Teller has a law office-in Denver , nnd also n big ranch near Pueblo. Bowon's interests are in mines , nnd ho once told me that a man never got wealthy selling postage stamps , and that if lip wanted to rnaHo a fortune he must strike for big game It wns in this way thn Bowen hns made what ho has , and ho is said to bo wealthy. Ho rode hero from Arkansas a poor mnn and for seven years worked a group'of claims in com pany with others in n corporation known as the San Juan Mining company. It is aid the company was badly managed aud its stock got down very low. Bowen saw that there wns money m its mines and in 1881 its shares were played for a poker in Del Norto at the rate of two drinks a share. Bowen quietly bough them up , getting , it is said , $300,00 : worth of stock for f 75. Ho soon go control of the stock. Ho pushed the work , soon struck a rich lead , and thus made a fortune. Ho paid his debts , am I am told ho is Interested in the stann mill which has since been erected near his mine.

WING GET HAS TAKEN FLIGHT iho Ourioua and Amusing Fnnoral of an Omaha Ohinamau , AN UNKNOWN'S VIOLENT FATE. A Supposed Tramp's Horrible Dentil On tbo itallway Track A Now Inquest Over Ucorglana Claik Other Local. A Chlncae Funeral. Omaha has never seen n funeral llko ho ono that occured yesterday just when ho storm king and the sinking sun wcro disputing ill the heavens for a mas- ory. It was a quiet procession in which Vlng Got , a Chinaman , occuplnd the irst carnage. Wing had taken wings to ho ctheroiil atmosphere , and as Doctor talph had given a mortuary certificate , t is probable ho got there. Wing wus a aundrj- man and worked for Wnh Luo it No. 1013 Ilarnoy street. On Monday ast ho became sick and was removed to ho Child's hospital. There ho remained tntll death gave him ticket of luavo. lu was lifty-threo yours of Mgo and loft a vidow and two children , now residing in Rock Springs , Wyo. Thither his remains were Hunt lust night in H metallic casket costing | 150. In the days to come Wing's osseous remains will probably sail the sens over for a final resting place m China. The funeral of Wing ( Jot was a solemn ono. Market , the undertaker , load the ) rocc9sion , four carriages containing > rieutals followed. At the depot thefol- owing pall bearers lifted tlio remains rom the hearse : Wnh Leo , Song Gay , iVing Leo , Ati Leo , San Gong and Ah l-'o. Riding on the hcarso was Go Cnung Tong , the nigh priest of ho Masonic order of Chinamen in tlio west. This high official distributed small pieces of perforated paper along ho route for the purpose of "keepingthe devil away , " for while "ho" would bo ticking them up , the remains of Wong jet would bo gaining ground in the chase. There was no ceremony at the iepot. Wong Got expired Tuesday evening. Mrs. Moore , matron of the lospitai , RavH " that he was conscious up to near the "time of dissolution. She called Rev. John Williams , to his jodsido. In the meantime the "China " in their " " boys" brought "priest , who opened bv shaking his fist in the ace of the dying man throe times. This wns because Wong ( Sot had boon a reno- ; ade to his religion in having his queue cut oil' . Then the remains were removed to H. L. liurkcU'f ) undertaking establish ment on Sixteenth street , and there the Chinese wake commenced. First the de ceased was .wrapped in a red blanket. Then fifty-three little rockets were tired off in significance of the years of Wong's ifo. Afterwards ono of the most ludi crous all-round dances over seen in tliow mrla was indulged in by the "China joys. " The red blanket was then taken off and the mourners adjourned. Karly yesterday morning the friends of the deceased wore on hand in 'orco. They pldTikcd down $150 'or the casket but insisted on a contribu- ion of 25 cents to pay Wlug'H ferriage 'across tlio Styx. " A roast chicken was hon produced and disontrailed. Fifty- .hreo portions of the fowl were taken out ind burned. Then the nil around busi ness commenced again. Some black nnd white cloth was torn Into strips. The ilgh priest put n fragment on his Imtand : ho others followed suit , while the body was being removed to the hoarse. Fifty- ; hrco candles wore kept burning as the > rooossion moved out , and it required : ho efforts of a stalwart policeman to scop the curious away from the car riages. Wing Got wns very popular among "hiiisimon' hero. Ho came here from Norfolk , Nebraska , n short tlmo ago whore ho conducted a laundry. His de cease is regretted among his nationality licro but its effect on the olty in not noticeable. Ono incident should be mentioned , however , and that is in re gard to the Chinese foresight. A bottle of whisky safely wranped up in an old cloth was placed In Wing Get's cofhn , so that in case there would be a switch-oft' to Iowa even the dead man might hare a chance. _ GHOUND TO ATOMS. An Inbound IT. 1 * . Train Kill * an Un known Man Imsl Nlulit. The regular freight train on the Union Pacific , driven by Engineer Martin Cushing - ing in engine No. 53 , and duo here at 10 o'clock last night , ran down and killed an unknown man just west of the city. The first intimation of the accident was obtained in the discovery by the crew in the caboose of blood on the wheels. The train was halted and slowly rim back over a trail of blood and shreds , of cloth ing until it terminated in the body of a man who had been literally cut to pieces and was wholly unrecognizable. The trainmen hastily gathered the greater portion of the remains into a basket , and on reaching the city the fruc- rnonts wore turned over to the coroner. There is no clew whatever to the iden tity of the unfortunate man but one of the theories is that ho was a Iramp steal ing a ride. There were Ciriety-six cars on the train , and it supposed that nearly all of those passed , over him. AMOTHBU INQUEST. Coroner Drczcl to Reconvene the Goorglana Clark Jury. Coroner Drexel , aroused by the results of the misguidance ho suffered through the police , has determined to learn the fate of Goorgiana Clark , the colored woman who died in jail Tuesday morn ing , if it requires n week of effort. Ho keenly feels the reproach which , through 110 fault of his , attaches to the conduct of the case , and will spare no means of learning the truth. To that end ho will reconvene the jury this morning , providing substitutes , however , for the "lly cop" nnd another "connection" of the police who figured on the original panel , and will view the body just before the funeral which oc curs at 10 o'clock. The inquest proper will begin at 12 o'clock in the afternoon nnd if necessary will bo continued from day to day until the last possible source of information is exhausted. All kinds of rumors are rife about the matter , the very latest ono being that the woman was subject to frequent beatings nnd thumping * at the hands of her man and keeper , John W. Fielding. It is said that last Saturday he g4vo her an un merciful drubbing , which may after all account for her wounds and bruises. An autopsy was held yesterday , but the physicians withhold the announce ment of their judgment until called upon to testify. WYOMING'S CRIMINALS. Tlio Territory Reeking a Prison For Its Malfaotori. Among the arrivals at the Allllard yes terday were Colonel Lulo Murrin , tbu big , full-faced , good-natured penitentiary commissioner of Wyoming , Judge Ma- ginnls of the same , nnd K. C. Morns , the official stenographer of tbo territory. These gentlemen had come in from Sun Dance , where tbo judge h.ad held court and sentenced a couple of tough pus- tomors to the penitentiary lone enough to enable them to' turn their hair white nnjl Improve their morals. The judge Is n young man and boars his judicial honors with becoming case nnd modesty. Colonel Murrin Hayg flint the territory of Wyoming Is no w < compelled to keep Its convicts nt horutf. Until n short time ngo it used to send them to Jollot , 111. , i - . ! . _ . . . _ H- . . > - . . where they were upportcd \vlthont ox- iionso. Last sp.rmr ! the stale estopped the penitentiary , Trom receiving nny more convleU fonlaboring purposes , nnd as a consequence Wyoming was com pelled to look ' dliowhcre to shelter her outlaws. Mr. 5 Murrin went to Lincoln where bo was also de clined admission' , "for his criminals. This compelled him to keep his convicts at home , nnd ns n consequence the outlaws have been apportioned among the several county jails in the ter ritory. The territory Is now represented in Lincoln by live convicts , mostly stage robbers , sevcnty-ono in Jollot , some of whom are murderers , while in the county jails mentioned , there have been since the now order of things twenty-two touchs confined. Colonel Murrin and party will leave for homo to-morrow. They have traveled about cloven hundred mile's to attend the court they have just returned from , notwithstanding they are feeling in excellent condition. Funeral or Kdmunil r/ane. The funeral of Edmund Lane , of the Omaha Nob. , calvary commandry of Knights Templar , took place yesterday nftornoon. The cortoco arrived at Ma sonic temple shortly after 4 o'clock , where the impressive services of the Ma sonic order were hold , conducted by Canon Paterson , Among the floral tributes which wcro many and beautiful , particularly noticeable wore the "Gates Ajar , " surmounted by n dove with cx- tended wings , the gift of the engineer do- partmcnt of the Union Pacific In which the deceased served for the past seven teen years , and llowory star , presented by the Eastern Star ledge of which ho was a member. After private ceremonies symbolizing the mvstcricH of death ac cording to the Masoniarltual. In an ante'- room , public services were hold m the laruo hall. The remains wcro then borne to Pros pect Hill cemetery where the interment took place. The various orders of whien the deceased was a member , the Knights Templar mounted in full dress uniform. formed a procession at the temple aiid headed by the Union Pacilio brass baud escorted the funeral to the cemetery. The guards of honor were Sirs William Franco , II. L. Sowurd , J. 13. Brunor and Allen 13. Smith. The pall bearers com prised n deputation of Master Masons. Railroad Notes. The Baltimore & Ohio railroad has opened an office in Hollmnn's building , on the corner of Farnam and Thirteenth streets , and placed it in charge of C. T. Wright and J. K. Miiicr. The managers hope to receive a goodly share of busi ness for their road , -Especially for distant points. - ] J The following officers and directors of the Omaha & Yankton road have been been elected to sorvejuntil next January : Harvey N. Shupanl , of Boston ; T. Fnles Gray , of Boston ; Gilbert II. Shepard , of Jacksonville , Flal ; "sS. U. Mercer , of Omaha ; John A. (5r ighton , of Omaha ; Nathan Shulton , o > Oniuha ; and James F. Dillon , of * Omaha , directors. President , Harvey N Shepard ; vice pres ident , S. D. Morcerl treasurer. T. Fains Gray ; scerctarv , J 11411 cs li. Djllon. The intention of this rouiMs to build into Da kota , first reaching Yanklon , after which it will likely branch out into difierent directions to the extremities of the ter ritory. With regard , trf'.tbo ' definite aim of the road little is at present known , al though some of the directors look for an extensive system in less than two years. There scums to be a great deal of doubt among the patrons of Lake Man- own as to whether the motor line which now connects that resort with Council Bluffs is adequate for the work required of it. Because , of this doubt it has been thought advisable to supply a more reli able nnd expeditious method of reaching the lake and the plan now under dis cussion is a broad guage track leading from the Union Pacilio transfer through the Union Pacilio territory at that point and thence along two of the streets in the southwestern part of the city to the resort. Mr. Day , of the Blulfs , who Is contemplating biiildin" the road , came to Omaha yesterday for the purpose of ask ing about the light of way through the Union Pacific grounds mentioned , nnd at the sumo time outlined his intention to the Union Pacific ouTcials. The descrip tion of the property of the latter will bo looked up with respect to this matter , when another meeting will bo held. If hiich a line were established , it would enable - able the switching of whole loads ot ex cursionists from this side , who would thus bo able to save a great deal of time. Besides the broad guage would make better time under all circumstances. The rumor circulated some Unit ; ngO that W. H. Barns , general ag < * 7it nt the Blufl's , hail been asked to resign , seems to have been without foundation , because yesterday his jurisdiction was extended to include all employes at the Broadway and trausfai ; stations , as also to all em ployes i the transportation department in the bluffs. The following circular issued from Union Pacific headquarters seems to of ficially solve the question ot Mr. Kim- ball's disposition . in the impending changes : ' 'Mr. Thomas L. Kimball is appointed assistant to the first vice presi dent with headquarters at Omaha. The oflino of general traffic manager is hereby abolished. This circular win take effect on September t , 1837. " J. D. Bossier , general superintendent of the Chicago , Burlington it Quincy ; W. C. Hrown , superintendent of the Iowa division of the same road ; George Smith , chief engineer , and his assistant , Frank Lrwler , came in on the "Q. " Yesterday as far as Pacific Junction.

Mrs. Swan- see is a poor woman , "but scraped to gether 1 150 to pay for 'the lot.

Deputy United Stales Marshal Allen left last night for the Sacs and Fox res ervation in Richardson county to bring hero for trial the halfbrecd murderer , William Barada. The murdered roan was also a halfbrced Indian named John Diedcr , The crime was committed last Sunday , while the two wore on a drunken spree in company with other halfbrecds.

QUEEN VIC HELD UP. ttafTalo Dill Makes Her Throw Up Her Handfl and Sign Young Kanjtor'a Now York Journal : No. 1,333 , alias Mutual District Messenger Sanger , is having all sorts of thrilling adven tures in London , lie is theboy who was sent over to deliver souven irs of "The Highest Bidder" to eminent professionals like Buffalo Bill and Henry Irving. The British government was highly wroth at the audacity of this young Yan- kco in stealing $25 out of the British treasury. For that's what his exrndition meant. Ho was to deliver 500 missives each of which should have had a five- cent stamp on it. Such a diminution of the government's prospcctivo revenue could not be toler ated , more especially us a deficit with visions of Lord Randolph sneering and jibing , stared the most noble Marquis of Salisbury In the face. So when 1,223 appeared in his natty blue uniform running about the London lanes ho wns promptly gathered into Bow street. The cable was soon bur dened with messages. Everybody who had influence wns implorcl to exert lion Sanger's behalf. A prominent lobbyist posted to Washington nnd poured the boy's tale of woo into the president's car. Grovcr said it was too bad and promised to open a diplomatic correspondence on the youngster's behalf. Ho declined , however , to declare instant war upon Her Britannic Majesty. Not wishing Sanger to languish in a British dungeon till his hair became grayer or paralysis nttackek his legs , as In Bid- well's case , his employers cabled n pa thetic appeal to the Hon. William Cody. Ho quickly had the Dondwook coach inspanued and with n cowboy escort dashed away to Windsor. The beefeaters were thrown into con vulsions by the hero's dread presence nnd , fulling at his feet , implored mercy. Not delaying longer than was necessary , the gallant William strode into Victoria's boudoir and ordered her majesty to throw up her hands. "Sangor must bo freed at once , " de clared the Monarch of the Prairie. The queen consented and ho allowed her to take down her right hand long enough to sign a free pardon. Then ho turned on his heel and was soon flying to the How street dungeon. Great was 1,222's Joy when once more ho wns allowed to behold the glorious sunshine ( the fog lilted long enough to give him one peep ) and ho overwhelmed the modest Bill with his gratitude. The rest of tlio day wns spent in delivering the souvenirs from the Deadwood coach. Captain Man Norman , of Ctit-ofl lake , has just placed throe line sail boats to his fleet manufactured by A. Kihlbcrg , nn old ship builder just located at 1710 S. 13th street. ' TEXAS JACK'S GRAVE. Tbo Tootnbstone Above It Would II nvo Suited III in ton Hot.

The jrnvo is that of Texas Jack , lie had many points In common with his fallow-showman from tho' plains. They both took seats In the local legislatures , mid both tacked the iircgv ltllon. " to their common overy-day legal names. They both wore known the country over by their cowboy nicknames , and they wore the twin deities to the small boy with an Indian-killing weakness. In Ponio respects the Hon. J. H. Omohuiidro was a better stngo subject than the Hon. William Cody. Ho could orate , nnd llllo.d out a border drama In line style , [ lu came cast , nnd mot Morlacchl , the famous dancer. It was n love match be tween the rough-and-ready dashing buck rider and the Italian woman , trained m thu school of La Scala. She little dreamed who was to meet her fate wheu she came as the queen of the ballet to fill engagements In tills country. The two loved , the gallant border swain nud the warm-blooded , dark-eyed Italian sylph. They married and could not enjoy each other's society enough. It was whllo filling nn engagement in this pneumonia city that Texas Jnek wont the way of n majority of the ! ) .300 who lie about him , and ho succumbed to the dread lung trouble.
