An innocent bird Irom the country came
into the city some days into nnd had quite nn
oxK'rlenco | with sharpers before ho was al
lowed to KO back home , llo gave his nnmo
09 A. C. Conger and said holmlkd from DC-
cntur county , Kansas. About ten days ngo
ho took a team of horses and started for
"Waterloo , Neb. , for the purpose of dis
posing of the team , hoping to realize
more from the tc.im than If ho sold it at
homo. When ho arrived at Waterloo ho
found tlmt there was no demand for horses ,
nnd decided , on the advice of u friend , to go
to Omaha. There ho came across a smooth
looking individual who showed the country
man a couple of patent horse-clippers , whlth
completely took the hitter's eye , and after a
while offered to give him the clippers In ex-
chance for till team. The team was a line
one , but Conifer must have the o clippers ,
and a bargain was entered Into In spitu of
everything.
In n day or two Conger came to this shlo
of the river , where ho bccamo acquainted
with Jay Ilorton , a bartender in nn Upper
llroadwav saloon , Ilorton also became
struck with the horse-clippers and offered to
give him a $200 note for them. Conper
jumped at the chance nnd the trade was
made. Charles Warner , who owns the sa
loon , entered the case at this juncture and
wanted to give Conger two $100 notes In ex
change for his ono note of $500. After some
dickering tills bargain \vas also mitdo and
ttio two notes , beat-in i : the sUnaturo of Li. II.
Drown , were transferred to the hands of the
verdant stranger.
Hoforo long .llinmio Mnhcr won the mnn's
confidence , by tolling him that he had some
slitori that bought no'tcs , but that tlicy
would want to sco the notes before they
would Invest , Ho wns sure that if ho would
lot him tnlto the p.ipers a llttlo while bo
could work un a sale whereby Conger
would get the face value on them.
So Manor wni allowed to take the
notes. When tie returned an hour latter it
was without the notes or the money. When
asked about it , ho replied that ho Had met n
friend to whom ho had showed the notes
with a view to finding out whether or not
they wore worth anything. His friend had
taken the notes , and nfter looking nt them ,
had remarked carelessly , "They're ' no good , "
and tort ) them up. IIo was sorry , of course ,
but didn't sco how ho could help it.
By this time It had begun to dawn upon
thu innocent ICnnsan that ho had been the
victim of a scheme which would have taken
in nobody but the greenest of greenhorns.
He hustled around and consulted a lawyer ,
and before lon papers were issued for the
arrest of .llinmio Manor on the charge of
cheating by false pretences.
Yesterday Mahcr was brought before Jus
tice 1'atton for a hearingIn the meantime
somctlilniihad happened , to Conger , and ho
was no where to bo found. Some ono said
that the last that was seen of him ho was in
the company of Mailer's ' friends nearly dead
drunk , IIo did not show up at nil , and
Mauer was discharged for want of prosecu
tion.

what his occupation was ho" replied that ho
sang for n living. "Well , " said the judge ,

That Itcvoklnj ; Ordinance.
The notion of the city council , in revoking
the charterer the Council Bluffs and Omaha
street railway company overall streets on
which they hnvo not now trains actually in
operation , caused no little stir among the
citizens yesterday. That the council would
dure to stand BO firmly atralnst that mighty
organization , which has heretofore had things
Just about as it pleased , had never been
dreamed of. As a general thing , however ,
the feeling over the matter scorned to be that
the move was in the right direction , especially
among the citizens who have been compelled
to try by law to recover the money which
they had paid for the paving of the street
between the tracks.
The members of the motor company claim
not to feel any anxiety over the action of the
council. Ono of them thus expressed his
views yesterday : "It makes no difference to
us what the council does ns long as they
don't do anything that hurts us any worse
than that docs. Why , they've ' no right to
pass any such ordinance us that. The supreme
premo court has ruled that a city ordinance
such as the ono under which wo built nnd
are operating our line takes the nature of n
contract , nnd when wo once go to work under
the contract and show by our actions tliat wo
mean to accept it , the contract becomes
binding nnd they can't como in and abro
gate it any tnoro than I can abrogate that
llttlo bill I owe at my tailor's. ' So you see
we can afford to lie back and laugh at the
city's ' lawmakers when they try to got the
better of us in any such way. "
One of the council who was in the lead in
favor of the passage of the ordinance spoke
ns follows ! "Ono of the causes that led to
Inst night's ' action was the overbearing way
In which we were treated when wo went be
fore the company to bog them to reduce tbo
faro across the river to 5 cents. They
showed very plainly that their motto was ,
take but never give. Our rovocal of their
right of way may never amount to anything
until the company wants to put down a new
branch , but just as soon ns ttioy do that , the
property owners will ralso a fuss , nnd before
they get through with it the question
whether or not wo have tlio right to pass
'such un ordinance will have to bo decided by
the supreme court. "

The Fountain cigar store in the Pacific
house was heavily damaged by fire last even
inij. A few moments before 7 o'clock Julius
Uneer , the Junior member of the firm of
Brown & Unger , who own the place , lighted
a largo swinging lamp in the rear room after
having taken it down nnd cleaned It. Ail in
stant after bo stepped away from it the
lamp foil , It contained nearly n gallon of
oil , ana this was quickly distributed over the
floor in a blazing sheet. Ho was compelled
to Ileo for his life. A number of people were
in the front part of thestoro , tmt.woro driven
out nnd in thirty seconds the two rooms were
filled with flame and smoko. The tire de
partment suppressed tlio llaines before they
broke through the surrounding walls and
confined the damage entirely to the
cigar storo. All the stock In the
rear room , which had boon packed
for transfer to the now stand
next to the now Orand hotel , was completely
destroyed , together with everything else in
the room. Tlio stock , showcases and other
fixtures in the front room were severely dnm

A queer looking couple wended their \yay
wearily up the stairs of the Everrott block a
day or two ago in search of the matrimonial
parlors of Justice Cones. They displayed
none of the embarrassment tliut young people
ple are usually supposed to have when bsnt
on similar errands , and it way very ovldont
they had both boon there boforo. After the
Justice had sain the fateful words ttiat were
to make thorn ono for bettor or worse , tlio
usual ' legal formality had to bo gone through
with' , of filling out a blank form
stating the name , age , nationality , etc. ,
of the parties , and asking a great
many more questions which are commonly
supposed to have been invented for the pur
pose of Impressing it upon the youthfu
couple that the Justice has had to work hard
to earn that ? - . When the groom , who was
a little , weazened chap of about n hundred
pounds weight , was n ked whether tils
wlfo was on American , ho gave a look full
of pride at the feniinhio form that stood tow
ering above his head in massive proportions.
and then , looking with ill-concealed disgust
nt tlie questioner , ho replied , "Wall , I gucs :
not ; sho's n MIssourian. "

otno on the early trains. Presl-
ent M. L. Vanllorn of Denver ,
Innager Dave Howe of Lincoln nnd Direc-
or Ullletto of Milwaukee are already on hand
nd awaiting reinforcements. The prevail-
: ig opinion seems to bo that the alleged cle-
Iroof certain Western association inoDibcrs
o reorganize their circuit is erroneous. The
nly possible weak sister is Sioux City. Its
lackers held u meeting on Tuesday nnd
guaranteed sound backing. A dispatch resolved -
solved tonight stales that representatives of
, ho club will attend the meeting with $1,000
n cash to mil up us a guarantee that the club
rVill play through the season.
The ofllclnls who are hero today agreed
hut if the lown club showed evidence of
ts ability to last through the season
ts franchise would not bo Jeopardized ,
[ t was said that the association's plan pro
posed a transfer of Dave Uowo and the en tire
jlncolu club to Grand Hnpids. Kowo said
'Mo" ' emphatically , today. IIo would not
move to Mlehlgan and considered Lincoln a

A Orent Day at Liberty.
LmiiitTV , Neb. , Feb. II. rspeclal Tele
gram to TUB BKI : . ] Saturday wai a day
long to bo remembered in Liberty. Two
church rows nnd a mill botwcen two of the
fulr sex were the events. Itov. J , T. Burton ,
a Chmtinu minister , whoso residence is Lin
coln , Nob. , held a series of meetings hero last
fnll which came to a close in a way In which re
vivals Uo not usually end. A young miss , n
member of the church , admitted to her
brother that tlie reverend gentleman had In
sulted her , whereupon the brother pro
ceed cd to tlio place of worship ,
and nfter the benediction had been
pronounced , pounced upon the minister
nnd lu the llrst round put hlrn to sleep. An
investigation wns begun by the church ofll-
clals , but before It wns completed Mr. Burton
had disappeared and tlio inquiry was dropped ,
not , however , before another young lady ,
also a member of the church , had admitted
of receiving an insult fioin the snmo
divine , Now this lady has a brother nlso ,
largo and brawny , whosought revenge. Mr.
llurton came back Saturday afternoon and
200 persons were nt tlio depot ready to receive -
ceivo him. As ho stopped upon the
platform ho was collatvd by the nforc-
sald brother and threatened with immediate
desoruction. Men throw thnlr coats , some
taking the minister's part , but those were
few in number. Some blpws were struck ,
but the minister succeeded in getting Into
the depot and into the agent's private olllco ,
where ho was safe from further violence.
Monday ho had three of the parties arrested for
creating n riot , hut not being able to put up u
bond for costs , tlio proceedingsworoquoshcd.
IIo spoke nt the church last iiightand again
tonight.
'Tho other affair took place at the Baptist
church. IJov. P. Bolinger , an old resident of
the community , was assaulted by a man by
tlio name of fCeck. The trouble grow out of
n misunderstanding concerning some flax.
Keck was arrested and fined. The day
closed with a knock-out between Uo sisters.

AVASUIINOTOX , D. C. , Feb. II.
The farmers' alliance , having had so much
success in upsetting the politics in various
states , now propose to move on Canada nnd
taken hand in the coming struggle In the
Dominion. Delegate Cole , who represented
Michigan lu the recent gathering of alliance
magnates ' hero'bus , Just returned west by
way of 'Niagara Falls , nt which point ho will
branch off Into Canada uml begin organizing
alliance bodies. This inovo is In response to
requests which have been coming Into the
alliance ofllclals hero from farmers and fann
ers' organization * through Ontario. The
Canadian farmers have county organiza
tions for social and lltor.iry purpoios. bu t
they exert little inlluonco In politics. The
alliance proposes to take up tuoso partially
organized bodiesand have them exert political
Influence similar to that of the alllanco on
this side of the border. Tlioro Is scant time
for getting into the coming parliamentary
struggle , but every effort possible will bo
made In that direction , anil outside this tlio
nlllanco will equip Itself for future political
work In the Dominion. The Canadian farm
ers are strongly In favor of reciprocity , and
the action of the nlllanco will bo directed
largely towards securing trade relation be
twcen the United States and Canada. It is I
thought that united political action by the
Canadian farmers in favor of reciprocity will
accomplish the overthrow of Sir John Mnc-
donald and his tory adherents , wlio long
have pursued a policy hostile to the United
States.
M'XUI.TA KOH TUB IXTKIISTATE COMMISSION' .
General AleNulta of Illinois has boon hero
for some tlmo , ostensibly for the purpose of
representing the Yaudorbilt roads In the
Canadian railway problem , but u gentleman
well Informed on interstate commcrca mat
ters said that It was quitn probable that Gen-
end McNultn's visit would prove to bo on nn
entirely different anil much inoro Important
mission. It , is believed that ho will bo
named as one of the interstate commerce
commissioners , either to succeed .ludgo
Thomas M. Cooley of Michigan , or to fill the
vacancy now existing on the commission ,
Judge Cooley has boot ) at his homo in Ann
Arbor , Mich. , for the last three mouths , con-
lined to the house most of the tlmo with sick
ness. Those who are most ininillur with his
condition say that bo will never bo able
to return to the duties of the commission mid -f
that his retirement is only a question of a
short time. This leaves Commissioners
Bragg , Vcasey and Morrison to bear the
brunt of the work.of a commission intended
to have five members. Two of these com
missioners are democrats and ono republican.
Tlio appointments to the vacancy and to this
succcssorship of Cooley will therefore bo re
publicans In order that President Harrison
may irlvo the board n republican majority , to
which it is properly entitled under a repub
lican administration. CJoneral McNclta's
polities aud his wide experience In railroad
affairs therefore make him particularly avail
able for the commission , The only objection
would bo that Commissioner Morrison
also hails from Illinois , but this Is
not regarded ns a serious obstacle. It
would bo largely offset by the
fact that the general's position as consulting
counsel of the Ymidcrbllt lines brine hi.n in
direct nnd cordial association with Chaimcey
Dopow , president of the Vniidorbllt system.
Mr. Dopcw's Influence at the white house is
well understood , nnd it is this fact mainly
which has led to the expectation that General
McNulta may bo tendered a position on tbo
commission at no distant date.
SILVfill HKPtMIMOtNS WAST A CAUCUS.
The sliver republicans In the house nro
making determined efforts to hnvo n caucus
of the party called on the silver issue. They
have failed to Induce the house committee on
coiaago , weight * and measures to consider
the compromise measure llmitlngfroe coinage
to the American product , and are now trylmt
to get the party to consider it in caucus. Up
to a late hour they have not succeeded ,
for the majority of the republicans under
stand that President Harrison will veto every
free silver bill of any kind , and they therefore -
fore consider it entirely useless to caucus on
the subject. The efforts of the silver men
are heartily seconded by the silver senators ,
who all day long were dispatching messen
gers aud messages to such men in the bouso
as they thought could bo influenced , if a
caucus should bo called the silver men will
endeavor to have the compromise American
silver bill adopted as a party measure.
"Tlioro may bo a caucus , " says Mr. Me-
Comas of Maryland. ' 'If the silver men
obtain the signatures needed a caucus must
be called of course , aud the rest of us will1
then bo compelled to attend to prevent snap
action from being taken bv that caucus. "
Congressman Anderson of Kansas , a free
silver republican , said of the situation today ;
"I understand that unless the coinage com
mittee reports within a very few days Mr.
Bland will move to discharge that committee
from thu further consideration of the bill.
Mr. Heed will rtilo him out ot order and ho
will appeal. I am Informed on excellent au
thority tbat a largo number of eastern demo
crats who have hlthcrfo been and are still op
posed to free silver will vote with IJland
hereafter. The party leaders nro anxious to
have this congress pass a free silver bill to
save Mr. Cleveland , and they have given the
order that Mr. Hhmd shall bo obeyed. I am
n free coinage man , but with a number of re
publicans who want frea silver I am not pull
ing Cleveland chestnuts out of the lire , and
wo will vote against the appeal. "
LOOKS i.ni ; :
Thcro is an impression tonight which ap
pears to have a very ilrm foundation In
ofllcial circles that ox-Governor Charles Vos-
tor of Ohio will bo appointed to the vacant
secretaryship of tlio treasury. The president
has consulted tbo Ohio delegation in congress
and has received expressions from thu le.id-
ing republicans In the state , and Foster ap
pears to bo so well recommended and so
thoroughly equipped and so well fitted for
the place tlmt it is probabla he will bo asked
into the cabinet.
A STATOir.NT ntOM KOIKE V.
Representative Dorsoy of Nebraska today
voluntarily went before the housa committed
investigating the alloyed silver pool and paid
his respects to J. A. Owenby , the Chicago
witness who said the other day In
nu interview that n Nebraska eongressmin
had offered Him V-fXK ) not to testify
against so and so before the committee. Mr.
lor.suy ) said lie never saw Owcuby to know
him but onav and that was when ho was
under arrest and in charge of the sergcant-
nt-arms of the houso. IIo went Into the
ofllco of the sorffeant-at-arms to look at
Ovvonby simply to satisfy Ids curiosity. IIo
never talked with Owouby auywhero or any .
tlmo about silver or anything olsi' , ami if
Owenby intended to convoy the Idea that ho
( Horsey ) hnd approached him in reference to
testifying before the committee ho was a liar ,
pure and simple , an ordinary liar , too. Mr.
Uorsoy reiterated that ho had never bought
an our.co of silver bullion in his llfo
or had an option upon it and bad no.
Interest in any form In the silver1speculation. .
Ilo'stated further that ho bclloved this nil to
apply and bo into of both his colleagues ,
Messrs. Council and Laws. Uoth of the lat
ter gentlemen make tbo snnio statement.
Witnesses are being summoned by the com
mittee to Impeach Owenby ns u witness.
Several senators , representatives and private
citizens will testify. It appears that Owenby
Is very visionary and Is constantly building
alrcustlos. Ileroprusonted whllo hero that
ho broke the North Hivorbankof Now York

Institution was ti-yln ? to "bull" upon the

1. It will euro a severe cold in loss tlmo
than any other treatment.
U. It does not suppress a cough or cold ; but
loosens and relieves it ,
8. It relieves the lungs , which is of great
Importuned In treating a cold.
I. It is the only remedy that will cause the
expulsion of mucus from the air cells of the
lungs ,
5. it renders thn mucus less tenacious nnd
easier to expectorate.
0. If freely used as soon ns the first svm | > -
toms appear , it will euro a severe cold in n
single day.
7. It will prevent croup and avert nil dan-
per and anxiety arising from that dreaded
disease.
8. It has cured thotisnnds of cases of
croup , and careful inquiry fails to discover
a siiido case in which it has over failed.
ii. It docs not contain opium , chloroform ,
nor any other Injurious substance. There is
not the least danger hi giving It to children ,
