Time was when but two or three solf-constl
uted painters endeavored to teach the great
truths of art In Omaha , but the leavan bus
boon at work and the nursery of the old days
has given way to a school room of painting
which cannot fall to make ttiis young giani
of the northwest a force In American art.
The Impetus which Hon. Ueorgo W. Lin-
Inger and men of his stamp have given to art
matters cannot help but have an influence
for good , and in their collections of the olc
and modern masters , a glimpse of what is tc
be in the future Is aeon.
Omaha has 111:100 : glgantlo strides In hoi
material welfare in the past decade ; there arc
Justus potential forces at labor to brinp
about a like condition In its intellectual life ,
Artists wno represent the bbst , thought
and feeling of the modern school are being
attracted thither and Chicago , which bus for
years occupied an unrivalled supremacy in
the polite western world , sees in the grow
ing cities of the north and west candidates
for the position she has long occupied us the
hena font of western culture and rellneraont ,
and in this refinement all have played no
Inconsequential part.
Last full J. Laurie Wallace , with the
prosigo of an art education won in the besl
technical school in this country , the Phila
delphia academy of line arts , caine to Oinahn
to conduct a similar institution upon a loss
exalted basis , but still of sufllciont moment
to command the attention of artists and ar
pupils throughout the west.
A gentle , modest enthusiast , slow to spcali
of his own works , but with very decided
aims and opinions , based upon bis observa
tions and studies , Air. Wallace commanded
respect from his ndVer.t In our midst.
And ills only now that the nrt loving portion
tion of the community have h.id u subject
placed before them , painted by Mr. Wallace ,
of which tnoy could form an ostim ta of the
merit of the man who was looked up to us a
loader in his profession.
The subject which will command the closest
attention from the critic , the artist and the
art lover alike is now on display in the Lin-
inger gallery , a bust portrait of Onmnu's
best known and most enthusiastic art patron ,
Hon. Ueorgo W. Linlnger.
The artist shows in every line a knowl
edge of his subject which is refreshing. Ho
has painted it con amoru , und It is vor.v much
questioned whether there is in Omaha todav
u bettor bit of portrait painting by ono of thb
moderns , than this. The modelling and val
ues are good This is particularly apparent
in the muscles of the forehoid. its relief and
shiny , smooth skin , softened by a sheen
which gives u moistened aspect to the face ,
delightfully refreshing. The colors are
transparent and the whole ' has an atmosphere
which Is the joy of tho' student in painting.
There is a sketchiness about U , too , which
deserves more than a incro mention
on passant , especially in the manner
of wonting out the buo ! smok
ing jacket and skull cap which
the subject wore during the sittings. There
is a freshness too In its execution which
shows how conscientious the man has been
to arrive at the fountain head of all art , a
glorllled imagination coupled with a tech
nique which distinguishes the master from
the mountebank.
The background too is unconventional ,
the subject having been seated between the
folding doors which divides the parlor of the
Lininpcr house from the gallery , giving the
painter uu opportunity to work in the deep
embrasure of a window with daylight
streaming in , a problem always dllMcult of
solution and therefore not often attempted.
Taken in its entirety Mr , Wallace hns
shown himself deserving of being classed
among America's most eminent portrait
painters and an artist who cannot full to
reflect credit upon the city of his adoption.
But Mr. Wullaco cannot devote his time to
portrait painting entirely , fyr ho will assume ,
on September 1 , the position of director of
the Omaha academy of line arts , which has
at last been taken under the wing of the
Western Art association , an association In
every way capable of giving such a school
both financial and artistic encouragement.
And the ofllcers of the Western Art associ
ation will have tbo control over Uio affairs of
the academy of line arts as they do over the
older organization ,
The association Is ofllcered as follows :
President , Ueorgo W. Lililngor ; vice pres
ident , Charles S. Elguttor ; secretary , Mrs.
K U. Browkloy ; treasurer , II. A. Smith.
In membership the association numbers
300 , composed very lurcely of artists , al
though there uro u number of art lovers not
artists who have boon admitted to the "inner
court , " With this force back of the academy
failure hardly seems possible.
On September 1 the school will open its
season In the Williams buildln | > at the corner
of Fifteenth niul Dodge streets , which Is now
boiug fitted up for the use of the school , and
when finished It will bo ono of tno most com
plete itudlos In the countrv adopted for the
accommodation of large classes.
All the brunches of art taught In the Phila
delphia academy will bo taught hero , a Ufa
class will bo established , clay modeling will
Do taught , sketch classes will bo organized
and tbo school placed at once upon a high
plane.
When ono comes to consider the education
to bo received the prices fixed for tuition uro
very Insignificant. Ten dollars a month will
glvo a pupil all the benefits to bo derived
from an attendance on such a school. Five
dollars will adcilt a nupll to the studio two
evenings a week , and In addition glvo him
the association of Mr. Wallace during that
period.
The prospects of the school are very flat
tering already , nioro than ono hund'rod ar
tists and students having signified their do-
slro to bocoino Identified with a school pre

taken active steps to make himself useful.
Ho possesses a very warm and sympathetic
heart for lifting up the distressed and bur
dened classes. Every laboring man in
Omaha , who knows Hov. Mr. Williams , will
ngreo that the following scriptural quotation
will oxuotly tit his great character : "Blessed
are the peacemakers for they shall have
peace. "

Friday night a trio .of blchway robbers and

and burglary near Eighteenth and Jackson
streets , but in "each attempt their criminal
design was happily discovered.
About 12 o'clock Mr. Scbutz , who lives nt

scoundrels und overboard thorn maturing
plans to wuylav Waldomar Krag , the saloon
keeper at Ijjoi St. Mary's avenue , while on

Mr. Schutz Immediately sought n police

ho had left the footpads found they had dis

The same villains later visited tbo resi

Jackson aild Eighteenth streets , where they
attempted to force un entrance , but were
frightened away.
About ! 1 o'clock this morning they visited
the residence of F. S. Sherman , 83. ) South
Nineteenth street. That gentleman lay
awake upon his bed. Ho saw
the head of a person appearing through the
open shutters of ono of the windows and tljnt
was followed by a second and finally , by a
third head. Mr. Sherman felt the heads be
longed to burglars and hastily jumping out
of the bed , opened the blinds in the villains'
faces scattering them In dismay.
Ono of the follows fell off the porch and
aroused a neighboring inustlll from his slum

TormcA , Kan. , Aug. 15. [ Special to Tn
BEK : | The announcement that Ed. Short c
Oklahoma had publicly threatened to l
Judge Uotkin of the Thirty-second Judicii
district In the event that ho attempted t
preside nt the trial of James Bronnai
charged with killing Colonel Sam Woods r
Hugoton , Juno ' ) , has occasioned the tlrs
solicitude of Juilgo Botkln's friends for hi
safety. Prior to the threats made by Sheri
Judge Botkln had paid no attention to th
manyjiuioyuious letters ho bad received Hirer
toning his life or warning him of danger. I
thn the eastern half of the state , but few pec
plo bollovo that bo was In any way connccto
with the killing of Wood and the charges o
a conspiracy have bcon laughed nt. But a
open threat from Ed. Short moans n grca
doiil. Judge Botkln's statement that the funeral
oral procession would stretch from Topok
to No Man's Land If n hair of his bead wu
Injured was made upon recelv
ing tbo news that Short hue
threatened his life. The ontlawr
in southwestern Kansas tells the story'of Ei
Short. Sam Wood wasindlssolubly counectei
with Its crowth , Its County seat lights and It
steals both largo and small Ed Short wa
his friend and lieutenant. Ho was bold litho
the days when lawlessness wa * supreme , am
when there cumo evidences of civilization hi
made for Oklahoma , where there was loss re
stralut and better opportunities for men whi
regard the revolver as judge and jury. Shor
is now n deputy United States marshal a
Kingfisher. Ho belongs to the Wooclsdali
faction in the Stevens county lights , and si
long as his crowd was largo enough to boll
Its own In a dotlant , dare devil way , ho re
malned with It. Short does not look a dos
pprndo. Ho is n typical western dandy
dresses in a dudish sort of fashion , is i
fcnthcr-weight with blade moustache urn
cold gray eyes and no rospocfor of persons
It is his boast that Mr. Colt has mudo bin
the equal of nnv man alive. Llko all dcspor
ate frontier characters , Short has drihci
from ono town to the other. His associatioi
with Sum Wood Is u peculiar story , illustrat
Ing'.bo character of both men and the cus
toms on the frontier. In lh0 Sain Wood es
tablished the town of Woodsdalo. Ho chosi
tor his town marshal , Sum Hoblnson , a fron
tier desperado , who had killed his man It
Kentucky and who had achieved a ropututlor
for so doing In n half-dozen western towns
Ho was given n lots \Voodsdalo and a hole
was built for him. Hobinson finally con
eluded to run for sheriff , but Wood wouic
not help him , and the two men quarrelled. I
was then that Hobinson loft \\oodsdale foi
Its nvul town of Hugoton , and tbo first step ;
were taiicn which lead to the murder ol
Sheriff Cross and posse in No-Man's Land ,
Hobinson promised tbo Hugoton people thai
if they would move his hotel from Woods ,
dale ho would bo their town marshal , and the
agreement was curried out. Wood knew
there woulu bo trouble , nnd the only man in
the entire west in his acquaintance who could
cope with Hobinson wus Short , who was at
that time in No-Man's-Lund. Ho was sent
for , nnd accepted the position of town
marshal of Woodsdalo. Hobinson hud not at
that time taken thoofllco as mnrshul of Hugo
ton and Wood concluded that ho would offer
an Insult to the rival town. Ho wont to
Hugoton nnd attempted to ruin the town
well. Sum Hobinson , although not
clothed with any legal authority ,
told Wood that ho must behave
and warned him to leave the town. Ho did
so , ana n fows- days Inter a warrant was
sworn out in Woodsdnlo for Hobmson's
arrest charging him with disturbing the
pence at a political meeting in Voorheos
township. The warrant was placed in
Short's hands and two deputies < vcro sworn
in to accompany him. Short rodn Into Hugo-
ton nndstopping Infrontof Robinson's hotel ,
called him to the door. "I've a warrant for
yourarrest"hosuidand drawing his revolver
fired at him without giving him tlmo to re
ply. Ho missed tire nnd Hobinson dodged
inside the door. Short then put spurs to his
horse and loft over the prairie for Woods
dnlo. The two men who had accompanied
him bad gene behind the hotel , thinking that
Hobinson would run in that direction , but as
he did not ho escaped unhurt. A mob then
collected in Hugoton to give chase , nnd the
kwo deputies , who hart driven across the
country in a buekbonrd , only escaped
by cutting their tugs and beating
a hasty retreat. Short subsequently
made another unsuccessful attempt
to nrrost Hobinson in No Man's land nt.d it
was while this oxcite-nont was on that the
posse led by Hobinson cumn upon Sheriff
( Iross nnd party and murdered them. Hobin
son after remaining in Hugoton for a short
while wont to Colorado , robbed a postofllco ,
and is now serving a soventcon-year term In
tbo penitentiary. Short returned to Woods-
dulo but loft when Oklahoma was opened.
Short was ono of the chief witnesses against
the Cross murderers nnd has been a bitter
enemy of Judge Botkln's over since that
memorable trial.
Judge Botltin will not attempt to preside at
tht ) trial of James Brcnnau. Ho has an
nounced , however , that ho will not hold court
under the shadow of n bayonet and will pro
test against the governor sending any militia
to Stevens county when the case is called in
September.

Injunction * In Courts ,
Judge Wakeloy hold court yesterday for
bo purpose ot banding down decisions and
loannir motions. A number of decisions la
inltnportaut casot wore rendered , after
vblch the Injunctions wore disposed of.
In the restraining order obtained by Dr.
Mercer to prevent the construction of tno
Homis park sowera continuance was granted
until Tuesday morning In order to allow the
plaintiff to make a supplemental showing.
In the case of llarnam against Douglas
county and tbo city of Omaha n permanent
Injunction was granted , Darnam owned
twenty-six acres of land In the northern part
of the city which was ascossod at S'Jrt.OOO.
On the hearing ha showed that tbo land win
assessed at several times Its actual value and
that the county commissioners had refused
to reduce the assessment.
The treasurer Is enjoined from collecting
the tax.
The case of the Omaha driving park asso
ciation ugainst the city of Omaha was ar
gued and taken under advisement. This is
a case In which the plaintiff served out a
temporary Injunction restraining the city
from changing the grade of Sherman avenue
between Fort and Commercial streets. Tbo
plaintiff alleges that the change of grade was
ordered without first securing a majority of
tliu foot frontage.
John H. Taylor nnd Lomcla flntiny have
brought suit against the county of Douglas
n.sking for damages. The plaintiffs are resi
dents of Waterloo precinct und allege that
their property has boon damaged , owing to
the county commissioners having ordered a
road located upon their lauds. Hauoy wants

enerally on t lie Improve On
Firm Continues to Advani'e.
The Impression has pained ground In
Omaha , as in cities nil over the country , that
business is almost nt n standstill und that the
stringency In the money market hns blocked
the wheels of trade to such tin extent that
nothing Is being done. Especially Is this true
of the retail trade and merchants on every
sulo are beard complaining of dull tr.ido und
slow collections ,
To such an extent is this true that the mer
chants huvo acquired n lugubrious tone and
appearance and It Is unusual to see one who
manilosts u Jovial spirit. It is not strange ,
therefore , that Tun Bni : man's attention was
attracted yesterday by the smiles which
wreathed the face of N. B. Falconer und the
apparently contented nppeuronco of that
gentleman.
Mr. Falconer was just coming out of his
store on Doticlas street near Fifteenth and n
glance inside sufficed to explain tbo cause of
the gentleman's apparent satisfaction with
nil the world. Every aisle in the spacious
store was thronged with customers , and the
largo force of clerks was kept busy supplyIng -
Ing their demands.
The first thing which attracted the eye
upon entering the store was the largo In
crease In space on the first lloor , the estab
lishment having Increased In size by tlio ad
dition of a store room on the west side ,
thereby mailing the first tloor GiixilW feet in
size. Tills now part is excellently lighted by
means of n lurgo .skylight and in'it are to bb
found the blnek and colored dross goods , an
extensive variety of silks nnd dross trim
mings. This entire space is occupied by
these goods and the well lighted room affords
the ladies an excellent opportunity for ejf-
nmlning both texture and color of the various
fabrics.
This now part of the store hns boon occu
pied for a week but no flaming announce
ment ot that fact had bcon mado. This
seemed strnngo and Mr. Falconer was sought
lor an explanation. Ho stated that he pre
ferred to udvertisu reduced prices and let the
people sco for themselves the many changes
and improvements which had been mado.
Tbo now addition wus opened Monday morn
ing , ho said , and had been thronged over
since.
"Wo ore reducing our stock , " said Mr.
Falconer , "and liuvo notified the public that
rock bottom prices would bo the rule. The
public has faith in our promises and , us a re
sult , wo have been doing a rushing business
all the week. "
A further investigation showed that the
centre ot the store was occupied by a lurgo
nnd well selected line of gouts' fuVni-shing
ladies' muslin underwear
goods , hosiery ,
wear and corsets , while on the cast
side were displayed a larco llni
of linens , flannels , blankets domestics ,
and wash dross goods of nil kinds. A largo
line of infants' clothing , including hand
somely embroidered robes and other para-
phorunlla calculated to rejoice the heart of
the young mother , occupied a conspicuous
place near the center of the store.
The millinery and draping department
have boon removed from the third to tbo
second lloor , thus placing all the retail de
partments on the tlrst two floors , while the
third will bo used as a stock room and a
wholesale department.
Tlio store presents a very handsome ap
pearance , being well ventilated and well
lighted , while the elegant fabrics forming a
part of the larco stock uro dliplayod in such
*
n way as to form an nrlistls decoration
which is enhanced by the grace nnd beauty
of the ncatlv attired salesladies whoso nim
ble fingers display to'tho best advantage the
rich goods.
P. A. Smith , secretary Patrick land com
pany , says : I speak from experience as I
was cured a year ape after four treatments.
I have found Dr. Blrney's electrical treat
ment for catarrh and hay fever a certain
