MISTAKEN IDENTITY. A peculiar case was quickly disposed of in United States court yesterday in which Kichard Hainforth , now living at Hast ing ! ) , was brouglit into court lor an of- iimso against the government committed Iwt'iity years ago. Al thai time tlio gov ernment found thai n lieutenant in the army by that name was deficient in hjs account with the government , and this ratio was now brought by the United States district attorney under instructions from the treasury department. Richard Rainfurth , however , quickly proved thai ho hail never been in tliu army and was in England at thu time of tliu alleged shortage , clearly establishing au alibi and a rase of mistaken identity. Rain- fortu states that he has heard that a cousin of his , buariug the same name as liinisulf , but whom ho has never mot , is Homowhuro in Ibis country in the regular army , and ho is evidently the party wanted. Daniel McCarthy was yesterday con victed in United States court of suborna tion of porjuiy , but has nol yet been sen tenced.

' No Chock to ttio Growth oT South Omnha The Sjtullcuto tmndfl Ajjnlti Placed on the Market. The founder of nncienl Homo Rave way to excusable passion because his brother joked him about tliu height of its walls , which ho could leap over. The City of Ihu Seven Hills has nevertheless become n central point of Interest for the entire world , and its name will figure in every history until the hand of the last hi.-itorian shall have written the ever lasting "Finis" for his racn. In much the same way men made fun of Omaha and its shortcomings when mud was king , but now scu It rising like a crea tion of the conjuror's ninglc wand. It has often been heard from croakers , who arc to be found in every city , that Omnha was not to meet the expectations of its founders , but not only has It far surpassed them , but to-day casts the shadows of its loftier spires imon-anothcr city that has sprung up by Its side. Surely South Omaha has had : i most re markable record , and yet it seems scarcely to have started in the race it Is running with its older sister. When tno svndlcato three .years ago , bought up tlio most beautiful farms in the richest county of Nebraska and established the Union Stock yards in the center , they were building butter than they knew. Now ho busy yards lire surrounded by a magic city whose people liavo biiilt'for ihomsclvcs homes aim homos thatdottho liillsldeji in every ilirecllon and have changed the once quiet little valley to n bceno not less beautiful for being full of bustle ami activity. For two years , however - over , the finest portion of all the tract owned by the syndicate hns not been available. These lands have all been platted and will to-day bo placed on the market , the exclusive agency for them laving been given to C. L. Mayno , muter ivhoso control some of the most valuable and desirable properties in the city and its 'iiburbs liavo been developed. . This is lews that will bo eagerly read by those nicrestcd in the welfare and prosperity of South Omaha , and of this city itself , is the two will soon bo built logollicr mil become ono. As overv ono knows the laud now for the flrsl luno open for iMirchasers is the fairest of all that fair ract originally bought by the syndicate. That il will cause a general rush in that lirection no one can fora moment doubt' . The building sites are without a superior n all the suburbs of Ihocity. Mr. Mayno ighlly considers that lie has never taken lold of any real cstalo lhat promised lo meet with such general public favor and to give such satisfaction in return. It seems to be without a single fealuro that is other than desirable. The IncKicst and inosl propitious event that has been re corded for the city in many months is this opening up of South Omaha syndi cate land to the public and the boom be ginning will result in increasing the value of every foot of ground between the slock yards and Iho Omaha post- ofllco. Mr. Mayno has his plals all finished and they can be seen nt his oflico at any time. Thuy will show some of the finest evidence lots anywhere , ' which will bo n great demand for aristocratic man sions as well as the comely cottage of the workir.gman. No time should bo lost in ixaminiug into this matter , and certainly 10 one can afford lo lose so fine an in- Yuslmeiit as is hero offered. liavo You Seen Them ? If not , call on W. G.

A T lo of a MurdiT a Century Old Found in n Musty Tonic. In a dark corner of the I'itt burg law library , says the I'ittsbtirir Dispatch , are piled a number of old and musty volumes i of legal law , but little used , tlio science s of obtaining or delaying justice having advanced since they" were authorities. While looking through one of these books Friday , Librarian i' . G. Digby discovered , neatly folded , a time-stained sheet of vellum , inscribed in ancient Dutch char acters. The document is apparently an ollici'.il transcript of a criminal trial at Haarlem , in Holland , in 1707. A free translation of the manuscript , divested of le al verbiage , brings to light a ease of circumstantial evidence , which resulted disastrously , not only to the accused , butte to tlio city of Haarlem. Godfried Yoho , a Westphalian boor , or clown , was pursuing his way to Amster dam in search of more profitable em ployment than Ills own country allbrdcd at that period. It happened that the party of immigrants with whom ho had traveled slopped to drink at a wayside tavern in Haarlem Wood , where ho soon became so completely intoxicated that they laid him under a tree asleep , and left him to gel along as he could when he became sober. Great was his terror ami inexpressible 1 his ama'/cuiont when , upon awaking , the ) poor wanderer saw about him a number of men dressed in blue and wearing sil ver hiked swords , and hearing himself accused of having robbed and murdered a merchant. Greater still was his horror and afVright on seeing that the blade and hilt of his knife were besmeared with I blood : that his right hand was bloodyand I that In his pockets was found property which was known to liavo belonged to thu murdered man. 1I Thu terror ami confusion ho manifested 1i I wcro naturally interpreted as unequivo cal proofs of guilt. His protestations and i supplications were alike disregarded. His county anil his poverty combined to render him a subject of reproach anil de rision , for the indigent German laborers were subject to insult and wrong in Hoi land. After many months of close confinement Yoho was broght to trial , The compan ions of the accused , appeared in his be half , and they proved that ho was dead drunk and neither able to stand nor walk when they left him in the wood. Tlio public prosecutor contended that ho had arisen in a state of fren/.y , had robbed and murdered tie | merchant , and , being unable to proceed , hud staggered back to tlio tree , and was thurotakon red-handed. The result was that Yoho was condemned to die , anil after having been tortured to make him confess his guilt and accom plices , but without success , was be headed. The fate ot the poor German had long been forgotten when , upon a gantr of desperntu robbers and murderers being detected in Golderlund , and just as thuy were led out to execution , two of them confessed the crime for which Godfrieil Yoho had suffered at Haarlem. The criminals , In their joint confession , stateil that as they were waiting the ar rival of a merchant in a herborg.or inn in Haarlem. Wood , who they know would puss along near about that time on his way from Loinmor to Amsterdam , they noticed the German boors anil the very drunken state of ono of them whom the rest of his comrades left dead drunk under an oaken treo. After they had murdered the traveler and plundered his person , events which took place only a very short distance from tliu spot where the unfortunate Yoho lay asleep , ono of the banditti suggustod the horrible ox- pcdipnt.pf staining his hands , his tear- mould , and his knife with the yet reeking ROff" of tlio slain , and putting Into hU pockets a forv of the least valuable trinkets found upon the merchant. The wretches were so hardened tli.it they were present at the execution of Yoho and watched the death of their victim. An appendix to the document stales that the facts of the case coming under t lie notice of the slaats general , the au thorities of Haarlem wcro hold to liavo hern guilty of culpable negligence In not ferreting out the real criminal. The cilv was , thi-rofore , lined 10,000 guilders anil lost the privilege ot evermore having its own executioner.

It is not generally known that among others who share this weak ness is that greatest of sinners , Mini ) . Adrlina Patti. For many years past no friend of any distinction has boon nor- milted to pass tlin threshold of the prima donna until ho or she has written a few words upon Mine. Patti herself or upon some otluT subject of interests. Tliu consequence is that the signatures of al most ever notability both in and ouUsido the musical world are to bo found in ono ot hcralbums , while , besides these are many letters of well known composers and musicians which Mine. 1'atti has had prosontud to her or has liursulf purchased. Of these are letters from Mo/.art , Beet hoven , Chopin aud other illustrious ones. Many extracts could be given from thcpo albums : wo will now , however merely give the following , which wo trust the gifted soiurstress will forgive us for publishing. The first is from Kossini , and is dated February 10. 1801. He writes : ' "Tis an easy and pleasant task which you liavo set me namely , to jot don at random a thought or two in your album. There are then three things which 1 shall over do first , admlro yon personally ; sec ondly , marvel intensely at your talent ; and lastly be unto dentil your most faith ful and grateful friend , G. Rossini. " Meyerbeer is much more formal and stifl. "I beg of you , ho writes , "to accept this as a tribute of my respectful homage and my profound admiration. " Berlioz on the other hand is characteristically witty. "How am I to tianslato oportet puti ? It has been variously rendered , you know. Pedantic scholars would have us believe it means , 'Sufl'uring is the lot of man. ' Not so say the jolly monks ; opovtol pati is simply , 'Bring iilther ( npportuz ) Iho pate , ' while with a still nearer approach to truth I with all true lovers of music and sontr , say it means , 'It is impossible to exist without Patti' ' " RUSHING TO DEATH. In the attempt to swim the Niagara whirl pool rapids is no more reckless or danger ous than to trifle with disease which each day secures a stronger hold and hastens the end of liffi. Thin U ] . oiully true of rheumatism , nciualgia , sciatica and ner vous hcndnche , winch though perhaps slight at first are extremely dangerous and readily secure a firmer grip until at last the agony is unendurable and sudden death brings re'lief. Thes-c diseases can be cured by the u e of Athlophoros which , in connection with Athlophoros Pills , never fails when prop erly used. Read Ilie following from ihose who have tested it : John S. Kbiincdv , Spearville , Kansas , savs ' : "Nearly two .years ago , four bottles ol'Athloplioros cured me of and I have had no return of the old com plaint since. Mrs. A. Newton , wife ot ex-Mayor Newton , Dcsmoincs , loxva , says ; "I had been a great sufferer for yearsand bad rein edics , but nothing would do what Athlo phoros did for me. Athlophoros took the stillness out of the joints of my fmgcre , which I had been troubled with so long. Murray. J.Cochran , Denison , Iowa , says : 'It is now two years since I used Athlophos ros , and I have had no rheumatism since. At the time I used this medicine I was crip pled so that I had to use crutches. My knees were swollen so that I had to cut my pant- in order to wear them ; my arms were Mill' at the elbows ; part of the time I could tint feed nybelf. While in this condition , I wa advised to take Athlophoros ; which I did. After using a few bottlts , I was completely cured. Every druggist should keep Athlonho- ros mid Alhlophoros Pills , bul where they cannot bo bought of the druggist the Athlophoros Co , , 123 Wall st. , Now York , will soud cither , carriage paid , on receipt of regular price , which is $1 per boltlo for Athlophoros and 60c for Ihe Pills.
