The condition of Miss Lucy White , the
Harrison street young lady who swallowed
three table spoonfuls of concentrated lye
Wednesday morning in the hope of ending
her life. Is very critical , nnd it is feared that
her rash act will result fatally. It is another
love affair with an unfortunate ending.
In the case of the State vs L. C. Ucam for
larceny the defendant was discharged. The
court staled that ho hardly thought the evl-
dcnco sufllcicnt to bind the prisoner over to
the grand Jury , although ho thought that if
any ono was disposed to urosccute the case
the defendant's guilt might bo easily proven.
As no ono was disposed to push the case the
prisoner was released.
The soft places in the roadbed of the motor
line nro being raised to grade and all needed
work done so that as soon as the other motor
arrives and the railway crossings are put in
thcro will bo nothing to prevent putting on
regular cars nnd running at full speed. The
motors will not make regular trips to day ,
but will run to-morrow for the accommoda
tion of all who wish to visit the lake.
Superintendent Ptcston of the Hock Island
nnd B. F. Brayton , cliief engineer of that
road , were In the city yesterday , but were
unable to btny long enough to confer with
Mr. Uecd in regard to the motor line crossing
their tracks on Ninth street. No tiouble is
expected from this quarter , however , and it
j ( is thought that in n very short time the motor
0 cars will bo running through to Broadway.
Chief Seavey , of Omaha , proposes to send
two of hiB men over to this side of the rivet-
once every week for the purpose of spotting
tj the crooks who infest the gambling houses
i bore , and to keep track of the prisoners in
f the city nnd county jails , so that the police
may keep nn eye on them when they visit on
Nebraska soil. A similar action on the part
of Chief Lucas in having Omaha visited oc
casionally would bo productive of much good
x In the way of assisting the police of this
i city.Tho
The last lecture In the Ragan course was
given last evening , the subject being Komo.
As on previous evenings the audience was
enthusiastic , nnd often gave expression to
their feelings by hearty applause when some
especially striking view was presented or
some plcnsing allusion made by the speaker.
Thus closes a series of entertainments which
have afforded much delight to the intelligent
audiences which have attended , and have
also caused the tieasury of the ladies society
of the Congregational church to receive
about ? 100 net prollt.
Some time last winter n pair of overshoes
were placed hy the careful owner on the
ledge , outside the rail , at the entrance of the
court house , ho doubtless thinking they
e would bo so safe there that ho would find
them on coming out. Ho evidently was so
careful about placing them In a safe place
that ho forgot where ho put them , and there
they have remained to this day. During
these many weeks the observant Janitor
1 has not discovered the presence of the over-
Li shoos , nnd they will probably remain there
* r ns a uniiiuo decoration of the building until
his eyes catch this announcement , when ho
will probably remove them , unless the owner
gets there Jirst. Many have observed the
special deposit on the front steps , nnd have
been watching day by day and month by
month to see how long it would bo before the
Janitor swept there.

' The boozers and peace disturbers were
1 well represented in police court yesterday
' morning , and Judge Aylcsworth assessed the
: penalties for deeds done in the flesh In his
usual liberal and impartial manner. The
beer guzzlers were represented by John Holt ,
John King nnd Joseph Smith , and they were
each taxed $7,00 to atone for their sin of
drinking too much unlicensed liquor ,
Charles Cuitts and Charley Jones were the
representatives of the colored population ,
and their offense consisted of an attempt to
crack each other's skulls , contrary to the lavf
of the great state of Iowa for such cases
made and provided. A frail dusky maiden
by the name of Ella Chester was called as a
witness , and with her assistance Curtis was
able to thiow the blame on Jones , and the
latter was accordingly fined $11.bO , while
Curtis got off without paying a cent.

The races met with another postponement
yesterday. The earlier part of the day was
unfavorable , and although the sun came out
bofuro noon and the afternoon was very
pleasant , it was decided to combine the races
of the third and fourth days and make double
attractions for the last day. Unless more
rain falls the track will bo In splendid condi
tion to-day , but the races will be run , rain or
shine. The management has decided that
the Uluff City stake rnco must bo run this
afternoon , oven if It has to bo in a driving
rain , and some of the other races will follow
suit. It is proposed to have seven races for
this aftcinoon , nnd as it will icculro consid
erable time to run them all the lirst one will
bo started very shortly after 1 o'clock. It
will make a rather long afternoon , but it will
bo a most Interesting occasion for all who
enjoy good speed contests , as the best
horses nt the park nro entered for the
purses and they will all bo ridden to win.
The following entries are made for to-day's
races :

The New FostoHicc.
The tnarblo wainscoatlng and fire places
are being placed In position in the court room
of the government building , and when com
pleted will bo the finest work of the kind in
the city. The wainscoating is eight feet in
height , five being marble and the other three
of polished oalc. On the north and south
sides will bo the two great fireplaces nnd
mantels , fifteen feet high , on the cast side
over the wainscoating a monster eagle twelve
feet tall , and on the west side , bauk of the
Judges bench an immense French plate mir
ror. Although this part of the work is
scarcely more than begun as yet , it already
shows up well , and a very fair idea of tbo
whole may bo obtained.
In the basement another pier is being built
in the northeast corner to support the weight
of the chimney and vent shafts.
The work of reulacing the cracked stones
and also of rebuilding the steps and butt
resses , will bo commenced immediately.
It is possible that the buttresses at the cast
entrance will not have to be , although the
steps will have to bo rclaid , and at the north
entrance the whole work will have to bo re
built. The settling of the building is what
has caused the trouble , as the weight of the
steps was not enough to cause a like settling
on their part. The work of rebuilding will
require about thirty days. The smoke stack
extension has arrived and will soon bo placed
In postion. The now part is of boiler iron
and will bo enclosed in an outer covering of
palvani/ed iron to correspond with the rest
of the building. The extension will bo four
teen feet high. As soon ns these changes nro
made the whole exterior of the building will
bo cleaned , and the dust that disfigures it as
well as the sooty deposit from the chimney
will all bo removed , leaving the structure
when completed , on of the handsomest that
Undo Sam owns.
An Opportunity.
The Chicago , Burlington & . Quincy
will sell tickets to St. Louis Juno 2 , 3 ,
4 , and 5 , which will bo good for return
passage until Juno 11 , at ono faro
( $11.25) ) for the round trip , thus afford
ing an opportunity for .ill who desire to
attend the Derby races , the national
convention and have a good time.
The trip via the "Burlington" is n de
lightful ono. Its equipments is superior
and its road bed unequalled.

Too , Too , Tooting.
The residents in the southern part of the
city are still greatly tormented by the con
tinual hooting of the locomotive whistles. "I
will tell you what It Is , " remarked ono of the
complainants yesterday. "We stood it pretty
well for the first month or six weeks , but wo
are getting rather tired of It. You see it
docs no good. "
"Who Is at fault , and who does the hoot-
ingl"
"Why , you see , every tlmo a scab engineer
comes along in the yards the engineers of all
the other engines begin blowing their whis
tles and hooting him. That's their way of
showing how much they hnto the scabs.
They inako as awful noises as they
can , That scab engineer no sooner
gets out of the way before some
other ono comes along , and then the
hooting starts up again lust awfully. You
SBO they ically punish the wrong follows.
One'scab engineer has to hc.ir it perhaps for
ten or fifteen minutes , but those who live
around there have to hear it pretty much all
the time. Tticn I and the rest of us used to
depend on the whistles to blow In case of
tire In our part of town. If there was a fire
the engines would nil commence tooting , and
wo would know it. Now if there should bo
a tire and the engines should commence , wo
wouldn't pay any attention to it. for we'd
think it was another scab engine coming
along. Hut thu worst of it is when folks are
kick. The everlasting uolso of those whistles
is enough to kill a well man , and sick folks
can't stand it. Yes , for heaven's sake put
bomuthing in Tut UBK that will make them
stop. "

Abbott vs the Citizens bank was still being
heard. The trial brings out nn array of facts
and figures concerning the stock transactions
of Grccnnmcycr , showing that the business

months last season. The amount Involved in
this suit Is over $10,000. It is naturally being
fought step by step , and will hardly reach a
finish to-day.

Lewiston Journal : Says an Auburn
candy-maker : "Tho trade in the choco
late quality of candy is coining to the
front very fa&t. As much again of the
chocolate is sold ns iivo years ago. Pea
nut and cough candy holds its own
through all the changes other gradca
are undergoing. Twice us much cough
candy is sold in winter as in sum
mer. Cough candy sells the best in
the small country villages. The far
mers and villagers think nothing of
going to the store for a pound of the
cough candy , when the same people are
seldom known to indulge in the luxury
of other grades.
"Peanut candy is all ago with the
children. It is likely 'twill bo a long
time before anything else will be found
that will take its placo. The class of
candy wo call "penny goods" nro prob
ably ahead of anything elbe in the mar
ket as fast selling goods. Penny goods
are such as the retailers soil by the
cent's worth , generally speaking. Of
course such goods are sold by the pound
to customers , but not to such an extent
ns the higher-priced goods. In getting
out this class of goods , the point is to in
troduce something now in style , in the
make-up of the candy. Since the 1st of
January , ' 88 , we have made a good hit
in getting out broken and stick candy ,
with letters and designs impressed in
the end of each. For instance , in the
two ends of a piece of candy we make
the figure of the 'stars and stripes , ' and
in another insert the word 'boss , ' and in
a third the figures which signify the
present year ' 1888. '
"This btyle of candy sells well. I sup
pose thcro are one or two old fashioned
styles and makes of candy that will bo
been and sold for years to come yet. Ono
of them is the short , four-inch stick
candy , with its several flavors. It hangs
in the market like the old fashioned
molasses grade. A short time ago wo
thought we'd run it out of the market
by getting up an attractive , long six-
inch twisted stick , that would leave the
old-fashioned style in the shade ; butno ,
sir just as much call ns before our ef
forts to obliterate it. Another class of
goods that's got the hang to thorn is the
small lozenges put up in rolls and fla
vored with a variety of extracts. Still ,
the onward march otho wafer is mak
ing the old-fashioned roll lozenges fall
to the rear. *
"Tho trade in wafers is what you
might say booming. Wo make a dozen
different flavored wafcrsbuttho wintergreen -
green rather takes the lead , Of the
penny goods , the "molasses puff" holds
its own remarkably well. This , as you
know , is molasses candy , and is square
in form. It is good , toothsome eating ,
and children and others who buy them
look at it in the light thatt hey are get
ting a big piece of candy for their
money. "
