A Strnn n Story.
A very nnicli distracted Gormim
woman named Jolmnnn U'cir , about
forty-live years of nfio , appeared in police
court yesterday and poured n strange
tale into Jmlfiu Stcnbcrtj's ear.
Ln t February , n year ago this month ,
her ( lauKhter , Mathilda , u pretty buxom
Gorman lass , was married to an Omaha
man , who shortly after the marriage removed -
moved to Seriinton , lThe daughter
corresponded with hur mother regularly
from her new homo. At ilr.st her letters
were of a ehecrfnl. happy tenor. Then
thny irrewsatl. And finally they told of
beating received at the hands of her hus
band , and of KOMPp.il brutal treatment
received from him. The daughter spoke
of coming home , and then her letters
censed. I lor mother every day looked
for the arrival of her daugntorwlio , how
ever , never came.
A few nights ago Mrs.Veir , who is a
widow rehident on bnutli Tenth street ,
near Councilman Goodman's house , was
awakened from a sound slumber by noise
in her back yard. Hushing out , she saw
two or three men expostulating with a
woman who was partially concealed behind -
hind a tree , but who Mrs. Wier firmly be
lieves was her daughter. The rough
words and oaths of thomen were mingled
TV'lth the streams of the girl , who seemed
to bo anxious to escape from the men.
The mother rushed forward to rescue her
chiltl , but was se.i/.ed by one of the men
who roughly ordered her to mind her
own business and go into the house. Sud
denly , as though swallowed up by the
earth the cirl disappeared , together with
the men who surrounded her.
Very much agitated Mrs.V'jlr made a
Bcnrch" the promises and the neighbor
hood. She found no trace or further euo
to the mystery.
Sunday night , or rather early yesterday
morning the same noises were repeated ,
the wild despairing shriek of a woman
mingling with the ouisos and impreca
tions of men. Again Mrs. Weir rushed out
just in time tq.seeono ot the men lire at a
while robed lignre which the woman is
certain was that of her daughter. The
marksmen must have been unerring , lor
the white liguro dropped to the ground
without a groan. The men then disap
peared , with the apparently lifeless body.
Mrs. Weir is confident that the woman
In white was her daughter , who in trying
to return to the maternal roof , was inter
cepted and perhaps murdered by ene
mies.
Her story is be.ing invesjigatcd by the
police. It is probable that it is the crea
tion of a brain disordered by grief and
bitter anxiety.

What Was none In Jtulgo Stcnbcrg's
Court JVcHtcrilay
A strapping young touch named Mike
McDonald was arraigned yesterday before
Judge Stonherg for raising a disturbance
at the Salvation Army barracks on Jack
son street Sunday night. lie had jumped
on the drummer who famishes the music
for the army and thumped him soundly.
Ullicers Mostyn and O'lJoyle , who were
present , arrested him , and also S. Zim
merman , who disturbed the meeting.
Owing to the presence of the police the
services were far more tranquil last night
than any previous evening. ISoth Zim
merman and McDonald were sent back
to jail to await the appearance of the
Salvationists as witnesses.
The Salvation army people sent tip
word to Judge Stcnbcrg Yesterday after
noon that thov had prayed to God to for
give McDonald and Zimmerman , the two
toughs who urokotip the mooting Sunday
night. Thoydid not want to prosecute
them , but Judge Stcnberg will put them
through , novertholoFS.
Ed. Dabbington had been arrested for
stealing a pair of boots from a store on'
'Tenth street , lie was given fifteen days
in the county jail. Frank Fmlay and
William Collendor , who had a quarrel
Saturday'night , wore lined $15 and costs
and committed. Twelve drunks and dis
turbers of the peace wore arraigned.
Seven were lined and the rest discharged.
A man who had been arrested on suspi
cion of stealing $80 from Nitzon , the
Thirteenth street saloon man , was re
leased.

What Oinnhn Imdles Want to do for
the Mnid'loiiCH.
Mrs. G.V. . Clark , the active and fear-
i * less W. C. T. U. worker of this city left
' last night for Lincoln to push the bill now
pending in the legislature , known as
House Roll No.1M. .
( This bill provides "that there shall bo
| - established in the state of Nebraska , an
institution to bo designated ami known
as the Nebraska Industrial Homo. 15o-
sides bhelter and protection , the object of
tills said institution shall he to provide
employment and means of self-support
for penitent women and girls , with a
view to aid in the suppression of prosti
tution. "
The bill furthermore provides for an
f appropriation of if'5,000 for this purpose.
< Mrs. Clark and Mrs , Ada Hittondorfcr ,
of the "Woman's ' Associated charities"
have strong hopes of the passage ot the
! bill."What
"What will j-ou do in case the bill docs
not pas ? " asked a reporter of Mrs. Clark
rcsterday.
"We shall go right to work and raise
' .ho necessary funds right In this city.
There is great need for such a home in
STobraska7"
'I cannot toll you how much wo need
; his establishment"continued Mrs.Clark.
4Many a poor woman would 'cavo ' those
> ml houses and u life of shame
f she had some refuge to sock.
But where can she go ? We can only ac
commodate one or two of them at a time
liore at the liuckingham , nnd that only
temporarily. No private family would
[ five work to ono of these poor outcasts
! localise of the stigma which attaches to
lior. There is no doubt but that such n
homo would help hundreds of these poor
women every year to a reformed life ,
llosldcs , if the bill now in the legislature ,
which raises the ngo of consent to
eighteen years , passes , as wo believe it
will , hundreds of young girls under
that ago , will bo compelled to leave these
bad houses. Where can they go , if not
to some such homo as this ono we want to
found ?
' Jf wo establish such a homo as this , "
concluded Mrs , Clark , "wo shall aim to
make it an industrial institution. We
bhall try to make it , as far as possible ,
self supporting. The nomon will bo
taught to ito sowing , besides raising light
vujrctabk's and fruits , etc. , in the garden
which will bu attached to the institution. "

They May Shortly lie Dispensed With
by the Union 1'anillc.
Tlu-ro ia n. strong probability that a big
change is to bo made in the operating de
partment of the Union Pacilio , This , it
is claimed , has been occasioned by the
work of Mr , Straight , the master of
transportation , who it is said , lu ono
mouth io economized lu rurlous ways as
to save the company about $11,000
Since the Introduction of some of
the present ollicials it is well
known that a number of
now positions were created and filled
with friends brought from abroad. Yet ,
the work the latter now do had prev
iously been done by individuals who had
other duties also to attend to. Some of
the changes which have already taken
place foreshadow greater ones which
will certainlv result In the reduction of
the cost of funning at least this division
of thoroad.
Iloyt Sherman , general agent of the
Union Pacific at Salt l/.xko City , is in
town.
Next Wednesday another of the Union
Pacific excursions to California will take
place. Three carloads of people have
already secured transportation. The ex
cursion will bo under the direction of Mr.
Green , the traveling passenger agent of
the road.

A 1'rlsoner SpcakH Out in Court About
Ij.ivyers. .
"Judge , you needn't ' give mo no law
yer. 1 hain't got no use for ono. "
This deliant remark was the utterance
of one of the prisoners in tlm district
court yesterday morning. His name was
Setli Kerns , and ho had been arraigned
on a charge of highway robbery. Judge
Neville , as is his custom , was about to
assign him counsel at the state's expense
inasmuch as ho had no money ot his
own to nay a lawyer's fees.
"No sir , ho added , planting himself
squarely and meeting the judge's aston
ished ga/.o. "i don't want no lawyer to
defend me.1
"JJul , " gasped the judge , who was
thoroughly amazed , "you "must have n
lawyer , or tills case can't bo tried. Un
less you seriously object , 1 shall certainly
assign you counsel. "
"Wai , I reckon I do object seriously , "
returned the prisoner , " 1 don't know
much abqjit courts , jedgo , but from what
I have scon of the lawyers who hang
around this place waiting for you to give
'em a job , I guess 1 don't need any sich ;
I'd rather got along without one. "
Ho was allowed to have his own way
and shortly afterwards plead guilty. Sev
eral lawyers who hang about the district
court waiting for such "jobs" are said to
have blushed violently at this episode. It
is just possible that the prisoner's bold
declaration may have bad a spice of
truth in it.

Something About the Missives thnt
ItttrUcn the Mails Ycstcrdny.
"Valentines ? Yes , we've plenty of
them , " said a clerk in ono of the largest
drug stores handling such goods to a re
porter who was in quest of information.
They come In all sizes , varieties and at
all prices.
The reporter was shown a bewildering
display of fancy articles , more or less
elaborate , which showed up splendidly
under the brilliant gas 'ight. '
"Here is ono , " ho Bald , "that I'll sell
you for three cents. It's small , but it's
pretty. The sentiment is thick enough to
suit the most lovesick swain. Head it.
" 'Little one , pretty one ,
( .entloas the dove.
May not ono In such a ono
Send n little lovoV
"How'll that do for a starter ? Here's
another ono just as sick :
" 'SloenhiR or walking ,
At school or at piny ,
I think of I Ian ! , darling.
Uy nlKht and by day. '
" 'That'll do for children. Hero's an
other equally soft :
" 'So sweet are you ( lulling ,
So jicutlo and Kind.
Si > dear Ami deliuiont ,
So much to my mind
That all the world over
1 never shall Hud
So iiH'tty a fairy ,
So ( ovine Inclined. '
"In case the customer can't find ono
sufficiently soft to send to ills or her
lover , we have something to fall back on.
Hero is a book containing n largo num
ber of verses , of all varieties and de
grees of expressions. One can't fail to
hud something hero that will suit ex
actly. The verso is then cut out and
pasted on the inside of the valentine ,
and then iho missive goes , freighted with
its burden of love. "
"Is there anything especially now in
the way of valentines ? "
"Yes. Prang N : Co. liavo issued some
very neat designs in parchment paper ,
of variegated lines. Hero is a hand some
satin cushion-sachet , with hand-painted
( lowers. It is expensive , costing $7 , and
is about the most .expensive 'Valentino' '
inhere. Hero is a silk and satin gloss
sachet which sells for ? 5. The ordinary
gilt and colored valentines range in
prices from three cents to a dollar
lar , according to size and finish
"You'll bo surprised , " continued the
man behind Iho counter , "to note the
people who como in hero to purchase val
entines. The sale of these missives of
allcction is not confined to school girls
and boys or to giddy young persons , as
some people imagino. Staid business
men and ladies past middle age como inhere
hero and purchase valentines , i'or ' whom
they are intended I'm sure 1 don't know.
Another very , funny thing about this
business is that people who purchase val
entines are always anxious to let you
know to whom they arc to be sent. A
girl always tolls you 'it Is just for a
young lady friend,1 while n young man
confidentially lowers his voice and tells
you that ho wants to surprise his sister ,
etc. Of course , wo have to drink all this
in , and pretend to believe every word of
it. Hut wo don't. " "
The book stores are full of the cheap ,
comic valentines , representing all sorts
of impossible and absurd characters.
They range in price from a cent a pinco
to a nickel for two. Their sale docs not
appear to bo at all diminished , anil the
chances arc that a larger number of them
will bo sold than over.
