THE OMAHA DAILY BEE : TUESDAY , AUGUST 13 , 1889. 5 The "Way to Reach. Dundee Place : Go to the End o Farnani Street , then North to Dodge , which will Bring you to Our Southeast Corner. Has been a surprise to many of the pldest citizens here. Those who have seen Oinaha grow from a small town to the strong and magnificent city it now is did not think twelve months ago that the western part of the city would take shate ) and develop at suoh a marvelous rate. Wow everything points to the west , where the beautiful hills over look the thickly settled portions down town. The pure and healthy atmosphere is noticeable immediately Dundee Place is entered ; the air is free from disagreeable odors and smoke , which are objectionaDlein many parts ot Omaha. The ground is rolling from one end of Dundee Place to the other , thus aifording the proper undulation to produce the best drainage , in consequence water , after heavy rains , does not lay on the ground and become stagnant , as is known to be the case in many of the best localities in Omaha. If you.live in Dundee Place you will have good health. If you buy in Dundee Place you will make money. If you own property in Dundee Place your surroundings will be the best. If you want" house in Dundee Place , and have not the time to build , the contractors on the ground will show what they haye for sale.- If you want to build a nice house , and have not sufficient money to spare at present , we will make you a liberal G-o out and look at what has been done the past few weeks , or call at our office and we will show the property.

Thomas , u livery stable keeper of the Qjaltnr City , mid an uncle of Mrs. McFarlund , was first called , mid testiilod tliut the reputation of his niece for truth and voruelty was good , nnd went on to any that her general moral character was also good. Upon cross-examination the witness said that ho didn't know that Mrs. McFarland was unusually talitatlvo. She was a. bright nnd vivacious llttlo creature and a warm friend of those whom she liked. "You have a brother in the Philadelphia iax dopartmout , have you noil" "Yes. " "You don't know what ho might have said about Mrs. McFarlnudI" "No , but 1 should make considerable nl- ijwanco for anything he might have said. " "Do you know Mr. Plotsonl" "Yes. " "Very reputable gentleman , Is ho notl" "Yes. " "Do you know what ho might have said about Mrs. McFarlund I" "No. " Do you know Mr. Earlyl" Yes. " "Heputablo gentleman , isn't ' hel" "Yes. " "You don't know what ho might have said bout Mrs. MeFarland ! " "No. " "Do you know what Mrs. McFarland's conduct was in the city of Omaha lust Juno ! " "No , sir. " "She might have been guilty of the gross est misconduct for all you know , slrl" "She might , yes. " "You don't know what places she visited In the cityl" "No air. " A member of the court arose to ask the object of the Inquiry Into Mrs. McFarland's conduct and moral character , The counsel for the defense said that the witness In his direct testimony had volun teered Information upon this point , and had thereby opouod the way for these in quiries , The court , however , ruled that the exam ination must bo conllncd to her reputation lot truth and voracity , The counsel said be bad 110 further questions. lie-direct "In regard to these allusions made by the counsel for the accused , if there had been any misconduct on the part of Mrs. MoFarland , you would have Ituown it , wouldn't you ! " The accused objected to the question and the objection was sustained. "You may state what occurred at the In terview between you and Mrs. McMullen. " Counsel for defense again interposed an objection , which was overruled. The witness proceeded to answer the ques tion. "Mrs. MoMullen said that the colonel was batter pleased with Mrs. McFarland during her last visit than ever before , and that the only ditllculty they had was a little quarrel on the last morning of her visit. " The next witness called was Horace F. Weeks , a Philadelphia lawyer. Ho testified that lie had Known Mrs. McFarland for fifteen years , nnd that ho moved in the same Boclety in the city that she did , Her reputa tion for truth nnd veracity , he sold , was good and lie uuvcr hoard It questioned. Upon cross-examination the witness said ha had never discussed the matter of the lady's character. "Then tlio extent of your knowledge of this matter , " said the counsel , "is that you have never discussed it ? " " 1 have never discussed It , " "Did j'ou ever represent the McFarland family us an attorney ! " " 1 linvo been questioned by them on points of law , but never received any fees from them. " The witness acknowledged that ho had once visited Omaha to consult Mrs. McFar land regarding the sale of some real estate , but at that time ho represented the purchas ers and not , Mrs. McFarland. Howard Kountze , of Philadelphia , was next called. Ho hud known Mrs. McFar land for eight years , and know many people in the city whom she know. Ho testlllcd that her reputation for truth and veracity was very good. Upon cross-examination the witness said he didn't know what , others tnlgbt have said , but her reputation in this regard had never been discussed in his presence. Mrs. Hess , of Philadelphia , was very em phatic in her answers and declared with much vehemence that Mrs. McFarlnnd's ' reputation for truth nnd voracity was very good. She had never hoard it questioned. After luncheon Captain Dempsey was re called , nnd lus attention was directed to the morning of the 1'Jtti and the conversation relative to the dogcart. "At that time , " snld the witness , "I was sitting upon Colonel Fletcher's doorstep and I distinctly heard him say , 'You d n liar nnd thief , you have been talcing things out of the house that don't belong to you , ' and I have every reason to believe thut the accused was addressing Ills remarks to Mrs Fletcher. " Upon his cross-examination the witness said that it was only his opinion that these remarks were addressed to Mrs. Fletcher : ho did uot know of his own knowledge that they were. When he went into the bouse Colonel Fletcher said ho addressed the re marks to Mrs. MoFarland , Lieutenant Wright was recalled and asked it Lieutenant Tousloy had not mndo con trary statements regarding his understand ing of Colonel Fletcher's words at the meet ing of olllciirs , to what ho had made on the stand. This was objected to , and the objec tion was sustained. "When j-ou called upon Colonel Fletcher with Dr. Henderson , did you hear the latter say , 'Time is too short , sign the paper or take the consequences. ' " "No , sir , I did not. " Lieutenant Kinzle was recalled , nnd testi ilod that on the morning of the 19th of Juno Colonel Fletcher's coachman came to lilui and said tnat the colonel was at the Mlllard in case ho was wantod. The witness said that no asked the man if he had overtaken Colonel Fletcher on hia way to town , and the coachman had answered yes. The court then adjourned until this morn ing. ing.Mrs. Mrs. Fletcher arrived in the city Sun day , but under the lawsho could not bo In troduced upon the stand to testify against her nusband.

The Collection Now Gathered In the High School. The Douglns County Teachers' Institute opened yesterday at the high school , with an attendance of seventy , which County Superintendent 13runer says is the largest ho has over known on the ilrst day of an in stitute. The instructors , Mrs. Koysor , Dr. Strone and Professor Brnner , were present and looked over an array of fair faces which nearly tilled the room. The masculine ped- ngoguo is but slenderly represented and the inf eronco is that the great majority of Doug las county schools nro gorgeous with picture cards and fancy work and during the sum mer season redolent of the fragrance of pra- rio flowers. ' 1 hcso young ladies are from almost every state In the union and , if the comparison be not invidious , in point of bcauti' and intelli gence rank far above any similar collection heretofore assembled in this city. There are stately Ucrnhardts in voluminous Galnsboros and flowing Spanish mantillas , and plump little Dolly Varacns in white muslin and pink sashes. They are black-haired , brown- haired , golden-haired and ilaxcn-halrod. There are vivacious ones and languishing ones , snappy , mild , round-eyed , lone-eyed and spectacled. There nro Kates nnd .lanes , Grctchcns , Marguerites , Lillics , Hoses , Floras and Mary Anns. In fact , they re present every conceivable tvpo of feminine st4UolliiesspUinipno , liusnbloiicss and lovh- ness , and ho would be fastidious indeed who could not find an Ideal us the long line flies out of the aoor at recess. All are settled down to a couple of weeks' good hard work with doubtless a sprinkling of enjoyment. The various instructors have had a great deal of experience in institute worn , and are endeavoring to mnko the present session ono of the most profitable and successful over held In the county. Mrs. Jenuio E. Koysor , who has charge of the literary branches , is an enthusiastic student of tlio literature of the language and a very smooth nnd engaging speaker.

Charles Parker , a sixteen-year-old boy , was arrested Saturday night for forgery and arraigned before Judge Hcrktii yesterday afternoon , A continuance was granted un til Wednesday at 3 p. in , The boy says ho induced to write the chocks by a young man named Walter , who is an habitue of the Diamond pool room. Ho wrote the checks , passed them on the various parties , and gave the man Walter one-half the profits. The boy went to Austin's shoo store on Thirteenth and Howard streets nnd bought a pair of shoes , tendering a check for $13 and receiving $10.25 change. The same game was played on W. R. Uonnolt & Co. , and the shoo store in Boyd's opera house building. The checks were signed "C. S. Pottec" nnd "E. F. McCartney. " They were on the Omaha , Commercial and Ne braska National banks. The boy did not seem to realize the gravity of his position. Ho asked the reporter if ho could give bonds and got a chance to work and repay the money lie had obtained. Ho stated that the report that ho had boon forced to got money dishonestly because bis father whipped him for not bringing homo more money , was not true. His eyes tilled with tears as ho said he had the very best of fathers , who allowed him to do as ho pleased. Parker also stated that ho had never hung uround banks In his life , and bad no Idea how checks were drawn up until shown by the man Walter. Charles Purkor , sr. , the boy's father , is n hnckmun living at 1000 Cass street. Ho says the boy has been employed at the new natatorium - torium on Howard stront , and hat been re ceiving $5 per week. Mr. Parker states that ho told the boy that as ho was now old enough to earn money ho ought to contribute something toward the family purso. Since that his sdn has been giving him $1 per week regularly. Ho was not awnro that the boy was in the habit of frequenting saloons or pool rooms until the developments of the past fovv days , as ho was compelled to bo away from homo most of the time. His family consists of himself anu two children , this boy and a girl , his wlfo being dead. Vitality and Vljjor Are quickly given to every part of the body Hood's Sarsaparilla.

To the Editor ot Tan Ban : Last Saturday the people of this city were horrified by ono of the most brutal and disgraceful scones over wit ness in this part of the country. The follow ing are tbo particulars by an eye-witness : Mr. James Gray , of Norfolk Junction , came up in nis buegy , hitching his horsa in front of A. Poswatk's blacksmith shop. Ho went about his business , returning at the end of an hour or so to find his horse and buggy gone. After looking about considerable bo mot Marshal O'Banion driving the rig down the street at a lively gait. Mr. Gray at once took possession of his horse and naturally expressed bis sentiments at tlio unwarranted liberty of O'Banion in appro priating the property without his permis sion , yet indulging in no abusive language beyond demanding pay for tbo use of his rig. Then O'Banion pounced upon his vic tim like a bulldog , striking Mr. Gray with his list ( in the back of bis neck ) , and as the unfortunate man turned , scetntnely to learn the cause of the attack , the brute seized him by tbo throat , and drawing his billy started with his prisoner for the ofllco of the police Judijo , several blocks away , shamefully boat ing and chokinir the poor man all the while. All this was without the slightest causu or provocation , us Mr. Gray did not once offer to resist or remon strate. Ono tiling was noticeably strange. O'Banion was hoard to say botwcen the blows and Jerks , "Tako that , d n you. I have had it In for you for two years. " To cap the climax his honor , the policy judge , fined the prisoner $8.70. Mr. Gray demurred nnd tbo amount was quickly cut down to S4.75. The xvritor has known Mr. Gray for years and can conscientiously testify to his good standing as a peaceable nnd sober citi zen. S. G.

Ho con trived to have the pair moot and the young German was delighted. An arrrango- inent was .made by the mutual friend , because the German spoke but llttlo English , while the woman's ' knowledge of Gcrmati was confined to the one word "ge- sundhoit , " and the twain were made one. Then the constable wanted bis money but the farmer would not pay , claiming that tbo woman was not worth the prlco , The con stable suqd him but failed to get a judgment. His name is R. J.
