A reporter for the Ur.i : yesterday had a
talk with a loual passenger man on thn
intor-stato commerce law in its elFuet on
the theatrical profession. "I think , "
bald the railroad man"that unless some-
tiling is done to mitigate the severity , thu
new law will wreck the theatrical busi
ness of this country. It will have the
cfl'uet of driving out of the field the big
companies , who travel wltli heavy scen
ery and a large number of people , and
will help the smaller and weaker com
panies , whose expenses arc not nearly so
much. It may possibly revive the old
stock company system , but 1 doubt it.
il cannot be doubted but that the effect
of the law upon the profession will bo
most disastrous. "
"Will the railroads make any conces
sions to the theatrical profession which
will mitigate the severity of the law ? "
was asked of him.
"I don't know , " was the reply , "but I
think that they will. I believe that rep
resentatives of the different American
roads will soon meet and fix up some
scheme , by which theatrical companies
can start out next season with a show of
making some money. I do not believe
the commission itself can do anything.
Its powers , as I take it , do not extend be
yond the regulation of the long and short
haul clause. "

THE FAITH IN THEM.
The County Commissioners Tell Wh ;
They Accepted Myer * ' Plan.
County Commissioners O'Keofo an
Mount yesterday to took occasion ad
vanoesomo reasons why they accepted tli
plan for the county hospital proposed b
Mr. Myers , instead of these of cithc
CochrandorMcndcssohn& Lawrio. Con
mlssioncr Mount , referring to Mr. Met
rtclssohn's Interview in the BKE said : "II
( Mendelssohn ) says that I promised I
Ktiiy by him , all things being equa
That is true , and I stick to it still. I cli
pay I would stand by'any local architec
all thincs being equal. "
Mr. O'Kcefo said that he had been i
favor of Mr. Myers' plans the la
time as well as the first , because ho co
sidored them the best. At iirst Mendel
sohn'B was nothing but a lire trap , an
next his pavilion plan was inferior i
Myers' , with regard to the delay whic
had taken place over the first plans , tin
had been occasioned by their consider
tion of the matter and ultimate tr
to the cast , upon their return from whic
they saw that none of the plans shou
bo accepted. If , as Mr. Mendelssol
reasoned , that gentleman's plan w
worthy of only second place in the fit
competition , as ho had not changed h
plans all all , except to reduce them
size , and as Mr. Myers had chanced ai
greatly improved his fin > t ones , it ft
lowed that , in the last competition. M
Mendelssohn's plans were still entitled
but the second place.
Both commissioners then wont into
detailed explanation of the merits of t
Mover's plan. In the iirst place , t
building waa to bo lire-proof and the i
chitcct la to give n bond or fiO.OOO that
will bo completed within the cc
of $113.000 , and accommodn

and to bo of brick. Iu Mondelssohi
plan , the walls are not continuous a
in sonio of the basement roon
the walla above are to bo sv
ported by pillars. Besides
the luttor plan , the walls are of hoik
tile , which but invites dirt and filth. T
Hears throughout the building were to
of cement , resting upon brick arches si :
ported by iron girders. There was to I
jio wood wave possibly thn doors. T
closets were to be far removed from n
yet Tvith'n ' easy reach of each wai
Besides the excrement was to bo dri
mid burned , thus rendering sewers v
necessary. Again , the number of cul

the former , also , by the system of ventila
tion introduced , it was possible
to change the atmosphere of the entire
building every eight minutes. The cost
of Mr. Mendelssohn's plan would bo
1000.03 for every patient , while that of
Mr. Myers'was but * 57UO. The com
missioners claimed to have n hundred
reasons for the preference they had
shown for Mr. Myers' work.

THE I'LATTSMOUTH T1OKH.
How an Oinalmn Ducked Him In His
Ijtitr.
William Burbridgo , who kept a gam
bling room on Douglas street immedi
ately cast of the People's theater , was
arrested on Friday night by the sheriff of
Cass county. It seems that after selling
out his place to Bruckcr , Sodcrstrom &
Donnelly , Bin-bridge went to Chicago
and thence went to Plattsmouth , where
ho opened a gambling house on Main
street. He remained there a short time
and finally wont to South Omaha where
ho started into business again , leaving
there after a short time and again look
ing to Omaha , whore ho was trettini ;
ready to open another house on Twelfth
street between Douglas and Farnam. Ilo
was tiken : to Plattsmouth by the sheriff
where , late on Friday night , ho pleaded
guilty to the charge of running a gam
bling house. The court lined him $50
and co-its , amounting to ? ( JO. There
wore two counts against him iu the in
dictment , but tlio second ono was not
pressed , liurbriilire had but $11 in cash
which he deposited with the clerk , to
gether with a gold watch valued at $123.
That evening , it is understood that Bur-
bridge managed to meet a number of the
court attendants from the county to
gether with a few local sworts , over u
little private game , and rose from the
table winner b'y something over $200.
He redeemed his watcli and left the place
f 125 ahead , and is again in town.

A Narrow Escape.
Old railroad men who visited the wreck
on the Union Pacific at Waterloo on Sat
urday last , say that the condition of the
rolling stock after if got through break
ing itself into kindling wood , was the
worst that has been scon in an accident
around Omaha in many years. Five cars
were literally crushed into an unrecog
nizable mass of splinters. The engine
was imbedded in the ground and En
gineer Douglas and his fireman were
caught in the cab and , it was thought ,
beyond relief. As it was they hail to be
cut out of the wreck , when , strange to
say , it was found they Una not received
a scratch.

"I am only n young man , " said a well-

A certain young man in this city has
broken his engagement with a young
lady who resides in this city in the north
end. The sad affair happened in this
wise. The young gentleman aforesaid
attended a public ball the oilier night and
met a prctly girl by whose appearance he
was highly impressed. It was probably
nothing but a passing fancy ,
but he made himself intensely
agreeable lo her , and within
an hour of having made her acquaint-
mice , declared his lender affection for
her. The girl , who happened to bo a
servant working in the house next to the
ono in which tlio young man's betrothed
was domiciled , went homo in a high
fealher , elated at Iho conquest she had
made. The next day she confided lo Ihc
girl working in Ihc house of Ihc young
man's allianccd how she had mot ami
conquered Iho charming Mr. , and
how ho had promised lo lake her out
buggy-riding , elc. , elc. This was in turn
repealed by the girl to her mistress , who ,
it is hardly necessary to say , was horror-
stricken. She ru once wrote to the mi-
fortunate young man , declaring their
engagement broken. And now , "they
never speak , elc. "
HE DENIES IT.
Secretary Miner Says he did Not Htart
the Story.
The telegraph brings the news from
New York thai Washiiiglon Conner , the
celebrated Gotham banker , is frothing at
the mouth because some ono has cicu-
lalcd the slory that Manager Locke , of
American Opera company , could draw
upon him for an unlimited amount. Mr.
Connor declares that it would not be
safe for Mr. L. to assume anything of the
kind. Mr. Connor also declared to the
New York correspondent that Ihe report
was starled by a person named Miner ,
in Omaha.
As ibis doubtless refers to the secre
tary of the exposition association , a re
porter called upon Mr. Miner yesterday
and questioned him about the matter.
"Is it true that you starled any such
slory ! " was asked of him.
"No sir , I did not , . " Mr. Miner replied ,
'I have never said anything of the son.1'
"Have you any idea how your name
ivas connected with Ibis affair ? "
"No. What I did say was that Mr ,
.ock.fi could probably draw on Mr. Con-
: ior for $5,000 , and no more , and that is
all I did say about the matlcr. "

there being no one who could spare the
time lo slay with him. It was often
noticed thai Iho voices of Iwo persons
would be heard in his liltlo room. But
when those in charge entered ho would
bo apparently asleep.
One day they listened , being quite sure
that no onu was with the child , and they
overheard Ihis strange chonolo.nio ; :
"Is you rite there , mamma ? "
"Yes , my little boy , I is rite here. "
"Was you went away yet ? "

"I toldod him \l \ had a little boy named

There was n loud noise of sobbing then ,

"Yes , my boy. an' ho said 'bimcby ,

"Mamma , i'so so tired an' an'
