Wiseman wandered into Klgut- ler's hall on Tenth and Farnam streets. A Hebrew club was in session. Mr. Wif-cman wanted to mop the coiling with the chairman nnd the executive committee. They called the police. ' When Sergeant'Mostyn arrived there the babel of dialects and confusion of btoricbregarding the alTair incapacitated him. However , Mr.Wixeman was escort ed to the station , and "btill has it in" ' ( or the club. John Peal is the original "hungry man. " Saturday night ho was arrested at Fort Omaha for "cracking safes. " The bafos , however , wore kitchen safes , intended more for keeping out Hies than burglars. John was arrested four months ago charged with dining from lion barrels. Ho is a discharged homier , and since then has Hindu a rep utation "crook. " Ho is as a now a silly , hungry iiflbccile , with an abnormal ap petite. I' . Phclps , a carpenter , was unfortu nate enough to visit the Casino garden last night. While standing under the entrance a burly bouncer by the name of Wollor approached him and ordered him down front to "buy do boor. " Phelps did not cnro to go , and got into nn altercation with the bouncer. The bouncer then tried to make Phclps un derstand the business policy of the house , by whacking him over the head hovcral times with his cane. Mr. Wol- ler now languishes in the city bastllo. Ho was hugging his fiddle. It was liis only friend , ho taid , except the largo load of South Tenth street whisky which he was also taking care of. His name is Thomas McQuagc. After fid dling until ho got so full that ho was past handling the bow , ho laid down on the sidewalk Saturday night and wooed the drowsy god.

William Hall was seriously Injured yester day morning by ttio dummy train between the transfer and the bridge. Ho was walking on the track and was struck by a passing train. Ono arm and ono leg were broken nnd his head cut , but not seriously. Ho was brought to Omaha and taken to St. Joseph's hospital. Hall is an unmarried man of about twenty-live. Ho was employed In cleaning cars for the Union Pacific. Ilnhhrd His Kellow Walters. A waiter at the "Casino" made n haul on Saturday night , nnd n lot of the waiters nnd bat tenders belonging to that rcsoit are going Imtless and co.itlcss In consequence. At 10 o'clock ono of the waiters "cashed In" and quit. After doing so ho visited the coat room nnd took everything in sight. Ueforo com- nlnjnt was lodged with the police ho had boarded a freight and was merrily wending his way from Omaha , his wardrobe rein forced with about n dozen coats without Vests and us many hats of various stages of Iccrcpltude. A Curb Stone Crook. On Friday a smooth party approached u curb-stono Jeweloron Thirteenth nnd Farnam streets. Ho entered into n conversation with the jeweler and told him that ho was BOOH going to start in the business himself. When the curb-stono man closed up the utrunpor helped him take his stock to n neighboring ealoon for deposit over night. Mr. A. Connor was the ptospcctivo merchant in "solid gold" rings. In the morning ho appeared nt the saloon , just as Urn sleepy porter opened the doors , and claimed the other fellow's satchels. The pot ter recog nized him as ono of the men who had brought them In the night before , and delivered them. Mr. Connor then went to South Omaha and started n business of his own. The heavy hand of n South Omaha policeman interrupted him , and he now languishes at the city hall. Hilton by a Ferocious Doc * I The flve-j ear-old daughter of John Em blem , who resides on Virginia avenue near Lcavcnwoith street , was shockingly bitten l ' < by a vicious dog yesterday morning. The dog is n shepherd belonging to Henry Nelson , n neighbor. The child was bitten on the right temple , twice under the loft eye , nnd ou the scalp above the forehead. Lr. Uoevcs attended the case , i-auteriilnj ? unit sewing up the wounds. The doctor did not consider the dog rabid , nnd although the mother of the child clamored to have it shot , ho advised that it bo allowed to live. His reason for this action was that the dog would show symptoms of being labld within thirty days if ho was affected with that malady , and the parents would have the satisfaction uf watch ing both the case aud the dog1. The child , in her play , attempted to pick up a bo no near the dog's Uennol , when the brutu lumped upon her and bit her before she could bo rescued.

In a slightly in jured tone of voice , "there were lots ol things you lot mo do before the baby cumo that you don't lot mo do now. " "Do you think so , Bobby ? " "Yoa , " assorted Bobby. "Still , " ho wont on with more philosophy , " 1 can't expect you to be so good a mother with two'children as you \vero when you only had one. " L O/WV'S DISAl't'KAUANOIS. Indications Point to Deliberate Do ne t-t Ion of lilH Fainllj. It was rciwrlcd last , week Hint C. C. Onw , a proof reader on the World , had mysteri ously disappeared. It transpires , however , thiil ho has deserted his family. Ho left his home , a pretty cottngo on Dupont street , be tween Twenty-eight and Twenty-ninth streets , last Tuesday morning to go to work , since which tlmo his family 1ms not seen him. Ills family consists of u wlfu and thrco small children , the oldest bcliif , ' but Jlvu years old. Mrs. Oaw was seen and could throw no light upon his whereabouts. For the past two years thulr relations have not been as they should , Their domestic trouble ) C'tin when Oaw paid attention ton widow , ivho was nt the time rcildlnir In his house. She loft soon after , nnd although ( ! aw and ils wife have never had any words about the .natter their relations have been somewhat .strained. Only last week Mrs. Oaw burled a week old baby Mrs. ( Jaw states she heard tnai her husband drew qulto a sum of money f.tom McCaRiio's bank ' .ust . Tuesday evenlnp , also all the my that was duo him at the World ofllco. lo and u compositor in.thoWorld by thenamo Forrester went to'supper at the Homo restaurant. Ga\v stated to his friend that ho thought ho would stay down town and inako u nlirht of it , but afterwards dimmed bis mind and got on a car to go to the Union Pa cific depot to catch the 7 o'clock ' dummy for Shecley. Sinco.then ho has not been soon. Mrs. Qaw Is In delicate health , and ; s left entirely destitute. Her parents tvo at Grant City , Mo. , nnd are noor people. She will piobably bo com- lulled to go to them for suppot t. Oawiis .ho Omaha agent for the Inland Printer , a iagazine devoted to the printing trade. His accounts are said to bo perfectly straight with this concern. His youngest child , a girl about two years old , made friends with .he reporter and asked repeatedly for papa. " The mother explained that Oaw was very fond of his children and especially of the girl baby. Oaw Is a good looking young fellow of twenty-eight years of ace. and was very popular ivith his associates , who deplore ils action. It was reported that he had been foully dealt with after leaving the train at Slieely. The watchman at Hheely station , ulso the watchman at the Howcll Lumber . otnpany. said that they had not noticed 3aw alight from the tiain on last Tuesday evening. They had misled him , but tnouirht probably ho was coining out on the streetcar. The watchman of the Howcll Lumber com- i.inv'fl yard stated that It would bo lini/ossl- ilo for any foul play to bo committed there iVithout being piomptly discoveio.1. There s no doubt but Gaw 1ms left town. Whether he has taken the widow with him could not bo ascertained. How to IM linage n Knllrond. The only \\ny to bocuro the successful .ntimigcmcnt . of si railroad is to phico it under the control of tiblo olllcers , who must , ho required to give it their time nnd attention , to employ intelligent sub ordinates , who must bo sulllciontly com pensated and thoroughly disciplined. By this force every detail of construc tion , maintenance and operation must bo closely watched. In the observance of these simple principles lies the secret of the great success and world-wide fame of the Pennsylvania lines. Their ollicors are not speculators or stock job bers , but find in the broad field oT their vocation , variety and full occupation for brains that rest only at nature's command. Their employes have not the mean appearance of hirelings , but the bearing and dignity of men. The locomotives and coaches of the Pennsyl vania system are built in its own shops , by its own employes , and after its own standard speci fications , which are continually being _ improved. The unwrough't material is subjected to the strongest tests , and the llnishod equipment is thoroughly inspected at short intervals. The methods of operation of the Penn sylvania lines include every safeguard known to railroad science. The short and direct routes of the Pennsylvania ftoni. its army of employes and its extensive equipment have made possible the establishment of an organization of through train service to the east that offers a greater variety of choice and better accommodations than have been known heretofore. Five trains leave Chicago every day via the Pennsylvania lines , for Pittsburgh , Baltimore. Washington , Philadelphia and Now York. The Pennsylvania spe cial at 10 a. in. ; the Fast line at 3:15 : p. m. ; the Pennsylvania limited iU 6 p. in. ; the Eastern express at 8:30 : p. in. ; the Atlantic express at 11:550 : p. m. These are each excellent trains. For tickets and Pullman accommodations apply to C.V. . Adams , asst. gen. pass , agent , Co Clark street , Chicago. Through tickets via the Pennsylvania lines can also bo procured from any ticket agent throughout the west or northwest , and it should bo remem bered that the Pennsylvania lines are also short and direct from Chicago to Indianapolis , Cincinnati , Louisville and the south. Itullroacl Loss. Detroit Free Press : "I was attorney for the railroad twenty 3 ears ago , ' said a Detroit lawyer , "and one day went out to settle a loss with a woman. She and her husband had been struck at a crossing , and while she was badly hurt , ho was killed outright and horses and buggy smashed lo pieces. They had the dead wood on us for 15,000 , as the engineer did not signal the cross ing. I wont out to make an offer of about $12,000. The widow was not able to sit up , and I stopped at a store in the village and bought bomo oranges and lemons and took them up. When wo finally got around to the matter of dam ages , she said : "Yes , it was a sad thing , nnd the rail road was to blame , but I don't want to bo mean about it. I suppose the presi dent and all of 'em are worried most to death , and I suppose I could stop all the cars from running , but I want to bo just. Your bringing up that fruit proves how kind-hearted you all are , and if you think you could altord to give mo $1.000 I'll sign off. " . "I made her accept $0,000 , and took her the money myself. When she re ceived it she asked : "Won't the road bo crlnnledV" "Oh , no. " "Cora run just the samoV" "Yes. " "And none of your folks are mad at mo ? " "No. " "Well , then , I'll take it , but if the road bhould got hard up and want tc borrow , it'll lind mo ready to lo'nd. " tio\vKnto , to Suit Lnkn nnd Itcturn.

According to the Iron Ago the longest straight reach of railway in the worlt is on the now Argentine Pacific rail way , from Buenos Ayres to the foot o the Andes. For a distance of 211 miles the line Is laid without u curve. Tlu level nature of the country will bo evident dent from the fact that there is noithoi a cutting or an embankment which if deeper or higher than ono yard. The entire absence of wood on the plait across which the western end of the roai passes has led to the extensive use o metallic sleepers. Operations have al ready begun on the mountain sectior of the road , which is to cross the Anne : and to open up communication with tin Chilian Hue. IS BASE BALL BARBAROUS ? Joel llcntoii Think * ( In ; National Game Is DiuiKcroiio. American Magazine : The base ball of lo-dnyhas , to bo sure , its primitive germ in the delightful boys' game wo used to know , but its departure from that in character is both marvelous and malign. Its main object COOIUM to bo to obliterate all the fun which the game naturally supplier , with ono other the develop ment of a "pitcher. " Ilo is called a "pitcher" principally because he won't or can't pitch. That in. ho has learned a cortortion of body and swing of arm that defeats all uxpoctcncy of the batter and extinguishes the true fun in the game. On him more than any one else depends the success of a side ; but what it succeeds to it would bo dilllcult to toll. When it its " ' ' . gets "innings' they are more or less useless , because another "pitcher" ' with tricks peculiar to Him self , excites again the admiration of the crowd of njiectators by making hits cither scarce , accidental , or impossible. In the old game of free and frequent hitting n sldo was no more persistently "in" than one is now. It wont out as often , but it could tell what it gained by an "inning. " It secured the sport for which ball playing was llrst invented , and for which it has been played cer tainly 2,000 years , viz : the joy of hitting the ball. When it wont out the other side succeeded to its rapture and ex perience. The modern game , on the contrary , is something like what llshing might b"ecomo if some one would invent a "regulation bait" which no lish would ever bite , or like the hunting which the proprietor of a grove recommended and was called to account for recom mending when ho replied that. "There was no game tii the grove. I know , but I thought that fact would make all the more hunting. " The "catcher" in modern b.iso ball is another development that must not bo passed by. In the circuses there is often a trained athlete , who stands in front of a cannon and catches the ball in his hand when it is tired out , at no very great distance from the gun. The charge of powder which sends it , however - over , is measured , and serious accidents resulting from the undertaking , ! think , are not numerous. But the catcher of the regulation baseball implement , or globe , or toy call it which you will takes liis life in his hands , lie has to catch a ball which might as well bo a cannon ball , with little power to tell where it will find him or he itand with a cortnintj that if it hits him serious or fatal injury is most likely to ensue. To make it less possible that his nose or jaw shall bo broken , or to prevent his teeth from being Knocked entirely out , ho now wears a wire cage over his face , not wholly dissimilar to an ox's miuilc or burglar's mnsk.C H ) This device , however , does not always prevent a catastrophe. Injury and vir tual mayhem to the hands the catcher is alwajsi sure to get if ho remains in the business long. Calloused joints and broken lingers nra certain to come. Injuries which no sane person not a baseball player would accept for a princely fortune given in advance are made light of by the true catcher , and are often referred to by the craft as if they were the scars won in an epoch- deciding battle. The "regulation" ball is really an instrument of barbarism. It has hurt others than the catcherand occasionally kills an innocent person , who happens to stand in the line of its path , with easy celerity.

Death nnd Burial in China. Popular Science Monthly : When the Chinese wish to declare the extreme voxatiousncss of any piece of work , they bay , "It is more trouble than a funeral ; " the obsequies of a parent being reckoned the most nmdaoning affair in human e"x- perionco. Infants are buried summarily , with out colllns , and the young are interred with few rites ; but the funerals of the aged , of both ' sexes , are elaborate in proportion' to the number of the descendants - ants nnd to their wealth. When a childless married man dies , his widow may perform the duties of a son toward him , may remain in his house , and may adopt children to rear as his heirs and as worshippers of the family names , if his widow purposes marrying again , a young male relative may , with the con- pent of senior members of the clan , un dertake the services expected from a son , and may inherit the estate of the deceased. When ono is about to die , ho is re moved from his couch to a bench or to a mat on the floor , because of a belief that ho who dies in bed will cairy the bed stead as a burden into the other world. Ho is washed in a now pot , in warm water in which a bundle of incense- sticks is merged. After the washing , the pot and the water are thrown away together. Ilo is then arrayed in a full suit of new clothing , that ho may ap pear in hades at his best. lie breathes his last in the main room , before the largest door of the house , that the departing - parting soul may easily find its way out into the air. A sheet of spirit-money , brown paper having a patch of gilding on one surface , is laid over the upturned face , because it is said that , if the eyes are loft uncovered , the corpse may count the rowti of tiles in the roof , and that in such case the family could never build a more spacious domicile. You can find cool , well furnished rooms at the Globe hotel , best located house in Omaha. Shoi-ltliiit'H Grave. Sheridan's grave is only a few feet from Arlington mansion. In the dis tance can bo soon the capital city , the sky-piercing shaft of the Washington monument Hanked by the glistening dome of the capital and the slately squares of public buildingsami between rolls the broad expanse of the shim mering Potomac , Its bosom generally rufllod by the soft summer breeze. Upon the crown of the hill stands the historic Leo mansion , once the homo of Martha Curtis , whence George Wash ington bore her as his bride ; whence , also , Robert E. Leo , the great leader ol the confederate armies , found a wife in another daughter in the Curtis lino. Round about the grave , dotting the sloping hillsides , are lofty oaks am' chestnuts , with hero nnd there an evergreen - green freighting the air with balsamic breath. DIohold Safcw.

Washington Post : It is noteworthy that while the enumeration of Genera Sheridan's property includes $5,000 worth of bwords , etc. , the sword which the general carried all through the war on which the record of his victories wa : engraved , and which was the ceremon ial sword that lay upon the general's bier all through the obsequies , was pur chased by him nt the beginning of the war for S3 from another ofllcor , who hue o I bought it at an auction in Chicago 1 tbe same amount ol money.
