A Traveling IMuu'B Touuli Treatment.
Hurry llussclb.irth , traveling snlcstnnn for
ihoOIuho tobacco company of Detroit , was
In the city yesterday explaining the work
ings of the lord mayor's court in LcMars , In.
Ho was Bolng to his hotel , ho said , about 1
o'clock on Wednesday mornlug when ho
noticed u policeman following him , and
stopped In front of the hotel to see what ho
wanted The policeman , who was tlilcli
licatled and dcop-voIccJ , ordered IIaiolharth
to go homo , according to the story of the lat
ter. Ho said ho wiisn't In any hurry , and
supposed ho had n right to walk on the
fitrei't.s IT ho clida't inalto any disturbance.
The policeman , however , llko most oflk-ers in
small towns , was looking for a stranger to
jump on , to give an exhibition of his etll-
lency as mi ofllcor. So ho collared Air.
IIiuHC'llurtli and ran him into the cooler , re
fusing to let him go to the hotel to got bunds.
'JL'hcro ho was Iccpt luntil the next morning ,
when hovan taken before Mayor Priestly by
the val"iit ! ofllcer , Nlo Hetitgcs , and llnd : ju.
The mayor iidmltted that there was no cuio
against the man , but lined hint because ho
clliln't Instantly obey the couinmnds of the
olllcor the night boloro.
Thtr ofllccr admitted that TIasselbarth was
soher and limiting no dUturbuuco until he
came up and ordered him to go home. Has-
Holbartli was pretty hot , but ho couldn't
nJIofd to .stay thcru anil light. Several Lo
Alaw citizens who were Indignant at the In
justice tlono Ilasseluarth offered to pay his
hotel bills if ho would stay and show up tlio
major's ignorance mid the marshal's unwar
ranted action , Hiisbelburth thinks It is tlio

Dollar HUN for Cigar MglitorH.
A drummer fora largo wholesale clothing
Jiouso has u trick which ho says saves him a
great deal of money. He has to go around
with reUilers In small country towns n great
deal. Ho llnds that mi amount of display
nnd extravagance is necessary in order to
convince them of the standing and generous
dealing of his house. This used to cost him
U great deal of money In traveling expense ! ) .
" Ho was expected to bear a great part of tlio
expense of entertaining the men to whom ho
Bold goods : ho had to buy them drinks txuil
cigars and take them around. In the course
of this ho had to drink u good deal himself.
Ho noticed that It was not so much the
amount o money that ho spent , but the show
, that ho inado with It which Impressed them ,
luul that it was more important to acorn caro-
JOSM ami . ( fonc'rouH iimn really to spend
pieat deal of monoy.
Oao night ho was with some retail clothiers
nnd their friends drinking. Ho had several
flimiU bills in his pocket. Ho had boon drink
ing a good deal liluiself mid in a reckless way
pulled out n bill and lit u cigar with It. With
out thinking ho put out the light and stuck
the burned remnant in his waistcoat pocket.
Ho noticed how it impressed the mou with
Wham ho was. The bill did not amount to
buy more than the price of n round of drinks
or cigars , but it made the oycs of his cus
tomers open to think that a man should use
xnoiioy in Hiieh ft rookloas way. The next day ,
When ho sobered up , ho found the burned bill
in his pocket , only ono end of It having been
burned. Ho thought ho had made a fool of
himself by throwing away good monoy. The
Idea occurred to him , however , that possibly
lie could take the bill around to tlio sub-Irons-
ury and get a now bill for it. So ho sent tlio
burned bill to the sub-treasury , where it was
readily exchanged for a new ono. The bill
Jind not been destroyed ; It was plain what its
denomination , number and issue wcro , and ho
Jiiul no trouble in having it replaced.
if The Iileu became strong In his mind that ho
inight do the ostentatious and reckless net
Without having to pay for it. So the next
tlmo ho was out with several of his customers
no bought ft few rounds of it rinks , mid then
began la n reckless way to burn up II nnd S3
tills. Hi ) took pains to put the bills buck iu
Ills pocket , and not to burn up enough of any
Olio bill to destroy its redeemable qualities.
Ho also told his customers extravagant stories
nbottt the percentages his house was paying
Jblin , how cheap It was selling , and what lib
eral concessions ho was muldiip to get rid
Of the stock wnich his. house had on
Jiand. Ho found
the trlclc worked ex
cellently. IIo hag boon carrying it on
ever since to a greater or less extent.
Ono night ho held a card party of soinoof liis
customers ot his rooms at the hotel and think
ing that possibly they might notice that ho
immediately put the bills out and put them
back in hli poekot , ho used dollar bills for
lighters during the whole evening and then
throw them in cuspidor which ho kept l > v
Ills chair , llrst putting them out before ho
throw them In , so that they might not bo
burned tip there , After his customers hud
loft ho took the cover off the cuspidor , took
the bills out , folded them all up and had them
redeemed afterwards at the subtroasury. llo
lias gained the reputation of being ono of the
most careless and oxtruvagcut men on the
road , without its costing him as much for ex
penses with his customers as it costs ether
jsulosmon who do not burn up their monoy.

AM03ETS CAMPING ON HIS TRAIL ,

Ijleutcimiits.
. Probably not moro than half a dozen spcc-
l .Uors witnessed the political tragedy enacted
n the democratic county convention Satur
day afternoon at Washington hall. Unless
omebody told them since , those who wcro
.hero huvo no idea that anything outsldoof
.ho monotonous vut or dry routine business
occurred.
But the most desperate struggle ever tnado
o prevent an ambitious individual , nnd his
'rlcnds from being absolutely exterminated
: ) olltlc.illy toolt pl.tco during a. ten minutes
recess , during which was made tip the list of
state convention delegates. C. S. Montgom
ery , Euclid Martin , Fr.mk Jlorrlssoy.Charloy
Drown , Charles Ogden nnd Postmaster Oal-
ngher were the chief actors. By ono vote
Mayor Gushing was saved the humilia
tion of a party castigatlon , nlmost as
sweeping nnd pronounced In Its severity as
that recently administered to W. J. Uroatch
and his Twenty-eight club.
To the uninitiated who have been bom
barded for two weeks with loudly proclaimed
speeches about Uushlng's ' wonderful popular
ly , It would appear that the democracy of
Douglas county was not only solidly united ,
but eager to oifor him thu nomination for
governor on a silver platter ,
Imagine , therefore , what a battering-ram
of surprise must have struck the mayor's
llttlo coterie of lieutenants when they real
ized that unless something heroic could bo
done to change tlio tide of sentiment ho
would not oven bo elected a dclegato to the
convention.
Montgomery anil Martin were after dish-
Ing'a scalp , and uoro determined to get it.
Montgomery had been beard to say that
" \Vo don't ' want that follow on our delega
tion , lie went back on all his party friends ,
became the tool of a gang of bushwhackers ,
and does not represent the democratic party
of Nebraska. "
Back of all tills Is n preat deal of interest
ing history. Aftot Cuslilnjj's election to the
mayoralty. Montgomery and Ogdcn wcro
both prominent candidates for the olUco of
city attorney , and report has it that
ho promised each tlio appointment.
Having thus placed himself in a coinpro.ms-
ing position , Gushing subsequently Ignored
both and conferred the honor upon JV. .1. 1'op-
ploton. Similar action , it is claimed , has been
pursued by Mr. C'usbliig in till bis appoint
ments , llo always stood ready to promisn
the party leaders ami workers anything they
a-vlced at his hands , but invariably acted di
rectly opposite to their wishes.
As a consequence , when Morrissey and the
other city appointees commenced booming
their Clavclaiid-liko champion for govcinor ,
these men quietly slipped long-bladod knives
into their bolts and calmly waited for Satur
day's convention. They wcro all there and
lost no time In putting such deadly gashes
Into the aspiring mayor's ambition as will
cause it to wither and finally die.
There were 10U votes in the convention.
Among others , Charles Ogdcn was proposed
as a candidate for dolot'ato to the state con
vention , and every ono of the lot ; votes was
cast for him. This strong evidence of Mr.
Ogdeu's standing -with his party more
than pleased thoautl-Cushingelement. They
accepted this as n great rebuke to the mayor
for his shabby treatment of Ogdcn.
The selection of delegates proceeded.
Cushing's friends wanted him put on
nnd made chairman. Mr. Poppleton
had a few followers there who preferred
to sep him head the list. By tills time the
Gushing "crowd began to see where things
were drifting to , and commenced lllibustcr-
ing. They succeeded in ( jotting through a.
motion to take n ton ininuto recess. In tbo
meantime messengers had been sent llylng
after Morrissey nnd Gallagher. They got to
the hall as quickly ns possible , were
told briefly what the situation was , and.sailed
in to stem the tide.
Gallagher , however , declined to exert him
self at lirst , claiming that ho felt no interest
in seeing cither CusulngorPoppleton elected.
As between the two , though , ho preferred tc
boo 1'opploton shelved , and did what he could
to bring about that result.
Morrissey was fratittc. IIo had nol
expected such bold assumption from
Cushing's enemies , and it completely
knocked the enthusiasm out of him. An
open light would have been much
moro to his credit , but ho was smnit enough
to see very quickly that It would not do to
undertake It thero. A different policy had to
bo adopted. Ho went to the delegates per
sonally , and with tears In his eyes bcggct
each and all of them , for his sake , tjio
party's sake and the city's sake not to
leave Gushing oil the delegation. If over n
man labored , pleaded , prayed and importuned ,
the gurbngcnmstcr of Omaha did for all ho
was worth.
"When the convention mot again and the
selection of delegates proceeded , Gushing
was elected and 1'opploton was de
feated. It must ho understood , how
ever , that Gushing wont iu simply "by
the skin of his tooth. " Out of 10 : .
votes cast ho received only llf ty-ono.
"While wo would rather have snowed his
excellency under entirely , " said an old tlmo
mossback yoatenlny , "his narrow escape
from such a fate is no small rebuke , nnd ii
will open the oycs of a great inauy ptoplo iu
this community. "
"To all surface appearances , " romaikcd
another democratic war horse , "Saturday's
gathering was unusually harmonious , but ]
can tell you the llrcs of jealousy bin-net
quito briskly , ami in nn underhanded wnj
several ancient scores were settled. It wn ?

it failed to crop out. There is a general im
pressiou nuroau tnnt wo selected n Boyu dole

You see , J. Sterling Morton wants the hone
of receiving that nomination. Itoyd has salt
ropentouly that ho don't cnro 'for it. If
when the now congressional apportionment i
made , Douglas and Sarpy counties happoi
to bo thrown into a district , J. E

j\t the present , time it is somewhat dlfllctilt
to distinguish the young womm from the
young man , on account of the abominable
fashions now in voguo. It Is the ambition o f
the former to bo as inascuhno la dress as pos
sible , which certainly reflects little credit on
their taste , and undoubtclly shows a defi
ciency in these womanly attributes which
should belong to the gentler sex , says Eniuia
Howard Wright in the Chicago lutor-Ocoati.
An citcmlnato tuau is an object of diagu-s
both to his own set and the opposlto.and why
should not a masculine woman ho the same i
Indeed , lam ready to assert that she Is to
men , lot her flatter herself as she may , to the
contrary.
She may consider herself irresistible in ho
masculine got up , her blazer , her cravat , her
cutaway coat , her sailor hat , and with her
masculine stride , and her male friends may
tell her that she is ( for man's tongue can wag
glibly enough in the language of flaUorybut , )
ho really feels anything clso but admiration ,
and if she would add apc.lrof pantaloons to
her upper tret-up and pay a visit to Ibo club ,
thus effectually disguised , she would have i
pretty rough awakening to men's opinion it
general on the subject of womea's masculine
tendency.
It would bo very unnatural If men did nd
mire th.it . sort of tiling. M'hat attracts n mm ;
toward n woman , by all the laws of nature ,
nro thu softness , thu gentleness , the womanli
ness , which belong to her sox. He would bo
going against the very laws of nature if In
admired her when she lllngs a&idothcso at
tributes of her sox. So let these young
women who go in enthusiastically for mitscu
line style of dress , disabuse their minds ul
oncb ot the erroneous Idea tliat men admire it ,
for they do not. It Is just as repulsive and
disgusting to them us tlio effeminate munis U
a woman , and just i n proportion as a wonuii :
admires a strong , brave , manly man , so dt
'
men uu'iuiro a womanly woman , and would fa :
rather see her \vlth nil the weaknesses and
follies of her sex than to bo in the slightos
dofiroo strong-minded or m isculino.
fjo if young women Jcsiro to bo attractive in
the eyes of men , mid I think ull do , thoywil
not adopt tbo fashion of masculine dross nov
in vogue , 'luurocan bo but 0110 induceuion
to do so surely , and that if bccuubO it is th
fashion , for it is certainly not becoming or
oven piquant as some fondly imagine. The
thin girl undoubtedly succeeds In looking do
cidcdly masculine , the style of dress showing
up her angularity und effectually exposing
her worst points ; while her stout sister looks
only supremely ridiculous , us it is impossible
for her to look inuunisb , and the dross become
a caricature.
Notless ubomlnablonre the "dressreforms
( deforms would bo inorii appropriate ) thu' '
some women are endeavoring to introduce
for instance , Mrs. Jcimess Miller's divide
skirt. 1 fail to see ono sinjjlo thing : to recom
mend it. It is certainly neither graceful 1101
pretty , and , from its construction I can no
t Mtilr it. nmiifnrtjlhln. Of pnlirsn tt
the purpose of these vomcii who ride bicycles
anil astride a hoi&o llko a , man , but I think it
greatly to bo deplored that women do thcso
things.
There is no reason why they sliould not
talto part In out door spor's , ou the contrary ,
many good reasons why they should , but still
tills can bo done without sacrificing delicacy
and womanliness. A great many women have
taken to cycling enthusiastically , the newspapers -
p-apors iidmlro and appland , but this docs not
inako it tbo less objectionable from a refined
nnd feminine point of view. There Is some
thing out of place , unwomanly , and , to mo ,
vulgar in the sight of a woman mounted on u
bloyclo , and the fashion which is now strug
gling into llfo of women astriding a horsollko
u man is simply disgusting.
Some yours ago there could bo no prettier
sight than a woman who could sit gracefully
and rhlo well on horsobauld Then the long
llowlngsklit was done away with and the
pnnts substitute ! under the short skirt ,
which toolc a good deal away from the beauty
and grace of horseback riding. Now they
seem determined to do away altogether witn
the charm of hoi-sobatic -
i-idlng and use it only
as an unfominuto exhibition of themselves.
If women would but bo convinced of the
mUtako they make in being in any way nnis-
cullno. As I sold before , men regard it only
with disgust , or If ti woman's oxpcrtncss in
some of their sports should win their admir
ation it Is lii a sort of bon-coinrado way , they
ro.illy lose sight of tlio fact that she is a wo
man and look upon her us one of their own
sox , a kind of admiration I shouldn't think
any woman would covot.
It is really the duty of every woman to bo
what tiaturo has made her. thoroughly femi
nine. Nature never Intended for woman to
model herself after n man , but by her oppo
site qualities , her womanliness , to minister
to the happiness , to clevato the sterner sex.
In a word , nature made her a woman nnd , by
putting aside any of her prcrogatlvosho goes
against its very law. Surely , there is awido
enough sphere for woman without trans
gressing uixm that of man , or overstepping
that well-aeflnod boundary linowhich divides
what is masculine and what is fomluino ,
Tlio American Girl Abroad.
Henry Jnincs' witty sketch of Daisy Miller ,
while it otTi'inlod soma fmv Americans who
did not understand It , has helped innumer
able other Americans , who learned through
his dcllcato satire moro than they would
through n volume of well Intcnttoncd maxims ,
writer Mrs. John Sherwood In the North
American llovlow. So there are few , if any ,
dinners who commttt the gross error of too
great familiarity with n couricror who walks
to the Uollbouui by 11100.1 JgUt attended only
by a gentleman. The sins which American
glrU commit , In European ejes , nro the sins
against public manners , llko loud laughing
nnd talking In hotel parlors , in the snllo a
manger of a waftingplace , In the Casino nt
Monte Carlo , In their attitude and manner at
a cafe In Pails , and soon , in the matter of
dveis , an American girl rises to the situation
at once. She Is very rarely , if over , badly
dressed , Given such nn amount of prcttlness
ns Bho hns , such qulclmo.ss of eyes mid solong
a purse , 1'urla dresses her ar.mi avis , nnd she
wears her clothes llho a queen , eras
as queens but seldom do. It
is astonishing when ono sees such
tnsto in ono direction , that ono can see such
limitations of taste , in the matter of man *
nors , but it Is quite evident that some young
American girls think , If the outside of thu
platter Is clean , it is no matter about the
inside. They neglect * hclr speech , which is
a mutter of vital Importance , i'or wherever
wo live , whether in Yorkshire or Homo ,
1'corla or 1'nris , there ai-o such things as a
cultivated voice , n correct pronunciation , and
a pretty accent. No one Is so dependent upon
this chnrm ns a woman. It has made many a
plain woman attractive this pi ft of speech.
And the Venus of Mlle would become u
frieht , If she could open that glorious mouth
of hern , nnd If f rom it should muo an uiii'iil-
tlvated voice saying "borf for "heart , "
"mot-mo" for "inatnnm , " or , dollllng her
ehwtlc features for the moment , she would
glvo an unmusical citcklo and launch Into
slang. It vl'l ' not help the A"ioi-lcan girl to
say , "she don't care. " She docs care. Th ro
Is a natlvt'-born AmeriiMti nrisiorrai'y , to
which all should nspiro to belong. The orlgl
mil and beautiful American women b ivo a
vivacity and wit which the older civlii/ations
have lost. She should never lose lu-r origi
nality. But she should study to bo low-
voiced , a sweet-voiced , calm , quiet , and
thorough-bred.
