitiated , It Mioul
bo stated that the "rake-off" is
percentage which the house secured o
every I'luyor's ' profit , When a big gam
is in progress , this rake-off amounls ti
considerable. All establishments tha
"rake-on" " an
charge the - percentage"
considered regular gambling halls , thi
tile game plajed therein ceases to be i
"little friendly ono for fun
you know , " and the regular lines an
levied.
In another direction the city's rovcmn
has increased the past year. Wherea
there are now 178 saloons in the city , las
year there were but 1-10. This is an in
crease of thirty-two ami represents at
increase in revenue of $ ! W,000. Or.ly si :
of this number pay the $1,000 license ii
ono sum. The others pay quarterly ant
scnii-annually ,
Another and not inconsiderable iten
in the revenue is the money paid by tin
fallen women of the city. Of these , as
Olllccr Turnbiill reports , there are nov
about 200. The piopriettes os pay ? 10 i
month and Hie girls ? 0. The incoim
from this source will be pretty close t <
? ! ,500 this month.

In thn Union Pacific headquarters , general
oral superintendent's ollico , a now tiim
chart has just been put up , which by !
peculiar system of pegs and threads , i
calculated to show all the trains on ai
the divisions of the road , as well as UK
running lime thereof. Dlfl'orent coloret
banners are placed hero and then
to represent the snow sheds am
eating houses on the system. Koi
banners represent the former ; white ban
nurs , ihe latter. The capacity of the dif
fercut eating houses is also denoted.
The elevator in the Union Pacific head
quarters is now running. It is appreciated
as a great convenience for the hundreds
of clerks who work in the upper stories
of tnc building.
The strong winds upoivl the pralrio yes'
torday morning resulted in a delay to all
thu trains. No.2 come in at 10:30 : and the
Grand Island rolled in hi two sections ,
the first nearly on schedule time , ami at
12:10 : o'clock , nearly an hour behind.
It is underdcrstood that there is a mu <
tual satisfaction on the part of the
Union Pacific and Missouri I'acllio road.
over the withdrawal of the latter from
the depot on Tenth street. One reason
assigned for this is the fact that the
Union Pacilic hcrcafter.will be without n
proximate rival for its Kansas Citj
business. The Missouri Pacific runs to the
same place , and in a more direct manner ,
so much so that the majority of the pco
ple.who traveled to the Missouri lowi ]
generally went by way of the Missouri
Pacilic. To leave from the Union Pacilic
depot and still patronize a rival line , wa :
galling indeed. Now , however , the
Missouri Pacilic is witli a line witli whicl :
it. can in no measure be considered p
rival. It Is removed from the accidental
benefit which certainly resulted as a con
sequence of its intimacy with the Unior
Pacific and now , the latter corporatior
will bo enabled to profit by the removal
The evening trains both from the casi
and the west were somewhat dolayrdby
the wind and cold. Train No. 4 fron :
tnc west on the Union Pacilic , duo ai
5:20 : , did not arrive until C:20 : , being ar
hour and ten minutes late. Train No. ]
did not leave for the west until 0:20 : last
evening , bem" over an hour late , causci
by delays on the road from Chicago.

An Oil ! Soldier firing Tried for Thnl
Crime.
In United the States court j-estordaj
morning , the trial of H. C. Griffiths , foi
forging pension papers for ono Joseph 11 ,
Hughes , was commenced. Griffiths is an
old soldier and has lost both legs. This
fact entitles him to a good deal of sym
pathy. "Wo have got a dead sure case
against him , " said District Attorney
Lambortson yesterday. "Tho only thing
that can possibly save him is the fact
lie lost both legs in the late war ? "
It is claimed that in 1883 , Grilllths went
to Hughes and offered to procure him a
pension if lie would allow him ( Griffiths )
to draw up the papers. The affidavit
was accordingly drawn up , and in the
presence of the county clerk was sighcil
by a man who claimed to bo Dr. N. W ,
Chamberlain , assistant surgeon of the
Thirteenth Indiana regiment. This man ,
it is claimed , was either Griffiths or a
confederate of his. The forgery was a
bungling ono and was patent on iho face
of if.
Hughes , the man b.y whom the pensior
was to bo drawn , was tried , for compli
city in the crime , convicted and seiv
tonccd to three months in jail. His term
to tiso his own words while testifying to
dav , lie served like a little man.
Patrick MoNultv , who is charged witl :
breaking open a United States mail-bo >
at Lincoln , was brought into court to
day. He plead guilty. His only defence
was that ho was drunk at the lime tin
offense was committed.
Clipping Horses.
To the Editor of the BEE : The theory
of clipping , which is announced as a dc
fonse to the "suggestions" of the ox
ceutivo committee 01 the Nebraski
Humane society by the writer siguiiif
himself "Horseman" may bo plausible
when horses are subjected to hard driv
ing , but his original announcement was
ono calculated to induce owners o
liorsps for family and ordinary uses t (
have their horses clipped also , which , ii
it was done , would to our mind , be a mos
cruel treatment.
As representatives "of the Nebrask :
State Humane society for the prcvenlioi
of cruelty to animals , wo propose franKl ;
and fearlessly , without prejudice o
malice or a desire to infringe upon an ;
one's rights or privileges or any wish t (
render ourselves meddlesome or ob
noxious , to call attention to such acts ai
appear to us to give discomfort to tin
dumb animals , whoso usefulness am
fidelity to mankind have been for age
o xemplilied and whoso mute appeal ti
man's sympathy for a little considcra
tion has been so long ignored. Wo an
conscientious and honest in pur inten
tions and have no notion in view but tin
comfort of the poor beasts whoso tnlvo
cates wo are , uut wo will do our dutj
oven at the risk of becoming unpopulai
with those who do not fully appreciate
the noble objects and the future benefit !
morally to our citi/.cns that will accrue
from a popular support of a society
which is destined to become an "institn
tion" of 3'our own.
"Horseman" offers as an argumen
"that God docs not give us horses witl
hlioes on , " neither docs He semi mai
into the world with clothing ; on. Hi
does , however , give to the horse a coa
of hair anil increases that coat as tin
weather becomes colder. Ho also pro
vidcsthe horse with bushy tail and mam
to brush away Hies , and no specious ar
giiment can convince a humane mat
that the horse is moro comfortable ii
winter with the coat clipped or bettc :
pleased to have its mane and tail cut ol
bi-caiiHo a "bob-tail nag" may tieklu tin
fancy of the thoughtless owner ; and i
"Horseman has lived forty-live years hi
knows that thirty years ago "bob-tailed1
horses wcro "all the fashion. "
Our object is not to induce nowspapoi
controversy or engender unpleasant feel
ings , but to correct errors when , in oin
honest judgment , basi'd upon oxpcricnci
ami a carutul investigation of the matter
wo discover them.
Wo realize that the press is the mos
valuable medium through which to react
the public , and so long as the courtesy h
extended to us wubhali avail ourselves o
U , not to niiiko personal allusions orgivi
annovanco , but as an educator only , am
in doing this wu do not wish to bo mis
undcrbtood. Our object should bo urn :
will bo yours , ami wo expect the counte
auco , endorsement and support of al
good citi/pns. The Humane society is i
moral educator , a humanizer , and at
such will help to make good citi/.ohs.
"Horseman's" experience mayjustifj
Ids assertion regarding ; the clipping ol
horses that must bo "ilrlvon hard" am :
in thus specifying ho admits E. Converse
that the clipping of horses in gunura
at this season of the year would bo cruc
and injurious , Wo are sorry wo do no
know "Horseman" and wouhl rather hi
had confessed his identity as wo have am
shall continue to do for wu aru satislict
from the tenor of his article that hu is :
well meaning man , a humane man , and i
man from whoso experience we mlgh
gather some useful hints that might be
valuable to our society , and wu are in
clined to think tliat his entliiisiabm foi
thu "American Patent Clipper" may liavi
induced his warm defense of the rlippiiu
referred to. Wo also know that tlii
affection which thn firemen have fortheii
horses wouhl make it dangerous for air
ono to harm or even render iincomfort
abht ono of the noble and intelligent am
mats that belong to thu tire department
Some years the over-head check lim
was introduced and extensively used al
over the country , as u means of givinj
additional style and beauty to the hois <
and thousands of noble , generous tun
k'md-ueirrteu1 ueu allowed the over-boat
check line on their horscs.Sgnorant of th
crue'lty rtnd injury tins barbarous contrivance
trivanco was inmctlug upon the pee
beast. So soon tn they wore informed b'
those who made this matter a study , an !
informed through the columns of tin
press , no humane man could bo indued
again to permit the use of the over-lieae
check lino. In onr larger eastern eltie
it is now almost entirely abamloncd. Ii
the early fulurowc will , with the permis
sion of the cdilortgivu the public the rca
