A SlnmlnroiiR Attack.
Mrs. Helen M. Qougnr , of Indianapolis ,
well known in this state ns an agitator of
woman' * suffrage and prohibition , delivered
another of lior hitrangucs at TokamahTucs-
duy evening. Tbo meeting was tiohl In a
hull unowu ns the rink , ami every scat In the
building was occupied , Ihoro being present
probably tYno hundred nnd HfiV women nud
children , tnul from fifty to sovcnty-fivb men.
-Tills Hen roiircsontativo dlil not arrive at
Tehumah until 8:35 : , nnd by the time do
reached the hall Mrs. Oougar was In the
very midst of her pyrotechnics , mid the way1
stio was making the fur fly \vns a caution.
Sliu is n womitn probably verging close on
to fifty years of uge , with n rotund figure ,
nnd very mnsslvo , masculine features. On
the present occasion fcho was dressed In n
frock of aoiuo plain brown bluff , with n
yellow boxv at her throat , and licr
whlto hair done up in a sort of
a Popocatapotl peak on the crown
01 her ncad. Seated back of
her on the stage , In a semi-circle , was the
new Methodist minister , l { .v. Dayhoff , the
principal of the schools , ono Heck , with his
hair parted in the middle , n mwrtotto of
young girls , and three little boys.
\Vbon the reporter entered the I'idlnna
propagandist was in the midst of a llery out
burst descriptive of the dimensions und char
acter of .Mr. Peter Her ns a llrst class liar
and rtimbooJHst. With the cleverness of n
prcsUdigltalcur Mrs. Cougar would ily from
llor to woman's suffrage , from woman's suf
frage to temperance , from temperance to
polities , anil then back to llor. Her seemed
to bo the burden of her discourse for the
llrst half hour nfter the reporter's arrival ;
then she switched and jumped onto Omaha
with both feet , metaphorically speaking , of
course. After depleting what n slovmily ,
vilu , rum-besotted , sln-stccpnu , bankrupt
nictrojtolls this city is , shu told of
the beauties of Iowa under prohibi
tion. How for seven ynars absolute
tcetotalism had - boon enforced there ,
how the great state had gotten out of debt
under this reign , and how she was outstripping
ping the black blotch Nebraska muiio upon
the map m prosperity , culture , wealth nnd
general advancement.
Growing tired of this , she went back to
her pet theme of prohibition , drawing some
Dante Informo sketches of the curse of too
much "lush , " comuuring it with the old
slnvo trade in the south , "instead of bid
ding on those poor colored slaves In the antebellum -
bellum days , " she said. "It is thcso that the
rum seller is bidding on I Como horol" she
bellowed , turning und beckoning with her
hand to one of iho little fellows sitting upon
the stugo behind her. " .Lay down on your
back on the iloor , I want to show those good
people ttio sort of a sidewalk the IKjtior
dealers are building for them. " Then she
called the other boys and stretched them out
alongside the first , and putting one foot upon
the ( lolicuto abdomen of the one nearest her ,
she cried In Lndy Macbothcun tones. "Hero
is what the liquor dealer is bidding for dav
alter day ; here is the sidewalk the fiends of
Uacchus nro building for you fathers nnd
mothers and brothers and sisters to walk
over tons of thousands of thcso little darl
ings arc bid off by these devils every .year. "
This , of course , was a very touching und
dramatic scene , and when over there wasn't
a wet cyu in the ho'usc.
Mrs. Gougar's next point of assault was
Mr. Flosuwator and Tun BEE , and she pro
ceeded to recount the notorious slanders she
had retailed nt her Lincoln meeting the nieht
before ; how THE liKn had been subsidized
by the liquor dealers' association , and now
Mr. Rosewater had connived with the liquor
dealers to defeat the prohibition amendment
nnd how ho had been paid { 4,000 , for his
work , and all of which she said the house
journal , with the reports of the legislative
investigating committee , would show. Then
she specifically charged Mr. Kosowator with
having bribed or attempted to bribe'tho leg
islature , repeating time and time her speclllc
charges of bribery nud corruption , und ex
horting the people to rcbuko Mr. Uosowator
by drooping his paper , expunging it from
their households and instead subscribe for
the Now Republic , which is a true prohibi
tion sheet published at Lincoln , and for
which she is doubtless a canvasser.
Then she cot in her work for the period of
a quarter of an hour in a full paga "ad" for
the Now Republic , urging everybody to sub
scribe for it , that it only cost $1 per annum I
Then sno artfully touched upon the collec
tion question , talking low und soft and per
suasively as the hats wcro being passed
round.
When the chnpaux wore returned with
their cliniting nickels mid dimes , Mr. Dayhoff
unjointecl hU lengthy form , und reaching
down In the capacious depths of ono of his
cavernous pockets ho fished up a big ,
bright John dollar , and pinching it gingerly
between his index linger und thumb bo held
it aloft , lush auovo his head , and turning it
from aide to aide , so that all the audience
could behold its beautiful shimmer , ho
halted a moment in tins attitude , as much as
to say , "Look what I am going to do , " then
ho walked over to the stand and pitched the
huge siuioloon Into one of the hats , returning
to his scat like Alexander from his conquest
of the world. <
At this juncture Mr. Rosewater , who had
accompanied Iho reporter to the rink for the
purpose of facing Mrs. Gougar In her slan
derous personal charges uguinst him , and
demanding a retraction , nr at least tno
bourco of her Information , wnllted quietly
down the centre mslo , and in a respectful
manner asked "if ho would bo parmittcd to
ask the lady a question. "
Mrs. Gougur was evidently expecting him
und had possibly been apprised of his pres
ence In the hall , for , she sprung eagerly to
the front of the stage und in a loud , strident
voice , cried : "Mr. Rosownter cnnnot
speak In this bouse. Put him out. I call on
the men of Tckutn.m to defend'inc. . Arrest
him and \hruw him in jail. "
In an instant ths hull was fu n budlam ,
and cries arose from all parts
of the house "Put him out 1
Put him out. Arrest him I Throw him in
the nvuri" und a bowline mob seemed about
to swoop down upon Mr. Uosowate. ' und rend
him limb from limb. All this savau'o dem-
onstratlou , however , did not seem to perturb
the gentleman to any measurable extant. Ho
only folded lite hands in front of him. and
guzcd upon the howling dervishes as If lie
was only amused at the circus being enacted
about him. Ninoty-nino men out of u hun
dred would have lied for their liven.
Mr. Rosawater finally retired to the rear
of the hall , und tbo uproar subsided.Vhilo
it was. . ut its height , however , there were
Bovorul gentlemen who crowded forward to
Mr. Rosewater'a aid , notably ono former ,
who exclaimed to the people , "i'ou arc hurt
ing your cause ; this is 110 way to act. Mr.
Rosewater should bo beard. "
After order had been restored Mrs. Par-
nudoo , the president of the W. C. T , U. , at
thoinbtlgaliou of Mrs. Gougar , arose and
thanked the audience for rebuking Mr.
HoBowater , and for not allowing him to speak
in their meeting. Then receiving another
prompting Irom Mrs. Gougar , she mibmittcd
a motion asking that Mr. Rosewater bo
censured by the meeting , and called for a
standing vote. All of the men , however , in
the houboat iho time , were on their li'ct , and
tbo motion went through with a whoop
Mr , Rosewater denounced the Htorics told
by Mrs. Gougur us lies , and stated to the
crowd that they should have allowed him an
opportunity to buvo defended himself when
ho was being charged in such un unwar
ranted manner with crime , but by thin time
tlioy wuro pouring out of the hall , and seeing
tlifiro was no chance for any sort of a hoar-
lug , ho left , und in company with the re
porter proceeded to the depot , where an hour
after ho was placed under arrest.

AMUSUMUNTS.
Ktuina Abbott lias not changed a particle
since she was hero two years ngo. Her ap
pearance on the stage at 13oyd's opera house
last night was the signal for n huarty wel
come by nn excellent audience of old friends
and admirers. They saw her in un entirely
now rolu to them , nud in an opera never bo
lero produced huro , ouo of Ualfo's efforts entitled -
titled the "Roso of Castile. " Miss Abbott's
part , that of Elvira , is distinguished in this
respect : Whllo queen she becomes romantic
and musqucrudcs as a peasant cirl , fulls in
love with the king of Castile , Manual , who
is also disguised and playing mule
teer , subsequently marries him und
also discovers the existence of a conspiracy
planned by u cousin , Don Pedro , for her im
prisonment la a convent. Hotli the story
and music of this opera are very pretty ,
clean-cut nnd meritorious from the nrtlstic
standpoint , but it Jacks in the elements of
spirit and action necessary to arouse much
enthusiasm on the part of an audience. ' How
ever , it was''Woll ' reiich'ed last night , and
several of the numbers wcro liberally ap
plauded. Its weak point is in concerted
music. Miss Abbott sustained the double
impersonation of Elvira in the most ploasinu
manner , her changes from queen to peasant
showing artistic versatility and strong
powers of comprehension. One of the most
roinarkablo characteristics of Emma Ab
bott as au operatic star is noted In
the comuicndnhlo fact that after ten years of
constant work her voice is Just as pure , clear ,
sweet nnd musical as it was when she com
menced her career. There uro very low
Kre.it singers of whom as much can bo said.
They generally Hash brilliantly through
three or four seasons and then drop out of
sight. Not BO with .her. In this opera Miss
Abbott had no opportunity to display her
self , either In vocalism or acting , though stio
sang the part well nnd was as charming an
over. Her costume * , too , were up to the
Abbott standard , ut least two of the court
dresses worn being perfect gems of beauty
und style , furthermore , she has kept her
conpuny : Intact so long that it is like a big
family , and wo.rku in such complete har
mony that any other than u smooth nctfonn-
nuccr would dunoto almost criminal indifference
ence- . William Prtiett assumed lust night the
character of Don Pedro , and when the fact
is taken into consideration that ho only had
twelve hours In which to study the part he
gave a splendid performance. Mr. Brod-
erick's illness loft them without n principal
basso.consequently it devolved upon Prtiatt to
take his place. The young man deserves un
bounded credit for having demonstrated his
ability to successfully cncompas such a try
ing task. Miss Lizzin Annaudiilo and
Michelina wcro also in line form and goud
voice. They shared the honors of the o veil
ing with the star. In fact , Miss Aunandalo
niudutho most pronounced hit of an } ' ono In
the cast. Her .solo nt the opening of the
third act won the little ladv a double -encore
and an elegnut boquot of flowers. Michc-
lina'n romauza. just before the final curtain ,
struck the audience so forcibly that ho was
compelled to repeat It.
