THE COUNTY SU10.
Tu Pull Down n "Wall In the County
Hospital.
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

'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.

llcv. ChnrlcH W. Hnvltluo's Sunday
Morning DlncotirHc.
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. _

NO. TWO'S AHIUVAU
The Ulcn of the "Jleld-Up" Train and
Their Stories.
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. _

Two men were having a llttlo game c

late lust night. They were fairly we !

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

1'nclilu On lllH Animal Trip.
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.

SCU1BES ON A JAUNT.
An Enjoyable Sunday Trip Over the
Kelt Ijine to Portal.
