ip 8 THE OMAHA DAILY BEE : TUTESDAY , AUGUST 23 ; 1887 , , Sfff r m PARKER BEFORE THE COURT. The Robber of the Army Pay Wagon Ar raigned Before Judge Dandy , HE WAIVES EXAMINATION The Ilnito City Money I'ncknRO The Xlio noftrtl of Education Wnntsj Money South Omaha Nowa Local Affairs. Parker Waives Gxnmlnatlon. Clmrlcs Parker , nllns Jim Harris , tlio notorious road agent , who hold up United States paymaster , Major Hash , between Forts Fettcrman and McKinney - noy in Marcii last , ns was reported in yesterday's BEK was arraigned before Judge Dundy yesterday , and waiving examination , was placed under $7,500 bonds. If these are not furnished witliin five days ho is to bo delivered over into the custody of the United States marshal of the territory of Wyoming. In the mean time ho is lodged in the Douglas county jail. Sheriff J. Ii. Doano , of Logan county the brave oflieor who , unarmed and ntono , attacked and , after a desperate Btrugglo , succeeded in arresting this desperate robber and highway man , was hero yesterday as a witness. Parker's waiving examination , however , precluded his testifying , but he told the BEE of all the thrilling circum stances connected with the arrest , and gave him all the information in his DOS- session bearing upon Parker's history. The night of his arrest ho was kept under a heavy guard , armed with Win chesters , in the little town hall atUandy , to prevent a rescue by friends , who swarmed into the town from the sur rounding country. The sheriff , too , re ceived secret information that an at tempt would bo ruatlo to take the prisoner from him while on route from ( iamly to North Platte , but Sheriff Uoatio deceived them by going by the way of 1'awneo Springs , instead of the usual road. The sheriff received for the arrest $1,000 re ward from the government and f250 ! from the authorities of tlio territory of Wyoming. Parker has spent the entire summer on ft ranch seventy-live miles northeast of Grimly , which it is said , he purchased with the money stolen from the pay master. Ho established a store there , too.and stocked it up with goods and had a young man running it for him. Ho made frequent visits into Gandy. but Wednesday last was the first time Shorilf Doano over saw him. Ueforo the Fort Fettcrman robbery ho had been In the employ of the " 4 W. " cattle outfit , of north Wyoming , and it is said is wanted there for altering brands in the interest of an organised band of round-up thieves , who have been a plague to the honest ranchmen up there for years. Parker , although but little is known of his antecedents or history before the holding up of Major Hash , has been looked upon as a bad man in the most robust sense of the expression , one of those desperate cut-throat ? whoso hand nlwara rests upon the butt of his forty-live , and whenever never fails to pet the drop on his man. So well known has his name become since the robbery , that the whole community at North Plalto turned out on Sunday , and men rode in for a distance of lifty miles and gathered at the depot to sco him off inulor the charge of United States Marshal Hiorbower and Sheriff Doano. So chagrined and beaten were Parker's attorneys at North Platte that ho had been turned over to Marshal Bierbower that they brought suit yesterday , in the district court there against him , in conjunction with Sheriff Doaue , for $50- 000 damages for illegal arrest. Shorilf Doano , who is known as ono of the grittiest men in Nebraska , is a splen did specimen of the physical man , In his face is every feature of resolution and courage , at the same time it is a plo.is- ant countenance to look upon , and on his return to Gandy ho will bo accorded u lively reception by tlio law and order portion tion of the community.

Light is gradually beginning to shine upon the facts of the recent disappear ance of $10,009 from the care of a mes senger in the employ of tlio Pacific Ex press company. The packngo was con signed by Omaha parties to Clark & Lar- abic , bankers in liutto , Mont. . It wasjduo at that place on the 14th instantan J upon its failure to arrive , tlio company's officers of this nlnco were notified of the fact. They immediately took stops to ascertain which of their employes was last in charge of the precious pile and succeeded in locating it with a messenger named Uonnott.who ran from Green River to Iluntingtou. The trains on the Oregon short line are made up at the former sta tion and brancli off the main line at Gran ger. Bennett receipted for the package and knew its contents. His duty was to transfer the package at 1'ocatello , giving It either to another messenger in ease of a close connection with the Utali & North ern train at that point , or to tlio agent of the express company in the event of failure of such a connection. Bonnet made no transfer , and the oxprobs em ployes at the junction knew nothing of the package in question. Bonnet con tinued to the end of his run nt Iluntington , and on his re turn the package was missed. Ho claimed that ho had lost it , but this story was not believed , and when pressed with the importance of the circumstance , it is supposed , slyly communicated witli another person , with the result that tht hiding place of tlio package was dis covered and $8,200 of the money restored Late Saturday night Mr. Alorsonm received information of the arrest of Ben nctt. Now a question arises as to wha county the robbery was committed in This will bo ditliuult to prpvo in the ab ROHCO of witnesses , and especially us the train was moving at the timo. The facl that Bennett carried the package boyoiu Pqcatello , will bo likolyuscd to locate tin crime for tho.tirst charge. NO MONKV Kl > U SCHOOLS. Xlio Hoard of tCUuc.tilon Will Proba bly Auk PinHonda. . The board of education has prepared an elaborate table showing the courses of study which will hereafter obtain in the high school. Tlio namoa are as fol lows : English , Latin and Knglish , class leal , German and ICnglish , English atu manual training , a-ul Latin ami Kngllol1 witli manual training. The last three an now ones , belnt : distinctively introducci this year for the tirst time , The course- comprise four years and scorn to give i great dmU of satisf.iction to the mem bers. To these , will bo added a commcr olal course , which will In all probability boonloieuat the meeting of the bean to take place to-night. This will b fashioned for ono ye.u's study and bo s designed as to give the student the iufot luntkm required in morcantito lifo. Tlio manual training course , has biTs . extended to four years and is calculate to graduate the student in a numlxjr < pjttciicul studies , Aside from Lmhi uu . mathematics the course comprises draw ing , geometry , pattern making , mould ing , wood carving , physics , forging , bcnchwork , steam and gas-lltling. plumb ing , chemistry , steam engine and boiler studies and English literature. The work on the brick school building on Webster street # nd Omaha View has not yet been commenced , owing mainly to the fact that only rccontlv the lots in question were placed in readiness for the contractor. At the present time , thcro arc thrco small fr.imo temporary school houses in course of erection , two of thcso being on the Ballou property and ono in Omana View. In conversation with Mr. Copeland and Secretary I'lpor a reporter for the BEE this morning ascertained that there was no money at the disposal of the board with which to nay for the two brick schools above referred to and would not bo for some time. The reason of this was the refusal of the council to give the board the levy asked for. The former $157,000 for school purposes or a levy of about twelve mills , while it was granted one of but two mills , which will produce about $20,250. While there is suflicicnt to carry on the schools thcro is absolutely nothing to provide for the erection of now structures. which are required - quired in the thickly populated parts of the city and especially in the old county districts which nave lately been added to the city , Mr. Cope land said ho thought , however , the coun cil would bo moru liberal after the com mencement of the new li cnl year , which would bo January 1 , but oven in such an event , tlio money would not bo avail able before July of next year , after all tlio schools had cloaed. In view of tills difficulty , there scorned to him to be no means of tlio board getting the money it desired except by asking the people to vote them bomls. tie thought 1J300,000 oucht to bo so secured , while other members of the board did not favor so largo an amount. If the former amount could bo secured the original design of the high school could bo carried out by the addition of a wing to the south of that structure , which would make it the finest educational structure in the western country , Is Jefferson Square a Park' ? To the Kditor of the Br.E : Probably .there is no city in the United States which cherishes so faultless a theory on the subject of parks as Omaha. The people who oaro for this theory and nurse it and keep it in condition are now saying that the city must not give the library a site on Jefferson square , because Omaha will then lose one of its parks. ' 'Lot us have parks" is. the constant cry. Meanwhile kind nature takes care of those which the city already has. In llanscom nark the blue grass grows and runs to seed , storms gully out the roads , water undermines the bridges , cows graze on the door park , hay stacks rise upon the hill and nobody has a now house but the oaglo. llanscom pars per sists in being a lovely spot and people who enjoy its beauties thank the sun and the rain therefor. Turn wo now to our olhcr "park. " The fence foil down gradually for two years around Jefferson square. This summer its remains were removed. The "park" now lies naked before the eyes of those who live about it and those who have to pass it by. Its trees are untrimmed - trimmed ; almost all of them grow at unsightly angles. Its surface is an alter nation of rank grass and bare clay. Its "band stand" displays a choice collection of patent medicine bills and is scrawled over with rudp and indecent writings. Hero description must pauso.for there is nothing more to cicscribo. This band stand and corner stiles , which now sur vive the fcnco.are the only improvements which have been made on Jefferson square since the trees were planted. No , ono more wo must put down andbo thankful for , the light , the "kindly light" which saves the square from being a dangerous and criminal as well as a disgraceful spot. Men cross this "park" but women sel dom do. No ono over sees a baby there ; no tired woridng girl stops to rest a mo ment under its trees , for thrco reasons. First , the trees have boon so neglected that , though they should bo well grown , they hardly cast a shadow. Secondly , no scats have ever boon placed under the trees. Thirdly , no woman wishes to sub ject herself to disagreeabln and annoying contacts , thcroforo she does not linger in Jefferson bquaro. For six days in the week the city government is unconscious of its existence , on the seventh a spasmodic policeman descends upon it and warns off a school-girl. In the day time people who are not in a hurry go around it. At night when the evening darkens a little it begins to till u , and by 8 o'clock it looks as if some ugly disease had broken out upon it. Men and boys , loafers and ragamuffins half clothed , gather there. Many lie down at full length on the ground , others sit on the ground in a long row at the sidewalk's inner edge , now that the fence is gone , and with their elbows on their knees , they spit , and stare at la dies who pass with escorts. Loud talk , profanity and coarse laughter sound along that block. The electric light glares down and thrusts into the faces and eyes of families as they take their evening driyo , this shameful "park" given over to the vagrants of Omaha. Were the city council to grant the li brary the site asked for , we are told that wo should no longer have Jcflcr.scm "Park. " May heaven speed the dayl Public meetings , few and far between , open air concerts , given within the mem ory of man , have upon occasions lifted vho square into respectability. When law and order make a perma nent entrance , then and only then will there bo what our good uooplo wish to see : pleasant coming anil going through a green and shady spot , kept and carrd for in the city's midst. The request ol the committee to the city of Omaha ex pressly reads "ample room being loft fet park purposes. " Let the library in , and from Jefferson "Park" as it is , may the library dolivoi us now and forever.

The members of each nine were quite inexperienced , and the way they twisted the sphere was the cause of much merriment to the specta tors , and at the same time causing them anxiety for their own safety. The most ludicrous incident was when a lean base man tried to catch a ball to put out a fat runner and fell , and the heavy weight struck him amidship , and foil on him , nearly crushing his life out. Tlio game resulted in a score of 18 to C , in favor of the leans. RAILWAY MATTERS. Tcbblts and the Union Pacific Passcn- jor Department. OMAHA , August 10 , ' 87 To the Editor of the BEE : Since the coming of Mr. Potter - tor to the Union Pacific railroadtho local press has teemed with conjectures as to coming changes in all branches of the Union Pacific service. None have ob served more closely and accurratcly in advance the much needed reforms which have under Mr. Potter's more practical administration taken place than the BEE. The comments of % thcr papers disparag ing of the appointment of Mr. J. S. Tob- bits as general passenger ana tiokot agent to succeed J. W. Morse and C. S. Stobbins , is in the opinion of the writer very wrong indeed , and does great in justice to Mr. Tcbbits. It may be true that ho is a young man and that his knowledge of the workings of the pas senger department is at present limited , but does it not follow that with his acknowledged aptncss.supcrior learning , and under tlio guidance of Mr. T. J. Potter , ho will in a few short weeks have the reins of his department as thoroughly in hand as Morse and Stcb- bins ever had. What particular or peculiarly fitting qualifications did C. S. Stebbins ever carry into the department when appointed from a clerkship in Mr. Kimball's c.ttice , by Mr. Kimball , to the position of general passenger agentt Nono. Again what special fitness or qualifications did J. W. Morse bring from the Chicago Clark street store to the general ticket agency of the Union Pa cific railway ? None that anybody knows of. Both of thcso appointments were mudo by Thomas L. Kimball through pure Personal friendship , and not only that , but the ono office of "general pas senger and ticket agont1' was divided into two in order to niako room for thorn , and neither ono of them was as compe tent then to fill the positions as Mr. Tcb bits is to-day. Such comment , prompted by them or the frinnds of the outgoing officials , are intended to prejudice matters - tors so that Mr. Tobbits will experience difficulty from the start. Ho has a big field in which to inaugurate reform , and we predict a most successful manage ment of his dopartmont. JUSTICE. County Commissioners.
