A SUatliiK Itlnk Men of War-Court Mutter * The BurglnrB Matrimonial menial Mention Police Points Other Local. A RcmnrUnltlc Story. Air. King , the husband of Julio Hive- King who played last night at the exposi- lion building , related to a HII : : reporter yesterday the slory of his rumarbable ex- pcricnco In Loavcnworth. "i don't believe , " he said "that I ever had such a remarkable time in my life. The way ol It was this : My wife was en- caged by the Y. M. C. A. branch In Leavomvortli to play nine nights in that city. The contract was negotiated through the ngent of the association , Mr. Aronson. When the engagement was closed , and I went around to get my money , Mr. Aronson was nowhere to bo found , all tlio box ollico receipts were gone , and I was politely informed bv the members of the association that tfioy hud no money for me. Mr. Aron son , they said , was responsible for the contract , and 1 must look to him for my money. No one .sccmwt to know where Mr. Aronson was , anil what was more , no one seemed to care. One of the members of thjassociation informed me that he had defaulted to a largo amount. "A remarkable feature of the occur rence was that I could not get my siuo ol the story limited in the local papers at all. The Y. M. C. A. people had their Mory published all right enough , highly colored and badly twisted , but when I asked for the privilege of replying , not a ninglo paper would grant my request. They were all afraid to. Anil what waH more , 1 couldn't find a job ollicc that would nrmt dodgers for me , setting forth the talc ot woo that I had to tell. Each printer assured me that hn would Jiko to do it , but he was afraid of being boycotted by the Y. M. C. A. In fact , I tried every way of getting my side of the story into print" , but failed utterly and ig- nominioiisly. Upon coming to Omaha I placed an article detailing m.v expert- cnco in Loavcnworth in the hands of the printer , with instructions to print mo a large number of dodgers. These I pro pose to circulate in Leavciuvorth , as the last and onl.y means of informing the public there just how my wife and 1 were treated. 1 have also commenced suit in the federal court at Topeka against the Y. M. ( ' . A. of Leavciiworth to recover the full amount on my wife's contract. " A SEVEN COMPANY' POST. The New Hiillillti s nt Fort Robinson Army Notew.

New buildings are urgently needed , and the work of construction will bo pushed rapidly on. General lireck stated yesterday morning that the regimental headquarters of the Ninth cavalry would bo probably estab lished at Robinson. There are now at that post four companies of Infantry and three of cavalry. This is an incrcisc of three companies over the old apportion ment. Aside from tlio fact that the present quarters at Fort Robinson are entirely too small for this Increased number of soldiers , the buildings are in bad shape and stand greatly in need of reconstruction and repair. Col. Stanton. army paymaster at Salt Lake City is in the city , greeting his old friends and associates in military life. lie expects to remain here four or live clays.

The doiurtment oncanipniPiil will In hold in this cily FOIUO time in February at which timu it is expected not less thai : 1,500 soldiers will bo present from til. parts of the state. The leading inoniboi. of the G. A. H. are dovnutly hoping thai citixeiis may bo Induced to nitiko ponu effort in the way of a welcome to those who will tluiii como among us. Thoj hope for it ns much for Omaha as the\ do for the soldiers , because they hold i as about time that Omaha should raili/ < the fact that the pre.ioneo of many s trail gors in the city means the financial ad vantage of many tradesmen.

A number of gentlemen of this olt.v prominent among whom is Mr. A.V Patterson , of the Nebraska & Iowa In hiiranco company , are figuring on creel ing an ice skating rink in tins city , Th bohoino is to procure two lots soniowher in the center of the town , or as noa thereto as possible , anil erect a larg building with all the conveniences of th rinks in larger cities. On the first col night the Interior will bo flooded wit water from the h\drants , and at eac successive cold snap water will bo a ; Jo\veit to cover the ice for the deplli of a inch or two , so that in time the U > t : thickness of the ice will bo several feei Jn this way the leo can bo kept in goo condition , it is believed , fur the entir winter. There is no doubt but that sue : m institution would bo well supported and in fact woud | make money. A present there is no place for the lovers c this exhilarating pait-timo to disp'nr themselves on , short of Cut-oil' lake , s > o ) eial miles distant. The main trouble in carrying out th scheme , will bo the trouble to secure th lease of the necessary lots nt a rcasoi able figure. At present several sites ar in view , among them being the vacan tots on the -outhcast corner of Thirteen ! and Capitol avenue , those on the nortl west corner of Thirteenth and Dodge and those on the corner of Kightcctit and Furiiam , opposite the county com house. It is probable that f he rink \\i ibo bo located lu. oao of those three plucci Jt is the desire of the gentleman in charge of the scheme , to secure property will the privilege oi a five years lease. The only ice rink which was estab ishcd in this city , was managed ir I87K-80 , by a gontltman who is now in .ho real estate business. It was on r loudwhich used to be on the slto of the ircscnt H. & M. freight house. The rinfc was nothing but a high boarding , un oofed , nulled to 4.vl scantlings driven nto the mud.

An Iowa Soldier Whose Wound * Frightened a Unilroad Outer or a Lawsuit. One of the most remarkable railroai damage cases on record is that of D. H McKmley , of Osage , la. , against UK Northwestern. McKinley was a bugi man , powerful ami athletic. One day years ago , when it was customary to ro > ervc a car in each passenger train foi ladies anil their escorts , he left bis saoho in a seat at Harvard , ill. , and rclumei Lo the platform to bid his friends gooi by. Upon attempting to re-enter the cai the brakeman stopped him with tin query : "Lady in the car , sir ? " "No , but I huvo a "Tip. " "Can't let you in ; it's against * th < rules. " "Drat the rules ! " and with'thal McKin ley forced his way through the door. Jus as ho passed , the brakcinan hit him a. tcr rilic blow on the left shoulder , fructiinii } the bone in three places. McKinlu' ' turned , picked the brakeman up with till right hand , dashed him to the floor , am nearly trampled the lungs out of him Then lie htopped into the first law ollici he came to and began suit for 125,000 , The railroad attorney to whom tlio dc fenso was committecd had somodillicult ; in looking up McKmloy's ' record , unti quite accidentally one day ho met an oh Iowa friend who was well acquaints with the defendant. "Why , Mclvinly , " said.tho Towa man "was one of the bravest , and at the sann time one of the most unfurtuuatc ot sol diors. If ho hadn't the constitution of ; cat he'd have been deaQ years ago ; and i his wounds hadn't kept him in the ho1 pital so long ho would have graduate ! from the rebellion a brigadier instead o a captain. He was a marvelous ligiitei MoKinloy started out a private witli th Btli Iowa in 18111. . Ho led a charge a Hluo Mills , Missouri , and was shn through both logs Jlo was promoted t a lieutenancy for gallantry , and upo : leaving tlio hospital in July , N3IW , was at signed to the 21th Iowa infantry thoi forming. His next setback was down 11 the Vicksburj ; campaign. At Champio Hill a shell exploded over him , on piece crushing through his face , near th right nostril , and lodging in His throai another imbedding Itself in his braii : Inserting a linger , ho cooly picked th piece out of his throat and then collapsci It took months and months to rt store him. The Iron never was taken oi of his brain , and eventually a runniii. sore came in the roof of his mouth. H rojolncd us in November , 18011 , at No\ \ Iberia , southwestern Louisiana , The da ho returned to duty his company ha | pencil to bo stationed near the drui corps in dross parade , At the first ber on the drums an unearthly yell escape bun and ho fell to the ground almoi dead from nervous pro.ilration. Hovt returned to the hospital. Again ho HI out in tlio spring of 1801 to join his con maud , which was following the unforti nato Hanks through the lied river can paign. The steamer conveying him tt the river was attacked above Aloxandri and riddled , Ho cbcaped with a bulJi wound through the right arm , but bo hate to go back to tlio hospital. 'I never saw McKinley again until oi regiment got around in Virginia. Ho r turned to us in the Sheridan i-ampaigi liv this time the boys find ali eomo to r regard him as a'hoodoo'and ; the llr word that pa cdg along thoj line wa 'McKinloy is back ; look out for a fight The battle of Fisher Hill followed , but 1 went through it valiantly without , u talniug , = o much as a scratch. Then \ \ thought that perhaps ho had struck U limit and his luck had chuiigod , Tl night following .wo were pursuing ti enemy down the turnpike. Kycryboi supposed tln-rc , was a cavalry depk ahead , and wo were marching listlcssl , waiting for the eohos of an enitagemen As wo were plodding up a defllo aoll ( ofurtillory and enough musketry to kcc it respectable company , struck i square from thorout , Tl confederates were intrenched n' ' : lie summit ofttbe knoll which the plkt crossed. Every one fell flat and crawlci : out the best way ho could. The reibc wore afterward dislodged , and rctreatci ! with our corps in pursuit. Among the killed and wounded MoKinley was found , shot through the hip twice and His tlilgli bone broken. 1 was left > uth anolhei drummer to take care of him until morn ng. Ho wag placed with twelve othei wounded men in a cabinat Kdiubiirgh , About midnight Mosb3' , prowling in out rear , raided the town. Myself and chum crawled under the cabin , The guerrillas walked up to the door and lired a vollc.v nto the dying men. Kightof them were milled. At least a doxen holes were shol .hroiigh McKinlcy's cot and covering , jut he had received his last wourd of the war , to the close of which ho was con- - incd in the hospital. "The next timu I heard of McKInhvy was at Cedar Hapids In 1SU7. It was du ring the slate fair. One morning , in scanning a local newspaper , 1 read thai lie was there representing the Holoit liooling-l'apei' company , lie was super ntciidhig tlic unloading ot a car load ol .lie paper , for exhibition , when a careless running switch threw a car against thu Jiio in which ho was working , knocking dm down and breaking a leg. Two win- ors afterward his team ran away with inn at Osage , and ho had three ribs bro- < cn in the wreck. " "Any olhor casualties Unit you know or ? " asked the attorney. . " 1 understand that ho mot with two so- ious accidents when a young man , but 1 un not familiar with thodotails. " "W-o-M , I guess wo don't , want any awsuit with iilm if ho did whip the jrakoman. " McKinley was paid $20,000. Hints Tor Christmas.
