THE OMAHA DAILY BEE : WEDNESDAY , MARCH 30. 1887. THE LOCAL NEWS BUDGET , Mrs. John EIcoz Deserts Her Husband in a Remarkable Manner. THE RAMPANT MISSOURI. A Fatal Accident She Wouldn't Marry a Chinaman Police Lo cal Court News Ilrcv- illCH , KtC. Rcmnrknlilo Cnso of Desertion. Ono of the most singular nnd cruul ' oases of desertion on local record was unearthed yesterday by a reporter for the BBK. John Ilickox is a gentleman who Is employed in the dry goods store of S. I' . Morse & Co. Ho is about forty years of ago. Fifteen years ago ho was married to a lady much younger than hlmselt , who has relatives now living in Glen- wood , la. For some time the pair have resided in Omaha happily to all appear ances. A year or two ago Mrs. Ilickox con ceived the Idea of studying to eon doctor. Her husband reluctantly consented to the projectbut gave in at hut and acrccd to give her all tlio help she needed. She bade him gooil bye and started for Cjii- cngo , where she entered tlio Chicago Homeopathic college. Here she studied diligently , relying for tlio payment of her expenses entirely upon the money her husband could send her. Kvery cent ho could spare , ho forwarded immediately to her. The conccqtienco was that she was able to pursue her studies with plenty of money , and took a complete nnd thorough course. About three weeks ago she wrote her husband that she would soon graduate and receive her diploma. Shortly thereafter came an other letter which convoyed the news that iho had received her parchment. The husband , who , for so many months had been toiling and saving money that hie wife might receive her medical education , was almost beside himself in the joy at the prospect of hav ing her with him again , llo atonccscnt her a draft for $20 , to pay the expenses of her return homo. A day or so ago ho received a letter from his wife which completely stunned him. Tart of it read as follows : I received your letter to-day and am very thankful for tlio contents. Jiy tlio time this letter roaches you , I will be many miles away. It will bo no u-o tor you to hunt for me. because you will never Imd mo. 1 hope you will find some one more worthy of you than I nm. Nothing more has been heard of the woman and Mr. Ilickox is completely in the dark as to her whereabouts. He re alizes the fact that search for her is al most useless. Her relatives in Glenwood , it is said , know nothing as to where she is. WHIRLING AVATERS. Notes of tlio Great Flood Scenes ol nnvnHtatlnn. The Missouri river is falling steadily. There is through it a whi//.ing line that carries on its thread logs , ice , dirt , clay , mis , every species of filth and debris that thisrivor is noted for.

His wife nnd family are quartered in the ofl'icc of the Union I'acifio stables. They slept there last night. Their furniture is a wreck. Many curious conditions of affairs arc noticeable , scows in which are bedsteads , ( a rope holding the bobbing mass ) , sheds nore than half submerged in water with their roof partially covered with baskets drying clothes Happing on lines where all around is water , etc. , etc. Con cpicnous in the chaos of elements , is the tourist with his field glasses looking ai the swift flowing river and its burden ol debris.

Very few persons have an idea of the extensive alterations to bo made in the exposition building , n6cessary for the performances of grand opera by the National Onora company. A proscenium arch will bo constructed , stretching across the entire width of the hall. The stage to bo erected will be sixty-four foot deep , so as to give ample room for the setting and moving ot the elaborate scenery and the full space required for the company , numbering 300 people , The opening of the proscenium will be forty feet wide. In front of this the spffco required for the Theodore i'homns orchestra will bo 000 square feet. This will bring the first row of seals in the auditorium to almost the middle of the building. consequently the audience and the artists will bo brought in comparatively close prox imity as in other largo opera houses , and the effect will naturally bo , with the masses of this company , simply over whelmingly grand. How different the effect from when one or two singers stand nt one end of the vast hall nnd try to be hoard by an audience reaching to the extreme tremo other end. Every one who visitf these representations will bo astonlshec at the transformation which the exposi tion building will undergo. The sale o : tickets will commence on Wednesday April 0 , at the box ollico of the expositioi building. ' Invest in Lincoln.

A great deal of interest is centered in the sale of tlio well-known ISriggs tract , which Is announced for Wednesday , Thursday , Friday and Saturday of this week. Any written description of this beautiful property must of necessity fall far short of its real advantages , for it can only have justice done it by seeing the lay of the ground. This property was purchased lately by Krastus A. Itcnson , the capitalist , and C. K. Maync , the well-known real estate dealer , and as they then announced they will grade tiie slreetstroes set out and otherwise improve the beauty of thcplaco at onco. In honor of the former owner they have decided to name this choice addition union's PI.ACK. and in order to satisfy a number of pur chasers who desire to purchase before the property advanced in price out of their reach , the owners have decided to place about half of thc.se beautiful lots on the market for Wednesday , Thursday , Friday anil Saturday of this week only at $1,000 to f 1,500 , and on Monday morning to advance the prices to nearly their real valuo. When it is considered that Hrigg's Place lies on that beautiful ground just west of Thirty-ninth street and that Harney , Farnam , Douglas'Dodge streets , Capitol avenue and Davenport street all run through it , nnd that lots in the block immediately east of Uripg's Plaeo only this week sold for as high as $3,500 , the price for lots in Hrigg's Place at if 1,000 to $1,500 is so cheap that none will hesi tate to buy. These lots will not be sold on contract , but only one-third casli will be required and a warrantee deed will bo given with every purchase. Ono thing is certain and that is , let THE CAULK LINK pro up Harney , Farnam Douglas , Dodge , Davenport or Capital avenue. Hrigs's ' Place will reap the benelit , and as the cable line is sure to go on one of these streets before fall a cable line to Brigg's Place is an assured fact. Mr , Benson will build fifteen to twenty houses in Hrigg's Place wortli all the way from $1,500 to $2,000 , contracts for the building of which will bo let just as soon as the architects can get the plans ready. This together witli the fact that the grad ing nnd setting out of trees will bo commenced as soon as one- half the lots are sold will make Brjugs' Place one of the most attractive building sites in the city. The four days sale this week is liable to bo pretty gen erally taken advantage of by every one who knows anything of West Farnr.m street and its prospects. Free carriages will bo ready for conveying parties out to Uriggs' Place any day this wceK from the oflicos of the C. E. Mayno Ueal Es tate and Trust company , at the north west corner of Fifteenth and Hnrnoy , and those who want a lot nt less than half its actual value can secure it. The South Omaha Land company have ippointeu C. E. Maync sole agent for the sale of their lots. Ho will show the prop erty and furnish all desired information ipon application. [ Signed ] W. A. PAXTON , President. ODDS AND ENDP. Stray Leaves From a Importer's Note Dook. Arthur Huss is the name of a newspa per man well known in Omaha , having worked here for several months , He is now in Chicago. A fellow journalist of his , from tlio City on the Lake , tells a story on him , which is rather too rich to keep. Some time ago Huss conceived : tie idea that it would be a splendid thing to write up the Bridewell in " Chicago , as it" appeared to a criminal on the inside. Ho ac cordingly applied to M. E. Stone of the News , unfolded his plan and agreed to furnish a five-column article on the Bridewell for $50. His plan was to have himself arrested for some offence , pass into the Bridewell as a prisoner , secure bis data and write the article after his re lease. Accordingly ho went over on the North Side and smashed in a big window , was arrested , lined and sentenced to the Bridewell for thirty days. Of course the success of his scheme depended partially upon the keepers of the Bridownll not finding out that lie was a newspaper man. But in some mysterious way the jailers discovered who ho was , and divining his purpose in entering the Bridewell , they proceeded to make life a burden for him. The iiardcst and most disagreeable work was assigned him , and it he fulled to perform it quickly ho was treated ns only n prisoner in the Bridewell can be treated. Ho managed to stand ten days of this torture. Then he sent for Stone and begged that gen tleman to secure his release.- Stone paid his line nnd Huss was a free man. He wrote up the article and secured his pay. But it was n long time before ho found out why his experience in the Bridewell had been such a harsh and bitter one. * * "If I wasn't so busy these days , " said William A. Watson , the well-known Har ney street horsoshocr , "I could show you some curiosities that is , if you are anj way interested in horse-racing. I hare shod some of the fastest horses in the country , and I always made it a1 point tc keep the old shoes , those particular ) ] that wore worn in big races when fnsl time was made. I have labeled them will : day , date and time , and I think there arc seventy-live altogether , includinc shoes worn by Jay Eye See , Harry wilkcs , Phallas ; Maud S.Maxoy Cobb and a liosl of others.

A saloonkeeper oul at Denver offered mo $100 once for them , but 1 refused , " * "Yes , " remarked an old typographei yesterday , "I think we have selected two good men to represent us in the Buffalo convention and 1 fool certain they will do the Omaha craft honor. 'Jase' Lewis fs an old Omaha boy even if ho was born in San Francisco. He learned his business here and although 11 young man , has made himself forcibly felt on sovcral occasions. 1 think he will bo heard from in Buffalo Gunzo lus , too , is no ordinary young follow. I is true ho has not lived here very long but since coming to Omaha ho has madi himself very popular. Like Lewis , ho It capable in everv way and quite a good , sound talker.
