The county commissioners decided yester day to present Sheriff Coburn with a bill for the use of the county jail and for the services of Jailor and guards in the lodging and keep ing of certain- prisoners not belonging tt Douglas county. Chairman O'Kecffo said the board mean business , and if the claim bo rejected by tin sheriff It will bo carried into court. Tin board's resolution is retroactive and claims more than a third of the sheriff's receipts foi those prisoners during the past two years The receipts for the first eighteen mouth wore nearly § 2,300. No report has been mad 01 the other six months. As already statec in Tun Hen , Sheriff Coburn has been fortify ing himself and will light the claim In tin courts. Tlitj issue has been joined , and : IciJal contest seems inevitable. The affair that led Mr , D. L. Shiino to resign sign as superintendent of construction of tin new county hospital has como to light. SOJJK of the men laying brick side by ouo ! dill theii 'work ' unevenly. One Vmt in a thicker layci Si-monai1 between the bricks than another The consequence was that a course of Uriel was four inches higher In ono place than h the section adjoining laid by another man The attention of the contractors was caller to this slipshod work , but they refused ti rectify It. Instead of notifying the comuils eloners of the trouble and insisting on i workmanlike Job , Superintendent Shane re Blgncd. This seems like a str.uigo action but ono of the commissioners is authority 101 the statement. The defective work Is the result of hast nnd inexcusable. The contractors have bcoi pushing their bricklayers and have not givci them time to do their work properly. It is cstl mated that n piece of wall containing 8,000 t 10.000 brick will have to bo pulled down nui rebuilt. At least Hyan & Walsh will not b paid unless they correct the blunder.

At the Howard street M. E. church Nov. Charles W. Savidgo spoke yesterday morn- ng from the text , "Create in me a clean icart , oh God , nnd renew a right spirit within no. " Psalms 51 and 10. Our subject tnis nornliig Is n "clean heart. " This is n sub- cct I nm very much Interested in. For the ast two Sabbaths 1 huvo been preaching on ho Holy Spirit \vltnosslng to our pardon , jut this morning I take a hluhcr step and ftpcuk'nf the heart cleansed from sin. I could use other words than a clean heart. Jesus talks about the pure In heart. The words sanctillcation and holiness are also bible terms. 1 care not so much about the word as I do about the fact , for "without lolinoss no man shall see the Lord. " Notice first David prays for a clean heart , n something needed both by the unregmio- rate and the pardoned soul. Those who are not born again need clean hearts. Jeremiah says tlio heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked "who can know it" and in Matthew Id : 19 wo read , "Out of the heart proceeds evil thoughts , murders , ulnlterlcs , fornications , tliofts , false wit ness , blasphemies. " This is the record igiiitmt the heart of the natural man. The regenerate men also needs a pure heart. Some one asks , "Is not the pure heart given him at conversion ! " Wo answer , a iircut work is done nt conversion. Ills trans gressions are forgiven ; ho is adopted Into the family of God , but you know from expo- riniico that some of the roots of the old Adamic nature are still in the heart. And you have what you call your besetting sins ind this in our judgment is seen In Romans xil , 1 , and In 1. Corinthians. The apostle liuro spualts to Justillud souls. Now you will ask what more could Do done than to have the toul pardoned nnd adopted Into the family of God , and 1 answer when the heart is pure the roots of sin have been dug up and thrown away and the temple of the heart cleansed and tilled with love. Let mo illustrate tills subject from bible examples. Take Jacob when ho went away from home. Ho was converted at Luz. That night ho had a stone for his pillow. He went on down to work for his Uncle Labon and ho cheated the old man twenty-one years nnit Laben cheated Jacob for twenty-one years. "Great work for Christians. " Now ho gets ready to go back home. To-morrow he is to meet Esau. Ho Is afraid for his life. lie knows ho has been tricky and is not ready to dlo. Ho Implores God to bless him. Jacob then and there received the second touch and his old tricky self is dead forever. David Is another example. He is a king and a servant of God. Lust is his besotting sin. Ho stands with his foot on the neck of his enemy , but in an evil hour his enemy gets the better of him and David Is an adul terer and a murderer. Now read the fifty- llrst psalm and hear David pray. Our text is his prayer. God gives him a clean heart. Head the sixth chapter of Isaiah and you will see that that prophet is au example of the subject wo have in hand. This blessing of n clean heart is for each of us. Let us seek and obtain it. I met a man this week In the last part of his life. Ho had once enjoyed this blessing. Great disappointments had come to him. Ho had made and lost three fortunes. The most awful visitations of God's providence had como to him. This great blessing from God comes to those who need it most. In closing you will ask , how can I obtain this clean heart ! A # uttermost faith nnd au uttermost consecration will bring an utter most salvation. An intellectual faith will not bring this clean heart , but the crying and the wrestling soul cannot bo turned away. _ Without health lifo has no sunshine.

Train No. 2 on the Union Pacific , which was attacked by robbers at Dana's tank near Edson , Saturday morning , arrived in Omaha yesterday nt 10:15 : a. m. It consisted of twelve cars , three of which contained fruit. The engineer and firemen who had pulled her m from Grand Island were seen. The latter had been told of the attempted rob bery by the stoker whom ho had ruliovod.but Icncw nothing of his own knowledge of the affair. The engineer was in ignorance of any highway robbery having been attempted. The train was light in passengers and only n few remained of those who were in the cars at the time of the attack. These said that it was all over when the knowledge of It reached them. Some had proposed taking part In an attempt to arrest the would-be robbers , but the more timid opposed the scheme nnd the backing up of the tiain tc Edson set aside all desire for a chase. The express messenger who was on the train at the time of the attack , got off at Cheyenne. Ho was succeeded by u man named Decker who accompanied the car to Council Hluffs. The latter said that the other express messenger looked out for his cash and the llrst ho U new of the occurrence was when the brakcman , Tillman , ran past the car crying that ho was shot. Up 4lt ) mat time , ho thought the shots U'oro those ol hunters , sl.5.oiiS it was quite er.Tiy " in the morning. The cry of the wounded brakcman , however , satisfied him tnat it was human game instcat of antelope that ho had biought down , Decker refused to tell how much money the car contained , although the packages whlel i'liu 13EU reporter saw taken from the safe satisfied him that there was bufllciont then 0 make the attack an object to the dcspcra docs. docs.E. V. Holt was the only man in the mal : car. Ho was "subbing" for the head clcn who runs through from Ogdcn to C'ounci HlufTs. Ho heard some ono shout , "Throw up your hands , you . " Ho then thruv open ouo of the side doors of tin couch , and as ho did so , revolve ; sl'ots were heard , some of them being ilrci from a point about two rods from tlio car Holt says that ho hud no deslro to bo perforated rated and immediately shut his door nm locked It. There were about twenty shot ! fired and Holt afterwards learned that nearly all of these were fired at the brakcman us In was hurrying back to his car. The icsto his story corroborated that which has alroad ; been told In the telegraphic columns of Tin Uuu. _ In another column of this issue will b < found an entirely now and novel specimen men of attractive advertising.

Cuttliij ; Affray at u Card Table. Two men were having a llttlo game c high-five in a South Thirteenth street salooi late lust night. They were fairly we ! dressed and conducted themselves quietly Without a word of warning ono of thor reached over the table and slashed his con pan ion across the face with u knife , makin an ugly gasn. They escaped quickly , bet evidently fearing arrest. A laborer , by th name of Paul Johnson , said that a shoi tlino before the cutting occurred ho hear them disputing over the dividing of n sum c money. The supposition is that they wei thieves who "fell out" over the division ( their swag , and not wishing to bourrcsl on any account loft as quickly and quietly i possible.

The Hock Island train which arrived nt Council llluffs at 8:15 : yesterday morning had attached to it private car 010 , bearing as Its passengers President Charles Francis Adams , his nrtvnto secretary , Edward Can- field and Mrs. Kobort Codman , of Uoston , who arc the guests of Mr. Adams on his western trip. Mr. Ames , ono of the officials of the road , was expected hero with Mr. Adams , but owing to sonic circumstances unknown to the local ofllcials ho did not ar rive. rive.Tho The car bearing the chief officials was de tached from the Kock Island train at the transfer depot and a special engine took It over the bridge. The passengers went at once to the Mlllard and after breakfast sent their official luggage , such as typewriters , to the headquarters , where a business meeting was hold in the private rooms of the first vice president's olllce. The object and transactions - actions of that meeting will probably remain a secret , to the public at least. It Is certain that plans and specifications of some , kind were being discussed as tbo table around which the gentlemen were working when a Hr.i : representative called to see Mr. Adams , was covered with oiled paper drawings of plans and specllicatiuns. It might have been architects work fur the erection of a new union depot or the opening of sumo kindred chestnut burr. Shortly after the arrival of the reporter the door was closed and Mr. Adams was "busy" to tlio world. After some delay the official was seen , but for n brief interview in which he acknowledged , In advance of any request for news , that ho Was very busy and hud nothing at all now for the public. "Have you any plans in view for a union depot ! " queried the reporter. "No , none at all that I am aware of. Of course you know that that would not como before mo at any rate , but would bo attended to by your officials here. I have my own work to attend to and nm not able to talk on the local Improvements of the roail. " "You would hear of It , " continued the re porter , "if the Union Pacific were going to allow tlio eastern roads to cross your bridge Into Nebraska , " "I have not heard any talk recently of them making any arrangements to cross the bridge. Hut I can't tell you anything new in regard to the operating of the road or our workings with other lines. " The subject of the contract work for the road or tlio letting out to contractors of the building of the locomotives for the road was next mentioned at which thohigh official professed the same ignorance of anything in the way of a change from the way in which things are being conducted at present. Ho did not know whether Mr. Potter's plan of enlarg ing the shops and having the engines for the road built in Omaha would bo carried out or not. not.Tho question as to whether any now branch lines would bo built in Nebraska during the coming year or any lines of Importance throughout the west was asked , nnd the as surance given that there would not bo a gre.it deal of new road built. "Of course wo may lay some track and do a small amount of building qf lines , " said Mr. Adams , "but there will bo nothing done in that direction worthy of mention. " "Will .you bo in the city any length of time ! " asked the reporter. "Until to-morrow noon. Wo go on west. A number of short stops will be made along the line between hero antl Portland. That is our objective point and our main stop will bo made there. " Mr. Adams is looking very well and is en Joying his trip very much. Appetite and health restored by Tar- rant'a Seltzer Aperient.
