Ernest K. Wllllunison , who six years ngo
robbed the firm of Albert Mornn & Co. , of
Fall Hlvcr , Mass. , of f 0,000 , nml fled to
parts unknown , 1ms nt last been captured
nnd passed through this city in the charge of n
Plnkcrton operative yesterday. William *
nan's crime was a peculiarly sensational ono
from the fact that the senior member of the
firm ho robbed was his futhor-ln-law of but
two days standing. Williamson was married
to Miss Hcttlc Moran on the evening of Juno
14 , 1881. The next morning Mrs. William
son went out for a drive with one Mrs. Horst ,
unattended by nny escort. The spirited horse
they drove run away and Mrs. Williamson
was Instantly killed. That same night Moran
& Co. , received a package by express
containing nearly fiO.OOO in cash.
Mr. Moran placed It In the safe , It being after
banking hours , nnd went to his home of ser
row. Williamson was there , bowed down
with grief. Mr. Moran Inbidently mentioned
the fact of the largo amount resting In the
safe und then went to his room. Notwith
standing that his brldu of but a few hours
lay cold in death In an adjoining room , Wil
liamson wc'nt to the office , opened the safe ,
Htolc the money and lied. Williamson was
the confidential man of the firm and had
access to the safe und all the private papers
of the concern.
When his crime was discovered on the fol
lowing day it created the most Intense ex
citement and the firm was forced to close Its
doors nnd go into bankruptcy. The case was
placed in the hands of the Pinkcrtons , but all
their efforts to capture the thief were fruit
less. His arrest on the llth of this
month , whloh was effected near Homcr-
vllle , Gasper county , Neb , , was
brought about in a peculiar manner.
About a year ago an itinerant and nomadic
photographer passed through Homcrvillo
making pictures to order. Among the rest
was that of the ono store in the place. When
the picture was developed It showed that
amongst the loungers and ranchmen in front
of the place , was the man Williamson. Of
course the photographer knew nothing about
him , and after selling what ho could de
parted. It had always been his habit to reserve -
servo ono of the copies , and no exception
was made to the rule in this case.
Last Thanksgiving dity this photographer
was arrested by the Pinkcrtons In Chicago ,
on suspicion of having committed a murder
In that city , and his room was searched and
all of his effects subjected to a careful exam
ination. Among the rest was the Homcrvlllt
picture. Quo operative thought ho recognized
Williamson's and after
photograph compar
ing it with the ono In the possession of the
agency was positive that at last the Fall.
H.ver embezzler had been located. Requisi
tion papers woru obtained und the arrest was
made ut Williamson's own ranch on the llth
of the present month.
The embezzler made an emphatic dental of
his Identity , but finally gave in with the re
mark , ' 'Well , I've been in hell long enough. "
The prisoner was handcuffed and would
talk but little. Williamson is a man nppar
cn'tly thirty-live years of age. The two left
for Massachusetts ut 10:15 : in the morn Ing.
One Fact
IH worth a column of rhetoric , said an
American Bttitcbinan. It is a fact , es
tablished by the testimony of thousands
of people , that Hood's Snrsapiirilla does
euro scrofula , salt rheum , and other dis
eases and affections arising from impure
Htato or low condition of the
blood. It also overcomes that tired feel
ing creates a good appetite , and gives
btronglh to ' every part of the system3

Hatcher vs Johnson.
A few nights ago Captain Napoleon B.
Hatcher punched the head of ono Johnson
through a pane of glass in ono of the windows
of the Millard hotel. i\lr. Jolmnon got , cut ,
and suffered ignominious defeat. Such to
n member of the well-known Johnson family
must bo Ignominious , because not less than a
dozen of its members hnvo written the Bnn
to protest they arc not the particular John
sonwho , fought , bled nnd failed to dlo nt the
hands of the valiant captain with the- Little
Corporal's praenomen. This paper had
grown weary publishing thcso denials , and
closed down upon a pile which has since been
received. It however gives place to ono moro
denial and that is the only ono received from
the Napoleonic sldo of Iho controversy. It
comes from Mr. Hatcher himself- and is in
effect that when he caused Johnson's h.eud to
jrnln him by shooting It through u pane of
glass , ho was not Intoxicated , save with the
intoxication of plensuru ho afforded himself
in so satisfactorily doing up his Johnsonian
antagonist. _

This Swindler JTurufl Out to Bo an
Kinhczzlcr of Nerve.
Constable Edgcrton returned yesterday
from a ( rip west , taken In company with the
alleged embezzler ; John Palm. This gentle
man witli the wide-spreading name , it will bo
remembered , was arrested , about a week
ngo , at the Union Pacific deiwt , while buying
a ticket for Denver. Ha was Identified by a
drug man , who telephoned Kirkcndull ,
Jones ft Co , , and Mr. Coe , of this firm of
boot and shoe men , with an officer repaired
to the depot and arrested him. He was
charged with having defrauded the latter
firm of about > SOO. They had sold him goods
and he had neither paid for nor seemed to In
tend to pay for them. Other firms were
treated In the same manner. Palm was put
In Jail and secured an attorney , as also
did Klrkendull , Jones & Co. Palm
was brought before Judge Anderson
and the firm's attorney wanted him remand
ed to the authorities of Dawson county on
the ground that the court had no Jurisdiction
in the matter. Palm's attorney , a member
of a firm here , It l < i stated made little If any
objection , having previously , however , se
cured retainer of ten dollars. Palm wus re
manded tfc the authorities mentioned and on
Tuesday last Constable Edgerton.Mr. Coe of
Klrkendall , Jones < fe Co. , and accompanied by
Mr. Jeffries , an attorney , started for Goth
enburg , Uawson county in this state. It was
at that place that itwas claimed Palm had
committed his embezzlement. They rode to
North Platte , \vhunco they doubled
back to Gothenburg , which wus up In
arms to receive the fraud. Ho was immedi
ately recognized by the citizens whoso feel
ings run warm against him and some of them
were so excited that but little would have
been required to linpell them to persofml as
sault upon thu runaway. There it was learned
that he had bought from ousldacrcditors a
large stock of goods for a general store , and
cut the price * so low that it almost ruined the
established dealers In the place. After ho
had nearly sold out , with a good roll of money
in his pocket , and all his bills unpaid , he
skipped , and his partner , u man. named
Lagergren , followed him. But ima'gino the
surprise of Edgerton , Coo and Jeffries when ,
after having been recognized by many of the
Gothenburg people , denying that his
namu was Palm and further that he had
ever done business In tnelr town , he stoutly
asserted his mime wus Johnson and that
name was found In his bible. It seems that
tills was a premeditated trick , but it will
avail little as two dozen people identified him
and testified before ,1 list lee Smith as to his
wrong doings. Notwithstanding his denials
ho was put under bonds of $2,000 , In default
of which he was put on an extra train and
carried to Plum Creek , where h'e wus put
behind thu burs. Palm was not
defended by mi attorney. Ho claimed that
the Ornuhu lawyer who appeared for him before -
fore Judge Anderson in this city got an order
from him on Jailer Miller , nnd that the lat
ter had gotten $101 there belonging to Palm
and had refused to accompany him to Dawson -
son county to defend him. This makes Sill
paid to a lawyer for a single appearance in u
justice court , when $10 would have been u
good fee.

THE CHEAMEUV QUESTION.
Last DIscuBRlonB Ujr the State Con
vention YcMcrdny.
There was an excellent attendance at the
meeting of the dairymen yesterday , the
prevailing characteristics of which wore in
telligence and Intel cat In the aubjeoU under
consideration. President Whltmorc , of
Valley , occupied the choir , while Secretary
Wing , assisted by the 'official 'stenographer ,
Charles Potter , attended to the jnhnite"s. The
notes taken by Mr. Potter will bo written out
In full , and will give an accurate and valuable
report of the proceedings , which will bo pub
lished in book form.
Tl e papers read in the morning were "Pri
vate Dairy Interests of Nebraska , " J. H.
Heed , Columbus , and "Advantages of the
Ctcnmery over the Private Duliy , " byE. F.
Howe , Fairmont. Both these papers were
discussed in very Interesting manner , Mr.
Avcry of the Fremont creamery , the pioneer
man in the business taking the most promi
nent , yet not the least/ modest part. Ho de
clared himself to be , first , last nnd all
the tlmo n creamery man , nnd
yet ho did not deny that the
nrlvato dairies might secure us good a price
for their butter as could the creameries , as It
hud been done in places eusqVospcclully in
Pennsylvania , where ho knew farmers had
for years sold their butter at not less than
$1 per pound. Yet , there were conditions
which should exist before creameries In Ne
braska could be made first-class financial and
manufacturing successes. The Fremont
creamery was ono of the most complete , and
the b.uildlng perhaps the finest of its kind in
the country. ' For three years it
hud returned him just about enough
to pay his board , while it also enabled him to
drop n couple of thousand dollars. Since
then It bus been doing better. When ho
opened up the creamery he had been promised
the milk of 400 new milch cows within a
radius of seven miles. But ho never had re
ceived it , although It hud been offered him
put down in black and white. This experi
ence led him to advise several
gentlemen present who were %
tercsted in creameries and whoso
towns * \vero considering the advisability
of establishing similar institutions , to be
careful before they laid their money out.
These he advlse'd to canvass the farmers
within a radius of twenty miles and sec how
many cows each of them would milk the fol
lowing season , put down the number and
when thev were satisfied they could get nil
the milk they wanted , divide thu territory
Into routes and a route which did not give
from fifty to sixty degree's of milk daily
ought to bo abandoned. If such wcro done
and done regularly , there was 110 rea
son why a creamery should not
pay for its supply within II
cents of the price by Elgin and return u
dividend on the capital invested. It was be
cause creameries were established without
these essentials and the possibility of the
necessary supply that , up to the present th y
have not nil been great successes.
At the afternoon meeting "How I Make
