A Bold nncl Villainous Outrage.
A dustnrdly outrage was committed at tlio
private boarding house kept by Mrs. Juke
Schrelnur , 1413 Chicago street , at half past 3
o'clock yesterday morning. Two of the domes
tics , Nellie Hosldns and Minnie Chrlsjohnsou
occupy a room on the ground floor in the rear
of the house , and the weather beIng -
Ing somewhat sultry , and their room close ,
they loft the back window hoisted. At the
hour above mentioned , Minnie , who occupied
the same bed with Nellie , and was also on
the outstdo , was awakened by some ono
touching her on the arm. She sut up In bed ,
only to sco the flguro of a ihau In front of
her , and holding a revolver at her head. Ho
ordered her to Ho down and keep still , threat
ening to kill her if she made any outcry or
attempt to alarm the house. She , In her oi-
trcmc fright , obeyed the rufllan , who
then turned to the window , , and
ina subdued voice called : "Keep a sharp
lookout there , parti. until I am through , then
Jou can eoinoln , " thus indicating that there
wore two of the fiends. "
The man In the room then ordered Mlnnlo
to awake her friend , which she did , and tell
ing her not to stir on penalty of having her
throat cut , the brute got into bed with the
two girls. Ho immediately turned his atten
tion to Nellie , and grasping her by the throat
the two hciraii to strtiirile. It was at this
critical juncture that , Mlnnlo sprang from the
bed , and despite the. fact that she thoughtsho
must encounter a second villian in the yard ,
she sprang from the window. To her delight
there was no man there , and hurrying to the
front of the house she screamed to Mrs.
Kchrelner in her room above , and quickly
succeeded in arousing the house. Stio was
almost stupelicd with fear , but gave the gen
tlemen boarders to understand that there
was a man in her room , and
thither they rushed together. They
quickly burst in the door but the scoundrel
had lied , leaving the outraged girl lying In-
"tisililu across the bed. Search was at once
lnstu.t < ( . ( i about the premises but no eluo to
the man was found. Kate AVclrli , however ,
another domestic lnu.r this time eomo from
her room above and she m > u uii ( . tmi seen a
man run across the yard and scale u.o r. < Upo
about the time Minnie's piercing shrieks
broke upon the air from in front of the house.
Sim obtained a tolerably fair look at the mis
creant , and when the police , who had imme
diately been sent for arrived , gave them a
description which an hour later led to the
arrest of Pat Uooncy , a young hoodlum of
the toughest make. Ho was arrested in a
baleen near the corner of Eleventh and
Chicago streets , and asserting his innocence
Was taken to Mrs. Schrcinor's and con
fronted with Mrs. Welch. The latter , while
she was almost certain , could not be positive ,
that ho was the man. Ho was conducted to
the police station and arraigned before Judge
Herku as a suspicious character. He pleaded
not guilty , but was given twenty days in jail
in order that ho might be in safe keeping
until the outrage upon Miss Ho kins could be
thoroughly investigated. Dr. Hlaph called up
on the young girl yesterday morning and
found her prostrated with nervousness and on
the verge of hysteria. Her throat showed siirns
of the severe clioking she had received , while
her body and limbs were severely bruised
and contused , Uooncy is a vile looking
wretch , and the opinion Is that he Is the
right man. _
THKV STRIKIS ?
He tn I'll or Superintendent Pick-
on HOII AnxloiiHly Awaited.
The dissatisfaction among the switchmen
employed in the Union Pacific upper and
lower yards promises to result In a general
strike of the men employed In all the yards
unless the demands of Grand Master James
Ij. Monaghan , in behalf of the Switchmen's
Mutual Aid society , are not complied with.
The presentation of their grievances was
made yesterday bcforo Mr. Bliekcns-
derfer , superintendent of the Nebraska di
vision of the Union Puelllc and Mr. McClint-
ook , terminal agent of the 15. & M. lines. A
largo number of witnesses testified and Mr.
Ullckcnsdcrfer reserved decision until the
return of Superintendent Dickcnson , which
is expected t > oino time during the present
week.
Grand Master Monaghan was seen yes
terday at the AVIndsor hotel and asked
concerning the trouble. He said : "The
trouble is not of recent origin. It
began homo months ago when
the Switchmen's ' Mutual Aid society
expelled P. H. Median , ono of the head ofll-
cers of the lodg o. Ho was charged with
crookedness , and it was proven to my mind
that ho had been guilty of appropriating
money belonging to the order. Median swore
vengeance , and openly stated that ho would
some time hold a position In the Union Pa-
cillc yards that would enable him to put his
foot on the neck of every man belonging to
the society. At this time the upper yards
were under the charge of Yardmaster Davis ,
and the lower ono of Yardmastcr Tighe.
These men were and are common drunkards ,
and luivo been noted for their outrageous
treatment of the men under them. Old , ex
perienced and steady switchmen have been
turned out and their places supplied by im
ported mciii favorites of the two tyrannical
yard masters. Most of them were drinking
men , and utterly incapable of performing thu
duties to which they were assigned. Meenan
then began training with these men , and soon
'stood in solid.1
"Soon it was given out that Median had
been appointed foreman in the lower yards ,
and ho proceeded I'tonco to make good his
threats of revenge against the union men.
Every indignity that ho could think of he
heaped upon them , nnd while drunk , which
was often , his abuse was simply outrageous ,
Tighe , in the meantime , rendered valuable
assistance in helping Median in his revenge ,
and several old and trusted men wore sum
marily discharged. This man Tigho is a con
tinued drunkard , nnd was discharged from
the Santa fo yards at Kansas Uity for
drunkenness and neglect of duty.
"All of these charges were substantiated
Hy twenty to thirty witnesses before
the onlcers of the road , and wo hope
that our demand , viz. , the release of Median
and Tigho from the yards will bo granted ,
If not there will undoubtedly bo a general
strike. Wo don't care to what othet
department they arc assigned , but
wo won't linvo them in the yards
if wo can help it. Davis resigned simply be
cause ho dare not face an Investigation ant
this ho told mo himself. The constitution ol
our order is very conservative and especially
provides against the admitting to mcmbcrshli
of drunkards or criminals. Wo only admil
competent switchmen nnd use every cndeavoi
to protect the interest of the company and tin
public at largo. I am going to Denver for f
few days but bhall return as soon as Mr
Dickeiison and shall then act according to hi :
decision. "
In connection with the above it Is stated bj
men thoroughly acquainted with the work
Ings of both yards that If the public couh
only know of the neglect and incompetent
of many men employed In the yards , of the
fearful amount of drunkenness and thoabusi
to which patrons of the road are subjcctci
there wonld bo nn investigation ilemanilet
instantly. If this is true the lives of citizen :
urc in constant Jeopardy.

l' vt Hound Colony.
At a meeting of trio Omoim branch of the
? uget Sound co-operative colo'n.r nt their
all Sunday afternoon , the question of co -
pcratlon as applied to production was ably
Iscussed by F. J. MoArdlc , the agent of the
icntral society. The drift of his argu-
nent was to show that under the
rcbcnt co-operative system no person can bo
oncst. because a premium is set upon dis-
onest methods in business , manufacturers
and commerce. Success is always honored
iven by those who are the victims of tliis
lystem. In co-operation , which only seeks
.o secure in the result of their honest toil ,
: an honestly ever find Its true reward.
Mr. Norman U. Smith , referring to the
July of the members of this branch , , said
Hint while the members on the colony site
ivorknd hard to promote the interests of all
' .he members , the members in Omaha should
bear in mind that they , too , had a duty to
perform , Funds were much needed at the
jolony site to develope struggling industries
that only needed machinery to make them
much more productive.
The little hall was full , mostly by non-
inoinbers who sought information by asking
luestions. Music and singing interspersed
: ha speaking aiid business. Seven new
numbers wcro added to the roll.
Sunday School Concert.
The Sunday school of the Hanscom park
M. E. churc gave its third concert Sunday ,
evening A largo number of ladies tad gentle
men were present , and a most enjoyable
evening was spent by all. The programme
consisted of recitations and songs by the little
folks , each of whom rendered his or her part
in a decidedly pleasing manner. The church
choir , composed of rich and pleasing voices ,
rendered a number of appropriate selections.
A short address to the little ones was made
> y Judge Fawcett.lateof Illinois. At thocom-
iletlon of the programme subscriptions were
taken , the result of which was the complete
payment ot the Sabbath school indebtcdncbs ,
for the erection of the church. The audience
was a thoroughly appreciative one , and the
little participants in the evening's programme
were accorded many eromiums for the rendi
tion of their parts. The next concert will
take place within three months , and earnest
endeavors will bo made to make the affair
even more pleasing than the one of last night.

Henry Schlou , being duly sworn , deposes
and nay * that ho is a citizen of Douglas
county , Nebraska , and has during the past
three years been engaged as a farm laborer ;
that he was engaged on the farm of Gcorgo
Timmo from the loth of January , 1885 , until
the 10th of August of said year ; that during
said six months ho was at work steady on
said farm ; that with an agreement made
with the said George Tlmme , deponent waste
to receive f 15 per month and his board ns
wages for his labor , and that the only pay
the said dctoncnt | received from said Timmo
was # 8 worth of ready made clothing ; that
the said Timmc , after thu expiration of six
months' service , refused to pay over the bal
ance of $82 , duo himunder pretense that , de-
ironcnt's service was not worth any more
than ho had received : that deponent sued
said Timmo bcforo an Omaha justice of the
peace , and that when the suit came up for
trial the said Gcorgo Timmc , together with
his brother Herman Timme , and son Hlchard
Timmo , testified that the balance duo de
ponent for his labor had been more
than offset by damages which the said
George Timmo pretended to have sustained
by reason of deponent's inferior work on the
farm , and thereupon deponent was declared
to have no valid claim against said JPimme.
Deponent further deposes that ho was too
poor to appeal from the decision nnd unable
by reason of his poverty to procure witnesses
to contradict the testimony of Tlnime and
his relatives. Deponent further says that
since leaving the employ of George Timmo the
said Timme , through his son and also through
another party , sent word to him that ho must
leave the country.

S. Shoinaker , lawyer for Mrs. Sarah A. Bry
ant , filed a claim for 110,000 damages against
James H. McCullough , William Coburn ,
Dorsey P. Houck , Samuel D. Mercer and
Byron Uccd as defendants. According to
Mrs. Bryant's story , she has been n very
badly treated woman. She sets forth In her
complaint that she was in lawful possession
of the house No. ! U4 North Fourteenth street
on the first of last September ; that she was
an invalid and was compelled to keep to her
bed the greater part of the time. On the
day In question she alleges that she had just

two express wagons In the employ of Samuel
D. Mercer , drew up in front of
her house. A constable accompa
nied the invaders , and In terms

house nnd her appeals to the constable to
give her a little time to gather up some brlc-
u-brue and other valuables wcro followed by

Bryant says that her household effects were
thrown promiscuously in the streets nnd that
it is her honest belief that now some of her
neighbors nro masquerading in a part of her
wardrobe to the valuc.of $150. Mrs. Bryant
concludes her complaint , which occupies
several pages of legal cup , by saying that it
will take all of $10,000 to repay her for the
damage done her health and personal pos
sessions by the eviction.

THE CROWDS
Of customers in our store every day tell the story of the business we are
doing. We are determined to keep it up , and the more the public favor
us with their patronage , the more will we show them that we appre
ciate their confidence , and will strive to retain it. Just now Overcoats
are in great demand , and are going off like hot cakes. The styles and
prices take. But as fast as the piles are disappearing from the counters
they are replenished by new and choice arrivals , which our buyer is
daily sending us from the east. We have new styles to show everyday
and the prices we mark them at must be very tempting , as the people
buy them so quick. Evidently there must be a great difference between
our prices and those of other houses.
Other departments that are booming are Gloves , Underwear and Ho
siery. Our corner window this week gives you a small idea of what we
are doing in the latter lines. Where could you get such a good scar
let all wool shirts and drawers at 45c each , or such all wool seamless ,
socks at 15c a pair ? Other houses would think they give you bargains
when they charge you twice the money for such goods.
