At 7 o'clock last evening n gang of half a
dozen newsboys from Omaha came over on a
motor with a plentiful supply of morning
_ Bii ! : ' . Ono of them , whoso voice Is like a
foghorn , announced that thev were copies of
a "BKK extra all about the great Indian
massacre. " The proclamation created a great
deal of excitement and the boys were sur
rounded by throngs of people , who eagerly
purchased the papers , and In less
than tlvo minutes each boy had
dispose of his bunch of papers. The
pancm ware simply the morning Issue , but
before the purchasers had discovered the
fact the newsboys had boarded an Omaha
train and wcro out of reach. There was no
extra Issued , and Tim Iii : : was In no manner
responsible for the hoax , tbo papers having
been purchased from a number of news
dealers ou the other side of the river.
Toward the last the boys sold.ttio papers for

negroes were encaged In a dispute In the
back : room adjoining. Ainonj , ' tlio disputants
was n mulatto barber named Bert Kaslcy ,
wm
another negro imnied MeFndden and a itog.
The clog was the cause of the trouble , It belonged -
longed to Emlcy unit McKadden kicked it out
olhi the room , A moment later the pious ex
hortations of the preacher In the front room
were punctuated hv a pislol shot , nnd the
bullet passed through the room nnd out Into
the street. Another shot , accompanied by
the sound of orcaltiiiR glass , thu screams of
women and children and the hurried
illvht of u number of terrified people

sion and attracted a good deal of attention of
lii'oplct on the streets. A police call was scat

I.essoiiH From Failures.
At St. Paul's church yesterday morning
, bo rector , Hev. T. J. Mackoy , called the at-
ention of tils congregation to the numerous
essons drawn from failures and hard times.
Hn elioso as his text the words found In
snlh 41-10 : "Fear thou not ; for I am with
lie ; bo not dismayed , for I am thy God ; I
ivlll strengthen theo ; yea , I will help tbce ;
en , 1 will uphold tliee with the right hand of
my righteousness. "
The speaker culled attention to the un-
chaugeablcncss of God and the stability of
His laws. There was a monotony in life and
ns ono advanced in years the oupressiveness
of this was apt to bo more realized. Spring
followed winter , and winter followed summer
only to bo followed in turn by spring again.
With the fuilniK of one's youthful vigor of
life there- came an indifference to these
chances of seasons and scenes. The
wlieel of life constantly moving , yet
over in a. circle , brought around und
around the same old changesof
light and dark , of success and failure , of Joy
and sorrow. Some .sought to relieve the
monotony by plunging into social pleasures ,
othe'-s sought change of scenery by travel ,
but even these resources soon became tinged
by the snmo monotony. What had been will
bo. Ono often remarked : "I never gained
such a pleasant friend , " or "I never before
had so ulsagiccablo an acquaintance. " If
ono stopped to think , these pleasant friends ,
these disagreeable acquaintances , wcro but
old friends and old acquaintances , jiuler
different faces and different mime * .
There was a uniformity in human nature.
Citizens sometimes thought there never was
so slow , tin progressive a town as that in
which they lived. Yet if they looked about
they would llml many others equally blessed I
with a duo pioportionof these hindrances to
progress. There was sometimes a difference
in tlio proportions , but in every city were to
bo found all the varied phases of human
nature , mid Human nature was much the same
the world over and In all Hires.
It was being commonly remarked that
thcro never were such hard times us these.
Young men had perhaps never experienced
such times , but those of riper * experience
know tbero hiid been ninny such times. Yet
there never was a tlmo so hard that the
handful of meal was altogether wasted , nor
did the llttlo oil in the cruse altogether fail.
By turning back the pages and reading
anew the history of the post ono could not
but be thankful that the present experience
was not so hard or sad as previous
ones. Ono also learned that in the
most terrible trials of the past men bud been
brought through In safety , out of the storm
into the sunlight avaln.
These times of failure nnd of distress were
made prominent , too , by the very fact that
they were so few , as compared with tlio long
seasons of success nnd pro perity. The
Niagaras , the rupids , the cataracts , the great
falls , were noted because they wcro so few in
comparison witli the long , peaceful , on wan
sweep of the river , nslt coursed Its way for
miles over sunny plains and through
restful valleys. There must bo some
caverns , some rocky mountain beds ,
some nreciplces , but as the river
ever passed ) through all xucli turbulent
scones , and over reached the iilaln , nnd sped
a few miles through peace ami plenty until it
joined Us I fiend the oc nii , so human life ,
though by the necessity of its being , passeif
through scenes ot darkness nnd disturbance.
Its greater course was alter all amid scenes
of plenty and prosperity.
with all the seeming monotony n..d the re
currence of events , yet there was evident a
sto-idy advancement. Good grs\v brighter
year by year. The world was growing
better , not worso. No new year
opened so hopefully as that of 1801.
The cause of labor hud advanced , Its hours
shortened , its burdens lightened. Woman
had been uplifted , und thus social purity in
creased. Never before had men been ready
to relieve the distress of the poor und suffer
ing. Never had the brotherhood of man been
so practically and universally recognized.
So In nil lines of human progress the world
had advanced.
Strength often cnmo from failure. Stalls
tics showed that K > per cent of nil business
men at some time failed. If it man after
bravely battlinu.was defeated , If ho honestly
tailed ho should not feel that there was no
hope. Others had failed , had sprung to their
feet again and hud bravely , success
fully pushed their way to the front ,
gaining wisdom by post mistakes and strength
from past struggles. So with moral failure.
They should bring no lothariry of discourage
ments. By rising above them , strength could
bo gained by this very experience , nnd the
failure prove a real blessing ,
Hundreds of miles distant a bank was in
distress. The wires Hashed from ono com
mercial center to another. The wires returned - .
turned the quick offer of relief nnd help ,
showing the great heart of the business
world throbbed with * practical sympathy.
Tno great danger was tuns averted. This
was growing to bo rnoro and more the senti
ment of true commercial llfo. Never before
hud there beeu such community of Interests ,
such willingness to help each other. No
longer did any man live to himself alone.
The distress of ono was the distress of all.
When the time should arrive when men
wcro ns quick to recognize and relieve their
brothers' ' moral hurts nnd spiritual wants as
to recognize and relieve his llnanclal neoita ,
the rclim of Emmanuel would Indeed have
begun on earth.
These times of distress brought Into oxer-
clso the sympathy of the human heart. To
those who thus helped carry the burdens of
the weaker there cnmo blessings to bo gained
In no other way.
The year just opened was to bo n happy
one. not because It would bo free from trials
and troubles , but because the history of the
past gave assurance that they would bo fnr
fewer than the blessings. The year will
shown still greater advancement of good.
Above nil there was the comfort to bo gained
from the assurance of God's abiding love and
protection and the words of the text should
bo Impressed upon each heart "I am with
thcc , I will help thee. "

Why die Snl'iouVnr AVna Itognn.
"Thcro Is no intention of closing the
saloons In Council Bluffs , " said an ofllccr
who stands high In authority while discuss
ing yesterday the mayor's ' order doubling the
amount of the license to bo exacted hereafter.
"Thero is no Intention on the part of the city
to close the saloons , because the people do
not want them closed. There arc some good
pconlo who would llko to have them shut up
nnd forever kept shut , but the great majority
don't want them closed , and woarc compelled
to observe their wishes. Ono of the
reasons for doubling the license is
the hope ol preventing the Increase
of the number of drinking winces
In the city. Of Into they have been growing
at nn astonishing rate , and a check-is de
manded. Another nnd better reason is to
bring them under better police resttiction.
Some of them are becoming too much of a
nuisance , affording a shelter and headquar
ters for too many crooks and contldenco men ,
nnd wo thought it a good plan to make good
behavior an object to all of them. Some of
them will not hesitate { o forfeit n small
license who will be very cautious how they
run their places after they have paid a largo
amount for the permission to run.
"Another thing , the saloon men themselves
say thcro are too many plnccs In the city , and
they are anxious to have the license raised In
the hope that 11 will Hhut off many of the
llttlo holes-in-the-wall where n disreputable
business Is done that hurts nil.
"vVo are not afraid of Colonel Ltndt nnd

The 'Thirty-Seventh General Assembly
\Vi I Convene Wednesday.
Si'iiiNariui.D , II1. , Jan. 4. The thirty-
seventh general assembly of Illinois will con
vene In regular session Wednesday , January
7 , at the state caiitol. ) There are three or
four candidates for every ollleo from that of
presiding otllcor to the humblest clerk , and
the rivalry for some of these positions almost
reaches . a dogrco of acrimony. The contest
for the spcakership of the house of repre
sentatives is of the most importance because
this olllcial must preside over the delibera
tions of the general-assembly and pronouneo
on . the regularity of the proceedings In the
United States senatorial contest. The demo
crats have seventy-seven members in the
house , the republicans seventy-three and the
farmers' ' mutual benefit association three ,
so that if every member of the party is pros
cut the democrats have it in their power to
elect a speaker on iho llrst ballot. For this
position I Clayton B. Crafts of Cook county Is
the foremost candidate. Up to within the
past few days Crafts has bad lively opposition
in the persons of Hufus N. Ktimsoy of Clin
ton , John Kddy of McLean , S. B. Craitr of
Coles , J. W. Hunter of Knox and Keed
Green of Alexander. Green , however , re
cently was withdrawn and Craig is not pur
suing an active contest , while Kddy Is under
stood to have recently thrown his support to
Crafts. Therefore tbo contest has now nar
rowed down to a race between Crast nnd
Hamsey , with Hunter still nn avowed candi
date , but with no considerable following.
"I will bo nominated by the democratic
caucus on the llrst ballot , " said Crafts
tonight , when Interrogated as to his strength.
"I have already recoivcd pledges nnd as
surances from enough democratic members
to Insure my nomination. I am making no
particular claims , " said Ramsey , "because I
think thu number of members who hnvo
given definite pledges of support nro less
than one third of these who will participate
in the caucus. "
For the republican caucus nomination for
the spcakership have been mentioned the
names of Allen of Vermillion , \Vlilte ol
"Whltcsldc , Partridge of Lake , Whitehead of
Cook nnd I'addoclc of ICniiknkcc. The lead
ing candidates are Allen , White nnd Partridge -
tridgo , and ono of these will doubtless rc-
ccivo the honor. The republicans hope that
there may bo some defection in the demo
cratic ranks , which will enable the combined
strength of the republicans und of the far
mers' mutual benefit association members to
organize the house.
The state scnuto is composed of twenty
seven republicans and twenty-four demo
crats , so there Is little doubUof the ability o !
the republican party to organize this branch
Of the general assembly according to the die
talcs of its caucus.
The chief Interest In the coming session
centers in the contest for the election of a
United States senator to succeed Farwell
Tbo two principal contestants for this honoi
are General I'almer , democratic cancidato
and Senator Farwell , the present Incumbent
who expects n reuomination and win
thinks thu republicans , by good management
can ultimately win. Another name mcntionoi
in connection with the contest is that of Hon
David Hess of LnSallo a republican member
of the last house of representatives and cdl
tor of the Miner's Jounr.il. ( joneral Palme
\vas seen tonight and asked his opinion as to
the senatorial situation.
"Wo are hopeful , " ho snld. "Thcro Is no
break In thu democratic ranks. "
When asked if n break should occur amonj ,
republicans who is the strongest man nftc
Farwell , Palmer said : "Llndloy is certninlj
the man. Hols president of the farmers
mutual benefit association. "
One subject to come before the Icglslatur
that all parties seem agreed should have par
tlcular attention , is a revision of the prosen
election law , ami the remedy Is the Austra
lian system or Its cqulvulcut.

Solomon's foot caught in the string , the
action belnp followed by the discharge of the

Appcnl of Alulinma Miner * .
COLUMHUS , O. , Jan. ! . The United Mlno
Wordcrs have Issued nn appeal to organized
labor of ttio country , which Is approved by
the American federation of labor. The ap
peal concludes : "Tho miners cff Alabama
nro worse treated than those of any other
section of the country. Not only have wo to
compote with the curse of convict labor
In the mines , but wo nro worse
treated than the convicts. The
frco miners nro practically at the niorcv
of the representatives of corporations and
monopolies , the shareholders of which reside
In Great Britain and have only an interest in
the mines to the amount of the dividend they
receive , earing llttlo for the lives or wclfnro
of these employed therein. If wo are to ho
successful these men must get assistance.
This Is n struggle not only for wages , but for
the right to organize. "

Several Moro Unsuccessful Attempts
tn CrosH ilKvIlrlditc.
The Union Pnciflc-MUwuulceo-Kock Island
situation was practically unchanged yester
day. ' '
The Hock Island had announced that it
would bring Its llrst train across the bridge ,
in accordance with the terms of the contract
by which the Milwaukee was also to have
como in several days ago/
An attempt was made to brinir over
n train during the afternoon , but the
result was identically the same as
has attended several slrajlar attempts on the
part of the Milwaukee utter failure. The
switches wore found occupied by Union 1'a-
clllo engines nnd freight cars , nnd it was Im LI I-
possible to get through ,
The Milwaukee made another attempt to
cross in the morning , but could only pull out
to the torn up track and back in again ,
Kveryttdng about the transfer appeared
even moro qu let than usunl , W. I. Allen ot
Chicago , assistant general manager of the
Hook Island , came in during the forenoon In
his special car. Ho was accom
panied by Division Superintendent
Stillwoll ol Horton , Kan. They
made n careful survey of thu yards and
extended their trip to South Omaha. It was
under Mr. Allen's direction that an attempt
was made to bring a train over the bridge ,
The llrst move was to try the track over
which the Milwaukee had thus far f rultlossly
pulled back and forth. The Hock Island
train pulled out to the pluca where the track
was torn up merely as n matter of
form und then backed into the transfer ,
Inasmuch ns the Hock Island has two outlets -
lets another trial wns made , Uils tlmo
through the freight yards , Three Union Pa
cific engines nnd n string of freight cars wore
standing In their path. Mr , Allen demanded
that they bo moved , nnd the Union Paclllo
trainmaster stated that bis switchmen wcro
on a strike , hcnco the cars could not bo
moved.
. "Very well , " said Mr. Allen , "then I will
back down and wait until you and your men
come to terms. "
"It won't ' do you nnv good , " replied the
trainmaster , with a good nnturod smile , "for
the strike will not bo settled for three or four
days. "
That settled It for the day nnd nothing
further was done.
Mr , Lowe of Chicago , general coun
sel : for the Hock Island , came In
Saturday evening mid during the creator
part of yesterday wns in close consultntlon
with Mr. Allen and the local ollleluls of thu
company. It wns rumored that n sensational
brief would bo tiled in court tlila morning ,
but none of the ofllcinl.s would give any lii-
lormation ou the subject , although they did
nevi deny that speedy legal action
wns contemplated. They preferred to
ullow Mr. Lowe to toll : regarding
that phnso of the situation , nnd ns Mr. Lowe
could not be found , of course ho did not offer
nnv enlightenment.
Air. Allen wns scon during the evening in
his : room at the Paxton , and stated that ho
was hero to see about getting the trains of
his : company across Into Omaha In accord
ance with the terms of the con
tract between the two roads , and
expected to bo hero several days ,
said he : "Tho Unloi , Pacific was vervimx-
ous n few months ago to get tlio Hock Island
nnd Milwaukee to enter into this agreement.
nnAI
AI that tlmo wo wcro about to go ahead with
the Nebraska Central bridge , a charter hav
ing been granted for that purpose. Had it
not been for this contract , that bridge would
now have oeon under way , and although wo
would not yet have been in Omaha , such a
condition of things would not be far distant.
COTl
Tbo Union Pncillc claims that this contract
13hn not legal , and that Charles Francis Adams
had no authority to sign It , but It strikes mo
that a contract prepared by the legal depart
ment of the Union Pacific In connection with
our own , titles ted by their secretary and ap
proved by their board of directors , comes
pretty near being legal and binding.
Of course , wo did not expect to bo allowed to
cross today , after seeing how the Milwaukee
has been treated , but wo made the attempt.
The aid of the courts has not yet been in
voiced by us , but I can't toll how soon It will
he I sco. it is claimed that the
interests of Mr. Ciiilod In the Mis
souri Pacillo are attributed to bo the cause of
this recent action , but I think that
itth is because ho wants to keep the bridge hero
the toll gate it ha * always been. Wo do not
propose to take any bridge building steps to
get into Omaha as long ns wo hove tills con
tract. [ J The Union Pacific is worrying about
tlio government's Interests in this case , but
the government does not seem to
be worrying any about tbo situation.
ItS is claimed that ono of the
government directors of the Union Pacific Is
in favor of abrogating the contract , but it is
a noticeable fact that hu did not take that
stand until after Mr. Gould bad declared
himself. Wo merely want what rightly is
our dues. We have this contract properly
made and signed , and wo shall endeavor to
have iho terms complied with. "
Invention ol' 1'oplin.
The original invention in poplin i
ultiinicil by Avignon , Franco , once si
papal sec , on whieli account it wns
called papulino , in compliment of the
reitrning- pope , at which tiino ( the fif
teenth century ) this rich material was
produced to supply the fjorgpous oeclosi-
asticnl vestments and htinriiigs | in use ,
snyH the Dry Goods Chronicle. The in
dustry waa introduced into Dublin by
French iminifjrantH , refugees , ut the
time of the revocation of the edict of
Niintes , who Bottled in that part of the
Irish capital willed the "Liberties. "
The La Toucho family established the
first orfruiilzcd manufactory there , which
commenced operations in 1093.
AMVUKJIKXTS.
So much has been written In praise and so
much in condemnation of tbo now famous
"Clemenccau Case" that the theatre goers of
Omaha , piqued by curiosity and on the qui
vivo for anything salacious , crowded the
Grand opera house last evening almost to
suffocation.
The "Cleinenccnu Caso" was the attrac
tion and it was its prcmiero presentation
hero.
But the hundreds of people who were at
tracted thither by u gnawing desire to gratify
their morbid tastes were loudest in praise of
ono of the strongest dramas which has boon
given on the local boards this season. The
oft-advertised studio scene proved to bo only
one circumstance of n series of dram
atic climaxes which received enthusiastic
treatment at the hands of the audience.
Tlio first two nets of the draira are very
weak and uninteresting. Yet they servo to
show a germ that by process of de
velopment is to become a force nnd
u power later on that brings ruin
to t whatever it comes in contact with.
H I shows n young soul already steeped In an
egotism almost sublime , and it is that love of
self , that over-weaning desire for flattery ,
which brings death to Iza at the hands of her
husband , Pierre Cleinenccnu.
llV The germinating period of Iza's llfo ,
which covers the lirst two acts , might have
been 1 pictured better by an ingenue ,
but In portraying the thrilling ,
sensational climaxes which follow ,
nn [ 1 actress of far moro than ordinary ability
is 1 : required , nnd Miss Sibyl Johnstono
completely fills the requirements of
the exocting role. She Is tall , shapely
and very graceful , and ttio possessor
ser of beautiful brown eyes , which
do qulto half of the talking. They ore truly
the "windows of her soul. " Her Iza Is n
creature bred to self-worship ; loving her hus
band as much as such a wanton cacaturo
could , while using other men ns her bankers.
It is the Iza of Dumas , no more ,
no less , and above It shines out the
art of the actress who has Introduced
this modern Circe to the stage.
. Mr. Clustavo Lovick , ono of the best load-
ine men on the stage , played Plerro In a
praiseworthy manner. Not excellent in love
making or manifestation of tenderness , but
strong In passion and effectively dramatic at
the climax.
Mr. Charles Kent has as strong ,
if not a stronger character .than
Pierre , in Constantine Illtz ,
who is the friend of Clemenccau , the traveled
man of the -world , true philosopher and sol
dier. Ho diagnoses Iza In this wise , which
will show you tlio manner of man hu Is :
