Harvest Ticket * .
Wednesday morning the flrst harvest oxcur
slon over the 13. & M. pawed through
Omaha. Whether or not it will bo the Inst
depends chiefly upon the action of the roads
In the Western and Trims-Missouri Pas
senger associations. Ticket scalpers In
Chicago and other eastern points In the
jurisdiction of the former association
hnvo been obtaining control of the harvest
excursion tickets and It is feared that a gen
eral demoralization of rates may result.
They are bclnt ; used to cut ratoi to Denver
nnd also to Missouri river nolnts , To add to
the Rcnornl difficulty one Chicago-Omaha
line demanded that the harvest excursion
rates must apply to Missouri river points ,
thus giving the ticket brokers nn oppor-
tunlty that they otherwise would not have
hud. A meeting Is being held in Chicago
to-day to dovlso a plan whereby the tickets
uitn bo kept out of the brokers' hands.

ME AND JOE.
Commissioner Turner Tells All About
tils Little Trip to New Vork.
"Yesslr ; you bctchorllfo I had a blamed
nice time only fur thet woman. Tell you ,
I've got all the crazyin' I want in mine. Ef
the board wants to send any more crazy people
ple down east they'll have to send somebody
else besides me along- "
It was Commissioner Turner , who reported
at headquarters Wednesday aftetnoon for the
first time since his return homo on Sunday
morn Ing last.
"Now that woman Glldersleevo wuz a holy
terror. She nt and cussed 'round afora
everybody In the car. Fust I'd have to sit
by her an' she'd rake Joe Miller. Gad , how
she'd scorch hlml Then I skin out an'Joo
he'd sot down next her ; and then she'd cuss
mo. O , but she's a smart 'un. she is. "
"Where did you leave her ! " was asked.
"O , we left 'or ' in 'Lizaboth , Now Jersey , "
and the old man tried to change the subject
by , tolling how ho dodged the boys and
skipped homo on the lirst train Sunday
morning.
"Elizabeth ! Had she relatives there ! "
"Yes , 'or. I gave 'or f3 to git homo with. "
"What I to go home alouol"
"Oyes ; she wuz smart enough to git homo
from there. Her folks only lived 'Dout
twenty miles away. "
"Had a pretty nice time after you loft her'
did you I"
"Yes , purty fair sort of time. Joe told mo
ho saw her after'ards ' in Now York. She
was dead sot on going to Now York , but I
Just told 'cr she could'nt do it an1 she give it
up. "
"But what about your time in Now York ! "
"Well , 'oz I said , I Just showed Joe 'round
a little , took him to a few places like , aud
But then 'twant nothln' much for mo to see ,
because I'd ECO it all afore. "
"Didn't go down to Allon'n or the bowery '
did you ! "
"O , I don' know ez wo did. I wuz Just
ahowia' Joe 'round a little llko , you know.
'Course wo tripped through them streetsbut ,
ViO didn't go Into any of the places , Joe
didn't care to , and there wuzn't much now
fur mo to see. I tuck him up onto the over
head trains , an' wo went out to Central
park , and drove 'round In a carriage. Yes ,
we had a fairish sort of time all through. "
"Folks hero said you had gone oft on a
pleasure trip , " put in Anderson , who stopped
in about that time.
"Pleasure be 1 That 'ero woman was
a heap of pleasure , wuzn't she ! "
"What became of Joo's man ! "
"Ho put him off at some relations In Now
York. Funny 'bout that feller ; but ho
wouldn't eat a blto on the trip. I bought
grub for him a couple times , but ho wouldn't
touch It. " Then I stopped off at Hork'raor
two days , where my wife's relations lives. "
After that I went back to Now York for ono
day , loavln' there at U o'clock for homo. I
ruther enjoyed glttm * Inter the city ngtn ,
but I didn't enjoy as much us you'd ' thluK
fer , 'cause ' there wa'nt much , or nuthm' , In

Thou the genial old Now Yorker turned

with nnd true only of Hood's Sarsupar-

COMMANDS IV"DAVI9 FI113L
Ho Still Maintains That the G. A. H.
la Entitled to a Ono Cent Itate.
A telegram from Milwaukee contained the
statement of two Nebraska department ofll-
cors that their commander , J. B. Djtvls , who
is now In Chicago recovering from a long
illness , was not disposed to bo very strong
In discouraging attendance nt the encamp
ment , and that ho had directed that his or
der bo ns mild as possible. A Chicago re
porter called nt No. 21 Lincoln nvonuo ,
where Commander Davis is slopping , and
naked him If It was n filet that ho was dis
posed to compromise with the railroads.
"No , " said ho , "I want it understood
that I stand by this agreement of the de
partment commanders , nnd I want to
Bay , ns the commander of the Department of
Nebraska , that I have no controversy with
thi ) people of Milwaukee , but If they had had
mou with any sand they would have been
plvon the 1-cont rate by the railroads. Klght
hero in this room ono of the high ofllcluls ot
( i Milwaukee road said the other day that It
was their object to brealc the oreccdont of
the 1-cent rate , so that when Mr. Cm-pooler
gets up In Milwaukee and says ho cannot do
anything toward rescinding the action of the
roads ho says that which Is no' true , for thu

unmake it. Adjutant General Gateholl unrt

The Value llclng Koualit for hy the
Omaha Rindting Works.
The Omaha and Grant Smelting company
has commenced suit in the district court at
Wyandotte , Kansas , acainst Chester Bullock
and others to recover the value of 803,743
pounds of silver and lead ore sold to them in
1SS3 , but claimed by a mining company in
which James G. Blnlno was a stockholder
and given by the courts of Colorado to them.
This man Bullock is u capitalist of Kansas
City , Kansas , and associated with him in
the deal were Stanley P. Wik'ht , A. W.
Ituckcr , C. F. Uuckor , John McComb ,
Nels Larson nnd Thomas Quran.
In August , 1SS3 , the plaintiffs' petition says ,
the defendants , then operating a mine in
Colorado , sold to the plaintiffs UU5,7 , > iO pounds
of load ana silver ore for the sum of $14,207.-
07. The mlnlnc company warranted its title
to the ores , which they claimed bad been
taken from the Big Chief mine , and received
payment therefor. The smelting company
went to work on the ores which "panned
out" very well , but after a short thno a com
pany hcudcd by James G. Ululno appeared
upon the sceue and claimed that ttio ores
came from their own mine , the Maid of Erin.
The smelting company disputed the Blalno
company's title to tbo ores , and later in 18SO ,
the Blumo company instituted pro
ceedings in the district court of Anip-
ahoo county , Colorado , to recover the
precious metal. In December , 1877 , however ,
a change of venue was taken to the district
court of Lake county und thereat the conclu
sion of the trial In April , 1888 , n Judgment
was obtained for the full value of the ores.
The smelting company took an appeal to the
supreme court of Colorado and in duo thno
secured a reversal of Judgment. 1 ho case
again came up in the lower court , but this
time in Summit county , where in June , 1839 ,
a Judgment was obtained by the Blaine com
pany. Tnis time , however , the Judgment
against the smelting company was 75 per
cent heavier than thatflrstobtamcd , amount
ing to $24,109.40 , including all the costs of the
litigation und 10 per cent interest on the
value of the ores from the time of the orig
inal sale. This judgment has at last been
satisfied by tbo smelting company and now
suit has been instituted to recover from the
parties named above the money paid out in
1883 for the ores , together with interest aud
costs in the long chain of suits.
The celebrated demurrage suit instituted
by the B. & M. railroad against Barber & ,
Co. , of this city , was dismissed from the dis
trict court at the plaintiff's cost by stipula
tion.
tion.Ono
Ono of the petitions was ( lied by the Ne
braska and Iowa Insurance company , and
was an action to recover judgment on two
promissory notes given by James Stearns to
the John Dicrlca manufacturing company ,
and by the second parties transferred to tbo
plaintiff. The amount involved Is $500 , and
the defendants are Stevens and the corpora
tions named.

On Monday next the employes of the gov
ernment commence the work of repairing
the eastern banks of the Missouri river , and
thereby stopping the constant erosion which
has been going en for a number of years.
The Improvements extend for three miles
along the river front nud will commence at B
point about two miles ubovo the wagon
bridge , and extend to a point five miles
further north. The work will bo commenced
at the latter point nnd progress south
ward. The banks along that strip
are almost uniformly perpendicular mid
the first work done will bo to slope them
bacic from the river. This done , piles will
bo driven along the water's oduo to which
will be fastened the willow mats , The lat
ter consist of strong willow brush woven to
gether something after the manner of a car
pet. They are about a foot thiclr. These
extend from their fastenings at the water's
edge into the river about sixty feet und on
them is placed a layer of stones about a foot
thick. They weight of the stones holds the
mat against the bottom of the river and the
two form n perpetual provcntativo against
erosion during low water. From the water's
edge up the sloping bank ia covered n luvor
of rook as a burner to high water erosion
and the work is then complete. The pro
posed improvement will furnish employment
to over a hundred men until thu close of the
season.
