The Coroner's So nip.
Jfcstcrtlay morning C. B. Western found
A dead man lying In Hanscom park near
the soutliwost corner of the enclosure.
Coroner Drcxcl was notified , droro out
and brought in the remains , They wcro
thoao of a man about thirty-years of ago.
Ho had a full face , a blonde mus
tache and regular features. Ho would
\voigh about ono hundred and sixty-five
pounds. He wore a wine-colored suit of
clothes , with a dotted sliilt , low shoes
and red striped stockings. In searching
the dead man's pockets the coroner
found a pocket book , an Apache scalp
and a letter addressed to himself. In
the pocket book wcro n number
of cards of sporting houses
in California with tresses of fair maido.is
which ho had doubtless taken as a proof
of conquests and two certificates of pro
motion as cornoral in company F , Sev
enth United States cavalry , and I troop
In the First cavalry , dated respectively
August 18 , 1874 and 1870. There was also
a discharge from the Third regular in
fantry dated May 21 , 1870 , and made
on in tno narao of William G. Wallace.
The scalp was an excellent specimen , the
lock Doing about fourteen inches In
length and the ilesh pluto nearly two
Inches in dlamoter. The hair is as black
as ebony , and the freshness of the skin is
conclusive that it was but recently taken
from some luckless aborigine. The letter
bore the following inscription :
COUO.VEH , Doujtlas County ,
Omaha , Nob.
The envelope was stamped , the intent
being to have it go through the post-
oflico. The coroner , however , received
the letter without the Assistance of the
mails. On being opened the letter read
as follows :
OMAHA , Aueust 17. To the Coroner : It Is
needless to hold an Inquest over my body , as
1 dlo by tny own hand by taking morphine.
I do not want to bo buried. 1 give my body
to the Medical Institute of Omaha for the
benefit of science , and 1 do wish they would
take my body and dissect It , for I know I
havn a curious brain. My name Is John W.
Wallace. 1 have no friends
relation that cares tor me , so 1 give my
Br for the bcnellt of science.
I will ask the coroner to please deliver the
letter you will find on my body to Its address
and oblige my last request on eaith.
On the reverse of the last page the fol
lowing was penciled in a fair hand like
that on the other pages :
Please give this pncketbook to Miss Lulu
She is an Inmate of French Emma , 107 North
Twelfth street , Omaha.
In accordance with the wish of the deceased -
ceased the coroner will turn the former's
remains over to the medical college.

NEARLY DONE ,
The carpenters and painters who have for some weeks past had pos
session of our tipper floors , are about finished , and we are happy testate
state we shall in the near future , open all our floors tor business. The
elegant passenger elevator we are now tmtting in will make access to
the upper floors easy. The tremendous increase in our business since
'we opened , has induced us to make preparations for the coming season - '
son on a gigantic scale. We are now having manufactured , and will
soon have on exhibitioni the handsomest and richest lines of Fall and
Winter goods , and when everything is ready , we shall show a stock of
mens' and boys' clothing second to none in the country.
In addition to our clothing and furnishing goods , we shall , in a few
days , open a complete line of hats. This department will occupy the
rear of the second floor , and will contain a larger stock than any hat
house in the city. As the goods will be all new , we shall only show
the latest styles , and we shall sell them with the same low margin pf
profit as we do all our other goods.
All goods marked in plain figures and at strictly one price at
