bouse , closed a very successful engagement
last evening In the presence of a largo

as n rule , degenerated Into very indifferent

and laughable musical skit us "Tho Turkish
Bnth. " Marie Heath , who is the soubrette ,
has no superior in child roles on the stare.
Mr. T. W. Eckort , late roU'ning tenor of the

ono of the strongest force comedies on the
boards and has easily the best musical artists.

HE LOVED CHRISTIE DEARLY ,
Almy'a Wild Demotion Caused Him to
dcr His Sweetheart.
HIS FIRST SHOT WAS AfcciDENTAL ,
Then Ho Put Two Moro nullctn Into
Vltlm's llonO to Kcon Her From
A Sickly
Story.
Hxsovnii , N. H. , Aug. 22. Mr. Fuller toll *
the story of his Interview with Almy , the
murderer of Christie Warden , when Almy
called him to the haymow where ho was con
cealed. As soon ns Almy snw Fuller ho said :
"Thank God , 1 have an opportunity to
speak to a friend. I have boon hunted nnd
haunted for weeks. I have never known
what It was to have a minute's rest In that
time. Everybody has been agnlnst mo and
now I am cornered and held line a wild boast.
Death Is my last recourse. I am going to
shoot myself. "
Ho placed 0110 of the revolvers to his head
and was ubout to pull the trigger , when Mr.
Fuller cried : "Don't do that. Frank. " This
scorned to have a quieting effect and Almy
dropped the weapon. Ho continued :
" 1 shot poor Christie , although as God Is
my Judge , I did not Intend to kill her. I
loved her dearly , and without her llfo has no
charms for mo. A prouder , better or nobler
girl never llvod than sho. Even now , not
knowing xvhother I shall live Hvo minutes ,
were I to hear the breath of suspicion raised
against her name or memory , If I could I
would shoot the person uttering it as I would
kill a dog. "
"But. Frank , " said Fuller , "you did kill
her , did you not } "
"Yes , I did , " said Almy , "and I have suf
fered untold misery ovnr slnco I did not In
tend to kill her when 1 seized nnd took her
Into the Hold. My only purpose was to got
nn opportunity to talk with her. I watched
and waited for the chance for weeks and be
came desperate. Try as would , and did , I
could not resist the temptation to resort to
desperate moatfs to see her , as I bccamo sat
isfied that was the only way in which my
uncontrollable desire to speak with her again
and to once moro hoar the volco that had become -
como to mo the sweetest in the world , could
bo gratified.
"Upon that fatal Friday night I wont to
Hanover aud about 0 o'clocit started out to
ward the Warden place : A short tnstnnco
outsiclo the village I overtook n young lady
and gentleman talking. I thought the lady
was Christie. Had it been 1 tear I should
bavo done something awful to hercotopauiou.
Finding I was mistaken , I secreted myself
besldo tbo road. 1 had not 'long to wait
When Christie came along with her compan
ions I grabbed nnd carried her through the
bars into the Hold. In carrying her sno of
fered so much resistance that in h6r strug
gles she fell to the ground. I then soizoc
her by tbo ankle , nnd as I had -my revolver
lu my hand it was discharged.
"Tho shooting was an accident. I did not
moan to shoot or In any way injure hor.
When I found what I had done I shot her
twice in the head , as I could not bear to
think that she would suffer. My only
thought then was to put her beyond nil reacn
of suffering. After I saw that I had klllec
her I made ray way to Warden's barn , in
which I have been concealed slnco the night
of the shooting. While I lay there I saw
them carry tbo body into tho' houso. I also
viewed the funeral cortege as it carried
nway all that was mortal of my beloved
Christie.
"I loved Christie as only a man can love a
woman , nnd I brliovo she cured ' formo.
Mind , I don't claim that'wo were engaged ,
but I do say that she led mo to bollovo that I
might some day hope to call her my wlfo bv
allowing mo to kiss her. She appeared
pleased with the attentions I "showed lior.
It was my fondest hope to bo able some day
to call her my wife. " "
"Frank , " said Fuller'tell roo'whoro you
came from that last tlmo you came bora , and
where you kept yourself since that morning
your former acquaintance saw you. " , T
"I came from Salem , Mass. , direct to Han
over early in Juno , and from that time to the
night I shot Christie I soclodod myself In
the Warden barn and In the woods. "
"Have you a mother llvingj"
"Yes , I have , but I don't want to tell you
where she is. I'd rather not have hor'knovv
of tlio awful deed I hnvo committed. May I
ask ono favor of you , Mr. Fuller ! " .
"Certainly. " was the reply ,
"Woll , 1 have hero n gold. rlng. which
Christie wished upon my finger. "I 'havo
Frized it highly nnd have even worshiped It.
cannot wear it lone. 1 wish you weld take
nnd keep It In memory of my dond love. "
Ho then handed Puller a plain gpldrlng ,
which Fuller assured him ho would keep for
" *
him.
"Will you pleoso toll mo where they buried
Christiof"
On being Informed ho said : "Then If the
flowers I carried down nnd placed upon a
newly made grave were * laid above her body ,
I am glad to hear it. T picked them and stele
to her resting place nt night. It didmo so
much good to pay the tribute of love to her
memory. "
"Why have you not mndo some 'attempt to
escape from this place ? "
"Because 1 could not boar to leavo'hero.
Tuesday night I walked as far west as White
Uivor.Junction , but I had to rotyrn. I could
not bear to leave the homo of my Chrlstlo. "
"Frank , you had best surrender to the
officers , had you not ? "
"O , the crowd will kill mo If thov get a
chance at mo. "
"No , they willnot. . Solicitor Mitchell Is
hero and It would bo well for you to talk with
him. "
"It will do no good. I will kill myself
rather than birhlliod by a , mob , "
Ho placed ono of the revolvers to Ills head
again as If to shoot , but was prevented from
doing so by Air. Fuller. Altny.nlso gave Ful
ler n voluminous document written in pencil.
This is now in possession of the state author
ities , who refuse to divulge its contents , sav
ing that it vt ill bo hold for the trial. 'A good
deal of comment has boon oxcttod by the
paper , which is generally supposed to con
tain Almy's full confession. One of the of
ficials ivlio has seen it said today :
"I cannot tell you what it is'but you may
guess. I will say , however , that a great
many of Its statements seem to us to bo ridic
ulous falsehoods , " it Is believed Alray wrote
this conlosslon hi the barn upon foolscap
which ho had stolen from ono of the houses
ha entered for provisions. It Is not thought
that It throws any light upon his past history ,
Very .Miteli Appreciated.
Mr. G. F. Crandall , city salesman for the

vest Hold of human souls. I

winter may witness a great revival of godll
ness all along the lines of Christian work u
Omaha. There is need of that strong \vorl
of grace which builds up pure Christian so
doty by teaching men and women tbo grcn
lessons so beautifully Illustrated In the llfo
of the meek and lowly Naznrono.

Is rapidly passing nway > nnd , judging from
the great congregation of people who
thronged Mr. Lowry's lawn last Wednesday
night , It appeared that the people of Omaha
were determined to make the most of the
open air entertainments while they were lu
full bloom.
The Methodist hospital and deaconess

Omaha Is noticeable for ono thing , any
way , and that Is her very decided paucity of
dudes. She has plenty of handsome , well
dressed gentlemen , but a well dressed gen
tleman Is by no manner of tnor.ns essentially
a dude. Last summer , for Instance , the sash ,
very appropriate nnd very picturesque at the
seaside , was n fad much affected by thodudes
In thD Interior and western cities. But the
Omaha vegetable of this genius did not tnko
kindly to it. It was a little too much of n
good thing for the dear boy. Still there
were n few who adopted the affair , and it
was amusing to see how they doagod thor-
oughfnros where most congregate the small
boy , who has neither respect for position nor
consideration for fashion's softest idiots. The
caustic observation of the hoodlum
"git onto do bolly.band , " was a trillo
moro than Omaha's callow youth could
withstand , hence the sash was but little
worn. It might not bo amiss to add hero
that in the * lunrcr cities even the sasli was
principally affected by the $10-a-weok shop
clerks on a vacation , the fellahs who don
whito-auek over-gaiters in the winter time.
Thls'yoar the cirsinplo is tabooil , and Is worn
only bylhoso who'couldu't afford to got ono
when'they were in fashion nnd think that it's
bettor late than never.
Ttioro "is another disease , however , with
which Omaha's fresh young gentlemen nro
sorely nlllictod and which is even moro ag
gravating than dudeoloey. And that is the
ambition tn tfo thoucut tough and dead game
sports , It infects nil grades of society , from
the scions of wealthy families to the
adolescent offstioots of the canailo. They
have gotten the swagger of the fellow who
says , "Dis is wnoro I breaks his neck. See 1"
down line , as well ns tlio vernacular of the
habitues of the most disreputable joints. And
they practice both everywhere und upon all
occasions in the drawing room , in the soci
ety of the gentler sox as well as in tbo saloon
and upon the street. They smoke cigarettes
with a reckless prodigality , nnd sustain every
nrsumont at the rates of two ono. They
want to bo considered men of the world ,
blase"nnd tough , nnd they stand on tlio cor
ner and around the theatre lobbies nnd ogle
the ladies' ' and thmlr they look it , but they
don't. Oh my no , thoy'ro not tough ; nor dead

"If there Is one thing more than another
Omuhnns need being educated up to that ono
thing is how to ride a street car , " observed
an eastern man last evening , after having

"You don't hear so much nowadays , " said
a WQlJ known county official last evening , "as
vou did a vear or two since about Omaha's
ncomparablc pavements nnd handsome
drives. In fact those are two things that the
city has deteriorated in , thanks to jobbing
contractors and it scheming municipal Icgis-
aturev Especially is this true in so far as
our drives are concerned , for anything like
a decent drive does not exist within tbo city
Imlts. This Is not on account of the street
allways , cither , as many allege , but simply
> ocnuso of our varlgatod pavements. From
i baleen Omaha's streets probably resemble
ono huge mosaic ; with a stretch of granite

Overheard a very interesting conversation
on scare crows up in C , B. Mooro's grocery
ho other day. One of the clerks , John Stow-
nrJ.MillI think It was.had just finished nssist-
ng a farmer In with a load of apples , when
ho agriculturist uskod him if anybody about

ho store had nn old worn-out suit of 'clothes

vhnt ho wanted them for and ho said to
nuke a scarecrow.
"I don't know of any , " proceeded John ,
'but-wouldn't ' It bo cheaper to ninko u scarecrow -
crow out of one of your wife's old gownsf"
' A female scarecrow ! " Interjected the
armor , "did you over see ono1 ?
John couldn't recollect whether ho had
vor seen ono of that sox down about Boston
r not , but ho had seen plenty of females In
bo west who would scare a crow into a duck
fit at the first glance.
"Well , " continued the farmer , "I never
eed one , nnd no far as usin * one of my
vjfo's old worn out frocks , she nuver had
uoli a thing. She never wore ono out out

Mayor Cuntiing AVnntH 10 Adopt an

Mayor dishing Is In a dilemma over just
how the November election Is to bo con
ducted. The mayor hits no personal ox to

the other people nro going to manipulate the
nmchtno.
The Australian ballot law provides that the
election shall bo hold on the flrst Tuesday
alter the first Monday In November , nnd that
the state , county , city and board of education
elections shall DO hold on the same day. If
separata judges nnd clerks nro appointed to
preside over the ballot boxes , the county will
hnvo to appoint seven judges and
clerks for each precinct , the city
seven and tbo board of education
live , which will compose au nrmy of 1,018
men , as there nro olellty-two voting precincts
In the city , and as each judge and clerk will
receive $ ti for his day's labor , tholr hills alone
will amount to ? y , 5S. Another $10,000 will
bo added if separate booths and voting ma
chinery nro purchased.
Some weeks ngo the three attorneys repre
senting the bodlos were requested to moat
nnd confer upon the advisability of joining
forces nnd sharing expenses , but as yet thov
bavo done nothing.
The mayor Is becoming anxious , ns the
registrars must meet within n few weeks ,
nnd If no action is taken prior to that time
ho fears each body politic will have to foot
Its own bills.

House.It CrliMl nnd , Wai
Then Snnt to the
Hospital.
NR\V YOHK , Aug. 22 , A baby was born at
noon yesterday In the house at 14(100 ( Second
avomio. The mother was Mrs. Henrietta
Dooley nnd the mldwlfo was Mrs. Mendel
sohn ) . U was n precious small baby ami
mndo no stir , gave no ory upon Its advent
Into this big town. The mldwlfo looked Hover
ever carefully and said that the little thing
was dead , that It had boon stlll-bOrn.
Mother Dooley heard this with sadness.
Mldwlfo Mendelsohn tilled out the proper
certificate and the baby was wrapped up for
burial. The mldwlfo sold the baby should
go to the morguo. And so the father , Wll-
helm Doolen , took It there. Keeper Whlto
took cliargo of the little bundle , unfolded the
wraps , and laid the body on n cold , hard slab.
Ho was used to that sort of bustnoss nnd
thought nothing of the matter until the
father told how the baby was born before Its
tlmo , nnd how It had not any show to got n
fair start In llfo. Then the father , after
taking n last look at the baby that the mltl-
wlfo said had never had even n minute's llfo
In the world , turned and wont towards the
door to ire baclc to his wlfo.
llo had almost crossed the door stop when
n curious sound was heard. Morgue Keeper
Whlto had never before hoard such u sound
In the morgue. U was n baby's cry and
\ \ Into scarcely knew what to nuke of it. Ho
called Dooley nnd said :
"Hoar that ? Why. that's a babv's cry.
lour babv is not dead. Come and see "
Tlio father stopped to tlio slab with an as-
toumlod yet delighted look nnd shouted. Ho
saw the buby that the mldwlfo said had
never breathed move Itsllpi , ho hoard n good
cry come from thoao lips , lie saw the baby's
eyes open , he saw Its hands clutch , and you
may bo right sum that he shouted so that
the walls of the dead house rang with the
echoes of his oxultatlon. The baby dead )
Not n bit of it. The child w.is nllvo nil ever
and it was doing Its best to make everybody
comprehend that fact.
After assuring himself that the child was.
alive thu father hustled homo to astonish the
mother with the wonderful news. Morgue
Keeper Whlto did some tall hustling , too. Ho
wrapped the baby up nnd then trnvolloil with
mighty quick stops to Bellevue hospital and
surprised Dr. Schneider. That worthy fol
low was all sympathy and excitement nt
once. Ho took the Infant and wrapped It in
warm wool and placed it In n cot. Then ho
rushed oft to tap dispensary nnd got a mix
ture of two ounces of milk , six ounces of barley -
loy water , one drachm of whisky and half a
drachm of syrup. This stuff was warmed
nnd two drops given to the baby every few
minutes. It squenlod lustily for about an
hour nnd then quieted down !
This interesting youngster Is about nine
Inehos long and weighs ono nnd throo-quar-
tor pounds , or about eight pounds loss than
the aver.igo baby of its ago should weigh. Ho
has blue ovss , a perfect body and his heart
was boating strongly last night. But-thoro
is something , vrong with his breathing nnd
this circumstance induces the doctor to think
ho won't live long. This is very unfortun
ate , considering the pluck that ho has shown.
He breathes regularly lor about ton minutes
and then full respiration suddenly ceases.
This lusts from one to two minutes"and theu
the youngster starts off again the samu as
before. Every time the breathing stops the
doctor gives two drops of whisky diluted
with water nnd this acts us a rovlvor.
"This case Is the result , " said the doctor ,
"of allowing any woman who wishesto , become -
como a midwife to do so. I have very little
doubt that If this mldwlfo had known her
business the child would never have loft the
house. Any woman who wants to do so can
apply for nnd obtain n cortlflcuto nuthori/ing
her to practice midwifery. There ought to
be a stop put to it , "
