tlcsct up a lugubrious howl that nearly drove

Tlio great Cochran sale of lots in the west

Thirty-eight lots were disposed of , nt prices
ranging from $ . ' ! 00 to $550 per lot. The sale
will bo continued from day to day until nil
nro sold. Colonel Cochran hired a band for
L the occasion , and considerable Interest was

largo. Omaha was very well represented
among the buyers.
Captain O'Brien did a quick picco of work
yesterday. Tues-day afternoon a stranger
hired a livery rig at the stable of ,1. L. Giles ,
on North Main. As he did not return at the

htolen the team , and the case was put in the
hands of Anderson ! ' of the
* t Q'Brien , mer
chants' police. The team was found in Ste
venson's stable in Omaha , It was somowh.it

nfraid to face the liveryman and skipped out ,
as ho has not been seen since.
The grand jury yesterday returned three
indictments. Ono of them was against Tnl-

rectory of this city. Talbot passed a forged
check for $10 on his employes , at the store of
Sargent & Evans about three months ago ,
nnd has been contlned in the county lull since
that time. It is believed from the inaccuracy
of the directory that checks were not the
only forgeries committed by Talbot and sev
eral of the other canvassers. The other par
ties indicted are not yet arrested , but their
cases are well known and have already at
tracted considerable newspaper comment.

The Coii iesHloiinl Convention.
The republican congressional convention ,
which assembled yesterday at the county
couit house , was , to draw It mildly , ns line
n representative body as over assembled
Within those walls. The delegates , gathorc-i
from the various parts of the Ninth fault-let ,
wcro largely from the profcis'.ids , ntul thu
deliberations of the convention wcro marked
by rare ability.
The Ogd/jn house was m ido the headQuarters -
Quarters bf the delegates , us the major ! ty of
them quartered there during their stay in
the city. During the late hours of the pre
vious evening and the early IIOUIM of yester
day morning the corridors were thronged
With delegates and the friends of thu lisp Ir
an Is for congressional honors. A gioat
deal of work was bone , but was
done so quietly that there was not n ripple
upon the surface of things. There was the
usual "assembling" of the various delega
tions ; the usual "button-holing" of dele
gates , but BO little form was assumed that up
to the hour of assembling nothing could be
ascertained as to the probable result. The
delegations themselves wcro nil at sea. The
outside work was characterized by the ut
most pleasantness , nnd while the work was
earnest and the feeling In some quarters in
tense , nothing of this appeared upon the sur
face.
In the crowd wcro many familiar fares.
Of course the possible candidates wcro there
with the exception of Lymnn , Lafo
Young , of the Atlantic Telegraph ;
Silas Wilson , of Cass county ; S. t ) .
Nichols , of Audubon , and many others. A.
II. Lawshe , the "liarz Saw" of Ucd Oak , w.is
there , as his grim humor , peculiar argumenta
tion and the hearty laughs which followed
his quaint speeches testilled.
Thu convention assembled atll0 : ! , and
was called to order by Colonel \V. F. Sapp ,
chairman of the congressional central com
mittee. Major C. W. Snyder , of Mont
gomery county , was mndo temporary chair
man , and II. W. Byera , of Shelby county.
was made temporary secretary. On a roll
of counties the committee on credentials , or
ganization mid resolutions wcro named as
Credentials Henry Cook , of Adair
county ; J. A. OborhoUzor , of Audubon ;
U. W. Erstino , of Cass ; C. W.
Hill , of Guthrie : J. A. Moore , of
Harrison ; M. H. Byers , of Mills ;
John Patton , of Montgomery ; C. H. Converse -

vention then adjourned until 1UO : p. m.
On reassembling tlio committee on creden
tials reported the counties entitled to repio-
entation by delegate as follows : Adair 'J ' ;
Vudubou 0 ; Cass 10 ; Guthrie 10 ; Harrison
1 ; Mills S ; Montgomery 10 ; Pottawattamio
7 ; Shelby 8 ; also that tlio delegations
voro all full witli ono or two exceptions , and
wommended that in those cases where
hero were absentees the delegates present
: ast the full vote of the delegation. This
, vas adopted.
Tlio committee on permanent organization
reported that the temporary bo made perma
nent , which was adopted. D. II. Willoy w.is
uiado assistant secretary and Ed Mott desig
nated to assist in registering the ballots.
On motion n hearing of the committee on
resolutions was temporarily dispensed with.
Nominating speeches were also lot go by the
board , and the convention proceeded to take
an informal ballot for choice for congress
man. Tills resulted us follows : Major
Joseph Lyman , 27 ; Silas Wilson , 13 ; S. D.
Nichols , 10 ; C. M. Harl , 21 ; John "A. Story ,
13.
13.Tho first formal ballot resulted : Lyman
81 , Nichols 18 , Hnrl 20 , Wilson 13.
'Subsequent ballots , although they changed
.ho figures , did not bring the nomination any
nearer to anybody. During the progress of
the vote to the flfty-socond ballot , other
names were brought out for the purpose of
defeating the nomination ot some ono who
was in danger of being struck by lightning.
J. W. Stockort was named by Mills county
'n the fourth ballot , Colonel Sapp in thu
lfth , J. J. Stoadman in the fifteenth , Judge
J. U. Hood in the forty-flrst , Lafo Young In
the sixty-first and several others. In the
fortieth ballot Judge Ilced received forty
votes and it looked as though ho would got
thcro. But live more votes wore needed and
his friends did hard work to accomplish that
result ; but it was not so to bo. In the
sixty-third ballot Steadman pulled
up to thirty-seven , and his friends wcro
hopeful ho might get the plum. At that
point ho arose and in a manly speech stated
that he was thcro us a member of the delega
tion of this county to work for the success of
Mr. Harl , and ho could not , under thcso
circumstances , allow his name to stay before
the convention ns a possible candidate. An
adjournment of fifteen minutes was taken at
8 o'clock , but this aid not mnko matters any
better. At 4:20 : o'clock another call for ad
journment was defeated. The convention
had evidently struck a deadlock , and realiz
ing this fact , and that further balloting was
useless at that time , an adjournment was
voted at5 : 0.
The convention assembled at 7:80 : o'clock
and resumed voting ut the sixty-fifth ballot.
It was expected that lobbying during the re
cess would have gotten matters into somu
more definite shape , but it was not GO. The
ballots until the eighty-ninth was reached
showed little variation from those preceding.
Ben Clavton was complimented with 0 votes
in tlio oighty-fouith , nnd Judge Deemcr'a
nainu was brought nut in the eighty-ninth.
In this ho received fl votes and the followliifi
ono 17. The tide was setting in strongly in
that , direction , when' a member of the Mont
gomoy county delegation , Mr. Miller ,
stated that under no consideration
would Judge Deemcr accept the
nomination if it was offered him. Thai
stopped the Deomcr boom , nnd the votinp
proceeded ns before. At the nincty-lirsl
ballot Judge Heed's name had droppcO
almost out of the race. On the ninety-sec
end four votes wcro cast for him. Durlup
the polling of the next two ballots members
ol the Pottawnttamio delegation were al
work and with good effect , for Heed's vet (
climbed up to H3 in the ninety-third balloi
and to 47 in the nlucty-fQurth. The broal
occurred when Montgomery county cast hoi
vote. She cave u healthy change in Hoed'i
direction , Audubon followed suit , Mills gnvt
him her eight votes , Shelby caino In with i
change of heart and clinched the business b :
a complete turn over. This gave Judge J
H. Heed the nomination. Cheer upon chcci
followed , nnd the wildest enthus
iasm prevailed. Colonel Hubbard rcai
n telegram from Judge Heed to the effcc
that if certain conditions occurred in the de
liberations of the convention ( the ones cltei
above ) , ho would accept the nomination if ii
was tendered him.
During the polling of thu sixty-fifth ballot
Walter 1. Smith , on behalf of tlio supporter
of C. M. Harl , withdrew that gentlcman'i
namo. This was done for the purpose o
harmony in the convention , and at Mr. Harl'i
request , said Mr. Smith. Adair county gavi
nine votes for her favorite , John A. Story
all tno way through , ami Guthr'o ' did thi
same by Nichols. If fidelity to tncir interests
osts could have won , either of the gcnt'cinei
named would have been nominated.
The secretary was instructed to notlfj
Judge Heed of his nomination.
The congressional central committee wn
then selected as follows : Adal :
county , M. A. Hanoy ; Audubon
Charles Van Gorder : Cass , D. H. Scott
Guthrle , W. P. Moulton : Harrison , J. W
Stockert ; Millo , H. W. Byers ; Montgomery
W. H. Parker ; Pottnwattamlo , T. J. Evans
Shelby. C. W. Hlnesmlth. The eonventloi
then adjourned to meet at the polls next No
vcuiber.

prior thereto. On Janunry 2U , ibMl. thu de

Pushing the I'uvi nt ; .
The paving of First avenue was completed
last evening. This beautiful thoroughfare
through ono of the ploasantest portions of
the city now offers greater inducements to
lartics out lor pleasure driving than almost
ny other p.u-t of the city. Adorned by elegant
gant residences on either side , and Bayliss
uric near the eastern end , thcro is nothing
acking to make it as nearly perfect as it is
) ossiblo , for a strcat so no.ir the center of
ho city to bo. As soon as the season's p iv-
, ng is completed , this street will form a part
of a continuous block paved drive around the
city. South Eighth street is nlrcady paved
: o connect it with Broadway , and with the
proposed paving of North Eighth , Bluff and
Pierce streets , the long strip of paving on
Mynster street nnd Washington nvouuo will
bo readily accessible , and there will bo no
connections wanting. The grading of those
streets above named has already been done ,
and the plank for the foundation has been
taken to the ground. The paving force has
been transferred to Sixth and Seventh
streets , between First avenue and Broadway ,
and thcso connections will bo completed by
'ho end of the present week. The paving of
eighth street south to Eighth avcnuo will
hen bu finished. The grading of Willow av
enue and Sixth street is being pushed as rap
idly as possible in order that the contractor
may got to work ou the brlek paving that is
to bo laid on those streets. Contractor Wick-
ham nlso has about 8,000 feet of cypress pav
ing to put down in that vicinity. The next
street for work is Fifth avenue , which when
paved , will rank next to Broadway as a
straight continuous drive.

The Miscreant Captured.
Chief Lucas captured the fellow yesterday
morning , who inveigled two little twelve'
year-old school girls into his room on Nortl :
Main street Tuesday morning. Ho was found
in bed and quickly transferred to the police
station , whore ho was identified by the girls
and the teacher nt the Lindsay school build
ing. Ho was taken to the county jail for safe
keeping , and his case given to the grand
jury , which Immediately investigated it.
The fellow's name is Thomas Barrett , and
ho Is a frc.iuenler of tlio Broadway game
ling houses. The girls are daughters of em
nontly respectable parents , nnd their names
are wlthcld as the families do not desire any
notoriety in the matter. The story told by
ono of the girls Is to the effect that she was
going homo with some mcdiciiio for her sis
ler when the villain met her on the Mali
street bridge , and asked where she had
been. Ho was a btrangjr , but she said she
had been to cct some medicine for her sister ,
when ho said that her sit > tcr was at his room
and wanted to see her , and
fcho Innocently went with him. She
asked his name , nnd ho said
"Why , you know who I am , Iain Tom. '
They enteied tlio room and ho locked the
door. Her sister , of course , was nowhere to
bo seen , nnd ho said tliat she must have gene
out , but would bo back soon. Tlio girl bo
cumo alarmed and began to run about th
room nnd cry , whereupon ho unlocked th
door and allowed her to go out. Ho followed
the other girl Into the water closet in the
rear of the school building. The chnrgi
placed against him is assault with intent t <
commit rape. Ho docs not deny tils guilt ,
but savs ho ir list have been drunk nt the
time , although others who saw him thu
morning say this is not so. Ho is nboul
twenty-four years of ago and has a decidedly
unsavory reputation. Considerable feeling
is expressed against him nnd it Is the genera'
impression that It will go hard with him.
