One of llio most during attempts nt
btirglury tliitt has boon known in thu
city wus madu List night nbottt 9 o'clock
nt St. i'hilomcna's cathedral nn Ninth
street. During the wogross of the ser
vices in the church , tnu sexton , James
Mulcaliey , stopped inside the sacristy in
discharge of kin duties tuid was aston
ished to tind a burglar at work remov
ing the golden and silver chalices from
the vault in which they are keut. Mr.
Mulcahoy seized him by the coat collar
and was just going to call for help when
a revolver was placed against his heael
anil ho was told tha' he would bo killed
if lie said a word. In his alarm ho re
leased his hold and tha burglar etisap-
Kjarcel thn ugh the open window by
vhlch bo lu.d g . 'mod access to the apart-
nonl. Mr. Mulcahoy at once gave the
\larm and Detective Ormsby , ot the po-
ice force , was detailed on the case. From
ho sexton's description Ormsby spotted
Jharles Wilson , a well known cracks
man , and wenlatter him , lie found his
nan in Nick Wallace's notorious den on
) ouglas street and placed him uneteir ar-
cat. On his person was found n chisel
which he had used in prying un the
window through which ho had effected
n entrance into the church. Wilson , of
innrcio , denied his guilt , but the sexton
dontilies him and ways there can bo no
juestion about his being the man. Wil-
on , it will bo remembered , is the crook
vho was caught by Captain Cormick two
nonths ago while hiding a set of burglar
eels tintle'r the sidewalk on Howard
street. Ho lias just been released from

or. Ho is a crook of tlio

Ettre a case against him us they have

jurglary is astonishing. Services were

DOUG10 GUT THE CABLE.
Properly Owners Say Yes Cable
Polks Answer Kvnslvoly.
The directors of the Omaha Cable
Tramway company spent tlio afternoon
yesterday in a business session at the
ollico of the Union Loan and Trust com
pany. Reports that began to issue from
.he place of meeting early in the session
sot the real estate men of the city all
agog , and at work upon deals that worn-
sod a spceely return of millions. Evcr.v
man who owned property on Dodge
street from Ninth to Thirty-sixth streol
was approached by the enterprising real
estate agents and Oasked to place ti
irico upon his property whethci
t was on the market or not ,
The report gained currency and was up
parcntly reasonably well confirmed thai
the company had decided to locate one
of their lines on Dodge street from Nintl
street west. It was announced that the
company would begin delivering material
to-day for the construction of the Dotlgc
street line west from Ninth street tc
Twentieth. It was also currently re
ported that a line will bo built on Hurnoj
street to tlio western and southwestern
portion of the city.
Members of the cable company , how
ever , deny that any decision has been ar
rived at. Mr. L. 15. Williams , when
uestiojied concoriiinjr tlio matter , stated
hat the meeting of the di
rect qn * had been for the
consideration of other important matters
and that really nothing hael boon done
regarding the matter ot location. /
committee has been considering the mat
ter and will call n meeting probably in r
very few days to report upon tlui matter ,
Notwithstanding these statements prop
erty owners on Dodge street are vorj
jubilant and have given out the impression
sion that they have been assured that the
cable company will locate a line on tha1
street.
TUB SALVATIONISTS.
The Council KocoiiNltlcra Its Action-
The Army at Ijarce.
The members of the Salvation Army
who were arrested on Wednesday nigh
for parading the streets in violation of t
resolution adopted by the council pro
hibiting tlio same , were released b *
Judge Stonbcrg yesterday , on their owl
recognizances , to appear for trial 01
Tuesday next. Last evening a detail o
the army made a skirmish , marched uj
Farnain street and down Douglas stroo
without nuisio and were consequent ! *
not disturbed by the authorities The :
have decided to make no further stree"
demonstrations until their case in cour
lias been decided. They have scctiroi
counsel nnd will demand a jury trial.
At the meeting ot the city council las
nitrht Mr. Goodman oll'orcd a resolutioi
culling for a reconsideration of the voti
instructing the marshal to prohibit tin
Salvationists from parading the streets
Mr. Kaspcr moved that Mr. Goodman'i
resolution bo laid upon the table. On i
yea and nay vote tlio motion was lost am
the mutter taken un for discussion. Coun
oilman Ford didn't ' want the council ti
backdown fron ? their position , "Pdhavi
a poorer openyin av the imlnount a-
common sinso there is in this council i
they back elown. Let tliim poapln gi
into a room with their prutchin' and sal
vashionism and not bo makin' liowlin
nooshances of thimsolvcs batin their tiui
bnrcens nnd poundin1 tlio dhrunis. "
Mr. Kaspar started a laugh by statiiij
that hu had just as much rohcion as an
member of tlio Salvation Army. Hi
makes his prayers in private , however
and does not go out in the streets am
cause runaways in the performance ) o
his devotional exorcises. Ho thought th
council ought to stand by their formo
notion at least until the case against th
Salvationists is decided in the courts.
Mr. lioodman thought the Salvationist
were no more 'of a nuisance than th
medicine men nnd other fakirs who ir.
test the street corners.
Mr. Lee eUdn't think the councilslioul
be it : a hurry about the. mutter as the
had succeeded in getting the case befor
the courts and made a motion which wa
attoptcd , referring the mutter to tlio con
initteu on police for one week.

Ulazei at South Oniuha.
A destructive lire oocurcd at the stock
yards yesterday afternoon. It broke out
about4:30 : o'clock , in the stockyards
barn , which is located at the southeast
corner of the ) yards , nt the side of the
switch track. It is supposed that a H. &
M. engine loft a kindling spark which
was fanned into a llamo and rapidly grow
to n destructive blaze. The inflammable !
material of which the barn was construc
ted and the still more inllammablc con
tents made so hot a lire that the bucket
brigade , although valiantly lighting it ,
Were unable to accomplish anything ,
except to prevent a more disastrous con
flagration. The fire department from
tins city responded as quickly as possible ,
arriving tliero in three quarters -of an
hour , and rendered elliciont assistance.
The burn , a largo and comparatively
now structure , was destroyed , with 400
tons of hay and 4,000 , bushels of corn.
The truck scales , dead hog scales and
several pens east of scale house No. _ 1 ,
were also burned. The scale house was
saved witn dilliculty. The Joss is cstiimi
ted at $15,000. ,

cssor of two orifices through which IK
cmitK vocal sounds. Some time ago hi
wns struck by a falling derrick and hi !
throat wus injured so that his windpipi
closed at its upper end. A SKilful sur
gionl operation placed a silver tube ir
the breath pipe nnd ho was saved fron
actually dying for lack of air. Sub
sequently. tlui orllico to his moutl

cither way. It is extremely ditlicult ti
appreciate to what extraordinary uses
Mr. Dopfor could not put his pcculia
power * . As n permanent police wlustl
lie could be a screeching success. Hi
could also drain a schooner of bee
"without taking breath" ns most pcopl
are obliged to to take it , because whil

AH SAY AND All THE11E.
A Chinese Nnmo That Antedates the
American Gag.
All Say , the big bos | Chinaman of the
district reached by Jthe Union Pacific ,
was in the city yesterday and last even
ing went west. He is accompanied by
his secretary , Ah There. The statement
of the gentleman who said that there
wus nothing new under the sun , is herein
voniied. Ah There is about thirty years
old and probably has .in his genealogical
line many ancestors who bore the sanu
name. Thus it is that would-be original
America is again put to shame by the
traditions of the heathen Chinese. Al :
Say lives at Evanston , Wyoming , an.l is
the proud father of four American born
boys and two girls. His wife is a verj
pretty -after the Chinnso style Monga
lian woman and Ah Say made a good pick
when ho went back to the celestial land
some eighteen years ago and secured her ,
Ah Say isn't ' pretty , but he is brainy and
rich , and ho controls 3,000 or4,000 China
men with a figurative rod of iron which
is only surpassed by the extraordinary
authority exorcised over them by the six
companies. Ho figured conspicuously in
connection with the "Lookco Splingeo'
or Hock Springs , in United States lan
guage riot on September 2 , 1885. lie is
the "bossco" to whom all of the China
men in the Union Pacific coal mines and
on the railroad sections between here
and Ogden look for instructions , and in
that critical time they sought iiis advice
with an unanimous spontaniuty thai
called out all his rosetrvu mental
powers , lln manifested his ability , how
ever , in a marked way , commanding the
Chinese.to keep away front the mines
until they were ollered military protect
ion. When the authority of thu regular
troops was established Ah Say told the
still terrified coolies , who had massed in
Evanston , to go back. There , probably ,
Avafii't ono Q them Avh'o wouldn't ' have ,
preferred to commit hari-kari to return
ing to the scone of tlio massacreo of thoit
companions , the dcstuction of theit
bouses Joss house and all and their
own precipitate rout ; but Ah Say issued
thu mandate , on pieces of red paper with
iv few hieroglyphics , nnd they bundled
into the box cars nnd went bsvck like so
many obedient pack mules..When . it come ;
to gilt-edge blindfolded obedience thu
heathen Chinuo is just as peculiar as lit
is for his tricks witli pasluhoard while
wearing the smilu which is child-liku anil
bland.
Ah Say had with him , last evening , sis
silk-coated celestials whom ho is con
ducting westward. Hu also had All
There. When anybody says "Ah there ! '

The Jewish I'aisovor.
To-day at sundown the Jews through
out the world will bonify the celebration
of the Faast of Passover , ordained b.
Moses nearly 3,500 yiMr ? ago. Throtigl
all the trials and persecutions and temp
tations that have besot and , sometimes ,
overcome that race hfyhis long lapse ol
time , this observance has over hold its
place among them and , " perhaps more
than any other festival in the calendar
has contributed to the preservation o
their national identlty..for . centuries , ami
of their principles of cruod and < worshii
even to this day. C'opiderpd slniplj
from thu point of views A > f historical in
terest there is something almost subliim
in the unwavering faille , anil constancy
with which the Juwshaviecommcmoratoi
the' exodus ot their fathers from Kgyp
tian bondage. These people have suf
fered , they have thriven , they have beet
exiled , they have boon slaughtered , thej
have witnessed the rise and fall of em
pires , they have seen thu extinction o
old races anil tlio birth of now races , si
lent and observant witnesses of thu Um
vorsal Arbiter who molds the destiny o
Individuals anil nations , Ihoy have
amid trials and oppressions unpreoe
dented , amid changes that no other raci
has been permitted to see , stood flrml :
and boldly before tlio nations as the wit
ness of the Deity and preserved the !
faith undimlnlshed and unimpaired.
Therefore , is it that the Jewish natlot
exists stronger , more numerous , inon
powerful , more respected than over before
fore , rising like a young giant fron
among the memories of the past , tri
umphant over the combined oppression
of Doworful nations long since dead jmt
still clinging to the banner , "Shemi
Yos'voot ' Adonay Klo'houn Adonay
ICchatl , " Hoar , O Israel , the Lord Our
.Tod , the Lord is One.

Her BITTKRS Mr . Co :
I know Hop Bitters will bear recommen
dation honestly. All who use them confer
the highest cconiums and give them
credit for making cures all the proprie
tors claim for them. I have kept them since
thcv were first offered to the public. They
took high rank from the first , and main
tained it , and arc more called for than all
others combined. So long as they keep up
their high reputation for purity and useful
ness I sliall continue to recommend them
something I have never done before with
any patent medicine. J. J. BAIJCOCK.
