Trouble Between an Attorney nnd a
Conductor.
There Is trouble between n South Omaha
attorney and a conductor on the dummy , and
it will require a police court d < cision to
straighten it out , The plaintiff will bo At
torney S. W. Makepeace , who tells the fol
lowing story : llu had a through ticket from
Council HlulTs to South Omaha Saturday
night and it was taken up. After passing
Omaha the conductor i > g iln asked him for a
ticket and was told that it hud already been
collected. This was not satisfactory , and
the train was stopped and the attorney
with ' ' violence " ho
ejected , 'unnecessary , an
claims.
Conductor Gaines is the defendant , and his
story is as follows : ' -When near Shecly's
I oslcd a passen/er for his tickut. Hos.iid
ho was coming through on a trip ticket from
Council Bluffs. J asked linn for the check
which wo always give , according to company
rules , on taking up such tickets , and ho said
ho had not received out1. I told him ho would
have to pay his faro or get off , and ho said if
I would stop the train ho would. 1 stopped
It and ho got off , without any violence being
used or being necessary. "
Attorney Makepeace walked in from
Shecly'8 and swore out a warrant against
Conductor Gabies for assault and battery ,
and the latter was arrested on his y o'clock
run. lloat once procured bonds for his ap
pearance Monday' morning , and the train
went on only ten minutes lato.

Hard ins yesterday and wore- defeated by a
score of II to ! .
He had a regulation diploma , ho had a grip
sack , hu hail an umbrella and ho hud a
doublo-dockud load of South Omaha tanglo-
foot , and so he had to be run in. Ho could
only plead in extenuation that ho was a doc
tor from Iowa looking for a site and that his
name was Richard Itawlin. The fact that ho
came from Iowa put him down us u sleeper ,
nnd ho was told to slcip. Ho skipped.
An attache of the London circus killed
time between drinks yesterday by tearing up
liis wife's wardrobe. As ho was only mar
ried two months , and as ho will probably
have to foot the bill , there wore no arrests ,
but a good deal of excitement.
The boaru of trade met Saturday night nnd
transacted routlno business. The accounts of
Treasurer Carroll , who recently resigned ,
were found to bo correct , and the $33.21 that

retary. Several other members paid in their
assessments , and the secretary wa ? instruct
ed to book the delinquents. 1C. H. Howlund.as
chairman of a special committee , introduced
J. E. 15mdick and C. 10. Howler , who propose
to start a wire fonoo fnotory In South Omaha.
Two residents of the Thinl ward had offered
two acres of ground us an inducement for
them to come , but they asked for a cash
bonus of $ Ir ! , > liO in addition , in order to erect
the building necessary. After making the
request they tool : the lirst train for Omaha ,
and the matter wits discussed and held in
abeyance , the impression being that two
acres of South Omaha real estate was
bonus enough for the enterprise. A
letter from an Alabama manufacturer
asking for Information regarding the cliuncos
afortilizlngostablishmontwould havoto make
money was read and referred. Tlio re
mainder of the evening was spent in talking
about the grading of the various streets and

Manager Seleo must have read the riot act
to the ball loam , Judging from the manner
in which they gathered themselves together
and played ball yoaterday afternoon. If it
wasn't that it was probably the touching up
the press gave them. *
Anyway , It was a er.ind game , and there
w.is u magnificent crowd on hand to see the
sport.
Omaha played like her wonted self , cleanly ,
neatly and with that pristine vim that
marked their Inaugural games.
Lovett was almost impregnable , and the
game he pitched w.w ono of the best ever
seen on the local grounds. Ho bud the veloc
ity of a catapult , and the most deceptive and
tantalizing of curves. Then , as usual , ho
used his head , and the best the brawny war
riors of the Sioux could do was to hit him
for throe sii.glcs. HD struck out eight.
"Woll , well , that'll do for a st irterl" ex
claimed Crooks , as Hums started tlio music
by taking > lrst on balls.
The crowd laughed , but remained
rplii'twhcn the poet died in an attempt to
ste'al second.
Annis retired from short to Ilrt , but
Crooks wont clear round to second on n
fumble and wild throw by I'hil Keccius. Hut
he was left , Lovett hitting to old man Force
and dying at lirst.
i'Ve.sb Air. Siu-ed opened up for the Corn
Hunkers by gutting bis base on a fumble by
Miller.
Tlie visitors from Sioux City chocrod lust
ily. Hut only for a moment , for before Mr.
Siieod know what had happened , Lovttt
caught him napping , and tlio umpire called
"Como in. "
It was Omaha people who did the cheering
here.
here.After
After Kooeius had boon put out from
Crooks to O'Connoll , Powell made u hit and
stole second and went on lo third by Crooks
allowing NuiUo's throw to get by him. He
got no further , though , for Phelan's line
drive was prettily cared for by McUurr.
That was Hue work.
Neither side scored In the second or third ,
but. In the fourth the Omahas struck one. ol
their cyclonic streaks of hitting , and before
they lot up no less than eight blue legs had
ran round the circuit.
Here's how the old thing worked.
Lucky Crooks was given a life by that
old revolutionary hero , D.ivy Force. Ho
Htolo second , and came homo with the
lirst run on Lovett's healthy drive
out toward Whitely. O'Connoll then
batsgod the ball to center , and while Gitnms
was juirgling with it among tlio clover tops ,
he reached scemid and Tom third. On Mil
ler's out from Force to Powell , Lovett run
homo w.tli the second run.
The Omalus were now warmed up , and
they'll bear watching when they get this
way.
"I'asto her , McGarr ! " cried Mr. Lynch , of
Now York , and an old time ball player , as
"Cllilnpoy" stopped up to the plate.
And ho did paste it , for a single that went
hi/King out to left like a shot. Of course
O'GMinoll came in.
Indeed that was line work. McGarr , with
that dash and audacity that has always
marked the playing of his old confreres of
the St. Louis Browns , stole second on the
ill st ball pitched after ho had reached first.
But this did not satisfy him , and Just for the
fun of the thing , ho stole third.
How tlio people did whoop.
Cionay camonoxt , and after rubbing his
hly-wliito hands around in the dust at the
plato a moment , ho raised up and smashed
the sphere right out to the exact spot where
McGarr had lanUod It.
McGarr scored.
On Nugle's safe hit , Cooney went
to third , and homo on Burns' similar drive ,
Nnglc taking third. Tlio pout stole second ,
and then a moment later Naglo ran homo on
a passed ball.
Billy Annls , profiting by the example of
his prodccc.isois , hit a vicious grounder oafo
past Force and Burns was home. Annis
stole second , anil on Crooks' who cinno to
the bat a second time in this innings out
from Keccius to Powell , reached third , llo
scored on a passed ball ; Lovett , with mercy
in his heart , went out from third to lirst.
That was a gre.it Innings.
It was now a sharp , brilliant fight up to
the eighth and then the Omahog's tired of
the monotony , and desiring to listen to the
sweet chin music from the grand stand , went
in again and stirred the animals up.
McGarr , who played a most brilliant all
round game , was hit by the ball , and us u
matter to bo expected stele second. Coonn.y'a
safe hit sent him to third , and Naglo's line
two cushion ip'iVQ to tlio loft Held carriages
brought them both in. Naglo's foal tickled
Burns , and his classic features were
wreathed in smiles as ho Jauntily faced
Sioblo.
"Ono strike , " called Cusick.
Thopootscuwlcd.
Then the noxl ball ho caught on the end of
his bat and lie sent it sincl'ig merrily out to
Join Naglo's. Of course Naglo eamo homo
on the hit. Then on Aunts' out. Burns
reached third and tallied on u passed ball.
That was beautiful slugging and the audi
ence shouted forth its approval.
Whitely. for the visitors , hit a hot grounder
to Crooks , who made a circus stop , but In his
cngnrnots threw wild to O'Connoll , and the
ball becoming lost among the hay cocks in
front ot'tho bleaching boards , the big Corn
Busker lumbered clear home.
Tlio Omabiis made no runs in the ninth ,
while the visitors got their second and last.
Snood hit sate , stele second , made third on
a wild pitch , and scored on Powell's second
nafo drive. That was the best they could do ,
however , and the game ended Ui to y.
It was tilhiP contest.
He is the official score :

of tho'cotintry never looked better , and with
another seasonable rain or two the corn crop
will simply bo immense , and consequently

safe and much of it harvested. Oats promises
about forty or forty-live bushels per acres
and wheat eighteen to twenty-live bushels ,
Potatoes are abundant and of good quality.

The York-Ulysses Ilnll Game.
YOIIK , Neb. , .inly 31. [ Corronpondonco of
TUB Biu. : ] The special telegram to THE
Bui : from Ulysses on Thursday , headed
"UtiUcd in u How , " docs a grave injustice to
thn York club and visitors who wont to
Ulysses on the day mentioned to play bull.
Tlio fact is a gang of toughs were present
wno were permitted by the York authorities
to insult and annoy the visitors from the out
set. Instead of Hagan , of York , pulling a
shooter on a bny it is necessary to state that
Mr. Kugan is a one-armed man , and only
promised to pull his pistol and defend him
self from over forty drunken thugs who
were openly threatening to murder him on
the spot. The other statements in the
special are as false as this ono. Tlio row
was perhaps the most disgraceful in the his
tory of Nebraska and will always bo sin
cerely regretted by the better clement of
Ulysses , which in this case was in a hopo-
lct > s minority.

John W. Gnrrutt'H Daughter.
Philadelphia Itui-ord : "Mis * Mary
Ourrott , tlio daughter of the founder of
the Baltimore < fc Ohio railroad system ,
is mi extraordinary woman , "said'a gen
tleman well acquainted with the facts.
' and , btjt that she in a woman , would
to-day bo president of that road. "
Miss Garrett hay never obtruded her in
dividuality in the management of tlio
great property which her father loft at
his death , but her influence and ca
pacity have nevertheless bot'n felt and
recognized by uvorynuo who Ins como
in contact with the financial inanatru-
niontof the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad
company. For many years before her
father's death she was his chief assist
ant. Her love for her father was the
ruling passion of her life , and her de
votion to him was the admiration of
her friends and the dosiiair of those
who sought to win lior hand in mar-
riago.
Miss Garrett to-day , although few
persons know it , controls ami manages
the Garrett interest in the Baltimore &
Ohio railroad , and has for some time
boon the most potential faction in the
manipulation of the Interests of that
great corporation. She is thoroughly
acquainted with till the dotuils of the
business of Iho road and its financial
status , and has always boon looked upon
as one of the most sagacious advisors.
Although personally directing thn
management of a property worth not
lexs than 4i 0OUO,000 , Miss Carroll is al
most unknown to business men. be
cause her line sense of modesty and
true womanly reserve will not permit
her to assume tin individual and per
sonal control which both her capacity
for financial affairs and direct control of
millions of money would enable her
to do.
There is no woman in the Uniled
Slates who can command inoro ready
cash than Miss Garrett. Her knowledge
of the road and its management gives
her a position in Iho councils of Unit
corporation not possessed by any other
individual. When her father was liv
ing Miss Garret was his private secre
tary , his host advisor and his most
trusted friend , even above any of the old
gentleman's sons. It was in this ca
pacity that she obtained her knowledge
of the road and her insight into its
financial affairs. After the death of
bur fattier , Miss Onrrott's intluenco
over her brother , Kobort Garrett , was
so marked that it became si matter of
current talk in Baltimore. But there
were certain theories hold by her
brother which even the inlluonco which
she hold over him could not success
fully combat. When the schemes which
led to the invocation of the aid of the
Dronol syndicate culminated Kobort
Garrelt saw the wisdom of his sister's
councils , which tie had failed to follow ,
and ho pratically surrendered to her
the management of his interest in the
road. Whoa ho started on his tour
n rim ml the world his sister followed and
overtook him at San Francisco , where
ho was induced to give her the control
( if all of his interests in the Baltimore
& Ohio Ittulroad company.
Recently , when the syndicate which
hail helped the Baltimore & Ohio out of
the dilUculties in which it had unwit
tingly been pluiifjcd began to nagglo
about tlio commissions and threatened
to place the road In an embarrassing
position , Miss Garrett quietly brushed
thorn all aside , put up the needed
cash and saved the crcdit-of the com
pany. Since the rccont doatli of her
brother , T. Harrison Garrett , Miss
Mary Garrett's control of tlio Garrett
estate has bccomo practically unlimited
during Kobort Garrott's absence from
the United States.
Miss Garrett is a most unassuming
lady and would never bo taken for a
great financier , as she is , at lirst siirht.
She is not fond of notoriety , and in
manners and habits is a most .lomestio
and homo-loving woman. She worships
her father , and her most ardent hope is
to see the great road which ho built
and brought to such great importance
kept up to tlio position where ho loft it
a iid perpetuated as ono of the grout in
stitutions of the country.
A Lively Tenant.
Philadelphia Record : "Oh , you're a
deputy sheriff , are you , and you've como
to place a notice on this housoV" said
Mrs. Hannah Duffy , u young woman who
weighs 'J")0 pounds , has a muscle like a
pugilist , and who lias boon ocouoying
two houses at Nos. l il and lil2G ! Belmont -
mont avenue for the last seven years
without paying any rent.
"Yes , ma'am , I have1 meekly re
sponded the deputy , who wan rather a
small man.
"Well , now , I guohS not , t-aid the
woman ; "and now you got. " She made
a grab for the man , mil ho escaped , and ,
hoi/.ing u rolling pin , she chased him
across the lots , but ho could beat the
woman , who was handicapped by her
weight. Ono month ago Walter
a clerk in his father's real estate olllco ,
at No. 0015 Walnut btroot , bought the
house , and on Saturday vluitcd the
tenant to notify tier to v.ietito the prom
ises. Mrs. Duil'y , with arms akimbo ,
met young lloss , who is a small young
man , with about the bamobort of hoarti-
nc s that a cannibal giant greets a
dwarf.Vlion Hess stated his errand
the woman changed from an angel to a
demon.
" < Jh , ho ! you want the house , do you ? "
she burennied , and Hiiilohlng the luckless -
loss young man by Iho collar , ran him
out.sido. "Don't you como bothering
mo again , " she cried , as ho disappeared
from the neighborhood. Tlio woman's
blood became warmed up yesterday ,
and she called at the real estate olllce
to see Mr. Hess. During the three
hours which she was compelled to wait
for the firm to appear , Mrs. Duffy
aimir-ed hernolf by tin-owing things
about the room , ami , as she .xprossod
it , "having a good timo. " When the
younger lloss arrived ho was chafed
away , nnd , booking Magistrate Durham ,
secured a warrant for the woman's ar
rest. A constable marched bravely to
the ofllco , but when Mrs. Duffy said.
"Young man , you had bettor go homo , '
ho took tier advice and wont away , re
turning Inter with several policemen.
The woman ' . .as undecided for a moment
whether she would fight tlio olllcors ,
but finally agreed to accompany them.
Magistrate Durham Font her to prison
in default of 3-)00 bail.
During the years that she has been
occupying the houses on Belmont
venue bhe has torn down the stairs and
chopped Iho flooring for lirowood , until

sleeping apartment of Mr. Kvtins and
his wife is located in the rear of the

tlioir attention was attracted by the

who had provided him.-olf with a re

saw a man creeping towards tlio sif > ,
which contained several thousand i ol-

It was pretty severe. Mr. Kvaiis says

A llcataurniit I'or Women.
Now York Sun : A novel restaurant
has boon opened at Sixth avenue and
Kitty-ninth street under the title of the
Woman's Co-operutivo restaurant. It
is run by the Woman's Now York Club
and ( . 'o-oporativo exchange , and ac
cording to signs which appear in the
horse cars and elsewhere It is a rest
aurant run by women , in tlio interest of
women , and for women. Seats , how
ever , "are reserved for men.1' It was
started by a Mrs. Pike , once a well-to-
do woman , under the pnlronrge of a
number of wealthy ladies , among whom
is Mrs , l-'dwnrd W. Lambert , the wife of
the chief examining physician
of the Kquitnblo Life Assurance . o-
e'.ety. . Mrs. Pike is a woimui of enter
prise and energy. She conceived the
idea that a restaurant run on the cooperative
erative plan ought to pay. and wont
ahead to prove it. She applied to the
directors of the Sixth Avenue Surface
railroad for the rental of a largo store
on the cast side of the avenue , next to
the corner of Fifty-nintli street , and
when she had explained the object for
which it was to bo used they let her
have It for onu-third of its real value.
Then .she had it lilted up. Although it
has been running only six months the
success of her scheme has been demon
strated , and it is already solf-suppurl-
ing.Ono
Ono of the ideas of the exchange is
to furnish employment for worthy poor
women at homo. By paying Jl any
woman may bccomo n member , and shb
can cook at homo some of the things
bold in the restaurant. All sorts of
foods , such as crullers , cakes and bread
are already supplied in this manner.
Mrs. Pike said that the only obstacle
encountered so far has boon the dilll-
culty of obtaining good waitresses , A
table d'hote breakfast and dinner at ! ! 0
cents has been started and is well patronized -
ronizod , many men availing themselves
of the reserved se.uts.
A membership in the exchange will
eventually include many other privil
eges. The lloor above the restaurant
is to bo devoted to the bale of decora
tive articles , and there will also bo a
library ami club rooms. Mrs. Pike
hopes to bo able to start a factory even
tually for the manufacture of various
kinds of dry goods on the same plan ,
and has boon encouraged to do so by
cvoral loading houses in the city.
A OcttyslMirR Girl.
Augusta ( Ga. ) Chronicle : Richard
"Peters , of Atlanta , was at Gettysburg.
Besides attending the reunion there ho
had on hand another mission.
During the war Mr. Peters was at
tached to Gen. George Stewart's bri
gade of Ewell's corps , and was at Gettys
burg. About ii o'clock of the afternoon
during the hardest lighting ho was
given tin order by GCIJ. Ewoll to carry
over to Gon. Hill. Ho blurted elf on his
mission at a mud gallop. As ho crossed
a road near a farm house a woman's
voice hailed him.
"Look hero , " she cried , raising the
window as she spoko. Mr. I'oters
turned his head without cheeking hi.s
horse's speed. Ho saw the fair face of
a beautiful woman not fifty yards from
him. Her sleeves had ( dipped down ,
disclosing a finely formed arm. She
raised tin old , long , single barreled
gun , took deliberate aim at him , and
without another word , fired , Mr. Pet
ers heard the bail whibtloovor his head
and the woman's voice cry : "I missed
yon this time , but I will hit you the
next timohuro.1
Mr. Peters says she could not have
boon over twenty. The house was in
range of the lire of both armies. When
lie returned there was no higu of life
about the house. Ho had not been llioro
since Iho battle. Yesterday he started
out to look up the house and the comely
maiden , who is now. if living , no doubt
a buxom matroii. Ho bays ho will not
return to the south without finding her
or what has become of hor. It is need
less to say ho bears no enmity.

the state that the tedious legislative investi
gation of the state university nnd Us moral

commission , which was received by the
governor yesterday , is regarded us a general
vindication of the oftlccr.s of the university
and a rcbuko to the slanders upon the school
and the city In which It is situated. The
committee admit that there were number
of saloons there running In dollanco of law ,
but they state that now the number has boon
reduced to a very few. and those , itisctti
ninUil , are to bo closed out soon. The gen
eral atmosphere of tlio place is pronounced
good. The people are Intelligent , cultured
and law abiding , making a fine locality for a
school of high grado. This part of the report
was called out by the reckless eharge.s that
have been made to the effect that tlio moral atmosphere
mosphore of Iowa City was so coiilnmlimtnii ;
that the school ought to be moved away. The
investigation has been expensive , It has boon
Icdlcnifi , it has boon a great bore to those who
were obliged to conduct It. But It has done-
a good deal of ( jvod , although not discovering

tlio greatest inconsistency to organize n pro

it , especially in northern Iowa. So far they
are not meeting with much success , and it is
doubtful if they poll over n thousand votrs
in the entire state. Hov. U. H. Lucas , of this
