An Explanation.
Rnn Cr.oun , Neb. , May 10. To tbo Editor
of THE BEE : In your Issue of the 15th. inst ,
you publish a statement from .your corro-
epondent -Lincoln , reflecting upon the
treatment of the Into Charles E. Eaton , the
unfortunate traveling man , by the surgeons
of the B. & M. railroad , and inasmuch ns I
was on the train all the way from Lincoln to
the scene of the wreck with Mrs. Charles E.
Eaton and her escort , Colonel A. P. Martin ,
Of Lincoln , I am prepared to speak intelli
gently upon tbo subject. It is true that Mrs.
Eaton was first taken to Red Cloud as well
ns myself. As soon as wo arrived there I
nsUcd for and got an onglno and caboose
to take myself and Mrs. Eaton to the wreck ,
nnd Just ns wo were ready to start word was
received that tbo water was running over the
brldgo near Franklin and the track was un
safe. Aa train No. 15 was now due and would
bo in in a few minutes and would bo sent
round by way of Hastings to Oxford's , that
being only twenty-six miles from the wreck ,
wo arrived thcro at about 5 o'clock on the
morning of the 2Sth. I then nskcd for and
Kot'a special engine and coach from McCook ,
which took Mrs. Eaton , her escort and
myself down to near the wreck , arriving
at Charles Eaton's bcdsldo twenty-si * hours
after his injury and not thirty-six
ns your correspondent puts It. It is true , I
removed several pieces of broken bono from
his log and searched well and thoroughly and
could find no moro that I would have boon
Justified in rmovolng. I adjusted the frag
ments and applied plaster of parts bandage ,
end it was only removed when t it had served
the purpose for which it xvas applied. As for
myself or any other surgeon of the B. & M.
railroad , asking Mrs. Eaton to sign any paper
exonerating tbo company from anything , is
false in every particular.
When Mr. Eaton loft Alma for his home I
again placed tbo limb In n piaster of pads
bandage to keep it perfectly immovable.
It is not at all astonishing that other pieces
of bono should bo found in a wound such as
ho had ; the process of suppcrration will
often show pieces that escaped observation
at the first examination.
I am yours very truly ,
JOHN M. FIUNCK , M. D. ,
Surgeon B. & M. Uullroad.
The Henrdetl Imcly.
Mr. Glulck , of L. Modry & Co. , lace im
porters at Now York , says the St. Paul
Glebe , will hereafter bo known as the
Boarded Lady from an Incident that marked
his visit to Indianapolis. Going up in the
elevator at the Urand hotel ono afternoon ho
had for a companion a bright little follow
about ton years of ago. After attentively
frogurding the texture of Gluick's blackboard
for a while , the youngster.broke out : "Say ,
jnlstor , you look like the bearded woman at
the museum. "
"I am her brother , " responded the com
tnortilal man , nnd the other passengers in the
elevator were in u broad grin at the inter-
thango of courtesies ,
Ho lUsos to Explain.
TUB HER last week published a special tele
gram from its Oakland , Neb. , correspondent
to the effect that a traveling man named
litnrks had boon arrested for drunkenness
nnd abusing n homo hired of a liveryman.
Mr. Starks , In company with his attorney ,
Balled at TJIK Bcu ofllco to say that his ar-
test grow out of Bplto work on the part ol
the liveryman , who claims that his horse am :
bugjiy were injured by reckless driving.
Staples says ho was not fined to the tune elMO
MO , but paid f l.r ) for his fun. Ho also stated
that ho would sue the liveryman for malicious
prosecution.
Appropriated Samples.
The case of Louchholm vs. Hoffstatt came
up for trial a few days ago at Loulsvlllo.
Tim matter promises to bo of interest to al
drummers and their employes , and the result
will determine , In certain particulars , their
relations to each other. Hoffstatt was ar
rested on the affidavit of Julius Louchhoim
of Joseph Louehhclm & Co. , of Philadelphia.
Ho drummed the firm's trade in Kentucky ,
soliciting orders of roady-mado clothing a !
an annual salary of ? 1,200 and expenses. Ho
alleged that the salary had not been paid ,
and the ovideuco wont to show that ho hai
disposed of samples to A. Cerf and F. Stern
converting the piocoods to his own use
This , the affiant stated , ho did fraudulently
and feloniously , having no authority so to
do.
Major Ifonney.who defended , cited author
itlcs and decisions to show that there hue
been no actual or constructive tresspass ant
thut consequently there had been no offcnst
of embezzlement or larceny , Tlio goods luu
not boon given to him to bo delivered to a
third party , and it was evident that they had
not bean obtained through fraudulent repre
mentations or intent. Thcio might be a
breach of confidence , but nothing moro ; und
whllo such conduct was reprehensible , it wiv
not for the court to determine what was bes
for the community , but to follow the con
struution of the legislative acts on the sub
Joct. Judge Lawson hold it doubtful thut a
case could bo made out.
Their Now Club Rooms ,
A handful of polite business men In dress
suits were In. waiting at the new -and oozy
'
room of tho'Commercial. . association , 0 und I
North Liberty slreot.Boston , Iho other after
noon and evening , Bays the Boston Herald ,
and welcomed all comers with n fccsrty handshake -
shako and a pleasant smile. In the front par *
or the .Tamos M. Deems musical association
discoursed good music , while on the third
leer In the well appointed assembly room a
light lunch , prepared by Mullln , the cartoror ,
was temptingly sot out.
The organization which filled up the rooms
was Incorporated on December 1st last by
George W. Clotworthy , Oliver L. Rhodci , U.
W. Cater , Jr. , J. C. Slmering and D. T. Mad-
gin. The rooms nro for tha use and enjoy
ment of business men in the city and of com
mercial travelers who visit Baltlmoro. The
apartments have been handsomely furnished ,
papered and carpeted and consist of a parlor
and reading-room , billiard-room , smoking-
room , assembly room nnd retiring-rooms.
The rooms will bo in charge of two stewards
day and night. . ,
A Temperance League ,
A number of commercial travelers in and
About Now York have organized a Ten Times
Ono is Ton club. It is a total abstinence as *
soclntlon , On the cards they distribute to
their friends is printed the following :
Total Abstinence is a Duty Man Owes Him
self , His Family , HU Country , and His God.
On the opposite face of the card was this
nicnption :
The Commercial Temperance League
Pledge.
1. To drink no intoxicating liquors.
2. To got ten others to Join the league.
Hilling on Pusses.
A commercial traveler , talking to a Cleveland -
land Loader reporter abut the failure of the
iCglslaturo to nass the 2-cout bill , relates the
following : "I xvitncsscd a very peculiar in
cident on a small Ohio railroad a couple of
weeks ago. The train was a short one , consist
ing of n combined smoking and baggage car
and an ordinary day coach. The latter was
cut off at a local station , because there were
no lady passengers. There were five gentfo-
men loft , and they all went Into the combina
tion car. The now conductor came aboard
nnd yelled 'tickets , ' and I'm blessed if everyone
ono of thcso passengers didn't hold up an
annual pass. I discovered afterwards that
ono of them was a state representative , an
other a shipper of coal , end another an ex
press agent. The other two men looked like
drummers , but why they should hold annuals
I could not find out. The conductor was
paralyzed , and I could guess that when the
legislator reached Columbus ho voted against
reducing railroad fares from a to 3 cents a
mllo. The bill should have passed , however ,
for the traveling public demand it.1
AVorktnfj For Temperance.
Among other reforms among traveling
men , says the Commercial Traveler , the
ieniperauco question is assuming Important
proportions in porno parts of the country.
Temperance leagues are being formed in
which every member besides signing the
pledge expresses his determination to secure
ton other members to the league. The plan
scums to take well and nourish.
The attention accorded the question of
temperance by the political parties seems to
give promise of some national movement in
this direction , and as traveling men are
leadnrs in other matters so they could lead
the world in this. Should they do so and
succeed in forming a league of 100,000 by the
end of the year , as is predicted they will , it
would furnish the fraternity with a' moral
leverage they have long nocdcd , by which to
raise themselves in tlio public estimation. ,
The day is gene by , however , when the
commercial traveler was the acknowledged
personification of ovcrythingthatwascusscd ,
and the gambler , the libertine and the drunk
ard is now sought elsowhcro.

The Great Wall of China.
Of course wo hud to go to tlio great
wall of China. Squeezing through the
last deep gorge and a deep rift in the
solid rock , cut out by ages of rolling
wheels and trampling foot , says a writer
in Iho Mining World , wo reached the
great frowning , doublo-bastioned gate
of stone and hard burned brick , ono
archway tumbled in. This was the ob
ject of our mission , the grout wall of
China , built 213 years before our era ;
built of great slabs of well-hewn stone ,
laid in regular courses some twenty
feet high , and then topped out with
largo hard burned bricks filled in with
earth , and closely paved on the top with
more dark , tawny brick , ramparts high
and thick and castellated for the use of
arms. Right and left , the great wall
sprang far up -mountain side , now
straight , now curved , to meet the
mountain ridge , turreted each JiOO foot ,
a frowning mass of masonry. No need
to toll you _ of this wall ; the books will
toll you it was built to keep the Tartars
out. It is twenty-five feet high by
forty thick , 1,200 miles long , with room
on top for six horses to bo driven
abreast. Nor need I toll you that for
1,100 years it kept thobo hordes at bay ;
nor that , in the main , the material
used upon it is just as good and firm
and strong as when put in place.
Twelve hundred miles of this gigantic
work , built on the rugged , craggy
mountain tops , vaulting over gorges ,
spanning wide streams , netting the
river archways with huge , hard bars of
copper , with double gates , with swing
ing doors , and bars sot thick with iron
armor , a wonder in the world to which
the old time classic seven wonder , all
gene now save the great Pyramid , were
toys , The great pyramid has 85,000,000
cubic feet , the wall 0J50,000,000 ! cubic
feet. An engineer in Soward's party
hero some years ago gave it as his opin
ion that the cost of this wall , figuring
labor at the sumo rate would moro than
equal thut of the 100,000 miles of rail-
rend in the United States. The in a to r-
iul it contains would build a wall
straight around the globo. Yet this
was done in twenty years.

HAUGHTY EMILIA.
V. Vlx : The old duke and duchess of
Konvonutt had two'lovely ' daughters.
Emilia , the elder , -was n. proud , stately
beauty , aristocratic nifd majestic , with
a lovely countenance , , dark , beseeching
oycs , and magnlflcch't Imlr of the
golden color of ovor-yfpo wheat. Olult-
otla , the younger , ivas not beautiful ,
nor grand , nor impressive ; she was but
n pretty , unaffectedtsprlghtly maiden ,
whom ono gladly tow in the high ,
gloomy salons of thoXJnstlo Florituonti ,
as ono is pleased by d-llttlo green sprig
in a bouquet of stately roses.
As the Bonvonutls' possessions were
rich and princely , there were always
many guests in the castle , cspdcially ns
they were related to or oh intimate
terms with all who "wore noble and In
fluential in Rome. Naturally , there
fore , the beautiful Emolia Bcnvomiti
had no lack of suitors. Songs were sung
to her , harps sounded In her praise ,
and the color she admired , the tender
red of the peach blossom , glistened in
the ribbons of many a gay jacket , mid
in the rosettes of Innumerable borcllos.
And if the troop of pleaders about the
beautiful Emilia bccamo too thick , the
unnoticed ones rather sighingly in
deed , and with a somewhat soured
mien betook themselves to the little ,
unassuming Giuliutta , who often said
laughingly to her commanding sister :
"I receive all the love-sick ones who
cannot find a place by your side , nnd
nil the verses which you find super
fluous. In most of thorn I find my muno
in place of ono stricken out your own.
Emilia. How fluttering to mo that isf
And should I love any of thcso men ?
But what matters it ? I care for you
none the less on that account ? "
And with this the little senseless
Giulietlu would fall on Emilia's neck ,
and the proud , beautiful girl would
tenderly kiss her sister and comfort
her.
her.But
But it was evident that not one of all
the young , brilliant , rich , noble or
witty "love-sick ones" could console
himself with the thought that the eye
of the proud Emilia looked on him with
approval , or that her smile gave him
hope. "With tliis fair being too proud
to love , too ambitious to choose any
thing loss than a crown ? It was possi
ble , but very saddening to the unfor
tunate picadors.
On one sweet September day , when
the ro es feent their languishing per
fume over the earth , and the whole
world scorned n ucst ot still , holy joy.
Princess Emilia and Pier Molina stood
together in tv shady byway of tlio park.
Ho was come from the hunt , and looked
handsomer , brighter , moro smiling than
over in his picturesque dress , his gun
over his shoulder , with his flushing
cheeks and glistening teeth. Emilia
had been singing , "Yiol.i do Gamba. " a
love song of Petrarcbls.iuid Pier Molina
had been stealthily listening. Shu had
suddenly caught sight of the listener's
shadow on the ground' , as a puff of wind
blow aside the branches which concealed
him. "Sho had stopp'c'd ' short and turned
around angrily. But ns aho recognized
Pier ull her anger disappeared and'she
smiled at him. Herns somewhat taken
back , had excused himself and remarked ,
with a sigh , how' ' true was what
no had sung of the pains of love.
A laugh Ilowed from her beautiful
lips , and two suns shone from her oycs.
"Oh , how you sigh , Piorino ! Do you ,
then , feel the pains 6j love ? "
A llamc spread over his face.
"Yes"ho baid'and'falghed ' once moro.
"And you love nnhappily ? " asked
Emilia.
His bold , bright eyes sought the
ground.
"Ah , yesl When wo love where wo
should not , look up to what is far above
us , yearn for what wo can nevcrattain. "
Brighter gleamed Iho suns in her
grand cjcs as they rested on the hand
some youth. A great joy or a good for
tune seemed to speak from them.
' Oh , if you loved oven a queen ,
Fiorina , why should you bo downcast ?
And if you yearned for the proudest
woman , who'knows whether you would
plead in vain ? "
"Really ! " ho exclaimed , full of hopo.
"Then oven a princess , could "
"If bho loved you , said the Princess
Emilia , and a world lay in her laugli a
world of yearning.
"But her relatives , " said Piorino.
"What does love care for thorn ? " an
swered Emilia , boftly , "tho bravo love
of man and the fearless lovn of woman ?
If you love , bo bravo ! Ask the maiden ,
and if shosmilo upon you , bcur her to
your horse in the dark night und lice
away with your happiness. And if the
relative * are angry , they will not bo so
always. Return a happy pair , and the
hardest kinsmen's heart will be soft
ened. "
"Do you think bo ? " cried Pier , beam
ing joyfully.
Then ho bent his handsome face over
her white , fair bunds , placed a warm
kiss upon it ana disappeared.
The next day the wildest consterna
tion and alarm raged in the Castle
Florimonti. Pier Molina had. lied and
had taken with him the Princess Giul-
lotta !
Years had passed. Eight long years.
The duke and ducecss were old and ill.
Princess Emilia remained unwedded ,
Shu was btill wonderfully beautiful , but
a veil of gloom boomed spread over her
beauty. She had become prouder and a
bitter contempt for all had come to hor.
The duke and duchess had not softened
toward the "recreant daughter. " The
old Molina had boon tvrned off with
scorn , All the pride in the vain old
hearts was centered in Emilia. Giuliotta
Molina was cast off and unknown , She
must have starved with her husband ,
had not an old aunt warmed to them
nnd allowed them a ( little income. So
they had lived for some years in Rome
in moderate circumstances , good or bad
as thut might be , bomolimos unhappy ,
looked down upon , pitied ; "naturally
most miserable , " as the proud Emilia
contentedly nnd grudgingly thought.
For her proud heart , could not forgot its
withered love and , > vhat true woman's
heart can ?
At last the old aunt died , nnd loft her
property to Giuliotta and her husband.
Then Pier Molina said to his sweet ,
gentle wlfo , who" had shared the
troubled times with ihim BO patiently
and smilingly : L . *
"Giuliotta , I thinU jt is now time to
go to your relative and beg them to
pardon you. I know your heart is 511
with its pain , although you have never
complained of it to me. "
"What had I to complain of to you
Piorino ? " said Giuliotta , with smiling
tears , kissing the cheeks of her tender
and handsome husbahd , "I have been
so happy with you.
PIe Kissed hor.
"Now that wo no longer struggle
with want , Unco wo are rich , wo can go
to your relatives , " he continued , "for
they cairnot think wo are concerned
about tholr money ; only their forgive
ness , their love , do 'wo wish. And
then , have wo not our boy , Giulio ? Ho
will speak for us and &ofton them. "
So they came with the little Giulio
and Father Molina , on ono fine Soptem-
auy , to the Castle Florimonti , when the
roses sweetly perfumed the whole
earth. An old , faithful servant , who
had over loved the dignorina Guilietta ,
ushered , them unannounced into to ea-
TEH DOLLARS ,
The incessant cry of "bargains , " "groat sacrifices , " etc. , etc. , is hoard all over , lint the
people discriminate WHO is ADVERTISING THE BARGAINS. In all our advertisements we ad

' you to look at it.
One Price Only. No Deviation.
Corner i4.th and Douglas Streets. Omaha ,
Ion , where were the old pair with Prin
cess Erailin.
Father Molina entered first , with the
pretty little guy hearted hey , while
Pier and Giulletta lingered at the door.
The old man advanced with the child.
" ! " ho cried
"Granpapa , grandmamma ,
stretching out his hands , though a lit
tle shyly.
The old duke would have risen , full
of emotion and surprise , but a glance
from his embittered , invalid wife kept
him motionless in his chair. The
duchess had become deadly pale , and
her glance fell cold us ice upon the lit
tle boy. But the lovely child picked
up heart , ran to the old lady , and plac
ing his little arms around her nock
said :
"Grandmamma , dear grandmamma ,
you will not send mo away' ? Mamma
tolls mo you are as good as an angel ,
and will beg grandpapa to love usaguin.
Forgive mo for being in the world. I
could not help ill"
With that he kissed the old dame's
lips , and her grudge and pain melted.
Can a grandmother resist the tender
kiss of grandchild ?
And now Pier and Giulietta came
forward ho so courtly and full of pride
in his dear wife , who smiled and wept.
And Princess Emilia , who. holding a
piece of hand-work motionless before
nor , had stood from the first moment
fixed and cold by the chair of her
mother , now smiled at her sister and
her husband. She would rather have
died than let him murk her pain and
misery. Ah , what a heart-wrung smile
was hers !
Forgiveness and joy came into heart
and home. But Princess Emilia loft the
sunshine of this joy for the gloomy
shade of the cloister. There she at last
followed her lonely heart to the grave.
Only the sorrowful , gloom-breathing
sonnets , which she left in a leather-
bound volume , and which trembled like
a biirli of helpless love , almost like the
pailied cry of some wounded being , re
vealed to a great-grandson of the fam
ily the sorrow of her fato. And it is the
great-grandson who bus written down
the history of her sorrow as it came to
him from thcso sonnets.

A prominent official of the treasury
department , who lias the reputation of
being a connoisseur of wines , says u
Washington correspondent , had us n
guest the other day at his table a prom
inent South Carolina judge. The judge's
glass was filled several times by his host
with some exceedingly fine sauterne , of
which the host was particularly proud.
The judge drank the contents of his
glass down at a single gulj ) every time ;
still ho did not seem to enjoy his wine
very much. The host turning to him
finally said :
"How do you like that wlno , judgoV
It is borne that was sent to mo from
Franco not long ago. "
The judge filled his glass once moro
and did not sat it down until ho had
drained its last drop ,
"It tastes first rate , " ho answered at
iast , " .but somehow or auothor it doesn't
quito seem to roach. "
The host laughed and handing down a
bottle of whisky , said , "Suppose you try
that. "
And from the expression of tbo judtro's
face it was quite apparent that It bud

No one responded for two or three
minutes , and then the widow got up.
"I haven't ' much to say on this sad
occasion , " she said , "but I would like to
announce that business will bo carried

A Square Statement by a Carpenter.
"For years I had a c7iest trouble
amounting to nothing short of consump
tion. I saw how others in like condi
tion hai } been cured by the use of Dr.
Piorco's Golden Medical Discovery , and
resolved to test its merits on my own
case. The results are so plane as hardly
to require a biMock or any /cr-niont <
in favor of this grata remedy. It does
aid it claims ! It builds up the system ,
supports and strengthens where others
fail. " Ho adz : "My recovery , which
is now on n sure foundation , hinges en
tirely on the compass of this wonderful
Restorative , having tried other
remedies without a bit of relief. "
