From the Boston ( Jlobo it appears that
Miss Lewis docs the most remarkable fall
nt the end of the third act of "Tho
Creole. " After the fall for n couple of
seconds , all is still as death , then the
cheering begins , aud Boston was set wild
night after night.
Billy Picrson and a fellow named
Sweigart. who have been occupying an
old rookery together , got into some al
tercation yesterday which resulted in
Sweigart being put behind the bars on a
charge of assault and Picrson being laid
out iu ono of the hospital rooms up
stairs with a bandage over his head. The
ecalp w und will probably heal soon.
Another beauty of the dear old lady's
"boiler iron" edition was apparent yes
terday morning. One column of its choice
reading matter had n double bond on
each end. The top was concerning Mor-
monlsm , nnd the botton half of the col
umn was upside down nnd finished off
with a heading , also upside down , con
cerning Cassius M. Clay. It isn't every
one WHO can make up a paper so that
two men can sit opposite each other and
rend with equaluaso at the same time nnd
in the same column two different arti
cles on two different subjects. The old
Indy should got a patent.
The first duty of the now council should
bo to lind some outlet for the Pearl street
Bower. The business houses along that
street have been waiting patiently for
Bomo move. The sewer is laid along the
Btreot to Fifth avenue , but as there is no
sewer for it to run/into the pipe cannot
bo used. The ncaring of completion ot
the court house is a reminder of the ne
cessity of having some sewerage for that
building. It has been proposed to build
a Fifth avenue snwor for that purpose ,
and let the Pearl street sewer empty into
that , but what shall the Fifth avenue
Bower empty into ? It's a puzzle , but the
city fathers will doubtless solve the prob
lem. One thing is certain , it has got to
be solved in some way , and the sooner
the better.
An Omaha couple , Hugh Thompson
and Anna Mnch , were married hero on
one Sunday in January by Justice Bar
rett. Now turns up wife No. 1 , who
claims that Thompson is n bigamist. De
tective Edgerton was over hero last week
looking up the record , and now Thomp
son has got to f nco the music. The wedding -
ding is well remembered hero , as thu
couple got lost on thu bottoms and had
quite an experience , which was narrated
in the BEE ut the time. They were very
particular nbout having the BEE reporter
excluded from the room during the ceremony -
mony , nnd warned the olliciating justice
not to lot the marriage bo published. Its
appearance in the BIE nttractod the at
tention of the womnn who claims to bo
the only nnd original wife nnd she started
on the warpath.

Wild Over Lotta.
The opera house last night was packed
with an enthusiastic audience , who gave
a most hearty welcome to Lotta ns ' "Mu
sette , " or "Bright Eyes. " Seldom has
there been such a sccno in the oporn
house as last evening. From beginninc
to iinish there was the greatest enthusi
asm , and applause followed applause in
terspersed only with labghtcr. Lottn
appeared ae ever , inimitable , indescriba
ble , a bundl'j of nerves with the quick
ness and keenness of lightning , and the
winsome simplicity of sunshine. She
' has a peculiar charm which wins and en
thuses any audience.

A MURDEROUS MYSTERY.

Was He Murdered ?
The finding of tltc body of the ninn
Jrvln near the Broadway crossing on the
Northwestern railway , continues to bo a
mystery worthy of the shrewdest detec
tive investigation. The supposition that
while drunk he carelessly came to his
death by being run over by the cars docs
not seem to satisfy the friends , and vari
ous circumstances indicate that such a
theory is not altogether reasonable. Yes
terday another brother , from Madison ,
Neb. , arrived here and spent the day in
investigating the matter , by the aid of
Chief Mullen. A number of cir
cumstances nro considfcrcd as so
adding to the mystery as Sto
make it at least possible that the man
was foully dealt with , and then left there
for the train to limsh. The railway men
nro puzzled over the fact that no one
knew when ho was run over , or how.
No outcry wus heard , and nothing at all
known of the occurrence until the
finding of the body at daylight.
It is said that seldom , if
over , an accident of this kind occurs ,
without there being sonic cry or groan
loud enough for some of the trainmen to
hear. The most suspicious circumstances ,
however , arc in regard to money matters.
The unfortunate man left his brother's
home in Madison , Neb. , with a cousin ,
on the Ulst of last month. Ho then had
with him several hundred dollars in cash.
He was not given to spending money ,
and Had not drank anything for mouths ,
although before that tune he had some ,
and occasionally got on a spree. Ho
went to Fremont county , selling some
patent right which he had. On his person -
son were found sonic tax receipts , show
ing that he had recently paid some taxes
at Sidney. It is possible that ho
may have bought sonic real estate there
with his money , but equally probable
that he got the real estate in trade for
his patent. Ho had in his pocket about
$5.80 when found , but as ho was in the
habit of having more money than that , it
awakens some suspicion. Moro suspic
ion is aroused , however , from the fact
that neither his watch nor revolver were
found upon him. A search was made
about the city yesterday , and at Gold
stein's pawn shop on upper Broadway ,
were found a watch and a revolver
which are believed to belong to the dead
man. The brother is cortam as to the
vatch , identifying that positively. As to
ho revolver he is not so sure , but thinks
t was the one ho owned. Mr. Goldstein
says thn revolver was sold to him for $5
and the watch pawned for $7 by a min
who came there early in the evening of
Monday last. Ho describes the man who
eft the articles there , but the description
Iocs not tally with the description of the
load roan. It resembles it somqwhat ,
lowoycr , enough to raise a question as
o whether Irvin did not dispose ot these
irticlcs himself. This idea is scouted by
Us brother , who says he had no occasion
o pawn anything , tor if ho ran short of
money ho knew where to get it very
readily without resorting to any such
method. It is a significant fact also that
10 pawn ticket was found on the body.
The man gave his name as Smith , and
from this and other circumstances the
heory is advanced that somcono robbed
ho man and then disposed of these arti
cles.
It is also urged that the appearance of
ho body and the marks about the place
where the accident occurred , were not
such as are usually found in the case of a
ivo man being run over by the cars.
Ihcro was less blood , and the condition
of the body indicated that life bad been
extinct for some time.
The supposition that ho had boon foully
ilealt with and then this means adopted
; o cover up the crime , seems to bo grow
ing in favor with these who liavo been
investigating the details. Whether
enough will bo discovered to settle this
question is a matter of doubt. The chief
circumstances against the theory is that
the locality is too public , apparently , for
; hus placing a body , it being rjght on
Broadway. Still it is urged that it might
nave been placed there at an hour in the
night when there was hardly anyone
passing. The investigation is by no
moans ended , and the brothers with thu
oflicers propose to search thoroughly
every trace leading to the discovery of
the truth.
A Higher High School.
The proposition to change the high
school building on the hill into a normal
school having been defeated by a yoto of
the people , aud the proposition to build
another school house having likewise boon
lost , the school board will now have to
make some change to accommodate the
needs. The high school has been re
moved from the hill , and has been occu
pying the portion of the Bloomer build
ing. It Is now proposed , and the idea
will probably bo carried out , to change
back again , placing the high school
classes in the bic building on the hill.
The young ladies and gentlemen will
thus be obliged to do some climbing every
day , It has boon pretty well settled ,
from the experiences of numerous fam
ilies hero , that this climbing is by no
moans healthy or helpful to the young
folks , especially the girls , and some cases
are reported in which even fatal injuries
are attributed to this cause. There are
many who will not send their children to
school on the hill. Tlioy prefer to send
them to some private school , or send
them to some other city to "jet their school'
ing. The attendance will be cut down ,
and the school system of the city will
suflcr somewhat , bat it seems that such a
change must bo made to accommodate
all. During the past year scholars in
some grades have had to do without scats
or dusks , squat on the edge of platforms ,
or occupy benches in the hall ,
but as there can bo no now build'
ing put up , it serins that the crowding
will have to bo got along with the best
way possible. If children sutler froir
being thus packed like herrings the
parents cannot with much consistency
lind fault except with themselves. Tlu
only way to get any relief scums to be tc
remove the high school to the hill and
lot the Bloomer building bo occupied uj
the smaller pupils.
It is expected that there will bo considerable
siderablo complaint , as there will b <
many inconvenienced. Many will object
to jeopardizing the health of their duuuh
tors by sending them up the hill , bu
they can hardly lind any fault will
the board for thus arranging matters
The voters have taken the responsibility
of suylng that is the way they want it
and the board can but carry out the wisl
thus expressed.
A Soft Stranger.
Charles McCloud and Tom Brooks wen
yesterday lodged in the county jail ti
await a further hearing on the charge o
robbery. The statement of the atlair ii
which they were concerned , as learnei
from these who caused their arrest , I
that the victim ot the robbery is an 1111
nois man , who was en route to Columbus
Neb. , to testify in a case which was sc
for ( rial yesterday ; Thu stranger wen
into Mctcalf's saloon , where McCloud
was tending bar. He fell Into conversa
tion with McCloud and Brooks , who was
hanging around the place. They , learn
ing that ho was from Illinois , at otico
struck up a friendship on the ground of
having lived there themselves , and be
tween the narration of reminiscences ,
drinks wore taken and the dice shaken.
The stranger got pretty mellow and
flashed his money foolishly. Then a hack
was taken , and Brooks and McCloud
took the stranger around to sec the
sights. In ono house of prostitution Mc
Cloud orderedjhreo bottles of brer , and
when the girl came for her pay , McCloud
turned his back as ho opened up the
pocketbook belonging to the stranger.
A looking gla s happened to bo where it
reflected the situation to the cirl , who
says that she saw McCloud not only take
out of the stranger's pocketbook enough
to pay for the beer , but also slip out : i
number of bills. After a little the
pocketbook was returned to the stranger ,
and while ho was listening to the gay
talk of the girls , McCloud and Brooks
slipped out of thu house , leaving him
alone. Ho afterwards found that his
pookctbook had been filled with some
nieces of paper , so as to make it seem fat ,
but that all of his money was gone , about
ft. ! .
On finding that he had been robbed he
notilicd the police , who becan investi
gating the matter. Thotwo young men
were arrested , and their bonds et at
$ 1,000 each. They are to havn a prelimi
nary hearing next Tuesday. The stran
ger was anxious to go on his journey , but
momiscd to return to prosecute. As he
had no money with which to got to Co
lumbus one of the friends of the young
men is said to have let him have f 10. It
is possible that the all'air may bo squared
so as to prevent any further publicity. If
Brooks anil McCloud had a better repu
tation the evidence against them would
not seem so strong , out they have * o
acted as to make it easy of belief that
they might yield to temptation.

I'lnyoil a Spndc.
A little dilliculty arose yesterday among
some of the men employed in cutting
away the trees and making various im
provements about J. C. Stewart's resi
dence. An old man , George Dresden ,
was being plagued by some of the
younger mou until he lost his temper ,
and in his rage ho lifted his spade and
with it struck ono of the young men ,
named Stiles , a blow over the head.
Stiles did not seem to bo seriously hurt ,
and did not even stagger. A few min
utes later , however , he fell to the ground
unconscious and remained in that con
dition over an hour. Dr. Mongomory
was called and niado a careful examina
tion , but no fracture of the skull was dis-
ccrnablo. Stiles was removed to his
home on the bottoms , and it is thought
that ho will speedily Ufe all right again.
For a time yesterday , while ho was lying
apparently dead , it seemed that the affair
was a very serious one , and the reports
concerning it did not grow less as they
went.
