Thcru U nit inter-nucino war among
the gamblers which promises to closu up
tlio houses in this city somu two months
before tlio now iiiitl-Kaiubliiig law ROCS
Into ( iflcct. This falling out has loml to
Homo Interesting and spicy revelations.
Yesterday morning William Sodcrstrom
of the linn of Sotlcrstrom , Brnckor &
Donnelly , who control two gambling
houses in tilts city , one at 130J Douglas
nnd tlio oilier at 1201 Tarnam street ,
was arraigned In police court , lie had
boon arrostcd at the instance
of Jack Morrison , who runs n gambling
house on Douglas street over llortibur-
gers saloon , the charge being that ho
( Sodurstrotn ) was allowing a "brace-box"
to bu used in his gambling house o.i
Douglas street. For tlio benefit of the
unliislructud , it might bo well to state
hero that ix "brace-box" is a faro-box , so
constructed that when the cards are dealt
from it , it is almost Impossible for the
player to win. Soclcrstrom , admits that
the'box is a "bnico" affair , but says a
square deck of cards has been dealt from
it , so that no attempt has been made to
' 'skin" the men who played against it.
When Sodcrstrom'g name was called ,
ho promptly jumped to his feet and an
nounced that he was ready for trial. It
appeared , however , that the prosecution
was not ready for trial and the case was
indelinitely postponed. Before sitting
down , however , Mr. Soderstrom turned
to his accuser , Jack Morrison , who was
standing near by and launched a bitter
invective at him. "This case , " ho said
is a piece of purely malicious persecution
on the part of this mau Morrison. I am
ready right hero and now to go on with
this trial , single-handed and alone ,
against Morrison , his lawyers and his
witnesses. I want to say right
now that I am ready to go on the witness
stand at once and swear thntl have never
played a crooked game in this city , never
turned a crooked cardand never skinned
iv man in any way. I'll go on the stand
and swear to it this minute , if Mr. Mor
risen thinks ho can do the same thing. If
I commit perjury , in swearing that way ,
I am willing to take the consequences , if
Mr. Morrison will do tlio same. lint I
know that ho won't. That man has been
dealing acrooked game eversinco ho oamo
to this city. Never a month has passed
over his head that ho hasn't boon inter
ested in skinning somebody. Ho had a
brace game established in a gambling
house on Douglas street and did so for
two reasons. One was that he wanted to
kill the house , and the other was that Ho
wanted to get a slice of the money of
which the mou who played in that place
were robbed , lie's tv line man to accuse
mo of dishonest dealing ! I can
prove that ho furnished up a house
on Thirteenth street below Farnam
two years ago , as a crooked joint , into
which suckers were steered and then
fleeced. Ho ran this place until Mayor
lloyd ordered it closed. Why , within the
past two weeks ho has. discharged dealers
from his ulaco because they wouldn't
Bhuflln the cards so that the player
couldn't win. "
Mr. Sodorstrom continued m this
strain for for some time , growing quite
eloquent at times. Mr. Morrison said
nothing in reply.
Mr. boderstrom was seen at his place
of business by a reporter of the BHK yes
terday. " 1 talked rather bitterly this
morning , in police court , " he said , "but
lean prove all I said. I expected the judge
would stop me , but ho didn't. It was
lust as well , I told nothing but the
truth. "
"Is it true that you intend to close up
your two places ? " was asked of him.
"Yes , wo shall close up both of houses
to-day. And if the other places attempt
to run , wo shall see that they are closed
up too. There is a law on the statute
books which makcj gambling punisha
ble by a fine ot not less than
$50 and not less than thirty days impris
onment in jail. Wo shall see that this
law is enforced until the new ouo goes
into effect. "
"Is it true that the box Morrison ob
jected to was a brace box ? "
"It may or may not be ; I never exam
ined it. I know that a square dock of
cards has been dealt from It. 11 is the
same box that Dan Allen and Goodloy
Bruckcr used liftcen years ago. "
Mr. Sodorstrom says that under no
circumstances will he compromise the
matter. Ho claims that Jack Morrison
has had a spite against him for years because
cause ho had a better reputation and did
n bettor business than ho ( Morrison ) did.
Ho says that on Saturday night , when
Morrison made the accusation that the
if house at 1803 Doughis was using a "brace
box , " his ( Morrison's ) place had lost
f 050. The man who won this had also
won about $100 at Higgins' , but
lost about $ -100 at Sodorstrom ,
Bruckor & Donnelly's house.
Tins , Mr. Soderstrom says , made
Morrison frantic and so incensed him
t' that ho attacked the honesty Of their
t'H manner of dealing.
H It is probahlo that more interesting de
velopments , about the crooked dealing
that has been going on here , will follow
from those first disclosures. At any rate ,
it is certain that the local gambling
Iff
houses will probably bo closed if tSodcr-
I ( t Strom carries out his threats.

A PERMANENT STAGE.
The Exposition Directors will Itun a
Mammoth Opera House.
The directors of the exposition build
ing have decided to allow the stage
which has boon built in the east end of
the structure to remain just as it is ,
and will not take it out at the conclusion
of the programme by the American
Opera company. They propose to make
it not only the largest stage in the west ,
but one of the most thoroughly appointed.
With this end in view they have
ordered from Slocumb & Lan-
dis , the scone painters of Chicago
cage , several elegant Fcts of
sconory. which will bo rushed through
as soon as possible. Tno present cur
tain that to bo used during the per
formances of the American Opcnv com
pany will bo used.
Thus the structure will be converted
nto a mammoth theatre , which can bo
uspd on the occasion of concerts , oper
atic performances , lectures , sporting ex
hibitions , etc. . etc. The bicycle races
which have hitherto been hold on this
track , will probably bo hold there no
more. The fair grounds track will soon
bo in shape for the spring and summer
races. _

A COCKING MAIN ,
Some Interesting Sport In a Subitr-
ban Kcsort.
Lovers of cock-lighting were treated
to a good exhibition of the sport Sun
day afternoon in a well-known suburban
resort. There were four battles each
one for $10 a side. Besides , considerable
money changed hands among the spec
tators on the results of the various bat
tles.
tles.The
The first fight was between two black-
breasted reds one of whom was killed
after four or live savage flys.
The second light called out a black-
breasted red and a gray. This was a
short and tame battle , the gray turning
tail after a few minutes' lighting.
Another fight between two black-
breasted rods resulted In the same way.
The fourth battle was between two
black-breasted reds , each weighing four
pounds and two ounces. Both birds
were game and' determined to win , and
the battle was one of tlio most furious
and bloody over witnessed in this city.
After siv or eight llys It resulted in ono
of the birds being killed.
Paper Teeth An advertisement of
paper teeth has not yet appeared in the
papers , but it is quite possible that there
will be one in the next number , so keep a
bright lookout. Paper teeth are sold by
the quire , and they are warranted not to
ache : once fixed in the mouth and well
gummed , they remain stationary ; the
run at present is on ivory and cream-laid.

ish specimen of the English dude re-
narked : "This is perfectly 'orrid ,

Many Omaha people have lately seen
walking about the streets a tall , thin
gaunt old woman , wretchedly clad and
with a face on which rests a perpetual
air of anxiety. She is an old Gormanand

ng over the despicable manner in which

Agent. She had saved up money , month
by month , which she had paid in install
ments on a lot purchased from a real estate
owner. In the meantime the agent had
sold the lot to the woman's son without
receiving any consideration for the same.
tMter the woman had paid up the full
iraltic of the lot , the agent palmed off on
tier a deed made jointly to her son and
lierself. The former , who is a dcssoluto

Some days ago it was reported that a
man named Lomick , of Iowa , was
robbed of n gold watch nnd $123 in
monoy. Satisfactory evidence has been
produced to show that this is not Michael
Lomick , a well-known resident of Ores-
, on , la. The latter was iu this city about
.ho time mentioned , but merely to at
tend the Knights of Pythias' ball. Ho
lad a watch witli himand lias it yet , nnd
xlso a small amount ot money. No nt-
: empt was made to rob him , neither was
10 with any poisons of bad diameter
ivho would attempt robbery. Ho natur
ally feels very angry about the matter
on account of his relatives in Crcslon nnd
this city. _
Judge Stenborp disposed of unimpor-
: ant police court business yesterday morn
ing , a miscellaneous assortment of
drunks and vagrants being disposed of.
Mary Gibson , better Known as "Skinny
Mary , " was tried on the charge of
robbing n man of $10. She was released ,
as there was not the slightest evidence
against her. -

EARLY SACRIFICE , X
A large eastern manufacturer , in order to close out a line of
nearly 1,000 Spring Overcoats * made us an offer at a figure so
low as to soarcelv cover cost of the material in the garments. '
We bought the entire lot in addition to our enormous regular
stock of these goods on hand. We had grave doubts as to wheth
er we could dispose of such a quantitv of Spring Overcoats in
time to accommodate our Summer Goods. In order to dispose
of them , immediate ! ? , we marked down the price of every spring
Overcoat in the house , to such unheard of prices as to force
sales. The sweeping reductions on these from our former prices
are as follows :
A line of Hancock Cassimere Overcoats , from $7 > 5O to $4.90
Grey * ' ' with silk
facing , . . . . from $11.OO to $8.5O
A line of all wool Meltons , from - - $13.00 to $9.75
A line of English Homespun cloth , a nobby
s t vie , with E atin sleeve-linings , from - & 13.7 5 to $10.5O
We have also reduced our finest imported
Meltons. This Over coat is silk lined all
through and the sleeves with satin , from
former price which was exceedingly low at $14.75 to $12.75
In making the above announcement , we beg to sav > that everv
garment is made up from the latest stvled fabrics and manu
factured for this spring season exclusively.
All goods are marked in plain figures and at striotlv one
price at the
